Chapter 035: Parting Ways

Mowgli quickly forked four or five fish. Probably because there are no people here, the fish is fat and stupid, and they don't know how to be afraid of people, so they swim around Wuji leisurely, and they are almost crossed by Wuji.

Mowgli broke off a branch, threaded the fish, and looked at the little girl. "I'm leaving. If you are willing to come with me, you will come, and if you really do not want to, I will not force you. The short knife is left for you to defend yourself, and if you encounter a bad person, you stab him. If you encounter a wild beast, uh, you can ask for your own blessings. However, you can't eat that little mushroom anymore, or you'll die an ugly death. ”

The little girl didn't say a word, and I don't know if she understood.

Mowgli sighed, put down a fish, and turned to walk back. He didn't walk fast, for fear that the little girl wouldn't be able to keep up. After walking about a hundred steps, he heard the sound of small footsteps behind him, and when he looked back, the little girl was holding a short knife in one hand and dragging a fish in the other, and followed. As soon as she saw him turn around, she immediately stopped, lowered her head, and looked at her toes. Wuji shook his head, turned around and continued walking. The child is like a timid little rabbit, and he will be very nervous at the slightest movement.

Seeing Wuji continue to move forward, the little girl hesitated for a moment, and slowly followed. The two of them kept a fixed distance one after the other, and returned to the old man and Qin Dangdang. Seeing the little girl behind Wuji, Qin Dangdang was very surprised.

"Who is she?

"I don't know. I met by the waterhole in front of me, the adults in the family died, and I was picking mushrooms by the waterhole alone, and I didn't understand anything, so I picked a bunch of poisonous mushrooms. If I hadn't seen it, she would have been poisoned. ”

"Yes, you didn't ask her?"

"When asked, she would only scream and say nothing. Wuji frowned, "Probably frightened." ”

Qin Dangdang also frowned when he looked at the little girl who was standing in the distance, neither approaching nor leaving. "What are you going to do? Take her away? We ourselves are also very dangerous, although there has been no movement in the past two days, but I believe that Yin Xuan will not give up, he will catch up at any time. ”

Wuji understood what Qin Dangdang meant, and was silent for a moment. "Otherwise, you take the old man first, and I'll take her away. In case Yin Xuan chases after him, it's a big deal that I will fight with him. ”

Qin Dangdang's face sank, and his voice became stern. "Mowgli, we are doing a big thing, and this matter is related to the future of the empire......"

"I'm a fugitive, what does the empire have to do with me. Wuji and Nameless caught fire, interrupting Qin Dangdang, standing up violently and throwing the fish in his hand on the ground. "You're afraid that we'll drag you down, just go by yourself, and I didn't ask you to take us with you. ”

Qin Dangdang also stood up, his eyebrows cold. "Mowgli, is it promising to be a fugitive? You can not be a fugitive. As I said, as long as you can help us accomplish this great thing, you can become a national soldier......"

"The countryman is hairy!" Wuji raised his neck and spat disdainfully. "You don't fool me. You think I don't know, if you want to make a name for yourself in the Heavenly Academy, you must not only have a strong transformation ability, but also have royal blood. I have neither the ability to shapeshift, nor the royal bloodline, so it is impossible for me to become a disciple of the Heavenly Academy, let alone a national scholar. ”

"You ......" Qin Dare was furious, his face flushed with anger. "You think I'm lying to you, and you doubt my sincerity just because of a little girl of unknown origin?"

"Don't dare. Wuji shrugged his shoulders and sneered: "However, you and I have counted how much sincerity you have, so you don't have to feel how wronged you are." Don't care if this little girl is of unknown origin, that's my business, and it has nothing to do with you. ”

As he spoke, he turned and walked towards the little girl. "Come with me, let's change places, don't be an eyesore in front of nobles. He took two steps, then stopped, and pointed to the short knife in the little girl's hand. "This knife belongs to the nobleman, give it back to him, don't owe people favors in vain. ”

After saying that, he took a big stride and walked away without looking back.

The little girl blinked, looked at the short knife in her hand, slowly placed it on the ground, and then dragged the fish and trotted after it.

"Hey......" Qin dared to raise his hand and wanted to scream, but when the words came to his mouth, he felt that he couldn't speak. He was stunned for a long time, and when he saw that Wuji had disappeared into the woods, he was so angry that he stomped his feet. The old man had been watching coldly, and when he saw that Qin dared to be so angry, he said lightly: "It's okay to separate." Being with us doesn't do him any good, and it's not good for us. ”

"But ......"

"Don't. The old man laughed, and the knife-like wrinkles revealed the wisdom that saw through people's hearts. "I told you a long time ago that he was a wild man who was neither humble nor lawless. Such a person cannot be a loyal servant of the empire by nature, nor can he be your friend. You want to turn him into your subordinate, which is an unrealistic delusion. ”

Qin Dangdang was speechless, and when he saw the fish on the ground, he was so angry that he flew up and kicked the fish into the air.

"Fish is our food, and it's not Mowgli, what are you kicking it for? The old man said unhappily: "You can't even bear this blow, what else will you do in the future to save the empire?"

"I ......"

The old man closed his eyes. "Also, don't forget, if you want to become a great teacher and master the Heavenly Academy, you must first be ruthless. He did not marry a wife, he did not have children, he did not have a family, he did not start a business. He has served the empire all his life and has taken it as his lifelong belief in maintaining the world of the Ying family. Those who violate this oath will be destroyed by heaven and earth, spurned by thousands of people, and will not be allowed to enter the ancestral temple of the Ying family when they die. ”

"Sir, I know. Qin Dare - Ying Yiran stiffened his face and said in a deep voice: "Sir, you are too worried, I am not so useless." ”

"I wish I had been overthinking. The old man sighed. "You're both too perfectionist, and it's really not a good fit. ”

Ying Yiran raised her eyebrows, and her face was blushing. "Mr. ......"

"Alright, alright, let's not talk about it. The old man waved his hand again and again, "Hurry up and pick up the fish, we are ready to go when we are full, we don't have much time." ”

"He called the fish, and I don't eat it. Ying Yiran said angrily: "There is still some meat left from yesterday, I will roast it again, barely deal with one meal, and eat something good next time." ”

"Well, why bother. The old man sighed softly, shook his head helplessly, stood up, put his hands behind his back, and gently beat his waist. "You roast slowly, I'll go for a walk. ”

"No!" Ying Yiran rushed in front of him with an arrow, opened his arms, and blocked his way. "You can't leave my sight. ”

The old man's cheeks twitched, he groaned for a long time, and the corners of his mouth were slightly raised: "You still say you don't care? Anyway, he saved my life, and he didn't pose any threat to us. Grace will take revenge and kill innocents in vain, and the ancestor god will not agree. ”

"Sir!" Ying Yi's face was red.

The old man raised his head, looked at the faint purple halo on the horizon, and narrowed his eyes slightly. "Actually, I also want to see how long he can live without our protection in this Purple Moon Forest, and if he can surprise me a little more. ”
