Born of Worry

The next day, Lin Ruxuan asked Ji Ying to draw 5000 people from the Chiying Army to escort Hu Lugu and Xie Yan back to Beijing.

It's not that I can't stand them in Fenzhou, but... Mo Wen and Li Ye are both here, and I'm really afraid that their temper will come up and kill them.

Because of the special identities of these two people, Shen Xin was worried, so he also drew 100 people from Xuanwu to accompany them.

In this secret contact point of the Xuanjia Army, Li Ye didn't have to pretend to be the emperor for the time being, and his burden was a little lighter, so he could talk to Lin Ruxuan who hadn't been near for a long time.

This day, Li Ye took Lin Ruxuan for a walk in the backyard.

"This is really a good place." Looking at the scenery in the house, Li Ye couldn't help admiring, "We didn't find this place in Fenzhou before, it's really quiet, I think it's not inferior to my Yuwang Mansion at all. "

Lin Ruxuan picked up the willow branches that hung too low, and slowly walked under the tree, "Prince Yu's Mansion? Didn't you live in Wofeng Palace all the time? Where did you get Prince Yu's Mansion from?"

"You don't know this. I do have my own mansion, but it was abandoned after I moved into Wofeng Palace. The place is too remote and quiet. I don't feel comfortable living here. Was it taken over by the little ghost beast?"

"Since you like the excitement, why do you praise the quietness here?"

Li Ye lowered his eyes and sighed, "People will always change. Thinking about it, I will be here soon, so I can't make a fuss."

Lin Ruxuan didn't answer the phone for a while, the air after the rain was still very fresh, there were many leaves that had been knocked down by the rain on the ground, they were still bright, he stepped on a few of them occasionally, and heard him say again:

"This man, once his tense nerves are relaxed, is really exhausted. Now that Xiao Xian has collapsed, Mo Wen has also collapsed."

Lin Ruxuan said: "Then you won't collapse someday, right?"

"Me?" Li Ye shook his head with a smile, "I won't be able to fall for a while, even if I want to fall, no one will take care of me, how dare I fall?" He turned around and patted the other person's chest, "It's you, you go up The first time I suffered such a serious injury, why did it heal all of a sudden? There is no repetition at all?"

Lin Ruxuan held his hand, raised his eyebrows and said, "Why, you think I shouldn't be fine?"

"That's not...it's just that it feels a little strange." Without breaking free from him, they continued to pace hand in hand like this, "But it's okay, so I don't have to worry about you."

There was a stone table and stone bench in the backyard. Li Ye's arrow wound was not healed, and he was tired from walking, so he sat down to rest. Lin Ruxuan poured him tea. Time passed, and the tea was still served on the stone table, but he no longer had the same mood as before.

Xu Shi has passed the age of impetuosity and impetuosity, and has a clearer understanding of this world.

Life is nothing more than one word: involuntary.

"Almost forgot," Lin Ruxuan said suddenly, "You're still taking medicine, so it's better not to drink tea."

Li Ye didn't argue with him, put down his teacup, and said with a smile, "Okay, I'll listen to you."

Suddenly there were a few birdsongs, and a pair of orioles flew from the top of the wall. They chased each other, and they couldn't see clearly when they got into the willow branches, but their calls were still melodious.Lin Ruxuan followed his gaze, looked at it, and said, "Do you want to say, 'two orioles singing green willows'?"

Li Ye was taken aback for a moment, then laughed out loud, shook his head and said, "Actually, I want to say, 'Beat Huang Yinger, don't make the branches cry'."

Lin Ruxuan sipped tea by himself, "You haven't been banned from seeing your husband, what are you doing to beat Huang Yinger?"

"Seeing that it was uncomfortable, I wanted to hit it." After a pause, "Actually, I was thinking about one thing, is Luo Chen really... gone? A good person, just gone?"

"Where did you hear that?"

"Qin Yu told me that Suzaku was martyred." His eyes darkened slightly, "You know Tahan's imperial capital, right? No one in the royal blood survived the tooth tent fire. I heard that the fire burned for a day and a night. Even the heavy rain can't extinguish it, and burn the whole tooth tent into a white ground."

Lin Ruxuan heard some clues, "Did Jin Shang do this?"

"It should be the two of them together, but in the end only people saw a big bird covered in flames soaring into the sky, but no one saw Luo Chen. After that, they also lost contact with the Xuanjia Army."

"Then...he wouldn't burn Luo Chen to death, would he?"

Li Ye sighed and said, "Who knows, anyway, Phoenix will forget everything after Nirvana, even if he really killed him, he won't remember it. That's good, you don't have to live with guilt forever."

Lin Ruxuan didn't know what to pick up. Thinking of the person who was dressed in red like fire and gave him the Fire Lotus Pill, he was afraid that he would never see him again, so he felt inexplicably sad.

Just like those brothers under my command, some of them were still alive and frolicking in front of you yesterday, but today they have become a cold corpse, and even the corpse cannot be found, only a severed arm, a broken leg, or a head is left .

War is always so cruel.

"Okay," Li Ye stood up, "I'm going to see Xiao Xian."

Mo Wen slept for five days, and finally woke up, but he didn't want to take human form, so he put the dragon's head on Li Xian's shoulder, closed the dragon's eyes, and didn't want to move.

The people from the Molong tribe didn't come after him, and they didn't know if they would just let him go.

He has been curtailed for a thousand years, and he has no ability to make waves. It is estimated that the people of the Molong tribe think so, and simply ignore him.

Now, he can't even save his beloved.

Afraid of hurting Li Xian's body, he didn't dare to lean on him for too long, so he moved the faucet away again.He seemed to feel that there was something new in the room. He opened his eyes, turned around and saw a very familiar black dragon paperweight on the table.

——It turned out that Li Ye had already ordered people to pack up all of Li Xian's belongings and bring them back, including that Fang Heilong paperweight.

From entering the Hu on May 25th last year to being saved on June [-]th this year, a total of one year, one month and ten days.

But it was only half a month before Mo Wen parted with him, so two years had passed.

In two years, too many accidents happened.

He finally transformed into a human form, and stretched out his hand to gently touch Li Xian's cheeks. He used to take good care of him, even though he was thin, his cheeks were full, but now, they were deeply sunken, and there was no flesh left.

I don't know how long it will take to get back up again.

Mo Wen picked up the dragon scale next to the pillow, and turned into the same black string as before, threaded it, and put it back around his neck.

The door was gently pushed open.

Shen Xin didn't wear the eye-catching red, but changed into plain clothes, "You're awake."

Mo Wen nodded at her, saw the medicine bowl in her hand, and said, "I'll do it."

She gave him the medicine bowl, propped up Li Xian's head, and sighed, "It's not an option to go on like this, he can't eat, even if he hangs himself with ginseng soup every day, there will always be a day of exhaustion until he dies." .”

Mo Wen paused the hand that was feeding him the medicine, "Why can't you eat?"

"There is a Chinese military doctor in the Tahan Army who has been taking care of His Majesty. I asked him, and he said that His Majesty was hit in the stomach twice by Hu Lugu, and he couldn't eat after that. He vomited whatever he ate, and could only drink some ginseng. Tommy soup and the like. But...his stomach and intestines have been damaged to such an extent that no matter how good the medicine is, only one out of ten of it will be absorbed by his body. If this continues, how can he get better? "

"That's what you mean?"

"I don't mean anything. To be honest, I have been studying medicine for so many years, and this is the first time I have encountered such a difficult patient. Now I can only give him some medicine to regulate the spleen and stomach, plus some medicines to eliminate inflammation and infection, but His illness can't be delayed, I..."

She suddenly stopped talking again, Mo Wen heard something was wrong, and turned to look at her: "What's wrong?"

Shen Xin frowned, as if hesitating for something, after a moment of silence, she said: "Do you know about tuberculosis?"

"Consumption?" Mo Wen trembled in his heart, not sure, "You mean...Xiao Xian?"

Seeing her nodding, Mo Wen stood up suddenly, "This is impossible! How could he get that disease?!"

"His symptoms and pulse are very obvious, and the military doctor said that he is already coughing up blood, although the frequency is not much, but..."

"Stop talking!" Mo Wen interrupted her, closed his eyes, and sat down again, "Then what should we do now? Can it be cured?"

"You clearly know that what can't be cured can only be alleviated at most, but the more the disease develops, the more painful it will be, and in the end it may be impossible to even breathe."

"How long can it be delayed? How long can you delay it for him?"

Seeing his painful expression, Shen Xin lowered her eyes slightly, "With his current physical condition, at most... two years."

Mo Wen was silent for a long time.

"I have thought about something for a long time, and I decided to tell you, although if His Majesty is awake, he will definitely not let me speak." She paused, "Qin Shang told me that since you left, His Majesty has He was depressed all the time, and later he caught a cold and refused to take a good rest. He stayed up late every day, and he was willing to rest in the dead of night. You also know that this disease is caused by overwork. I think, he fell ill, I'm afraid it's not just because of Ta Han, but because of Hu Lugu."

"Are you trying to say... because of me?"

"I think you already have the answer in your heart."

After feeding Li Xian the last spoonful of medicine, Mo Wen smiled wryly, "I see."

When Shen Xin left, he didn't know, he just stared blankly at the sleeping face of the person on the sick bed, held his hand with his own, and refused to let go for a long time.

There were 27 cuts on his right arm. Although most of them had healed, they still looked horrifying. They were left by him to convey information to Dayin. Each cut seemed to be cut on Mo Wen's heart.

In the final analysis, it was you who harmed him.

Mo Wen, if you hadn't gone to make that rain, maybe you wouldn't be here today.

How many people would have been killed if the rain hadn't fallen?If he really didn't go to rain, would Li Xian beg him like that minister?

I didn't want him to make a choice between the world and himself, so I chose for him, but it still hurt him in the end.

Mo asked, between him and the world, which one did you choose?

Life is alive, really involuntary.

He closed his eyes.

"Sister Shen Xin, I'm back!"

The black snake Mo Chou came in carrying a basket, but he didn't see Shen Xin, but saw Mo Wen sitting beside the bed, "Brother Mo Long, are you awake?"

Mo Wen just came back to his senses, suppressed the tears in his eyes, tucked up the quilt for Li Xian, and said, "Where did you go?"

"I went to buy ginseng. I bought many thousand-year-old ginseng, but... where did Sister Shen Xin go? Why can't I see her?"

"You have lived for more than 800 years, and you call Shen Xin your sister?"

"Uh..." Mo Chou was a little embarrassed, scratched his head, and muttered, "Actually, I have lived for more than 1000 years, and I am not a few years younger than you... Doesn't she like being called her sister? She likes it, so I call her that Slightly."

He was no longer the suit of clothes that Shen Xin found for him. After leaving the Nine Abyss Cold Pool, his cultivation became easier, so he transformed himself into a suit of clothes, which were also black, but much more fancy than Mo Wen's. There are many silver thread patterns, but it also adds a bit of elegance to others.

"Brother Mo Long," he put down his basket, and moved closer to Mo Wen, "Can you change my name, Mo Chou is so ugly, they have the nerve to call me, but I am too embarrassed to answer..."

"Then your name is Mo Mei?"

The corners of Mo Chou's mouth twitched, discouraged: "It's still Mo Chou." Blinking his eyes, "Brother Mo Long, how is your little lover?"

"It's still the same."

"Why doesn't he wake up?"

Mo Wen suddenly became dumb, his body froze, and he didn't answer for a long time. "Don't ask so many questions, you bought ginseng, hurry up and give it to Shen Xin."

"Oh……"

Why don't you wake up?Why won't you wake up?Why... dare not wake up.

I don't know how to face myself, how to face him, how to face the world.

After taking a walk with Lin Ruxuan, Li Ye came to accompany Li Xian and stayed with him until noon.

This lunch was actually made by Shen Xin herself...

He glanced at the table of dishes and swallowed, but he was not greedy, but scared.

Scrambled eggs, fried fungus, cold beef, and...a plate of pork liver.

"It's all...what?"

He took the chopsticks and held them up for a long time before working up the courage to taste them. The eggs were too salty, the beef was tasteless, and the pork liver... I don't know if it was undercooked or what, but it was still bloodshot.

Putting these few things together, the strong fishy smell almost made him spit it out. He covered his mouth and forced himself to swallow, almost rolled his eyes, and said, "My little aunt, what do you do?"

Shen Xin had a serious expression on his face, and filled two more bowls of porridge. He asked for a bowl of ink, "You both lost a lot of blood, eat these things to make up for it."

Li Ye stirred the bowl of porridge with a spoon. The porridge contained red beans, red dates, wolfberries, and... looked like angelica.I took a sip and it was drinkable, much better than pork liver, but...

"I said, are you sure it's not...you women drank it when you did something?"

Shen Xin glared at him, "I like to eat, but if I don't eat, I'll get lost."

"Yes, I'll eat." Li Ye didn't want to argue with her, after all, his younger brother had to rely on her to heal him, so he almost swallowed the jujube whole, and didn't really want to taste it, so he swallowed it with the rice.

The black snake Mo Chou suddenly came over, "What are you eating? Can I eat it?"

Li Yexin said buddy, you are really brave, but he said: "Aren't you a snake demon, you still need to eat?"

"Brother Molong is still eating, why can't I eat?" He curled his lips, served the meal himself, and joined them at the table.

Li Ye bit his chopsticks, watching him and Mo Wen eat calmly, especially Mo Chou, who had a soft spot for that plate of pork liver that looked half-baked.The hairs all over his body stood on end. After thinking about it, he comforted himself and said: He is a snake, he is a snake, people are used to eating raw and cold things...

Although I thought so in my heart, I hurriedly dealt with two mouthfuls, drank the porridge and left the table.

These guys... are just too scary...

Shen Xin looked at his fleeing back, a little puzzled, and thought that the food she cooked was really so unpalatable?Can't help but taste the pork liver...

Almost spit it out.

"You, you eat, I'll go first."

Mo Chou looked at her very puzzled, and asked, "Brother Mo Long, why did they all run away?"

"I don't know, let's eat your meal."

"Oh……"

Ten months have passed in a blink of an eye.

Li Xian still showed no signs of waking up.

During this period, according to what Shen Xin said, Mo Wen rubbed his right hand with medicinal wine every day, but he didn't wake up for a long time, and he didn't know the effect.

Although Shen Xin's culinary skills were appalling, her medical skills were excellent. In a month's time, Li Xian's internal injuries were healed to a great extent, no more bleeding in his stomach, and the infection in his intestines was almost healed.

Of course, apart from her, Mo Wen's contribution is indispensable.

Ever since she said that Li Xian's body could hardly absorb the effects of the medicine, Mo Wen came up with a way, which was to nourish him with his own blood, pouring half a bowl of dragon's blood every time he decocted the medicine. , although the taste is unpleasant, the effect is really remarkable.

As for the curative effect of dragon's blood, Mo Wen didn't know himself, but he heard from the elders in the clan that everything on the dragon was a medicinal material, so he tried it with dragon's blood.Ordinary dragon blood was not enough, it had to be the freshest arterial blood, so he took blood from his own neck.

There is an inverse scale under the dragon's neck, which is instantly angry when touched, because it is the second fatal point besides the center of the eyebrows, and it is even weaker than the center of the eyebrows.The dragon's blood flows from the heart, it will first flow through the Nilin, and then flow to the whole body, the blood taken from the Nilin must be the freshest arterial blood.

Because of this, every time blood is taken, it will make him miserable.

His cultivation base has been shaved almost, half a bowl of blood every day, it was alright at first, but after a long time, even he couldn't bear it, so Shen Xin made some blood-enriching meals every day to barely relieve it.

But even so, after bleeding for a month, he almost fainted.

Shen Xin quickly told him to stop, and found some nourishing and blood-invigorating herbs to make soup for him, so that he could cultivate himself.

So on the way back to Weiyang, the group of them, Mo Wen had been lying in the carriage in his original form, listless, not wanting to move.

The injury on Li Ye's shoulder seemed to be healed on the surface, but the bones hadn't healed yet, and his left arm couldn't work hard, so he couldn't take care of Li Xian. Fortunately, Mo Wen brought back the snake, and he was willing to be a snake. Free labor, when Shen Xin was absent, he took the initiative to take care of Li Xian.

Because there were so many patients in the car, the speed of the convoy couldn't get up all the time. Teng Linjun and Guangming Army drove back to the station earlier, and they were escorted back to Beijing by Lin Jiajun.

This time, it was another month.
