The tall man next to them and He Danggui comforted Meng Xuan considerately at the same time, "It's okay. Just take your time."
Hearing it, He Danggui turned to look at the man up and down. Judging from his appearance, he should be in his forties. He had a chiseled face with fair skin, deep-set eyes, and a Roman nose. When he put on a faint smile, he looked even more beautiful than a lady. There were two eye-catching things about him. First, his bridge of the nose and his chin looked slightly similar to Meng Xuan's, so obviously, they had kinship. No wonder that Meng Xuan called him... Fourth Uncle? Was he the famous elder Meng Xuan had mentioned and had taught him martial arts? What was his name?
Second, she noticed the man's slanted eyes were as deep as a well and showed no vigor or pupil. As a doctor, He Danggui believed he was blind and it was just proved by his not making holes in his mask. For some kung fu masters, it wasn't very importan
Looking up at Meng Xuan, He Danggui asked gently, "Shenshi... Do your ears hurt? Do your eyes hurt?" Seeing him just smiling without answering her, she guessed he couldn't hear her again so she turned to ask Meng Xi, "Sir, what happened to Meng Xuan's eyes? We shouldn't let them be blown by the wind, right? Why don't we cover them with silk, then?"With a smile, Meng Xi blew his jade flute for a while. Hearing the tune, Meng Xuan laughed and said, "Don't worry about me, Xiaoyi. I'm better than I've ever been. Several days later when I can take off the earmuff, I will take you with me wherever I go as kangaroos always carry their babies in the pouches. Then, you can talk to me all the time." While saying this, he picked her up as if he was measuring how big his pouch should be designed."Kangaroo? What is that? A hamster with a pouch?" He Danggui asked while frowning, "Are you going to become a hamster?" She couldn't help imagining a hamster th
He rejected it because he was afraid that you might not recognize him!Hearing this, He Danggui was stunned again and even felt her teeth were sore. She had mixed feelings when she thought Meng Xuan had kept calling her before. She, however, just ignored him and applied flower decorations to her forehead.Looking at Meng Xuan who was wearing the earmuff and still smiling stupidly, she could imagine he waved one of his hands in the air while exploring the way with the oak walker, and his swollen eyelids were blown by the wind. And he kept calling her name... Thinking of it, she blamed herself for knowing the truth too late and wanted to make it up for him. She remembered the dessert he liked the most was...Meng Xuan couldn't hear anything. After He Danggui helped him up, he introduced Meng Xi to her happily, "Xiaoyi, our master is mighty and can be seen as the most powerful man in Wulin in the last hundred years. No one can compet
He Danggui was stunned for a moment. The first thing she thought about wasn't how Meng Xuan and she should distribute the priceless Di Ru or how scared she was after Meng Xi told her "Not long later something wrong will happen to your eyes". Instead, as a smart woman, she guessed her master was suspicious of her love for Meng Xuan and testing her. Why would anything wrong happen to her eyes for no reason? What's more, all ailments or serious diseases meant nothing to her.Back then when she lived in the Luo's Mansion, she got ill frequently. She often caught fevers or had excessive internal heat but she never treated herself because she felt better with a disease to cure when she was upset. It seemed diseases could provide her with another kind of sense of security so that the demon in her heart wouldn't devour herself. Now Zhu Quan could no more bother her and she had already confessed her love for Meng Xuan. She wouldn't let anything happen to herself, o
"Master, please take some tea." He Danggui served tea for Meng Xi.He Danggui found that there was a tea set, tea leaves, and clean water in the room. It indicated someone had lived here for a long time. He Danggui picked up two small pieces of charcoal with a clip and burned them on a stove. She also burned a small piece of incense that had the fragrance of jasmine. It was in harmony with their mood now. Meanwhile, Meng Xi took out a wooden fish and a silver qin and played music with them. Meng Xuan smiled and said, "Uncle, the tea brewed by Xiaoyi is one of Yangzhou's Four Treasures." Obviously, he got the message from Meng Xi's performance.He Danggui boiled water, washed teacups and the teapot, added tea leaves and hot water, washed them, brewed tea, poured it into the teacups, and finally, served it to Meng Xi. She was adept in it as if she was dancing but not brewing tea. She made a pot of jasmine tea elegantly. Then, she gave Meng Xi th
"Meng Xuan? Meng Xuan!" He Danggui called Meng Xuan's name in a low voice and patted his ruddy face, "Meng Xuan, wake up! I have something to ask you!"She called him again and again but Meng Xuan still didn't move. He breathed steadily. Obviously, he was asleep. Because of the medicine, tiredness, and loss of sight as well as hearing, he was sleeping like a baby and smiling.He Danggui sighed and took down the jade pendant with Azure Dragon on his neck. She observed it and was sure it belonged to Zhu Quan. Last time in the Depositary of Buddhist Texts, she noticed Zhu Quan still had some memories of his previous life and she stuffed the jade pendant into his hand. Zhu Quan, however, refused to hold it and it fell between his fingers. Chang Nuo who stood next to him caught it immediately. He Danggui guessed Chang Nuo would give it back to Zhu Quan sooner or later and then, she could distance herself from these utterly.Now, Meng X
After looking at the moon for a long while, He Danggui calmed down slightly. She failed to stay faithful. How could she ask Meng Xuan to do that? His condition was not good now. As soon as she saw him, she felt heartbroken. She couldn't be mad at him at all. He risked his eyesight and hearing and came to the Baisha Mountain Villa to look for her. She was really moved by him. She must've been his favorite even if she wasn't the only one.Thinking about this, she suddenly felt less sad but her chest still seemed to be stuffed with some cotton. Although the villa might be dangerous in darkness, she turned around and walked across the corridor. Standing before the rockery in the atrium, she looked at the messy scene caused by the battle. What kind of life could be thought of as "happy"? How much happiness did she need to fill a man's heart?"Lady."It was already midnight. He Danggui was startled by the sudden voice. It sounded famili
He Danggui thought for a while and nodded with a smile. She said, "So you must've heard a lot. It's hard for you to wait until now. You seem to have a huge grudge against me, Third Childe, so you desperately hope I can be beheaded by this man from Nihon. Why don't you show up later? After this man leaves, you can come out and pick up my head. Then, you can send it to Meng Xuan and let him touch it so that he won't be infatuated with a 'flashy skull' like me anymore."At this time, Xue Xiao and He Danggui were just two steps away from each other while he still held a killing intent and the shiny sword was still in his hand. If he wants to kill her now, she will immediately be beheaded as soon as he lifts the sword. He was just waiting for Meng Ying to show his attitude. Xue Xiao was much injured and couldn't exert Feng Dun well. If Meng Ying was on He Danggui's side, he would have to give up killing He Danggui at this perfect moment. Xue Xiao asked Meng Ying again, "Will
He Danggui felt like she had become a cat whose tail was trodden. She opened her eyes suddenly and glared at Meng Ying while saying coldly, "I don't need you to feel sympathetic toward me! I didn't want to die for anyone. Why would I do that? I just saw the Xiao Huo Bombs hidden in your back but you didn't intend to use them and even wanted to humiliate me with that man from Nihon. Thus, I provoked him and forced you to use the bombs. I don't believe a kind man like you will watch me die like that. Even if you don't care about my life, you will still need to think about Meng Xuan's eyes. I just applied medicine to his eyes and he fell asleep. If he knew I was dead, he would cry at least, and the medicine would be watered away."Hearing her words, Meng Ying tried twice before saying, "Fine. Just calm down. Fourth Uncle found me just now and said he had something to deal with so he couldn't go back to Yangzhou City with us. He asked me to protect Meng Xuan and you and rem
