The First Tyrant of Daxia

Qin Yun personally helped him up and said, "No need to be polite. Are you in any trouble?"

The strange old man showed a bitter smile and took the initiative to say: "My name is Nie Tu, Your Majesty, just call me Old Man Nie."

"I'm afraid the medicinal herbs and silver that Your Majesty gave me won't be used anymore."

Hearing this, Qin Yun was shocked!

"Your wife...?"

Nie Tu said bitterly: "She is still here, but last night, the pain tortured her to death. She cried and told me that she wanted to be free."

"She wanted to get out of the house and get some sunshine..."

At this point, his eyes turned red and he choked with sobs, "So I want to come and ask Your Majesty if you can help me let Cuifang recover for a while, even for just one day. I want to accompany her, bask in the sun, and look at the crops."

"Then... let her go without pain..."

He buried his face in his hands, on the verge of collapse.

He could let his wife live a few more years, but that would be too painful and he couldn't bear it. However, making this decision was also like cutting a knife on his chest!

Qin Yun frowned deeply and sighed heavily.

"Have you really thought about it?"

"Perhaps your wife can only survive for a few hours like a normal person."

"Then, send her off peacefully, and you will be separated forever."

Nie Tu wiped away his tears. His expression was not as ferocious as before. Instead, it was calm, with a hint of sadness in his old age.

"Cuifang and I have thought it through."

"Your Majesty is right. She shouldn't be made to suffer so much."

"After I send her off for the last time, I will work like a slave to repay your majesty's kindness!"

Hearing this, Qin Yun took a deep breath, but he did not feel happy, but rather heavy.

"Okay, shall we set off now?"

Nie Tu nodded.

Qin Yun turned around and looked at Old Feng. Old Feng understood and immediately went to prepare the carriage and medicinal materials.

The old woman couldn't be saved, but she was still hanging on to her last breath and couldn't even leave the house. It was really tormenting. Old Feng could only use some special methods to force her to gather some energy.

Let this elderly couple who have supported each other all their lives make their last wish.

Just before departure, Yue Nu suddenly came and insisted on going with them.

Qin Yun didn't want her to follow him. After all, it might be a farewell of life and death, and anyone who saw it would be upset. But he couldn't resist Yue Nu's pleading.

Finally, the group took a horse carriage and went to Fangjiagou again.

Only one month had passed, and the old woman had changed so much that even Qin Yunfeng was shocked.

He was already skinny and extremely old, unable to move an inch on his sickbed. This time his condition was even worse, and there was not a single bit of blood left on his wrinkled face!

She couldn't even see because she was so weak.

The pain in her joints made her break out in cold sweats. She lay there, feeling as if she would die at any moment.

Qin Yun looked at Nie Tu, who was hugging his wife and nodded to Qin Yun.

There wasn't much emotion on his face, it was just very stiff.

"Go ahead, Mr. Feng." Qin Yun said hoarsely.

Old Feng nodded, then stepped forward and placed the prepared herbs on the stove.

At this time, Qin Yun turned around and walked out of the house.

"call!"

"I thought I was strong enough, but until I met Nie Tu and his wife, I realized that my heart is still made of flesh."

Yue Nu frowned, her pretty face heavy. She glanced at the lifeless house and said faintly, "I'm beginning to get a little scared. I'm afraid of what will happen to Old Man Nie if this old woman leaves."

Qin Yun rubbed her shoulders and said, "Birth, aging, sickness and death are the norm in life. Although it is sad, it is most important to seize the present moment."

Yue Nu pursed her red lips, sighed, and said nothing more.

After a long time.

As soon as Old Man Feng came out, Old Man Nie came out, supporting the old woman.

Everyone was shocked!

Is this still the same old woman who was terminally ill and suffering from pain?

She was actually able to walk, and her face regained some color, and even her eyes became much clearer.

Nie Tu showed a grateful smile to Qin Yun and others. His big yellow teeth were particularly noticeable. It seemed as if he hadn't smiled for a long time and couldn't smile anymore.

Qin Yun also smiled at him, but it was a little bitter.

It's a good thing that the old woman can stand up and walk around, but this is her last short time.

He waved his hand, signaling everyone to make way, and he also left the yard, leaving the space for the elderly couple.

Back out the door.

Old Feng said in a low voice: "Your Majesty, I have done my best. I guess the old lady will leave tonight."

"But I have used the best medicinal herbs and my inner strength to suppress her pain. She will pass away peacefully."

Hearing this, Qin Yun nodded heavily.

"I suddenly feel a little regretful now. Is it really right to do this? Maybe..."

Feng Lao said: "Your Majesty, this is their own choice."

"Besides, you tried your best, and you also tried your best to meet Old Man Nie's request."

Yue Nu also said: "Yes, this matter has nothing to do with right or wrong."

Qin Yun smiled bitterly: "Wait here, Nie Tu will be of great use to me and the entire Daxia."

"I came in to help him do more things and give his wife a ride so she won't be too lonely."

Everyone admired him, and even though it wasn't him, he still felt warm inside.

"Yes……"

Soon.

Nie Tu and the old woman supported each other and walked unsteadily to the hillside to check on the crops. They also went to the locust tree where they had agreed to meet when they were young.

Times have changed and many things are gone.

But they still smiled knowingly, reminiscing about the past and looking back on their lives.

That trembling back makes people's hearts tremble. Perhaps this is the meaning of life, this may be called a lifetime.

No one disturbed them, or even appeared in their field of vision, as the area was cleared.

At dusk, the two came back.

Sitting on a wooden bench in my own yard, basking in the sun.

The two elderly people were very calm throughout the whole process and did not speak a word, but their expressions were particularly warm.

This runs almost throughout their life of mutual support, and also runs through the essence of most love, calm and indifferent!

The sun sets and the sky gradually turns to night.

Everything was quiet, and Qin Yun still didn't leave the old house.

Thousands of troops were stationed in Fangjiagou, and no one dared to make a sound.

No one urged me.

It was as if it was a guardian angel, guarding the old couple's last night.

As time passed, the night deepened.

The white-haired old woman finally met her end. She lay on her sickbed, her energy and spirit declining.

She was unable to open her eyes and could only mutter in a vague voice.

"Old man, you should follow His Majesty from now on. I have delayed your skills. I am afraid that you will not be able to live well after I am gone."

Nie Tu showed a stiff smile on his old face, his cloudy eyes were moist, and he held her hand that was as hard as a dead tree, bent down with difficulty, and whispered in her ear.

"Cuifang, don't worry, I just want to eat the cabbage soup you made."
