Time flies by like a white horse, and five days pass in the blink of an eye.

In the past five days, the master has done nothing but silently accompanied the girl to practice calligraphy.

I practice again and again but it always comes back to those two words.

The Master never taught girls any other words.

With Lu Yuan by the girl's side, it didn't matter whether he was literate or not.

When he first met Lu Yuan, he knew what kind of vision and knowledge this young-looking man had.

He just wanted to see more of his daughter in his last days.

After five days, his relationship with the girl had become somewhat closer, but they were still only slightly familiar strangers.

But for him, enough was enough.

The girl's handwriting became more and more beautiful, just like her person, with soft lines and an ethereal fairy tale.

When her fingertips came into contact with the earth, she was filled with emotions that she didn't even understand.

Master understands that this is the girl's vague joy and attachment to her master, and it is a taboo between master and disciple in the eyes of the world.

But he wasn't worried.

He does not have the ability to predict the future, but just like a widely circulated storybook, the endings of many stories are already written at the beginning, but few people notice it.

He can see the end.

Lu Yuan's eyes never changed, Lu Yuan's movements were always soothing, and Lu Yuan's tone was always calm...

Lu Yuan never accompanied the girl to practice calligraphy. He spent all day making and drinking tea in the school, but the master could not see that he had any love for tea.

Yes, he drank it. This was the reason why Lu Yuan drank tea.

This is a man who knows all about the emotions of the world but has no emotions at all.

He can get very close to anyone, but no one will ever really get close to him.

The Master looked at the girl who wrote the word 'Master' on the ground over and over again with soft eyes.

He had not eaten for five days and was now in a state of disrepair.

Lu Yuan never tried to persuade him because he knew his intention.

The girl didn't speak, because she didn't know that people need to eat.

After the Master squatted down, it was difficult to even get up.

But he still didn't want to eat, and just looked at the girl who was practicing calligraphy seriously as usual.

The sun was as soft as ever, shining brightly on the girl's almost perfect figure.

The children did not come to school again, because the Master did not knock on the door from door to door as usual at dawn.

The children did not want to study, and their parents avoided the Master.

If it weren't for the master's daily visits, no one would come to this dilapidated school.

Except Goudan.

Goudan grew up eating the food of hundreds of families. Everyone can be regarded as his benefactor, but he doesn't like everyone.

Because he could feel that everyone hated him, many people put something into the leftovers when they handed them to him.

Soil, stones, miscellaneous hair, insects, feces, sewage, urine...

Some were accidentally soiled, some were added secretly, and some were placed in front of him.

He encountered everything, but he still swallowed it all.

Because if you don’t eat it, you will die.

Everyone would smile at him, but there were many things hidden in his smile that he didn't understand, which was annoying.

He hated them all, except the Master.

The Master treated him differently from everyone else, and would share his meager food with him at the dining table.

I will teach him etiquette, teach him how to read, teach him how to survive, and teach him many, many things.

Will regard the school as his shelter.

Goudan did not live in the school because everyone hated him. He was afraid that everyone would hate him if he accepted his wife, so he built a small doghouse with wood not far from the school.

The kennel was filled with hay and cotton wool that his master had found for him, and it was very warm.

The kennel was his home, very close to the Master's home.

He would come to school every day, and his master would give him food, treat his illnesses, and teach him principles. Occasionally, he would catch some small game and dig some wild vegetables to give to his master.

But he mostly only comes when the other children are away.

He hated most children as much as he hated their parents.

Whenever they met in school, the Master would ask him to stay and listen together. He would learn the things the Master taught faster than anyone else, but because he hated those children, he would always pretend to sleep in the school to avoid those commands. His disgusted looks and harsh words.

In the past five days, other children did not come to the school again, and he did not go again, only daring to watch from a distance.

Because there is a fairy-like elder sister beside the Master. She has the most beautiful face in the world, clean and clear eyes, and a temperament that is not stained by the world.

She rarely smiles, and she only smiles when facing her big brother who is always expressionless.

Goudan was lucky enough to see it several times from a distance.

Her smile was different from the smiles on other people's faces that Goudan had seen before, just like the spring breeze blowing through the mountains with the warm sun in February, carrying all the beauty in the world.

Goudan liked his elder sister's smile very much, but he didn't dare to get even close to her.

Because that will make the inferiority complex that has been buried in my heart unable to escape.

He only dared to hide his dirty little body behind a big tree not far from the school, with only half of his head exposed, watching from a distance.

But today, he mustered up the courage to run towards the school.

Not directed at the elder sister, but at the Master.

In just five days, the master had lost a lot of weight, his body was emaciated, and his complexion was pale.

Goudan knew that he was hungry.

He was also hungry because of his stubbornness, but since he let go of his stubbornness, he has never been hungry again.

He didn't know why Master Dao was starving, but if he didn't eat, Master would die.

There were some leftovers from others' charity hidden in his kennel, but he was not prepared to give them to his wife because they were dirty.

So it took a lot of effort for him to catch a very small rabbit.

The rabbit was restless and tried to escape, but he stoned it to death.

He carried the bloody rabbit and ran quickly to the school.

But when the master saw him, his face changed drastically, and his thin body stood in front of the elder sister, blocking her sight.

"What are you doing here? Let's go!"

Goudan was stunned on the spot while holding the rabbit. He didn't know why Daozi's attitude towards him was completely different from before.

He often gave game to the Master, and the Master would accept it calmly and share it with him after it was cooked. He ate more and the Master ate less.

But now, he clearly noticed the change in Master's eyes.

There was fear and repulsion in his eyes, much like the way everyone looked at him.

But the Master was not looking at him, but at the bloody rabbit in his hand.

Goudan did not leave, he stubbornly handed over the rabbit in his hand.

"for you."

"Take it! Take it quickly! I don't want it!"

The Master looked increasingly nervous and flustered, but the weakness in his voice could not be concealed.

Goudan didn't make any movement and held the rabbit in front of him motionless.

The girl who was squatting on the ground practicing calligraphy seriously was interrupted by the conversation between the two. She stood up, looked around the husband who was blocking her, and immediately saw the miserable-looking rabbit that had long since lost its breath of life.

"You...how could you do such a thing!"

The girl waved her hand, and the rabbit in Goudan's hand disappeared and appeared in her hand.

The still warm blood made the girl's body tremble uncontrollably, and her eyes were full of sympathy and intolerance.

This was the first time Gou Dan heard his eldest sister speak, but the words he spoke made her good image in Gou Dan's heart instantly shattered.

"Give it back to me! This is for Master!"

He ran forward with all his teeth and claws, trying to snatch the rabbit from the girl's hand.

But the girl just waved her hand slightly, and Goudan was frozen in place.

She stared at Goudan, her beautiful eyes red and her face full of anger.

"It's alive and well, why did you smash it to death?"

Goudan was stunned. He didn't know why this big sister felt sad and angry about the death of a rabbit.

Is the master's life worse than a rabbit in the eyes of the other party?

What followed was even greater anger.

He blushed and shouted, "Give me the rabbit!"

The master's thin figure stood between the two of them. He stretched out his dry palm and touched Goudan's little head, and said with a smile: "I appreciate your kindness. Go back, be good!"

This was the first time Goudan saw his master smile like this. There was sadness, relief, self-blame in the smile... countless emotions intertwined into something he couldn't understand.

Goudan was a little at a loss.

Inside the school.

Lu Yuan was making tea, drinking it for himself as if he had just arrived here five days ago.

He saw everything in his eyes, but his eyes were always calm.

In the past five days, the master has not eaten anything, and has not touched a morsel of the long-cherished concubine. He only drinks some water every day.

Because it’s hard for girls to accept.

The master understood it when the girl said after thinking about it, "It smells like the whine of young shoots."

He understood what it meant to be free from the world, what it meant to be carefree, what it meant to be pure and innocent.

After teaching and educating people for many years, he has met many people, encountered many things, and understood many truths.

It was precisely because of this that he understood how rare and precious these things were.

Also know that once these things are lost, they will never come back.

Growing up is cruel because you have to accept many things that are difficult to accept.

Many people are happy to grow up because knowing more things can help them live better.

But the girl doesn't need it. She has no worldly desires and lives a life that everyone envies.

So even though he knew that the girl's character was incompatible with the world, the master wanted to preserve this innocence for her.

He didn't recognize the girl because he didn't want to add to her worries, didn't want her to be exposed to hatred, and wanted her to be carefree forever.

He insisted on not eating because he did not want to destroy the beauty of the world in her eyes and wanted her to be happy forever.
