It's the age of cyber, and you're still a traditional villain?

Chapter 217 The master is here, and the apprentice pays homage!
"I……"

Hearing Xu Shi's question, Pan Ling froze for a moment, and stayed where she was for a long time without making a sound.

It's not that she doesn't know the answer, but that she doesn't know how to answer, or that she doesn't want to answer.

Because out of curiosity at the time, she did experience Luo Yu's thoughts, but the result she got was completely different from what she expected.

Both her father and Uncle Xu have thoughts below the surface, which makes her a little uncomfortable, but she originally thought that brother Luo Yu would be different from them, but the same is true in his heart... The darkness hidden under the light even made Xiaoling shudder.

Why did brother Luo Yu... But even so, she deliberately skipped over him just now, trying to avoid the part related to him.

This is the little girl's own selfishness. After all, Luo Yu is a very important person to her. From the bottom of her heart, she hopes that the other party is different from others. Maybe this time is just an exception?
"Tell me the answer."

Xu Shi didn't give her this chance, stared into her eyes, and asked in a low voice and earnestly.

"Brother Luo Yu, he, he, he..."

Pan Ling couldn't resist his tone, she said everything tremblingly.

Her tone was even a little mechanical, "He made it difficult for you on purpose, and still stood by, and he didn't care about those servants, he, he seemed to have it, he had it..."

"Just what?"

"...There is the idea of ​​getting rid of them..."

Miss Xiaoling completed the words in a low voice.

After hearing her finish everything intermittently, Xu Shi nodded meaningfully.

It's really the same as I estimated... After all, I still need to confirm it. After discovering that Pan Ling has this ability, he moved his mind.

And this is not difficult for him - with the blessing of "Yujing", his use of "entropy increase of evil thoughts" has long been more flexible than before. It is one aspect to be able to use it in a wide range, and it can also force others to confide in it like now.

It's hard to say how to deal with high-level "upgraders", but it's still a good idea to use it on this kind of beginners.

This kind of practice will not leave seeds, and Xu Shi doesn't want to keep them. The little girl is the daughter of a friend, so it would be too inhumane for her to do this.

...It's the seed of evil thoughts.

But it was obvious that even so, Pan Ling still couldn't stand the mental shock. Although her eyes were gradually regaining clarity, she collapsed on the stone as if she had exhausted her strength, panting heavily, and seemed to have difficulty breathing.

After a while, she finally calmed down.

"Wow, woohoo..."

But after returning to normal, she couldn't help crying, "No, it shouldn't be like this, everyone... woo, I don't want to..."

She didn't completely lose consciousness, and she still knew what she had just done. It was also a cruel thing for her to tell the dark side of the person she yearned for.

The more Miss Xiaoling cried, the more sad she became.

Xu Shi just watched all this silently, and when she was exhausted from crying, he returned to her side again.

"It's sad, isn't it?"

He helped Pan Ling up and asked bluntly.

"Um……"

Pan Ling nodded weakly, with a small complaint in her tone, "It's all, it's you..."

If you hadn't deliberately exposed my scars, I wouldn't have become like this.

In fact, her current mood is very contradictory. She is quite tired in the de-stressed state, and she really wants to rest on Xu Shi's body for a while.

But when she thought of what Uncle Xu had done to her just now, she had some instinctive resistance and resistance.

"But you already knew all this, didn't you?"

Xu Shi didn't care about her attitude, just continued to read calmly.

"You, what do you mean..."

His tone made Pan Ling feel a little guilty for no reason, and asked in a whisper.

"You know what your Brother Luo Yu thinks of me, right?"

Xu Shi explained, "Coincidentally, I also know... Then since I know that he is going to harm me, do you still think there is something wrong with my actions?"

"..."

Miss Xiaoling was silent.

She couldn't refute Xu Shi's words. Even her father had taught her since she was a child to fight back when she was wronged. From this perspective, is there something wrong with his actions?no problem!
But she still plucked up her courage and said, "Well, even if this is the case, don't you need to..."

"Don't be so cruel?"

Xu Shi showed a smile, "Sit down and have a good chat with Yan Yue, then you can resolve all conflicts and hold hands to eat fruit?"

"How can it be so simple... Isn't that what we were doing before? Did it work?"

"..."

Pan Ling didn't speak vulgar words, she could tell that Xu Shi was saying that her thoughts were too naive in disguise.

She actually feels it herself, but why can't she...

When he was struggling, Xu Shi suddenly stretched out his hand and squeezed her face hard twice.

"pain!"

Miss Xiaoling subconsciously called out, "What are you doing, Uncle Xu?!"

These two strokes were not a joke, Xu Shi really exerted his strength, and seeing her cheeks were a little swollen.

"I just want to bully you, is there a problem?"

Xu Shi looked indifferent, "Or...are you angry?"

Pan Ling really wanted to say that of course she was angry, and pinched you twice for no reason, are you not angry?
But after realizing what kind of person Xu Shi was, she didn't dare to really say that, she just rubbed her cheeks aggrievedly, and shook her head slightly, "Yeah, no..."

"Really do not have?"

Xu Shi jokingly said, "Then shall I pinch it a few more times? It will look better if it is more symmetrical."

"...I'm really not angry."

Pan Ling unconsciously moved back, "But, but Uncle Xu, don't pinch me..."

"Misunderstanding, little sister Xiaoling." Xu Shi laughed.

"Only, no..."

Miss Xiaoling subconsciously denied it, but suddenly realized something, and stared at him with wide eyes.

"You can be inconsistent sometimes, right?"

Xu Shi said seriously, "Like now... Since you have it yourself, isn't it normal for others to have it?"

Pan Ling blinked her eyes, as if... Really?

"Everyone has some dirty little secrets in their hearts, sister Xiaoling."

Xu Shi smiled and sighed, "The only difference is more or less... Your brother Luo Yu is also human, so it's normal for him to behave like this, isn't it?"

"Then, then you..."

Pan Ling bit her lip.

"Of course I do. If I really want to say it, the darkness in my heart may be much more than that of ordinary people."

Xu Shi said generously, "Of course, I treat your father as a friend, so you don't have to worry about what I think about you."

"I, I'm not worried..."

"Don't worry, thank you for your trust."

Xu Shi smiled happily, "But what I want to say is that you shouldn't let your abilities become your burden."

"Hey?"

"You can feel what's going on in other people's hearts, and that's an amazing ability."

Xu Shi said seriously, "So you should learn how to face all this correctly."

He could see clearly that the little girl's fundamental heart disease was that she felt that there was too much negative energy around her. It was a bad feeling that everyone was in the same way and the other was in the back.

In a sense, this is also a complication of her promotion ability.

The conflict that day was not the main problem, at most it was an inducement, or the fuse, after all, her brother Luo Yu was involved, otherwise she would not have the courage to come to her.

"Then, can you teach me how to face it?"

These words really aroused Pan Ling's interest, so she hurriedly asked.

"Well... I can only give you some advice?"

After thinking for a while, Xu Shi said, "For example, if you don't have anything to do with you, you can deal with it calmly, or if they don't exist, but you have something to do with you, you can also deal with them in advance according to the other party's thoughts, so you won't suffer any disadvantage."

That's right, people with the ability to read minds will still be plotted against, and it would be too embarrassing to say it.

"Of course, it's also necessary to exercise and improve your own ability. You shouldn't be able to control it at will now? If you can retract it freely, you can turn off the ability at ordinary times, so that you can easily filter out a lot, right?"

"Uh-huh."

Miss Xiaoling nodded again and again, Uncle Xu's method sounds very feasible.

But she still has another question, "Then Uncle Xu, tell me... In this world, is there really no one who doesn't have a secret in his heart?"

"Maybe there will be, like a newborn baby?"

Xu Shi half-jokingly said, "But such people are a minority after all. I haven't met them before, and you probably haven't either... So when you meet them, take it as a surprise. Most people have secrets in their hearts."

"Oh."

Pan Ling responded, and the entanglement and sadness on her face faded a lot.

"Is it more comfortable in your heart?"

Xu Shi couldn't help but patted her head.

"Ah."

Miss Xiaoling didn't dodge, and gradually smiled.

The truth is that she never thought that things would turn out like this, but it is undeniable that after listening to Xu Shi's enlightenment, she did feel a sense of enlightenment.

Because this is the first time she has had a heart-to-heart with someone else, um?Before this, she had never shared her secrets with others, so naturally no one would relieve her boredom.

At most, one person can find a place where no one is around, find a stone or a big tree to talk about, but that kind of method can only treat the symptoms but not the root cause, it should be uncomfortable or uncomfortable.

"...Thank you, Uncle Xu, your words are very helpful to me."

She sincerely thanked Xu Shi.

"Why are you being polite? You said your father is my friend, so of course you are too."

Xiao Xu waved his hand, "Besides, I prefer to see girls laughing."

"Then, can I still come to you...to chat like this in the future?"

These words made Pan Ling sound warm, and she couldn't help asking one more question.

It's not bad to follow my sister to Auntie Xia to learn swordsmanship, but that's my sister's hobby, not hers. In comparison, Xu Shi is more attractive to her.

"if you are willing to?"

Xu Shi didn't refuse, "You don't mind if I get into trouble with you brother Luo Yu."

"No, no, no! According to you, Uncle Xu, I should... treat him normally?"

The little girl quickly shook her head, "And you can rest assured, I won't tell others."

Of course, what she said was something that could detect the darkness in Xu Shi's heart.

"It's okay to tell others, I'm not a good person in the first place."

Xu Shi didn't care, "Of course, it would be better if you didn't say anything."

"No, you really care about it, if I tell you the truth, you might spank my ass..."

Pan Ling muttered something.

Xu Shi almost fell off the rock, pinching Mama drops, feeling so clearly?
This is just C-level mind reading, right?If this rises to B or A, it will be fine? S-class is even more afraid...

"...Then you can't say it."

His narrow-minded thoughts were ruthlessly exposed. He simply changed his expression and frightened her, "You know what the consequences will be, so I don't need to tell you."

"I know, I know..."

Pan Ling obediently agreed.

"Okay, it's getting late, go home and go to sleep."

Xu Shi had a bad breath, and before she left, she still gave her a bottle of medical spray, "Remember to spray this on your face before you go back, and the swelling will subside in a few minutes...otherwise people will think that I have done something to you."

"Oh."

Miss Xiaoling replied dumbly, before she could say anything else, Xu Shi had already gone far away.

Looking at the uncle's back, she held the medicine bottle tightly, and was a little lost in thought for a while.

The main reason is that it's weird... He was lying when he said he didn't care before, but he turned his face to scare himself later, and he was also lying?

He said he was a bad guy?But he was actually bad and quite honest, it would not be an exaggeration to say that he is upright... Obviously his heart was dark, but she still felt good while chatting, and would seriously enlighten herself...

Alas, human nature is really complicated.

Picking up the spray and spraying it on her face, feeling the coolness coming from it, Pan Ling always felt that her mind was still a little messy.

It seems that I have to talk to my uncle more?

What she didn't realize was that Xu Shi's words were not completely selfish.

It's true to calm my sister Xiaoling's heart, but there is actually another meaning in his words-you brother Luo Yu is also a human being, so there is no need to myth him, right?
If the little sister can maintain such an idea, then her longing and expectation for Luo Yu will shrink a lot unconsciously.

Hey, isn't this a kind of ___?
……

Whether this is ___ is not something to say, but it is really time for Xu Shi to leave Yinsong Island.

"Brother Xu, I have arranged everything for you."

Early the next morning, Pan Cheng found him and handed him several documents.

"I want to stay on the island, so I can't go with you. These are some documents that may be used. You take them first if they are useful."

Brother Pan explained, "However, I asked Xiaomei to go with you. You are not familiar with the place. Let her be your guide. She also has a few friends in the palace. It will be more convenient then."

"Also, this is our sound-transmitting stone. Your base station hasn't been repaired yet, so let's use this link if we need anything."

"Then thank you, Brother Pan."

Xu Shi didn't expect him to arrange it so clearly, and judging by his posture, sister Xiaoling must have not complained.

"It should be."

Pan Cheng laughed, "Anyway, I'm also an island owner, and I will definitely help you where I can."

"Row."

Xu Shi was not polite, "We have to go on your boat, so Brother Pan will take care of our boat, and Xingchuan and Shanshan will stay and take care of us, so we can communicate in time if there is anything to do?"

"no problem."

Pan Cheng readily agreed, but suddenly pulled him mysteriously, "Well, Brother Xu, I still have something to tell you... This place is not suitable, so come to my house and talk about it."

"Oh?"

Xu Shi didn't react for a while, and followed him to his house.

As soon as I entered the door, I saw that the two sisters, Pan Feng and Pan Ling, were well-dressed, and the faces of the two sister-in-laws were also very serious.

"This is?"

"Well, I want my two daughters to come with you."

Pan Cheng said seriously.

"...Of course this is not a problem, why are you making such a big fight?"

Xu Shi couldn't help laughing.

"No, you didn't understand me."

Pan Cheng shook his head, "I mean, not only now, if you want to go back to your city-state in the future, can you let them go back too?"

"...Why do you have such an idea?"

Xu Shi blinked, and instantly understood his subtext, but he still had to ask, "If you want to go out to learn more, Brother Luo Yu can do it too?"

"I won't hide it from you, Brother Xu."

Pan Cheng sighed, "My original thought was the same as what you said. After a year or two, let the two of them go to Luo Yu. If it's good, they will take root in the empire."

"But I can also tell that your city-state has many great features. Among other things, those weapons surprised me, and even scared me."

"So I was thinking, should I send someone to study? Even if I know a little about your place, this seems to be a better way than going to the main city of the empire?"

"Of course I can't go away at such an old age. I don't feel at ease if I change to someone else... It just so happens that these two skinny children don't let me worry about staying at home. Why don't we just let them go?"

"I've asked them, and they are quite willing...Of course, the decision is up to you, so I asked you to ask."

Xu Shi was greatly shocked.

Should Pan Cheng be farsighted?Invisibly, he was the first to bring up the concept of "studying abroad" that shouldn't exist in this world.

It's not that he hasn't thought about these things himself, but his original idea was to talk about it slowly after seeing the royal court of the Hualan Empire, but he didn't expect Pan Cheng to take the lead.

It's not easy, Brother Pan.

"Then let me ask one more question, is Brother Pan making such a decision on behalf of the Hualan Empire? Or on behalf of your Yinsong Island?"

he asked with a smile.

"Of course it represents our Silver Pine Island. I'm just a small island owner. How can I represent the empire?"

Pan Cheng also laughed, "Or to put it a bit smaller...just for our Pan family."

There was a bit of irony in these words, obviously, he also had his own dissatisfaction with the Hualan Empire.

From this point of view, sending two daughters to study by Xu Shi's side is not only far-sighted, but also ambitious.

"Since this is the case, of course I can't refuse, we are friends."

The smile on Xu Shi's face was even bigger. He liked the straightforwardness of the other party very much. "Let me give you one more promise. No matter what happens between me and the Empire, we can maintain this kind of communication relationship between Silver Pine Island and our Night Sin City in the future. When the air route is stable, Brother Pan can also send other people to communicate with us."

The fact is that he wished that Pan Cheng would have such an idea, because he had already used this place as an outpost for his overseas expansion. Giving the other party such convenience is definitely a win-win thing.

"However, I want to remind you that it may not be easy to follow us, and you may suffer a lot."

"I'm not afraid!"

Pan Feng was the first to express his opinion, and even patted the little sister who was beside him, "Xiao Ling won't be afraid, right?"

"Uh-huh!"

Miss Xiaoling also nodded vigorously.

"That's good."

Xu Shi was very satisfied with their attitude, "Then I only have one condition."

"Brother Xu, what do you say?"

"I would like to call this relationship 'studying abroad'. Since it is a study, it must have a name."

Xu Shi smiled and shouted outside, "Worriless! Worriless Xia!"

"Come on, come on, what are you calling... What's the matter?"

Xia Xiaomao was packing his things, but he was still confused when he called him.

"Here, I found an apprentice for you."

Xu Shi pointed to Pan Feng, "From today onwards, the two of them will be regarded as a master-student relationship, what do Brother Pan think?"

"It could not be better."

Pan Cheng had no objection to this.

"Then... master, please be respected by the apprentice!"

Pan Feng has no objection anymore, the fact is that she has already regarded Xia Wuyou as her teacher these few days, what she taught herself is much more useful than what Brother Luo Yu took the time to guide.

"Ah, there's no need to kneel down so formally..."

Xia Wuyou was still not used to it, so she hurriedly helped her up, "You can just call me sister, I don't really care about that."

In fact, she wanted to complain even more, because her title was doubled, didn't she...

"Good master! Yes master!"

Pan Feng responded happily.

"And Miss Xiaoling..."

"Master, Master..."

He didn't need to say that at all, Pan Ling had already imitated her sister and bowed towards Xu Shi.

If she was asked to choose a master, of course it was Xu Shi, and she had already learned a lot from him last night.

Although she was a little afraid of Xu Shi, but generally speaking, she didn't hate him.

"It's all right now, let's get closer?"

Pan Cheng laughed loudly when he saw this, and dragged a box while speaking, "Here, since that's the case, is this considered to be the tuition fee for brother Xu?"

When I opened it, I saw that it was full of gold and silver coins.

People on Silver Pine Island don't use currency, and everyone is more used to bartering, but the main city of the empire is different. Gold, silver and copper coins are the mainstream trading method.

As the owner of the island, he would naturally have reserves.

"Brother Pan, what are you doing?"

Xu Shi waved his hand, "We are brothers and friends, so it's boring to come here."

Good guy, this is not only the first to propose the concept of studying abroad, you have already considered the gift for the teacher, right?

"It's different, one size fits all."

Pan Cheng took a tough attitude, "In the future, you will be required to take care of these two brats... Brothers are still clear about it, aren't they?"

"……Alright alright."

When Xu Shi saw this, he could only reluctantly accept it, and didn't tell him that he actually didn't lack this...

"Oh, it's finally a matter of my mind."

Pan Cheng breathed a sigh of relief, "Then, it's getting late, shall I take you aboard?"

"I'll come back more often to see my parents in the future."

The two female relatives bid farewell to their daughters reluctantly.

"Sisters-in-law, don't worry, we will have more time to communicate in the future."

Xu Shi smiled, "Not to mention anything else, I'm afraid I'll be back in a while, our base station hasn't been repaired yet."

Hearing what he said, the two mothers were relieved a lot.

"I'd better trouble you to take care of them."

Pan Cheng nodded, and shook hands with Xu Shi vigorously, "Also, Brother Xu."

"Bon Voyage!"
