Master III

Luo Senxi coughed, "I never imagined that one day you would become like this..."

"It's not your fault?" Shen Linghan asked Luo Senxi's pulse.

Suddenly Shen Linghan frowned: "Have you been bewitched?" Luo Senxi was really taken aback: "What kind of Gu?"

Shen Linghan shook his head, "I don't know, the Gu has already merged into your blood, if you want to completely eliminate it, you need to exchange blood with your closest relatives."

"No, absolutely not." Luo Senxi shook his head and refused.

"I won't agree if you don't tell me. So let me do it." Luo Senxi was puzzled: "Why?"

"what why?"

"Why help us? Obviously we are enemies..."

Shen Linghan thought for a while and replied: "Because an old friend asked me to protect your only relative. He also asked me to save you."

Luo Senxi: "That's it?"

"Otherwise? Hurry up, I won't be able to change him when he wakes up. Really, lie down." Shen Linghan put a bucket of water beside him, and cut Luo Senxi's hand on the other side.

"After changing the blood, my blood will gradually form into blood suitable for you in the future. There may be some discomfort in the first few days."

Regardless of Luo Senxi's obstruction, Shen Linghan hung his wrist above, put Luo Senxi's blood into another wooden barrel and used spiritual power to promote absorption.

"Don't look at me like that, like I'm forcing you to be rescued." Luo Senxi stared at Shen Linghan with wide eyes, he couldn't move because of Shen Linghan's acupuncture points.

"When you get well, take Luo Sikong away. Don't look into the past, and never see it again in your life." Luo Sikong hid behind the rock, covering his mouth and weeping silently. He was wrong, really wrong.

Bai Lingyuan stumbled in from outside the cave, seeing Shen Linghan who had been bloodletted, his heart throbbing with pain.

"Respect..."

Shen Linghan responded and said: "Later, don't hug me."

Slowly, double images appeared in front of Shen Linghan's eyes, and finally fell straight into Bai Lingyuan's arms.Luo Senxi, who was lying on the side, looked in Shen Linghan's direction weakly.

Bai Lingyuan picked him up: "The Luo family, he has never owed you anything, but you can't even count the amount you owe him!"

Looking at the scarred people in his arms, Bai Lingyuan felt manic, and cursed: "I really want to kill those people."

Back in the hall, Bai Lingyuan slowly untied Shen Linghan's clothes.The clothes have been mixed together with the meat.The wound was horrible.

Bai Lingyuan wrung out the handkerchief and wiped Shen Linghan's body clean, looking at the bone-deep knife throbbing with pain.

"Master..."

Bai Lingyuan took out the medicine powder, shook it on Shen Linghan's body, and wrapped it with cloth strips.After everything was done, Bai Lingyuan stopped and leaned against Shen Linghan exhaustedly.

In the thick ink-like sky, not even a single starlight appeared.In this quiet night, only the master and apprentice depended on each other.

But in a family's home in Liujiazhuang, the candlelight was still flickering.There was a knock on the door.

Chen Qingran opened the door, and there was a man standing at the door.The man is wearing a bamboo hat and Taoist robes.He smiled and said, "Master Dao, I'm back."

Chen Qingran invited people in: "Why did Mr. Nan come back so late?"

Nan Chujiu's face was pale, and his hands kept shaking.Chen Qingyan thought that he was cold, so he said: "You sit down first, I will light a fire for you."

Chen Qingran got up and picked up a few dry branches and a bundle of straw, "Something must have happened today." Nan Chujiu nodded noncommittally.

Chen Qingran sighed: "A few days ago you bled too much and ran to my place, and now you are also running to me when you are cold. Does the young master have no family?"

"It doesn't matter if I have it or not. Anyway, no one cares about my life or death. In their eyes, I'm just a waste." Nan Chujiu's face quietly turned a little bloody under the reflection of the fire.

Chen Qingran also sat down, comforting: "No matter what happens, it is best that you are safe and sound. You don't have to worry about how outsiders see you, you just need to know how you are."

Finally Nanchu said with wine: "Taoist, can I live with you?"

Chen Qingran nodded: "Yes. But I have to travel around."

Nan Chujiu approached the flame to seek some warmth. "My brother died today, but my father's second brother is still smiling. I can't help but feel the loneliness in the world. Only you may find a little warmth here."

Chen Qingran was flustered, and he didn't know how to comfort Nan Chujiu.After all, he was taken in by his master since he was a child and never went down the mountain, so he doesn't know these people's ways of the world.

"Then you can make this place your home."

Nanchu Jiuxi felt that Chen Qingran's panic was so interesting, "Taoist, what's your name?"

Chen Qingran said with a straight face: "Chen Qingran, a disciple of Tianzong Daoist from the Tianzong sect."

Nanchujiu cupped his hands and said, "Nanchujiu."

"know."

Nan Chujiu smiled and said, "Then, does Taoist Master Qingran have any wine here? In such a cold day, we must have some wine to warm up."

Chen Qingran shook his head: "I don't have wine here. But there are wild fruits. Do you want it?"

Nan Chujiu stretched out his hand: "Yes, why don't you?" Chen Qingran nodded and took out a cloth bag embroidered with green bamboo from his bosom, and took out a few red fruits from the cloth bag.

"Give."

Nan Chujiu grabbed a handful, and said dissatisfied: "Such a small fruit is gone in one bite."

Chen Qingran said embarrassedly: "I'm really sorry, why don't you eat all of these. I'll go find some more tonight."

Nan Chujiu thought he was joking, so he didn't care and ate it on his own.He also praised a few times from time to time.

After eating satisfactorily, he will naturally feel sleepy, so he said: "I fell asleep."

Nan Chujiu went to the pile of straw and fell asleep leaning on his arms.Seeing that Nan Chujiu was fast asleep, Chen Qingran gently pushed open the wooden door and walked out facing the cold moonlight.

It is true that the nights are extremely cold.Chen Qingran rubbed his arms and continued walking, and finally arrived at a tree.

Looking at the red fruit on the tree, Chen Qingran smiled with satisfaction.Just as he was about to pick the fruit, a familiar voice sounded, "When will Qingran go back?"

Turning around was Qian Yixuan who was also dressed in white.His black and thick hair was tied up with bamboo hairpins, and his body smelled like wood, which was different from musk deer.

Qian Yixuan said: "Master is very worried about you. He specifically told me to bring you back safely."

Chen Qingran shook his head: "Senior brother, Qingran doesn't want to go back. Qingran saw many bleak scenes and met many sad people when he went down the mountain this time. Qingran can't just let it go. So I hope senior brother understands."

Qian Yixuan said helplessly: "You are really... the master has already said that we don't need to pay attention to these things, why do you still decide on your own..."

"Senior brother. You know me. If you decide on one thing, you will do it regardless. So Qingran will not ignore it."

Seeing Chen Qingran's firm attitude, Qian Yixuan couldn't persuade him anymore, he just said: "Then protect yourself well, don't save everyone. What if it's someone who harbors disgust?"

Chen Qingran nodded, "Understood."

Qian Yixuan turned around and used Qinggong to leave.It was already morning when Chen Qingran returned to the house.

Warm sunlight came in through the crack of the door, and Chen Qingran opened the door wider.

Seeing that the two of them hadn't woken up yet, Chen Qingran scooped out a bowl of rice from the rice bag and cooked two bowls of porridge.

The first one to wake up was Qian Qian, she was a little girl rescued by Chen Qingran in Liujiazhuang, she had no father or mother.Young, about five or six years old.Seeing that she was pitiful, she took it with her.

Qian Qian smelled the rice fragrance and said happily: "Daddy, it smells so good!"

Chen Qingran put the porridge on the table, "Come." Qian Qian ran over to sit on the bench and obediently drank the porridge.

Chen Qingran saw the human being who had already woken up on the straw pile and said, "You can eat too. It will be cold later."

Nan Chujiu turned over and looked at the two bowls of porridge on the table: "Where's yours?"

Chen Qingran took out the fruits picked last night, "I'll just eat some of this." After that, he distributed a bag of fruits to the two, while he only kept a few.

Nan Chujiu pushed the bowl in front of Chen Qingran, "I'm not hungry, you eat. You're full with those fruits from last night." As soon as the words finished, Nanchu Jiu's stomach growled.

Nan Chujiu explained with a blushing face: "Diarrhea, diarrhea." After saying that, he ran away in a hurry.Chen Qingran shook his head with a smile, put the bowl of porridge into the pot and covered it with a lid.

Qian Qian looked outside the door and said: "Father, is that the newly married mother of Daddy?" Chen Qingran reckoned that it was because of Nan Chujiu's loose hair that Qian Qian mistook him.

When Nan Chujiu came back, he saw that Chen Qingran was peeling peanuts, "Daoist Qingran, can I borrow some money to buy altar wine?"

Chen Qingran nodded and took the purse at his waist to Nan Chujiu: "Bring some food and rice along the way, thank you."

Nan Chujiu went out with a vegetable basket on his shoulders, but was stopped by Qian Qian. "Mother, can I bring you strings of candied haws for Qian Qian?"

Nan Chujiu's eyes widened, his face full of horror, "Mother?!" Nan Chujiu quickly tied up her hair and left after realizing it.

Chen Qingran said to Qian Qian, "I want to call you Brother Nan, not Mother."

Qian Qian nodded half understanding. "Is your mother's name Brother Nan?" Chen Qingran didn't explain too much about this matter.

Nan Chujiu came to the town with a purse, and the town was bustling.The cries of hawking come and go.

Nan Chujiu came to a vegetable stand, picked out a few cabbages that looked fresh and green, and asked, "How much?"

I just heard the man say: "Fifteen coins each. Do you want the guest? The best cabbage." Nan Chujiu felt that he could take out fifteen coins and give it to the vendor.

Nan Chujiu carried the cabbage and went on to the next one, and finally got all the things he wanted to buy.When I was walking back, I happened to meet a candied haws seller, and I remembered what Qian Qian said, so I said, "How much?"

The peddler smiled and said, "A string of two coins. How many strings do you want?"

Nanchujiu held up three fingers, "Three skewers." The vendor took down three bunches of red candied haws and handed them to Nanchujiu, "Master, take it."

Nan Chujiu hummed happily and bounced back, and when he was about to get home, he shouted, "Daoist Qingran, I'm back! Today's cabbage is fresh."

Chen Qingran poured a glass of water and went out to greet Nan Chujiu, took the cabbage and rice and said, "Thank you."

Nan Chu took the water and drank it all in one gulp. After quenching his thirst, he was naturally refreshed.
