Dedicated every day to make Master go crazy

"Then what happened next?" the girl in the pink blouse raised her head and asked the woman beside her.

The girl in pink is about seven or eight years old, her soft hair is tied up with a headband of the same color, and her face is raw and cute.

She was looking up at the woman in purple beside her, holding a bamboo basket with many things in her arms.

Little girl: "Master just said that the former leader and his sweetheart quarreled and separated, and left alone. Then what happened? Then what happened?"

The woman in purple beside her was slender and slender, and her appearance was also charming.

She was also holding a bamboo basket in her hand. While holding the girl with the other hand, the woman replied: "Later? There will be no later. The leader broke his heart and stopped walking in the rivers and lakes. He was recuperating in teaching. His sweetheart did not go back, and continued to practice medicine in various places."

"And then there will be the battle of Thousand Maple Valley, right?" The little girl looked up at Qingyue.

"That's right, the battle of Thousand Maple Valley will follow." Qingyue raised her hand and stroked the little girl's hair, "I | The military of the dynasty has been weak for a long time, and because of the strength of the martial arts, no one cared about it. The country has been coveting our territory for a long time, taking advantage of our unpreparedness to invade... Our government is not prosperous, our army is weak, and there is no one to respond. The Yue Kingdom occupied a lot of our territory overnight. They burned, killed, looted, and committed all sorts of crimes against the people in the city. Under such circumstances, the martial arts people rose up and went to the front line to help. In those few years, countless people died in the martial arts. Among them, the battle with the most casualties was five The Battle of Thousand Maple Valley years ago. It is said that after that battle, the blood in the valley stained the entire maple forest red, the sky and the earth were full of blood, and corpses littered the field."

The martial arts of the people in the martial arts are indeed high-strength, but compared with thousands of enemy troops with real swords and guns, and even other large-scale weapons, it is not enough.

But even so, the people in the martial arts did not back down.

That's when the whole martial arts world participated in the war. In those few years, there was no distinction between good and evil, but only between ourselves and the enemy.

Regardless of the righteous way or the evil way, they all fought bloody battles to the last moment to protect the country.

Especially the battle of Thousand Maple Valley.

This was the last battle with the Yue Kingdom, and almost two-thirds of the martial arts power was lost in this battle.People in the martial arts fight side by side, they would rather die than retreat.

It is said that after the Battle of Thousand Maple Valley, some people voluntarily went to collect the corpses, but they saw corpses scattered all over the valley. Many people in the martial arts world were still holding hands with those around them when they were dying. evil ways.

Because after Thousand Maple Valley, there is a hinterland area where countless people live.

However, due to the remote location of Qianfeng Valley, the reinforcements have not arrived for a long time.

Thousand Maple Valley is the last line of defense between the front line and the rear. They know that they have no way to retreat, and they will never retreat again, so they used their bodies to build this last barrier.

The battle of Thousand Maple Valley suffered heavy losses, but after this battle, the Yue Kingdom finally failed and retreated.

But those who have died will never come back.

"The former leader died in the battle of Thousand Maple Valley, didn't he?" The little girl raised her head and asked.

She has been carrying the bamboo basket for a long time, she is young and weak, and she is obviously struggling now, Qingyue saw that the little girl's white and tender face was already covered with beads of sweat.

Qingyue wanted to reach out to take the bamboo basket from the little girl's hand, but the little girl dodged it sideways.

Qingyue smiled, stretched out her hand and gently lifted her apprentice to wipe off the sweat, and replied: "Yes, the leader died at the end of the Battle of Thousand Maple Valley...he was the one who supported the enemy army several times with his own strength. In an hour, let the reinforcements have a chance to arrive."

"The former leader is really amazing! You are worthy of being a great hero in our sect!" The little girl said, "No wonder they all said that because of the former leader, those righteous martial arts have truly accepted our evil ways."

"Yes, the leader is naturally the most powerful." Qingyue said with a smile, and then stroked the hair of the apprentice beside her.

The little girl obviously enjoyed the intimacy of the master, her almond eyes narrowed.

With some difficulty, she changed her hands to carry the bamboo basket, and she walked a little staggeringly: "But even so, it's a pity. The former leader is so pitiful. It would be great if he didn't die."

The little girl sniffed as she spoke.

Qingyue smiled and said: "That's not necessarily the case. The leader died in the arms of his sweetheart in the end. I think when he died... he should be satisfied."

Su Shaomian, as the owner of the Valley of the Miraculous Doctors, naturally would not refuse to go to such a large-scale battle as the Thousand Maple Valley.

It's a pity that he was a little far away, when he rushed to see Shen Lanzhou stopping the last enemy, but he was shot with arrows.

Although Shen Lanzhou's kung fu is high, he has been fighting non-stop for several days before.

When the rain of arrows shot at him, he didn't have the strength to resist at all, not to mention his body...had indeed become extremely poor in the past few years.

Su Shaomian rushed over in a hurry, and the reinforcements who finally arrived were with him.

It's a pity that Su Shaomian only had time to catch Shen Lanzhou who fell, but he couldn't heal him.

Shen Lanzhou was already hurt too badly.

Su Shaomian hugged Shen Lanzhou in a daze, feeling his hands trembling violently for a moment.

However, Shen Lanzhou looked up at him, and he smiled and exhausted his last strength to tie his ancestral jade pendant—the jade pendant he had already given to Su Shaomian, but Su Shaomian sent back—to the Su Shaomian's waist.

He was injured so badly that it was obvious that the remaining strength was not enough for him to do other things.

So Shen Lanzhou took one last look at Su Shaomian and closed his eyes in his arms.

When he died, there was indeed a smile on his lips.

After the battle of Qianfenggu, because of Shen Lanzhou's tragic behavior, it caused great waves in the martial arts. Not only the righteous people, but also the "neutral people" such as Miracle Doctor Valley have finally completely let go of their prejudice against evil ways. Completely accepted the evil way.

Because Shen Lanzhou's contribution in this battle was really great, and he himself died in this battle. After the battle of Qianfenggu, Wulin respected the Demon Sect as the leader, and the new leader of the Demon Sect, Shen Lanzhou's junior sister Qingyue For the lord.

Shen Lanzhou's strategy of unifying the martial arts that has been planned for decades has actually been realized so far, in a way that no one has guessed before.

It's a pity that Shen Lanzhou himself couldn't see it.

Qingyue sighed softly as she thought about it, and walked forward holding her apprentice's hand.

Not far ahead is Shen Lanzhou's cemetery.

The little girl walked a few steps quickly with Qingyue. This was the first time she came to offer incense to Shen Lanzhou, so she was very excited.

She glanced at the bamboo basket in her hand, then at the bamboo basket in the master's hand, blinked, and asked suddenly: "Master, why do we need to bring two copies of paper money when we come to see the former leader?"

Qingyue's footsteps paused, but she didn't answer her words, only sighed again.

The little girl was puzzled, so she had no choice but to follow Qingyue forward with a puzzled face.

The cemetery in front gradually came into view.

It was the first time for the little girl to come to the cemetery, and she carefully looked at the tombstone with curiosity, but this glance made her stunned.

I saw that the tombstone in front of me was black in color, and looked extraordinarily majestic.

This... is clearly not a single burial tomb, but a joint burial tomb!

Who is the other person in this tomb?

Isn't the leader's sweetheart said to be still alive?

The little girl looked at the name on the tombstone strangely.

There are two names written side by side on it, except for Shen Lanzhou's name, the other...

"Ye, Ye Cheng?" The little girl was young and could not read well. After a long time, she finally recognized another name. She looked up at the master, "Master, who is this Ye Cheng?"

The name sounds familiar... The little girl frowned and played with her hair.

Qingyue was silent for a moment, and finally let out a heavy sigh after a long while.

She bent down to take the bamboo basket in the little girl's hand, and lit it together with the paper money in the bamboo basket in her own hand: "Ye Cheng...just another fool."

"Another fool?" The little girl looked up at the master, tilting her head and asking in doubt.

"Yeah, the two lying here are both fools." Qingyue sighed, "One would rather die for the sake of his sweetheart, and the other would rather be buried with his sweetheart...so willing to burn himself on fire at a very good age." And die. They are all fools, hopeless ones."

There is a custom in the Demon Cult. After the death of the leaders of all generations, the corpses will be cremated and then buried in the ground. It is said that the first generation leader created this rule because he made too many enemies when he was alive. With this canon.

As the leader of the Demon Cult, Shen Lanzhou's body would naturally be cremated after death.

Most of the martial arts people came that day, just to see Shen Lanzhou off.

But just before the cremation, everyone suddenly found that Shen Lanzhou's body was nowhere to be found.

Qingyue has known about the relationship between Shen Lanzhou and Ye Cheng in those few years. After all, before that, Ye Cheng often came to Shen Lanzhou, even though Shen Lanzhou didn't want to see him.

Qingyue felt a thump in her heart, and hurriedly took her subordinates to Tianshan to look for Ye Cheng.

There is a wonderful scene on Tianshan Mountain. Although it is covered with frost and snow all the year round, there is also a natural cage furnace.

It is said that as long as a fire is lit there, the temperature of the fire can be extremely high, and even human bones can be burned.

When everyone rushed over, they only saw the raging fire dyed in the cage stove.

After the fire was burnt out, Qingyue went in, only to see a pile of coke that looked like ashes.

Outside the cage furnace, Ye Cheng's silver knife was lying there, together with the Wishful Bead he had given to Shen Lanzhou.

Everyone fell silent, and some people couldn't help crying.

Qingyue knew why Ye Cheng did this.

She once heard Ye Cheng stand at the door of Shen Lanzhou and say: "He doesn't like you, why can't you think about me? I know I did something wrong before, but I will change it in the future, I really will change it Yes... I will be very good to you, I will go with you wherever you go when you are alive, and I will do everything with you. When you die... I will be with you. Life and death Same acupoint, Lanzhou, what I told you back then was sincere."

At that time, Shen Lanzhou's health was extremely poor. He even had the tendency to self-mutilate because of all hopelessness and over-stimulation. The doctors said that if he continued like this, he might not live for a few years.

Ye Cheng only said that.

But Ye Cheng also knew that Shen Lanzhou would not answer him.

Shen Lanzhou didn't like him, so the place next to his grave would not be reserved for him at all.

So... Ye Cheng chose to die with him and be burned by the fire together.

After being burned by the raging fire, only the bones remained of the body, which was entangled, and the people could no longer distinguish which was Shen Lanzhou and which was him, so they had to bury them together.

Live in the same bed, die in the same acupuncture point.

Ye Cheng couldn't do the former when he was alive, but he managed to do the latter after death... at the cost of his life.

Qingyue burnt the paper money one by one silently, then carefully cleared the weeds beside the tomb, bent down and took the disciple's hand, turned and left.

The little girl obediently followed Qingyue for a few steps, but suddenly said: "Master, who is the former leader's sweetheart? Why doesn't he come to see the former leader today? Doesn't he like the former leader?"

Today is Shen Lanzhou's death day, logically speaking, it should come naturally.

Qingyue sighed after hearing this, but did not answer the question.

She took the little girl's hand and left slowly.

After Shen Lanzhou's death, few people in the entire martial arts world knew that his sweetheart was Su Shaomian, and it was clear that there had been a commotion before.

Presumably, Shen Lanzhou saw that Su Shaomian was really unwilling to accept him, and knew that his time was short, and he didn't want to let himself tarnish Su Shaomian's reputation, so he made some kind of arrangement to deceive so many people in the martial arts world.

It's really... with deep affection and good intentions.

But I don't know that person, can I appreciate it?

*****

The Valley of Miraculous Doctors thousands of miles away.

Su Shaomian, who has succeeded as the genius doctor Gu Guzhu, diagnosed the pulse of the previous patient, prescribed a prescription, and ordered his medicine boy to fetch the medicine.

Before the next patient came in, Su Shaomian suddenly became free.

Ever since Su Shaomian took over as the owner of the Valley of the Divine Doctor, the agreement not to tell the location of the Valley of the Divine Doctor to the world has been abolished.

Nowadays, the genius doctor Gu has many patients coming to seek medical treatment and medicine every day, and Su Shaomian has also recruited many new disciples.

Everyone is praising Su Shaomian's bodhisattva heart, Hua Tuo is alive, and the longevity ranking in the people's family has established countless for him, but Su Shaomian still feels empty.

He felt that he didn't care about the ranks enshrined in people's homes, the place where he most wanted to engrave his name...but he never had the chance.

Su Shaomian was in a daze, and the next patient came in.

The next patient was a young woman with a beautiful face and a charming temperament.

While answering Su Shaomian's questions about the disease, the woman was peeking at Su Shaomian.

This Guzhu Su has always had a very good reputation, all the martial arts people and the common people praised him, saying that he is handsome, a genius doctor reborn, gentle and polite, his whole body is as bright as beautiful jade, without any blemish, he is really like a fairy The character, I don't know how many young women's hearts have been secretly promised.

The woman peeked at Su Shaomian for a long time, and suddenly saw the jade pendant on Su Shaomian's waist: "Ah, Guzhu Su's jade pendant looks really good."

The woman said in an admiring tone: "The carving is also exquisite. Guzhu Su wears it so close to his body, did someone important give it to you?"

The woman's original intention of saying this was just to stir up a topic and get close to Su Shaomian, but she never thought that Su Shaomian, who was calm just now, froze when he heard his words.

The woman felt that his expression changed at that moment.

Su Shaomian forcibly settled his mind, he saw a doctor for the girl and prescribed a prescription, but he didn't say a word, he just sent the girl out politely.

After Su Shaomian sent the woman away, he glanced at the medicine boy waiting outside the door, and said for the first time since taking office: "I'm tired, you let the patients in the line behind... go to see other doctors."

As he spoke, ignoring Yaotong's surprised expression, he turned and walked into his room, closing the door.

Su Shaomian sat in the room blankly for a long time before finally looking at the jade pendant on his waist with shaking hands.

This jade pendant is really exquisite, it is priceless at first glance, just like Shen Lanzhou once, it is extravagant from the inside to the outside.

Every time Su Shaomian saw this jade pendant, he would recall the scene when Shen Lanzhou put it on for himself before he died.

The man's black clothes were stained blood-colored, his whole body was also covered with bloodstains, and there were knife marks he had cut on his arms that he didn't know when.

He was injured so badly, and it was such a simple matter of tying the jade pendant, but Shen Lanzhou took a long time to tie it with trembling hands.

Su Shaomian remembered that after he tied the jade pendant on himself, Shen Lanzhou seemed to smile.

He looked up at himself, smiling contentedly in his arms.

"Shao Mian, before you scolded me that I was cowardly and self-mutilated and wanted to pity you, but it's not true..." Shen Lanzhou said softly, "I just, just want you to hug me again."

"You said at that time that you disliked me because I was dirty from my blood. I think it is true, since you dislike me so much, you naturally don't want to get close to me. So I thought... Maybe one day my blood When the water is exhausted, you won't feel that I'm dirty, and you can hug me." Shen Lanzhou laughed, and he raised his eyes to look at Su Shaomian, but a tear fell from his bloody eyes, "I was thinking, It's enough to be hugged by you before I die... just like when we first met."

"Shaomian, I have suffered such a serious injury now, I think the blood on my body will be drained soon. Shaomian, at that time, you can just hug me, just hug me, okay?" Shen Lanzhou The light in his eyes gradually dimmed. He obviously couldn't bear it anymore and was about to die. "It's good to die like this. In the next life...you can't despise me anymore."

"Am I...clean now?"

Shen Lanzhou was talking, but his voice became lower and lower, until finally there was no sound at all.

He just kept his eyes open, still looking at Su Shaomian obsessively, his eyes were paranoid and stubborn, as if he was waiting for an answer.

Su Shaomian's eyes are too familiar...

That year in Fengcheng, Shen Lanzhou also looked at him like this, his eyes were paranoid...and so fragile, he looked at him like that, almost begging for his closeness.

But what did I do at that time?

Su Shaomian resisted the soreness in his eyes, bent down and hugged Shen Lanzhou.

"...Yes." Su Shaomian closed her eyes and said softly, "Shen Lanzhou, I forgive you."

Shen Lanzhou finally laughed. With a smile on his lips, he closed his eyes contentedly in the arms of his sweetheart.

That day Su Shaomian hugged Shen Lanzhou and sat on the ground for a long time.

Su Shaomian didn't have many moments in this life when he was in a daze like this. The other time...was at Shen Lanzhou's cremation ceremony.

Su Shaomian actually had a foresight when he heard everyone say that Shen Lanzhou's body could not be found.

Ye Cheng's state after Shen Lanzhou's death was terrible, he absolutely believed that Ye Cheng could die with Shen Lanzhou at any time.

It's just that Su Shaomian didn't expect that Ye Cheng would do it like that.

Burning fire... How painful is this?

Su Shaomian saw the bodies of Ye Cheng and Shen Lanzhou after they were burned. Although they were only ashes that were almost burnt to ashes, he could still see how Ye Cheng hugged Shen Lanzhou's body tightly and lit the fire.

At that time, people around were amazed at how deep Ye Cheng's affection for Shen Lanzhou was, but he just stood there blankly.

At that time Su Shaomian had a faint feeling that he seemed to lose something.

This feeling reached its peak when he saw martial arts people bury Shen Lanzhou and Ye Cheng, prepare a joint tomb, and engrave their names on the tombstone.

Su Shaomian was standing in the crowd at that time, looking at the names of Ye Cheng and Shen Lanzhou listed side by side on the tombstone in front of him, he almost couldn't restrain his desire to shout.

He wanted to say, that position should be mine!

I am Shen Lanzhou's lover!I should be lying next to his tomb, and the name engraved next to his stele should also be me!

The person Shen Lanzhou loves is me!

Ye Cheng, Ye Cheng, why...

Su Shaomian wanted to shout, but in fact, he just stood there in a daze, watching the whole ceremony blankly.

Can't say anything, can't say anything.

Su Shaomian lowered his head and clutched the jade pendant around his waist, and suddenly laughed: "Probably...compared with him, I really don't love you enough."

"It was in the previous life, and it is also in this life. He can die for you, both in the two lives. But I... only hurt you."

"What next life?" Su Shaomian laughed, shedding tears while smiling, "Even if you give me another ten or a hundred lives, I'm afraid I won't be able to snatch him away."

Su Shaomian stared blankly at Yupei, and suddenly remembered when he first met Shen Lanzhou, the man's brows and eyes at that time...how arrogant and shining.

He didn't care about that kind of force, but he still couldn't control the throbbing in his heart at that moment.

Xie Yu presents each other and hugs each other by the window.

The sun and the moon wish to meet the stars.
