The man lowered his head again and sawed the wood.

Leave Lu Mingshu and his luggage alone.

Seeing that the steward had taken Hui Niang and Ah Sheng away, she had no choice but to take the initiative to speak: "...... Master?"

The wood was sawn into a long strip, the man straightened up, squinted his eyes at the sunlight to observe the thickness, and said: "My name is Liu Jizhen, a disciple of the fifteenth generation of Jiuyao Palace, and now I am the head of Tongtian Pavilion. If you worship in my name, you are sixteen generations of disciples. I don't care what you do in the future, don't bother me. ”

Lu Mingshu was stunned. I have heard Grandpa say before that people who learn martial arts pay attention to being a teacher for one day and a father for life, and if they worship as a teacher, they should respect their father, and their master-apprentice background is even more important than the relationship between father and son. Before coming, Hui Niang also told her that having a master is equivalent to having a serious elder. But who will say to the juniors, don't bother me? This seems to be different from what she imagined......

"So, Master, where do I live?" she asked timidly.

Liu Jizhen put down the wood and replaced the saw with a planer.

"Since I am in the Tongtian Pavilion, you will naturally live in the Tongtian Pavilion with me. ”

Lu Mingshu looked left and right, and there were only two crooked wooden houses: "This...... It's Tsutenkaku?"

Liu Jizhen stopped and squinted at her: "Isn't it literate?"

Lu Mingshu was stared at by him for a while, and hurriedly turned his head to look around, only to find that there were three seal scripts carved on the cave behind him. She recognized the word in the middle as Tian, and the two before and after it seemed to be Tonghege from the glyphs.

So, Tsutenkaku is this cave?

"Go in, there is a row of stone houses on the left, the first one is mine, you can choose where you want to live. After speaking, Liu Jizhen lowered his head and picked up the wood and ignored her.

Lu Mingshu had no choice but to pick up his luggage and move into the cave step by step.

The cave looks wide on the outside, and it's not small inside. When you enter the cave, you suddenly open up, and it looks like you have hollowed out the belly of the mountain, and you can't see the top clearly, and you can't see the bottom with your eyes.

There was the introduction of sky light in the cave, but the depths were still dark, and the coolness was to the bone, Lu Mingshu didn't dare to look at it anymore, and turned around to find the row of stone houses.

The row of stone houses is on the left with the mountain wall on its back. The first room had an old cloth garment hanging on the door, and the second room was empty and dusty.

Lu Mingshu dragged his luggage into the second room.

The stone house is very spacious, with complete tables, chairs, bed cabinets, but nothing to furnish.

Lu Mingshu walked out of the cave, saw a broom and rag outside the door of the hut, and asked, "Master, can I use these?"

Liu Jizhen didn't raise his head, but waved his hand back.

Lu Mingshu took a broom rag, fetched water with a small bucket, and moved it in step by step.

She had never done any of this work at home, so she had to try to remember the way Hui Niang did things, cleaned the house, and then made the bed.

By the time she put her luggage away, it was getting dark.

The sound of planing wood outside had stopped, and when I went out to look, Liu Jizhen was sitting on the stone in front of the hut, silently looking at the direction of the setting sun. The stubble face of the beard inexplicably made Lu Mingshu feel lonely.

The afterglow of the sunset was endless, Liu Jizhen's eyes moved, and he asked, "Is there something?"

Lu Mingshu plucked up his courage: "Master, what are we going to eat at night?"

Liu Jizhen's brows furrowed, and he seemed impatient. After enduring it, he said: "There is a kitchen on the right, look at it yourself." ”

Is this asking her to cook? Lu Mingshu replied in a low voice and re-entered the cave.

On the right side of the cave, there is also a row of stone houses, and the first one is the kitchen.

There are rice, noodles, vegetables and fruits in the kitchen, but they are not in good condition, and no one takes care of them, and they are piled up in a mess, which does not look like they can be eaten. Especially vegetables and fruits, the leaves are wilted, and some are even rotten.

Although Lu Mingshu has never cooked, he often sees Hui Niang busy, so he washes rice and makes a fire.

When it was dark, torches were lit in the cave.

At the dinner table, Lu Mingshu cautiously looked at Liu Jizhen's face.

On the table was a plate of fried greens, a bowl of boiled loofah, and two rice bowls.

The fried greens are half-burnt and half-cooked, and I don't know if I can eat them if they are black. The boiled loofah is clean, but it is as clean as a bowl of clear soup.

Liu Jizhen took a bite of rice, and then stuffed chopsticks and vegetables into his mouth.

The whole process was expressionless, and there was no joy or anger.

Master is not angry, indicating that it can still be eaten? Lu Mingshu breathed a sigh of relief and picked up the chopsticks.

As soon as she took the first bite of food, her face changed, and she opened her mouth and spit it out "wow".

What is this? It's like eating a big mouthful of sand, undercooked?

Liu Jizhen turned a blind eye and still cooked normally......

Lu Mingshu was stunned for a long time, and then went to stir-fry the vegetables, but he spit it out again.

It's so unpalatable......

She stared at Liu Ji for a long time, and couldn't help but ask, "Master, don't you think it's unpalatable?"

Liu Jizhen didn't answer, and after eating the last bite of food, he put down the bowl and left.

Lu Mingshu was stunned for a long time, silently drank the remaining loofah clear soup, and cleaned up the dishes and chopsticks.

When she returned to the house, she passed by the Master's door and heard the sound of wood being cut down again.

The light came out of it and shone on the window, and Liu Jizhen focused on planing the wooden strip into wood chips.

He stopped from time to time, facing the contrast of the lights, Lu Mingshu could imagine his focused expression at the moment.

What is Master doing? He doesn't seem to care about anything, he doesn't care about food, clothing, housing, and transportation, and even less about her apprentice, all he cares about is the carpentry in his hands.

Why doesn't he practice, just doing carpentry? Are geniuses so weird? Master...... What kind of person is he?

Lu Mingshu lowered his head and slowly returned to his room.

The lights turned on, illuminating the cold room, and only the shadows on the stone walls accompanied me.

She opened the wardrobe, took out two tablets from the package, put them on the stone platform one after the other, and muttered to herself with her palms together: "Grandpa, mother, I have already apprenticed." Master is amazing, he is the best disciple of the previous generation of Jiuyao Palace, known as a genius! Master is also very good to me, I fried the vegetables and cooked them for half a life, and he didn't scold me. In the future, I will practice martial arts well, you should take good care of yourself in heaven, don't worry about me. ”

After bowing twice, I wanted to show a smile, but the corners of my mouth twitched, but tears flowed.

Lu Mingshu hurriedly wiped the tears from her face: "I just miss you too much, not sad, don't be sad, I ......" There were too many tears and she couldn't wipe them away, so she had to cry and say, "I'll cry this time, don't you see it, okay? Don't cry anymore after crying...... Woowoo woo ......"

She covered her face, and her tears fell straight down, and she couldn't stop it.

It wasn't until the sleeves were all wet and his voice was hoarse that the crying slowly stopped.

Lu Mingshu wiped away the tears on his face, looked at the tablet with red and swollen eyes from crying, and said while sobbing: "Look, I do what I say, and I really don't cry after crying." ”

finally bowed: "Grandpa, mother, I'm going to sleep." I have to wake up early tomorrow, I don't know what Master will teach me, so you should go to bed early!"
