Moonshine & Valentine: His Excellency’s First Love (Love Knot) - Chapter 37

Pippi’s eyes lit up and nodded: “Yes.”

“That was many years ago.” Su Mei’s eyelashes were very long, and she blinked twice like a doll. Pippi suspected that they were false eyelashes, but after a closer look, they turned out to be true.

“How many years?”

“Nine hundred years ago.”

Nine hundred years? That’s too old, right? Originally, Pippi felt that he was somewhat close to Hui Yan, so Hui Yan became a figure in the Song Dynasty. She only knew of a woman from the Song Dynasty, Li Qingzhao, and she still remembered that the teacher used a projector to show off the portrait during class, a middle-aged woman with a delicate appearance. Pippi shook his head, and the middle-aged woman immediately turned into a gray-haired skeleton.

Would such a person be Huiyan?

She was still wondering what Huiyan looked like, and Su Mei said: “Do you know the “True and Eternal Chaos”?”

She shook her head blankly.

“It’s no wonder that you didn’t know, your practice period is too short, this is a long story.” After that, Su Mei glanced at her watch subconsciously.

“Wait, let’s talk while eating.” Pippi graciously ran to the front desk and asked her for a glass of wine and a piece of cake: “Sister Mae Mei, please speak slowly and elaborate.”

She picked up the cake and took a bite: “You little girl, you dare to inquire about the lover’s past.”

“Isn’t it a family secret?”

“This is not universally known, but someone like us who has more than five hundred years must know it.” Su Mei shook the glass, and the ice cubes lightly burst in the honey-colored whiskey. She took a sip and left a bright red lip mark on the wine glass, “Helan’s mother is not from the fox clan, have you heard of this?”

“heard about it.”

“Human foxes are different species and cannot marry, so Helan was born with poor health and blindness. According to the rules of the clan, unhealthy chicks should be abandoned immediately after birth and let them fend for themselves.”

Pippi dumbly said: “Ah? Is it so cruel?”

“This is normal. Survival in the wild is extremely difficult. If he can’t prey on his own, no one can care about him. Before Xiuxian, the average annual mortality rate of foxes in nature was as high as 65 percent. There are more than 100,000 foxes run over by cars every year.-Strong ones may not survive, let alone disabled ones.”

I have never seen a dead fox, but in the season of Meng Chun, there are many small animals run over by cars on the road.

Thinking about it this way, Pippi had a strong sympathy: “Oh, that’s it!”

“However, Helan is the leader’s only son. Helan’s father-we call him Mr. Aoki-is very happy that he has gained his own blood in his lonely practice for thousands of years. Helan grew up next to him. , Enjoyed a long breastfeeding period. During this period, all the foraging was done by his father. The love is inevitable. He is always dissatisfied with this son and feels that his body and ability are very imperfect. , Unable to take over his supremacy–”

She paused, seeing Pippi resting her cheeks on her hands, watching herself with piercing eyes, listening with gusto. So he smiled slightly and continued: “So Helan started to practice cultivation earlier than any fox in history. He is very hardworking and attentive, and his skill grows rapidly. At the same time, his father sent someone to the world to hunt and provide for him. He is the raw material needed for cultivation. Normally, we need to practice for 50 years to get the initial human form. But Helan only cultivated for 17 years before he became a handsome young man. He doesn’t need his father to do it for him. , So he started the first hunt in his life.”

“Sister Mae Mei, what you mean by hunting is—” In order to clarify her doubts, Pippi pointed to her liver.

“Of course.” Su Mei nodded, “This action is of great significance. Because the first seventeen years of practice is a threshold. The vitality gained in these seventeen years determines his later practice skills and speed. For Helan , That year happened to be a year of Yang. If he met a woman with pure Yang gossip in that year and made her fall in love with himself, then, enjoying her liver on a day of pure Yang with eight characters will not Practicing is very beneficial. Specifically, it is very likely to make him see the light again.-This kind of opportunity is only once in his life.”

Pippi’s heart began to thump.

“So, Mr. Aoki’s attention to this matter has almost reached the point of paranoia. He personally searched for the target, and finally told Helan happily that he had selected a general’s girl named Shen Huiyan. She will be on the tenth of the first month. I went to the Lantern Festival Lantern Festival on the night of 5th. Helan heard the wind and went away. With his charm, he was naturally invincible. According to the people who accompanied him, the girl fell in love with him at first sight. The two quickly fell in love. During this period, Helan was not only reluctant to start, but he rarely went home and even avoided seeing his father. Mr. Aoki sent someone to urge him several times, but he deliberately delayed on the grounds of improper timing. Seeing the character of pure Yang One day was approaching, and his father saw that he hadn’t moved yet, so he issued an ultimatum and declared that he would come to him himself. So, as soon as Helan heard the news, he took the girl Shen to escape overnight.”

“He is very clever and hides his tracks everywhere. But the mountain is not as high as the sun. Three days later, he was found by someone sent by his father. They were both brought back. Helan was said to have suffered Asking his father to let Huiyan go, he would rather be blind for life. But Mr. Aoki sees all this as a sign of weakness. He hates people who are soft-hearted, so the more he thinks and the more angry, on the day of Chunyang He personally presided over the ritual. Once the ritual was over, he cut out the girl’s liver alive in front of Helan and the elders of the clan, and ordered him to eat immediately to prove that he was a qualified heir. ——According to those present, the girl deserves to be a descendant of the general’s family. She didn’t scream during the whole process. She died of pain for a while. She even said that if this could cure Helan’s eyes, she was very willing. ”

When the back of her hand was gently cooled, Pipi found herself dripping a tear, and her liver was aching. She felt a chill in her heart, and asked with a trembling: “Then…have Helan eaten it?”
