There is no free lunch in the world, and Ye Cang naturally understands this truth.

No one wants to accept an apprentice who is not very talented, and Wang Ran is not one of hers, how can she accept an oil bottle for no reason?

But if she was asked to give something, Ye Cang would really want to give.

But the thing is, she really doesn't have anything good.

As for her meager income, Ye Cang didn't think Wang Ran would take it seriously.

……

"I'm sorry, senior, I really don't have anything good. However, I will treat you like my own father. ”

"Whatever you command, I will do my best to accomplish it."

After bowing his head and being silent for a moment, Ye Cang raised his head and looked at Wang Ran seriously with his eyes. The tone was full, full of firmness.

Hearing this, Wang Ran shook his head. He took in disciples, not servants.

What's more, there is a big contradiction in her words. However, Ye Cang's attitude made Wang Ran very satisfied.

"In that case, then I have a question."

"If I take you as an apprentice, teach you skills. So in the future, if I invade Shayin Village as an enemy, what will you choose? ”

Looking at Ye Cang, whose eyes were firm, Wang Ran suddenly asked this dilemma.

"Senior! ……”

Ye Cang shouted stiffly, he never expected that Wang Ran would ask this question.

Indeed, although Wang Ran is not Sha Yin's enemy now, what about the future?

No one can guarantee that Wang Ran will not target Shayin Village in the future.

So when the time comes, if Ye Cang, who is apprenticed to Wang Ran, is sandwiched between the two, how will he choose?

This question was not only asked in Ye Cang's heart. Even the Zhishui and Yumu people behind Wang Ran fell into deep thought.

……

At this time, Ye Cang was in a tangle.

He didn't know how to answer, if he told the truth, it was estimated that Wang Ran would reject her directly.

After all, no one wants the disciples they teach to become an obstacle to them in the future.

But to tell lies, let's not talk about whether you can deceive Wang Ran. Even in Ye Cang's own heart, it is difficult to accept.

After being silent for a long time, Ye Cangchang exhaled.

"Senior, if that happens, I will choose to protect the village."

"But, when it's all over, I'll apologize to you for whatever the outcome."

Ye Cang's expression was very relaxed at this time, after struggling for so long, she still decided to tell the truth.

Let her lie and deceive herself, she can't do it yet. As for the outcome, let it be fate.

Now in her heart, she still prefers Shayin Village.

If she was asked to stand by and watch the village, or even take action, she wouldn't be able to do it.

However, taking action against his own master hinders his master's path. Even if it is just passive resistance, it is also a big rebellion for Ye Cang.

Therefore, in this dilemma, although she chose to stand on the opposite side of Wang Ran.

However, this does not mean that she is a person who does not respect her teachers.

That's why she said this kind of apology.

……

Wang Ran glanced at Ye Cang deeply, and he could see that what Ye Cang said was from his heart.

"Aren't you afraid of death? Would you rather apologize for suicide and protect the village? ”

Wang Ran squinted at Ye Cang, waiting for her answer.

Hearing Wang Ran's question, Ye Cang chuckled. At this moment, she had made a choice thoroughly.

Even if you don't have a relationship with Wang Ran, it doesn't matter.

"Of course I'm afraid, that person isn't afraid of death? However, my dream is to become a hero of the village. ”

"How can a hero make a move on his own village, not to mention, this village is where I was born and raised."

"Let me take action against the village, I really can't do it."

Looking at Ye Cang's smiling face, Wang Ran understood that in her heart, she really thought so.

Originally, she could have been said to be on her side. But Wang Ran didn't expect that she would be so heartfelt to Sha Yin now.

Even if she gave up an opportunity, she didn't make a decision that went against her heart.

It seems that the short-sightedness and inaction of the high-level of Shayin in the future really broke the girl's heart.

made her give up her ideals and completely stand on the opposite side of Shayin.

And Zhishui and Yugiren also looked at Ye Cang, a sister who was much older than them, with admiration.

Wang Ran's question just now also made them entangled.

Unexpectedly, Ye Cang made up his mind to make a choice so quickly.

This makes the two who are still struggling with it quite admirable.

Let them do it to the village, they will definitely not be able to do it.

But if they were to make enemies of Wang Ran, they would not be able to do it.

It can only be said that for them who have been by Wang Ran's side for a long time, this is destined to be an unsolvable problem.

……

However, he was still very satisfied with Ye Cang's answer.

After all, she didn't deceive herself, and she was indeed a person who respected her teachers.

"Very good, I will accept this apprentice of yours."

The corners of Wang Ran's mouth chuckled, and a faint voice floated out of his mouth.

"Sorry senior, disappointed you...... Well!? Senior, did you agree? ”

Ye Cang subconsciously replied that she had given up the idea of apprenticeship in her heart.

After all, under normal circumstances, such an answer is difficult to be satisfactory.

However, halfway through the words, Ye Cang suddenly came back to his senses.

What Wang Ran said just now doesn't seem to be a refusal.

Therefore, Ye Cang, who was halfway through the words, changed his painting style abruptly, directly from a quiet lady who saw through the world, to an excited and lively girl.

Looking at the excited Ye Cang, Wang Ran smiled and nodded.

"Of course, why don't you want to?"

Wang Ran asked with a smile, which made Ye Cang a little anxious, and quickly explained:

"No, no, of course I do, I'm just too surprised."

When Wang Ran heard this, he shrugged his shoulders with a chuckle.

"In that case, then you still don't apprentice?"

Ye Cang was stunned for a moment, looked at Wang Ran, and then looked at the few people behind Wang Ran, and asked suspiciously, "Here?" ”

"Sister Ye Cang, there are very few rules in the master's house. You can just kowtow three times to worship the teacher, we are all like this. ”

Seeing Ye Cang's puzzled look, Zhishui explained to Ye Cang with a smile and sent his kindness.

"Yes, Sister Ye Cang, Master is actually very kind."

Yugito also hurriedly said, expressing his friendliness to Hakura.

Wang Ran saw that the positive and friendly Zhishui and Yumu had already made an explanation, so he didn't say much.

And when Ye Cang heard the words of the two, he also understood that Zhishui and Yumu were both Wang Ran's disciples.

Since they all said so, Wang Ran didn't mean to explain, and Ye Cang also understood what to do.

Kneeling on the ground with a thud, Ye Cang kowtowed three times excitedly to Wang Ran.

"Thank you Master for accepting the apprentice!"
