Chapter 9: The Master Sheds Tears
You... With this sword .... Slain stone beasts? ”
"Yes, Master! That's it! ”
"Yuan'er! I thought you could have such magical powers, but I didn't expect to be bewitched by it! Bai Duchen's feet were unstable, and his voice was also trembling, Lu Xueyuan wanted to reach out to help him, but he was swept by his palm.
"You know what it is! How dare you! How dare you use this evil bloodthirsty thing to slaughter the Golden Lion Spirit Beast inside my door!! ”
Lu Xueyuan was caught off guard by Bai Duchen's sudden anger, how could she know that this was a bad magic weapon, and Lu Xueyuan felt that it was compatible with her temperament and temperament, and it was extremely easy to use.
Lu Xueyuan gritted his teeth, his chest rose and fell, a pair of peach blossom eyes burst out with a fierce cold light, raised his head and stared straight at Bai Duchen and said, "I picked it up in the tower!" If the master doesn't want me to use it, just tell me directly, don't lie to me by saying such things! You should know my temperament, everything I like, whether outsiders praise it as a golden flower or demean it as a rotten wood, as long as I recognize it, it can only be it! ”
"You! Bai Duchen was whitened by her clever and quibbly face, and instantly raised her arms and stretched out five fingers, and muttered in her mouth, "You..."
"Master, are you going to beat me?! You hit! Since I said that I am willing to be punished, I will let the master beat and scold and never fight back! She then added, "It's not the first time anyway!" ”
"What did you say?!" Bai Duchen's eyes were red, his throat squirmed up and down, as if he had swallowed all the unspeakable words into his stomach, and said softly: "For the teacher... I have ever beaten and scolded you..."
Lu Xueyuan glared at him disappreciatively, her eyes were full of stubbornness, as if she was silently telling that she was definitely not lying.
Bai Duchen frowned, stunned for a long time, slowly withdrew his palm, and sat lightly on the chair, his eyes dim. He suddenly chuckled and whispered, "When you were three years old, you accidentally set fire to it and burned down half of the forest. The ten-year-old was curious to catch birds and splatters blood on the spot. At the age of thirteen, you begged me to teach you how to draw a lock spirit array, but you attracted ten ghost warriors... Pile by pile, piece by piece, for the teacher He Zeng... He really blamed you. As a teacher, I only hope that you can grow up steadily, stay away from worldly disputes, and only seek peace for the rest of your life. ”
He turned his head to look at Lu Xueyuan, his eyes were red as if they had never been so fragile, and he stared at her eyes tightly, as if he wanted to carve someone into his heart. "Yuan'er, do you know how I felt when I saw you lying on the ground covered in blood? I even thought ....." He squeezed the jade sword in his hand fiercely, his knuckles were slightly red, and suddenly a tear as clear as a diamond slipped from his eyes, and said faintly: "Do you know that I have never been afraid of anything in my life, but that day is the day I am most afraid of." ”
He continued: "There is not much to ask for for the teacher, as long as you can be safe, so... It's already the best. ”
Lu Xueyuan suddenly felt that her nasal cavity was sour, she gritted her teeth, and tried her best to restrain herself from crying, but the tears slipped down without fighting, and the tears in her left eye were like beads with broken threads, silently, dripping on the back of her hand. Then her eyes wept, and she covered her mouth with her hand.
Peaceful? In her life, she has long lost her heart of stability, but what she wants is never just peace.
After Bai Duchen finished speaking, his expression was cold and cold, and he raised his eyes to look at the wall, but he saw that he was bare and nothing.
The 'Immortal Sword Drawing' that hung before had already been taken down by Lu Xueyuan, and she hadn't hung anything on it anymore, and there were so many large blank spaces on the snow-white wall, which shone into Bai Duchen's eyes and was slightly dazzling, his long eyelashes blinked, and a wry smile overflowed the corners of his mouth.
If it weren't for the fact that he was so furious at the mention of the Lone God Sword just now, Lu Xueyuan would never have thought that the master who had been like a master for ten thousand years would have such a time when his emotions were out of control. In her eyes, he has long been detached from the ordinary, unhindered, and will not care about anything.
Not only does she think that in the eyes of the world, 'Mo Wanzun' Bai Duchen is already cold and does not eat fireworks in the world.
But today, when he mentioned the anger and fear of the Lone God Sword, and recalled the sorrow of the past, Lu Xueyuan felt that he was covered with wet dust and had fallen from the high god end to the world.
In this way, the idea of the Hechen faction is 'Virtue and Softness, and Light and Dust', so that he is more like a person, not just the cold master.
But the Lone God Sword is a sword that she finally found, and it is connected with her spiritual will, and it is very fateful, and she will never give up because of the master's sentence of 'yin evil and bloodthirsty', the world has changed, and she has also changed.
But how can you get Twilight to agree? This time, Lu Xueyuan felt that things were a little tricky. She pondered for a long time, and then said slowly:
"Master, Yuan'er is wrong, Yuan'er shouldn't be yelling at you, Yuan'er can understand that Shizun is afraid that I will be injured, and even more afraid that I will accidentally go on a different path, but Yuan'er assures you that I will never let it control its mind, and as soon as there is a situation, I will immediately react to Shizun, and never be strong! I really like this sword, and Yuan'er wants to cultivate with it! ”
Bai Duchen glanced at her silently, walked to the corner and picked up the Lone God Sword, and looked carefully, only to see that a light red ravine above seemed to be dyed red with blood, and the moment he touched the sword body, it suddenly burst out with extremely strong light, and the black aura of the sword hilt burned his hands red, as if he had a strong grudge.
At this moment, a light of extreme abomination reflected in Bai Duchen's eyes, and his five fingers quietly clenched into fists in his long sleeves. He turned around and said, "Since you like it so much, it's inconvenient to stop it as a teacher." But tomorrow is the trial meeting, if you want to participate in the competition with peace of mind, I will keep this sword for you first, and when you pass the trial, you can also rest assured that you can hand it over to you as a teacher. ”
"Really, Master? Would you really like to give me this sword? Is it as simple as passing the Trials Conference? Rest assured, I will definitely pass smoothly and not embarrass Shizun! ”
Lu Xueyuan couldn't be happier, in her eyes, with her current strength, it would already be easy to pass the trial conference, and this Lone God Sword would soon be in her possession.
Bai Duchen turned around and walked to the bed, touching her long hair as if soothingly, with infinite love in her eyes, "Of course it's true, how can I lie to you." ”
His gaze turned to the soup bowl on the table, "It's just that you fought the Golden Lion Beast a few days ago, and you were seriously injured, and your body hasn't recovered yet, so you're worried about you." ”
"Master of all kinds, thanks to your care in the past few days, I am much better now!" Lu Xueyuan said with an innocent smile, and the two shallow pear vortices seemed to have some kind of magic, and the spring breeze turned into rain, sweeping away the haze of the whole room. She then reached out and picked up the medicine bowl on the table, drank it all, wiped her mouth by the way, and said sweetly: "Master, you promised Yuan'er, don't regret it!" As he spoke, he stretched out the little finger of his right hand.
Bai Duchen's eyes were full of her mischievous cleverness, and she also stretched out her finger and hooked it with her little finger, "Okay, I promise you for the teacher." ”
After that, on the pretext of letting her have a good rest, he left her bedroom and went to his own Xixian Pavilion.
He didn't know that less than five minutes after he left, Lu Xueyuan got up from the bed, pressed his index finger against his throat and pointed hard, and spit out all the medicine he had just drunk into his mouth. She bent over and coughed hard, her face as pale as paper.
The revenge of killing has not been avenged, and her heart is hard to solve, why dare to drink the medicine fed by the enemy!
Taking away her Lone God Sword, just by virtue of this, will allow her to kill Bai Duchen again.
............................................
It's night, and it's silent.
The noise in the courtyard seemed to have suddenly fallen silent, and it should have been someone who had said something after coming. Wan Mengming, who was still playing with a group of people, suddenly stopped laughing, turned around and went back to her room, Lu Xueyuan also heard a 'bang', and there was a huge sound of slamming the door.
She is flawless at the moment, tomorrow is the trial meeting, she just wants to recover her strength quickly, so that she can succeed in one fell swoop tomorrow. And the best way for her to recover her strength right now is to sleep.
Lu Xueyuan lay on the bed, her eyes closed, and soon she couldn't tell the difference between reality and dream. Because, that man, is coming.
-------------------
In an empty hall, light gauze thin tent, red candles and fireflies, Lu Xueyuan seemed to be able to see a man's shoulders through the faint light veil, naked in the pool.
The light veil blown by the wind fluttered around, and there was a slight itch on Lu Xueyuan's face, and she instinctively lifted the veil layer by layer, only to see the man with long silver hair and a bare chest and back sitting quietly in the pool full of lotus flowers.
"Little girl, you're here." The voice of the Shadow was cold and empty, transmitted through the layers of mist.
"I...."Lu Xueyuan only felt a hot breath rushing to her face, and her face flushed in an instant, she seemed to be a little unaccustomed, cleared her throat, and continued: "Well, didn't you bring me here?" ”
Ying Yi sneered, but did not turn around, he seemed to be closing his eyes in the water of the lotus pond at the moment.
"When you fought that golden beast a few days ago, you weren't as shy as you were."
He knows? Lu Xueyuan said in his heart. She only knew that their numerology was connected, and he could probably guess what she was thinking when the two were together. But after the separation, she doubted whether it was really as close as he said.
"Then you.... Isn't it.... Also injured? Lu Xueyuan saw that this place was closed and blocked, but there was no bed, it should not be his dormitory, but a place of healing, otherwise he would not have brought her here.
"What? Do you want to go? Ying Yi suddenly turned her head, a pair of Danfeng eyes were soaked in tenderness, and asked her with a smile.
"To what?! How can I speak! Lu Xueyuan defended with a red face.
He was silent and did not make any reply, but he seemed to be in a good mood, and he opened his thin lips lightly, and said in a bewitching voice, "Come to me." ”
Lu Xueyuan was hesitating to go over, and when he was so close to the legendary ghost god who controlled the fate of human life and death, he was pulled directly into the lotus pond by a powerful force.
"Hey! You! She slapped on the water, and as soon as she gained her footing, a splash splashed her face. Ying Yi turned his head sideways, not letting the water droplets get wet for half a minute. He looked up at her, mist and red ears on both of them.
"Are you unreasonable?!" Lu Xueyuan wiped her face with her sleeve as she spoke, her fluttering eyelashes cast a long shadow on her face, and her heart fluttered when she saw it.
"Don't move."
"What?" Lu Xueyuan said blankly.
She smiled and reached out to pluck a lotus petal from her head, which matched her puffy cheeks, which was very beautiful.
"Elegant." He couldn't help but admire.
"Hmph." Lu Xueyuan snorted lightly, and said in his heart that he was also such a superficial person, and then raised his thin eyebrows lightly, his eyes full of disdain.
"I'm talking about lotus." As she spoke, she stretched out her thumb and raised her sword eyebrows, then lowered her thumb with her backhand.
Lu Xueyuan pursed her thin lips, clasped her hands on her chest, looked at the man who was less than a foot away from her at the moment, and pretended to be angry: "It's rude to listen to people's hearts casually, didn't your mother teach you?" ”
The originally hot and peaceful atmosphere quickly condensed into ice at this moment, and it was extremely cold.
