It seems that not only people cannot be judged by their appearance, but also books.
"I still don't know what book it is." Ning Yu spread out the book for Xiaodong to read.
The characters on it, or the symbols, are strange and weird, and the fonts are extremely complicated, and Xiaodong can't recognize any of them.
"I don't know what the characters are yet. I'll ask Master later, maybe Master knows."
For the time being, I can't figure out what kind of book this is.
Mo Chen checked Ning Yu's pulse, Xiaodong said softly, "I'll go and boil the water."
He drew water, lit a fire, and slowly chased away the smoke with a small cattail fan.
In the room, Mo Chen checked the pulse, and put his hand back under the quilt for Ning Yu: "I'll give you a prescription."
Ning Yu said: "Thank you, in fact, my illness is an old one, it doesn't matter if I take medicine or not, just lie down for a while and I'll be fine."
Mo Chen spread paper and ink, turned to look at him: "Really?"
Ning Yu said, "That's natural."
"But your pulse condition is different from the previous times." Mo Chen was not polite at all, and dismantled the stage in person: "Don't say that you are not satisfied with the mountains and waters of Huiliu. Sick at this time."
Ning Yu coughed.
If you really want to say that the climate is not acclimatized, it would be a bit disrespectful to the host family.
"You are usually too careful and think too much. Now this illness is mostly due to mental illness." Mo Chen put down his pen and blew the ink on the paper: "Even if I don't have the ability to solve your troubles for you, if you If you are willing, you can also tell me what is on your mind, lest you blame yourself and worry yourself."
"I have nothing on my mind..."
But don't say that Mo Chen wouldn't believe it, even he himself felt that it was too perfunctory and insincere.
In fact, Ning Yu's mind is not difficult to guess.
Mo Chen guessed at least six or seven points.
Chaos frequently occurred in Tianji Mountain, Master Hu never went into the troubled waters, and his Banshan Hall was therefore in a detached position, and was not affected by the sect's infighting. But since the incident of Ning Yu's poisoning happened, the Banshan hall has also become chaotic. Those who attacked him were either outsiders or people from Banshan Hall. When the man was taken down by Master Hu, he looked resentful and unwilling, and said viciously: "What's the use of us cultivating all day long? Master's heart will always be biased. Ning Yu doesn't have to do anything, but any benefit will always be there." His. In the future, there will be no room for us in Banshan Hall!"
To put it bluntly, if you don't worry about being few, you will worry about unevenness. Others will be resentful because of the injustice in their hearts.
What shocked Ning Yu even more was that not only were the seniors jealous, but the seniors were also very aggrieved. All he thought was that he had no credit for the teacher and the Banshan Hall because of his illness, but took up a lot of elixir and treasures, and took away the attention of Daoist Hu.
There are so many disciples in Banshan Hall, but now there are only a few dozens of people following Master Hu down the mountain. Ning Yu's body was already weak after being poisoned, and his mind was heavy, so it would be strange if he didn't fall ill.
It was all because of him that the brothers and sisters turned against each other, and even caused the master to leave the sect at a young age and live abroad. And at this point, the master is still dragged down by him, and has to take great pains to take him to take care of him.
This made Ning Yu's thoughts of self-hate and self-abandon become more and more serious day by day.
It cannot be said that he was responsible for the current situation of the master and fellow disciples, but he definitely cannot get rid of it.
Of course, Mo Chen could see his thoughts.
Not only he could see it, but even Xiaodong could see it somewhat. Originally, Senior Brother Ning's poison was almost cured. On the day of Master's wedding, Ning Yu even wore a new dress to cheer him up, and he seemed to be all right. Unexpectedly, when the rain stopped and the sky cleared up, he fell ill.
Hu Zhenren really favors this apprentice, and often regrets that his body is not congenitally deficient, otherwise he must be the successor of his legacy, and he will never complain about Ning Yu. Even if the other Tianji Mountain disciples felt a little bit aggrieved, they would not say anything in front of him. But things in the world don't have to be told by others, especially Ning Yu, who is careful and thinks more than others. In the current situation, no matter how hospitable Huiliu Mountain is, the disciples of Tianji Mountain will inevitably have the feeling of being dependent on others, and they will inevitably frown and sigh.
"You don't have to have this sigh. If you have to find someone to take the blame, it's not you."
As soon as Mo Chen finished speaking, he heard someone at the door say: "That's right. If there is someone who is wrong in this matter, it must be me."
Ning Yu was taken aback, and stood up to worship: "Master."
He really didn't hear it, but Mo Chen heard that Master Hu was coming, but he didn't remind Ning Yu in advance.
Master Hu held Ning Yu to prevent him from getting up, and with this support, he touched a handful of bones.
"Lie down and rest quickly, and don't think about it all day long. When I took you in as a disciple, I promised your parents and relatives that I would protect you forever and take good care of you. I have devoted a lot of effort to you over the years, but your body and bones have always been It didn't improve much, but speaking of it, I owed the trust of the Ning family, and this was one of my faults."
"Secondly, your brothers and sisters have different aptitudes. As for temperament, some are flattering, while others are silent. Ten fingers stick out of different lengths. I really prefer you to be more important. A bowl of water is useless." Ping, this is my second mistake."
Ning Yu wanted to intervene, but Master Hu waved his hand to him: "Let me finish my speech. Tianji Mountain has been established for a long time, and the rift between the various branches is getting worse. As a teacher, I want to be wise and protect myself, but what is this? I can keep it? But if I had made calculations earlier, I wouldn’t have been so passive and been tricked by others. So it’s not your fault, nor your senior brothers’ fault, that we leave Tianji Mountain now. It’s for being a teacher. It’s for being too lazy and willful for being a teacher, which has caused you to suffer as well.”
Ning Yu's eyes were red: "What did the master say? Without the care and protection of the master, the disciple should have died as early as six or seven years old. Without the guidance of the master, how could the disciple know such a truth, but Banshantang met with a Difficulties, disciples can't help with anything other than slowing down..."
"Don't talk about dragging or not. I have never cared about the matter of Banshantang. I am lazy by nature, and I don't like to take care of these things. I always want to maintain the status quo and pass by. I don't blame you for this matter. I don’t blame other people either. If you have to suffer for this matter, not to mention your own life wasted, this matter will also become a regret for the rest of my life, and I am afraid that it will be impossible to improve my cultivation base in the future.”
Mo Chen slowed down and came out of the house to make room for Master Hu and his apprentice. Hu Zhenren came to comfort and persuade the disciples in person, of course it was more effective than Mo Chen's persuasion, and it was more convenient for them to talk without Mo Chen in front of him.
Just as Xiaodong boiled a pot of water, Mo Chen waved his hand at him, Xiaodong was not in a hurry to fetch tea leaves to warm teacups, and sat down in front of the stove with Mo Chen. (to be continued)
