Old Man Tang took a sip of his wine and said, "If the ship loses its anchor, it will float to nowhere. If the god loses its incense, then the god will perish."
He paused: "And if a person does not have any care in the world, he will lose his humanity. He who has no humanity is not a human being. He regards all things as stupid dogs and his life is in ruins."
He drank slowly: "To the old man, you are not some shallow white moonlight. You are his anchor, his incense, and more likely the bit of humanity he has deliberately preserved."
"That's why he won't live in the world in a way that eliminates humanity. You should know that with his skills and abilities, without the restraints of humanity, he can completely destroy the world, with rivers of blood flowing and wars everywhere."
Ming Lanruo was horrified by what he said, but she somehow felt that Old Man Tang was right.
She looked at Old Man Tang blankly: "But I...but I don't know..."
How could she have such a strange and heavy meaning for Cang Qiao?
"Forget it, you don't hate him anyway, so just stay with him and respect his 'humanity'. He won't treat you badly." Old Man Tang chuckled.
Ming Lanruo was speechless for a moment. At this time, the little eunuchs also served Cang Qiao, who changed into a black cloud satin uniform and entered the door.
He sat down with a cold expression: "What are you talking about? Who is inhumane?"
"Of course it's you little beast!" Old Man Tang snorted at him rudely.
Cang Qiao narrowed her eyes dangerously: "You are impatient..."
Ming Lanruo couldn't help but grabbed Cang Qiao's wrist on the table and interrupted them: "Okay, let's check his pulse! Mr. Tang, please see if his pulse is more stable than before!"
If Mr. Tang continues to talk, he will either be killed or thrown into a leprosy village again.
Mr. Tang reluctantly checked Cang Qiao's pulse. For a quarter of an hour, his expression was strange and complicated.
Ming Lanruo waited nervously: "How is it?"
Mr. Tang stroked his beard with a look of displeasure on his face: "It's really stabilized a lot. Fortunately, you have a little girl to stabilize your condition. The medicinal bath is a good way to soothe your nerves."
Ming Lanruo nodded: "But, after all, I am not good at studying. My master is not here, otherwise I should use the Miao medicine cage steaming method."
Mr. Tang suddenly smiled and said: "I remember you mentioned that your master is Grandma Agu, right?"
Ming Lanruo nodded: "Yes!"
Mr. Tang suddenly jumped up and ran out the door: "Don't move here, I'll go and come back!"
Seeing Mr. Tang disappear outside the door in an instant, Ming Lanruo was confused: "..."
This old man really means what he says.
She and Cang Qiao were the only ones left in the Nuan Pavilion for a while.
For some reason, facing Cang Qiao's dark and cold eyes, she suddenly remembered Mr. Tang's words——
She is the "humanity" he deliberately retains
She wanted to ask him why, but in the end she didn't know how to ask.
But Cang Qiao suddenly said calmly: "Bring Xiao Xi here tomorrow. Old Man Tang has brought some specialties to eat, some children will like them."
Ming Lanruo was stunned for a moment, and a trace of emotion and complexity flashed in his eyes.
She smiled: "Okay."
He is such a smart person, how could he not understand what she meant when she told him Xiaoxi's full name.
Ming Lanruo looked at him and suddenly said: "I think, maybe, you can tell me what happened that night five years ago."
If he had a guess in his mind, then she might be able to ask him directly what he saw that night.
She no longer wanted to make suspicions because of Yun Ni. This chapter has been completed!
