Su Xuan felt a little uncomfortable hearing this title. Judging from the childish behavior of the other party, he shouldn't be much older than himself. It was really outrageous that he called him a boy.
"My name is not boy, my name is Su Xuan!"
"Su Xuan...ok, I remember it." Mo Youzhu reiterated his name again as if he was afraid that Su Xuan didn't remember his name.
"My name is Mo Youzhu, not Hey! Also, your noodles are delicious!"
"Thank you for the compliment!" At this time, Su Xuan didn't want to know about the body-building pill. Instead, he asked: "Mo Youzhu, how young are you this year? You don't look very young, why do you still call me kid?"
"I don't know how old I am, but I have been practicing martial arts since I was young. I have seen it snow ten times."
"It snowed ten times..." Su Xuan pointed his finger in his mind, but he didn't know when the other party became sensible. But it snowed ten times, and he should be around eighteen years old. Listening to the conversation, it sounded like he had never been in love. School.
"Have you read the book?"
"Reading?" Mo Youzhu raised his head, took out a tattered and curled book from his arms, and handed it to Su Xuan.
"Is this it?"
Su Xuan could barely read the words "Quick Knife" on the cover clearly, but when he flipped through it, he found some pictures with very few words, and they were the simplest ones. Based on basic trust, Su Xuan He simply flipped through a few pages and handed it back.
"Forget it...let it go."
It's hard for Su Xuan to say that Mo Youzhu is an uneducated lunatic, but judging from these actions and behaviors, Mo Youzhu has really been mixed up in the world since he was a child, and he has developed this kind of behavior. At least he feels inappropriate in the palace. habit.
"This is the only book I've ever read. It's because of this book that I developed this swordsmanship."
Mo Youzhu held his head with both hands. Su Xuan looked at the candlelight and suddenly found that this woman was not too tall. She was not as tall as her shoulders. Su Xuan felt an inexplicable feeling of pity.
"Wait!" Su Xuan suddenly thought of something.
"What did you just say? You just used this book "Quick Knife" to practice this sword technique?"
Mo Youzhu nodded, not feeling the shock in Su Xuan's tone at all, and he casually handed over his only book, which could be regarded as a "secret book" on the technique, and Su Xuan again I took it, this time not just pretending to look at it to save my face, but carefully looking at the pictures and the pitifully few words on each one.
Su Xuan put all his efforts into understanding and reading every page. It was not that he wanted to steal his master, but that Su Xuan wanted to see that this comic book, which could even be regarded as a children's book, could actually cultivate such a warrior. , Mo Youzhu is not considered a first-grade martial artist, but a second-grade martial artist is more than enough.
After reading it, Su Xuan didn't believe in evil, so he read it again. Mo Youzhu was watching the sky in a daze, not wary of Su Xuan. After this short time together, Mo Youzhu's simple heart faced Su Xuan. Xuan still developed trust.
"This..." Su Xuan scratched his head and couldn't think of anything. He used a silver needle to dredge Nangong's blood. He was almost beaten to death by the crazy Nangong. Moreover, Nangong had also damaged the foundation of his body. In the end, it turned out to be... He was defeated by a man who became a monk halfway and learned kung fu from a comic book.
But Su Xuan had to face up to Mo Youzhu's talent. Just by relying on a copy of "Quick Knife", he could reach such a level of martial arts. If Mo Youzhu was given certain resources and a training environment, she didn't know how high his attainments could be. .
Su Xuan's uneasy mood was quietly suppressed. After closing the children's book, Su Xuan asked again: "Mo Youzhu, by the way, how did you deal with those officials who were still unconscious in Weiyang Palace?" Do you have to take action? They have no power to fight back!"
"Actually, it was also my first time to kill someone. I was a little nervous at first, but later I found out that it was just a matter of picking up and dropping the knife."
Mo Youzhu's tone was in an understatement, as if he was telling about the trivial matter of trampling an ant to death on the roadside. Su Xuan sounded very strange. It was hard to imagine that from a woman who behaved so childishly and simply, and had no ill intentions towards others, How could she say such easy words? Her contempt for life seemed to be inherent in Mo Youzhu's genes.
"Actually, there is another reason!"
"you say!"
Su Xuan would like to hear it.
"These people are all on the list. It's the employer's order. I'm just following the order! Besides, the people on the list are all corrupt officials! I don't know how many people these officials have tortured in the local area and how many people have been displaced because of them. , Selling sons and daughters, just for a bite of food!"
In this world, Su Xuan has no experience of practicing medicine barefoot, and naturally he has never seen the suffering in the world. In his previous life, he was also a descendant of a family of traditional Chinese medicine. He had indeed seen many patients with miserable life experiences, but to truly understand it deeply, Su Xuan asked himself No, now he actually felt guilty about not eating minced meat.
"For such corrupt officials to die like this is simply the greatest tolerance for them."
Su Xuan took a deep breath and made a decision in his heart.
Mo Youzhu was still muttering to himself about his personal experiences and some of the things he had spent in these years. Su Xuan sat next to him and listened without saying a word, but his hands under the wooden table were fixed. Hold tight.
I don’t know how long it took, but the sky turned white. The watchman was beating gongs and drums outside. Inside the Imperial Medical Office, the wooden table in Su Xuan’s room was still covered with bowls and chopsticks. Su Xuan sat upright, Mo. Youzhu was lying on the side, already asleep, and his body would twitch from time to time.
Su Xuan shook Mo Youzhu's shoulders.
"Wake up and go to bed."
But Mo Youzhu opened Su Xuan's arm and pursed his lips, showing no sign of waking up.
"Looks like you're too tired."
Su Xuan looked at the high bun and the scars on the exposed skin, on his forehead and neck. Su Xuan didn't know what kind of story was behind these scars, but every time it must be at a critical moment of life and death, Su Xuan Xuan smiled lightly, and Mo Youzhu's black veil was gently blown by the wind. Su Xuan stretched out his hand to pull it away, but saw a thin snake-like scar revealing a short tail.
Su Xuan's hand stopped in the air, and he finally understood why she always hung the veil on her face and was unwilling to take it off even when eating.
"Well, although men and women are said to be inseparable, now that I, Su Xuan, regard you and Mo Youzhu as my brother, I no longer have such worries."
