- "Memoirs of Fan"
It took a long time for Mu Yuanzhi to ease up from his excitement. Of course, during this period, he did not stop the treatment of Cao Jinling.
During the treatment, the pure white mask slowly dimmed. A master like Bai Wuxing could see that Mu Yuanzhi was instilling the energy of the imperial arts into Cao Jinling's body.
It was a process of purifying the marrow, and not all temple disciples could enjoy such a treatment: cleansing the marrow with such extravagant, pure energy.
As the last glimmer of light from the mask disappeared, Cao Jinling finally opened her eyes slowly.
The first moment she opened her eyes, she saw a flawless white light; The white light faded away, revealing a handsome face.
Cao Jinling's cheeks were slightly red, and she felt that her vision was a little blurry. Who the hell is this, and where am I?
Thinking so in her heart, she couldn't help but ask, "I...... Is it dead? ”
Mu Yuanzhi felt that this girl's question was ridiculous, so he didn't want to answer, so he just held Cao Jinling with one hand and waited for her to regain consciousness.
After another half a moment, Cao Jinling finally recalled the scene before fainting. She looked around, the night was already dark, and there were a dozen figures standing beside her, looking at her with torches.
"Miss Cao, you're finally awake." Company Commander Kong took a breath, turned to hug his fists, bowed and thanked Mu Yuanzhi: "Thank you for coming to the rescue." ”
"You saved me?" Cao Jinling looked at Mu Yuanzhi curiously, she had never seen such a handsome man, her clothes were also very clean, and the pin on her chest was also very chic, which was her favorite sun shape.
"Sun brooch!" Cao Jinling hurriedly broke free from Mu Yuanzhi's arms, and wanted to kneel down on one knee, but because of weakness, she knelt on both knees, and saluted tremblingly: "Disciple Cao Jinling, meet Master Divine Master." ”
"Divine Master?!"
"How could the top of the temple come to a country like ours?"
"It's a divine master at such a young age, could it be a fake?"
"Shhhhhh If you offend the Divine Master, beware of it and it will be gone in the blink of an eye. The recruits gathered around looked surprised and whispered.
Although Mu Yuanzhi heard the discussion clearly, he was not angry, and still smiled at Cao Jinling and said: "Little girl, the 'greeting ceremony' only needs to kneel on one knee, and you kneel with both knees full, but you are doing the 'apprenticeship ceremony'." ”
Cao Jinling also noticed the inconsistency of etiquette, and quickly changed from two knees to one knee.
Bai Wuxing was beside him and didn't say a word until Mu Yuanzhi said the joke of "apprenticeship", and then he began to carefully look at the little girl in front of him.
"The apprentice you're talking about, is that her?" After some investigation, Bai Wuxing concluded that Cao Jinling was already a wasted person, so the tone of inquiry became a little incredulous.
Mu Yuanzhi did not answer Bai Wuxing's question directly, but asked Cao Jinling with a smile: "If I want to accept you as a personal disciple, are you willing?" ”
Cao Jinling was a little bored. I should already be a wasted person, and I will not be a disciple of the temple soon, why, why? Why did a priest suddenly appear and want to accept him as a disciple?
Mu Yuanzhi was not in a hurry, he just waited quietly, his face full of confidence.
"Jin Ling knew that she was already a waste, and she didn't dare to become a disciple of the master, and she was even more afraid of insulting the entire temple."
"As long as you are willing to worship me as a teacher, don't say that you are a waste, even if it is a dead person, I can help you reach the supreme realm of divine arts."
Mu Yuanzhi's words were like turbulent waves, slapping Cao Jinling's heart, which had lost hope.
She had lost the opportunity to practice magic forever because of impulse, and she regretted it and despaired. But at this time, Mu Yuanzhi appeared, like a lighthouse in the deep sea, illuminating the way out of the sea of despair.
Cao Jinling's eyes were red, and her knees fell to the ground again. She kowtowed three times in a dignified and extremely proper manner, and said in a trembling voice: "Disciple Cao Jinling, meet the master." ”
……
Back to the humble hut at the foot of the mountain.
When the last rays of the setting sun converged back to the end of the mountain, the white horse also ran back to the hut. It knelt gracefully, allowing the two frightened children to come down smoothly.
Speaking of being frightened, in fact, Land Rover is even worse than Chen Fan'er. Chen Fan'er was raised by Granny Qin since she was a child, and for as long as she can remember, some fierce beasts have appeared outside the house from time to time. Although he couldn't remember exactly how those beasts were driven away, Chen Fan'er only remembered that a few days after each beast attacked, the meals would be particularly sumptuous, with a lot of fresh meat to eat.
"Sister Fan'er, you say, is Granny Qin in danger?" Land Rover said with some concern.
Chen Fan'er walked into the house, lit the oil lamp in front of the hall, and then lay down in front of the dining table tiredly, and replied: "Mother-in-law is amazing, she will be back soon." ”
Land Rover also followed on the table, suddenly felt a sore back, and said in a daze: "I really hope that my mother-in-law can accept me as an apprentice." Then I can protect Sister Fan'er......"
The two children, who only went into the city once in a while, encountered so many emergencies in a row, and were naturally physically and mentally exhausted. The light of the oil lamp dimmed, and the two of them quickly fell asleep.
When the colorful paper windmill appeared in Chen Fan'er's dream, she was woken up by a cool breeze in the night. When she woke up, Lu Rover was already lying on the bed, and Granny Qin was sitting next to her, holding a delicate small wooden box in her hand.
"Mother-in-law, you're back. I guess I didn't get hurt. Chen Fan'er rubbed her eyes and asked obediently.
"I'm fine. Girl, I'll take you to sleep. Granny Qin showed a kind look, put down the wooden box and said.
Chen Fan'er also noticed this wooden box, took a closer look at it, and said, "Mother-in-law, this box is so beautiful, what is inside?" ”
Granny Qin gently opened the wooden box, and it was empty, leaving only ten grooves ranging from short to long, equal width and narrowness.
"There is a set of embroidery needles that my mother-in-law used to use. It's just that I accidentally lost it once, and I didn't have a chance to get it back. Granny Qin said with a little emotion.
"Then next time we go to the city, we will buy another set of embroidery needles and put them in this box." Chen Fan'er simply thinks that this box is good-looking, and it seems a pity if she doesn't put something.
Granny Qin was thoughtful, touched the box with her fingertips, and sighed: "This needle and wooden box are a set, and a very good friend of my mother-in-law specially made it for me." On the market, there is no embroidery needle worthy of this wooden box. ”
Chen Fan'er listened obediently on the side, and her mother-in-law often told some of her own stories, which was very good.
Granny Qin looked at Chen Fan'er with sleepy eyes, so she put away the box and carried the girl to the bed.
The night outside the house was a little dark, and after Granny Qin helped the two children cover the quilt, she frowned and sat back at the dining table.
She poured spiritual power into her fingers and wanted to draw some strange lines on the table, which was almost what Granny Qin had to do every night.
The moonlight in the mountains was shrouded in clouds, and Granny Qin grabbed the edge of the table with both hands, and her face suddenly became much older.
Because, the lines on the dining table have become a white skull logo.
