"You are the one with the worst talent and qualification among the several apprentices under the master's knees, so I consider leaving the external affairs to you to handle for the teacher, just to make up for your poor qualifications and low cultivation from other aspects, so as not to be despised and ridiculed by your senior brothers. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 The old man sighed softly and said, "It's a pity, you are worse than cultivation. Don't think that if you pretend to be so pitiful now, as a teacher, you can't guess how arrogant you are in Chen Jin's house! If not, why suffer such a big loss? The teacher told you that there are people outside the sky, don't think that you have some magic cultivation, you can call yourself a master in front of ordinary mortals, arrogant and rude, especially in terms of magic, you must be cautious, you can't cast spells at will, today, you have a heel, right? ”

"What the master taught is that if the apprentice knows that he is wrong, the apprentice must change his life." Xu Lin said in a choked tone: "Please, Master, give the apprentice another chance." ”

The old man snorted and said, "As a teacher, I also trust you too much, so I didn't ask you a few more words!" ”

"Master......" Xu Lin knelt on the ground with a pout.

"Xiao Linzi, that scroll is very important, for thousands of years, how many people and sects have spent their lives looking for it, every time it is just because of a specious piece of news, it will cause fierce bloody conflicts. Since the beginning of World War II, it has triggered major forces in the global magic world, and some hidden but powerful mysterious organizations have been fighting endlessly. The old man looked at this apprentice who was not successful in cultivation and conduct, and had the intention to kill him, but he also needed him to continue to earn money for his own family outside, and if there was anything difficult to solve in the future, he could also be dragged out of the black pot. So after a slight pause, the old man said earnestly: "We have been investigating for so many years, and we did not hesitate to cooperate with the Oriental Warlock School to find this clue, you are so blatantly looking for it, in case the news is leaked, let alone finding the scroll, the monstrous waves that the entire Qimen rivers and lakes and global forces are rapidly rolling up will overturn us into hell in an instant!" ”

Xu Lin trembled when he heard this, and was so shocked that he kowtowed like pounding garlic and confessed his mistake to his master.

It seems that he really didn't expect that a scroll would have such a bizarre and terrifying origin, and the leakage of news would be more likely to cause such serious consequences.

"This has come to this, alas." The old man shook his head and said, "Without my instructions, don't contact Chen Jin and his relatives and friends again." ”

"So, are you still investigating?" Xu Lin raised his head and asked.

The old man didn't answer, and said lightly: "Tell me, what do you think about this matter now......"

"Master." Xu Lin was relieved, knowing that now the master had no chance of killing him in his heart, and he was willing to give him another chance. So Xu Lin said seriously: "At first, after I found out some things about Chen Zimo, I also suspected that he practiced magic, his godfather named Hu Si may be a hidden master in the Qimen rivers and lakes, but after careful investigation, I found that the late old man surnamed Hu was an ordinary god of dancing in the countryside, and he didn't have any real talent at all." And Chen Zimo has no qualifications to practice magic, and he is even worse than ordinary people, and he can't even have the slightest essence in his body. Therefore, it is impossible for him to practice magic. As for Chen Jin, he personally has a very strong innate essence, but he is not suitable for cultivation, he should be a mutant with some kind of supernatural ability, and the entourage named Bai Qilin next to him is a master who has entered the Tao with martial arts, and he already has the fact that everyone has it, I even suspect that he has reached the level of a martial arts grandmaster. However, according to the previous investigation, it can be confirmed that they have never had contact with Qimen Jianghu and Warlocks, so it is impossible to understand how precious that scroll is, and it was purely by accident that Chen Jin got that scroll in the first place. For this reason, I also specifically investigated the people who witnessed the gambling before and after and confirmed that it was true. Therefore, it is very likely that the scroll was really searched and taken away by the police when the house was raided a few years ago. ”

"Hmm." The old man nodded slowly, frowned slightly, and said: "You mean, it is also possible that the old gambler named Deng Jianmin has been targeted by the official after accidentally finding the scroll in the antique street in the capital, so Chen Jin will be arrested and imprisoned?" ”

"Yes, this possibility is not impossible, after all, ......" Xu Lin pondered and said: "He was already the famous Yanyun gambling king back then, and he was both black and white in Yanyun Province, which can be described as a hand and eye, and I checked the details of the case where his gang was wiped out, and found that there was not enough evidence to sentence him to prison." If it was really because he was so popular, so the official wanted to shoot the first bird and make an example of the monkey, then the crimes committed by his gang were enough to shoot him eight times. Why, just sentenced him to six years in prison? Master, if it is really the official action for the scroll, and the arrest of Chen Jin is just to cover people's eyes, the scroll, we really can't check it down. ”

The old man frowned and thought for a while, and said, "Continue to investigate, but be more careful and secretive, and investigate the policemen who arrested Chen Jin and searched his house back then." ”

"Yes, Master!" Xu Lin bowed his head and agreed.

"Go ahead." The old man leaned back on the sofa, closed his eyes as if he was a little sleepy, and said lightly: "Xiaolinzi, thank you for your hard work." ”

"It's all in vain." Xu Lin said respectfully, and then got up and left.

After the door was closed, the old man opened his eyes slightly, looked at the closed door, and the corners of his lips lifted, revealing a slight contemptuous sneer-Jiang, it's still old and spicy! Just now he asked Xu Lin to talk about his views on this matter, and sure enough, Xu Lin's investigation and analysis can be said to be meticulous, and his impulsive and stupid performance in Chen Jin today is simply like two people.

The old man thought that his apprentice was stupid and wanted to show his vanity everywhere, so he would do such a high-profile stupid thing.

Now it seems that it is deliberately clumsy.

Its purpose is nothing more than greed, wanting to find the scroll and keep it for yourself.

"Xiao Linzi, you are an apprentice of the teacher, no matter how shrewd you calculate, how can you escape from the palm of the teacher?" The old man smiled slightly, closing his eyes and resting his mind.

……

It was already past seven o'clock in the evening.

Room 101, a three-unit building in Zhangqiu County Education Community.

Everyone knows that Teacher Sun Yun, who has a strong heart, is sitting on the sofa in the living room at the moment. Her eyes were red, her eyes were full of tears, and she said in a somewhat choked tone: "Zimo, you must accept this money, otherwise the teacher will always have this disease in his heart." ”

"Yes, Zimo, we don't know how to thank you, you said, if you don't accept this little money, our whole family will always think about it in the future." Qi Jingye echoed his wife's words and said, "Besides, in order to save Xiaojing, you have suffered so much, we see it in our eyes, and we really don't want to go." ”

Although she is still skinny, her complexion is getting better and better, and Qi Xiaojing, who is obviously a little fatter, also held her mother's arm, snuggled up to her mother, blinked a pair of big watery eyes, and said softly: "Chen Zimo, you, although you are still very young, with your ability, you can definitely be called a master, accept it." ”

Sun Yun glanced at her husband, Qi Jingye understood, picked up the wad of money on the coffee table, stuffed it into Chen Zimo's trouser pocket, and said while covering it: "Zimo, we have pushed back and forth several times, you said you are a child...... Do you have to let me rely on the old and sell the old, and order you from the elders' shelves? Obedient! ”

Chen Zimo, who had been pushing for a long time, no longer shirked, and said embarrassedly: "Then, that's okay, anyway, if there is anything in the future, although I don't go to school in the county No. 1 middle school, but Teacher Sun, you can still find me at any time......"

"Well, you're the best student your teacher has ever met." Sun Yun squeezed out a smile and said, "I'm really reluctant to let you go." ”

"My father's fate is hard to disobey, and my father is also thinking about me......"

"Yes, pity the hearts of parents in the world." Qi Jingye nodded in agreement.

For a while, everyone didn't know what to say - in fact, they could have had a short chat about some other topics, but because Chen Jin had come to visit in the afternoon, and was forced by Chen Jin's strong momentum and his attitude that people did not dare to resist and could not question between words, at this time, they sat down with Chen Zimo, and Sun Yun's family of three naturally couldn't speak freely.

"What kind of ...... that" Chen Zi pondered silently, and said with an embarrassed smile: "My father, his man talks and does things, sometimes he seems too strong, you, don't take it to heart, he went back from here this evening, and I quarreled with him because he came to your house." Later, he also felt quite guilty, so he asked me to apologize to Mr. Sun and your family on his behalf. Because of this matter, needless to say, it has to be like a spy, and it is absolutely confidential, in fact, isn't it just for the sake of face, these days, as long as you don't cheat people and don't hurt people, what's not to see, right? ”

"Yes, yes, yes." Qi Jingye immediately nodded and said - after Chen Jin left their house this afternoon, he has been afraid, because after his daughter's body recovered, he was in a good mood when he saw that day by day, and when the child's aunt's family came to visit the house that day, Qi Jingye drank a little wine, and when he played chess with his brother-in-law, he leaked his mouth without paying attention.

Now seeing that Chen Zimo didn't care, Qi Jingye's hanging heart finally let go of a lot.

Sun Yun was a little surprised, and then didn't think much about it, smiled and nodded, as a people's teacher, although Chen Zimo saved her daughter, she herself accepted and believed in the authenticity of metaphysics, but she still couldn't accept it, and widely preached this kind of superstitious things.

But in Chen Zimo's words just now, there was a sentence that made her quite approve - don't cheat people, don't hurt people, what's not to see?

Oh, yes!

As long as you can do good deeds and save lives, it is much stronger than any doctrine and great truth.
