[Jianwang III] Caiwei Dongshan

Going south along the bottom of the cliff for a short distance, there is another small courtyard similar to the previous one, but on a larger scale, like a village.

Li Yuanliang stood at the door calling for someone, but a boy who appeared to be only seven or eight years old came out in response, and he called him "Brother Yuanliang".

Su Xueer raised her eyebrows in surprise, but Zeng Rong only nodded to the child.

Hearing that Li Yuanliang said that this was Xu Huai's fellow student, the child couldn't help being silent for a while, and then said after a while, "Under Yan Bu Sun, Mr. Xu is our benefactor...and he was buried here with us."

Zeng Rong said to him, "Please trouble me to lead the way for you." He did not despise him in the slightest because he is a child.

Yan Busun nodded and said, "Mr. Xu was buried behind the mountain." Then he turned and walked towards the village.

Su Xueer pulled Zeng Rong to follow, Li Yuanliang stayed where he was, neither followed nor left, hesitated for a while, sighed and stayed at the entrance of the village.

Although Yan Busun was young, his kung fu was good. He walked very fast all the way, but he still looked back from time to time to see if the two of them were keeping up.

Xu Huai and Zeng Rong belong to the same lineage of Xinglin, they specialize in medicine, they are good at self-protection, but they are far inferior to Yan Busun.

Zeng Rong was not able to keep up with him, but Su Xueer was there to help, but he did not fall behind.

Yan Busun could see it, he frowned slightly, and stopped.

Su Xueer stopped and asked, "What's wrong?"

"Are you really Mr. Xu's classmates?" Yan Busun asked with raised eyebrows.

Zeng Rong didn't know whether to laugh or cry, "Of course it's true. It's true that Junior Brother Xu Huai travels all over the world, but he often goes to places where communication is inconvenient, and he is not very famous. Why should we impersonate him?"

"Then why is his kung fu different from Mr. Xu's?" Yan Busun said while pointing at Su Xueer.

Hearing this, Zeng Rong grabbed Su Xueer's hand slightly.Su Xueer shook her hand back to reassure her, and then smiled wryly, "There are seven sages in Wanhua, and disciples can practice two kinds of mental methods. Sister Rong and Xu Huai are both under Master Sun's school, and they practice Lijing Yidao Heart method, specializing in medical skills. My master is a qin sage, and I have also practiced the method of wandering among flowers since I was a child, and I have rarely dabbled in the heart method of Lijing, but only in recent years have I asked sister Rong to teach me the way of medicine."

Zeng Rong said, "You may recognize Junior Brother Xu Huai's acupuncture? If you don't believe me, I'll give you Taisu Nine Needles once."

Yan Busun looked at Su Xueer again, shook his head and said, "No need, since you can trust him, I can too."

Su Xueer opened her mouth to speak, but Zeng Rong pulled him again, and said to Yan Busun, "That's good."

Yan Busun turned his head, took a few steps around, and said, "This is it."

The two followed him around the mountain wall in front of them, but it turned out to be a small waterfall with a pool at the bottom, with some duckweed floating on the water surface, the water quality was crystal clear, and the gray-green stones at the bottom of the pool shone in the waves. But no fish were seen.

"This is the source of water used by Shangguan to make wine for sacrifices. It is the best water on this island, and it can be regarded as our holy place." Yan Busun said, looking behind the waterfall, "The place where we live is called Qingshui Village. That’s how we came here. It’s just that this place was originally occupied by pirates, and those pirates went crazy for some reason a month ago, so we can come to fetch water. Mr. Xu was buried behind the waterfall.”

Zeng Rong looked at the water pool, and asked for a long while, "What can Junior Brother Xu Huai say?"

"Mr. Xu, he...he asked Brother Yuanliang to go to Onahama to find his friends, and he also said that he found what we wanted for us." Yan Busun said, a little sad.

Zeng Rong was silent, but turned around and said to Su Xueer, "Get some water and have a look."

Su Xueer nodded, and jumped towards the edge of the pool.But Zeng Rong asked Yan Busun who was staring at Su Xueer hesitatingly saying, "You said brewing wine for sacrifices, so you don't want to drink the water yourself?"

Yan Busun didn't know why, he was stunned for a moment, nodded and said, "Of course we don't drink the wine used to sacrifice to our father."

Zeng Rong breathed a sigh of relief, "Then what did Junior Brother Xu Huai say he was looking for for you?"

Yan Busun replied, "It's the blind medicine to cure Qiu Qiu's illness."

"Qiu Qiu?" Zeng Rong repeated the name and smiled slightly, "I'll go and see her later."

While talking, Su Xueer came back from the water with a bamboo tube in her hand, and said, "Sister Rong, I see that there is nothing wrong with the water."

"They know the water is good, so the pirates naturally know it too." Zeng Rong took the bamboo tube and said, "Go back to the village and have a look at those bars."

Seeing that they were about to return to the village, Yan Busun asked in surprise, "You...don't take Mr. Xu back?"

Zeng Rong's expression darkened, and he said, "Junior Brother Xu Huai... he is also an orphan. If he talks about home, he is Guli. But he said that he is willing to go to places where medical treatment is not available." Said At this point, Zeng Rong smiled at Yan Busun, "You need him, right? Then let him stay here."

Yan Busun was stunned when he heard the words, but in the end he didn't know what to say, so he just nodded and took the two of them back to the village.

Su Xueer went to Shangguan Yin to ask for wine, Zeng Rong followed Yan Busun to find Qiu Qiu.

When Li Yuanliang stayed in the village waiting for someone, he told the "children" in the village about Zeng Rong's background. When Su Xueer went to beg for wine, Shangguan Yin was quite chattering.

"The water this time is stronger than before! The aroma of this wine is even better!" Shangguan Yin boasted while opening the wine tank, "Although only the water has been changed, it is completely different from the previous wine! "

Su Xueer frowned and looked into the wine tank, "You said that this wine is much worse than before, only by changing the water in the pool on the mountain?"

Shangguan Yin nodded blankly and said, "Yes."

Su Xueer said seriously, "Don't drink this wine yet. I'll bring some to Sister Rong."

Shangguan Yin asked in surprise, "Is there a problem with the wine?"

"I don't know yet." Su Xueer shook her head.

Shangguan Yin said, "Wait a minute, I'll get you some."

Su Xueer wanted to say that I am taller and easier to scoop up, but hesitated for a while, but didn't say it.

Shangguan Yin neatly picked up a stool, stepped on it, just enough to reach the mouth of the wine vat, and scooped out a bowl for Su Xueer.

Su Xueer thanked him, then went to find Zeng Rong, Shangguan Yin called him at the door of his house, told him to tell him the result, and Su Xueer agreed.

But he said that Zeng Rong had taken Qiu Qiu's pulse, and there was nothing abnormal except that he was weak. He smiled and said to the little girl, "Senior brother Xu Huai has cured your illness, and you will be able to live well. Don't be sad and happy, and you will be fine." .Just looking at your body, it seems that you have stuffed a lot of medicine indiscriminately. Don't do this in the future."

Qiu Qiu nodded embarrassedly and said, "Understood, thank you sister."

Zeng Rong stroked the top of her hair affectionately, and looked towards the door.

Just as Su Xueer walked in with the bowl of wine, following his movements, a burst of wine fragrance permeated the room.

Zeng Rong sniffled and said in surprise, "This...how can there be such a scent?"

Su Xueer asked in surprise, "What is it?"

Zeng Rong smiled wryly, "I'm afraid only the master and senior brother will know what it is. I only smelled it once when the master was dispensing the medicine, but the master said that the medicine is useless."

"It's useless... But Shangguan Yinfang just said that the difference between the wine brewed before and this time is only water." Su Xueer also frowned in confusion.

Zeng Rong took out the bamboo tube that was soaked in the pool water again, and examined it carefully, but finally shook his head dejectedly, "I...I still can't see the problem."

Su Xueer said, "You can't know everything. Even among Master Sun's disciples, there is only one senior brother who is 'the living will not be healed'."

Zeng Rong pressed the center of his brows, closed his eyes slightly, thought about something carefully, and suddenly said, "There are no fish in that pool."

Su Xueer froze for a moment, nodded and said, "I really didn't see any fish."

"That's the problem with the pool." Zeng Rong sighed, "I'd better take it back for Master to see."

Qiu Qiu sat on the edge of the bed and listened for a while, then interjected, "Did something happen in the village?"

Zeng Rong shook his head at her with a smile, and said, "It's not about this village. Is Yan Busun the head of your village?"

Qiu Qiu shook his head and said, "It's Yan... Sima Yan is in charge."

Zeng Rong nodded and said to her, "You rest first, I have other things to do."

Qiu Qiu nodded obediently, watched Zeng Rong pull Su Xueer out of the room, closed his eyes and smiled wryly.How I want to be with him, just like you...but...

She lowered her head and smiled ugly, as if she was crying, but there was clearly no tear.

Zeng Rong and Su Xueer found Sima Yan, who was in charge, and told her that the water in the pool behind the mountain was not drinkable, and then went back to the small courtyard with Li Yuanliang to clean up the things left by Xu Huai.

Before leaving, Sima Yan saw Zeng Rong's depressed mood, and persuaded her, "Miss, don't blame yourself. If it was just us, we wouldn't have noticed the water problem so early."

Zeng Rong just shook his head, looked at her for a while, and said, "Our boat is big, do you want to go back to Datang with us?"

"Datang?" Sima Yan was stunned for a moment, then shook his head with a smile, "Thank you for your kindness, but Father is here, this is our home." She said with a bitter smile, "Besides, we What are we going to do when we go back? Are we being treated as monsters? Or are we being treated as something else? But we are only human.”

Hearing this, Zeng Rong remembered what the boatman who brought them here said, after a moment of silence, he said, "I was the one who was abrupt."

Sima Yan smiled and shook his head, "Young lady also has a kind heart."

Zeng Rong shook his head slightly, "Eldest brother is here too, if he is free in a few days, I will invite him to come and see."

"Then I would like to thank you, Miss." Sima Yan thanked with a smile, and watched the three go away.

"Go...go back..." Sima Yan chewed on Zeng Rong's words, shook his head and smiled, "Where are we going back? I've forgotten what home is like..."
