Four: Would you like to?
Lin Qingyan watched the child's dirty little hands grasp the corners of her clothes, in the dark night and moonlight of the blood, he stared at her silently, and there was fire in his eyes.
She slowly crouched down, keeping her eyes level with his, and blood was flowing down from the corner of his forehead, passing through the corner of his eye, as if it were bleeding tears.
So, Lin Qingyan stretched out his white sleeves and wanted to help him wipe the blood stains off his face, but the child took a step back.
Shen Chi looked at the person in front of him, she stretched out her sleeve and wanted to get closer to him, but her eyes touched her sleeve, white and flawless, just like her whole person, as if she couldn't tolerate a trace of filth, he thought that he was covered with stains, and couldn't help but take a step back, and the flame in his eyes dimmed for a moment.
She was in the clouds, and he was down to the dust.
"Don't... Don't be afraid!" Lin Qingyan said softly to Shen Chi, a smile tugging at the corner of her lips and stretching out her sleeves again.
Because she is a facial paralysis in modern times, she has never smiled, and the original owner has a cold personality and does not like to laugh, so Lin Qingyan immediately returned to her original expression after noticing that her smile was too stiff.
Fortunately, the child in front of him did not refuse.
That smile was too fast, like a flash in the pan, but it made Shen Chi stunned in place, forgetting to dodge, he looked at Lin Qingyan in a daze, and the immortal in front of him seemed to come to him from the clouds because of that smile, making him feel a sense of reach.
Lin Qingyan wiped the blood stains off Shen Chi's face, her sleeves were dark, but she didn't care, she looked at the child in front of her, and asked slowly, "Are you willing to follow me?"
She didn't mention anything else, but asked, "Would you like to?" There was no other pity or sympathy, as if she was going to take him away, but it was a decision that had been made a long time ago, and had nothing to do with this corpse-strewn massacre.
Yes, of course, but whatever... Don't want to?
Shen Chi looked at Lin Qingyan in the moonlight, she was so close to him, so close that he could clearly see the dark red tear moles in the corners of her eyes, and... The ripples hidden in the depths of those ancient eyes without waves.
The child in front of him didn't speak, but Lin Qingyan could feel his little hand tightening the corners of her clothes even harder, just agree.
After that, Lin Qingyan checked again, and after confirming that there were really no other living people, she and Shen Chi worked together to bury the corpses, which could be regarded as letting them be buried in peace.
......
A few days later, the Yunliu Sect.
The misty Immortal Mountain, all the way the sword flew over, there was a verdant forest underneath, although the weather was still a little cold, but the mountain range where the Yunliu Sect was located had already shown a vibrant scene.
Is this where the immortal cultivators are?
Shen Chi stood on the flying sword, in front of Lin Qingyan, and grabbed the corner of her clothes tightly to stand firmly.
Due to long-term malnutrition, he appeared to be much smaller than his peers, only reaching Lin Qingyan's waistline, and his complexion was slightly yellow.
But even so, at a glance, this child will never give people the feeling of being thin and deceitful, the twinkle in those eyes and the pursed lips make people feel as if he will turn into a wolf cub and pounce on him in the next second.
When she arrived at the gate of the sect, Lin Qingyan stopped and put away her sword, she took Shen Chi's hand and walked forward, this time she was not refused.
On the way back these days, she gets along with the child and takes care of her, although the child has not yet spoken a word to her, but no longer resists her approach.
She took Shen Chi's hand and walked, and before she had taken a few steps, she stopped, just a few meters in front of her, a white figure stood there quietly, as if she had been waiting for a long, long time.
Lin Qingyan stopped, but Bai Yu walked directly and quickly in front of her.
Lin Qingyan looked at the man in front of her, this was the first time she had really seen the characters in the book standing in front of her.
He was dressed in white, and some of his long ink-like hair was tied up by a jade crown, and the rest was draped behind him like a waterfall.
He stood quietly in front of her, even if he didn't say a word, he could not be ignored, as if such a person was born to be the desire of all people.
Looking at Bai Yu, who was as gentleman as jade in front of him and gentle and square, Lin Qingyan understood why Bai Yu was the first person she wanted to marry in the minds of righteous female cultivators in "Killing Immortals".
"Qingyan," Bai Yu smiled softly at Lin Qingyan, stripped away the alienation from others in the past, and said softly, "You have been on this trip for a long time, have you encountered any dangers on the way, have you ever been injured?"
As he spoke, he stretched out his hand as if he wanted to touch Lin Qingyan's head, but as if he remembered something, there was a moment of gloom on his face, and he finally put his hand down.
"No, it's just..." Lin Qingyan shook his head, stopped talking, and looked at the little Shen Chi on the side.
Only then did Bai Yu notice that there was another child following Lin Qingyan.
Seeing Shen Chi's hand tightly gripping the corner of Lin Qingyan's clothes, his eyebrows furrowed for a moment, but they quickly returned to their original state.
"Qingyan, what is this?" Bai Yu looked at Shen Chi and asked, the child in front of him was small and thin, although his appearance had not yet grown, but his eyebrows and eyes were very exquisite, and he could vaguely glimpse the elegance of growing up.
Shen Chi saw Bai Yu looking at him, his hand couldn't help but tighten the corners of Lin Qingyan's clothes, and his eyes exuded a thick hostility.
He didn't know why, obviously this person looked gentle, but he just couldn't help it, couldn't help but hate this person.
Seeing him talking to her, she ignored herself, and felt very uncomfortable, she, did she still care about him?
"Senior brother, this is the ...... I learned from" Lin Qingyan faced Bai Yu's puzzled gaze, so he had to tell the matter from beginning to end, but omitted the injured part of the original owner.
"In this case, there is no problem, look at his qualifications..."Bai Yu stretched out his hand to touch Shen Chi to see his qualifications, but Shen Chi took a step back and dodged his hand.
"I've tested it and it's very qualified. In order to avoid Bai Yu's embarrassment, Lin Qingyan quickly spoke.
She glanced at Shen Chi, but saw that he was still pursing her lips, her face was indifferent, but she sighed low in her heart.
Bai Yu didn't care about Shen Chi's evasion, he just smiled, led the two of them to the Yunliu Hall, and said as he walked, "So, Qingyan, whose apprentice do you want him to be?"
Lin Qingyan was slightly stunned, and the next second it was back to normal, who should she find to be this child's master? She also thought about this question, but according to this child's character, who are she willing to get close to...
She didn't notice that after Bai Yu asked this sentence, Shen Chi suddenly looked up at her, with an almost crazy paranoia in his eyes.
If it weren't for her, then... He would not choose anyone, it was her, who reached out to him from the clouds, and said that he would pull him out of the mire.
Then, except for her, no one else, there is no more!
As long as it's her, it's only her, and it can only... It's her!
With more force in his hand, Shen Chi grabbed the corner of Lin Qingyan's clothes tightly, as if in this way, he grabbed her whole person.
He grabbed the corner of his clothes, like a drowning man grasping the last straw, and tried his best, but he refused to let go.
"Uncles and uncles," Bai Yu smiled and said to the group of Yunliu Sect elders who were circling around Shen Chi in front of him, "How is it?"
"This kid's qualifications are really good. ”
"Yes, yes, it's been a long time since we've had a new seedling from the Yunliu Sect. ”
"Well, cultivate well, maybe in the future, our Yunliu Sect will have another genius. ”
"Ahem, it's true that we haven't accepted apprentices for a long time..."
Shen Chi stood quietly in the middle of this group of people, watching them say one sentence to the left and one sentence to the right, and his heart was very irritable.
He cast his eyes on Lin Qingyan, who was a few steps away from him, and saw her looking at this side with an indifferent face, her eyes as clear as ever.
The irritability in Shen Chi's heart became even stronger, his lips pursed even tighter, and even his small hands couldn't help but clench into fists.
Just after he entered this hall, the group of people gathered around, and before he could react, he felt that the group of people was groping all over him, and she was so far away from him.
(Lin Qingyan: It's not far, it's just a few steps!)
"Why don't you do this, boy, how about you enter my Yunpan Peak?" a white-bearded old man smiled kindly at Shen Chi.
When Shen Chi heard this, he didn't pay attention to it, he just quietly looked at Lin Qingyan who was standing not far away, his eyes were vague but stubborn, he was waiting, waiting for her to speak, he hoped that she could speak.
"Yo, boy, it's pretty cold!" The white-bearded old man bumped into a wall here with Shen Chi, and he was not annoyed, but just stroked his beard and smiled.
"Hey, old fellow, can you do it? I'll try!" A few people on the side were eager to try.
......
As a result, these people took turns to fight, none of them hit a wall, and Shen Chi never gave them a look from beginning to end.
There was a grumpy person who couldn't help it, "This little rabbit cub doesn't say a word, it's clear that he doesn't want to join our sect, it's really..."
But there were attentive people who found something, and Liu Wu, the female peak master of Cloud Mist Peak, suddenly laughed, causing everyone to look at her in confusion.
Liu Wu hooked his lips, his eyes flashed with a hint of laughter, but his tone was very sad, "Alas, you guys, don't bother, where are the children unwilling?" He is obviously very willing, you see, he clearly already has a heart, I didn't see his eyes glued to Qing Yan's body, but he never left for a moment!"
Hearing this, everyone looked back and found that it was indeed the case.
Liu Wu looked at Shen Chi, who had been unresponsive, and finally reacted under her words, his entire earlobe was red and dripping blood, and his heart was full of suffrage, hum, little brat, who told you not to give face to the old lady just now.
No one noticed that Bai Yu, who had been standing on the side with a gentle face, had a frown on his frowns and a flash on his face when he heard these words.
The topic was pulled to himself all of a sudden, and Lin Qingyan, who had been watching the play obediently with a blank face, was momentarily confused.
But looking at Shen Chi's burning eyes that looked at her, she suddenly felt a little weak.
Yes, she knew that he had been watching her, but she still pretended not to see it, she didn't want to accept the apprentice, because she remembered the ending of the original owner accepting the apprentice in the original book.
But... , Lin Qingyan's thoughts suddenly turned, she looked at the child in front of her, his eyes looked at her motionlessly, and there was unreserved trust and... Full of touching expectations!
Since Qingyan accepted the male protagonist as an apprentice in the original book, then the male protagonist will definitely go to the Yunliu Sect to cultivate immortals in the future, she doesn't have an apprentice now, and if she doesn't accept it now, she will have to accept it in the future.
As... , Lin Qingyan looked at Shen Chi, her thoughts turned a thousand times, she made a decision, she just took a step towards Shen Chi, but when she saw Shen Chi's eyes light up, she ran directly to her side and hooked her hand obediently.
Lin Qingyan was slightly stunned, then bent down to look at Shen Chi, his indifferent voice dyed with a hint of tenderness, "Would you like to be my apprentice?"
