Chapter 197
The furnishings in the cold palace are very simple, just a creaking broken wooden bed, a wooden table with missing corners, and two wooden stools with three legs.

There was only a thin quilt on the bed, and a woman with a sallow complexion lay under the quilt.

The woman was about 20 years old, and she could vaguely see that she was once a first-class beauty.

But at this moment, she was as weak as an old man who had run out of oil and lamps, feeling that the wind would blow and she would fall down.

"Sha'er, you're finally back. I haven't seen you all afternoon. I've already asked my mother to look for you."

The woman's voice was soft and sweet, because her weakness made her tone softer.

"Mother, I'm going to find a doctor for you. You haven't recovered after lying down for so long. I'm very worried about you."

Mo Beicha's small body stood on tiptoe and held the woman's hand, looking at her worriedly.

"Sha'er, didn't mother tell you not to run around?

You just ran out, and if the father-in-law sees you, you will be beaten. "

The woman shook her head slightly, and looked at Mo Beisha helplessly. Although her tone was somewhat reproachful, her eyes were full of tenderness and worry.

"Mother, don't be angry. I have returned safely and found a doctor for you. You won't have to suffer so much soon."

Mo Beicha quickly comforted her, then looked at the old man beside him.

As soon as the old man saw her appearance, he already knew something was wrong. This woman might not have many days left.

But seeing the anticipation on Mo Beisha's face, he couldn't bear to announce the verdict directly, so he wondered if there would be a glimmer of life, so he stepped forward to check the woman's pulse.

It's a pity that the sky is not as good as people want, he can only diagnose that the woman's body has already been short-lived, and there is no way to make up for it.

"Your mother's body has long been exhausted, and now she is powerless.

No matter how powerful this old man is, it is impossible to save such a person, you should prepare early, since winter is coming, I am afraid she won't last long. "

He just now knew that the woman probably had to do heavy work for many years, and she didn't have a good living environment, so her body was getting dry day by day.

Now is the last period, and now it is late autumn, at most one month later, the woman will pass away.

"Impossible. My mother said she would grow up with me. Grandpa, are you lying to me? Mother will get better, right?"

Mo Beicha stood up excitedly, with disbelief written all over his face.

He was full of joy and wanted to find a doctor to treat his mother, thinking that he would be able to see his mother recover during the Chinese New Year this year, but he couldn't accept this fact at all.

"Sha'er, you can't be rude to your elders, have you forgotten the etiquette your mother taught you?"

The woman suddenly stretched out her hand to grab Mo Beisha who was about to rush to the old man. Only then did the old man see that the woman's arms were terribly thin.

Even though he has seen many joys and sorrows in the world, and seen all kinds of people, he still admires this woman's tenacity and courtesy.

To be able to live in the cold palace for so long and still maintain a gentle and polite heart, and to teach children to be well-mannered is something that many people cannot do.

The more he looked at it, the more he felt that this woman was a person of extraordinary beauty, and the more he thought about it, the more he felt a pity.

If I had come to the Western Regions earlier, I might have met the mother and son sooner, and maybe I could have saved their fate.

But at the same time, he is also very clear that he cannot change things like fate.

He had seen it just now, the child's fate was very strange, he was born to suffer until he was six years old.

As for the fate after the age of six, even with his current cultivation, he couldn't see through it, so he became more determined to accept this apprentice.

Since it is doomed that he cannot enjoy the happiness of his parents and family, even if he can save the woman, there will be other reasons for her death in the future.

It's just that these are secrets, and he can't tell them yet, so he can only try his best to comfort this future little apprentice.

"It's okay, the old man can understand his feelings, but the old man is not a fairy after all, so he can't change his life against the sky and save your life."

He looked at the woman and said, such a smart person must be able to understand what he meant.

Sure enough, the woman was silent for a moment thoughtfully, but she kept holding Mo Beisha with her hand, as if she was afraid that he would be impulsive again.

"It turns out that senior understands the theory of numerology, my daughter is very grateful to senior for willing to come back with my son to diagnose my daughter's pulse.

The little girl is in the cold palace, with nothing to gain, nothing to repay, and I hope that the senior will not blame her. "

The old man waved his hand indifferently. If he wanted to, he would naturally have the strength to acquire wealth and status, but he never cared about those external things.

"The old man also has a predestined relationship with this child, and hopes to accept him as a disciple.

If you can trust the old man, the old man can promise to give this child the ability to settle down, so that he will not be alone and bullied by others. "

After hearing this, the woman's eyes lighted up. She didn't care how long she had to live, and there was nothing in this world worth her nostalgia.

But the only thing she can't let go of is her child. Now that she is alive, she can protect her son and let him live safely in the cold palace.

But once she passed away, she definitely couldn't bear to watch her son being bullied after she left.

"It's Sha'er's blessing that seniors are able to take a fancy to Sha'er. Don't worry, Sha'er is a good boy, but his personality is a bit stubborn.

Now he still can't accept it for a while, I will persuade him to let him learn from the seniors at ease. "

So the old man lived in the palace like this, no one knew where he lived and how he avoided those guards.

They only saw that the old man came to the cold palace on time every day at dawn, and then began to teach Mo Beisha the basic skills.

At the beginning, Mo Beisha was very resistant to this matter, because the old man could not cure his mother, which caused a misunderstanding in his heart, thinking that the old man was a liar.

Later, he didn't know what the woman said to him, so he slowly changed his attitude, learned to accept the old man's teaching, and practiced seriously.

In addition, the old man gave the woman a bottle of medicine in private. Although this medicine could not delay her departure, it could alleviate a lot of her pain.

He had long seen that the woman was in pain, but she didn't show it in the slightest. She had been enduring it silently, thinking that she didn't want the people around her to worry.

It was also because of his mother's life-saving grace that Mo Beisha's nanny voluntarily followed them into the cold palace, and has been doing her best to take care of the mother and child.

The three of them have been living together in the cold palace for three years, and they have already become the closest relatives.

Before she passed away, the woman specially arranged for Mo Beisha to formally become a teacher, and she was finally able to hand over her son to the old man with peace of mind.

After everything was arranged, she passed away in a cold night.
