The smile on his face gradually faded, and the old man moved to a bamboo plaque step by step, standing opposite the purple flute across the bamboo plaque, the taro stems and leaves were casually resisted by him on his shoulder, and looked at the purple flute who was burying his head in sorting out the medicinal materials with a thief face, and said: "Oh, apprentice, how is it?" It's been so long, haven't you figured it out, and I'm waiting for your words as a teacher? ”

Mr. Duan is in the house, which is equivalent to robbing the apprentice in front of others, is this appropriate? Zidi was ashamed of him, so she simply ignored him at all.

Seeing that Zidi didn't react, the old man didn't care too much, and raised his hand to put it in the bamboo plaque, but was stopped by Zidi: "Get out of the way!" Why are you like this, old man? Hugh is going to work on this herb. Zidi's cheeks were flushed with anger, what happened last time made her still have palpitations now, afraid that he would directly poison the medicinal herbs this time, and if he killed people at that time, the consequences would be serious.

The old man was slightly stunned by this soft drink, his hand paused on the bamboo plaque, and then he took it back in a sneering manner, and explained in a soft voice: "The apprentice misunderstood, the teacher just wants to help you, how can you do it." The apprentice can rest assured, this time he entered the city, and the teacher was free of poison. "He learned the lesson of the last time, after all, there are many people on the street, he still has important things to do, and he has no time to cause more trouble, so he removed all the poison from his body before entering the city.

"Senior sister, don't worry, even if he is given ten leopard galls now, he won't dare to do anything here, but if it was before, it would be difficult to say. You must know that now his life is still in our hands, how dare you mess around. Lu Ci leisurely fiddled with a dried herb in his hand, and glanced at the old man with yellow taro faintly.

The old man wanted to echo a sentence, but Lu Ci turned his words to him: "I'm also quite curious, old man, you said you, there should be a lot of people who have died in your hands over the years, right?" You don't seem to take other people's lives as well? Why is he so desperate for his life? Weird, weird! ”

Watching Lu Ci make a meditative look, constantly shaking his head and shaking his head, his words were full of mockery, the expression of the old man was weird, and the flattering smile that had just been shown in front of Zidi's eyes froze on his face. After a while, he covered his mouth and coughed lightly, and said, "You can't say that, people, who wouldn't think that their life and death are the most important?" It's just an instinctive awareness. You say yes, apprentice. ”

"Who is your apprentice? I've never admitted that my master is sitting in the room! Zidi raised her hand and pointed to the room behind her, she was really afraid that this brazen old man would talk nonsense, and it would not be good if she was really misunderstood by her master.

The old man slashed the outside of his nose with his thin index finger, and he didn't care about Zidi's rebuttal, he looked at the two white eyes that came out of Lu Di, his eyes turned slippery, and he continued to skewer in front of Zidi: "As a teacher, you have always been generous, since you don't want to give up studying medicine, I said that day, you can learn everything, I don't mind you having one more master at all." Besides, this is the same way as a woman serving a husband, and we as masters can also teach a disciple together! What a common thing. ”

Shameless old man, what is this saying? Can this be the same? I've never seen such a shameless person when I'm so big. And it always sounds weird and uncomfortable. Zidi held back a trace of anger in his heart, although his hands were still flicking the medicinal materials in the bamboo plaque, his expression was sneering at the old man, and finally he simply turned his face away.

Lu Ci on the side became interested, shaking one leg and waiting to watch this good show, wanting to hear what kind of words the thief old man could say. Sure enough, it didn't take long for him to wait for the old man to speak again: "Anyway, your apprentice, I have accepted it, if Xiao Duan minds, he can find another good seedling, besides, he is not the only one of his closed disciples, don't you have a senior brother who has never met, I heard that your senior brother's talent is much better than yours, so ah, Xiao Duan is not short of people who inherit the mantle." ”

Zidi really doesn't know how she can provoke such a person, she really can't get rid of it, it's annoying, and the key is that the words she says are extremely ugly. She raised her head and glared at the old man with yellow taro, and then looked at Lu Ci with a plea in her eyes.

Lu Ci immediately understood, nodded towards Zidi, looked leisurely, and sighed lightly: "I have never seen a person like you, how can anyone rush to be a master, how embarrassing it is to spread it." You'd better hurry up, it's going to be dark, but don't delay the two of us getting down to business. It's late, as soon as the city gate is closed, don't be targeted by the officers and soldiers anymore, if you go to prison, I won't save you anyway. ”

"Zidi, it's not bad to learn medicine and poison at the same time, I don't object to you worshipping him as a teacher." A peaceful voice came from not far behind Zidi, snatching away the words that the old man was about to argue. The three of them were stunned for a moment, and then they all looked at the door, Mr. Duan was wearing a moon-white dark coat and standing under the eaves with his hands in his hands, revealing a calm atmosphere.

Hearing this, let alone the purple flute, even Lu Ci was a little surprised, and looked at the door suspiciously for a long time before he moved his eyes and wanted to speak, but he didn't know what to say for a while, and he was a little difficult to understand what his master meant.

Zidi turned his head and glared at the old man with yellow taro viciously, then waved his hand towards the door and said, "Master, you misunderstood, I never thought of learning these harmful things. "Mr. Duan was able to take her as an apprentice, which was her blessing, and many people couldn't ask for it, so she cherished such an opportunity. She didn't want to ruin the master-apprentice relationship between her and Mr. Duan because of a stinky old man's nonsense.

"I'll just say, Xiao Duan's bearing is different from ordinary people, and it's good to be able to make such a decision." After the old man reacted, he grinned at Mr. Duan, and then turned his smug smile at Zidi, "Apprentice, what's the matter?" Xiao Duan made it very clear that he could co-teach me with an apprenticeship. Since he is so sensible, he will take a step back as a teacher, and he will not decide in the order of eldest and youngest. From now on, Xiao Duan is your master, and being a teacher is your second master. ”

Zidi automatically ignored the smiling face of the old man Huang Yao in front of her, frowned and looked at Mr. Duan, his expression was full of eagerness, and said: "Master, when Sister Ling saved me, I secretly swore in my heart that I must be a good person in this life to repay her kindness. Now how can I learn poison and do something that hurts nature and reason? In this way, I am sorry for your cultivation of me, and I am sorry for Sister Ling. If Sister Ling knew that I had done such a thing, she would have been disappointed in me. ”

"As long as the heart is right, learning poison is also saving people. Besides, medicine and poison are inherently connected, and your talent in this area is excellent, so don't waste it. Mr. Duan slowly walked down the steps, raised his eyes and glanced into the distance, the sunset on the horizon had all disappeared, and the evening breeze was slightly cool.

When Zidi first came to work in the medical hall, Mr. Duan noticed her amazing progress in the knowledge of medicinal materials, so he paid more attention to it for a while, and found that it was the same in other aspects, and she learned very quickly, so he really saw her talent in this area, so he later accepted her as a closed disciple.

Without waiting for Zidi to speak, the old man Huang Yao excitedly echoed: "It's still a small paragraph of open-mindedness, that's right." ”

The old man Huang Yao knew that Zidi was Mr. Duan's closed disciple, and from this point he expected that Zidi's talent should be good, otherwise how could he get into Mr. Duan's eyes. That's why he messed around with Zidi like this, wanting Zidi to inherit his mantle and become his successor.

Zidi felt a trace of loss in her heart, and it was still a little difficult to understand Mr. Duan's words for a while, but Mr. Duan said so, so she had no choice but to comply. After a while, she first glanced at Mr. Duan's rather charming silhouette, and then turned her head to look at the smug old man, and nodded reluctantly: "Okay then." ”

"That's right, apprentice, you've finally figured it out. I don't think it's better to choose a day than to hit the day, so let's do the apprenticeship tonight. The old man was carrying a taro stem and leaf on his shoulder, and he couldn't help rubbing his hands, and the eagle's eyes staring at the purple flute were shining, and those who didn't know thought he was disrespectful to the old man and wanted to do bad things.

Seeing that Zidi ignored him, he paused and repeated: "I think tonight is an auspicious day for the zodiac, and it has to be tonight." After worshipping the teacher, the teacher will take you to the Dark Pavilion to get the antidote, and then take you to the rivers and lakes, so that you can experience what is comfortable. ”

"I'm not done. You can teach apprentices, but you are not allowed to take Zidi out of Huizhou and leave me. Mr. Duan's voice was flat, but he coldly poured a basin of cold water, extinguishing the fire of excitement above the old man's head.

If he didn't, Mr. Duan was really afraid that this treacherous old man would lead the originally pure and gentle apprentice into crooked, after all, Zidi's age was still too young to be truly qualified. So he had to put the two of them under his nose and remind or teach Zidi at all times. Besides, Zidi has been studying medicine for less than a year, but she has only learned a little bite, and what he really wants to teach has not yet begun, so he can't let her go with the old man.

The old man was immediately unhappy, and just wanted to open his mouth to refute, but Mr. Duan turned around and glanced at him, but there was hardness in his faint tone: "If you don't agree, just leave it at that, this matter is not negotiable." ”

"Okay then." After some hesitation, the old man nodded after some hesitation, who let this Mr. Duan have a preconceived idea? And his life is still in the hands of others, which is a matter of having to bow his head. But at this time, his whole person was full of loneliness, and he originally wanted to take this apprentice to wander the world, the rivers and lakes are so big, they can let their master and apprentice go to freedom.
