I adopted my grandfather

Zhaoyang unfolded the picture scroll and looked at it, his face darkened immediately: "What exactly do you want me to see?"

Two juniors next to him came up and pointed at the scroll:

"This is a painting of a person, right? Look, here is hair, and this is probably clothes."

"Is it male or female?"

"It's good to be able to see that it's a person. You still want to distinguish between men and women? But with such long hair, maybe it's a woman."

Zhaoyang's face was still ugly, and he said, "Feiquan, do you just want to tell me that this snake demon's painting skills are terrible?"

"Of course not." Seeing his brother's complexion, Fei Quan quickly pointed to a line of small characters beside him and said, "The point is not the painting, but these few words."

In the upper right corner of this painting, there are eight words written in lines: "Wish to speak and think of a son, day and night." Compared with this terrible painting, the words on it are really well written, with flowing clouds and flowing water, faintly The meaning of dust.

Zhaoyang's heart skipped a beat: "You mean, who is this snake demon in love with?"

Feiquan clapped his hands and laughed, "Senior Brother Mingjian, this is exactly what I mean."

Zhaoyang snorted: "Students who have been in the door for less than five years and have not achieved success in cultivation, they should not talk about love, and they should not form a Taoist couple privately. This snake demon is so bold that he ignores the rules of the sect! Could it be because of the master's favor? Is it possible to be lawless? It’s a pity that I don’t know who the person in the painting is.”

"We don't need to know who the person in the painting is." Feiquan rolled up the painting again with a smile, and said, "Just present this scroll to Master, and let the snake demon explain it by himself!"

"What do you have to say?" Youtan gently put the scroll on the desk, then turned around and asked Mo Li who was kneeling on the ground.

Although Mo Li was ordered to kneel down, she still had an indifferent expression on her face, and chuckled lightly: "I don't know when a painting can become evidence, big brother, I think you don't call 'Zhaoyang' 'Come on, let's just call it 'Catching the Wind'. The ability to catch wind and shadows is truly unmatched."

Zhaoyang said angrily, "Then do you dare to tell who is in the painting?"

Seeing Youtan's gaze also looking towards him, Mo Li said, "Why don't you dare?" He smiled at Youtan, "The one I drew is Master."

As soon as these words came out, it was beyond everyone's expectation, even Youtan showed a look of surprise.But looking at the painting again, although the face is blurred, there is a faint shadow of Utan in the hair and clothing.However, the overall level of this painting is comparable to children's graffiti. If you insist on what it looks like, [-]% of it is in your mind, and the remaining [-]% is all in your brain.

Zhaoyang sneered when he heard the words: "Don't use Master as a prevarication! Let me ask you, you said that the painting is Master, what does the above 'Wishing words think of sons, day and night' mean?"

Mo Li opened his eyes wide, with an innocent expression on his face: "It means that I think about Master every day from morning to night! I keep Master's teachings in my heart all the time, and think about it every day. During this time, I feel that my cultivation is Great progress."

Zhaoyang said angrily, "You're talking nonsense!"

"What kind of nonsense do you think I am talking about, senior brother? Does it mean that I think about Master all day long? But senior brother is not a roundworm in my stomach. How do you know if I think about Master or not? As for whether my cultivation level has advanced There is an improvement..." Mo Li smiled at this point, and said provocatively, "Didn't the big brother pass the test during the martial arts competition today?"

Zhaoyang was trembling with anger: "You..."

"Mo Li." You Tan finally spoke at this moment, "Don't be rude to senior brother."

Mo Li hurriedly turned around and saluted Zhao Yang, and said, "I have no other problems, but I like to tell the truth, senior brother, please forgive me."

Zhaoyang was so angry that he turned his head away and ignored him.

Youtan said: "Zhaoyang, Mo Li has only been incarnated for three years now, and his wild nature is still there. As a senior brother, you should take care of him more. As for the inscription on this painting, he is illiterate, so he probably misunderstood it." It's just a misunderstanding."

Zhaoyang said anxiously: "Master, you must not be fooled by his clever words..."

Youtan waved his hand: "It's too far-fetched to convict with only one painting. If it is spread out in the future, others will criticize me for being too strict with my disciples. Go back first, this matter ends here .”

Seeing that Master has been protecting Mo Li from the beginning to the end, Zhao Yang was very angry, but he had no choice but to salute and quit with a few juniors.

Out of the yard, Feiquan said: "I was fooled by him so lightly, but don't blame Master for favoring him, this flattery is so loud, why do you think about Master's teachings from morning to night, and you are a little thin-skinned?" People really can’t say it.”

The two juniors followed behind.

One said: "Isn't it? Among the senior brothers, he runs to the master's place the most frequently, wishing to follow the master all day long."

Another said: "Don't we want to follow Master and listen to more teachings? But Master is so majestic and dignified, everyone dare not get close to him, only this inhuman monster is always posting up recklessly."

The more I talked about this, the more I felt aggrieved, Feiquan sighed: "But it's also strange, Master is indeed more pleasant to him than to us."

A few people walked back while talking, and suddenly found that the senior brother had disappeared.Looking back, Zhaoyang stopped at some point, staring at Youtan's yard in a daze.

Seeing that Youtan had sent Zhaoyang and the others away, Mo Li asked, "Can I get up now?" She was trying to get up from the ground with a snickering face, but was swept away by Youtan with a cold glance, and she was so frightened. Dare to move.

Youtan pointed to the picture scroll and said: "In the past three years, I have taught you to read and write. I know better than anyone else how you have progressed. These eight characters are so simple, you can't possibly misunderstand their meaning. Tell me to draw Who's in there?"

Mo Li blinked and asked, "Are you unhappy? Because I have someone I like, so you are unhappy?" His cheeks were flushed, showing inexplicable excitement, and he suddenly stood up from the ground, leaned over In front of Utan, "Is it?"

Probably the distance between the two of them was too close, which made Youtan feel a little uncomfortable, his upper body was slightly tilted backwards, and he said: "You know the rules I set..."

Mo Li completely ignored his words, and said directly: "If I tell you that I am not lying, the person in the painting is really you, do you believe it?"

Youtan froze for a moment, and frowned slightly: "What do you mean?"

"Wishing to think of son, day and night, the person in my painting is you, and I always think of you in my heart!" Mo Li looked at You Tan, with tenderness in his eyes, with indescribable affection.

However, Youtan only felt that he was going to be drowned by this pool of water. He took a step back and shouted: "What nonsense are you talking about? Presumptuous!"

Mo Li was stunned for a moment, and said blankly: "Don't you like me?"

Youtan's face darkened, he flicked his sleeves coldly, and said: "I only have feelings for you as a master and apprentice, don't let me hear such absurd words in the future."

Mo Li never expected that what she confessed in return would be such a cold and heartless reprimand!He couldn't believe it, and said: "Don't deceive me with the relationship between master and apprentice, you are different from other disciples! You taught me to read and write yourself, and allowed me to joke and joke with you. It's not like that at all..."

Youtan sighed: "That's because you are different from them..."

Moli's eyes had just sparked some hope, but they were shattered by Youtan's following words: "They are born as human beings, and they know the distinction between superior and inferior, master and apprentice since childhood. But you are a mysterious snake, born out of ethics. In general, I naturally have to be more patient and tolerant towards you. Since I helped you transform into a human form, I naturally have a responsibility to you. I……"

"Stop talking!" Mo Li suddenly covered his ears and shouted.His mind was in turmoil, and it took him a while to unravel Utan's words, "So you treat me well and special to me because I'm a snake demon! You've done so much, you can't It's just to tame me, to show that your Taoism is boundless, isn't it?"

Seeing that his eyes were red and his expression was almost crazy, Youtan couldn't help frowning: "It's not taming, but I want to help you achieve greatness."

"The Great Dao!" Mo Li grinned, with a sad expression on his face, "Then have you ever asked me if I don't care about the Dao?"

"Proving cause and effect, becoming the Dao, is the highest state that a monk pursues in his life..."

"That's enough, I don't want to listen!" Mo Li stared straight at You Tan, "I just ask you, do you have anything for me in your heart..."

"No!" As if he was afraid that he would say those two words, Youtan quickly interrupted him, turned around, and said coldly, "If you still want to maintain the distinction between master and apprentice with me, you can take those Erase all the thoughts that shouldn't be there, and I can pretend that nothing happened."

Mo Li stared at his back, almost unable to recognize this person.He had seen this person's back countless times, but for the first time, he found that this back was so indifferent and decisive!He suddenly yelled and rushed out.

It has been three days in a row, and Mo Li has not returned to the sect, but is wandering in the Liao Hua Mountain behind the Xiyue Sect.His mind was in chaos, sometimes when he thought of Utan's ruthless determination, he felt heartbroken; sometimes he recalled the details of the two of them getting along, and a tender feeling came to his heart.He hated You Tan's hard heart, and hated himself for not letting go; he was annoyed at You Tan's deliberate gentleness like a trap, and he also blamed himself for blinding his own wishful thinking.All these emotions intertwined in his heart day and night, making him physically and mentally exhausted and exhausted.

It wasn't until that night that he returned to his residence in a daze, but he didn't know that someone was already waiting for him at the door.

Seeing that it was the elder brother Zhaoyang, he remembered that everything happened because of this person, he felt annoyed, and without saying hello, he directly bypassed the other party and walked to the door.

Zhaoyang said, "Slow down."

Mo Li turned her head and looked at him coldly: "Are you here to fight with me? You are not my opponent now."

Facing his provocation, Zhaoyang didn't show any emotion at the time, but said, "I've thought about what happened that day for a long time?"

"Then you want to understand?"

"I figured it out." Zhao Yang nodded, took a step forward suddenly, and stood face to face with Mo Li, "Actually, you are not lying, the person in the painting is Master! You monster, how dare you have unreasonable thoughts about Master !"

Having said that, he quickly struck out with a palm, but was dodged sideways by Mo Li.

Mo Li frowned: "What do you want?"

"Let's go! Leave Xiyuezong!" Zhaoyang gritted his teeth and said, "You are a rebellious evildoer who ignores human relations. If you stay in Xixiyuezong for a day, you will be a disaster sooner or later! I should have told the world about your scandal, but I'm also afraid that Master's name will be shamed, and the reputation of Xiyuezong will be damaged! As long as you still have a little conscience, and think of Master's reinvented virtues for you, you should leave here as soon as possible and get far away!" After saying that, He transformed into a sword in his palm and stabbed at Mo Li.

Naturally, Mo Li couldn't sit still, so the two of them fought together.

These two are the top masters of Xiyue Sect other than Youtan, this fight seemed to be fighting for life, and the movement and movement alarmed other people in the sect.Many disciples came to watch. They saw that the two men were fighting fiercely, so they didn't dare to persuade the fight, so they went to ask the master.

Youtan quickly rushed over, seeing this messy scene, his face quickly sank, and he shouted: "Stop!"

When he called out, the two of them naturally stopped.

Since apprenticeship, it was the first time for all the disciples to see Youtan so angry, he looked cold and shouted: "You two are openly fighting privately in the sect, what a shame!"

Zhaoyang had always been in awe of his master, so he hurriedly bowed down to plead guilty: "I have nothing to do with this disciple, please master to punish me."

Seeing that Mo Li was still standing there with a big grin, You Tan ignored his own words, and became more and more annoyed: "Mo Li, you haven't returned for several days, and after you came back, you offended senior brother. Such reckless behavior, don't tell me that my Xiyue Sect Is it too much for you?"

"Could it be that my Xiyuezong can't tolerate you anymore?" As soon as these words reached his ears, Mo Li felt as if someone had hit his chest hard.He suddenly understood that there was indeed no place for him here!It's not that he doesn't want to stay, but that no one wants him to stay anymore!

He looked at You Tan, the man was so close to him, yet out of reach.Even if you take out this heart and hold it in front of him, you will be ruthlessly knocked down by him, right?He still thinks that he has ruined his reputation...

Yes, who would take a basilisk's admiration as something to boast about?I'm afraid that thinking about it will feel like a kind of humiliation!Just like these disciples of the Moon Cleansing Sect, when they heard that they had become fellow disciples with a snake demon, they couldn't hide their disgust.He thought that Utan was different, and he didn't treat him as a "heterogeneous". Because of Utan, he could not care about those cold eyes. It turns out... Thinking of this, Mo Li suddenly laughed.What a fool!That's just a soft way to tame the alien!

All the disciples looked at him in shock, wondering why he didn't apologize to the master at this time, why he still laughed?Could it be crazy!

Mo Li laughed a few times, stopped suddenly, and said loudly: "That's right, the Xiyue Sect can't keep me anymore! I was born to raise a black snake, to act willfully, to live freely, to roam the world, what a shame!" Happy and happy! Since joining your Xiyue Sect, there have been many shackles for no reason. I can't do what I should do, love what I love, follow the rules every day, and dare not take a step beyond the thunder. What's the point of such a day? I fed up!"

With a move with his right hand, he transformed into a sword in his palm and threw it in front of Youtan.Turning around, letting the tears roll down in the dark night, he said loudly: "From now on, I will be the black snake Moli, and have nothing to do with the Moon Washing Sect!"

He took a deep breath, jumped onto the courtyard wall, and disappeared into the vast night after a few ups and downs.
