I looked up at him, he smiled, and then said: "Uncle Xia, let me tell you, your apprenticeship is in Bohai Bay, hehe, this time it is the Yin Branch, and the Yang Branch's apprenticeship will wait until seven years later." I'll give you a word of congratulations first. Oh, I didn't expect my little junior brother to become a master too. ”

At that time, I was still worried about Liangzi's affairs, and when Senior Brother Bao said this, I felt even more uncomfortable.

Uncle Xia asked him to bring me such words, the purpose was very clear, that is, to tell me that I should accept apprentices, and I don't seem to be able to escape this apprenticeship no matter what.

But I'm not ready to be a master at all, Hongchen preached, I only saw Hongchen now, but I don't know what the "Tao" that has been pursued for thousands of years is in the vein of righteousness.

I was in a mess, but Senior Brother Bao asked me how I would eat at night and asked me if I could cook in my current state.

I can only move normally with my right hand, and I still have a plaster cast on my left hand, so I can eat normally and just cook.

That night, we ordered some dishes in a nearby restaurant, Liu Shangang accompanied Brother Bao to drink two glasses, at the wine table, we discussed the most about Liang Zi, in fact, Liang Houzai and I surrounded Brother Bao to ask questions, just to find a reason to prove Liang Zi's innocence, but the more we discussed, the more I felt that Liang Zi was very suspicious.

Because there were still some things that had not been dealt with, Senior Brother Bao left after eating, and after I returned to the room, I still kept thinking about these things in my mind.

That night, I first thought about Liang Zi, and then I thought about Luo Youfang, the first ancestor asked me to find him, but where is he now, the thing disguised as Liang Houzai once said that Luo Youfang's current situation is very critical, what happened to him.

Tossing and turning all night, it wasn't until the next morning that I fell asleep in a daze.

We stayed in the nursing home for a whole month, during which Zhang Zhenyi came to remove the stitches for Senior Brother Geng, he saw Senior Brother Geng's injury, and said that there will definitely be sequelae, even if he can walk normally in the future, when it is cloudy and rainy, Senior Brother Geng's leg will still have a faint pain.

For this, Senior Brother Geng didn't seem to care, he said that he almost died when he was five or six years old, and later it was the uncles and uncles of Jisoul Village who spent a lot of money to find the best doctor to cure his lung disease.

That's how I learned why every time Senior Brother Geng laughed, there was always a strange sound in his throat like a bellows, which turned out to be the sequelae of lung disease in his early years.

I asked him what kind of illness he had in the first place, but he said that the past was gone, and it didn't matter what kind of illness he had, the important thing was that he survived, and if he often thought about the events of the past, he might feel that he was a miserable person.

After a month in the nursing home, my injuries have basically healed, which surprised Zhang Zhenyi, he said, if an injury like mine is replaced by someone else, it will be just able to walk around after a month of recuperation.

Speaking of which, my recovery ability is stronger than ordinary people, and I still rely on the blessing of the second master

Leaving the nursing home, it was almost winter, I originally planned to go to Beibi Mountain to have a look, but the day before departure, the second master suddenly called, saying that there was something wrong with Bohai Bay, let me go back and see.

I asked him on the phone, "Is there something wrong with the ghost baby?" ”

The second master's tone was a little surprised: "How do you know?" ”

I didn't answer his questions, just promised to go back as soon as possible.

In fact, when Senior Brother Bao told me that my master-apprentice relationship would appear in Bohai Bay, I knew that one end of this fate was connected to me, and the other end was connected to the ghost baby.

I really fell in love with this kid, and I liked him from the bottom of my heart when I first met him, but if I was asked to accept him as an apprentice, I was still somewhat resistant, not because he was not good enough, but because I was not ready.

But since fate has come, I can't escape, and if something happens to the ghost baby, I can't ignore it.

In this way, we simply packed up and returned to Bohai Bay.

Originally, I wanted Senior Brother Geng to continue to recuperate in the nursing home, but he said that it was boring for him to stay there alone, and the injury was almost healed anyway, so it would be good to follow us around and take a look. I can't screw him, so I can only take him with me.

As soon as we arrived in Bohai Bay, we went straight to the second master's new home, the old house of the second master had begun to move, and Boss Dong arranged them in the apartment under his name. All the elders of the family have an independent house, and the house where the second master lives is the largest, although there is a patriarch who is over eighty years old above him, but everyone knows in their hearts that on the land of the family, the person who really holds the real power is the second master.

The second master's new residence is a two-story garden house, when we got there, Wang Lei was watering the flowers in the yard, as soon as he saw us, he came up and opened the door with a blank face, and said: "You are fast enough." ”

Liu Shangang teased him with a smile: "Why don't you laugh at an acquaintance when you see it, this is indifferent." ”

Wang Lei glared at him: "Get out!" ”

I noticed that when Wang Lei spoke, his lips seemed to be much more natural than before, and the words he said were not as blurred as before.

I asked him, "Have you got a new skin?" ”

He patted himself on the cheek: "Well, it's a new product. Hurry up and go in, the second master is waiting for you. ”

As soon as he entered the room, there was a large living room, and the second master was half-lying and half-sitting on the sofa drinking tea.

As soon as the second master saw us, he greeted us with a smile: "Come on, come on, sit down." The little bunny makes tea and goes! ”

If you don't come back to your senses slowly, you give the second master a blank look, and get up to make tea.

It can be seen that Boss Dong takes good care of the second master, the furniture in the living room is a special model, and the sofa is as wide as the bed.

When I sat down, the second master also said to me: "This Xiao Dong is really good, he has eyes, he will come to things, and he is quite sincere." I just don't have a daughter, if I do, I'll introduce my daughter to him, hahahaha......"

I smiled at the second master: "The second master has been in a good mood recently." ”

The second master nodded: "Not bad, yes, everything has been done smoothly lately, can the mood be worse?" You're coming back fast enough, are you worried about the ghost baby? ”

I didn't answer him, I just asked, "What's wrong?" ”

The second master said: "Actually, it's not a big deal. It's the ghost baby, this child, born with a yin body, often sees some unclean things. His grandfather came to me the first two days and said that the ghost baby seemed to have been entangled by something recently, and you know, our old family is not good at dealing with these things, so he invited you. ”

I smiled helplessly: "It was my Uncle Xia who asked you to call me back, right?" ”

The second master was stunned for a moment, and then smiled: "I'll just say, this kind of thing must not be hidden." There is a way, the apprentice is also unattainable, the ghost baby has good qualifications, and you will not suffer a loss when you become a master for others. ”

"I just feel that I'm not ready to be a master." I leaned back on the arm of the couch and sighed.

The second master still had a smile on his face, he raised his chin towards the kitchen, and said to me: "What are you not prepared for, when I received the little rabbit cub in the first two years, I also drove the ducks to the shelves, isn't it okay now?" ”

At this time, if he came out with the tea tray, he threw the tea tray on the table with a bang, and asked the second master angrily: "Who do you call the little rabbit cub!" ”

The second master glared: "It's you, what's the matter?" ”

If you don't want to be a little anxious: "Old man, if I can't beat you, I'll ......."

Second Master: "What's it?" ”

If you didn't continue, you glared at the second master fiercely and went up to the second floor.

The second master looked at his back and sighed: "Bear child, there are no rules!" ”

Senior Brother Geng also glanced at Yu Ruofei's side, turned back to the second master and said, "Second master, you teach your apprentice, the rules are wide enough." ”

"Alas, there is no way," the second master sighed and said: "If it weren't for this child's life, he would not be blamed for becoming like this, our old family can't stand him." Hehe, in fact, this kid is not bad in nature, and he has a knife mouth and a tofu heart. Okay, don't talk about him, you better go to Lao Yang's side as soon as possible, the matter of the ghost baby is actually quite serious. Oh yes, here's the address. ”

As he spoke, the second master leaned over to me and handed me a folded piece of white paper.

I glanced at the address above: Unit 902, Building 9#, Xinfuhai, Damn, isn't this next door to the apartment I live in?

I raised my head to look at the second master, and I saw a bad smile on the second master's face, needless to say, the ghost baby's residence must have been specially arranged by him.

In fact, the ghost baby lives in front of me, and I have no objection, but the key problem is that the rent in that place is very expensive, and I accepted him as an apprentice, and this money must still be paid by me.

The second master said: "Your place, relying on the school, the smell of books is strong, and in addition to your university, there are several junior and senior high schools nearby, so it is convenient for the ghost baby to go to school there." ”

I felt bitter in my heart, but I still said, "Thank you." ”

In fact, it wasn't me who slammed the door, it was indeed because the funds of the Soul Village were too tight this year, and I thought at that time, maybe after this year, I wouldn't have to worry about money in the future. But later I learned that in our industry, to raise an apprentice, it is simply like spending money, and it is difficult to reduce expenditure.

We simply drank a few sips of tea at the second master's house, and then said goodbye to the second master and ran to Xinfuhai.

As soon as I arrived on the ninth floor, I wanted to go home first to get some things for the method, but I didn't expect Lao Yang to get the news in advance, and waited in the corridor early in the morning. ”

I had no choice but to give up the year of going home, took the ink fountain left for me by my master, and followed Lao Yang to room 902.

"When did you move here?" When I entered the house, I asked casually.

Lao Yang hurriedly responded to me: "Two days after you left Guizhou, the second master asked someone to pick us up." ”

Then he trotted all the way to lead me to the bedroom, because the ninth floor is an apartment hotel, and the decoration style of each household is similar, except that this house is smaller than mine, there is no difference in layout.

As soon as I entered the bedroom, I saw the ghost baby lying on the bed, his body covered with a thick quilt, and a wet towel on his forehead, and a faint yin qi in the air.

I opened my eyes and saw that there was a faint black smoke coming out of the quilt, and the ghost baby was indeed entangled by the evil spirit, and those black smoke came from the mark planted by the evil on the ghost baby.
