……
Not long after, the Xia Kingdom and the Yuling Kingdom went to war.
The patrolling musketeers were no longer seen at the steam station. The huge world tree was cut down by angry soldiers and civilians because it was a product of the Yuling Kingdom, and its huge trunk was burned by the divine fire.
As the governor of Xia State, Mo Ting naturally shoulders the responsibility of fighting against Yuling State. This place is the border between the two countries, and Xia State, as an invader, needs a vanguard force to conduct espionage.
He promised Susu that he would not harm the civilians of Yuling Kingdom and would not kill innocent people indiscriminately.
That day, Mo Ting did not return.
Su Su had no choice but to share the prepared food with the orphans in the orphanage in the town.
The war had nothing to do with these poor children, but Su Su did not expect that some of the older children in the orphanage were already hostile to her, and the guard at the orphanage even touched her.
Enduring the humiliation and pain from the beating, she fled back home.
At midnight the next day, Mo Ting returned.
His body was covered in blood and a huge sword mark pierced through his chest. His breathing was disordered and even his soul was extremely weak. The moment he saw Su Su, Mo Ting finally fell into her arms with a sense of relief.
Not knowing what to do, Su Su frantically tried to heal Mo Ting's wounds, but the sword mark and the damage to his soul left her helpless.
Just when Su Su was getting anxious and at a loss, Mo Ting, who was lying on the bed, suddenly stood up and threw her to the ground. Looking up blankly, Su Su was met with a pair of beast-like vertical pupils.
Blood filled Mo Ting's eyes. She instinctively wanted to escape, but was slapped down. Finally, Mo Ting's sharp teeth pierced into her neck.
The Hungarian royal family is a vampire clan. When their soul is hurt, their blood will become ferocious and suck blood.
『'Blank』!69,89;2!5"85'0 Su Su didn't know any of this. She could only feel that as her blood and essence were absorbed by Mo Ting, the scars on his body were healing rapidly. Finally, she stopped struggling, and endured the pain and the empty blood and essence in her body to nourish Mo Ting to complete the healing process. Finally, she dragged her body back to her room and fell into a deep sleep.
Nothing happened that night. When the sun rose the next day, Mo Ting had already left and rushed to the front line again.
Later, Mo Ting came back injured more and more often, but he would be mostly recovered by the next morning every time. When he asked Su Su in confusion, he replied that she saved him with the secret medical skills passed down from her ancestors.
Mo Ting did not suspect anything.
……
In the sixth year, the war between Yuling State and Xia State ended. Mo Ting was appointed as the chief minister of Hou State as one of the meritorious officials. However, to the shock of the court and the people of Xia State, Mo Ting refused the appointment and returned home.
On the day of his return, Mo Ting took off his armor, and Su Su saw scars all over his body.
She subconsciously looked at Mo Ting's eyes. Fortunately, he was not as crazy as usual. Thinking of this, Su Su breathed a sigh of relief. She was really afraid of Mo Ting's ferociousness that would turn him into a beast.
"What's wrong? Are you heartbroken? Do you want to use your secret technique to heal me again?" Mo Ting looked at Su Su with interest and joked.
"You lie down, I'll go and boil some medicine." Su Su did not give a direct answer, but suddenly thought of something and walked out of the bedroom quickly.
Mo Ting was totally confused and had to lie down quietly.
Su Su ran to the kitchen, where there were several medicine pots, which were usually where she cooked medicine for Mo Ting.
She lifted her skirt and knelt beside the medicine pot. Then she reached above her head with her left hand. A white light flashed, and a beautiful white flower appeared in Susu's hand.
This is the fairy pear flower. She remembered her father saying that this flower has the aura of saints. It can heal hidden injuries and replenish the inner spirit if it enters the bones. Mo Ting's soul still looks extremely weak, and this is exactly what he needs at the moment.
The medicine pot was boiling, and soon Su Su came to Mo Ting's bed carrying a bowl of medicine with a strong medicinal aroma.
"Herbs, take your medicine." Su Su called softly.
Herb is what Su Su has been calling Mo Ting for the past six years. Mo Ting was reluctant to reveal his name at first, but after they got to know each other, Su Su saw that he liked herbs, so she called him that. Over time, he called her Su Su and she called him Herb. Neither of them knew each other's name.
"Feed me." Mo Ting looked at Su Su and said with a smile.
Su Su blinked her big eyes, sat next to Mo Ting and fed Mo Ting the medicine one by one with a small spoon.
"Huh... I feel like my soul is repairing itself... Could this medicine... be a heavenly-grade elixir?" Mo Ting was a little confused.
"This is a magical flower from my hometown, it has very good medicinal effects." Su Su added, and Mo Ting didn't hesitate to hear it. He took the bowl and drank it in big gulps.
"Great! Not only has the soul been repaired, it's also becoming stronger..." Mo Ting's eyes lit up and he quickly sat up and began to refine the medicinal power.
An hour later, Mo Ting opened his eyes again and slowly exhaled a breath of foul air.
"Huh?" When Mo Ting came back to his senses, he found that Su Su was still sitting there in a daze.
They just talked about their hometown. Could it be that this little girl is homesick? Mo Ting thought to himself and tried to change the subject.
"Su Su, do you know what my biggest dream in this life is?" Mo Ting thought for a while and suddenly said with a smile.
"Ah?" Sure enough, the thoughtful Su Su was attracted all of a sudden.
"You know, I love flowers, but I have traveled to more than twenty empires and across countless stars in the past ten years, and the flower I want to see the most is...
The national flower of Yuling Country is the fairy pear blossom. "
“???!” Su Su was confused.
Looking at Su Su's expression, Mo Ting thought she was shocked by his thoughts. After all, the fairy pear tree became extinct three million years ago.
I heard that the Corona Royal Family has preserved the last fairy pear tree in the Holy Spirit Xiayu Empire's palace. I wonder if I can ask for one... As Mo Ting spoke, he fell into deep thought and remembered his own marriage.
"..." At this moment, Su Su looked at Mo Ting who was lost in thought as if he was expecting to see the fairy pear blossom, and couldn't help but open her mouth.
She looked at the medicine bowl that Mo Ting was still holding in his hand, and the corners of her mouth twitched slightly.
Why didn't you tell me earlier? If I had known this would happen, I would have left half of the flowers for you.
I wonder how the herb would feel if it knew that what it had just drunk was the divine flower it longed for the most...
She couldn't help but touch her fox ears. If she had known earlier, she would have brought a few more...
"Oh, I really want to see what that flower looks like." Mo Ting said as he smacked his lips. Speaking of which, the medicine tasted pretty good.
When Su Su looked at Mo Ting's perverted look, she suddenly had an idea.
"If I find the fairy pear flower for you, can you...can you...let me be your servant for life?" Su Su asked, blinking her big eyes.
This seems to be the lifelong wish of Herbal Medicine. Alas, I can get a few fairy pear flowers from my father. So if I bring fairy pear flowers to Herbal Medicine, can I make some requests? Humph!
Anyway, she felt very comfortable with Herb. Even as a servant, she felt sweet in her heart. It would be great if she could stay with him for the rest of her life!
And Mo Ting, looking at Su Su's serious expression at this moment, suddenly fell silent.
My heart suddenly ached.
He reached out and touched the girl's fox ears, which made Su Su's face turn red, but she understood. Even though the herb didn't answer her question, she already understood.
Su Su, who lowered her head, did not see the deep pain in Mo Ting's eyes, and Mo Ting did not see the sadness in the girl's eyes who lowered her head.
.........
Mo Ting originally thought that the end of his relationship with Su Su would not come so soon.
The girl was not there that day. She ran out without saying goodbye, as if she had something urgent to do.
He also felt something and looked towards the horizon.
A black dot came from far away, slowly enlarged, and finally turned into a pitch-black void battleship.
That day, the Hungarian deacon came and brought two pieces of news.
First, the old emperor Mo Jun is approaching the end of his life, and Mo Ting, as the eldest prince, needs to return to the country immediately to be appointed as the crown prince in case of any accidents.
Second, the Holy Spirit Xiayu Empire's Crown Royal Family is urging him to get married. He needs to attend an engagement ceremony in a month to exchange the Blood Stone with Princess Su Luo and make a no-regrets engagement.
This is the ultimatum. In three days, the imperial fleet will come here to take him back home.
After nineteen years away, it’s time to go back.
After the messenger left, Mo Ting sat alone for a long time holding a piece of embroidery that Su Su had made for him.
Susu also did not come back all night.
The next day, Su Su came back. Mo Ting only noticed that her face was a little pale and her eyes were slightly red, as if she had just cried.
"Ah, why are the herbs sitting in the yard... You haven't had breakfast yet, I'll make it right away..." Su Su was shocked when she saw Mo Ting, and after thinking for a moment, she went straight to the kitchen.
"Su Su." Mo Ting moved his lips and finally called Su Su.
"you……"
"Herb...you...what's wrong with you? Why are you looking at me like that?" Su Su spoke before Mo Ting. The girl couldn't hide her thoughts and she obviously looked guilty and scared at the moment.
"Today, someone from my family came." Mo Ting looked at Su Su and said silently.
The girl's body trembled.
"A marriage arrangement at home is imminent, and I have to go back." Mo Ting's heart ached with every word he said, but he... had to say it.
With only three days left, he could no longer hide the truth from her.
"Go back... go back... go... will you come back?" The girl asked in a low voice with her head down.
"will not."
"Then...then Susu wants to stay here alone?" Susu looked up and asked confusedly.
"It's time for you to go back. It's been six years." Mo Ting clenched the embroidery in his hand.
"I……"
"We are all running away, aren't we? But running away won't solve the problem." Mo Ting clearly remembered the gunshot wound on Su Su's body when he first met her.
"..."
"........."
“Herbs…”
"Herb, you are getting married. Is your fiancée pretty?" Su Su suddenly looked up, tilted her head and asked with a smile.
In fact, her father also sent someone to find her today. It was a royal marriage, and she only had fifteen days to deal with the aftermath.
"..." Mo Ting looked at Su Su, and for some reason his heart ached again.
"Well... well, does our bet still count? I'll bring you fairy pear flowers, and you..."
"I don't ask to be your servant for life, but can I be your bridesmaid?" Su Su suddenly said.
"Susu..."
"Herb, if you still consider me a friend, please give me this chance... Okay... Okay..." Su Su suddenly cried. She just wanted to see the person who could bring happiness to Herbal Medicine in the future...
Tears dripped onto the hem of Mo Ting's clothes.
"Su Su..." Mo Ting looked at Su Su and started crying while smiling. The pain in his heart became even worse.
"Don't cry..."
"Herbs, you must remember to take the medicine every day. Even if you go home, you must continue to take the medicine until your injury is healed. Got it?"
"And, and...you like the food Susu cooks the most. That's what you said!" Susu said with a smile, tears sliding down her cheeks.
"Actually... Susu's cooking is not much different from her personality. The reason why the food is delicious is because Susu's family has a secret sauce passed down from their ancestors. Whenever I add this sauce to the food, I can taste the flavor of Susu!"
"I made a lot of those sauces and put them all in the cellar of the herbalist's house." Su Su said, taking out a bunch of keys and handing them to Mo Ting with trembling hands.
"The cellar...and the key to the house are all here." Su Su's body trembled more and more.
"Finally... Can Susu make one more request... Can Susu stay one more night?" Susu suddenly looked up and said in an almost pleading tone.
"...Susu..."
"May I?"
"can."
The girl looked at the man in front of her and suddenly smiled.
Tears turn into laughter.
“Herbs are the best.”
……
Mo Ting could not remember how he spent that day. He went to bed like a zombie. When he woke up the next day, he found that the girl was gone.
On the table was a table full of fresh food that had already cooled down a little.
A medicine bag and the hairpin he once gave to Su Su, everything she could keep was placed next to the dining table.
Sitting down, picking up the chopsticks, Mo Ting took a trembling bite of the food.
It seems like something is missing.
Mo Ting didn't believe it and ate the whole bowl of rice, but the feeling didn't change.
