The Way of the National Teacher

The next day we set off for the mountain.

Chu Li took Tuobadi and Zhu'er all the way, and Gongshu must have something to fail to come.As soon as they had completed their detour around the mountain road, they saw a young man in brocade clothes approaching with two attendants.She looks to be in her early twenties, with long and narrow eyes.At first glance, he looked gentle and gentle, but Chu Li glanced at him, and whispered to Tuoba Di, "Let's make room for a while, don't argue with him."

Tuoba Di frowned, and looked at Chu Li puzzled.This mountain road is narrow and cramped, but why should they make way?Even if Princess Tuobadi of Shanggu no longer bosses her around, she can't let her make way for others.

Chu Li looked at her expression, and said quietly, "This person has a very sinister spirit, and it would be bad if you argue with him. Now that you are seriously injured, I don't know martial arts, and Zhu'er has to take care of her, but that person Not only does the attendant have deep internal strength, but he may not be an idler himself. Let's avoid it."

Hearing that, Tuoba Di was secretly shocked, but it was not for other reasons. She was surprised when Chu Li only looked at him, how could she see so many things?One must know that Tuobadi himself was born as a Lianjiazi, although his inner strength is not deep, but his kung fu is considered to be above average.But she can only see that the three people who are coming towards them are stable, and they are just people practicing martial arts.But Chu Li, who doesn't know martial arts, can not only see the depth of other people's internal strength, but also see the character of youth, which makes Tuobadi not surprised.She paused and said deliberately, "How do you know? It's not just nonsense again, is it?"

Chu Li wrinkled his nose in dissatisfaction, "I can feel his anger. And I've never misjudged anyone."

Tuobadi's heart skipped a beat again, he hesitated and pretended to be casual and asked her with a smile, "Then what do you think of me?"

Chu Li glanced at her, curled his lips and said, "I can only feel the hostility, no matter how deep it is hidden, but other... can't see it."

Tuobadi breathed a sigh of relief, and said with a smile, "The national teacher is really a strange person."

They whispered, the young man was almost in front of him, Chu Li quickly pulled Tuobadi and Zhu'er aside.

The young man passed them by, but a cold light flashed in his eyes.

After they had gone far away, Chu Li breathed a sigh of relief, "There is still murderous intent." Turning his head and seeing Tuobadi frowning, looking thoughtful, he couldn't help asking, "What's wrong?"

"It looks familiar." Tuoba Di frowned and thought carefully, "But I can't remember where I saw it."

"It doesn't look like the people of the Great Wei Dynasty," Chu Li said, "but this place is close to the Southern Dynasty, so it's normal for the people to mix."

While they were talking and walking, Tuoba Di suddenly said, "I remembered!"

"Princess——no, Qu Di, do you really know him?" Chu Li asked strangely, "But he didn't look like he knew you just now."

Qu Di smiled, "I'm a female family member, so naturally he doesn't know me. But I recognize him." She squinted her eyes, "The eldest son of Song Emperor Liu Yilong of the Southern Dynasty, the current prince Liu Shao." After speaking, she looked suspiciously at The direction Liu Shao left, "What is he doing here? It's deserted."

He muttered again, "Could it be that they came to look for you too?"

"What are you looking for me for? I don't know him." Chu Li was also a little skeptical, "Looking at the direction he came from, he seemed to be going to Linshan. Could it be that Wu Xi knew him?" Thinking of this, he felt a little uncomfortable, "I'm afraid it's Wu Xi. His breath is somewhat similar to Wu Xi, Wu Xi is sinister, and he is gloomy and hostile."

"Who is Wu Xi?"

"Sui Sui's eldest sister." Chu Li said, "There is a mountain away from us. If you go around, you can find them to play with. Their name is Mo Zhuang, and they all have the surname Wu."

This short episode quickly passed, they were chatting all the way, Chu Li was telling the story of Baili Yanrong, and had already brought the two of them to the residence.

It's just that the mountain road is difficult to walk, so Chu Li held Zhu'er while pulling Qu Di from time to time.

From a distance, Shi Yan came out to meet him.She changed into rough sackcloth clothes and was washing clothes by the river. When Chu Li and the others came, she put down her rolled-up sleeves and walked over a few steps.

Qu Di looked at this woman who had listened to it countless times, and saw that she had beads of sweat on her forehead, a smile on her face, and her demeanor was really amiable.He looks like a commoner in rough clothes, but there is a sense of elegance in his speech and demeanor, which makes people feel like a spring breeze.He felt that the rough clothes on her didn't suit her at all.

"Miss Shi, you don't have to be polite, Qu Di doesn't dare to be her." It was a self-introduction.When Shi Kui turned to look at Zhu'er, Qu Di saw clearly the deep and long dark scar on her left cheek, looked at her inadvertently for a while, and suddenly his eyelids twitched.

Shi Yan looked back at her, "Sorry, I scared you." Then he reached out and touched the collar to cover the scar.He lowered his head and said to Zhu'er with a smile, "You are Zhu'er, right?"

Zhu'er was greatly relieved, she felt that this senior sister was really likable, and she didn't seem to put on airs at all.She nodded quickly, "Senior Sister, I am Zhu'er."

Shi Yan's eyes became more and more bent, "Good boy."

He held her hand and said to Qu Di, "Please, my girl."

They went in by themselves.

"Senior Sister!" Chu Li was unhappy, and stepped forward to grab her arm, "Why didn't you talk to me!"

"There are guests, so don't make trouble." Shi Yan shot her a look, "Greeting the guests well."

"But you just didn't say hello to me!" Chu Li was unhappy, pouted and glared at her.

Shi Yan looked at her with an unpredictable smile, and suddenly raised his hand to pinch her earlobe, making Chu Li shrink back, lest she use force.But she heard her gentle voice, "Go and hang the washed clothes." But the eyes were not as gentle as the voice. Chu Li saw her stern eyes, and didn't know how he had offended her, so he could only snort in dissatisfaction. Instead, go to the river to pick up clothes.

Shi Yan watched her leave, then turned to Qu Di and said, "Just kidding."

Qu Di's eyes flickered, and he replied with a smile, "Where are you talking?"

Welcoming them into the room, Shi Kui poured tea for her himself. After Zhu'er sat for a while, feeling uncomfortable, Shi Kui asked her to go to Chu Li.

Qu Di said, "I often hear the national teacher mention Miss Shi like thunder. I have long been looking forward to seeing you, and today I finally got my wish."

Shi Yan smiled gently, "Miss Qu, don't listen to Li'er's words, she definitely didn't speak well of me."

Qu Di shook his head, "I think the national teacher misses the girl all the time."

Shi Yan took a sip, and the corners of his lips curved imperceptibly, "Since Miss Qu is Li'er's friend, there is no need to be so polite. I am a little older than you, if you don't mind, you can call me sister too. "

He paused, moved his lips, and said after a while, "In that case, you don't have to be polite, sister, just call me by my first and last name."

"Then I'll call you Dier." Shi Yan blinked, "Do you mind?"

The corner of Qu Di's mouth twitched, he took a sip from the teacup, and said in a concealed manner, "Of course... I don't mind."

They were chatting, and Chu Li came back with Zhu'er.

As soon as Shi Yan took a sip from the teacup, Chu Li hurried over and snatched it from her hand, and drank it clean in one go.

Shi Yan's expression was not good, "You are drinking again, let you hang the clothes, are you drying yourself?"

Chu Li heaved a sigh of relief after drinking, opened his eyes wide and said, "霂霂——" Seeing Shi Qi's face getting more and more unkind, he coughed lightly and turned around, "Senior sister, I didn't expect Gongshu to find it by myself. "

"Gongshuo?" Shi Qi frowned.

Chu Li nodded hastily, "I just received Suisui's letter from Feige. Gong Shuding had already entered the mountain, but he met Prince Liu Song on the way—" Shi Qi shook his fingertips, and Chu Li paused again. Then he said, "I also met Qu Di when we came here, and it looks like he came from Wuxi." She raised her heart even more.Chu Li rolled his eyes, leaned over and asked her, "Senior sister, did the prince come to look for Wu Xi? How could Wu Xi have anything to do with the prince of Nanchao?" Is she the emperor's person?"

Before Shi Yan could speak, Qu Di frowned and said, "Save the emperor of the Southern Dynasty?"

"It's the story I told you on the way," Chu Li said, "I heard it from Baili Yanrong. I don't know if it's true or not. But I think it's unlikely to be true. Wu Xi is inherently feminine. If If I take that Bihai Hanchan empty-handed again, I'm afraid I'll lose my life. But when I saw her coming yesterday, her complexion was rosy and there was nothing unusual about it."

Shi Yan's heart trembled again and again, and Chu Li turned to ask her, "Senior Sister, have you heard that story? You have such a good relationship with Wu Xi, do you know about it?" His tone couldn't hide the excitement, It was as if the expedition had found a treasure.

"...I heard a little bit about it." Shi Yan lowered his eyes, and picked up the teacup in a concealed manner, but when he picked it up, he felt light, and remembered that Chu Li drank it all in one go.Chu Li took it over and filled it up for her, and said in a thief-like way, "Sister, you must know, right? This is really interesting. I didn't realize that Wuxi is so capable. Without the Fish Intestine Sword, she How did you get the Bihai Hanchan?"

"You also believe Baili Yanrong's words." Shi Yan calmed down and said calmly, "He only loves Hu Tianhai's exaggeration, how can there be such a strange thing."

"I think so too." Chu Li nodded in agreement, looked at Qudi and Zhu'er, and said to Shi Kui, "Senior sister, we don't have many rooms, so I'll sleep in yours at night, and let Qudi and Zhu'er sleep in my room , will it work?"

Shi Yan paused for a while, but refused, "It's not right."

"Huh——" Chu Liqi said, "What's wrong?" She looked at Shi Yan suspiciously, "Then what do you think should be done?"

Shi Kui didn't dare to say that his vitality was seriously injured, and his body was covered with frost every time, so he could only say, "You don't sleep honestly, disturbing my sleep."

This reason is too far-fetched, Chu Li said displeased, "Nonsense, when did I become dishonest, it's just that I was dishonest before going to bed, and fell asleep—"

"You still know when you're asleep?" Shi Yan cut off her words, "You sleep in my room, on the floor."

Chu Li: "..."
