2. Cultivation begins

She was still scared of me: "You won't hurt me? ”

I took off my coat and threw it away: "Don't catch a cold. ”

By this time she had relaxed her vigilance against me a little, and although she hesitated, she still draped herself over me, and I stood up and stretched out my hand, but the woman trembled a little, and looked at me suspiciously and fearfully.

I smiled and said, "Let's go, I'll take you upstairs and give you something delicious!" ”

She looked very nervous, but she finally grabbed my hand, and I suddenly felt that her hand was cold, without any temperature, as if it was a piece of ice, but I think it was because it was winter, so her hand was so cold.

I took this beauty upstairs, she seemed very timid, kept observing the situation around her, as if she was a kitten that had been adopted and brought home, I moved out of the stool and motioned for her to sit down, but she simply sat on the ground, which surprised me, I hurriedly said: "How dirty the ground is, you haven't mopped the floor yet, what are you doing sitting on the ground?" ”

"In the past, the Taoist told me that I was just a medicinal herb and only worthy of sitting on the ground." The girl said.

"And what about the scars on your body?" I looked at her with a frown.

The girl continued timidly: "It was all whipped by the Taoist master, and he said that my life is only worth being his experimental subject......

"Test subject?"

"The Taoist is very powerful, he can use a lot of spells, and then he will use my body to experiment with those spells, some spells will breathe flames, and some spells will blow strong winds...... I'm scared, you...... Could it be like that? The girl looked at me with a smile, and in those clear eyes, I couldn't find any warm flame, which made my heart tremble, I don't know what kind of person would torture such a girl like this.

I stretched out my hand again and put it on her head, but she closed her eyes, as if she was afraid, and put her hands on her shoulders, and I didn't do anything other than touch my head, and after a while, the girl opened her eyes and looked at me: "What are you doing?" Does this mean anything? I...... I don't really understand. ”

"You will live here from now on, and I will protect you." I don't know if it's because of men's natural protectiveness or pity, I said this, but I said it from the bottom of my heart.

The girl's eyes looked at me a little better than before, and she said, "Do you want to be my master?" ”

I looked at her in amazement, and the girl said, "The former Taoist master claimed to be my master. ”

"I'm your friend." I said.

"Friend, what is a friend?" The girl's eyes kept twinkling.

I don't know how to explain it, Xindao, I can't change this girl's mind for the time being, it's better not to force her to change first, the coming days will be long, and slowly let her adapt.

I didn't answer her, but poured the rice from the rice cooker, and then poured the curry potatoes in the microwave, and the girl looked at the two pots of curry rice on the table and said, "Master, are there any guests coming here today?" Do you want me to hide, I'm afraid of scaring your guests......"

I looked at her in surprise: "No, how can you say that?" This one is for you,"

The girl covered her mouth: "The previous master, only gave me some leftovers, I have never eaten such a good meal." ”

I had a convulsion in my heart: "Not anymore, you will eat whatever I eat in the future." ”

The girl nodded, as if she was afraid that I would regret it, and began to eat very clumsily, her movements were very stiff, not at all like she was eating, but more like she was afraid of me and coping with the task.

After a moment, I asked, "What's your name?" ”

"I don't have a name." The girl said, and the previous owner called me, "Puppy." ”

I looked out the window and it was snowing lightly, and my heart moved, so I said, "I'll give you a name, just call Xue Meiniang?" ”

Xue Meiniang looked at me happily: "Is it true, great, I have a name!" ”

But the joy was fleeting, and she quickly looked around in embarrassment: "That...... Host, such a delicious meal is the first time I have eaten, and it is also the first time I am full, very ...... Thank. ”

I could tell that although she didn't want to say that she was lying, she seemed to be quite suspicious and uneasy inside, as if she was confused by an experience she had never encountered before.

I looked at the time and said, "It's almost evening, you go to rest first, I still have to sort out the materials, and I have to go to school after this winter vacation." ”

I'm still a sophomore, so my days at home are temporary.

"That...... Master, where do I sleep at night? Xue Meiniang looked at me timidly.

I then remembered that I hadn't yet set her up a place to sleep, so I looked at the layout of the house and said, "Who's the guest room, you go to the shower first, and I'll give you a few of my mother's clothes to wear." ”

Xue Meiniang nodded mechanically, but her eyes were still so wary of me, I couldn't help but want to ask her, why she was so wary of people, but I thought that at this juncture, she hadn't believed me yet, I'm afraid that asking her for no reason would only bother her.

So I just took my clothes to the bathroom door and left, I first went to the basement, to find out, who is the person who tortured Xue Meiniang, could it be my grandfather? But then I thought that a person like my grandfather usually kills a chicken and recites the Taoist Sutra for it, let alone torture such a flower-like girl.

So I went to the basement and started to look through the materials that my grandfather had spilled down, and although it was dusty, I found a book of notes bound in vellum, and I turned to the last page, but what was written on the last page shook my whole body, and then my fists clenched.

My grandfather actually belonged to a place called Daomeng, and my grandfather's death was not so strange, the diary said, it was when he was fighting with a demon outside the Dao, he was accidentally injured, and then he put the demon shrine in the basement, and he planned to release the things inside after a while, but he didn't expect the old injury to recur and passed away, poor my parents always thought that my grandfather died of illness!

My whole body was trembling, maybe because of anger, maybe because of excitement, anyway, my heart couldn't calm down for a long time, I stayed and went back upstairs, at this time I saw Xue Meiniang just came out of the bathroom, and the heat emanating from her around her was like a cloud, enveloping her in it.

And she was wearing my mother's old clothes, which looked very loose, maybe she was slim, but my eyes fell on a pink mole on the inside of her arm, and I couldn't help asking, "What is this?" ”

"It's ...... Shoumiya sand. Xue Meiniang seemed to be difficult to speak, but she still answered me directly.

I felt that I had asked about the privacy of other girls, and hurriedly said, "I'm sorry, I didn't know it was Shougong Sha." ”

"It's okay master, since you took me in, then I'm your thing." Xue Meiniang looked down at me, obviously her eyes revealing fear.

I knew that it would be useless to talk too much, so I said, "Go and rest, there are some things that I will talk about tomorrow." ”

Xue Meiniang answered and went to the guest room I arranged for him, and I lay in my room tossing and turning, I remembered that over the years, my grandfather had hinted more than once to let me learn his skills, but I refused, at this time my heart has surged with a layer of remorse, I feel sorry for my grandfather.

Someday, I'm going to find out what the guy who hurt my grandfather, and what the hell is that alliance.

The next day, I woke up in the morning and asked about the taste of eggs, I went to the living room, and found that Xue Meiniang had cleaned the messy room very much, and was washing my stinky clothes piled up, and there were egg cakes and boiled water on the table.

When Xue Meiniang saw me come out, she said, "Master, breakfast is ready, I hope it will meet your appetite." ”

I looked at Xue Meiniang, and said in my heart that if I want to find my grandfather's enemy, I'm afraid I have to rely on Xue Meiniang, but now is not the time, I have to slowly make Xue Meiniang believe me, otherwise even if I force her to find the previous master, I'm afraid Xue Meiniang will resent me.

God knows what the origin of Xue Meiniang is, and I can't be too anxious about this, I have to go through the cycle gradually.
