The Way of the National Teacher

On the day of his birthday, there was no movement from Chu Li.

Shi Kui pursed his lips, but said to her, "Li'er, I have something to go out first." As soon as Chu Li came back, Shi Kui passed her by.

"What are you going to do?" Chu Li held her back, "I'll be with you."

Shi Yan shook his head and refused.He looked very determined.

Chu Li felt strange, but it was hard to stop her.I don't know what she did, and she didn't come back until evening.Chu Li waited anxiously, and couldn't care about anything else. As soon as Shi Yan came back, she dragged him to the place where the beautiful Qushui Liushang was.

It was dusk at this time, and the waterfall reflected a soft light.

Qu Di was setting up a banquet there with Gong Shuding. They sat on the ground, facing the green hills in the distance and backed by the flowing water.

Shi Kui was pulled by Chu Li to sit down, and with just one glance, he instantly understood what Chu Li had been doing for so long.

She was overwhelmed with surprise, and when she looked at Chu Li, her eyes were stained with crystal.

Chu Li and Qu Di exchanged glances, and Qu Di Yingying got up and stood by the river.However, Shi Kui saw that Gong Shuding had brought a Guqin to Chu Li, and when the qin started to move, Qu Dijian lifted up with the qin, and his clothes fluttered in the wind.

Chu Li's qin sound was fast and slow, and Qu Di followed the sound of the qin with his sword. Sometimes the sword was brilliant, and sometimes it was straight and orderly.After a while, the sound of Chu Li's piano became soft and cheerful, and Qu Di's long sword became light and agile.

This was already a beautiful scene, but at this moment, Chu Li's singing sounded.Chu Li's voice was not as clear and charming as that of Shi Yu's. She sang the tune with a dignified and heavy feeling. Her voice was slightly deep, but the words were clear and powerful.It is matched with Qudi's sword.

Hearing this, Shi Yan looked at her intently.Chu Li was embarrassed to look at her, so he could only stare at Qu Di who was dancing the sword.

At the end of the song and the dance break, Qu Di withdrew his sword and Chu Li pressed the string. The two of them got up at the same time. Gong Shuding and Zhu'er also raised their cups to Shi Kui, "Happy birthday~ every year has today, every year has today!"

Shi Yan was in a trance for a moment, as if he had returned to many, many years ago... At that time, every time it was her birthday, so many people raised their glasses to celebrate her birthday.Tears welled up in her eyes for a moment, but she took Qu Di's hand and said to Chu Li, "Li'er, also sing a birthday song for Princess Shanggu."

Qu Di was startled, and looked at Shi Qi in surprise.Shi Yan just smiled, and patted her hand tenderly.

Although Chu Li didn't know why, it was rare for Princess Shanggu to be willing to dance the sword for Shi Yan, so she stood up and said, "Qu Di celebrates her senior sister's birthday with a sword dance, so I will repay Qu Di with a whip dance." She took out the straw whip and said to Qu Di. Smiling, "The class is playing tricks, but I hope the princess will have fun."

So while humming a birthday song, he played with the grass whip slowly over and over again.Not only was it not as graceful as Qu Di's sword dance, but it made Qu Di laugh out loud because of his funny attitude, and almost fell into Shi Yan's arms from laughing.

Chu Li patted his head, feeling very embarrassed.Although he wanted to make them laugh, he didn't expect Qu Di to laugh so hard that even Shi Yan rolled his eyes.Even Gongshuding burst out laughing, and Zhu'er couldn't stop giggling.Chu Li couldn't help but ask, "Is it that bad?"

What answered her was more wanton laughter from several people.

Chu Li feigned anger, "Hey! I'm going to be angry!"

In the end, it was Shi Kui who waved at her, and Chu Li happened to go down the steps. Unexpectedly, before he sat next to Shi Kui, Shi Kui said with a smile, "What should I do, I still want to make you angry." Shi Yan was already lying in Chu Li's arms, laughing out loud.

Chu Li: ...

They laughed, chatted and made noises, accompanied by a few glasses of vegetarian wine, and drank with the beauty of the sunset, which was a joyous occasion.Xu Shi was in high spirits, and they all drank a few more glasses, and their faces were all flushed.After the sunset, I packed up and went back to the inn, but still didn't seem to have enough fun.It's just that Pearl is young and has gone to rest.The remaining four people had a good time drinking.They sat in the courtyard, talked and laughed, and soon night fell, just in time to enjoy the moon.

Qu Di had never been so happy, so he felt that the vegetarian wine was not enough, so he recruited Xiaoer to replace it with a high-quality Fen wine, and drank it with Gong Shuding.Chu Li and Shi Yan did not drink these wines.Sitting together with Chu Li and Shi Kui, seeing Qu Di and Gong Shu Ding obsessed with the high-quality Fen Liquor, it is hard to understand.Qu Di said, "Master and sister, why don't you come and have a try?"

Chu Li was about to move, but Shi Yan shook his head, "Alcohol is the worst thing to do. Just enjoy yourself."

Looking at Chu Li's expression, Qu Di smiled, and came over with a flagon in his footsteps a little unsteadily, "Do you want to taste it, the national teacher?"

Chu Li rolled his eyes and glanced at Shi Qi.Seeing her expression, Shi Yan said helplessly, "It doesn't matter if you try it."

Chu Li was overjoyed, and hurriedly filled the wine glass, took a sip, and felt the fragrance in the mouth but the pungentness did not go away. It was the first time for her to be stimulated by such a mild taste, and immediately stick out her tongue, looking very ridiculous.Shi Yan hurriedly supported her, and said angrily, "Let's touch your mouth first."

Chu Li stuck out his tongue, blushing on his face.Qu Di laughed, "Guoshi is so drunk, don't waste my wine." Then he got up and walked away, and went to drink with Gongshuding again.

Seeing that she was about to burst into tears, Shi Yan didn't know whether to laugh or cry.Chu Li's eyes were foggy, he looked at her, raised his glass, "You drink."

The remaining half of the cup was carried by Chu Li and sent into Shi Yan's mouth.Shi Yan was also overwhelmed with alcohol, and his face turned red.Chu Li laughed silly, "You too."

Shi Yan helped his forehead, got up and said, "It's getting late, it's time to go and rest."

Chu Li followed behind her, stepping on the moonlight, step by step.Shi Kui looked back at her, "You go well, and you're messing around again."

Chu Li stepped forward and put his arms around her waist, "Don't you want to enjoy the moon?" She tilted her head, "It's rare that today's weather is beautiful, otherwise it will always be rainy."

Beginning in March, it began to rain lightly.On and off, few sunny days.

Shi Yan looked up at the bright moon, "It's really rare." She looked up at the moon, but Chu Li looked at her.So the two sat down by the window and looked at the white jade plate quietly.

Not long after, Shi Qi became sleepy, rested with his hands on his forehead and closed his eyes.However, Chu Li's eyes had already moved from the moon to her body, and seeing the moonlight shining on Shi Yan's body, she was shrouded in a hazy light, adding a little charm.Chu Li couldn't help but get in front of her, staring at each other.In her heart, Shi Yan became more and more important, more and more important, so important that Chu Li finally began to realize her difference.She looked at her, her eyes moved to Shi Yan's lips, her heart skipped a beat for no reason.I just felt that those ruddy cherry lips seemed to have a huge magical power, which attracted her to bend down obsessively, and sneaked a light kiss on Shi Yu's lips.

Her expression gradually became solemn, solemn and deep.Touching the corner of Shi Yan's lips, sniffing her fragrance, Chu Li was a little lost.

She can hardly live without it.

Shi Yan's eyelashes trembled slightly, but he didn't open his eyes.It wasn't until Chu Li sighed melancholy, picked her up and placed her on the bed, that Shi Yan endured the throbbing in his heart and opened his eyes.

Chu Li smiled and said softly, "Go to sleep." Then he inserted the white jade hairpin that he got from the palace with his own hands, looked at it before accepting it, "Birthday gift."

Shi Yan held the jade hairpin and was about to speak, when suddenly there was a scream from outside, their expressions changed, they looked at each other, Chu Li said, "I'll go out and have a look."

Shi Yan was about to get up, but Chu Li stopped her, "It's time to see you, don't move. I'll be back in a while."

She left in a hurry.Seeing that Qu Di and Gong Shuding also looked serious, they were obviously startled by the voice.

"what happened?"

Most of the people in the inn were awakened, and Chu Li and the three left after hearing the sound.

The screams were intermittent, and when Chu Li and the others arrived, they saw a woman with disheveled hair, who seemed to be hiding from something terrible, screaming and running away.

"Why panic?" Qu Di stepped forward first and stopped the woman.When the woman saw Qu Di, she panicked and said, "Go, go!"

Chu Li followed immediately, and the woman shouted when she saw Chu Li, "Go! Go!"

"What's going on?" Gongshu Ding just said, the woman ran away in panic, Chu Li thought about it, and quickly asked Gongshu Ding to back up, and went up to support the woman, "Girl, what happened?"

Qu Di also said, "Don't be afraid, we will save you."

The woman shook her head in panic, "I can't save you, you can't save me... Hurry up, hurry up!"

Chu Li and Qu Di looked at each other, "Tell me what happened first?"

"Monsters... monsters cannibalize people... furnace cauldron..." The woman was obviously frightened and said something vaguely.

Qu Di said, "Don't be afraid, we will protect you." Together with Chu Li, they brought the woman back to the inn.

As soon as I went back, I saw Shi Yan standing at the door, holding the frightened Zhu'er in her arms, "What happened?"

Chu Li said, "Go to the room first." Then he took the woman back to the room.

Who knew that when the woman saw the people in the room, she suddenly burst into tears, "Hurry up, hurry up! Otherwise, you will be arrested too! Hurry up!"

"Okay, okay, let's go now." Chu Li comforted her, "You tell us what happened first, and then we will take you away, okay?"

The woman looked at Chu Li tremblingly, "Really?"

Chu Li nodded heavily.

"Monster! A monster who only eats women!" The woman looked horrified, "Many women have been captured and made into furnaces! Cannibals!"

"Stove cauldron?" Chu Li had heard it for the second time.

But he didn't realize that when she uttered this word, Shi Yan behind him was shocked, and his face instantly turned pale and bloodless.

Chu Li asked, "Is there a monster?"

The woman said, "Yes, yes, monster! Eat people! Eat women only! Make furnaces, harvest yin and nourish yang!"

They all didn't understand this, Chu Li only felt novelty when he heard her say it, and had never heard of it.She looked at Qu Di, and Qu Di also looked puzzled.Looking at Gongshuding again, he saw Gongshuding frowning tightly, as if he was thinking about something.When she turned around, she saw Shi Yan behind her. Seeing that Shi Yan's face was pale, she was startled, "Senior Sister, what's wrong with you? Have you suffered from cold again?"

Shi Yan tried his best to shake his head, "It's okay." His voice was a little weak.

But Gongshu Ding thought about it and said, "I seem to have heard of it."

For a moment, everyone's eyes turned to him, "It was originally a method of Taoist cultivation, just like the Fang | Zhong | technique of the Yellow Emperor's Internal Classic. But later, some evil spirits took shortcuts and specialized in cultivating the Kung Fu of Zhi Yang Zhi Gang, and then adopted women's yin The blood is reconciled for quick success. It seems that the furnace is divided into several levels... I can’t remember.”

Chu Li's face changed, "Fang | Zhong | Art?"

"Yes," Gongshu Ding replied, "but Xie Chong only regards women as vessels for cultivation, harvesting all their yin and then discarding them."

"..." Qu Di also lowered his voice, "Beast!"

"The way of the monster." Chu Li's face was gloomy, "The crime deserves death." She asked the woman, "Do you know where that monster is?"

The woman didn't answer, she just said, "You can't beat him, he knows magic tricks, run away quickly. If you don't run away, I will run away. I managed to escape."

When she got up, Chu Li saw her bruised and staggered.Chu Li grabbed her, "I can also do demon magic."

She learned some tricks from Sui Sui, and then changed into a random one. The woman was shocked, and said, "The monster has gone to Sanjue."
