Chapter 44: Trouble
Fu Yan's voice was extremely stern, and everyone trembled physically and mentally. Tuchen and Lingzhi came out from behind the door of the temple and slowly walked into the Pujiao Zhai.
"Who are you, and why are you sneaking around outside the temple!?"
Lingzhi pursed her lips and jumped up and down, looked at Fu Yan and whispered: "Uncle Fu Yan, I haven't seen you for almost three months, do people miss you...... He is Tuchen, a disciple of the old man Tao, Xinna. ”
"Tao Weng Xinna's disciple?" Fu Yan was slightly surprised, stared at Tu Chen, and waved his hand to the two: "You girl has a sweet mouth, go and stand to the side, don't disturb the other disciples to study." ”
Lingzhi nodded with a smile, said "Thank you, uncle" and turned around and pulled Tuchen to the side.
Except for facing Lingzhi, Fu Yan always had that stern expression on his face, as if he was about to hit someone at any time.
He glared at Mo Erha fiercely and continued to teach: "There is a mark on the back of the neck of the demon clan, which is the biggest difference between humans and demons. As he spoke, he held up the previous drawing board: "This is the pattern, because it is similar to the lotus flower, so we call it the Black Lotus Seal." No matter how high its cultivation is, how powerful its transformation is, even the Demon Lord has this mark. And the black lotus seal is the symbol of the demon race, and it is imprinted into the bones, so it can't be erased and erased, and it will always be printed on the back of the neck!"
Tuchen raised his eyes and saw a blue-black pattern painted on the drawing board, as Fu Yan said, like a black lotus. The thirty-six petals are divided into three layers, with a cluster of crimson in the center, which looks a little beautiful and a little mysterious.
Lingzhi stared at the pattern with a longing expression, pursed his lips and chuckled: "What a beautiful pattern, if only I could have one......"
Half an hour later, Fu Yan finished teaching, frowned and looked at Tu Chen, and then got up to leave.
After talking to Mo Erha, Tuchen learned that Fu Yan turned out to be the hall master of the Exorcism Hall and their master.
"Senior Uncle Fu Yan came back half a month ago, and I heard from the other disciples in the hall that his temperament has become more irritable when he comes back this time, and he has a lot of worries every day, which may have something to do with the disappearance of Senior Brother Lingjiang......"
Lingzhi pouted and nodded after hearing this: "I said how do I feel that he is weird, he will bring me some gadgets when he comes back from the valley on weekdays, but this time he has nothing ......"
Mo Erha looked at the petite and cute Lingzhi, and leaned into Tu Chen's ear with a wicked smile: "Being tired of being with a little beauty all day long, life in Baicao Zhai must be very pleasant, right?"
Tuchen shrugged helplessly and didn't speak.
In the evening, back to Baicaozhai, Tuchen was sitting in his room in a daze, and Lingzhi ran in in a hurry, squatting beside him and smiling cutely: "You say, isn't that black lotus seal beautiful?"
"Black Lotus Seal?" Tuchen thought for a moment: "Is it the one that Uncle Fu Yan talked about today? It's okay, it's beautiful." ”
"Hehe...... Lingzhi laughed for a moment, then suddenly turned around and flipped up his collar: "Look!"
Tuchen raised his eyes and saw that the medical book in his hand almost fell to the ground, and his face was suddenly shocked: "You...... How did you!?......
I saw that there was a lifelike black lotus flower on the back of Lingzhi's neck, and there was a cluster of red at the center of the flower, which was exactly the same as the black lotus seal that Fu Yan talked about during the day!
Looking at Tu Chen's surprised and nervous look, Lingzhi laughed for a moment before explaining: "Oh, don't be nervous, this is painted by myself, how about it, does it look like it?"
Tuchen breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this, and said helplessly: "How can this be scribbled casually, let the master know that he will definitely punish you again!"
Lingzhi looked indifferent: "Punishment is punishment, brewing a pot of good tea can coax the old man peach to heaven." Or...... I'll draw one for you too!" she said, she took out a thin pen from her cuff, dipped it in the inkstone on the table, and jumped behind Tuchen.
Tuchen hurriedly got up and dodged, and snatched the thin pen from her hand: "No, I can't coax the master if you coax it, so let's wash it off quickly." ”
"Hmph, stingy, ignore you!hehehe......"
With that, Lingzhi got up and ran out in a hurry.
Tuchen looked at her cheerful back and shook his head helplessly, but he was also very happy in his heart.
After two months of study, the hundred herbs and most of the medical skills in Zhai were read by Tuchen, and the content was even more memorized. Every evening, he would help Tao Weng sort out the herbs picked by the other disciples and sort them on the wooden shelf. Over time, Tao Weng gave him the job with confidence.
The dream in the maple leaf forest still puzzled him, and sometimes he even wondered if the woman in the dream was Lingzhi, but every time he wanted to confirm it, he would wake up.
As the sun set, all the disciples in the valley returned, and Tuchen returned to the room after sorting out the herbs as usual. Holding a copy of the "Air Cavitation Sutra", I read it intentionally or unintentionally, thinking about the Mao Hu who has not been heard from so far and his unknown life experience, and slowly closed his eyes.
After a short sleep, a dark shadow appeared outside the window, crept to the door, gently pushed open the wooden door, and jumped into the room.
Under the candlelight, the black shadow was dressed in a pale pink dress, two strands of broken hair hung down over her shoulders, and her face revealed that it was Ganoderma lucidum.
"You fell asleep while sitting?" hehe...... Lingzhi rolled his eyes, picked up the thin pen on the table and wrapped it around his back, gently pulled up Tuchen's collar and was about to put down the pen but paused.
Under the moonlight, there was a black lotus mark on the back of Tuchen's neck, the petals were clear and layered, and the red dot in the middle exuded a certain bewitching aura......
"Hmph, don't let me paint for you, but I secretly painted it myself!" said Lingzhi, the corners of his mouth were slightly curled, and the thin pen raised in the air still painted......
In the early morning of the second day, Tuchen was washing, and Yu Danfan's shadow appeared in the maple forest.
Walking on the wooden bridge, Yu Danfan asked with a smile: "Tuchen, have you seen Senior Sister Lingzhi?" As soon as the words fell, his shoulder was patted by a slender hand: "Senior Brother Danfan brought me something delicious?"
Yu Danfan turned around and saw Lingzhi standing beside him, so he shook his head and smiled: "There is no good food today, I am here to inform you, and after a while, let Tao Weng go to the main hall to discuss with the valley master and the six elders about the experience of recruiting new disciples." ”
Lingzhi nodded: "I know, I'll tell Old Man Tao in a while." ”
"Okay, then it's okay, I'll go back first. After speaking, Yu Danfan turned around and wanted to leave, and Lingzhi also turned around and left.
At the moment when she turned around, her long hair swept through the air, and the black lotus mark drawn on the back of her neck happened to be exposed. Seeing this, Yu Danfan's face immediately changed, and he recited a spell and shot a fireball into the sky with his bare hands, and then took off into the air and pressed Lingzhi to the ground in the blink of an eye, and shouted: "What kind of monster are you, you dare to pretend to be Lingzhi's junior sister and break into Linggu!
Lingzhi was completely defenseless, and was pressed to the ground unable to move, so he had to shout: "Senior Brother Danfan, I ...... I'm Ganoderma lucidum......"
Tuchen was also stunned on the side, but then he understood that it must have been Yu Danfan who had seen the fake black lotus seal so he misunderstood, and hurriedly rushed over to stop Yu Danfan's palm that was about to be chopped down: "Senior brother Danfan, she is indeed Lingzhi, and the black lotus seal is painted!"
Yu Danfan was confused when he heard this, stretched out his index finger and wiped it on the black lotus mark on the back of Lingzhi's neck, looked at the black ink on his fingertips and shouted softly: "It's broken!" After that, he let go of Lingzhi and cast a spell with both hands, wanting to withdraw the fireball that had been shot out earlier.
But everything happened too fast, and now it was too late to react, and the fireball flew up into the air and scattered into five colored lights, and at the same time made a huge muffled sound like thunder.
Staring at the five colored lights that gradually spread overhead, Yu Danfan and Lingzhi said in unison: "It's over......"
