Chapter 33: Descending the Mountain
Early the next morning, Bai Xiaoqi opened his eyes and was horrified to find that he was lying on the master's bed again! So she hurriedly got up in a panic, only to find that Yun Ze was sitting on the edge of the bed looking at her with a displeased face.
"Where are you going in such a hurry?"
"Uh...... Master, when I wake up, I won't disturb Master's rest! Bai Xiaoqi lowered his head and didn't dare to look at Yun Ze.
"Aren't you very powerful, where is the momentum of threatening to challenge more than 200 Tsing Yi disciples in the martial arts arena yesterday?" Yun Ze looked at Bai Xiaoqi playfully, and a trace of anger flashed in his eyes.
"Master, I'm not here to bring glory to you!" Bai Xiaoqi argued in a low voice.
"Glory? When did you need your life to win glory for me? Yun Ze's eyes were full of anger.
"Master, it's not that serious, isn't it okay for me?" Bai Xiaoqi said indifferently.
"Then Yang Ming is very insidious and spicy, he actually used a killer blow during the competition, if you don't dodge, do you know the consequences?" Yun Ze couldn't help but be very angry when he looked at Bai Xiaoqi's grinning appearance.
"My strength master, you don't know, how can you not dodge!" Bai Xiaoqi smiled wryly.
"You ......" Yun Ze just wanted to say something, but he heard Qin Yu say outside the door: "Master, there are many senior brothers and sisters from Cuilin Yuan, and they want to learn from the three of us, you see ......."
Yun Ze Zhenren frowned, and said in a deep voice: "Let them go, don't disturb my purity." ”
"Yes, the disciple knows." Qin Yu said respectfully and left.
"In the future, except for Qin Yu and Xiaoba, you have to stay away from other boys, but when you are with Qin Yu and Xiaoba, you must also keep your distance as much as possible, and you are not allowed to have excessive contact, do you hear?" Yun Ze looked at Bai Xiaoqi coldly and instructed.
"Got it, Master!" Although Bai Xiaoqi was a hundred reluctant in his heart, he had no choice but to agree.
"Alright, let's have breakfast, it's going to be cold." Yun Ze got up and walked to the desk, ignored Bai Xiaoqi, and sat there to eat by himself.
Bai Xiaoqi also walked over and ate with Yun Ze, thinking to himself: Master has really become more and more strange over the years!
After breakfast, Yun Ze called the three apprentices together, "I have been reading all the classics for three years as a teacher, looking for famous doctors, but I have not found a way to remove the poison from the three of you. ”
Yun Ze paused, looked at the three apprentices, and felt sad in his heart.
"Master Wei thinks that you can find a way to find the person who poisoned you in the first place, maybe he will have an antidote there."
Bai Xiaoqi understood Yun Ze's intentions, and his face turned pale in an instant, "Master wants us to find a way to go back to the Shadow Building?" ”
"That's right." Yun Ze nodded solemnly, but he seemed to see Bai Xiaoqi's concerns and said to them: "Don't worry, the teacher will go down the mountain with you, the rivers and lakes have been in turmoil recently, and the rumors about the remnants of the Demon Lord are spreading, and you can't rest assured that you will go down the mountain alone as a teacher." ”
As soon as he heard that Yun Ze would go with them, Bai Xiaoqi felt a burst of joy in his heart, and smiled, "Master, then I'll go pack up for you!" ”
Yun Ze glanced at her with a smile and didn't object, and then said to Qin Yu and Xiaoba, "You guys go and clean up too!" I'll go say hello to the senior brother first, and we'll leave when I get back. ”
Qin Yu and the three of them nodded, and each went back to pack his bags.
Qin Yu quickly cleaned up, but at this time, Bao Xiaoxiao came to call Qin Yu, saying that Yun Ming had something to look for him, so Qin Yu followed Bao Xiaoxiao out.
Xiao Qi Xiaoba was a little helpless, so he had to sit in the courtyard and wait. After a while, Yun Ze returned, but his face was a little gloomy.
Seeing this, Xiao Qi hurriedly went up and asked, "Master, what's wrong?" ”
"My senior brother received news this morning that the Immortal Gate was planted with eyeliner in the Shadow Building." Saying that, Yun Ze glanced at the two of them, and then continued: "Senior brother wants me to stay and help investigate, I think you can't stay in the mountains anymore, you have to leave here quickly!" How's the stuff packed? What about Qin Yu? ”
"Everything is packed up, Qin Yu was called away by Uncle Yunming." When Bai Xiaoqi heard this, he was shocked, knowing that they would only cause trouble to Yun Ze if they stayed on the mountain, but would it be repercussive to leave at this time?
Yun Ze seemed to see through Bai Xiaoqi's thoughts, and said to them: "I have a close friend, it is Yuan Xiu, the national teacher of the Night River Country, he is about to celebrate his birthday recently, I have no time to go, you bring the congratulatory gift for me." ”
Xiao Qiyi heard that the reason was found for them, and he really had to go. Just when Yun Ze went back to get the congratulatory gift, Qin Yu came back.
I saw that his face was a little gloomy and his steps were heavy.
"Qin Yu, what's wrong with you?" Seeing this, Xiao Qi hurriedly stepped forward to ask.
"Senior Uncle Yunming asked me to go to Junxiu Peak and help him take care of Senior Sister Yueli. I can't go down with you anymore. Qin Yu said with some loss.
"Jun Xiufeng, why do so many people have to ask you to go? We can't stay in the mountains anymore, I just heard from the master......" Bai Xiaoqi was a little anxious when he heard it.
"I know, there have been rumors that there is a shadow building eyeliner in the Immortal Gate, but Uncle Yunming thinks that I am more reliable than others, and I have a better conversation with Senior Sister Yueli, I really can't refuse, you can rest assured, I will be careful on the mountain, and I will not cause trouble to Master!" If anything, I'll decide on my own! Qin Yu said resolutely.
When Bai Xiaoqi saw him say this, he didn't say anything more.
After waiting for a while, Yun Ze walked out of the house with a congratulatory gift, handed it to Xiao Qi, and then said to Qin Yu: "Senior Brother Yunming told me about your business, you stay on the mountain, and you come to the study to find me after Xiao Qi and they leave." ”
At this time, I saw Yun Ze take out a round jade pendant from his arms and put it on Xiao Qi's neck. The jade pendant is white and transparent, and it is very beautiful. On one side is the word "Ze".
"This jade pendant is my belongings, if you meet someone from the hundred families of Xianmen outside, you will show them the jade pendant, and if you see this jade as I come in person, they will not embarrass you more, I Yunze still has some status in the hundred families of Xianmen. Let's go, and send you down the mountain for the teacher. Yun Ze looked at Bai Xiaoqi solemnly, and sighed in his heart: What should come is always coming.
The four masters and apprentices walked down the mountain slowly, no one spoke along the way, the atmosphere was depressing and terrifying, and everyone's hearts were very heavy.
Finally arrived at the mountain gate, this was Bai Xiaoqi's first time going down the mountain, and it was also the moment she had been looking forward to for a long time, but unfortunately she was not happy at all now.
"Xiaoba, take care of Xiaoqi outside, if she has a mistake, I will only ask, do you hear?" Yun Ze instructed with a calm face, and Xiao Ba nodded heavily when he heard this.
"Xiao Qi, you are weak outside, don't be in the limelight in everything, attract people's attention, understand?" Yun Ze looked at Xiao Qi and said worriedly.
"Knowing Master, we will be careful in everything." Xiao Qi nodded, looking at Yun Ze with teary eyes.
"If there is an emergency, you can use this jade pendant to call me, no matter how far away, no matter what I am doing, I will rush over as soon as possible!" Yun Ze pointed to the jade pendant on Xiao Qi's neck and said to her, looking at Bai Xiaoqi's tearful eyes, Yun Ze instantly felt very distressed.
"Xiao Qi wrote it down." Bai Xiaoqi said in a trembling voice, holding back the tears in his eyes, looking at Yun Ze and smiling reluctantly.
Yun Ze was reluctant and reluctant at this time, but he could only turn into a sentence: "Xiao Qi, go home early." ”
After Bai Xiaoqi heard this, he couldn't hold back anymore, hugged Yun Ze and cried, "Master, Xiao Qi can't bear you!" ”
"Go, wait for you to come back!" Yun Ze held back the tears in his eyes and pushed away Xiao Qi in his arms, he was really afraid that if he was a second late, he would leave her behind.
"The disciple is gone, Master take care." Xiao Qi and Xiao Ba knelt on the ground, kowtowed to Yun Ze three times, and then got up and left.
Looking at the back of the two leaving, Yun Ze had mixed feelings in his heart, turned around, and a tear slid down his cheek, fell to the ground, and shattered into countless parts, just like his heart.
Xiao Qi wiped her tears and went down the mountain, Xiao Ba on the side looked at her distressedly, wanting to comfort her, but she couldn't say a word, and she couldn't help but feel a little frustrated.
After walking for a while, Xu was crying enough, Xiao Qi wiped the tears on his face, smiled, and said to Xiao Ba: "Let's go!" ”
Hachi smiled and nodded, as long as Xiaoqi was happy, he would be happy too.
After walking for a while, the two finally came to the bustling town, where the sky was getting dark, the lights were on, and the streets were full of pedestrians.
Xiao Qi and Xiao Ba found an inn, settled down, and went back to their rooms after a simple meal.
Xu is used to the bed in Cuilin Yuan, lying on the bed in this inn, Bai Xiaoqi tossed and turned, no matter how uncomfortable, he couldn't sleep after tossing for a long time.
"I miss Master so much, I wonder if he has slept now, and if he has a good dinner?" Xiao Qi, who couldn't sleep, muttered with his eyes open.
At this time, the jade pendant on Xiao Qi's chest suddenly emitted a soft light. Xiao Qi was so frightened that she sat up instantly, looked at the jade pendant for a while, and then injected a little aura into it, only to hear Yun Ze's voice ringing in her ears at this time: "Why don't you rest so late?" ”
As soon as Xiao Qi heard Yun Ze's voice, he was instantly very happy, and said to Yu Pei: "Master, Xiao Qi doesn't like the bed in this inn, it's not as comfortable as Cuilin Yuan!" ”
"Did you sleep separately from Hachi?" Yun Ze asked with a light sigh.
"yes, the bed in this inn is too small to sleep the two of us!" Bai Xiaoqi and Yun Ze complained, but Yun Ze over there changed his face when he heard it.
"The beds are big enough to sleep together! Isn't it enough to pestering you for the teacher? Yun Ze said in a cold voice, thinking about when this child would realize that she was a girl, it was really worry-free!
"Got it, Master." Bai Xiaoqi knew that he had said the wrong thing, so he secretly pursed his mouth, and then asked with a smile: "Master, do you miss Xiao Qi, Xiao Qi is very worried about Master!" ”
"I want you to do anything, without you being naughty and mischievous on the mountain, you would end up clean as a teacher." Yun Ze looked at Bai Xiaoqi who was sitting on the bed with the help of the jade pendant, and said duplicitously.
Xiao Qi felt a sense of loss in her heart when she heard this, did the master really hate her.
