"I didn't ...... Nothing, your progress has surprised the master too much. Only then did Uncle Wei reply.

"Well, who am I!" I smirked.

"You are Anton, my apprentice. Uncle Wei suddenly replied very seriously.

"Master, what's wrong with you today, I always feel weird......" I said in a daze.

"Eating and eating, the master is a little too happy. Uncle Wei took the bowl and drank the soup.

I didn't pay much attention to Uncle Wei's abnormality, I was immersed in my own progress.

In the afternoon, Uncle Wei and I have been busy in the pharmacy, the weather is getting colder and colder, and the number of patients coming to the pharmacy has also increased.

I was busy until six o'clock in the afternoon, when I slipped out the door and smoked a cigarette.

Halfway through my cigarette, my phone rang in my pocket.

I took out my phone and looked at it, it was an unfamiliar number.

"Hey, who are you?" I pressed the answer button.

"You're Anton. The other party asked.

"It's me. ”

"Mr. Shangguan Kunpeng has passed away. ”

……

"Toot ......"

I hung up the phone for a long time and I was still stunned with my phone, although I knew the result, but hearing it with my own ears is another matter.

It was as if a wrinkled face and a head full of gray hair appeared in front of me, nodding and smiling at me in a wheelchair.

"Xiao An, I'm going to be lazy again, don't come in quickly. Uncle Wei's voice came through the door.

"It's coming. I threw away the cigarette butt that had long since been extinguished, turned around and went into the pharmacy.

In the evening, Uncle Wei and I went out to find a small restaurant to eat together, and Uncle Wei seemed to be in a bad mood and offered to drink.

"Xiao An, have you followed me for more than half a year?" After taking two sips of wine, Uncle Wei suddenly asked.

"Hmm. I nodded.

"Time flies so fast......," Uncle Wei sighed.

"yes......" I sighed.

Uncle Wei's sigh resonated with me, in the past, my biggest goal in life was just to gain a foothold in Jiangcheng, and it was best to have my own house and a home...... At that time, this goal was still quite far away for me, and I always felt tired from struggling every day, and I would feel that time passed very slowly.

Since I met Uncle Wei, my life situation has suddenly turned 180 degrees, the people I know are different, the circle of contact is also different, money is not so out of reach for me, and having a home after knowing Yaoyao has become realistic.

If it weren't for that accident......

I don't know if what I've been through is good or bad, it's funny to say, and sometimes I miss the days when I struggled to make a living every day.

"Cherish what's in front of you. Uncle Wei's gaze swept over my face and said softly.

I glanced at Uncle Wei, nodded, and then smiled again.

"Master, what's wrong with you today......

"What's wrong with me?" Uncle Wei was stunned.

"Sentimental, do you have something on your mind?" I asked.

"I'm so old, I've seen through everything, where is the heart, people, I'm old, I can't help but nag. Uncle Wei smiled.

Uncle Wei is obviously covering up, he doesn't want to say that I naturally won't ask after him, in fact, Uncle Wei's changes have always been there, especially after Feng Henian's incident, Uncle Wei has had obvious changes, although he is hiding it well, but I can still detect it.

"Master, it's about to be the New Year, I'm going home, what about you?" I asked.

"Go home?" Uncle Wei asked rhetorically.

"Yes, I haven't been home for more than half a year, my mother has called several times, and I always have to go home for the New Year. I laughed.

"If you don't say it, I'll forget...... It's time for you to go home. Uncle Wei nodded.

"What about you, where are you spending the New Year?" I asked again.

"I'm not going anywhere, I'm in the store. Uncle Wei waved his hand at me: "I am a lonely old man, very free." ”

Uncle Wei's face was calm, but I couldn't help but have a sour nose, Uncle Wei has always behaved very freely, but I don't think so, I always feel that Uncle Wei has something hidden in his heart, he must have some sad past, maybe this is the reason why he is alone.

"Master, haven't you thought about finding a wife or something?" I asked boldly with the strength of the wine.

"What are you talking about!" Uncle Wei was holding up his wine glass, and a sip of wine almost squirted out: "Say it again." ”

"I didn't ...... It's nothing. I quickly shook my hand.

"The wings are stiff, you dare to talk to the master about anything, I see that your skin is itchy again!" Uncle Wei stretched out his hand and knocked on my head.

"I just said casually, don't take it seriously. I hid and laughed.

"It's not okay to say it casually......"

"Master, you're too domineering, but I care about you......"

The mood became warm again between talking and laughing.

After drinking, Uncle Wei and I returned together, and they all said that wine is a man's best friend, and it is true that the troubles in my heart seem to have been washed away after drinking.

Back in the room, I sat down on the bed and looked naturally at the glass bottle on the table.

One glance at me, I stood up!

Rubbing my eyes, I reached for the glass bottle.

The little beetle in the bottle actually moved! It slammed into the bottle, and I saw a few pieces of carapace at the bottom of the bottle!

"Master!" I excitedly picked up the bottle and ran towards Uncle Wei's room.

……

"It turned out that it was shedding its shell, and it had to move. ”

"You haven't grown much yet...... Master, what should I do now?"

"Do you think you need to feed it some more red dragon grass leaves?"

Holding the glass jar, I was very excited.

"Have you tried to communicate with it?" Uncle Wei stared at the little beetle in the jar and suddenly asked.

"Not yet. I shook my head.

"Try it. Uncle Wei reached out and patted me on the shoulder.

I nodded, put down the glass jar, and sat down cross-legged.

"Don't rush, take your time. Uncle Wei instructed.

Uncle Wei's tone was very calm, and I took a deep breath and fixed my eyes on the glass jar.

I tried to communicate with the little beetle with insect control, and released a trace of soul power to haunt the little beetle, I have tried many times before, and each time I can't get a response from the little beetle, so I don't have much confidence.

There is gradually a layer of fine sweat on my forehead, and the temperature in the room is not high, but I still sweat, and it is actually very costly to release soul power to control insects, Uncle Wei said that the depth of the soul power of the insect master is also related to the level of insects that can be controlled, and the deeper the skill, the higher the level of insects that the insect master can control.

We have always suspected that the little beetle is Jin Leizi, I have been unable to communicate with it for a long time, and Uncle Wei has also analyzed that maybe my skills are still shallow, and a refining insect of Jin Leizi's level is not something I can control at all.

A trace of stubbornness in my heart made me hold on, the sweat on my forehead became more and more, and my heart became smaller and smaller, maybe I should let it go, it doesn't belong to me!
