Zu Zhenlin came to the secluded bamboo forest again, waiting for Li Cao to arrive, but he didn't see anyone for a long time. I wondered in my heart, could it be that I asked the teacher again and delayed it?

Waiting patiently, finally there was a sound of footsteps in the bamboo forest, but he looked anxious, "Second brother, where are you?"

Zu Zhenlin thought that Li Cao asked him to inform him not to wait, so he walked over slowly, "Here." ”

Lin Xi ran to the front, gasped and said, "Second brother, something happened." The eldest brother fought with people and was injured. ”

"What?" Zu Zhenlin said in surprise, "What's going on?"

Said as he walked. ”

Zu Zhenlin and Lin Xi rushed back to their residence. Lin Xi explained the ins and outs of the future clearly, it turned out that those who wanted to challenge Zhenlin, seeing that Zhenlin was soft and hard, they didn't accept the challenge, so they went to pester Li Cao, wanting to let Zhenlin accept the challenge through Li Cao. Li Cao also knew that now was not the time to conflict with them, so he had to endure it, but they had to inch in, and finally insulted Zhenlin. Li Cao was angry, and actually challenged, but of course he was beaten.

Li Cao was lying on the bed, looking sluggish, and his arm was broken, which had been bandaged. Neifu was injured, and he also took medicine to stop the bleeding. On the chair next to the bed sat a fat man, looking nervously examining.

Zu Zhenlin looked at Li Cao, who looked miserable, and regretted in his heart, "Why do you say you want to be strong, but you can't beat them." ”

Zhao Hong said angrily: "How do you speak? Isn't this all for you? You should be a turtle with a shrunken head, and you have the face to talk about others." ”

"The teacher is fine," Li Cao grinned, "Who made you my brother? I will never allow others to insult you." ”

I touched the injury, I felt pain, and I laughed ugly.

Zu Zhenlin said with a smile: "But it also proves one thing, it is true that you can't avoid the attacks of people who are a big realm higher than you." ”

Li Cao smiled bitterly, "Indeed." ”

"Alright, since you're back, take care of him, I'll go back. Zhao Hong stood up and turned to leave.

"Thank you, teacher. Li Cao said.

"What do you say? You are my student, you are injured, it is because I did not teach you well, you should treat your injury, I will come back tomorrow. ”

"Lin Xi, you take care of the eldest brother, and I will send the teacher. Zu Zhenlin said.

Zhao Hong's face was ugly, and he sneered: "You brother is really good, you got into trouble yourself, hid, and let others take care of it for you." ”

Zu Zhenlin knew that he was upset about Li Cao, so he didn't take it to heart, "Teacher, don't worry, he is my brother, and I won't let him be wronged." ”

Zhao Hong's face softened, "You are still like a human saying, Li Cao cultivates the exercises, makes rapid progress, and has a good talent." If it weren't for the missed opportunity, I would have persuaded him to practice other attribute exercises, and now that's the only way to go, so I'm going to do my best to train him to become a talent. Now that he is injured, delaying his cultivation speed, and actually hitting him so hard, beating so badly, I, who is a teacher, am angry, and I can't get used to it, but there is no way. ”

"Teacher, I will definitely breathe for you. Zu Zhenlin said.

Zhao Hong scolded with a smile: "Damn, I said you were fat, and you were still panting." Be careful, don't get angry, put yourself on again, and let people beat you up. ”

"If that's the case, I'll have to blame myself for not being strong, but I think I can beat a few. ”

"Then I'm counting on you to give me a breath. Zhao Hong's eyes widened.

"Definitely. Zu Zhenlin assured.

Sending Teacher Zhao Hong away, Zu Zhenlin returned to Li Cao's room again.

Li Cao's eyes revealed worry, but he didn't speak.

Zu Zhenlin comforted: "It's okay, don't worry, I won't be impulsive, you can rest assured." ”

Li Cao nodded.

Lin Xi was also worried on the side, and he stopped talking.

"If you have anything to say, just say it, don't say it. Zu Zhenlin said.

"Actually, I'm worried about the second brother. ”

"Don't worry, I'm fine. In the past two days, please take care of your eldest brother first, I just happened to reach the critical moment of cultivation, and I will take care of it after two days, is it okay?" Zu Zhenlin asked.

"No problem, I'll take a leave of absence from the teacher and make up the lessons later. ”

Li Cao said weakly: "There is no need to ask for leave, although I am injured, my leg is fine, I can still walk, I can take care of myself." ”

Zu Zhenlin slapped him directly. Li Cao groaned in pain.

"Alright, don't be pushy. Let the third brother take care of you. ”

"Tonight I keep vigil. Lin Xi volunteered.

"Then I'm bothering you. ”

Zu Zhenlin returned to his room, expressionless, lying in his clothes.

Dark clouds obscured the moon, cold winds stirred the window paper, and perhaps the last autumn rain was coming.

---

In the early morning, there was no sunshine and the sky was gloomy, as if gathering strength and erupting into the last remnants of autumn.

The students finished their breakfast and rushed to class. Zu Zhenlin stopped Wei Wuhu and them, staring at the person in front of him.

Wei Wuhu felt a little guilty and avoided Zhen Lin's gaze.

"What are you going to do? The coward came to vent his friend's anger, haha. The man behind him mocked unscrupulously.

"Alright, shut up. Wei Wuhu shouted.

Zu Zhenlin sneered: "It's really a group of heroes, bullying a person who has just stepped into the threshold of cultivation, or a person who practices the Wood Exercises, can I see which hero defeated him?"

Wei Wuhu said guiltily: "I didn't know that they would find trouble with your friend, and when I went to stop it, your friend insisted on launching a challenge, I can't let my friend lose face." ”

"Big brother, why are you telling him so much? It's just a coward, your friend was injured by me, to be honest, I admire him, much better than you. A young man with sparse eyebrows said.

Zu Zhenlin nodded, "I'm indeed a little cautious, but now that my friend has been beaten, even if I can't beat it, I can't hide anymore, I can only bite the bullet, otherwise I'm too sorry for my friend." ”

Raise your voice, "I know you all can't get used to me and want to beat me up openly, I give you this opportunity today, I accept your challenge, take out your challenge book." ”

A group of people laughed, "Who do you think you are, and challenge us a bunch." "As long as you come in by relying on connections, I can defeat you alone. ”

"I don't accept any of you're going to challenge, if you want to beat me, you're going to have to give me all the challenge books you've given me this time, and you can't miss a single one. Zu Zhenlin emphasized.

"Are you crazy? You know, if you accept the challenge, you have to complete it. Wei Wuhu reminded.

"What does the eldest brother care about him? That's fine, he will find his own death, and he doesn't care about our business. I'm going to give it to you with a challenge. ”

"Mine is for you, too. ”

Everyone handed over the challenge one after another.

Zu Zhenlin looked at Wei Wuhu and stretched out his hand.

"I want to teach you a lesson, but I don't want you to die. Wei Wuhu said honestly.

"Okay, I'll give you a day, I'll be in the library, you go and spread the word, just say that my ancestor Zhenlin accepts any of you's challenge, don't dare to come. ”

Hearing Zhenlin's arrogant words, everyone was angry and annoyed, and they wanted to beat him up now.

After Zu Zhenlin finished speaking, he held everyone's challenge books, turned around and left, went to the library building, and received all the challenge books into the storage ring in a place where no one was.

On the first floor of the study building, Zu Zhenlin casually found a book to read, but he really couldn't calm down, and turned the pages of the book irritably, but he didn't know what to say, he only remembered that it was a love story of life and death.

Close the book, put it on the table, close your eyes, slowly empty your head, calm yourself, be irritable before the war, absolutely unfavorable, maybe there is a presence in this group that is not weaker than yourself.

After almost two incense sticks, I finally calmed down, opened the book again, and read carefully.

Time passed, and the bell rang melodiously.

Zu Zhenlin waited for a while, put the book back on the shelf, and slowly walked out of the library building. As expected, there were already people waiting, all of them full of spirit and pretentiousness. Zu Zhenlin was a little strange, why did these people think that they had won? He was also assigned to the idle class, which symbolized the status of cultivators, was it because he had not accepted their challenge before, which gave them confidence?

"If any of you have a challenge, just give it to me. Zu Zhenlin said.

They began to take out the challenge book and hand it to Zhenlin, and they had to say something provocative.

After receiving all the challenge books, Zu Zhenlin counted them, plus the previous ones, a total of fifty-six letters, which is really a lot, maybe his arrogant words in the morning stimulated them, and they all came to settle accounts with themselves.

Zu Zhenlin went to the cafeteria to get two boxes of food. Boxes of dishes and chopsticks are provided in the cafeteria, but if you want to borrow them, you need to register them and clean them when you return them. Of course, if you are annoyed, you can also buy it directly, but it will be more expensive. Zu Zhenlin happily paid for it.

In order not to let Li Cao and Lin Xi go hungry and worry, they did not delay and returned to their residence directly.

There was someone talking in Li Cao's room, and Zhen Lin walked in and found that Teacher Zhao Hong was exercising, and a green light appeared on his hand, and then covered Li Cao's injured arm.

Li Cao looked comfortable, felt a slight coolness in her arm, and as the teacher's aura penetrated through the skin and attached to the broken bones, she began to feel itchy in the wound, like an ant crawling again.

"It's fine, it's itchy because your bone wounds are healing. Hang in there. Zhao Hong said.

After two incense sticks, Teacher Zhao Hong stopped exercising, "Continue tomorrow." ”

"Thank you, teacher. Li Cao said gratefully.

"What's polite, that's what a teacher should do. ”

Zu Zhenlin set the meal, "The teacher didn't eat either, if you don't mind, eat with us." ”

Zhao Hong was also polite, "No wine?"

"I saw that Li Cao was injured, so I didn't buy wine, and I will definitely buy it next time. Zu Zhenlin said.

Lin Xi took the vegetables and put them in the bowl with rice, "I'll feed my eldest brother." ”

"Eat first, I'm not hungry yet. Li Cao persuaded.

"It's okay, let's eat. Lin Xi walked inside.

"Li Cao, your two friends are good, you are very discerning. Zhao Hong praised.

"Yes, making friends with them is the luckiest thing in my life. ”

"Now it's unfortunate. Zu Zhenlin said with a smile.
