Chapter Eighty-Eight: Guilty Little Gold
Just when Bai Lu was worried about his body forging elixir, Xiao Jin secretly returned to the small courtyard. It knew it was wrong to let its owner take the risk alone in a situation like yesterday's, and there were no more reasons for it.
"I don't know if the master will be angry!" Thinking that his relationship with his master was not very good, the master would not trust him even more. Xiao Jin sneaked to the door, wanting to see Bai Lu's situation, Xiao Jin felt the monstrous yin qi that was a few miles away yesterday, but he had no way to rush over at that time. "What are you doing outside, don't come in soon!" Because of the contract, even if it is hidden, Bai Lu can easily sense that the little golden snake is close enough to him.
"Oh, don't be angry when I come in. Xiao Jin said flatteringly, the soft and glutinous voice was sweet, and the person who could make the girl's heart burst easily forgive her for any crime she had committed. This is the first time Bai Lu has enjoyed Xiaojin's coquettishness.
However, Bai Lu is not someone who will easily relent.
"Say, where did you go yesterday, if it weren't for my life, the two of us would be finished yesterday. You must know that the two of us have concluded a master-servant contract, and if I die, how long do you think you can live?" said Bai Lutie with a blushing face. Although his situation yesterday was not as dangerous as the moment of life and death, such a situation should be absolutely eliminated, even if relatives go out to explain to each other, they will not disappear silently, not to mention that the two are still in a master-servant relationship.
Thinking that when he asked Zong Bailu in Tianwen that he would change the contract if he came to the Red Mansion World with him, and the two signed an equal contract, it seems that it is better not to change it now, according to Xiao Jin's temperament, if he changes the contract, I don't know if he will stab himself in the back.
"I, I didn't mean to. Xiao Jin's voice was very small, and if it weren't for Bai Lu being a cultivator, he might not have been able to hear it.
"Didn't you mean it?" said Bai Lu coolly.
"No, it's not. It was I who sensed my familiar aura in the courtyard, a bit like our Teng Snake clan, you know I haven't seen a clan since I was born, so I followed the breath to find it. However, this is my bad, I should have told you first. Thinking of the consequences if Bai Lu couldn't withstand it alone, Xiao Jin was a little afraid. At that time, it didn't think at all that Bai Lu was cultivating the fourth layer of Qi, and at that time, Bai Lu would definitely take his own strength as a killer weapon, thinking that he had the cultivation of the foundation building period, but he didn't protect her by the master's side, Xiao Jin was a little ashamed.
Bai Lu originally wanted to educate Xiaojin well, so that he could increase his memory, and he would not dare to judge himself in the future, but when he saw that he was so wrong, he was ready to change his method, at least to change the embarrassing relationship between the two of them now.
In fact, Bai Lu and Xiao Jin both know that the two are each other's important partners and want to build a good relationship with each other, but Xiao Jin is a tsundere and can't be coquettish like other pets, and Bai Lu herself is very gentle and treats people well, people who don't know each other say that Bai Lu is a good person, only after a long time of contact can you know the alienation and indifference under Bai Lu's gentle appearance. Like Old Goddess Yu, who let Bai Lu put her in her heart in just a few days, in addition to meeting their eyes and treating each other sincerely, there is also a very important reason that Old Goddess Yu is a mortal whose longevity is about to end, even if Bai Lu gives all her sincerity, Old Goddess Yu will not cause harm to Bai Lu's life.
Although it's a bit cold to say this, but since the death of the whole family because of his young and ignorant love, Bai Lu can't really intersect with people unguarded, and it makes sense to see a saying on the earth called knowing people and knowing faces but not hearts.
But Xiao Jin is different to Bai Lu, he is the only one who will not betray him, and he is a comrade-in-arms who can deliver his back. Although Xiao Jin has a bad temper and is very disobedient to discipline, these white dew are understandable, after all, he is used to being at ease, and he is a snake. You can't ask of a snake like a man.
Bai Lu was very angry about Xiao Jin's departure this time, but seeing Xiao Jin's guilty performance, Bai Lu knew that he couldn't continue to blame it or something, and took this opportunity to let it get rid of this bad habit of being comfortable and unrestrained, otherwise even if it would never betray itself again, he would not be able to trust his life to it.
"Xiao Jin, I know that you are used to being comfortable, and you don't take me as a master very seriously. Originally, I was going to leave you alone and let yourself die. But under our contractual relationship, there is no one in this world who can reassure me like you. So I decided to give you another chance and hopefully we both take advantage of it. On this road, it is very important to have someone who can accompany and support you all the way. Thankfully, we all have the opportunity to find such a person. You are a divine beast, and my talent is not bad, but who said it in the future, not all geniuses will succeed, how many monks have been rushing forward for thousands of years, but how many have ascended?"
Bai Lu's words were very reassuring, Xiao Jin had already coiled himself up, his head was lowered, and he said sullenly: "Master, you have to believe me next time." After saying that, he pretended to be dead and did not move. Bai Lu knew that this little snake that had lived for hundreds of years was thin-skinned, and he also wanted to give it space to think about it, so he stopped talking to it and took out the collection of mortal pills and looked at it.
Xiao Jin felt that the surrounding environment was quiet, secretly raised his head, and saw that Bai Lu was reading the jade slip motionlessly, so he quietly slipped to the door and waited. Xiao Jin was not untouched by Bai Lu's words just now, and his actions did bring danger to Bai Lu.
Although being a spiritual pet as a monk is a shame for a divine beast, it is not the same if it is a spiritual pet of a powerful human cultivator. Because demon beasts are born with a longer lifespan than humans, but cultivation is not easy, if there is a strong human cultivation as a backer, upgrading will also become a much easier thing. The key is that although he is a divine beast now, he has no lethality except for the venom on his body, and Bai Lu is even worse, his cultivation is still very low, and he needs his own protection.
Now this situation is like what Bai Lu said, the two trust each other wholeheartedly, but it is a win-win thing. I once thought that my prejudice against Bai Lu was gone when I was rescued by her at sea, and I also said that I would get along with her. However, if it weren't for the fact that he didn't guard her side at this crisis and let her connectivity surface, he wouldn't have found the unwillingness in his heart.
Yes, he was unwilling, so when he sensed the breath of the same clan, he hoped to meet the power of the same clan, maybe he could let Bai Lu destroy the contract and let him go, but when he hurriedly chased after him, he didn't find anything.
Do you really want to accept your fate and be Bai Lu's spiritual pet from now on, and really be willing to control all your joys, sorrows, and even life and death in the hands of one person. Yes, it is unwilling, unwilling. It knows the answer in its heart. Since Bai Lu said that he wanted a partner, then he changed the way the contract between the two was concluded and changed it to a symbiotic contract, so that he could rest assured.
