Shen Tang's words made Chu Yao pause, but he quickly returned to normal, and the slight bitterness on his face turned into calmness: "In life, you always have to believe in something to survive, or to comfort yourself. This is just a 'gentleman' Hide the weapon in your body and use it when the time comes."
Otherwise, life would be too difficult.
He endured this day after day, and it was all his hard work.
It has been fifteen years since he was replaced by Wen Xin a year before he was crowned, and he had that dream, and then he was displaced several times.
Shen Tang sighed: "But this is too painful."
Obviously there is no need to endure so much hardship. Instead of sticking to an unreliable "prophecy", it is better to take the current path.
Chu Yao shook his head and said nothing.
Has he really never wavered in the face of reality?
Naturally impossible.
He is just an ordinary person, and he will be shaken when faced with endless hardships, more than once.
But every time there were signs of wavering, he was snuffed out by himself. Firstly, his temper did not allow him to give up halfway, and secondly, that dream was the only time in his life that he used the "Way of the Scribes". Regardless of the results and his destiny, How to be willing?
We can know destiny and solve stubborn diseases...
If the prediction on the prescription in the dream comes true, it means that his life will be truly changed and he will be able to find peace and prosperity instead of wallowing and crawling in the mud at the bottom of the world with a low status all his life.
The only thing I didn't expect was——
Chu Yao tilted his head slightly and peeked at Shen Tang secretly.
Wulang was far from the destiny he imagined.
The destiny he thinks is either a heroic overlord, a reckless bandit, or a knight-errant... That person should be open-minded and free-spirited by nature, not stick to trivial matters, not be concerned about family status, not be partial, and not stupid enough to think that scribes are not If you have a Wenxin, you are worthless, and you don't mind letting a "low-class person" like him show his talents.
However, there is always a discrepancy between reality and ideals.
This Tianming who is riding on the back of a white mule looks like a young man of eleven or twelve years old who is inexperienced in the world. At first glance, it is inconsistent with the plans he has deduced and made countless times over the years.
It is indeed a bit lively, innocent and simple.
Shen Tang didn't have the ability to peer into people's hearts, so he naturally didn't know what Chu Yao was thinking about for such a short time.
Wu Zi muttered: "Ginseng, rhubarb, aconite, rehmannia glutinosa... these should be the four treasures of medicinal materials, right? Does it refer to the Four Treasures County?"
Coincidentally, Xiaocheng is the county seat of Sibao County.
Chu Yao said lightly: "Yeah."
Shen Tang realized.
"Then I understand how to interpret this prescription."
Yuehua Sanliang is the easiest to understand.
On the surface, it sounds like a strange medicinal explanation - because according to the properties of general medicinal prescriptions, the so-called "moon blossom" should be the morning dew on leaves or petals that absorbs enough of the essence of the lunar yin.
Collect three liang and use it as a medicine for torment.
But it can also be explained from another angle.
Yuehua can refer to Yuehua Tower, and three ounces may have other explanations. However, Chu Yao believed that three ounces refers to "three ounces of silver to redeem oneself," hence the previous sentence, but she was still a little puzzled.
"What is destiny? What is a stubborn disease? Just based on the literal interpretation, I think I am the 'destiny'. But I don't have medical skills, so how can I cure a stubborn disease? Is there another chance?"
Chu Yao lowered his eyes and said quietly: "I don't know."
"I really don't know?"
Chu Yao's expression was as usual: "I don't know."
Shen Tang didn't ask any more questions, and thought to himself, "Mr. Chu is quite pitiful when he has no one to rely on. If they get along well, I will take care of him until his death for the sake of 'half a teacher's kindness' in the future. Anyway, I If you are young and strong, you will not be unable to support an old man."
Thinking about it this way, I was almost moved by myself. It would be unreasonable not to give her a certificate of "Five Outstanding Youth".
"Sir..."
The whole journey was silent, but Shen Tang had mild ADHD.
If you don't move your hands, feet, or mouth, you will be very active inside. When you are idle, you will feel uncomfortable. You have to find topics to talk about.
Chu Yao is different from Qi Shan, who sometimes cares about her, but the former is very considerate and responds immediately.
"What are your orders, Goro?"
"Um..." Shen Tang was stunned for a moment. She actually had nothing to do, but she just couldn't sit still. Chu Yao responded, but she didn't know what to ask. In a flash, she remembered what happened in Yuehua Building, "Mr. Do you know the spirit of words that can spy on people's hearts?"
"I know, why does Wulang suddenly ask this?"
Shen Tang felt aggrieved when she thought of that "Mr. Gu". For a person with strong psychological activity like her, "Mr. Gu" is someone who will always be blacklisted. She said: "I just met a scribe in Yuehua Tower. The ability to read minds is amazing..."
"sharp?"
"You're being read and spied upon just once you meet, and you don't have any privacy at all." Shen Tang asked for advice, "How should I deal with this?"
"The heart is separated from the belly." Chu Yao was calm and calm.
Shen Tang said "Ah" but didn't react for a moment.
"What's the word 'people's hearts are separated from each other'?"
Chu Yao said: "It is a word spirit that resists prying eyes. However, it doesn't mean much whether you learn it or not, and it is generally not used. There are many scribes who practice peeping words and spirits, but only a few can learn it. Every time they use it, they will be right." Wenxin creates a huge burden. If the person being spied on is also a literati and has certain precautions, the price to pay is even greater, and there is a risk of backlash if you are not careful."
He also learned similar voyeurism in private after replacing Wen Xin, and he was still "familiar" with it.
Shen Tang: "I see. No wonder that man has the sick look of a short-lived tuberculosis ghost. It makes people suspect that he will learn to fly a kite to the sky when the wind blows. But the burden of this kind of spiritual spirit is so heavy, is it necessary to abuse it on me? Or is it because of his own longevity? Too long?"
Big burden?
I really can't tell.
Shen Tang felt that that person was quite at ease.
Chu Yao has never seen the scribe mentioned by Shen Tang, so he naturally has no way of judging, but one thing is certain -
"If you are not a kind person, keep a respectful distance from them."
Regardless of whether that scribe is so powerful that he can ignore burdens, or his "way of the scribe" is to peek into the heart, it is not a good thing.
"I understand this, but the tree wants to be quiet but the wind doesn't stop... I just hope that I won't be so unlucky and burn my body with fire."
Some things are beyond her reach.
Based on her relationship with Gong Cheng, the hustler and Mr. Gu won't really trust her, and may even send someone to investigate secretly.
It's easy to dodge an open gun but hard to defend against a hidden arrow.
Thinking of this, Shen Tang shook his head——
She is not the original owner, and has no intention of getting involved in messy things. Gong Cheng will not betray her. After all, the two of them are in a sense a grasshopper on a rope.
She was caught, can Gong Cheng sit back and relax?
As simple, law-abiding ordinary people, instead of worrying about big shots, we should think more about how to make money.
Which food, clothing, housing and transportation are free of charge?
After she crossed the river and demolished the Qishan Bridge, she could only "depend on each other" with Mr. Chu, and the burden of supporting her two children fell on her shoulders. As a strong young man, she could not count on Chu if she could not support her family. Does the old gentleman go out to wash dishes to support them?
