Chapter 20: The Palace Master

Shi Kezhen took Yu Shen'er's hand and went straight into the hall, there were more than a dozen young women on each side of the hall, these women all had good faces, but their expressions were cold, they were not smiling, and they were each holding blades, as cold as ice.

Directly above the hall is a jade-like stone chair, and the stone chair is crystal clear throughout. There was a woman dressed in white standing next to the stone chair, she stood with her back to her, Shi Kezhen walked into the hall and didn't look back, just stared at a painting hanging on the wall, as if her soul had left her body!

When Shi Kezhen walked to the center of the hall, he didn't dare to move forward, and immediately bowed down to the woman and said, "See the master!" ”

The woman was still looking at the painting on the wall, ignoring Shi Kezhen, who knelt on the ground, not moving, and did not dare to get up without permission. The same is true of the women on both sides of the hall, standing respectfully on the sidelines.

Yu Shen'er saw the woman standing with her back to her, and couldn't see her face, and asked Shi Kezhen in a low voice: "Senior sister, is that the master I want to worship?" ”

Shi Kezhen frowned, pressed Yu Shen'er to the ground, made her kneel on her knees, and didn't answer her.

After a long time, the woman said, "Get up!" Wu Zi didn't turn his head. Shi Kezhen pulled Yu Shen'er to get up and said to the woman: "The master ordered the apprentice to bring the daughter of the deceased back to Yunshui Palace, and the apprentice has completed the master's life." This is Yu Shen'er! ”

According to the etiquette that Shi Kezhen had taught her, Yu Shen'er knelt on the ground again, and bowed to the woman: "Shen'er to meet the master!" The woman turned slowly and said, "Get up!" ”

Yu Shen'er raised her head and finally saw the woman's face clearly, the woman was born with snow-white skin, natural appearance, and beautiful as a flower without powder. However, there is no blood on his face, his lips are like frost, his expression is cold and arrogant, and he is not angry and arrogant!

Yu Shen'er saw that she was almost the same age as Shi Kezhen, Shi Kezhen called her sister Du Ke, how could she call her master? opened his mouth and said, "Are you really the master I want to worship?" But I look like my sister! ”

Shi Kezhen glanced sideways at Yu Shen'er and motioned for her not to talk nonsense. In fact, the owner of the Yunshui Palace is already in his thirties, but his face still looks like a teenager.

The woman said, "Do you live in Yuhu Village?" Yutong and Li, who make a living from fishing, but your parents? Yu Shen'er said: "Yes, they are my father!" They both died two months ago. Speaking of this, Yu Shen'er lowered her head and became sad.

The woman said, "That's right! I am the master you want to worship. Yu Shen'er said: "Disciple, thank you master for taking it in!" ”

The woman stretched out a hand, let Yu Shen'er get up, and said, "More than ten years ago, I was seriously injured and unconscious, but it was your father and mother who saved me. Your father and mother don't want gold and silver, so I promise that if your jade family is in trouble, I will definitely help. After hearing the news of your father's passing, I intend to take you as an apprentice to repay your father and mother for saving their lives. From now on, Yunshui Palace will be your home! ”

Yu Shen'er said happily: "I have a home!" The woman sat on the jade chair and asked Shi Kezhen, "Zhen'er, I heard that you also brought a few strange men to Yunshui Palace?" ”

Yunshui Palace has a rule that strangers are not allowed to enter, Shi Kezhen immediately knelt down to the woman, and said busily: "Yes, master!" They said that they were old friends of the master, and the disciple did not dare to slack off, so he took the initiative to bring them to Yunshui Palace, and asked the master to punish them! ”

The woman thought for a moment and said, "I haven't walked in the rivers and lakes for a long time, what old friends want to see me?" You call them in! Shi Kezhen walked out of the hall quickly, saw Lu Buping, Gu Shijin and others still waiting, and said, "My master wants to see you, please come with me!" ”

Lu Buping and Gu Shijin were in front, and the rest of the people followed closely behind, stepping into the hall, only to see that the hall was extremely spacious and very imposing. The two envoys of Yin and Yang saw that although the hall was full of young women, the responsibility of the protector was on their bodies, and they did not dare to slack off.

When everyone stepped into the hall, they saw a woman in white sitting directly above, and when they got closer, they saw the woman's appearance clearly, although they secretly admired her beauty, they also wondered about her bloodless skin!

Gu Shijin saw that the woman was quite majestic, and said in his heart: "This should be the cold-faced fairy, the palace master of Yunshui Palace, Shui Qishan!" He immediately bowed and said, "Gu He Villa meets the Lord of the Water Palace!" "Lu is not calm and arrogant, neither bowing nor speaking.

Shui Qishan looked at the group: there were scholars, children, big lame, little lame, and a black-shirted man and a white-shirted person. "You say it's my old friend, but I don't seem to know you!" ”

When Shi Kezhen heard his master say that he didn't know these people, his heart was pounding, worried that he had done something wrong!

Gu Shijin said: "I really don't know the Lord of the Water Palace, but we have a mutual friend. Seeing that he was gentle and elegant, well-behaved, and claimed to be a person from Guhe Villa who didn't care about the affairs of the rivers and lakes, Shui Qishan asked, "Who are you from Guhe Villa?" ”

Gu Shijin said: "Below is the owner of Guhe Villa. Then he introduced the people around him one by one, pointing to the two envoys of Yin and Yang and said, "These are my two brothers." Pointing at Gu Huaiyan, he said, "This is a dog." ”

When he was about to introduce Lu Buping and the little beggar, Lu Buping coughed, interrupted Gu Shijin, and said in a thick voice: "I am an old beggar, this is my granddaughter little beggar!" ”

Shui Qishan asked: "Master Gu said that he has a mutual friend with me, I don't know who this person is?" Gu Shijin said: "It's the evil doctor who is not right!" ”

Shui Qishan said: "I only have a few sides of the relationship with my predecessors, and I can't talk about friends." I heard that Gu He Villa has always been not asking about the affairs of the rivers and lakes, and I have not been walking in the rivers and lakes for a long time, so I don't know what advice the owner of Gu Zhuang came to here today? ”

Gu Shijin said: "Don't dare to advise!" I came here today to ask the owner of the water village to save someone! ”

Shui Qishan saw that Gu Shijin's face was full of red light, and he didn't look sick, the person he wanted to save must not be him, and he was not proficient in medical science, so why did he want her to save people? Said: "Who does the owner of the water village want me to save?" ”

Gu Shijin took the little beggar's hand and took two steps forward, and said, "This is the person!" Shui Qishan got up from the stone chair and approached the little beggar, only to see that she was thin, but he couldn't tell what disease she was suffering from, and said, "What's wrong with her?" ”

Gu Shijin told Shui Qishan about Xiahou's robbery of the Taixuan Sutra and seriously injured the little beggar, and handed over the letter to Shui Qishan for inspection. Shui Qishan was silent for a long time after reading the letter, and suddenly muttered and repeated Xiahou Jin's name in a low voice: "Xiahou Jin...... Xiahou ......"

Gu Shijin saw that there was suddenly a trace of hatred in Shui Qishan's cold face, and he knew that the doctor was not right, and she and Xiahou Jin really had a holiday! As for what the festival is, of course I won't ask her!

Shui Qishan pointed at the little beggar and said, "She was injured by that ungrateful person Xiahou Jin?" Gu Shijin said: "Yes, I don't know if the Water Palace Master has an antidote?" ”

Shui Qishan sneered: "Of course I have!" When everyone heard that Shuiqishan really had an antidote to save the little beggar, they all looked at each other and smiled, and they didn't rush for so many days in vain!

Shui Qishan said again: "If I want to save Xiahou Jin's enemy, I am willing, but I ......"

Gu Shijin saw that Shui Qishan wanted to speak and stopped, and said: "If the Water Palace Lord has anything to worry about, just say it!" ”

Shui Qishan said: "The antidote in my hand is not my own, it is given by the evil doctor. Originally, she wanted to save ......" She was about to spit out a person's name, but suddenly stopped saying it again.

continued: "This medicine is precious, it is extremely difficult to refine one, and at that time, the medical evil had already said that the medicine given to me could only save the people of Yunshui Palace. You are his friend, and you must know his temper, and if I take his medicine, I will save others without his permission. I'm afraid that when I see him one day, he will blame me! ”

Gu Shijin has been friends with the doctor for eight years, and he knows his temper well, he hates others taking his own things without permission, even if it is so important to save people, his life is so important, and he never acts like an ordinary doctor.

If the doctor is not here at this moment, Gu Shijin asks the righteous brother for medicine, and the righteous brother will definitely give as much as he wants. But at this moment, the doctor is not here, how to prove to Shui Qishan that the relationship between him and the doctor is not to compare her with the medicine to save the little beggar?

Gu Shijin smiled slightly and said, "This is easy to do!" Shui Qishan saw Gu Shijin for a moment, and then he had a way, and said, "What is the way Master Gu Zhuang?" ”

Gu Shijin said: "I wonder if the master of the Water Palace minds accepting another disciple?" Shui Qishan immediately understood what he meant, and Gu Shijin said again: "This little girl is already helpless, if she enters the Yunshui Palace and worships the master of the Water Palace as a teacher, it will really be a blessing in disguise, and the three lives are fortunate!" ”

The two envoys of Yin and Yang nodded again and again, thinking that this was a good idea. Lu Buping suddenly grabbed the little beggar's shoulder and said, "No! She's my granddaughter, I can't worship her as a teacher! ”

Everyone was very surprised, and they didn't want to be uneven and would oppose it. As soon as he entered the hall from Lu Buping, Shui Qishan felt that he was strange, and when he looked at him, he always dodged left and right, and couldn't see his face clearly.

Shui Qishan said: "This ......" she saw that the road was uneven and a little gray, but she couldn't see her face, he only said that he was an old beggar, and he couldn't call him a beggar, he didn't know how to call him for a while, but fortunately he didn't call it: "Have we met?" ”

Gu Shijin and the others were shocked when they heard that Shui Qishan and Lu Buping knew each other, they had never heard Lu Buping mention that they knew Shui Qishan, and they didn't know if what Shui Qishan said was true or false? I saw Lu Buping tilting his head and saying, "Do you know the old man?" The old man doesn't know you! ”

Shui Qishan looked at his figure, and couldn't tell where there was a feeling of déjà vu that made her feel uneven. When I heard his voice, it was completely unfamiliar, and I couldn't help but say to myself: "Who is he?" ”

Shi Kezhen, who had retreated to the side, said to Shui Qishan: "Master, this is the predecessor of the uneven road. He once saved the lives of his apprentices! Shui Qishan heard the man call "Lu Buping", he didn't know him at all, and said in a low voice: "Could it be that I admit my mistake?" ”

Seeing that it was a misunderstanding, Gu Shijin walked to Lu Buping's side and said, "Senior, now the injury on your granddaughter's body can only be treated by the Lord of the Water Palace. Do you really not let her worship under the door of Yunshui Palace? ”

Lu Buping pondered for a moment and sighed: "Since this is the case, then let my granddaughter decide for herself, if she wants to worship, then worship." If she doesn't want to, I will kill that Xiahou Jin and force him to get the antidote! ”
