Nativity

In a turbulent era, it is natural that wars are raging and killings continue, and Kyoto is not immune.

Fortunately, Sima Ao escaped to the mountains with his students before the fall of the capital.

Sima Ao took the students into the city to find the surviving relatives.

Mixed with the dazzling afterglow of the sun, there was a shocking crimson, and the icy air was also filled with a bloody smell that made people vomit.

The students looked at the bones all over the place, and couldn't believe that the once prosperous city of Kyoto was destroyed by the war, leaving only ruins.

father!
mother!
where are you?still alive?
The students cried out for their loved ones in grief.

uncle!

Damn!

where are you?
Sima Lian cried out in grief, fearing that it might be missed, he rummaged through all the dead bodies.

"Jiang Bin, Jingjing are you?"

Sima Ao saw two similar corpses from a distance, and ran staggeringly.

There is no description of the corpse, and there is still a chance of being alive.

Seeing that the face of the corpse was not Jiang Bin and Jingjing, Sima Ao breathed a sigh of relief.

When Sima Ao luckily couldn't find the corpses of Jiang Bin and Jingjing, he heard his daughter not far away crying heart-piercingly!

woohoo...

uncle!

Damn!

The bodies of Jiang Bin and Jingjing were found among the corpses.

Sima Lian not only found his uncle and godmother in the pile of corpses, but also found a guqin.

Based on the damage of the guqin and Jiang Bin's posture holding Jingjing, everyone concluded that there must have been a serious stampede.

...............

The army attacked the city and announced that it would massacre the city.The people in the city were like frightened birds, trying to flee in panic.

So did Jiang Bin and Jingjing, these fugitives.

Because too many people gathered at the gate of the city, a stampede was caused.

During the stampede, Jiang Bin threw away the guqin and used his body to protect Jingjing.

Even though Jingjing was protected by Jiang Bin's body, she still couldn't escape from this difficulty.

In the end, Jiang Bin, Jingjing and even more civilians died not under the sword of the enemy, but under the stampede of panic.

When he saw the corpses of Jiang Bin and Jingjing, Sima Ao's eyes darkened, he was overwhelmed with grief, and passed out.

.......................................

Jingjing passed away, and Dongfang Yuer, who was possessed by Jingjing, had to show up.

As soon as Dongfang Yuer appeared, Tianting quickly captured the location of Dongfang Yuer.

Looking at Sima Ao's weather-beaten face, Dongfang Yu'er wanted to go up to comfort her, but thought that her time was numbered, so she stopped in her tracks!

"It's been 20 years, Yu'er Siming Xingjun, you've finally shown yourself!" said the two heavenly generals.

"Yeah, I've been hiding for 20 years!" Dongfang Yu'er looked up at the sky with emotion while speaking.

"Come back with us!" The two heavenly generals said again.

"Okay! Please let me say goodbye to Pian Da Tunnel."

Maybe the beloved is still living in this land; or maybe Dongfang Yuer loves this land deeply; knowing that she is about to leave, she begs the two gods reluctantly to allow her to be separated from the earth.

The two generals looked at each other and agreed to Dongfang Yu'er's request.

Dongfang Yu'er looked at the land affectionately, bent down, picked up a handful of sand, and slowly walked to the river, without saying a word, she sprinkled the sand into the river.

Perhaps it is Dongfang Yuer, the way to say goodbye to the earth.

The billowing river waves slapped the shore forcefully, perhaps this was the earth's response and Dongfang Yu'er's way of saying goodbye.

Dongfang Yu'er said goodbye to the earth, kept her promise, and followed the two heavenly generals back to the heavenly court.

....................................

Sima Lian, Houwa and all the juniors brought the corpses of Jiang Bin and Jingjing back to the academy.

Although Jiang Bin and Jingjing did not get together during their lifetime, Kexin did.

After Sima Ao brought the corpses of Jiang Bin and Jingjing back to the academy, he buried them together.

Back then, he knew that his husband had this woman in his heart, but he didn't feel any hatred in his heart; now that this woman has passed away, he didn't feel any pleasure in his heart; on the contrary, he felt a little bit of frustration in his heart.

Jiang Min also didn't know that he would have such an unbelievable emotion for Jingjing.

...............................

Half a year later, before Sima Ao got over the grief of Jiang Bin and Jingjing's death, he received the sad news of his good brother Xiaopang's unexpected death.

First mother, father, then Li Fulai, then Jiang Bin, Jingjing, and now Xiaopang, relatives and friends around him left him one by one, Sima Ao was heartbroken!

Having lived to this age, Sima Ao is not afraid of death, what he is afraid of is watching his relatives and friends go away one by one.

It seemed that God wanted to use this method to torture Sima Ao.

Three years later, Jiang Min also passed away.

Sima Ao caressed Jiang Min lightly, his wrinkled cheeks seemed to be joking, but at the same time he seemed to be giving advice.

"If you follow me, you must suffer. Don't follow me in your next life."

Jiang Min looked at her husband in a daze.I never thought that before I was about to pass away, my husband would say such words.

Sima Ao knew that he owed Jiang Min all his life, and he said this because he was afraid that he would owe Jiang Min again in the next life.

Jiang Min didn't reply for a long time, she leaned against Sima Ao's shoulder and closed her eyes peacefully.

Although Jiang Min can't remember how she got here in the previous life, she doesn't know what the next life will be like, but she only knows that this life is happiness, being able to be with the one she loves for the rest of her life!
The fallen leaves in autumn are like yellow butterflies flying, some of them landed on the heads or shoulders of Sima Ao and Jiang Min.Looking at the intimacy of the two from a distance, it is like a pair of lovers in old age, holding on to each other's hand to watch the beautiful sunset.

..........................................

After another three years, Sima Ao felt that he was dying, so he called all the students to say his last goodbye.

All the students knelt by the bed, listening to the teacher's last entrustment and last wish!
His daughter is the only person Sima Ao can't worry about in this world.

Sima Ao first said to his daughter Sima Lian: "Didn't you always want to leave here? After Dad leaves, you can choose to leave or stay."

"Father, my daughter knew she was wrong! If my daughter does not leave, she will carry forward the academy founded by her father." Sima Lian admitted her mistake in tears.

Sima Ao shook his head in disapproval, and continued: "No. Father knows, you are a person who doesn't like being restrained. You are still young, so you should go out and wander around."

After speaking, Sima Ao called Houwa to come forward.

Houwa obediently knelt down and listened carefully to his father-in-law's explanation.

Sima Ao took a deep breath, and continued: "You are the most promising student of the teacher, and you have never failed to live up to the expectations of the teacher. Now you are the son-in-law of the teacher. After the teacher leaves, please take care of the teacher. Good 'Golden Lotus', that is your wife."

After Sima Ao finished speaking to Houwa, he turned to his daughter (Sima Lian) and said, "Although Houwa is not much older than you, he has gone through trials, so he can think calmly when encountering things. You should listen to your husband's opinion more. .”

"Ah."

Sima Lian suddenly looked at her husband, then at her father.

Houwa replied promisingly: "Teacher, don't worry, the students will take good care of Jinlian, juniors, sisters and the academy."

After hearing this, Sima Ao nodded in confidence.
