The Yuan clan didn't want Shen Mo to get a chance, this time she was caught, so naturally she wouldn't let her go easily.

Sighing, Yuan glanced at his daughter beside him and said seriously: "This matter, you must think carefully before you do it."

"Mother, I understand, my daughter will act carefully."

The smile that couldn't be hidden in Shen Yan's eyes was in vain that she had been secretly investigating for so long, and finally let herself be caught, to see how she escaped this catastrophe silently.

Shen Yan, who was in a good mood, hummed a little song with a leisurely expression, now she just needs to find a suitable opportunity to poke this basket out, and deal with Shen Mo without any effort.

Shen Yan turned her back to the window and looked at the rain outside the window, it was still lightning and thunder, and you could see the haze on her face between the lightning flashes.

She didn't look back and said in an emotionless voice.

"Lan'er, you come forward"

The coldness in the cold words of the young lady in front of her seemed to penetrate her clothes and pierced straight into her skin.

"Miss, what do you command?"

Lan'er stepped forward quickly and asked respectfully, looking at her young lady's wrong look, so she was also a little scared.

"You can find that black mask, it's equivalent to a great achievement, say, what reward do you want?"

When these words were spoken, a happy expression immediately appeared on Lan'er's face, but it slowly faded.

However, Lan'er secretly thought that since she was a child, she listened to the book and said that it was natural for her master to do these things for her master, but why did the master choose to reward himself at this time.

Lan'er's eyes rolled and she was slightly stunned, and she had secretly thought in her heart, was she afraid that she would leak this matter, so she wanted to drive herself?

Shen Yan fiddled with her jade ring, Lan'er was her own maid, and she should do things for her, but this incident made her happy, so it didn't matter if she was rewarded.

"Back to Miss, Lan'er doesn't want to reward her, just ask Miss to always take Lan'er, and Lan'er will always follow Miss."

Hearing Lan'er's words, Shen Yan in front of him frowned slightly, he had been by his mother's side for many years, and his ability to observe words and colors was naturally extraordinary.

At present, Lan'er, who is usually lively, is suddenly so cautious, which also makes Shen Yan secretly guess some of Lan'er's thoughts, and can't help but feel a little funny

Shen Yan secretly thought in his heart, is he really so terrible?

Lan'er said earnestly but in exchange for Shen Yan's chuckle.

Shen Yan turned his head and changed his smile to Lan'er and said with a smile

"You girl is too sharp-tongued, just give you a reward, just continue, don't think too much"

Looking at the kind appearance of the young lady in front of her, Lan'er couldn't put her mind at ease, and stood aside cautiously without speaking.

After a long time, he said, "Lan'er just wants to follow her master and doesn't ask for any reward."

Shen Yan didn't dispel the real thoughts in Lan'er in front of him for a long time, and he was slightly annoyed.

"It's really verbose, give you a reward, how can there be so many words, you plan to follow me for the rest of your life, I don't plan to take you for the rest of my life."

Shen Yan never felt that Lan'er was of any use to her, she was just an ordinary maid, she wanted as much as she wanted, and what was the use of following her.

Lan'er listened to Shen Yan's words, as if she had been cut by a knife, she didn't expect that she was so unimportant in the eyes of Miss, she thought that as long as she did things for Miss sincerely, she would definitely get Miss Love, but she didn't expect that she was just a dispensable maid for Miss.

Lan'er somehow felt soft in her heart and seemed to be soft in her feet, so she snapped and knelt down.

"I don't know how to lift, I really don't know how many pounds and taels I have."

Shen Yan glanced at Lan'er, who was kneeling on the ground, twisted her water snake waist and left, she wouldn't bother with a maid, since she didn't think about rewarding, then don't ask for it.

Lan'er looked at the young lady who was gone away in a daze, and her sincerity was trampled on.

Only then did Lan'er remember what the old supervisor said to herself: "Maybe a subordinate will be a subordinate for the rest of his life." ”

The tears fell unconsciously, and Lan'er wiped them away neatly, blaming herself for being too uncompetitive, and also complaining that she was delusional, Shen Yan was the second miss of Shen Mansion, and Mrs. Yuan and the old man loved her so much, what did they want to get her love.

And the Yuan family, who witnessed all this on the side, also sighed secretly, and said in his heart: "This word is really hard-mouthed, obviously there is such a good henchman around him, but he doesn't know how to use it, isn't it a waste?" ”

The Yuan clan also glanced at Lan'er, who was kneeling on the ground, and said with a smile, "Are you willing to follow me in the future...... Let's go back and think about it. ”

"Lan'er knows, then Lan'er will retire first."

A circle of bitterness appeared at the corner of her mouth, and a faint wry smile appeared at the corner of Lan'er's mouth: "Maybe this is your own life, just like a toy, you don't even have the right to choose your own master." ”

Lan'er slowly stood up, straightened the hem of her skirt, patted the soil on her body, and left with a calm face.

Shen Mo returned from the border to the tavern where he temporarily lived It was already sunset, and the old ghost was waiting at the door, watching Shen Mo come over, and greeted him with a happy face.

"Good apprentice, where did you run by yourself, why haven't you been seen for a long time?"

The old ghost watched Shen Mo come back intact, and when she came out, she was a little tired in her eyes, and she couldn't see anything abnormal.

Looking at the old ghost who was already waiting for him at the door, Shen Mo's face was also slightly stunned, and a deep touch of emotion floated in his heart.

"I have nothing to do to go to the north for a turn, it is very close to the Northern Desert Country, and the Four Seas Institute is being built there, I heard that when it is completed, all the foreign people of the Shuxia Kingdom will be brought there."

Shen Mo explained without a match, hoping that the old ghost would not see any clues, she didn't want to tell the old ghost and Chen Xiling about saving Ye Tingchen this afternoon.

The old ghost looked at Shen Mo and came back a little strangely, he usually doesn't explain so much, but today he said a lot.

There must be a reason for something to be abnormal, and the old ghost looks at her face as if she is always feeling that she is hiding something.

But a person's mind is not written on her face, so no matter how the old ghost guesses and looks, he can't think of what Shen Mo is hiding.

It seems that something must have happened to her, and since she doesn't want to say it, she won't force it.

After all, silence is not a child, and the severity of the matter is still clear.

If there was really trouble, she would definitely talk to herself, so the old ghost also shook his head, sighed, and stopped asking.

The old ghost smiled at Shen Mo, as long as she could come back safely, it was not easy for her to find such a precious apprentice at such an old age, but she couldn't let her have a little trouble.

Finding a satisfactory apprentice is not an easy task.

When I was young, I always wanted to make progress in my cultivation, but when I was old, I had to worry about how to inherit my martial arts.

Instead of waiting for a hundred years later, he will bring his whole body into his coffin and bury him in the loess, and no one will care about it from then on!

"When are we going back to the capital? The poetry meeting is about to start in one day. ”

Just as the old ghost was thinking about it, Shen Mo waved his hand in front of him and said with a smile

Shen Mo still remembered that Shen Yan came over to tell him, thinking that she was mocking, so if he didn't want to go, he would go over to join in the fun.

After thinking about Shen Yan's mocking look, Shen Mo felt a little annoyed, frowned, and whispered, "I came here specifically to mock me, it's really naïve......"

The old ghost repeatedly glanced at the silence on the side of his chin and the beard on his chin repeatedly, so he could naturally see her thoughts from her face, so he also said lightly

"Baby apprentice, listen to you. Anyway, it's nothing, so let's hurry back early tomorrow morning, and you also have time to prepare for the poetry meeting. ”

Shen Mo nodded with a smile when he saw the old ghost agree, and the old ghost sighed helplessly when he looked at Shen Mo in front of him.

The old ghost is a little uncomfortable, because for so many years, there is only one apprentice Chen Xiling, and now that a female apprentice has been added, naturally many things have to be changed.

Poetry is a tradition in the Shuxia Kingdom, and the old ghost has naturally heard of it, but because he is old and has no literary talent, he will not participate.

Although he has no achievements in literature, his cultivation is also unparalleled in the world, and few people can compare.

This year, because of the existence of silence, the old ghost decided to go over to take a look, after all, it is a special period, and the three of them may have become a thorn in the side of others in order to track down the persecution of the woman, so it is important to always pay attention to precautions.

"Okay, then let's go back and tell Chen Xiling!"

Shen Mo, who received support, happily revealed two small pear vortices and ran towards the tavern one by one.

The old ghost looked at Shen Mo and shook his head helplessly like a child who had not grown up.

"This little girl ......"

Whoever let himself love this baby apprentice so much can only go with her.

Since he was old, he had no desires and no desires, and his only hope was pinned on his precious apprentice.

The old ghost doesn't know when he gradually smoothed out his edges and corners, and he no longer has the sharpness of his youth.

When Shen Mo returned to the tavern, he didn't find Chen Xiling's shadow after looking for a long time, could it be that he left by himself?

glanced around, if Chen Xiling really left alone, he should have left some letters and the like.

Suddenly seeing the letter left on the table, Shen Mo hurriedly ran over to pick it up.

"If there is something in Changshan, say goodbye first, don't read it."

Looking at the chic line on the letter, Shen Mo directly thought of Chen Xiling wearing a green shirt and black hair.

"Cut, whoever says will read him."

Shen Mo rolled his eyes with the letter, this Chen Xiling is too narcissistic.

But after all, people can't control their thoughts well, and even she can't say whether she will miss them.

"Why are you alone?"

The old ghost then followed, and found that Shen Mo was the only one in Chen Xiling's room.

"Well, he went back to Changshan, said that there was something, and told us not to think about him."

Silence gave the letter to the old ghost and pouted.

"This stinky boy is in such a hurry, and he won't say hello to me." The old ghost shook his head and smiled bitterly

The old ghost frowned and relaxed after reading it, his apprentice had always told him about anything, this time he was in such a hurry, it seemed that something happened to Changshan suddenly.

After speaking, Shen Mo also felt a little strange and said, "On weekdays, this stinky boy will at least say hello wherever he goes, and this time he will leave in such a hurry, so he shouldn't ......."

"It's okay, this stinky boy just loves this, there are still many pioneers in Changshan, nothing will happen."

Chen Xiling's martial arts are not considered to be at the peak, but there are few opponents in the world, at least ordinary second-rate masters will never hurt him.

The old ghost comforted Shen Mo like this, and at the same time comforted himself, but he couldn't stop worrying faintly in his heart.

Shaking his head, the old ghost just wanted to leave this matter behind, but this matter lingered in his mind as if it had taken root.

This is how people want to forget something, the clearer it will come to your mind.

"Tomorrow we will return to the western suburbs, you can go to Changshan to help Chen Xiling, and I will have no problem going back to the capital by myself."

When the old ghost heard this, he glanced at Shen Mo worriedly, but he still couldn't let go of his heart, his eyes rolled, and he was blocked by Shen Mo just as he was about to speak.

Shen Mo stretched out a finger and made a silent motion, repeating again, "No problem." ”

Shen Mo didn't want to trouble the old ghost, and he also saw that he was a little worried about Chen Xiling, and he didn't know what happened to Changshan.

The old ghost also nodded, looking at the silence in front of him, he was also extremely relieved, his apprentice could be so sensible, it really saved him a lot of effort.

"Okay, let's leave tomorrow morning, let's pack up tonight and have a good night's rest."

The old ghost arranged tomorrow's affairs and left to go back to his room.

Sleepless all night, everyone has their own thoughts, tossing and turning in bed, can't sleep, only the full moon by the window, does not eat the fireworks of the world, ignores the world, no matter which dynasty or generation, it hangs high above the treetops.

Shen Mo returned to her room and never fell asleep, and there were many strange things about this afternoon, which disturbed her from sleeping peacefully.

He rolled over heavily and opened his eyes silently.

Why Ye Tingchen was hunted down, Shen Mo has always been unable to figure it out.

The silent dark eyes floated faintly in front of the bed, looking at the moonlight sprinkled on the ground.

The shadow of the cypress tree shining through the window was clearly imprinted on the silent face.

Her eyes seemed to contain a sky full of stars, only more dazzling than the moonlight, but these eyes were full of doubts at the moment.

Even if he is short-tempered and doesn't know who he provoked, but after all, this is Shuxia Kingdom, and no one knows the status and power of King Wu Ye Tingchen, who would dare to rob him so openly?

Thinking about it silently, it seemed that he wanted to extract the most crucial clue from this trace of things.

Silently shook his head and denied his thoughts, Ye Tingchen's reputation in Shuxia Country and even foreign countries was loud, and no one dared to hunt him down.

"Maybe there really is such a person who eats the gall of an ambitious leopard." Shen Mo shook his head again and said to himself, "No, there is no such person, there will definitely be none." ”

Perhaps, the group of men in black just accidentally ran into Ye Tingchen's...

"Yes, it must be so." Shen Mo nodded as hard as he wanted to comfort himself, and then sighed again and said, "I'm so stupid, obviously I have heard the leader say that he wants to capture him alive, how can he accidentally touch him?" ”

Shen Mo shook his head again, and he clearly heard the leader of the group of black-clothed men say that he captured Ye Tingchen alive.

Thinking about it like this, the group of people naturally knew Ye Tingchen's identity, but they chose to do something to him.

Shen Mo snorted coldly, and suddenly stood up from the bed, thinking angrily.

Who is so bold as to dare to provoke Ye Tingchen.

After thinking about it for a long time, I was a little tired, and the old ghost had warned himself not to use his brain too much, otherwise I was afraid that I would have a headache again.

"Shhhhh

Shen Mo took a deep breath, and sure enough, his head began to hurt again.

A heart-rending pain spread out of my mind like a wave.

Shen Mo could only grit his teeth and hurriedly stop his thoughts, muttering faintly in his mouth, "Don't ...... Other...... Don't, don't think about it, don't get sick, don't get hurt. ”

Not daring to think about the painful feeling, Shen silently hugged his head tightly.

The silent prayer didn't work, and the groggy pain in my head intensified.

Feeling the familiar feeling of explosion, he silently closed his eyes and bit the corners of the quilt, comforting himself that he just had to survive this while.

"Concentrate!" It seemed that the words of the old ghost suddenly exploded in his mind, and the pain immediately melted away like ice and snow meeting flames, and the pain was no longer painful.

On the contrary, the pain felt as if it was suppressed, and a rush of qi went straight up from Ren and Du to the top of the head, tightly surrounding the entire head from the front and back of the head.

Feeling incredible, he opened his eyes silently, and this time the headache actually disappeared, what the hell is going on.

Stretched out his hand and carefully touched his little head, it was no different, intact.

Shen Mo first thought of spiritual power, maybe the bottom-up power he felt just now was spiritual power, and this time it was spiritual power that helped him resist the headache.

It's just that this spiritual power is extremely strange, and I don't know what the connection is with the voice of the old ghost I heard just now?

Maybe it's the old ghost who has shed such a spiritual power in his body at some point.

Without hesitation, Shen Mo hurriedly sat cross-legged, wanting to take advantage of the appearance of spiritual power to feel it, maybe he could master the method of controlling spiritual power.

Holding his breath, he silently explored the source of the power in his body.

Suddenly, a sense of fall made Shen Mo almost fall, and when he opened his eyes, he found that he had appeared in that white space again, and there was another space of his own.

The silence of the fall is very familiar, as if it were a childhood memory hidden in the mind for a long time

"Silence, we'll meet again."

The woman in white walked out, still sneering as before.

It's just that this time she is not the same as last time, she didn't wear the black tights like last time, but changed into a white and blue flowing skirt.

The face was naturally silent, but the seductive smile on her face showed at a glance that she was not silent.

"I know you, I'm just going crazy now, you don't want to do anything to me!"

Shen Mo wanted to speak calmly, but a sudden burst of heart-piercing pain made Shen Mo unable to control his emotions.

Shen Mo roared at the woman in white, reminding himself to be calm and sensible, not to be confused by the scene in front of him.

"Why are you afraid of me, you are me, I am you, we are one."

The woman in white jumped down from the bluestone in the distance, and in a flash, she appeared behind Shen Mo in a flash.

The woman in white chuckled, looking at Shen Mo's frightened look, her eyes filled with contempt and disdain.

"You're controlling spiritual power, aren't you?"

Silently thinking about the fact that her headache disappeared just now, maybe she would know the answer.

"I saved you just now, the headache is not pleasant, thanks to me you escaped."

The woman in white pointed her finger and frowned silently.

The woman in white paused, suddenly turned her head, looked at Shen Mo with a hint of mockery in her eyes, and said with a smile: "But I saved you just now, but you didn't say a good word, and you were fierce to me as soon as you came up." ”

"Maybe I shouldn't have saved you just now." As soon as her words fell, a pinprick pain appeared in Shen Mo's mind.

Silently covered his forehead in pain, this pain was too real to be an illusion at all, and then looked up at the woman in white, she was far away in the sky.
