Chapter 226: Receiving Disciples
The morning light had broken through the last shimmers of gloom, and the morning star had disappeared in the sunlight. Han Dongchi muttered, "Yes, it's dawn." β
When the day dawns, it's time for all the nightmares in the illusion to end.
Han Dongchi didn't want to think about the powerlessness in the dream anymore, he weakly dragged his disabled leg and helped Ye Wenxiu up from the ground, "I'm sorry, Brother Ye." I'll be at your disposal when you get out. β
Maybe it was the effect of the phantom poison that made him clear the fog of the past more clearly, indeed, it was not Ye Wenxiu's fault that he was in love with his fickle cousin Linglong, and his inability to hold a sword in his arm and his divorce could not be counted on the other party's head. Everything has a cause and effect. Han Dongchi sneered, "That's it." β
Ye Wenxiu frowned and looked at him, "What are you laughing at?" "What can he say after he goes out, sue Han Dongchi? Or move my dad out and compare who has the biggest official position? It's all too boring.
Ye Wenxiu glanced left and right, but didn't see the familiar petite figure, and his heart jumped, "What about Xue Rou?" β
Fang Changming patiently replied, "Miss Xue, as well as Yuan Gongzi, have already gone down the mountain first. Let's go down too. If nothing happens, the two of them will be the apprentices of Master Leng from now on. β
When Ye Wenxiu heard this, he didn't have any regrets, but he was less worried about Xue Rou, at least Yuan Junfeng would protect her. He suddenly noticed something, and glanced at the two people in front of him, "I didn't find out in the past, you two are the same......"
Fang Changming smiled helplessly, "It was my father who asked me to disguise before, and Fang Changming apologized to Brother Ye and Brother Han here." β
Maybe it was this experience of wandering on the border of death that made him grow, or maybe it was the phantom poison and Ah Chang's betrayal that exposed his true nature. In short, Fang Changming himself is not a forbearant and gentle character.
The three of them walked side by side, all dragging a disabled leg, Fang Changming was ruthless, and he didn't want to make it difficult for them to move an inch, so the two knife marks were scratched on the same leg, and the other one could still be used.
A red lantern has been hung at the door of Leng's house, and it has not been so lively for many years. The Leng family has no hostess, and there will be no new young master, when other people's homes are lively, the Leng family is deserted, and only when the free clinic can you see the lively scene.
The courtyard was already full of seats, and Master Leng was sitting in the house, sipping a fragrant tea, "Are they praising me, or are they warning me?" β
Lala's miscellaneous large group of people, many of whom had received favors in the past, but also brought their servants with them. It's not like a banquet, it's like a smashing scene, but it's lively, so that people passing by are speculating about what happy events have happened.
"Master Xu is Leng has newly married a concubine, and he doesn't have to say that it is not necessarily?" A village woman carrying a basket said.
"Don't talk nonsense, Leng Lao Bodhisattva has a heart, such a good person, who has never married in his life, and specializes in treating people, where did he come from?"
"So what's so busy?"
The old woman on crutches smiled slowly and said, "I heard that Master Leng accepted apprentices, and he has accepted such a single time in his life, once or twice." Let's all join in the fun. When I was young, I had a rash, and my whole body was scratched undecently, and any doctor was scared when he saw me, and it was all cured by Master Leng. That's what makes me have to join in the fun. β
The chief housekeeper of the Leng Mansion is surnamed Wang, known as the Wang Steward, and he stood at the door to greet the endless stream of guests, "Hey, Mrs. Li, our Leng Mansion is a happy event, but we don't accept gifts." Just get there. Ouch, auntie, come on, why do you still take so many eggs, take them back quickly. No way? That Xiao Li, come and take it to the kitchen. β
With a smile on his face, he ushered in one after another, wiped his sweat and walked into the house, and when he saw Master Leng drinking tea leisurely, he couldn't help complaining, "Is this your acceptance of disciples, or do I marry my daughter?" I'm all alone. β
Old Man Leng touched his beard, "It's all said, there's no need to make such a big deal about accepting an apprentice, you have to make a mat, of course you have to greet yourself." β
Steward Wang and Master Leng are old acquaintances, and they are also good friends for more than 20 years, as soon as they heard his words, they sat on the stool and drank tea angrily, "These old patients are good to greet, and they are kind to you." If someone comes to the Chengdong Medicine Fragrance Workshop, I think you will have to be arrested sooner or later......"
As he was talking, a small guy hurriedly walked in outside, "Master, Miss Xue and Yuan Gongzi are awake!" β
Old Man Leng put down the teacup in his hand, and there was a smile on his face, "Really? Then I'll have to go see my two apprentices. β
Xue Rou woke up first, after all, she didn't lose much blood, just a little dizzy. His head was groggy, he first touched the mattress under him, and there was something wrong with the touch, and he thought for a few seconds before he suddenly reflected, Ah I came out to play with Brother Yuan, and I was not in the residence of the imperial city. It turned out to be outside, and the blame had to be right.
Xue Rou opened her eyes with great effort, and saw a cage of pink bed curtains with four corners, holding a corner of the quilt embroidered with dark patterns in her palm, her wrists were neatly bandaged, and there was a slight tingling. It seems that it is already in the courtyard of the old man's house.
The pain reminded her that they had just come out of their vision. The more I think about it, the more resentful I become, those damn colorful and colorful snakes.
"Brother Yuan?" Xue Rou muttered unconsciously.
"Huh?" I received a reply, such a familiar and reassuring voice.
"Nothing, just wanted to call you. We came out alive, happy. Xue Rou curled the corners of her mouth and smiled, but this time she did not receive a reply.
Curious, she propped herself up to look, only to notice that there was also a bed not far from her bed, but it didn't seem to fit in with this room, probably moved from another room.
Yuan Junfeng was lying on his side on the bed, his face was facing Xue Rou, sleeping soundly, and that answer should be due to habit. His wrist was tied with the same strap as Xue Rou's, suggesting that they had experienced such life and death together.
Xue Rou snorted out laughing and poked his cheek, "I'm really asleep, I'm not afraid of danger?" Why do you not know how to prevent it? β
Old Man Leng coughed lightly and knocked on the door, "Am I coming at the wrong time?" β
Xue Rou looked up, only to find that the door had been pushed open half of the door at some point, and she looked intently and didn't notice the slight movement.
Old Man Leng laughed and sat on the edge of their bed, "Isn't it too late to be shy now?" β
Xue Rou's face turned even redder, and she couldn't wait to go underground immediately, and she still didn't admit defeat, "It's all because the cold senior's movements are too light, like a cat, who can pay attention?" β
Old Man Leng laughed, "Do you mean that you still blame the old man?" β
Xue Rou pretended to be angry, "That's it." Brother Yuan and I are already engaged, so it's definitely okay to poke your face. You came in out of the blue, and it scared me. Isn't it wrong to be cold senior? β
Master Leng also learned from her to cool down, "Nonsense, are you still called Senior Leng now?" β
Xue Rou was stunned, "What's the name of the senior?" Cold old man? β
Yuan Junfeng, who was pretending to be asleep, couldn't bear it anymore, and sat up suddenly, "Stupid Rou'er, call Master." β
"Huh?" Xue Rou was stunned again, "When did you wake up?" β
Yuan Jun was hesitant, could he say that he had woken up a long time ago, just watching Rou'er keep poking and pinching his face, wanting to see if there was any further action, such as a fragrant kiss or something. Who would have thought that Master Leng would come in suddenly, and when he heard his fiancΓ©e's straightforward confession, he almost couldn't hold back his laughter.
Xue Rou also reacted, angry, "Yuan Junfeng, you!" β
Old Man Leng couldn't help laughing, "You talk, you talk." After chatting, come out and wash up and dress up, although I don't pay attention to it so much, but there is still a mentoring ceremony. β
After Mr. Leng finished speaking, he got up and went out, and he also took the door with him.
Xue Rou pounced on him and pinched his face, "Are you okay, Yuan Junfeng, have you learned to pretend to be asleep and eavesdrop?" So many years of indecent disgrace and don't listen to the big truth have been eaten into the dog's stomach? β
Yuan Junfeng hugged her, touched her back soothingly, and smoothed her hair, "Madame, don't be angry." I'll recite it to you as much as you want, but not now, we still have to go to apprenticeship. Look at the unkempt appearance, go out and let the family see it, you have to say that Master Leng has a bad eye, and he accepted such an apprentice. β
Xue Rou sat up, "Yes." I need to wash up, we've been tossing around in the mountains for so long, I don't know how much dust there is, we need to wash it up. β
Yuan Junfeng looked at Xue Rou, who was spinning like a small spinning top, and his heart was warm. This is his fiancΓ©e, how cute.
Master Leng is indeed as informal as he said, and he doesn't care so much about specific and tedious etiquette. It is simply a matter of prostrating to the teacher and offering tea, and the ceremony is completed. What Yuan Junfeng didn't expect was that he also became a disciple of Master Leng.
Originally, he was looking at Xue Rou gently to bow to his teacher, but when he saw Master Leng's eyes, Xue Rou grabbed his hand with a smile, "It's your turn, junior brother." β
Yuan Junfeng was dragged to serve tea and kowtow with a stunned face, "Master Leng, what's going on?" β
Old Man Leng looked at him with disgust, "Rou'er, you teach him what to do." β
Xue Rou looked at Yuan Junfeng with a smile, "Brother Yuan, my name is Senior Master Leng, right, then you should also be called Master." Don't you recognize our relationship? She clutched her chest in pain, "If you don't admit it, I'm going to die of sadness." β
When Yuan Jun heard it, it really made sense. Xue Rou is his wife, and of course his wife's master is also a master. The master just screamed out so stupidly.
Xue Rou smiled and bent over, "This is great, Master, I have a little junior brother!" Quick, call me Senior Sister Xue! β
General Yuan was inexplicably demoted from the eldest brother to the younger brother, and when he learned the truth, his face instantly darkened. Yes, in addition to the relationship between husband and wife, they also have a layer of sister and brother relationship. His little sister was so naughty that she went around him.
Yuan Junfeng reluctantly served tea, "The master is above, and the disciple Yuan Junfeng will visit the door today, and he will do his best to learn what I need, treat the sick and save people." β
Master Leng looked at the pair of apprentices in front of him, "Okay, good." I want to be cold and someone crisscrossing the rivers and lakes for a lifetime, but I didn't expect that there would be such an opportunity to receive two smart apprentices, and God really treats me well! β
Suddenly, a hearty laugh came from outside, "What chance?" Brother Leng might as well tell me about it! β
Steward Wang, who was standing on the side, suddenly changed his face, "It's someone from the Medicine Fragrance Workshop!" β
