Chapter 115
: Taixu
With one more Liu Muyan, Ye Wen's walking speed inevitably dropped by several levels. If he was anxious, he could still use his light skills to catch up for a while. If he hadn't returned, it would be fine. With his cultivation level, he could use his light skills to hurry all the way and return to Shushan within a few days.
But now? It’s not impossible to ask Ye Wen to bring someone with him, but the physical condition of Liu Muyan, the scholar, was so bad that Ye Wen was outrageous. Even if Ye Wen lifted him up and walked quickly, it would take two miles to get the student who had just received the student to faint in Ye Wen’s hands, or even vomited a lot.
"Your health is so bad!"
Less than half a day after leaving the county town, Liu Muyan sat on the side of the road, gasping like a pug. Ye Wen wondered if he had made a wrong choice to take the scholar with him.
"Master, student...the students are scholars. They stay at home and study all day long and don't have much strength!" Although Liu Muyan didn't care much about his poor health, Ye Wen is now his teacher. At most, the teacher scolded him to justify him. He would definitely not dare to do so.
When Ye Wen heard him say this, he didn't say anything nonsense. He went straight to pick up Liu Muyan's wrist and used his true energy to investigate.
His true energy transport was unstable, and Liu Muyan felt a warm heat coming from his wrist, and then he finally wandered in the limbs and bones from his wrist to his forearm to his shoulders. The feeling was so uncomfortable, and even some of the diseases he had accumulated over his years of study seemed to have healed in this moment.
But when Ye Wen let go of his hand, the warm current in his body disappeared. He opened his eyes and looked at the master who was younger than him. Liu Muyan was about to ask, but saw that Ye Wen looked very serious and looked at him up and down.
"Master...is the student wrong?"
After Ye Wen saw this, I was afraid that no one would feel comfortable. Liu Muyan could not bear it for a moment and asked in a hurry.
Ye Wen did not hide it, just asked: "Did you stay at home all day and never go out for many years?"
His question was very serious. Even if ordinary people are stupid, they could hear that Ye Wen's questioning was probably not a good thing. However, Liu Muyan seemed to have thought of something proud and replied proudly: "Students can read countless books in a day, but they don't leave the house for a month just study. If they have to go out for the exam, it is okay for students not to leave the room all year round!"
Speaking of this, I shook my head: "There are their own in the book..."
"Okay!" He shouted and stopped Liu Muyan's words. Ye Wen said directly: "It's a blessing that I met me. If you told you to do this again, you will die suddenly within two years!"
"Suddenly die?" After hearing this word suddenly, Liu Muyan was shocked, but then he smiled and said, "Would Master be too careful? Although the student is not feeling bad, he is not seriously injured. Besides, how many people have learned a lot of knowledge? "
Ye Wen sneered a few times: "Whether you believe it or not! I will only tell you one fact! Your qi and blood are not smooth, your meridians are weak, and your inner palace is weak. If you continue, you will die of organ failure within two years!"
Seeing that Ye Wen was terrifying, Liu Muyan hurriedly put away his smile, but he never dared to speak nonsense again and asked, "What should I do? Can I treat it with medicine?"
"Just exercise frequently, and if you continue for a long time, your qi and blood will be strong again, and you will be cured without medicine!"
"exercise?"
After Ye Wen said this, he also said that the newly admitted student would be extremely excited. After all, it can be so simple that he can avoid death. Anyone should be happy. What's more, the exercise that Ye Wen said was not about asking him to do some cool labor, but just going out to do activities every day.
Unexpectedly, even so, Liu Muyan's expression was very ugly, as if he had heard the great bad news.
"Is it okay to take medicine? I know a few pairs of Daguo decoctions. I think this kind of weakness can recover by taking the decoctions!"
Ye Wen was almost angry after hearing this and cursed directly: "You are now weak and unpaid. If you drink that big tonic, you will not only not save you, but will kill you. If you want to die, I will not stop you. Now I will go to the pharmacy to get medicine, and then find a coffin shop to drink it! That way, it will save you back and forth and transport it back and forth. It is very troublesome. Just throw it into the coffin and you can get it into the soil with a lid!"
Only then did Liu Muyan realize that his body had fallen to this level, and he didn't know how to respond at the moment, but just looked at the master who asserted that he was going to die.
"Don't look at me like this, it's awkward!"
When Ye Wen shouted again, Liu Muyan had to sit upright by the side of the road, and at the same time he did not look sideways, but stared at a stone across the road, for fear of annoying Ye Wen again.
Seeing him like this, Ye Wen could only sigh helplessly: "You follow me back to Shushan first, and then slowly adjust your body. As long as you are properly conditioned, your disease will not be difficult to cure! But... it requires you to be more conscious!"
After chatting for a while, Ye Wen finally saw what kind of personality Liu Muyan had. To put it nicely, he was too scholarly, and to put it bluntly, he was a lazy pig with no diligence in all limbs!
Even if ordinary scholars work hard, they will not spend the whole day reading in their room like him. At least they know that they will go out and walk around, and from time to time they will go out with their fellow disciples to enjoy the green, enjoy flowers, and have funerals (Ye Wen is just a random guess. Those who can visit that place are not ordinary poor scholars, but this person should not look like a poor person).
This is a good otaku in the whole world! He is with books all day and night, and never goes out, and it is difficult to even carry things on the road. However, at this time, Ye Wen believed that Liu Muyan was really a person with a wealth of knowledge. He could not do without rich knowledge when studying hard like this.
Thinking of this, Ye Wen suddenly had a flash of inspiration, picked up a wooden stick from the side of the road, and handed it to Liu Muyan: "You can use this to write and show me!"
Liu Muyan looked puzzled, but he still did as he said, and saw the light and floating branches shaking tremblingly in his hands. Liu Muyan only raised them for a moment and his forehead was sweating, and his hands were shaking even more violently. Ye Wen understood after just a look.
When Liu Muyan was writing, Ye Wen didn't care. He just read the words he wrote and finished it. Only then did he realize that the root of the matter was still in Liu Muyan's body.
"This is so great! Even such a light wooden stick can't be held firmly. No wonder the words in one hand are so shocking and inspiring to the world!"
It turns out that Liu Muyan never writes well because he is too weak and has a considerable degree of weakness. For example, if you ask a person who is terminally ill and is about to die to pick up his pen and write, it will be better and you won’t see much.
In addition, Liu Muyan's laziness is also the enemy of writing. This writing requires calmness and writing slowly. Liu Muyan cannot write a few words, so he doesn't want to write anymore. He just wants to complete it earlier. Once the hand moves quickly, his temperament will disappear first. The font is not good and the strength is insufficient. Isn't this casual way to spoil it? Isn't it the same as abstract painting?
"I already know why you can't write well, but you can cure it with your body!"
"Really?" Liu Muyan was overjoyed when he heard this, and the wooden stick in his hand was thrown aside by him.
Ye Wen's eyes narrowed, his expression became solemn, and he grabbed the void in his hand. Before Liu Muyan understood what Ye Wen was doing, he saw a wooden branch suddenly flew past his ear and landed straight into Ye Wen's hand.
This scene made him stunned, his lips trembled twice and finally asked: "Master...Master, is it that you are a god?"
"What a god, just a little trick!" After saying that, he handed the branch back to Liu Muyan's hand and ordered: "From now on, you will take this wooden branch to write. As long as I don't speak, you can't let go, do you understand?"
When Liu Muyan heard that it was a trick, he was no longer surprised and reached out to tuck the wooden branch. Although he wanted to complain, he had already become a teacher, so he naturally had to obey his orders and answered only: "I understand!"
Ye Wen nodded, saw Liu Muyan pretending, and then said, "Stay going!"
"Continue...go?"
"Of course, if we don't leave, how can we go back to Shushan?"
"But this..." Liu Muyan pointed to his right hand that had been posing.
"It's just right hand, you don't walk with your hands!"
After saying that, Ye Wen stopped talking nonsense, just walked straight ahead, and then looked back from time to time to see if the scholar had followed.
In fact, with Ye Wen's foot strength, Liu Muyan could not keep up no matter what. However, Ye Wen would adjust his pace according to Liu Muyan's situation and only move forward at a speed that could make the other party follow.
Of course, even so, if Liu Muyan stopped and refused to leave, he would not be able to follow Ye Wen. But if this is true, Ye Wen would pretend to have confiscated this apprentice. Even if he came to Shushan in the future, he would definitely not admit it.
This was also a test by Ye Wen for Liu Muyan. If he could pass, he would not only teach him calligraphy with all his heart, but also try to cure his hidden illness.
Liu Muyan didn't know what Ye Wen was thinking. He took a few steps at first and had no complaints. After half an hour, he began to ask: "Master, when will you go like this? I'm afraid it's not even the two accommodation places where it's dark!"
Seeing Ye Wen not answering, Liu Muyan continued, "Why don't you rest for a while and wait until the next Cheng County student rents a carriage?"
This time Ye Wen turned around and smiled and said, "If you rent a carriage, you can go by yourself!"
Liu Muyan said at first that Ye Wen had agreed. He was just happy and suddenly realized that Ye Wen could just leave by himself, and it seemed that he could get out by himself!
Thinking of this, he stopped talking about renting a carriage, followed him slowly, but he asked after a while: "Master, do you want to take a rest?"
At this time, he felt that his right hand was no longer his own. He was so sad that he could not help but chop it off. However, Ye Wen didn't say anything, so he could only hold it up, even if he reached out his left hand to help him.
Another hour passed, Liu Muyan had stopped talking, but she was so tired that her whole body was sore and soft, her legs were numb and her feet were sore. Even if she spoke, she felt powerless. She knew that Ye Wen would not stop, so she held back and said nothing, just to save her energy.
Ye Wen looked at the sky, then looked back at Liu Muyan who was still following closely behind him, nodded secretly, and said, "It's getting late. It seems that we can't reach the next Chengxian County. Let's find a place nearby to rest for a night!"
Seeing that Liu Muyan was holding his right arm, Ye Wen then said, "You can put down your right hand!"
As soon as he finished speaking, he heard Liu Muyan breathe a long sigh, and then he fell directly to the roadside as if he had no bones. The wooden branches in his hand were still there, but this was also because his fingers were numb and could not be separated for a while, otherwise he would have thrown this hateful thing away.
Ye Wen smiled and went into the woods to find some wild animals. Unfortunately, it was just next to the official road, and those wild animals were rarely seen. Ye Wen walked around and found nothing, and finally he could only chew the dry food he brought with Liu Muyan.
"Master, do you want some drink?"
While eating, Liu Muyan took out another skin bag from somewhere. When the plug was pulled out, a scent of wine immediately floated out. Although Ye Wen was not good at wine, he was also attracted by the fragrance.
Seeing that Liu Muyan looked up and was about to pour it into his mouth, Ye Wen immediately stopped and said, "You are weak, don't touch this drink in the future. It's not too late to drink it when your body is well conditioned! At least drinking at that time will not take your life!"
The scholar didn't expect that even drinking could kill himself. He was stunned and didn't know what to do. As a result, Ye Wen took the wine bag over and said, "Please put this thing here, so that you won't drink it secretly!" After that, he stuffed the wine bag back and put it aside.
Although he was aroused by greed, he would not steal the things of his disciples and would not let Liu Muyan drink. It was indeed because he was too weak. As for this wine bag? He said that keeping it is to keep it. When he arrived at Shushan, he poured the wine into the jar and sealed it for storage. When Liu Muyan's body recovered, he would return it to him.
When he looked up, Liu Muyan had a little doubt in his expression. Ye Wen was a little angry: "I said I would give you back to you in the future, and I can still covet your drink?"
Liu Muyan shook his head hurriedly: "If the master likes it, the student should give it to you!"
Love! Liu Muyan really thought that Ye Wen was greedy for his fine wine and said that, and he would never see the wine again. But he didn't know that it was because of his words that Ye Wen strengthened his determination to go back and seal the wine.
"I'll tell you to see what it means to do what you say!"
It was a waste of time to get idle, and Ye Wen meditated in the woods all night. At dawn the next day, he woke up Liu Muyan, who was sleeping sweetly, and urged him to continue on the road.
Liu Muyan used to stay at home without farming and consuming all day long, and even when he traveled, he was taking a bus. How could he suffer such a torture? He had already hurt all over his body when he walked all the way yesterday. He slept in the wild for a night, and felt extremely uncomfortable again. But no matter how uncomfortable it was, it was better than continuing to walk. When Ye Wen called him, he felt depressed immediately.
"Oh! I originally wanted to find a gentleman who taught me to write, but I didn't expect to find a walker!" He could only think about this in his heart, saying that he didn't dare to say it.
Since he had become a teacher, no matter how strange the master had, he could only bear it. In this way, Liu Muyan followed Ye Wen to Shushan County day by day, and didn't know how many days he had walked. He felt that he had walked less than the other day, but Liu Muyan's body gradually couldn't hold on.
But in the next few days, Liu Muyan was surprised to find that walking like torture was no longer so difficult for the days before. He just felt a little tired and had already walked to Linshan County. Not only did he enter the county before dusk, but he was no longer as painful as the previous few days. Only then did he realize that Ye Wen forced him to walk to exercise his body.
"Master, the student has felt that he has improved a lot in the past few days!"
Ye Wen glanced at him without curiosity: "You are quite good at this? It's still far from it!"
He originally wanted to pour some cold water on Liu Muyan, but he didn't expect that this would attract the attention of an old man next to him. The old man was dressed in coarse cloth clothes and a medicine box at his feet. There was only a bowl of vegetarian noodles in front of him, but he ate with relish, as if he hadn't eaten for a few days.
Just as he wiped his mouth with the numbness he took out from somewhere, he unconsciously looked here when he heard Ye Wen speak. With this glance, he let out a light slight: "Huh?"
Then, without waiting for Ye Wen and Liu Muyan to ask, the old man sat directly at their table, then stretched out his thin hand to grab Liu Muyan's wrist, and after a moment, he suddenly said: "It's true!"
Then he touched his beard and looked at Liu Muyan with a master look, "Young master, do you know that your life is not long?"
"Um?"
Ye Wen and Liu Muyan were surprised why the old man suddenly ran over. Hearing him, he was surprised. Ye Wen looked closely and found that the old man was a traveling doctor. No wonder he ran over. I thought it was because he saw that Liu Muyan was weak and he did this.
"I already know it!"
This time the old man was a little surprised, and said softly, "Oh" and clasped his fists and said, "It seems that the little old man is meddling in other people's business!" After saying that, he returned to his table with a look of regret, and then drank the remaining soup of the bowl of plain noodles.
The waiter wanted to clean up the bowl, but he didn't expect the old man to turn it back and snatch the bowl from him. He couldn't help but feel contempt and said a little unpleasant: "Have you finished eating, old man? After eating, hurry up and let your seat!"
The old man was drinking happily, but he didn't expect to attract bad words from the waiter. But he saw too much of these things and laughed twice: "Okay, okay! That's it!"
Then he handed the bowl to the waiter, then carried the medicine box and was about to leave.
Looking at the old man, Ye Wen lowered his head and thought for a while, and finally suddenly said, "I wonder if this old man can say a few words to you?"
The old man was about to leave, but when he heard Ye Wen call him, he turned around and smiled, "What do you want to say to the old man?" As he said that, he did not avoid it and sat down next to Ye Wen.
