Chapter 383 Peach blossoms bloom, like an old friend coming
Young Master Chu?
When and where did you hear it?
Chu Liang covered his forehead, unable to recall the memory of this title, but it felt inexplicably familiar.
"Mr. Chu, what's wrong with you?" Su Qingyu asked.
"It's nothing, it's just... I seem to have forgotten something."
"Master Chu doesn't seem to be a forgetful person."
"yes."
Chu Liang was also surprised. What did he forget?
His life was only a little over ten years, not even twenty years, and there was nothing to forget.
Whenever he thought of the title "Young Master Chu", he would be inexplicably touched in his heart, but once he wanted to delve deeper, the strange feeling disappeared again, as if he could never see the truth through a layer of hazy mist. .
"That's all, don't think about this."
Chu Liang shook his head and focused on the matter at hand.
He took out a bowl of soup and blew it carefully. After the heat dissipated, he used a wooden spoon to bring the soup to Su Qingyu's mouth and said, "Miss Su, try this soup. If it's still hot, I'll try it again." Leave it for a while.”
"Okay, let me try..."
Su Qingyu tasted it, then smiled brightly and said, "That's all. Thank you, Mr. Chu."
"It's nothing, it's easy."
Chu Liang responded with a smile, feeding the soup one spoonful after another.
After a few days, Su Qingyu was finally able to get off the ground, and her complexion was much better than the first two days.
She came to the yard, squinted her eyes slightly, felt the long-lost sunshine, and slightly raised the corners of her mouth, which seemed to be particularly comfortable.
Chu Liang was also in the yard, performing a set of messy sword skills.
"Swipe, swipe, swipe..."
The long sword was dangling here and there, looking disorganized.
Su Qingyu had a smile on her lips and beautiful eyes like water, watching silently without interrupting him.
"Miss Su, how is my swordsmanship?" Chu Liang put away his sword, turned to look at her, and asked seriously.
"You don't stick to fixed formulas. Every formula is unexpected and beyond the scope of beginners. Mr. Chu already has the demeanor of a master." Su Qingyu responded with a smile.
Chu Liang was quite embarrassed and heard the hidden meaning behind his words.
He asked: "Miss Su, after you recover, can you teach me swordsmanship?"
Su Qingyu nodded lightly: "Of course, Mr. Chu is kind to me, this is what I should do."
She recovered faster than Chu Liang imagined.
Three days later, she could basically move normally, and the scabs from the wounds all over her body began to fall off.
From this day on, Chu Liang began to learn swordsmanship under her guidance.
In this life, his martial arts talent was mediocre and he was slow to learn.
"brush!"
In the yard, Chu Liang held a wooden sword and raised it.
He turned around and asked: "Miss Su, is this sword right?"
Su Qingyu shook her head slightly and said: "Mr. Chu, the angle of this challenge is wrong, and your posture is also wrong. Don't just use your arms to exert force, you need to combine the strength of your waist and legs."
After saying that, she stepped forward, gently held Chu Liang's sword-holding hand, corrected his movements, and then used a little force to lead Chu Liang to pick out a sword with her own strength.
A brush sound.
The wooden sword turned into a phantom and flashed past Chu Liang's eyes in an instant, several times faster than his sword.
Chu Liang was surprised that there was such a big difference between the same sword.
"Mr. Chu, try again."
Su Qingyu's voice was soft, she let go of his hand and took two steps back.
Chu Liang nodded, and based on the feeling just now, he picked out a sword again. This time it was obviously much better than before, but it was still not up to standard.
Su Qingyu was very patient and stepped forward again, teaching him step by step so that he could continue to understand.
"Mr. Chu, there is no need to explode with all your strength. The withdrawal of force is as important as the release of force. Look at my sword..."
After several days of this, Chu Liang finally learned the seven sword moves and learned 20% of the most basic chapters.
Although it is still not very standard, but I can play it in a decent way, and I have a real sense of chivalry, and I can at least bluff people who don't understand.
Su Qingyu's body has almost recovered, and even the scars on her body have faded.
Early that morning, she asked to go out for a walk.
Chu Liang took her over the mountains to the nearest town. He first went to the theater to watch a play, and then went to a restaurant. While drinking, he listened to the story of the knights and knights narrated by the scholar.
"Miss Su, what do you think of these stories?" Chu Liang was a little curious and wanted to hear the views of this real heroine.
"It's acceptable, a little exaggerated." Su Qingyu commented softly, "It's just a drink, so the story seems bland."
"Miss Su, this is the best wine in the restaurant."
Chu Liang was surprised. He was usually reluctant to buy such a good product.
Su Qingyu chuckled: "Mr. Chu, these drinks can only be considered inferior. When I go back, I will make some jars of real wine for you."
"Miss Su actually knows how to make wine?"
"Understand a little bit."
After returning, Su Qingyu went to the peach forest in Houshan to pick some peach blossoms.
The wine she wants to brew is called Peach Blossom Niang. It is a sweet and mellow fine wine.
"Peach blossom stuffing?"
Chu Liang was startled again and was stunned for a long time.
He seemed to have heard this name somewhere before.
"strangeness……"
Chu Liang rubbed his eyebrows, as if something was about to emerge from the depths of his memory, but it was still hazy and unclear.
Why do you feel this way?
He couldn't understand.
After a while, the wine was brewed.
Su Qingyu had also completely recovered. She packed her things and said goodbye to Chu Liang.
"Mr. Chu, it's best to seal these wines for a year, and then open them when the peach blossoms bloom next year. They will be the sweetest then." Su Qingyu introduced seriously.
"When the peach blossoms bloom..."
Chu Liang suddenly became dazed for a moment, and a vague figure suddenly appeared in his mind.
It seemed to be a woman who made him feel very familiar, but he couldn't remember where he had seen her.
He silently looked at the jars of peach wine in front of him, and it took him a long time to come back to his senses and ask: "Miss Su, are you leaving?"
Su Qingyu nodded, holding the sword and said: "There are still a few enemies, wait for me to kill them, and then come back to reunite with Master Chu."
"Miss Su, do those enemies have a big grudge against you?"
"No grudge."
Su Qingyu replied: "But they have done many evil things and have suffered many bad consequences. I can't let them do evil."
Chu Liang asked again: "How strong are they?"
"As strong as me."
"Isn't this trip very dangerous?"
Chu Liang was worried and said: "Miss Su, you are very talented, why don't you practice for a few more years?"
Su Qingyu shook her head gently: "I don't have much time left, not a few years."
"Why is that?"
Chu Liang was surprised, she was so young, how could she not have much time left?
Only after asking this question did he know...
It turned out that when Su Qingyu was still in her mother's womb, her mother was plotted against by the enemy, causing her to be born weak.
Later, she was diagnosed with a terminal illness by the doctor and would not live beyond the age of 20.
That terminal illness, called "leaf blight", is incurable. Once you get it, your organs will gradually wither like leaves, and eventually die of exhaustion.
What's more terrifying is that the person suffering from the disease will clearly feel the exhaustion of their organs bit by bit, and live in pain and suffering every day.
"Mr. Chu, I'm nineteen this year."
"Ms. Su, you..."
Chu Liang opened his mouth and looked at Su Qingyu's calm face. He felt reluctant and had a different emotion in his heart. He didn't know what to say.
Su Qingyu chuckled: "Everyone has to die. Whether it's a long or short life, it's a life. Just don't leave any regrets."
Chu Liang sighed: "Ms. Su is free and easy, I am not as good as her."
"Let's go, Mr. Chu, take care!"
Su Qingyu turned around, holding a sword and left, and her figure gradually disappeared in the peach forest.
Chu Liang stared at the direction she left, standing for a long time, and the vague figure in his mind suddenly became clearer.
The figure was somewhat similar to Su Qingyu, but he still couldn't remember who it was.
The grass and trees withered and flourished, and time passed.
Su Qingyu never came back, and his life and death became a mystery.
Unknowingly, a year passed, and the peach blossoms in the peach forest bloomed again.
"Huh..."
The mountain breeze blew, and the peach blossoms all over the mountain were flying.
On this day, Chu Liang picked herbs as usual.
When passing by the peach forest, his steps suddenly stagnated, his eyes changed, and he looked at a peach tree.
A girl in green was standing under the peach tree, holding a long sword, smiling, and her beautiful eyes were gentle. I don’t know how long she has been waiting, and there are a few peach blossoms on her hair.
"Mr. Chu, how are you?" Su Qingyu smiled.
"Miss Su!"
Chu Liang immediately quickened his pace, hurried over, and said, "I thought you were in trouble, but I didn’t expect to see you again."
After a year, neither of them has changed much.
Now they meet again, everything in the past is vivid, as if it was yesterday.
Chu Liang was happy, but also worried.
Su Qingyu was terminally ill and had not much time left, but she did not mention it actively. She always had a smile on her face, as if the pain and suffering of organ failure did not exist.
For a period of time afterwards, Chu Liang sometimes learned swordsmanship under Su Qingyu's guidance, and sometimes listened to her stories and anecdotes about the rivers and lakes.
Life returned to the past, and it seemed that it would never change.
Until this day.
Su Qingyu suddenly said: "Mr. Chu, are those jars of peach wine still there?"
Chu Liang nodded: "Yes."
"The peach blossoms are in full bloom, how about we go to the peach forest to drink?"
"Okay."
Chu Liang felt heavy in his heart and took those jars of peach wine.
In the back mountain, the fragrance of flowers was overflowing, peach blossoms were blooming, countless petals were dancing in the wind, and the ground was also covered with a layer.
The two sat on the ground and opened the seal on the wine jar, and the sweet aroma of wine immediately came out.
They drank and talked, and chatted for a long time in the sky full of peach blossoms.
Time passed, and gradually came to the evening.
Su Qingyu glanced at the crimson sunset in the distance, put down the wine jar in her hand, and chuckled: "Mr. Chu, my time is up. The doctor's diagnosis back then was correct. I really won't live past the age of 20."
"Miss Su, you..."
"No need to be sad, it's just a farewell."
Su Qingyu's voice was soft, and her breath of life gradually weakened. She slowly leaned back and leaned against a peach tree.
Her life was short, but she didn't care.
As she once said, it would be good if there were no regrets.
"Mr. Chu, there will be separation when there is a reunion. Maybe you and I will meet again in the next life." She slowly closed her eyes, and after saying this, her breath of life completely disappeared.
The evening breeze blew countless petals and slowly buried her body.
"Next life?"
Chu Liang suddenly trembled.
In his mind, the figure that had always been blurred finally became clear at this moment.
That was also a woman, an old friend. Before she died, she told Chu Liang that if he thought of her when the peach blossoms bloomed next year, he should place a pot of peach blossom wine in front of her grave.
At this moment, Chu Liang remembered.
Not only did I think of her, but I also thought of everything.
"I am Chu Liang. I am fighting with the Great Dream God. The life after life I have experienced is just an illusion caused by the law of reincarnation..."
He slowly closed his eyes, and a mysterious and mysterious aura escaped from his body.
I don't know how long it took, but when he opened his eyes, the peach blossoms around him dispersed, and the entire world in this world also disappeared.
He has woken up.
There is no next life.
