"Let's start eating right away. Let's go out to eat today!" Ma Qingyi said excitedly.
"It's because there's no one to cook here that we want to eat out!" Mo Yufeng's words were like a basin of cold water poured on Ma Qingyi.
"Mo Yufeng, you are really trying to piss me off!" Ma Qingyi said angrily, picked up the sword in his hand, drew it out and pointed it at him.
Mo Yufeng raised his eyebrows slightly, curled up the corners of his lips, stood up, and walked towards Ma Qingyi without any fear. Instead, Ma Qingyi was a little scared. She was afraid that the sword would accidentally scratch her, so she stepped back and quickly put away the sword.
Mo Yufeng hugged her and said, "Let's go eat!"
"You...don't hold me and walk with me!" Ma Qingyi said, grabbing his arm tightly.
The figures of the two people were stretched longer and longer by the sunlight. Su Mian was smiling behind them, with a hint of sadness in her eyes. She glanced at Qingshi's room, her hand unconsciously placed on her shoulder. The scene of Qingshi taking drugs for her came to her mind. Her ears turned red instantly, she covered her hot face, and hurried back to the room.

"How long does Your Highness plan to stay here?" Qingshi asked.
"How long do you want to stay?" Mo Yufeng suddenly looked at Ma Qingyi.
Ma Qingyi was stunned for a moment, then put down the chopsticks in her hand and swallowed the unchewed food in her mouth. "My throat hasn't fully recovered yet, and we won't be here for long... By the way, is there anything fun to do nearby?"
"Fun? It must be the Wangu Tower!" Su Mian said.
"Wan Gu Tower? What is that?" Ma Qingyi asked curiously.
"Wan Gu Lou is an ancient alliance..."
"No!" Qingshi suddenly interrupted Su Mian seriously, lowered his head, and looked solemn.
Everyone at the table fell silent and looked at Qingshi.
"Why?" Mo Yufeng asked indifferently.
"Your Highness, do you know about the great war that took place a hundred years ago? Many people died and blood flowed like a river. That war still makes people shudder. In that war, there was a general on the victorious side who was so cruel and merciless that he separated the flesh and bones of all the captives and enemies and built this Ten Thousand Bones Tower with their bones, hence the name!" Qing Shiyin said coldly.
"That was all in the past, so there's nothing wrong with going now!" Mo Yufeng said indifferently, "After all, the winner is the king and the loser is the enemy!"
Qingshi's face became increasingly gloomy, the veins on his neck bulged, and his hands clenched into fists.
"Master! What's wrong with you?" Su Mian looked at him worriedly.
Qingshi stood up and said, "I'm going out for a while!"
Su Mian looked at him, not knowing what was going on. She quickly stood up and said, "I'll go take a look!" and left.
Ma Qingyi was a little puzzled and looked at Mo Yufeng. Mo Yufeng shrugged in confusion.
As he leaned forward, he leaned his hands on the railing and lowered his head.
Su Mian walked up to him and asked softly, "Master, what's wrong with you?"
Qing Shi sighed deeply and shook his head, "It's okay!"
Su Mian was a little worried. Seeing him about to turn around, she grabbed his arm and said, "Master! Although Su Mian can't do anything for you, I know that if you talk about some things, you might feel less depressed!"
Su Mian looked at him, and for a moment he was in a trance. Then he held her in his arms, his voice a little hoarse, "Are you stupid? I've already told you, I'm just using you as my hand! Why are you still caring so much?"
"Once a teacher, always a father! Besides, Master, you saved me!" Su Mian said in a low voice with a red face.
Qingshi let her go and looked into the distance. "The Wangu Tower contains the bones of my Chen family. I feel depressed every time I go there!"
"Isn't Master from Baihan Country? But the Ancient Alliance originally belonged to the territory of Moyu Country! How could Master's ancestors come to Moyu Country?" Su Mian didn't understand.
"Our Chen family has had generals for generations. The whole country was in chaos at that time, and no one could tell who the man you killed was. It's a pity that... they died just like that. I wonder how many people from the Chen family were in that Wangu Tower!" Qingshi suddenly slapped the railing with his palm!
Su Mian was frightened and said, "The master's ancestors must be very powerful!"
"What's so great about that? If I were powerful, I wouldn't be torn apart by human bones. If I were powerful, I wouldn't become a brick and tile of this Wan Gu Building!" Qing Shi suddenly shouted.
Su Mian felt a little heartbroken when she saw his expression. She reached out to support him and said, "Master, you are wrong to think so. If it weren't for that war, how could the country be divided into four kingdoms? How could the country be pacified? Without pacification, how could we have the peace we have today? So, Master's ancestors sacrificed their lives for the present. Now they stand in the Wangu Tower as the best memorial to these warriors! They are worthy of our respect! Master, you should be happy!"
Qingshi turned his head to look at her, and suddenly hugged her tightly. "Thank you, thank you!"
Su Mian smiled and hugged him tightly. "I like to see Master happy! Because Master is very beautiful. As a woman, I am a little jealous of her. So Master should smile more often. This will attract patients, and then we will make more money and eat delicious food more often!"
"You only know how to eat!" Qingshi said with a smile.
…
"Are you back?" Ma Qingyi asked.
Qingshi smiled and shook his head.
Su Mian sat down beside her, lowered her head, and her cheeks were a little red. Ma Qingyi suddenly laughed, looked at Su Mian, and said teasingly, "Su Mian, you've only been out for a while, why is your face so red!"
Su Mian quickly covered her face, glanced at Qingshi's face out of the corner of her eyes, then lowered her head and said, "It's too hot outside, the sun... the sun!"
Ma Qingyi smiled and nodded. Suddenly, Mo Yufeng's big hand pressed on Ma Qingyi's head, "Eat, don't talk!"
"Okay, okay, I get it!" Ma Qingyi struggled and took his hand away.
"Let's go to Wangu Tower this afternoon! By the way, I'll take you to see the scenery of the ancient alliance, because this is the sedimentation of history!" Qingshi said.
Su Mian stared at his profile, thoughtfully, and lowered her head.
Wangulou
Ma Qingyi stroked the handrail of the stairs. For some reason, she always felt a sense of oppression, making it hard to breathe. She pulled the corner of Mo Yufeng's clothes and said, "Don't you feel breathless?"
Mo Yufeng turned around and looked at her worriedly, "What's wrong? Are you feeling unwell?"
"No! It's me who feels that I can feel the feeling of this building. They seem to be in pain, as if this building has a soul! Their souls seem to be suppressed here and unable to go out. The cold and darkness... are invading them!" Ma Qingyi frowned and said sadly with tears in the corners of her eyes.
Mo Yufeng frowned, "You..."
"It's okay, everyone will have this feeling when they come here!" said Qingshi who came up later.
"She looks very uncomfortable. Is there any way to make her feel less uncomfortable?" Mo Yufeng looked at Ma Qingyi with heartache.
