Chapter 711: One Knife and Two Cuts
Aunt Mei and Xiao Mo stood side by side in a small courtyard, and in front of them was a clear pond with brightly colored goldfish swimming leisurely in the water.
"Master, you have to find a way to go out to find Brother Lin, that Uncle Qin locked us up here and didn't let us go out, and you can see that there is no kindness at all." Xiao Mo pouted and said angrily.
She was very dissatisfied with Master Qin's arrangement, as soon as she heard that Lin Fan was in danger, Xiao Mo's heart was about to rise to her throat, but for some reason, Master Qin actually sent someone to lock them up in this small courtyard, and a pair of masters were sent around to take care of them.
And she also found that something was not quite right with the master's situation, she had a cloudy face all day, couldn't say a few words a day, and looked at the pond outside in a daze from time to time.
Stayed in the past, I heard that Lin Fan had an accident, according to the character of the master Aunt Mei, I had to go over to help no matter what, no matter how bad it was, I had to care about it, and send someone to find out the relevant news.
But this time, after the master learned about Lin Fan's matter, he didn't even make any moves, let alone help, and didn't even ask.
Xiao Mo didn't know what the master thought, after she complained a few words, she carefully observed the master's expression, but disappointingly, the master didn't seem to hear it at all, and still stared blankly at the front, staring at the goldfish in the water.
"Master, what's wrong with you? Why don't you talk all the time, is it sick? Xiao Mo looked at the master in confusion and asked in a low voice, she didn't understand why the master became like this.
Compared with the previous master, Aunt Mei has obviously changed too much, and there is a cold and arrogant temperament in the past, standing there and not understanding, but also like a white cloud in the sky, full of a kind of spirituality.
But now Aunt Mei is standing there, her mental state is like a tree, and her whole temperament is gone all of a sudden, like a lifeless living dead, without any vitality in her body.
For a master like her, this kind of change is unbelievable, and the connotation that has been accumulated over the years seems to be gone at this moment.
Aunt Mei slowly turned her head and looked at Xiao Mo with pity, her lips moved, she wanted to say something, but in the end she didn't say it, just left a sigh in her heart.
"Master, don't scare me, what's wrong with you? What is wrong with you? Xiao Mo was frightened, the master's eyes looked so strange, it made her feel unspeakably uneasy.
Aunt Mei smiled very reluctantly, reached out and touched Xiao Mo's head, and said in a doting tone with a little guilt: "Master is fine, it's just that I've been a little tired recently, so I need to take a rest." ”
Xiao Mo looked the master up and down, and asked tentatively, "Master, are you really okay?" I feel like you've been a little out of energy lately, do you want to go to the hospital? ”
"Hehe, silly boy, you forgot, the master is the doctor, and there is still a need to go to some hospital." Aunt Mei smiled slightly and gently stroked Xiao Mo's cheek with her hand.
Xiao Mo thought about it, and what he said was right, the master is a famous miracle doctor, and he still needs to go to the hospital, if there is really anything wrong, he will be cured a long time ago.
"Master, it's okay if you're fine, I've seen that you're not in good spirits lately, and I've been worried all the time, and you're empty." Xiao Mo stuck out her tongue and said.
After speaking, she suddenly remembered her true purpose, so she said with a pleading face: "Master, see if you can take me to find Brother Lin, he is in danger now, I want to help." ”
Hearing Xiao Mo's begging, Aunt Mei's face changed slightly, and she said in a slightly low voice: "Xiao Mo, you can't help with your big brother Lin's affairs, and I can't help either." ”
After that, she continued in a somewhat weak tone: "Okay, Xiao Mo, if you want to be quiet here, you can go back to your room first." ”
The corners of Xiao Mo's mouth twitched, and she wanted to say something, but the master had already turned her head away, leaving only a cold back, standing by the pond, standing alone, alone.
Xiao Mo, who is familiar with the master's temper, knows that the average master shows this attitude, which means that there is no room for negotiation in the matter, although she still wants to continue to plead, but it seems that for a while, she will not move the master.
So Xiao Mo could only turn around and leave, thinking in her heart, how could she move the master and go out with herself to find Brother Lin and help him.
The footsteps of Xiao Mo leaving faded away, and Aunt Mei's eyes were covered with a layer of fog, and she whispered to herself: "Xiao Mo, it's useless to be a teacher, and I can't even keep you." ”
At this time, Xiao Mo didn't know that the master Aunt Mei had also been sealed and cultivated, and she was like a waste, so she could only stay here honestly, and there was no room for resistance.
It's not that Aunt Mei doesn't want to help, it's not that she doesn't want to go to Lin Fan, it's just that at this moment, she is already powerless, and compared with looking for Lin Fan, she is more worried about the safety of her apprentice Xiaomo.
Just as she was standing alone at the railing, secretly sad, a voice full of apologies suddenly came from behind her: "Senior sister, you, you, are you okay?" ”
Elder Qin stood not far away, his expression was embarrassed and worried, his speech was slurred, his tone was full of indebtedness, and the gaze in his eyes was extremely unnatural.
"Elder Qin, from the moment you started, I said that the relationship between you and my fellow disciples ended here, and I was able to restrain my hands, which can be regarded as repaying your past kindness."
The layer of fog in Aunt Mei's eyes disappeared suddenly, and her sad face regained her coldness and arrogance, and she didn't even turn her head back, but just said lightly, as if she was talking to a stranger.
"Senior sister, I also have a last resort, for the sake of Hongmen, I have wronged you this time, but I promise, those words are just talking, I will not hurt you."
Elder Qin said with a complicated face, he knew in his heart how bad things had been done this time, and from now on, the rift between him and his junior sister would be difficult to repair.
"Elder Qin, I'm not a child, I don't have to say this kind of thing in the future, why you did this, what you want to get, I know it in my heart."
"Success or failure is empty, I hope you won't regret it, now things have developed far beyond your control, and you have gradually become a puppet of the six major sects."
Aunt Mei said coldly, her voice was not hurried or slow, there was no complaint in her tone, no hatred, only a kind of indifferent alienation.
"Senior sister, no matter what you think, I really don't mean to hurt you, I just want to borrow you and Xiao Mo to lure Lin Fan out, as for right or wrong, time will tell."
Elder Qin sighed leisurely, as if lamenting that no one understood his painstaking efforts.
After speaking, he took a deep look at Aunt Mei's back, took a long breath, and turned around to leave.
At this time, Aunt Mei turned her back to him and said coldly: "This time, I will not intercede for you again, nor will I do anything for Hongmen again, your affection, Hongmen's affection, I will pay it back." ”
Hearing this, Elder Qin's body shook suddenly, his feet paused, and his body stood stiffly in place, from Aunt Mei's words, he heard a resolute decision, a decision to break in two, not only for him, but also for their common master, Hongmen.
