Chapter 342: Shao Zifeng's Birthday (4)
There is nothing special about the internal layout of Yangui Building, the whole floor is a banquet hall, the left and right sides are the guests who have not yet arrived, the front is the first seat where the host sits, and the middle is a particularly spacious place, which is the position of singing and dancing.
The pavilions on the second floor and above are rooms of the same size and scale, which are places for guests to rest, Yin Lingyue has already learned about the room where Ling Jiyan is from Shao Zifeng, because there is still some time before the banquet starts, Ling Jiyan only arrived today, so he naturally rests in the room.
In fact, there is a specially arranged room for Ling Jiyan in the Cloud Chasing Villa, even if Ling Jiyan has never even seen that place once, but this Shao Zifeng is the most apprentice specially arranged for the master, and in the same way, Yin Lingyue actually has a special courtyard, not the Orchid Garden where they live now, but Yin Lingyue obviously doesn't know this yet.
After coming to Ling Jiyan's resting place, Yin Lingyue first knocked politely on the door, and then waited for the people in the house to respond.
"Who?" The middle-aged man's voice soon came from inside the room, and this voice Yin Lingyue was all too familiar.
"Master, it's me, Yue'er." Yin Lingyue's joy was beyond words.
"The door is unlocked, come in."
With Ling Jiyan's permission, Yin Lingyue pushed the door in, inside the house, Ling Jiyan was leaning on the edge of the railing, looking at the lively scene outside through the window, Yin Lingyue walked to his side lightly and called: "Master." ”
"Well, here we go." Ling Jiyan still looked outside leisurely, and just said this lightly about Yin Lingyue's approach, just like don't reunite without experience between the two, Yin Lingyue just went out for a walk and then came back.
Ling Jiyan looked at it for a while, then reached out and closed the window, turned to Yin Lingyue and said, "Yue'er, I haven't seen you for a long time, you girl is a lot bigger and more sensible, at least when you enter the room, you know that you have to knock on the door first, and then enter it after getting the permission of the master." ”
Ling Jiyan obviously affirmed Yin Lingyue's polite behavior just now.
"Of course, if Yue'er hadn't grown at all, you would have been training for so many days in vain."
For the matter of being praised by Ling Jiyan, Yin Lingyue was obviously very happy.
"I thought that you would always hide under the wing of your senior brother, and I was worried that such overprotection would be a great obstacle to your growth, but I didn't expect that you girl has been practicing outside by herself these days, being able to make all kinds of friends, deal with various emergencies, and experience life and death, these are all things that the teacher can't give to you, your experience this time is much better than the master expected."
Ling Jiyan summed up Yin Lingyue's experience, and the appreciation and satisfaction revealed from time to time in her words made Yin Lingyue feel very comfortable when she heard it.
"But Yue'er, you are still far from Master's expectations for you! I heard from your senior brother that your medical skills have improved by leaps and bounds, but there is still no progress in martial arts, and it is obvious that you have not practiced martial arts well at all. ”
"But Master, I don't like martial arts at all." Yin Lingyue muttered quietly.
"If you don't like it, you have to learn!" Ling Jiyan was very tough on this point, "Yue'er, you must know that no matter how good your medical skills are, there is no way to do it after all, it is impossible for Master and Senior Brother to protect you for the rest of your life, we hope that you can have the ability to take charge of yourself, we don't need you to be a peerless master of a generation of heroes, at least in the face of such a thing as hunting, you can have the ability to protect yourself." ”
Yin Lingyue couldn't help but think of every chase she had experienced before, it seemed that every time she chased and killed, she would be extremely annoyed that she didn't learn and didn't know how to do it, and resented her mediocre martial arts, and then began to regret her slack when she practiced martial arts, but after escaping, she was as slack as always, and her martial arts were still such a three-legged cat.
"Yue'er." Ling Jiyan looked at Yin Lingyue seriously and said, "Didn't you keep asking Master, why are you always so strict with you?" ”
This is indeed the question that Yin Lingyue asked the most when she was in Changbai Mountain before, at that time, the master always told her that one day you will know, Yin Lingyue asked many times to no avail, and then slowly gave up, but now it was Ling Jiyan who brought up this issue first.
"You know, there are only two apprentices for you and Feng'er, and now the master still has the energy to take care of the Imperial Sword Gate, but the master will grow old one day, and when the time comes, it will have to be handed over to you, the master does not expect you to make the Imperial Sword Gate flourish, but at least don't let it fade day by day, Yue'er, you must know that this is a responsibility that you cannot escape, so you can only try to make yourself stronger."
"But, isn't there still a senior brother?" Regarding the heir of the Imperial Sword Gate, Yin Lingyue has always felt that it will be her senior brother, after all, the senior brother is such an excellent person, and he is the most proud disciple of the master, isn't it a natural thing to inherit the Imperial Sword Gate?
Ling Jiyan shook his head, "Your senior brother is indeed very good, if you hand over the Imperial Sword Gate to him, you can rest assured as a teacher, but things are not as simple as you imagined, and the responsibility on your senior brother is far heavier than we imagined, a Cloud Chasing Villa is enough for him to be busy, and the responsibility of the Imperial Sword Gate really shouldn't be added to him." ”
Ling Jiyan's words were reasonable, so that Yin Lingyue couldn't think of a rebuttal, too, she has always been comfortable and used to it, when she really should be responsible, she didn't even think about it and directly shirked it to others, which is indeed very irresponsible, although she doesn't admit it, but Yin Lingyue has always been protected too well by them.
"Master, I understand everything, I will definitely work hard in the future, and strive to be able to take on my due responsibilities as soon as possible, I am also your apprentice, although I am not angry, but at least don't let you down too much."
Ling Jiyan smiled, the little girl she raised by herself was finally sensible, and she couldn't help but feel relieved.
In fact, Ling Jiyan has always been afraid that she will raise Yin Lingyue to be abolished, she had no mother when she was very young, and then she grew up under the care of him and Shao Zifeng, and it was inevitable that she was spoiled, fortunately, this girl had a kind temperament and did not develop any arrogant and domineering temperament, otherwise, Ling Jiyan would not have the face to see Yin Lingyue's mother under Jiuquan.
The master and apprentice chatted with each other next, about Yin Lingyue's experience this time, Ling Jiyan was obviously very concerned, Yin Lingyue was also willing to talk to the master about the assassination of the Wind and Rain Building, about befriending Luo Wenyu, and worshipping Zhao Yi as a teacher, Yin Lingyue talked about it in detail, but about things like the Holy Medicine Valley, the Dragon and Phoenix Twin Cities and Zhao Yi's identity, Yin Lingyue chose to conceal it, after all, he promised that he should keep his promise.
It wasn't until someone came to report that the dinner was about to begin, and the master and apprentice went downstairs hand in hand.
