Heartless Phoenix Queen - C235
How he wished that when his beard turned white, the one accompanying him would still be Zi Yuan. He was truly worried if the Violet Garden would not want him anymore. Then he remembered that his eldest son and eldest daughter had come into the world a year ago, in the heat, almost.
He swore that before the two children could speak, he would take over the world. By now, the two children should have started to learn from each other, but he was stuck in a difficult situation. Even though his tendons had been reattached, his internal and external injuries still needed some time to heal. Moreover, if it wasn’t for the fact that he was lucky and met someone powerful, he would have died as Murong Xiu had wished.
He even thought that if he were to die, would Zi Yuan die because of a misunderstanding? Would she not forgive him even if he died? In the end, she would really give herself up to Murong Xiu …
As he stood there thinking, he didn’t even notice that the old couple had already finished washing their clothes and were returning to the cave.
“Youngster, it’s easy to get distracted like this, but easy to get ambushed by enemies.” the little old man said with a smile.
Helian Lie bowed respectfully to the two of them. “Junior, thank you, seniors, for saving my life!”
“You’re welcome. It’s fate that we met each other.” The little old man was somewhat unable to bear these courtesies.
The old lady gave the little old man all his clothes, and with no effort she pulled Helian affectionately into the cave. “Child, what do you want to eat now? “You’ve slept for several days already. How about this grandma makes you a bowl of porridge with the sharp end of a spicy bamboo shoot? What do you think?”
“Thank you granny …” Hearing the old granny’s words, Helian really felt hungry in his stomach. “Granny, how many days have I slept?”
“Yeah, I thought you wouldn’t wake up!” The old man was drying his clothes by the tree at the entrance to the cave.
Seeing those clothes, Helian Lie suddenly remembered. He lowered his head to look at the clothes on his body. “My clothes …” “It seems to fit …”
“Do you like it?” The old granny who was busying herself on the stove turned around and asked with a smile.
“Yeah, I really like it …” Helian replied. Every time he spoke to the old granny, he could not help but answer her gently.
“This was made for you by my wife!” The little old man was especially proud when he said this. “My wife’s needlework is the best in the world!”
“Old man, you’re talking nonsense again.” The old granny protested coquettishly. Although the old granny was quite old, her coquettish tone did not sound strange at all. Instead, it made people feel that she was coquettish and soft.
Helian Lie muttered to himself repeatedly before deciding to raise the question within his heart. “This junior has something that I would like to ask of you two seniors.”
“Ai, I say, can you not speak like that? My old man can’t stand this. You weren’t so proper before!” the little old man protested.
“Alright …” Helian Hong was helpless. “I want to ask, what is the name of these two seniors?”
“Me? I’m someone who can change my name without changing it. So can Xue Mingrui!” The little old man casually replied as he dried his clothes outside the cave, “I don’t need to say my wife’s name, but a girl’s name must be kept a secret!” The old man even winked mischievously.
“Xue …” “Ming Rui?!” Helian Lie was shocked. “You’re the one I heard of when I was young, Divine Doctor Xue?!”
“I dare not call myself a genius doctor,” Xue Mingrui proudly said. “However, I am still very confident in my medical skills.”
“But the rumors are not true. Have you died?” Helian Lie widened his eyes in disbelief as he looked at Divine Doctor Xue who was drying his clothes.
“You said it was a rumor. Is that true?” Xue Mingrui shook his head proudly. “If I die, won’t you die as well?”
Helian speechless.
Seeing that Helian had been deflated, the old granny interrupted and said, “My name is not a secret.”
Xue Mingrui immediately looked like he wanted to speak, but the old granny had already slowly said her name. “My name is Fu Ren, which is why my old man especially likes to call me ‘Madam’. Sometimes he would even call me ‘Madam Fu Ren’, but it actually sounds the same.”
Xue Mingrui very cooperatively chuckled a few times at this time, agreeing.
“My maiden name.” The old granny suddenly paused, glanced at Helian, then went to the stove to add firewood. “It’s Helian.”
Helian Lie was even more surprised this time. He had never heard of Divine Doctor Xue marrying any of his family members.
“Speaking of which, you really should call me Grandma.” While they were talking, the porridge had already been prepared. Helian Fen beckoned Helian to come to the table to eat, then went to the depths of the cave and took out a bamboo dish from the jar in the cold spring water. The plate was filled with spicy and sour bamboo shoot tips.
“I’m your great-aunt.” Helian Fen put her sharp and sour bamboo shoot tip on the table. “But your father and your grandfather probably never told you about me.”
“…” Grandma, do you know who I am? ” Helian pointed to his nose.
At this moment, Divine Doctor Xue, who had finished drying his clothes, walked in and fished out a small seal from his body.
“Ah, this is my seal.” Helian realized that they must have found the little seal hidden inside when they were dressing him.
“I’m very happy.” The old granny also scooped a bowl of porridge for Divine Doctor Xue and then scooped a bowl for herself. “I’m really satisfied that I was able to meet the Helian Family’s child in my lifetime.”
Helian Lie scratched his head in embarrassment. In his heart, he finally understood why this old granny of his had always had such an inexplicable feeling of intimacy with him. So it was the act of blood ties. At this moment, he felt that he was no longer the ruler of a country, but an ordinary person. When he met his own aunt, he couldn’t help but want to be doted on by his elders.
If Divine Doctor Xue could be said to be healing Helian’s body, then Helian Furen was healing Helian Xuan Yi’s wounded heart. When talking to Granny Furen, Helian always had a feeling of being bathed in spring breeze, and his entire body and mind would relax.
The three of them happily drank rice porridge and ate the sour and spicy bamboo shoot tips made by Fu Ren herself. After eating three bowls of porridge, Xue Mingrui burped and said, “From today onwards, I’ve decided to take you as my disciple. In the afternoon, you can learn the Pure Yuan Palm from me!”
This jump was so big that Helian Lie almost couldn’t react.
“Are you sure you want to teach Little Wing?” Ever since she mentioned that she was Helian’s great-aunt, she started calling Helian “Little Yi”. This nickname inexplicably poked a soft spot in Helian’s heart, giving birth to more trust in Fu Ren.
“Since the heavens want me to retrieve this child, I hope that my Pure Yuan palm will not be lost to me.” Xue Mingrui said, “Learn medicine. This kid is a bit old, but he should still be able to learn the Pure Yuan Palm. After all, he still has a foundation.”
In the afternoon, Xue Mingrui took He out of the cave. He led him under the endless waterfall and asked him to find a sense of meditation in the noisy waters.
No matter what, Helian’s heart could not calm down. Naturally, it was impossible for him to enter a meditative state. When night fell, Helian still did not find the feeling of meditation.
Divine Doctor Xue didn’t feel disappointed, but patted his shoulder and said, “Young man, don’t think too complicated. This world is very simple! Come on, we’ll come back in the morning. ”
Divine Doctor Xue and his wife did not have the habit of eating dinner at night, but after Helian had finished drinking the medicinal soup, they felt a little hungry. What was even more disappointing was that his stomach was still singing loudly about the empty city stratagem.
Fu Ren laughed and took out the pastries he had prepared earlier, “Child, you should talk about it when you’re hungry. I thought you didn’t say you wanted to eat when you came in.” These pastries, ah, I specially went to the village in the afternoon to buy them. The taste is not bad, I’ve always kept them on the stove, hurry up and eat them. ”
Helian began to wolf down his food. In the palace, he was the oldest. He ordered everything he wanted directly, not to mention telling others what he wanted politely. When he was with the Violet Garden, he would occasionally speak frankly about what he wanted … However, he was only a guest in this cave, so it was indeed embarrassing for him to say what he wanted.
“Little Yi, you really don’t need to be courteous to Grandma.” Fleur reminded Helian again.
The next day, just as dawn broke, Xue Mingrui pulled Helian out of bed and led him to the waterfall.
This time, Xue Mingrui taught him a way to breathe. Helian Lie tried it out and gradually entered a state of emptiness. The feeling of wanting to enter a meditative state came. However, with a turn of his mind, he came out from that feeling again.
“Master …” However, every time he called out, he felt a little awkward in his heart for some reason. Perhaps it was because he had always been proud and arrogant in his life, but besides calling the person who had taught him martial arts as his “teacher,” he had never called anyone else his “master.”
“I feel like I just found a way to meditate.” He told Xue Mingrui.
Xue Mingrui, who was fishing nearby, didn’t even look up. He only said, “Then continue. If you’re in a meditative state, try your best not to come out. Use the same method as before to cultivate.”
Helian agreed, thinking, Can we really catch fish under the curtain? His eyes were fixated on Xue Mingrui’s fishing rod. It was quite strange. Looking at it like this, Helian actually entered that state of meditation again.
By the time he walked out, it was already noon. This time, Xue Mingrui was extremely happy and repeatedly praised him as “a child worthy of being taught”. Helian carried the fish basket for him and discovered that there really were two fish inside!
There was braised fish and tofu fish soup for lunch. Helian had not eaten meat for a long time and was enjoying his meal. Fu Ren looked at him and laughed. “Don’t be impatient. Eat slower …” “There’s more …”
During this period of time, Helian was like a completely different person compared to the cold and arrogant Helian. This was something that couldn’t be helped. If someone experienced great joy and great sorrow and then personally went through the gates of hell, their personality would change. It was just a matter of becoming more and more ever-changing.
At this moment, Helian was in a rare atmosphere of family warmth. Naturally, he appeared different from being in a complicated political environment. After all, in this paradise, he did not need to think about such complicated and complicated matters.
Every day, he would meditate under the waterfall, allowing his heart that had always been proud to gradually find its way back to reality. He felt that his heart had become even more powerful than before. If it was said that he was a man with a strong heart before, then he was now a man with a strong heart. When he was sensing the spiritual Qi of Heaven and Earth, not only did he feel that his zhenqi had been purified, but his soul had also been elevated to a whole new level.
