Weak teacher strong apprentice

Si Mo never thought that she would still be alive, and it was already late at night when she woke up.The two conflicting qi scurrying through the meridians have been firmly sealed in the dantian.Although the body was a little tired, it was fine. This time, I was dragged back from the gate of hell by Keqing.

I didn't see Keqing, but standing in front of the bed was a handsome man in lake blue silk and satin. Seeing that she woke up, he hurriedly brought a bowl of soup from the table.

"Miss Si, please take medicine"

After taking the white jade bowl in his hand, he didn't drink the medicine, but sniffed it gently with the tip of his nose, and then handed it back, "Poria cocos and Angelica each have half more money."

Shaozheng was stunned for a while and laughed, "This is the medicine that the Patriarch personally dispensed, and there will be no mistakes."

"From a normal person's point of view, there is nothing wrong with Guben Peiyuan's prescription. But I'm weaker, and I'm afraid I'll vomit blood again after eating this."

Seeing that she refused to drink, Shaozheng finally decided to put down the medicine bowl. Just as he turned around and before he went out, a cold voice suddenly came from behind.

"Where is Keqing?"

"Who is Keqing?" Shaozheng was stunned for a moment before he suddenly realized, "Miss Si is talking about Xiaoru, she is still fainting due to the disorder of her internal Qi and anger."

Little Ru?Ye Ru, the only daughter of the head of the Nanyang family...

His fingers wrote Keqing's name stroke by stroke on the fringed silk fur.It can be disassembled and reassembled to be Ye. Qing and Ru have the same meaning, but Qing is Ye Ru.

Si Mo's face didn't show any overly surprised expression. He had already guessed that she was not a daughter that could be raised by an ordinary family, but her status was higher than he expected.

"I want to see Keqing"

"Master forbids you to leave this house"

After watching the man leave, Si Mo effortlessly lifted the quilt and supported the bed frame to stand up.Although Ye He has strong internal energy, judging from the prescription he just prescribed for himself, he is too rigid in medical books and doesn't know how to use medicine flexibly, so he is really worried about entrusting Keqing to him to treat him.

As soon as he opened the door, he heard a stern voice from outside, "Who allowed you to come out!"

The man was about 40 years old, wearing a jade crown, wearing a luxurious brocade robe, with eyebrows curved like lightning, big eyes and high nose, and he was full of dignity and dignity.Si Mo knew in her heart that this was the patriarch of the Nanyang family who had saved her and also Keqing's father—Ye He.

"Meet Senior Ye He"

Although he was his savior, Si Mo was annoyed that he made Ke Qing cry and kneel during the day, so he simply bowed to him.

Ye He looked at this indifferent woman who was neither humble nor overbearing, and a little surprise flashed in his heart.Seeing that she is young and sickly, unable to use her internal energy, why does her daughter worship her as a teacher?

"You are Xiaoru's master"

"Yes"

"The Nanyang family never saves people in the Jianghu, so I hope you can keep this matter secret."

"It's nature"

Ye He walked into the house and stood still, took out a stack of bank notes from his arms and put them on the table, turned around and stared at the pale woman in front of him.

"Xiao Ru will not leave Nanyang City again. I hope you will not claim that you are her master after you leave."

"I want to see Keqing"

"Her name is Ye Ru"

Si Mo's eyes didn't evade at all, she still had that icy look, and said every word firmly.

"Her name is Keqing"

The room fell silent, apart from her and her own daughter, there was no one else in the world who dared to talk to her like that.

"After seeing her, you will leave by yourself"

Si Mo's body was already weak, and she didn't have time to recuperate now, she felt dizzy after talking to him a few words, staggered back a few steps and leaned on the window sill, and when she got better, she still looked at him with a firm tone.

"That depends on what Keqing thinks"

"Her thoughts don't make sense, what can you do if I don't let her go"

The woman didn't speak any more, but took out one of the stacks of banknotes on the table, looked at it upside down with her head down.Ye He was very puzzled. Could it be that she thought the bank note was fake and was checking it?

Before he could figure out the reason, he suddenly watched her hand the bank note to the oil lamp again, and the flames that shot out burned the bank note to ashes, leaving only a wisp of white smoke.

"what do you mean"

The woman still didn't speak, but stretched out her hand, watching her fingers fall one by one, and finally clenched into a fist.It was only then that Ye He felt something was wrong with his body. The internal force in his dantian seemed to be firmly imprisoned by something, and the speed at which true qi circulated in his meridians was also greatly weakened.

Si Mo cupped his hands and bowed to him, "Senior, how offended you are!"

"How dare you poison me"

"This poison is harmless, and it will return to normal after half a cup of tea."

Ye He looked at the normal-looking person, and felt a little more fond of her in her heart. She was proving to herself that she could take Xiaoru and escape from the Ye family.

But... She is probably the only person in the Jianghu who can use poison under her nose without being noticed, and the poison effect is very strange, but she can be compared with the Five Poison Sect.

Thinking of this, I couldn't help thinking.In another month, I will set off for Gusu to meet the three great families of Boling Cui, Chen Liuxie, and Hedong Lu.Recently, there have been rumors in the Jianghu that the Five Poisons Sect may send people to investigate at that time. If someone who knows how to make and use drugs is with him, it will be safer.

"Little Ru, I will never allow her to leave again. Even if you are proficient in making drugs, it may not be easy to take her out of Nanyang City, which is heavily guarded by me..."

Si Mo understood Ye He's implication, and pushed the rest of the bank notes on the table to him, saying flatly, "I'll stay too."

"Go out the door and turn west, go around the pond and then pass through the bamboo forest, Xiaoru is in the second room on the east side of the bamboo forest"

Looking at the thin back of Si Mo leaving, Ye He's eyes became a little dignified.She is a smart person, although her body is weak, she has a strong mind, is good at forbearance, and is proficient in making poisons and medicines. It is a good choice for Xiao Ru to follow her.

But... such a person is also very scary.If one day she wants to plot against Xiaoru, I'm afraid Xiaoru will end badly.

On the other side, Shaozheng was delivering the newly boiled medicine to Simo, but just after turning a corner, he met her at Xiaoru's door. He was shocked for a moment, seeing that there was no one around, he lowered his voice and said: " Miss Si, why did you come out? I just asked someone to boil the medicine according to what you just said, and now I am going to deliver it to you."

Before he could finish speaking, he saw her drink the medicine and drank it like a gulp of water. Looking at the bitter medicine remaining at the bottom of the bowl, Shaozheng felt bitter in his mouth.

Si Mo handed over the prescription that he had just written in his hand and said, "Boil the medicine according to this prescription and bring it here."

"Ah? This... Master, he..."

"he knows"

"OK, wait"

Si Mo turned and went back to the house, looked at the still unconscious person, touched her bandaged left hand, her fingers were cold, even colder than her own.

While sitting on the edge of the bed and rubbing her body's big acupoints, the question she asked herself in the inn in Gusu suddenly came to mind: What kind of emotion does the relationship between master and student belong to?

At that time, I firmly told her that she belonged to the category of parents and relatives, but now if she asked again, I was afraid that I would not be able to answer it so smoothly.

Parents and relatives were promised each other for life and death, or both, Si Mo's eyes gradually softened.Why bother with what is the relationship with her?If you can spend one more day with her, then spend one more day with her, if you can protect her for a longer time, then protect her for a longer time.

But what should she do if one day she is no longer around... Or go against the teacher's teaching and teach her how to make poisons and medicines, so that she can have a chance to survive in times of crisis.

My eyes slowly closed, and the solemn oath I made when I knelt in front of my master at the age of 13 sounded in my ears: In the future, I will not say the name of my master, nor will I pass on the art of poison making, medicine and acupuncture to others. Others, if they violate this oath, they will make me die without a place to bury me.

Is there no place to die...

Si Mo opened his eyes and looked at the unconscious Ke Qing, with a slight smile on his lips.

Then let me die without a burial place.
