Chapter 10: Apprenticeship
"Little doll, I'm getting more and more interested in you now!"
The old man looked at Shen Liang with a smile, and his greedy gaze was not disguised at all. It's just that he was careless, and he didn't notice the faint red light flickering in the placket of Shen Liang's chest at all......
"Mother, Mother......"
Shen Liang finally saw his biological mother again, his mother from the Demon Ji Continent.
She stood in front of Shen Liang with a smile on her face. Shen Liang was excited for a while, and stretched out his hand to touch it, but found that the place he touched was unreal.
Shen Liang was scared, worried that his mother would leave him again. In a hurry, he couldn't help shouting "Don't!"
What should have happened happened happened. The mother's body, which was already close to transparent, became more and more blurry. The illusory figure faded away, but the loving smile on his face and the love emanating from the depths of his eyes were like a brand, and he couldn't go away for a long time......
"Don't!"
In the stone cave, Shen Liang suddenly jumped up from the ground like a corpse. The old man was also stunned. After Shen Liang's anxious gaze looked around, he realized that this was just another dream.
Shen Liang lowered his head and smiled self-deprecatingly, only then did he realize where he was now. At that moment, he couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat, laughed dryly, scratched his head and said, "Eh, why is the old man still here?"
That's an idiot question.
The old man smiled playfully and said, "Then where should I be?"
"You should go to the eighteenth layer of hell, and you will never be reborn!"
Of course, Shen Liang only dared to think about this sentence in his heart, he didn't forget the death that he had just been tortured by this old guy.
"It's the kid who is confused, and the kid is leaving. ”
The old man's eyes narrowed, and he sneered, "Are you sure you want to leave?"
Suddenly, Shen Liang took back the foot that had just stretched out, and his heart felt weak for a while.
"Uncle, I know it's wrong. Don't dare to bother you anymore. Just leave me alone. Shen Liang made a bitter face, and deliberately made a tearful appearance, which was very pitiful.
"You can let it go, as long as you agree to be my disciple. ”
The old man didn't care how pitiful Shen Liang was, and just said lightly something that made Shen Liang mad several times.
Shen screamed wildly in his conscience, "Dead old man, you can't find anyone, you have to find your Uncle Shen to be your disciple, I'll RI you immortal banban!"
"Can you tell me why you have to be your disciple?" Shen Liang asked lightly.
"Because you're talented enough. The old man said.
"There are a lot of people who are more talented than me."
"How many can I meet here?"
Shen Liang was silent. yes! in this weird place of death. It's one thing to find it, it's another thing to be able to get in. What's more, even if you come in, it's another thing not to be tortured to death by this old guy.
"What are the requirements for accepting me as an apprentice?" Shen Liang asked.
Hearing this, the old man was impatient for a while, frowned, and said, "You have a lot of questions. “
"If the old man doesn't make it clear, I'm afraid I don't want to. “
The old man snorted coldly, looked at Shen Liang for a moment, and Shen Liang, who had been watching, straightened his hair, and then said, "Accepting you as an apprentice is because I have taken a fancy to your talent, and second, you live in the Shen family." More importantly, I want you to do something for me in the future. “
"What's the matter?"
The old man shook his head and said, "I can't tell you yet. “
"If you don't tell me, how do I know if I can do it?" Shen Liang said lightly.
The old man was furious! The majestic true qi erupted from his body in an instant, shaking the stone cave slightly. Shen Liang, who was closest to him, bore the brunt of the attack, and was shocked back to the edge of the stone wall by the true qi.
"Little doll, you have too many questions. If you dare to refuse me again, the pile of bones behind me will be your fate!"
Looking at the bones of unknown birds and beasts of all sizes behind him, Shen Liang was shocked, but he still said unconvincedly, "Even if I worship you as a teacher now." Aren't you afraid that I'll turn around and regret it?"
"Hahahaha~~!"
The old man laughed wildly and said, "I'm afraid you don't have that ability, for me now, you are like an ant, let others take care of it." As long as you dare to repent, I can make your life worse than death! Even if you run to the ends of the earth, I will break free from the chains of the dark iron and chase you to the edge of the sky!"
Shen Liang was shocked and said in a daze, "Could it be that you can really leave here?"
The old man sneered and said, "This secret place was originally built by me to trap myself, and even this dark iron chain was put on by myself, why can't I?"
"What?!! this is what you did???"
Shen Liang was terrified. He looked at the person in front of him in a daze, he never expected that this place was actually a prison cell that the person in front of him had built for himself, and he didn't expect that this terrifying scene on his body was his own masterpiece!! why did he trap himself? Why did he choose this secret place on the mountain behind the Shen family? And why did he know so much about the Shen family? Father, did he know......
Shen Liang suddenly found that the more he knew, the more confused he became. He was eager to know all this, to know what this person had to do with their Shen family? He wanted to go to his father to find out what the whole thing was about......
"Little doll, don't even think about running, and don't tell anyone about this place but you. Otherwise, your every move may kill everyone around you. Even if you want the entire Shen family to give you a funeral, it is not impossible. Hahahaha~!"
"Oh, that's right, don't have any hope for your eighth-order family master, Shen Tian. Even ten of him can't be my opponent!" said the old man with a sneer, the extreme disdain in his eyes was fully revealed.
Crazy! What a madman! Looking at the old man laughing wildly in front of him, and hearing the rattling sound of the iron chain being shaken, Shen Liang was really frightened. This man is really a madman who does everything. Shen Liang was afraid of him from the bottom of his heart, afraid that he would affect the relatives around him, and afraid that he would really make a move to slaughter the Shen family. For a moment, Shen Liang hesitated.
"Have you figured it out? I've been giving you a long time. “
Shen Liang raised his head, revealing a tired face. With a blank face, he said, "Master!"
The old man was stunned at first, then ecstatic, and laughed, "The little doll is really smart and knows the pros and cons of things. I didn't run in such a situation, not bad!"
Shen Liang was speechless for a while, can I run?
"You should be glad you just made the right choice, otherwise before you get out of here, you would have been poisoned by the ice spirit poison I had before. You will die of agony in the next hour. “
Shen Liang was startled and suddenly came to his senses. The ice spirit cold poison on this body has not yet been resolved, and he will not forget the reason why he rolled on the ground in pain just now. I was so obedient that I forgot that there was still this stubble. Fortunately, he agreed to be his apprentice, otherwise he wouldn't know how to die.
Shen Conscience had a realization in his heart, and secretly swallowed his saliva, before he stepped forward and said, "Please also ask Master to detoxify the apprentice." “
Hearing this, the old man smiled and said that the child can be taught, and then a true qi was sent out and shot into Shen Liang's body.
"This ...... That's it?" Shen Liang looked at the old man with some uncertainty.
I saw the old man smile and said, "Of course not, the teacher only temporarily helped you delay the onset of cold poison, and you can come once every half a month in the future." There won't be any seizures in this half month, and it won't affect your life, so you can rest assured. “
Shen Liang's expression froze, and he couldn't help but feel angry. Let me rest assured? Plant cold poison for me, and let me rest assured???
Hehe. Shen Liang sneered, and then quietly watched the old man without speaking.
Seeing this, the old man couldn't help but put away his smile and looked at Shen Liang coldly.
Suddenly, the atmosphere around the two of them was extremely strange. It wasn't until a moment later that the old man closed his eyes and spoke.
"What's your opinion?"
"Heh! don't dare!" Shen Liang sneered.
The old man was surprised. Where did this little doll get the courage to dare to treat herself like this. Moreover, he also showed wisdom and calmness that were different from his peers. This...... Still a child?
For a moment, the old man was silent.
......
At the same time, there was chaos in the Shen family's mansion. The people's expressions were solemn and their steps were hurried.
In the center of the hall, I saw Shen Jian and Shen Yun kneeling on the ground together, trembling all over, as if they were terrified to the extreme. Sometimes there is a slight sobbing. Behind them were the four companions, each shrunk in his arms and trembling. There are even more people standing around, all of whom can speak in the Shen family.
At the top of the hall, a burly man in a black shirt stood. Dahan was obviously furious at this time, his anxious face was filled with an unusual flush, and there was a slap-long scar on the left side of his face, which looked extremely hideous and terrifying against the backdrop of such a distorted expression.
And this big man is Shen Ao, the third head of the Shen family who has just returned home from business! He is also the biological father of Shen Jian and Shen Yun!
It's just that something like that happened, how could Shen Ao not be angry? It wasn't the children of his own family who were kneeling right now, and Shen Ao really had the urge to slap them to death!
The only son of the head of the Shen family, and the most outstanding son of the Shen family, Young Master Shen Liang disappeared!!
"Tell me again, how did Liang'er disappear?" Shen Ao was furious and asked, pointing to the two sons kneeling below.
"I ...... I ......" Shen Jian was frightened and couldn't say a complete sentence for a long time. I just sobbed.
"What are you crying about a dignified man, you have lost all the faces of my Shen family!" Shen Ao glared at Shen Jian and scolded loudly.
He Shen Ao couldn't see a big man crying in his life, but it happened to him, and it was his son. Every time I see his unsuccessful son crying, I begin to wonder if this is his species?
Alas, the family is unfortunate!
Shen Yun saw that his father was angry, so he hurriedly persuaded his brother, and said nervously, "Father, what we said is true, the good brother is really missing in the back mountain, and we can't find it no matter how we look for it." “
Hearing this, Shen Ao let out a sullen breath and asked suspiciously, "Why are you running to the back mountain if you have nothing to do?"
"We ......"
Shen Yun and Shen Jian glanced at each other, and they both saw the trace of determination in each other's eyes.
Shen Yun comprehended, and hurriedly said, "We went to the back mountain to play, but we didn't expect this to happen." “
"Play, Liang'er is about to be ruined by you! Don't you know that your good brother's martial arts talent is more than ten times stronger than yours? If something goes wrong in his cultivation in the future, who of you can afford it?" Shen Ao immediately scolded.
Shen Yun and the others shrank their necks in fright, and they were silent. They can't afford it.
It's just that this group of children, childishly, lied about the promises they made in their mouths. While being complacent in their hearts, they didn't know that they had really done Shen Liang a great favor and avoided a catastrophe for the Shen family!
In the hall, not only the important people of the Shen family are here, but even the girl of Feng Yeling is also in the crowd.
At this time, the wind leaf spirit does not look as arrogant as it was at the beginning, just like the people in the painting are cold and tight. It's just that no one knows, but there is a trace of restlessness in her heart. Even if it's herself, she doesn't know ......
