Chapter III
I rented a carriage and rode it all over the gang to get back to the gang.
When Qing Ling walked to the door, he looked at the door with "Hengshan Sect" written on it, and then asked me, "Master is from Hengshan Sect?" ”
I replied, "Yes." ”
"That master is so powerful, he can become a ruling elder in a major sect like the Hengshan faction!"
I looked at Qing Ling's eyes that seemed to have some admiration, but also a little embarrassed, and said, "Let's go, my house is on the top of the mountain, and it will take a long time." ”
Along the way, many people saluted me and called me "Uncle Yiwu".
After I settled Qingling, I said, "You wait here for a while, you can read the books as you like, and you can pick the flowers outside the house as you like, but don't run around, I need to reply to the head of everything." "I saw Qingling nod in agreement before I went down the mountain.
I walked to the helper's study, and the helper looked at me and asked, "Is the mission complete?" ”
I replied, "Yes." ”
The helper looked me in the eye, and I looked him in the eye, and I knew that the more times like this, the less I could show the slightest flinch. If something goes wrong for a moment, the gang leader will also guess that Qing Ling must be the child of that family.
The helper suddenly laughed, patted me on the shoulder, and said, "Good, you've been good all along." But I heard that you brought back a child with a water spirit root, right? ”
I replied, "Yes, the Water Spirit Root is the rarest of the Spirit Roots, so I want to bring her back and inherit my mantle." ”
The helper let me go without further questioning.
In fact, I have a strange feeling, it seems that the helper actually knows about Qingling's background, but I don't dare to be sure, let alone ask. If I had asked, Qing Ling would definitely not have survived.
I don't know if it's a good thing or a bad thing for me to bring Qingling here.
Let's take one step at a time.
When I went back, I saw Qing Ling sitting on the ground, as if he was weeding, and when he saw me coming back, he waved his hand excitedly and said, "Master! Then he lowered his head and went to work.
I asked her, "How are you outside the house, what are you doing?" Qing Ling pointed to the weeds next to him and said, "I want to get rid of these weeds and plant them with some flowers, what does Master think?" ”
I nodded, "I don't like to do these, if you like them, you can do them, but remember to water the flowers, and buy the flower seeds after a while." ”
Qingling seemed to be happier after hearing my permission, and worked harder to weed.
I watched her work outside from afar, and I knew in my heart why she was doing this. When her parents died, she cried every day, although it had been a while, but she was still a little sad in her heart.
She could only keep herself busy and not think about it. Not thinking about it can't change all the problems, but at least she won't be so sad.
Later, when the gang sent people to the market to buy, I informed Qingling and told her to follow them to the market and buy all the flowers she wanted, so she happily followed them to buy flowers and didn't come back until the afternoon.
When she came back, she asked me, "Does Master have any favorite flowers?" ”
I thought about it for a long time, and I didn't seem to have any favorite flowers, and if I was to say that I was relatively interested, it seemed that only nightshade was nightshade. I said, "Nightshade." ”
Qing Ling looked very disappointed, and whispered, "Night primrose, I bought rose seeds." ”
I said, "It's okay, if you like it." ”
Roses are actually very beautiful, without the sternness of roses and the elegance of chrysanthemums, but if you look closely, they are very gentle and fair-skinned noble flowers.
I built a fence in the yard, and from the time the roses sprouted to the time they grew, they would grow around the fence and eventually they would join together.
I thought that Qing Ling wouldn't care if I liked nightshade, but I never thought that the next time someone went down the mountain to buy, she asked that person to help her bring a small nightshade back, and from this way in the yard.
Nightshade and rose are both very light flowers, even if they are planted together, they are also very light and light fragrances, and the light floral fragrance wafts in with the wind at night.
Such a day is dull and comfortable.
Although Qingling is my disciple, I brought her to Hengshan to send her, in fact, I don't want her to participate in fighting and killing, more often I hope she can be an ordinary person.
This also has my selfishness, after all, Qingling is a girl, and I hope she can grow up safely like other girls. Fighting and killing is actually too cruel for her. I also don't hope that one day I will receive the news that Qingling has died.
Qing Ling usually practiced martial arts in the gang more often, usually came back home, and more often played with me to play with flowers and plants, and then played the flute.
Qing Lingcong once asked me, "Why doesn't Master teach me martial arts?" I heard Uncle Qingshan say that Master is also a water spirit root, if Master teaches me, I will definitely get twice the result with half the effort! Why didn't Master teach me? ”
I asked her, "Why do you want to learn great martial arts?" Do you want to take revenge on the man you were back in? ”
Qing Ling nodded and said, "That's natural, he killed a large family of us, I want to take revenge!" But I don't even know who he really is, and how can I get revenge. Qing Ling lowered his head, and said with a somewhat depressed look in his eyes, "If I don't take revenge, how can I explain to my family." ”
The more Qing Ling said this, the more scared I actually became.
I don't know when I started to be more and more afraid that she would know the truth in the future, and if she knew the truth, would she still be willing to call me "Master", but would she still be willing to follow me?
I guess I don't want to.
I said, "Living for hatred is not necessarily what your parents wanted. ”
On the surface, it was high-sounding, but in fact I was just worried that she would know the truth, so I was really a hypocritical man.
Obviously just worried that she would know the truth in the future, obviously killed her family, and obviously did irreparable things, but on the surface, he said it was for her good, and he said it so high-soundingly. I'm a total liar and a total jerk.
I looked at Qing Ling and lowered my head, and said softly, "But I can't help it, Master, my life, my life, my life......"
She didn't say anything, but I could feel her sadness.
Her life was actually ruined by me.
Late at night, I stayed in the yard, and as I walked all the way, I looked at the roses in full bloom, and at the nightshades that grew up a lot older than before. Fate is something special, and before she came here, I never thought of turning the yard into a flower garden.
Qing Ling didn't know when he came to me, covered me with a pair, and asked, "Master, what's wrong?" Don't you rest in the middle of the night? ”
I looked at Nightshade and sighed, "I remembered something from the past, and it was fine." Go and rest first. ”
Qingling said to me, "Master once said, I don't know anything if you don't say it, and now I will give this sentence to Master." If Master doesn't say it, how will the apprentice know what you're thinking? I was brought up by Master, and I also thought about sharing Master's worries. ”
Share my worries.
If you know the truth of everything, whether you will stay with the teacher or not, the teacher does not know at all, and I am not sure at all.
It was I who was sorry for you from beginning to end, it was I who hurt you deeply, and I brought you back that day to alleviate the sin in my heart, but it has become more and more uncomfortable over the years.
I hurt her, I'm a sinner, how can I still suffer from her?
