The Way of the National Teacher

Chu Li was indeed extremely exhausted from the long day of rushing, and he didn't open his eyes in a daze until a quarter of a day.Naturally, Shi Qi got up early and took the fence away.

"You didn't call me," Chu Li rubbed his eyes, "I slept too deeply, and I didn't even know I took away the iron bars." In the past, she and Shi Yan would both wake up in the morning to exercise at [-]:[-] a.m., wash up and warm up to go climbing , I was at the top of the mountain at about [-]:[-], and I could see the magnificent color of the rising sun breaking through the sky, and collect morning dew by the way.Chen Shi came back to make breakfast.

This has been the case for so many years.

She looked around, took the ladder and climbed up, but she still shivered when she touched the ground, "It's so cold, didn't it be a dream last night, it's really cold in spring." After a shock, she became more sober, even though she saw Shi Yan's bed curtains, it was already gone. It was open, and there was no one on the bed, but I still felt kind in my heart, so I couldn't help smiling, and went out to wash up.

However, just as she opened the door and walked outside, she suddenly stopped, Chu Li frowned, "...it's not cold..." She muttered, her pupils suddenly opened, her heart skipped a beat, and she turned to look at Shi Yan's bed.

She remembered that she didn't know if it was a dream last night, but she vaguely saw a layer of frost on the fence, which made her chilly.Just touching the ground, although it is not as cold as last night, it seems that the remaining cold is still there, and the tentacles are also cold for a while.Suddenly thinking of Shi Yan's cold syndrome, Chu Li immediately raised his heart in his throat, forced himself to suppress his emotions, clenched his fists and walked to Shi Yan's bed, reached out and touched the bedding, and heaved a sigh of relief—the bedding is warm.It's okay, it's okay, she let out a long breath, thinking that the stone cold syndrome was getting worse.Chu Li said to himself, "I'm really scaring myself. If the cold air reaches this level, Shi Yan's life may be in danger. It's impossible that there will be no clues at all."

And when she was taking a bath that day, she held Shi Yan in her arms. Although she also felt a faint chill emanating from Shi Yan's body, it was by no means to the extent that it was last night.Chu Li muttered, "Maybe I had a nightmare myself." He hesitated for a while before leaving, and touched the ground again. When his palm touched the soil, it was indeed still a little ice.Chu Li frowned, "What's going on here?" He looked at the Shizhen bed again worriedly, and sat on it this time, but there was still nothing strange.

After thinking for a long time, he shook his head, "Is it better if she is fine? Why do you always think something will happen to her?" Chu Li sighed softly, "It's really worrying."

She planned to go find Shi Yan after washing up.

But he didn't know that Shi Yan was already on the top of the mountain.It's just that there is another person - Wu Xi.

"Can you still hold on?" Wu Xi looked worried, only half of a thousand-year-old red ginseng was left in his hand, "This Emperor Song is really stingy, how could he save you with just such a thousand-year-old red ginseng."

Shi Kui's face was bloodless, there was a little frost on his eyelashes, and he was extremely weak, but he forced a smile, "This kind of medicine is hard to find, and Song Emperor only has this one. He is willing to part with it, and it is considered as merciful."

Wu Xi also lamented, "Ginseng is already the king of all herbs, and it is extremely rare, let alone red ginseng." After a pause, he became more and more depressed, "not to mention thousand-year-old red ginseng."

"Take care of yourself slowly, and you'll be fine." With ginseng slices in his mouth, Shi Yan sat cross-legged, holding his breath and meditating for a week before closing his posture.

Wu Xi's eyes were full of worry, "You are too anxious, there are not many thousand-year-old red ginseng left, and I'm afraid you won't be able to hold on without it in the future." She sighed again, "You should also have some sense of proportion, just for It would be too reckless to let Chu Li not discover the clue."

Shi Yan shook his head, "You don't know her. If Li'er knows, she might cause trouble."

"I think Chu Li is a very measured person."

Shi Yan smiled on his pale face, "It's rare for you to think so highly of her." After a pause, he lowered his voice and said quietly, "I hope that she will lose some sense of proportion when treating me, but I'm also afraid that she really has no sense of proportion. ,” He smiled wryly and shook his head, “I am confused.”

Wu Xi frowned, looked at her for a while and said, "I really don't understand. What is the meaning of love and love in the world? You are too paranoid to be obsessed with it. Besides, Chu Li is like this now, it is a good time. She Don't worry about anything, if you are willing to let go, she will be in a good place soon. Shi Yan—"

Shi Yan shook his head and looked into Wu Xi's eyes, "Wu Xi, I'm afraid that Li'er will become like you. You are really... scary."

Wu Xi's eyes moved slightly, but he was noncommittal.

"You seem to be good at everything, but in fact, you don't care about anything. You seek the way, cultivate immortality and escape from the world, and you don't care about everything you have, Wuxi," Shi Yan said, "I am a layman, I can't reach your realm, so I can't understand your thoughts. What exactly are you asking for? Has anyone seen it? You say that everything in this world is empty, you seek longevity, and you follow the way of ghosts. What do you want? How about longevity? How about attaining the Tao? If you live like this for thousands of years, what's the point?"

"To be with all things, to swim with the heaven and the earth. This kind of pleasure is really beyond the reach of the world." Wu Xi also sighed softly, "Shi Qi, why are you obsessed so deeply. For our Mo School, obeying the world It is the greatest joy to master the order and secrets of all things in this world.”

"It's just for fun," Shi Yan smiled, "We are all the same in essence, aren't we?"

Wu Xi paused, and said for a while, "The word love is the most deceptive. It confuses people's hearts and makes people fall into a maze that they can't extricate themselves from. Shi Yan, why are you bothering?"

"Sweet as sweet." Gently and slowly, but unquestionably, the simple and firm four words spit out from between Shi Yu's lips and teeth, causing Wu Xi to sigh again.

The two can't always agree on this.

"You are so cold, will Chu Li really not notice?"

"It's okay. Only Zishi can't hold back." Shi Yu said, "I've dealt with the bed and bedding, and Li'er can't find any clues."

"Not necessarily." Wu Xi pursed her lips, "Chu Li is very thorough, if she finds out, I'm afraid you will end up badly. Why don't you tell her?"

"If I tell her, she can tie me up." Shi Yan smiled helplessly, and said with his forehead, "It's all light."

Wu Xi was surprised.

"You've never seen her stubborn." Shi Yan felt lingering fear, remembering the scene when he couldn't push Chu Li away when he was young.At that time, Chu Li had already discovered the problem with her. Although he didn't say a word, it could be seen that the sky was tossing around in different ways.Shi Kui saw with her own eyes that she made alchemy all day long without paying attention, immersed in various medical books. The master asked her to make alchemy, and she just took this opportunity to refine various medicinal pills.Playing tricks to trick Shi Kui into eating, making Shi Kui wish he could disappear immediately when he saw what Chu Li gave him.

He also pulled her up from the bed at Yinshi every day to exercise.This is no problem, the key point is that Chuli has a lot of tricks, and the health preservation techniques taught by Cheng Gong have been modified by Chuli combined with Baibu Khan, just to adapt to Shizhen's physique.Shi Yan was really tossed by her one head and two big.

Fortunately, Shi Yan's body gradually improved, and Chu Li gradually subsided.

Thinking of Chu Li's eagerness to dismantle her and reassemble her, Shi Yan really broke out in a cold sweat.

Seeing that Shi Kui's mouth was dissatisfied, but his face was full of sweet smiles, Wu Xi pondered for a while before saying, "If that's the case, I'm afraid Chu Li will be crazy in the future." She looked into Shi Kui's eyes, " Then you have to think clearly, the cleaner Chu Li is now, the more he will suffer in the future. Are you really willing?"

The question made Shi Yan fall silent, his eyes full of struggles.

"It's precisely because I can't choose, that's why I don't know what to do with her."

She looked at the gradually reddening sky, the rising sun was like a golden wheel, breaking through the clouds and slowly shining on the earth.Reflected in Shi Yan's eyes, the confusion in her eyes became more and more serious.

After Chu Li finished washing, he was about to go up the mountain when he saw Princess Shanggu practicing sword.

"Qu Di, you also wake up so early." She was used to the new name of Princess Shanggu.

Qu Di smiled, "Every day."

While talking, the movements of his hands didn't stop.

Chu Li watched it for a while, then suddenly said, "Qu Di, how about you teach me Kung Fu?"

"Okay." Qu Di said as he shook his long sword, emitting a silver light, startling a group of flying birds, "What does the national teacher want to learn? Swords, guns, halberds, axes, hooks, whips, maces, etc. I know all the weapons."

"It's amazing!" Chu Li looked at Qu Di in amazement, tilted his head and thought for a while, "Let's learn something that doesn't hurt people."

Qu Di burst out laughing when he heard the words, and put the sword on her shoulder, "National Teacher, there is no weapon that does not hurt people."

"Hey hey——" Chu Li froze, "Be careful of hurting people——"

"Don't worry~" Qu Di raised his sword and danced again, showing a heroic posture with fluttering clothes, "The long sword is my palace—it is my best weapon."

The sword in her hand seemed to have a soul, and the trembling was full of scenery.A piece of silver light is shining like a tree of fire and silver flowers, extremely dazzling.When the sword was retracted, it happened that the sun broke through the sky, and the golden light shone down and reflected on the sword, suddenly shining brightly.The Princess Shanggu, shrouded in the morning light, is like the God of War in the Nine Heavens, both extraordinary and majestic and handsome.

Chu Li couldn't help admiring, "It's so beautiful!"

Qu Di blinked and leaned in front of her, "What's beautiful?"

Chu Li quickly took a step back, pointed at Chaoyang, "Jingmei, Jianmei."

"Aren't I beautiful?" Princess Shanggu forced a step forward, "Since the national teacher left the palace, he has gradually alienated me."

"The princess is naturally more beautiful." Chu Li hurriedly said, "I still have something to do, let's go first."

"Could it be that the national teacher is not afraid of Sister Shi, but afraid of me?" Princess Shanggu stopped her and moved closer, "What are you hiding?"

Chu Li's face turned red instantly, he pursed his lips for a long time, and suddenly asked, "Princess, do you like me?"

Princess Shanggu was taken aback for a moment, she didn't expect Chu Li to be so bold, she didn't answer and asked instead, "Then the national teacher is interested in me?"

"I...I..." Chu Li turned his head away, his face flushed, and it took him a long time to muster up the courage to say, "Princess, I don't like women..."
