The world's ambitions are unparalleled

Chapter 112 Epilogue
The flowers in front of the court are blooming and falling, and the world is changing. In the blink of an eye, seven years have passed.

How long is seven years?Jinse has long been unable to remember, the only thing she remembers is that she spent the seventh year with Su Xun on her birthday, the baby who was so babbling that even "mother" couldn't speak clearly was already eight years old.

But the person she was waiting for still never came back.

"The Master said: 'A gentleman has nothing to eat, nothing to live in, and nothing to live in. He is sensitive to things but cautious in his words. He has the way and is upright. He can be said to be eager to learn.'"

"The Master said: 'The wise enjoy the water, the benevolent enjoy the mountains; the wise move, the benevolent are still; the wise enjoy, the benevolent live long.'"

"The Master said: 'Don't worry about what others don't know, and worry about people who don't know.'"

Sitting in the lobby of the pharmacy, Jinse lowered her head and pounded the medicine, while listening to Su Xun standing beside her reciting aloud, and when he had finished reciting word for word, she smiled and said, "Yes, if things go on like this, Xun'er will be a The top pick!"

"I don't want to take the No. [-] Scholar exam!" Su Xunbie started, "I want to study medicine with Uncle Pei!"

"Really?" Jinse was overjoyed when she heard the words. Studying medicine is very suitable for her. In the future, she will live an ordinary life, hanging the pot to help the world. It is a blessing, but it is also a blessing.

"That's natural!" Su Xun raised his head and said loudly, "When I grow up, I will ask Uncle Pei to accept me as an apprentice, and then I will travel around with him, treating diseases and saving lives!"

Jinse heard the words, put down the pestle in her hand, pretended to be angry and said: "You followed Uncle Pei to wander around, don't you want to leave mother alone?"

Su Xun was slightly taken aback when he heard the words, pondered for a moment with deep eyes, and then said: "Then... I'll just wait for Dad to come back, and then go with Uncle Pei."

Jinse laughed again, and said, "But Uncle Pei has come and gone without a trace, maybe he won't come back for several years, what can you do?"

Su Xun was startled again, and replied: "Then I'll just read the medical books left by Uncle Pei, and I'm right to assume that Uncle Pei accepted me as an apprentice!"

As soon as the words were finished, the light in front of the medicine shop suddenly dimmed, and then a man's low-pitched and laughing voice came: "What an ambitious boy, today, I will accept you as a disciple!"

Both mother and son looked up at the same time, only to see Pei Yiqing, whom they hadn't seen for more than a year, walking in from the door.

Su Xun's eyes lit up all of a sudden, he ran up to Pei Yiqing and knelt down: "Master, please accept my apprentice's respect!"

Seeing this, Pei Yiqing rarely burst out laughing: "Okay, I will accept you as a disciple today, remember to study medicine wholeheartedly, and don't have other distractions!"

"The disciple respectfully obeys the master's order!" Su Xun's voice was clear, and while speaking, he bowed down to Pei Yiqing in a full-fledged posture.

Jinse really didn't know where he learned these postures, and she thought it was funny when she saw it, but she was very happy in her heart. After Pei Yiqing helped Su Xun and sat on the chair, she poured a cup of tea for Pei Yiqing: "Where did you come back from?"

Pei Yiqing took the tea, took a sip, and said, "From a place of extreme cold and suffering."

Jin Se was stunned, and said with a smile: "In a place of extreme cold and suffering, there are people who need you to heal?"

Hearing this, Pei Yiqing raised her head and glanced at her: "The people there don't need my treatment, but they need me to heal others."

When Jinse saw his eyes and listened to what he said, for some reason, her heart skipped a beat, she just felt that he had some deep meaning: "Who needs you to heal others?"

Pei Yiqing smiled lightly and didn't answer. She just untied the bag, took out a square wooden box from inside, and handed it to Jinse: "You should take this as soon as possible."

Jinse took it over, opened it, and found a fungus-like thing lying inside, but it was bright red in color.Jinse was suspicious: "What kind of mushroom is this? The color is so bright, isn't it poisonous?"

"This is blood ganoderma." Pei Yiqing said.

"Snow Ganoderma?" Jinse's brows twitched, "The kind of Snow Ganoderma I once ate?"

Pei Yiqing shook his head faintly: "It's blood ganoderma. Irrigate snow ganoderma with human blood for seven years, and then we can get a blood ganoderma."

"Human blood?" Hearing this, Jin Se turned pale and stiffened for a long time, then suddenly grabbed Pei Yiqing's robe tightly, "Whose blood?"

Seeing her expression, Pei Yiqing frowned slightly: "You—"

"Is it him?" She paused for a long time, then suddenly asked with difficulty.

"Why do you think so?" Pei Yiqing said.

Jinse suddenly pulled up her cuff, handed her wrist in front of him, gritted her teeth, and said, "Because I once had a very shallow scar here, if someone reminded me, even myself Couldn't even find it!"

Seven years ago, in Qingzhou, the imperial capital, she accidentally ran into Lin Chunyu's Hu Nuer on the street.

At that time, she just learned that she was banned in the city by Su Li. She stopped at the gate of the city for a long time, but finally turned around and walked back.

When walking on the way, she always felt as if someone was watching her. Jinse turned her head suddenly, but met a pair of familiar green eyes.

Seeing her turn around, Hu Nuer suddenly smiled at her.

Jinse was startled, looked around her, but did not find Lin Chunyu's figure, so she also laughed and nodded to her.

Hu Nuer looked at her expression carefully, and said with a smile, "How are you?"

It was the first time Jinse heard her speak. She was a bearded woman with a strange accent, and the first sentence she spoke to her was also a little strange.Jinse didn't care, she nodded with a smile, and said, "Are you alone? Where is Mr. Lin?"

Hu Nuer pointed to the front: "He is waiting for me in the teahouse in front."

Jinse paused suddenly, wondering if Lin Chunyu would know about Su Mo's whereabouts, but on second thought, even Haitang refused to tell her what happened during those few months of coma, even if Lin Chunyu knew, how could she tell herself?
Thinking of this, her eyes suddenly dimmed, and she paused for a moment, then remembered that Hu Nuer was still in front of her, raised her head again, and smiled at her: "Then go quickly."

Hu Nuer looked at her, but suddenly came forward, held her hand, looked into her eyes, and said word by word: "Don't be sad, he is always with you."

When Jinse heard the words, she suddenly held her back: "What did you say?"

Hu Nuer smiled sweetly and said, "I said, he has been with you all the time."

"You know what happened!" Jinse looked at her eagerly, "You know where he is!"

Hu Nuer paused for a moment, repeatedly thinking about how to express it, and then said again: "He is willing to exchange his life for yours, so he will always be with you."

After she finished speaking, she caressed Jinse's wrist with her fingertips seemingly unintentionally.

Jinse froze, and then slowly stroked the position that Hu Nuer had just stroked.

After waking up for so long, she noticed for the first time that there was a very shallow scar on her wrist, and she didn't know when it was caused.

She stared blankly at the scar for a long time, then suddenly raised her head to look at Hu Nuer: "You saved me?"

Hearing this, Hu Nuer suddenly put her hands on her chest, and bowed slightly to Jinse: "It is the medicine of my people that made you suffer, and I just exchanged his blood for your life. The one who saved you is still him. "

His... blood!

Jinse caressed the scar, her face was pale and her hands and feet were cold.

That is, has he been with her all this time?

When he rescued her, everyone knew that she was the only one who was unconscious, and when he woke up, he disappeared. Everyone kept it from her, lied to her, and wanted her to think that he was dead.

But when she knew that there was his blood in her body, she never hesitated again. No matter how long it took, she believed that he would definitely come back.

At this moment, Pei Yiqing took out the blood ganoderma and told her that it was grown by watering human blood, and she couldn't help but connect it with what Hu Nuer said that day.

If this blood ganoderma was cultivated by him, and he is still alive, but he wants to make her think that he is dead, then it is very likely that he knows that he will not come back.

"Is it him?" She looked at Pei Yiqing and asked persistently, "Didn't I heal seven years ago? Why do I still need to eat this blood ganoderma?"

Pei Yiqing lowered her eyes slightly, and said: "That'red face' is an extremely vicious poison. Although you have detoxified now, the sequelae are still stubborn. If you don't have this snow lotus, your future days will be worse. very sad."

"What about him?" Her voice suddenly dropped, "What about him after cultivating this blood ganoderma?"

She has waited and guarded for so many years, if she just waited for such a blood ganoderma, why bother?

Pei Yiqing sighed slightly, stretched out her hand to remove her hand that was grabbing her sleeve, and said in a low voice: "I made an oath, there are some things that must never be said, since you have been stubbornly waiting for so many years, in fact, the result is not important anymore .”

The result is no longer important?How could it be unimportant?How could a life with him be the same as a life without him?
And how long can she wait stubbornly?

August [-]th, the Mid-Autumn Festival.

It's rare that Pei Yiqing stayed here for several months this year and didn't continue to travel. This year's Mid-Autumn Festival didn't look too depressed.

Jinse's poor cooking skills can only be made up for by the long preparation time. She gets busy in the kitchen early in the morning, preparing festive dishes and moon cakes.

Su Xun has worked very hard since he worshiped Pei Yiqing as his teacher. Up to now, he has learned most of the medicinal materials and the basic medical principles. The more he learns, the more interested he becomes. He didn't even eat, and it wasn't until the afternoon that he suddenly felt hungry, and ran to the kitchen to find Jinse to eat.

Jinse has been busy for a long time, and at least she has achieved some results. Just as she was about to get him something to eat, Su Xun suddenly stood on tiptoe and reached out to her head: "Mother, don't move."

Jinse lowered her head slightly: "What's wrong?"

"Flour is on Mother's head." Su Xun said, and was about to wipe Jinse off. After wiping it, he realized that it was not flour. "Hey, it turned out to be a white hair."

When Jinse heard this, she was slightly startled, and then said: "Then help mother unplug it."

Su Xun agreed, and as soon as he tried hard, he really pulled Jinse off.

Jinse took the white hair and smiled in a daze.

Unexpectedly... Even the white hair came out.

"Mother, I'll eat two steamed buns. I'll pad my stomach first!" Su Xun found the steamed buns, and stopped pestering Jinse to get him something to eat. He took two steamed buns and ran back to the study.

In the evening, before dinner, Pei Yiqing suddenly received an emergency call, and there was no time to eat, so he hurried to the east of the town. Naturally, Su Xun didn't want to miss this opportunity to study, so he greeted Jinse and followed Pei Yiqing gone.

Jinse sighed, took all the food back to the kitchen, put it on the stove to heat up, stood there for a while, and then walked out of the pharmacy to breathe.

On the left hand side of the pharmacy is the only river in the town. On a normal day, there should be many people sitting on the bridge chatting and laughing, but today is such a day of family reunion, every family is watching the moon in their yard, and there are still people who come to the river. here?
Jinse walked up the bridge slowly, sat down on the railing, and looked down at the moon thrown into the water.

The moon is round and people are round, but where is the person she is waiting for?
She sat quietly at the bridge until the third watch. Pei Yiqing and Su Xun still didn't come back. Jinse got up helplessly. Just as she was about to go back to the pharmacy, she suddenly saw a figure of a man in front of her, walking slowly towards this side.

Although the moonlight was good, it was still blurry, and with the obstruction of the houses on both sides, Jinse couldn't see the figure of the man clearly, only knew that he was walking very slowly, from the time she saw him to the bridge, the distance was only more than a hundred steps , but he walked for a long time.

But when he finally got closer, Jinse's heart suddenly jumped wildly.

For so many years, she has never experienced such throbbing again, and this throbbing of hers is only for one person in this life.

He finally walked to the riverside, and the moonlight cast unobstructedly on his face. Under the clear light, the handsome face of the former Fengshen was already stained with elegance, but those eyebrows, in a daze, were still the same as before. appearance.

Suddenly she couldn't see anything clearly, everything around her became fragmented, only his eyes were her only clear pursuit.

He came slowly, still wearing the green shirt and casual clothes most often on weekdays. Seeing her standing there, the corner of his mouth curled up into a smile, like a husband who came home late, expressing his gratitude silently when he saw his waiting wife.

And she, who has been waiting for a long time, although she is full of joy at this time, she can't help being wronged and complaining.

"I waited until my hair was all white, why did you come back?"
