Chapter 1308 1308: Legacy of the Ancestors (Part 1) [Please vote for me]
In private relationships, Chu Yao has always been a soft-hearted person.
As long as it does not affect the lord's royal dominance, he will lend a helping hand to his old friends as much as possible. He waved his hand: "How can you and I talk about this? But if I can help, I will do my best. As for your body, you might as well let the doctors take a look."
Chu Yao is a person who pays attention to promises.
Due to his own fault, the engagement contract could not be counted, and he could still make up for it elsewhere. Is there any reason not to agree to an old friend and his descendants? Chu Yao took off his personal token and asked the guards to take it to invite the Xinglin doctor to come to the door, and then asked someone to clean the guest house.
Faced with this kind hospitality, my old friend was flattered.
A pair of tiger eyes full of vicissitudes of life were filled with mist at some point.
He turned his back and blinked before holding back his tears, so as not to be rude in front of others: "Oh, I couldn't help you back then."
At that time, I was unable to provide help in times of need, but now I am receiving kindness from the other party.
Alas, it really puts him to shame.
"When heaven assigns a great responsibility to a person, he must first work hard for his mind and body... Tsk, if the destined hardships are all for a moment of darkness, it is actually worth it." After so many years, Chu Yao has long let go of the past, and will not mention it again. That encounter was uneventful. Maybe it was because his body took the initiative to downplay the pain, or maybe it was because his mind had been refined and he was stronger than before.
Nightmares no longer scare him.
"This is my fate, how can I blame others?" He was worried that his old friend had not eaten yet, so he asked Chef Dong to prepare fine wine and delicacies, and then sent someone to pick him up at his temporary residence. When the person was picked up, Doctor Xinglin had just completed the diagnosis, and the situation was not optimistic.
The doctor was putting away his pulse pillow: "The chronic disease is in the meridians of Danfu, and it is an old injury. When I was young, I could suppress it with martial energy, but as I grow older, the body texture declines, and the hidden dangers are exposed. Mr. Old There are at least six kinds of martial energy entangled in the Dan Mansion, and the foundation of the martial palace will collapse, seriously damaging the lifespan. If it is not treated, the end will be within two months. "
My old friend admires me from the bottom of my heart.
He recovered quickly from injuries he suffered in his early years, and his activities and cultivation were not affected, so he naively thought he was doing well. He didn't know that there were so many hidden dangers until a bottleneck was broken through, which was extremely dangerous. It is difficult to eradicate it again. It has been delayed year by year, until now it is almost exhausted. He was not surprised to hear that the deadline was within these two months, and it was basically consistent with his judgment.
Seeing that Chu Yao was about to say something, his old friend chuckled in relief and said, "You don't have to be sad. I knew that such a day would come seven or eight years ago. My descendants are quite filial. The only one I can't worry about is my unconscious one." My great-granddaughter, Wu Hui, has promised to take care of her for me. What regrets do I have? She is over eighty and has lived two or three lifetimes, that’s enough.”
How many people can live to be over eighty in troubled times?
As a courageous warrior, his talent was considered mediocre. When he was young, he would be anxious. He was always nervous and worried that one day he would die unexpectedly or be shrouded in horse leather. Looking back now, how many geniuses died before him during the same period?
As for enemies?
Not to mention the weeds on the graves, there are very few graves.
Chu Yao said: "Why be pessimistic? You might as well listen to the doctor's advice."
The old friend choked.
As a special profession that only appeared in recent years, Xinglin Medical Doctor’s two biggest characteristics are its rarity and mystery.
My old friend has lived in seclusion for many years. As a white man, he is only better than ordinary people and has no access to Xinglin doctors. He had only heard about how powerful Xinglin's medical skills were, and had no idea how powerful they were. He never thought that Xinglin's medical skills could cure his stubborn illness.
Physician Xinglin: "Xiaguan's medical skills are not good, and there is no guarantee that this stubborn disease can be completely cured at the moment. However, it is not difficult to remove the alien martial energy from the Dan Mansion. With the help of the decoction to strengthen the essence, as long as the old gentleman does not fight with others at will and injure himself." The meridians can prolong life for at least seven or eight years. During this period, the old man will make a breakthrough, or his medical skills will improve, and it may be eradicated. "
As long as you live first, your medical skills and strength will always improve.
As long as there is a breakthrough, a hundred years will be within reach.
The old friend was so ecstatic that he was almost speechless.
This state of affairs did not last long.
After all, he is a veteran who has experienced hundreds of battles. He has seen too many storms and waves, and he gritted his teeth and suppressed his joy. After spending his whole life to calm down, he said to Chu Yao and the doctor Xinglin with choked sobs: "I can't repay the kindness of saving my life, please accept my courtesy!"
After saying that, he stood up and gave a big salute.
Naturally, the two of them didn't accept it: "What are you doing?"
For Chu Yao, old friends are very rare existences.
Isn't it a relief to him that his old friend is alive and well?
And test new tea with new fire.
Poetry and wine take advantage of the youth.
The great-granddaughter had reliable support, and her life span was extended from two months to seven or eight years. The haze that weighed on her old friend was swept away by an invisible breeze. He only felt that the sky was clear, the sun was bright and the wind was gentle, and even the air was filled with a sweet fragrance.
When you are in a good mood, your mind will naturally open up.
The guard came in and reported that the guest had been received.
The old friend was overjoyed and said, "Wuhui, come and see my baby."
After saying that, he suddenly remembered something, and his smile became a little more mysterious: "Don't be too surprised when you see someone."
These words aroused Chu Yao's curiosity.
He has met countless people of all kinds over the years. No matter whether they are beautiful, ugly, fat or thin, in his eyes they are just a skeleton wrapped in a skin, nothing special. What is so strange about this great-granddaughter of my old friend that she can make me so surprised that I lose my composure? Until he saw the other person.
"Come, I've met your Uncle Chu."
During the Bei Mo battlefield, his son was his deputy general, and he was the first to know Chu Yao. The two were equals. Afterwards, he met Chu Yao and fell in love with his old friend.
The father and son have different relationships with Chu Yao. The great-granddaughter can call Chu Yao uncle or great-uncle. When my old friend is in a good mood, he wants to take advantage of Chu Yao and make him a generation shorter...
Chu Yao's young and handsome face is not suitable for being called too old.
Even so, Chu Yao was stuck for a moment.
Uncle, this is the oldest seniority he has ever heard of.
When the girl turned her face, Chu Yao only felt that she looked familiar, and for a moment he forgot how to respond: "You, my great-granddaughter, have a kind face."
The girl also bowed her head and said, "I have met my uncle."
The old friend took the great-granddaughter’s hand and asked, “Take a closer look?”
Chu Yao took a few more careful looks: "She..."
The old friend knew immediately that he recognized her and said with emotion: "This child has the legacy of her maternal grandfather and grandmother."
He can also be regarded as an old friend of Chu Yao.
At that time, the Chu State had three outstanding figures.
Except for Chu Yao, the other two people all ended up miserable. The family was exterminated, the family was ransacked, and the surviving heirs were living in a foreign country, not knowing whether they were alive or dead. It was probably fate that one of the descendants was met by him and married to his grandson.
It's just that he suffered too much on the road of exile, and his body was seriously exhausted. He passed away not long after giving birth to his daughter, and his grandson also became ill from worry and died two years ago. The great-granddaughter has no father or mother, and life is difficult for her family members, so her old friend is soft-hearted and keeps the child close to her.
The child is precocious and has excellent understanding.
If he hadn't been trapped in the body of a daughter, he might have been a proud son of heaven with a second-grade Chinese heart. It's just that extreme wisdom will inevitably lead to injury. People who are too smart tend to work hard and become exhausted of energy and blood. My old friend wishes she could be duller and less aware of external harm.
If you don't feel pain, it won't be too painful.
Ignorance is sometimes a blessing.
The girl nodded: "Yes."
"Her bone age is such that people with ordinary talents can no longer detect it. She actually still has it - it's such a pity. If it had been a few years earlier..." Judging from the style of her bun, the girl has already grown hairpins. Her bone age shows that she is nineteen years old. This Age wastes too much talent. If you can enlighten and practice at the best time, you may really have a second-grade qualification, and now you can only make up for it. The old friend said: "I delayed her."
There is a lack of private information sources. Even though Shen Tang in the northwest is making a big fuss, leading his troops into the southwest, and now he is trying to occupy the whole territory, the lowest level actually doesn't know much. He was living in seclusion, and he knew it no matter how late the news in the market was. Even when Chu Yao came out again, he was a friend, and he didn't know until he mentioned it to him by chance. After hearing Chu Yao's words, one can imagine the regret in his heart. The person present who had the calmest reaction was the girl herself.
She said: "Great-grandfather, why should we blame ourselves? Everyone has his or her own destiny, and it is better to be born at the right time than to be born at the wrong time. When the younger generation heard that Kang Guo's servant became famous, she had been a married woman for many years and had a daughter. Not longer than the juniors? It’s never too late.”
Chu Yao smiled openly: "That's exactly the reason."
Mental state and understanding are the most important on the path of cultivation.
The girl is transparent at first glance.
One day of enlightenment can be worth ten years of hard work for others.
It’s never too late, I’m afraid I haven’t even started yet.
The old friend sighed deeply, not very understanding.
Chu Yao's satisfaction with his great-granddaughter was a reassurance, at least he had a good start. He wanted to tell Chu Yao some things in advance to prevent Chu Yao from being deceived by his great-granddaughter's innocent and kind appearance, so he emphasized that she had some ancestral heritage.
This "legacy" does not refer to talent.
To put it simply, it is a bit immoral.
Chu Yao: "..."
The old friend said with embarrassment: "If she is lucky enough to get your guidance in the future, you should let her practice her mind more. I wonder if it is because she has lived in isolation for many years and followed an old man like me. Her human nature is a little different from ordinary people. It is really... "
"Different from ordinary people?"
"A while ago, I encouraged an old woman to divide the bodies of her children."
Chu Yao: "???"
It sounds scary at first, but sounds familiar the second time.
Isn't this the trigger of this turmoil?
Chu Yao asked: "What's your idea?"
The girl smiled and raised her eyebrows: "What do you think, uncle?"
Chu Yao did not comment: "How did you think of it?"
“Don’t bet that people’s hearts are good, but bet that people’s hearts are evil.”
"It really has the legacy of our ancestors."
The girl shook her head and said: "If this junior generation were them, they would never end up being quartered in the execution ground. If our ancestors really believed that all human beings are evil, how could they sincerely believe in a cowardly, mediocre, mean and ungrateful lord? If we were really on guard, we would not be accidentally caught. It’s not worth dying to lose such talent in the opponent’s hands.”
It is foolish loyalty to insist on one's own opinion even though one knows that something is wrong.
It is foolish to affect the whole family for the sake of mediocrity.
Her great-grandfather always said that she had the legacy of her ancestors, but after getting to know her better, she felt that the evaluation was untrue and she even thought that her great-grandfather was joking.
The girl's words were actually unpleasant. For Chu Yao, an old friend who knew her ancestors, they really couldn't gain any favor, or even lose her favor. She knew this but still wanted to tell the truth.
Chu Yao's reaction was beyond the girl's expectation.
"The authorities are confused, but the bystanders are clear. The chess player can see the overall situation, but the chess pieces can only see one side if they are stuck in the game." Chu Yao sighed, "This is one, and the other is that you regard the scribes as too powerful. The second grade is on No matter how good the Chinese heart is, he is just a commoner with some small tricks. He cannot resist a royal court, even a big one. "
I can see clearly but I can't escape.
Those weirdos in Kang State are heretics.
"The third is that it is hard to leave your homeland. Although the Chu State is small, it is also your hometown. You were born and raised in a foreign land, so naturally you do not understand the significance of the Chu State to your ancestors. Some good birds choose trees to live in, while others stubbornly want to save the building. Even if you die in vain, you will have no regrets."
For such people, life is of least value.
You can disagree, but you can't be wrong either.
Chu Yao can understand.
If Kang Guo reaches that stage, he is willing to die for his country.
There was a trace of trance in the girl's eyes.
Chu Yao said gently: "Don't think too much, it's all over."
"You're tired after a long journey, but you're hungry? The chef has been prepared, let's eat first." Chu Yao didn't expect that the person who came up with the idea would be the heir of his old friend, and the matter was not urgent. He planned to talk to the Lord tomorrow. When he sat down, The **** delivered several large boxes.
The box contains some specialties.
Most of them are not very expensive, but they clearly have a lot of thought.
Chu Yao patted his forehead: "Look at my memory."
He almost forgot that he also had a disciple named Tu Rong, whose age matched the girl. He was his son-in-law and could fulfill his engagement with his friend. But he was not prepared to mention it directly. The marriage of children still depends on fate. His two and a half apprentices, Tu Rong, Lin Feng and Yu Zi, except for Yu Zi who made some moves and then died, the other two were obviously not very enlightened.
It depends on fate.
Judging from his many years of single experience, single life with a son and a daughter is indeed comfortable. Just as he was thinking about it, his half-grown son came to the door with his friends. As soon as they arrived at the gate, a loud voice was heard in the hall: "Teacher, look what I brought you?"
Chu Yao said to his old friend, "It's my disciple who is showing off his honor."
The old friend's eyes suddenly lit up.
"Disciple?"
He was obviously a little tempted.
The girl was indifferent to this.
When the young man came in, his old friend's eyes were even brighter, and he just had to write "This is the great-grandson-in-law of my dream" on his face!
Ignoring the fact that there was someone following behind the young man.
But Chu Yao noticed him at a glance and stood up to greet him.
"Why are you here, Master Hou?"
The old friend was confused and recalled who this person was from Kangguo.
It has been many years since the founding of Kang State, but the number of people who hold titles can be counted on one hand, completely forgetting that the "Marquis" of the other party may be because of their own strength. Gongyang Yongye said: "Give your apprentice a diagnosis."
Chu Yao: "..."
No, Gong Yang Yongye’s medical skills are not specialized in andrology?

I want to scold the fruit shop in my community. I bought a bag of oranges and when I peeled them, three of the ten oranges tasted wrong.
