Old friends, are you returning?
The four words seemed to express the vicissitudes of half a lifetime, but they were suppressed and restrained to the extreme. I felt that these four words flowed out of his usually calm voice, and the speaking speed was much slower.
Qing Hui did not look back, but looked up at the statue.
Qi Wan has been smart since she was a child, and has learned well in poetry, calligraphy, etiquette and music, but she does not have much interest. Instead, she has a particular preference for flowers and plants at a young age. She is very interested in the herbs prescribed by the doctor at home, and she secretly studies them on her own.
After reading medical books, Mrs. Zheng didn't like that a daughter of her boudoir was learning these things, so she forced her to learn knitting needlework, but she went behind someone's back and used an embroidery needle to prick her acupuncture points all over, almost turning herself into a cripple.<
/p>
Madam Zheng was so angry that she refused to let her touch needlework for several months.
When she was nine years old, she followed Mrs. Zheng to go to Qiyue Temple to offer incense. She got lost looking at a medicinal herb in the mountains. She met Taoist Yuan He who was collecting medicinal herbs. She mistook Mr. Yuan He for a doctor and pestered her.
She asked him to teach her medical skills, but to her surprise, Taoist Master Yuan He agreed to accept her as his disciple, but refused to take her name.
She didn't dare to let Mrs. Zheng know that she wanted to stay in Qiyue Temple to study medicine, so she made up a lie and said that Taoist Master Yuanhe said that her life was light and she was prone to accidents before she got hairpins, so she had to stay in the Taoist temple for a while.
Mrs. Zheng immediately believed it and agreed for her to stay in Qiyueguan to recuperate.
From then on, she spent more than half of every year at Qiyue Temple. She called her Master Yuanhe, but Yuanhe never called her by her name. He only called her Eleven according to the ranking of the young disciples in the temple.
Later, she got engaged to Lian Jinchen, and when she got married, she left Qiyueguan, and no one knew about this master-disciple relationship.
Even except for the people in Qi Guogong's palace, few people knew that she had stayed in Qiyue Temple for several years.
As she slowly revealed her medical skills, everyone just regarded her as her hobby and didn't take it seriously.
Although Mrs. Zheng was angry that she was still studying secretly, she did not criticize her harshly.
She was young and willful, and felt that she was a little too much, so she tried her best to follow the rules and didn't want Mrs. Zheng to worry and cry for her anymore.
After learning that she was not her biological child, although she was disappointed, she was also somewhat relieved.
She even thought at that time that if one day she was abandoned, she would leave the capital to practice medicine and become a chivalrous and righteous hero. It was not that she could not let go, but at that time, the grace of raising her was still there, and the status of husband and wife was still there.
Now, she didn't realize at all that the year she spent in Prince Chen's Mansion was called neglect, but it was actually imprisonment.
Lian Jinchen didn't see her, so he secretly trapped her in the palace, while he went to Mount Sumeru to invite the magic-handed monk, waiting to rip out her heart to save his sweetheart.
This is indeed a dead end.
It was too late for her to see through that moment. She couldn't fight those people or escape this disaster.
So are these all destined endings?
That's why Master never calls her by the name "Qi Wan", because this name is a mistake and will be erased sooner or later.
Qing Hui stood up, turned to Taoist Priest Yuan He and smiled with relief,
"The old friend has passed away. Whether the vegetation has withered or the bones have turned to ashes, this life is over."
"Who knows who is the one who is born again when the spring breeze blows?"
"You think so? Taoist priest."
Taoist Priest Yuan He looked at her smiling eyes, which were so beautiful without any emotion, and nodded slightly.
"Yes, my old friend has passed away."
"That's right. Are there any old friends or new friends?" She rubbed the big tiger's head, "Don't you think so, little cutie?"
"Didn't the Taoist invite me to eat vegetarian food? Where can I eat it?"
She was a little tired from walking, so she turned over and jumped on the big tiger's back, raised her head and leaned on the big tiger's head, stretched her long legs on his back, and yawned comfortably.
"Lead the way, Taoist Master."
Taoist Priest Yuan He's eyes fell on her for a moment, then he looked away silently, turned around and walked out of the hall, leading her the way.
Qingshan pointed his fingers, and a piece of dogtail grass flew from the base of the wall. Qingshan bit the grass in his mouth, lazily looking at the once familiar hall, half-squinting his eyes,
"Taoist Priest, the fate of the eleventh year is only about eleven years."
"I have a name, Qing Hua."
