Hard to be a master

When Shen Ziliu said that he went shopping, it wasn't all an excuse.There is a small bookstore in Lin'an that likes to publish some books that are not popular in the market. Some of them are too biased in content or style and do not meet the taste of the public, and a small part of them are not well-known editors. Too low, but the work itself is interesting.Shen Ziliu came to this bookstore once before, and bought some scriptures for sale in Qingmeng Collection. Thanks to the effect of "Mr. Sui'an's special recommendation", they were very popular and sold out quickly.This time I come to Ann, just to see if there are any new ones.

Picking books is not like buying other things. Even if Shen Ziliu can see ten lines at a glance, it will take a lot of time.It was dusk when he returned to the other courtyard with a bag of books he had chosen.Both the master and the apprentice tacitly agreed not to bring forward the morning, and settled down separately after having dinner together.

The next day, everyone was in place according to Shen Ziliu's arrangement.One morning passed, calm and calm.At noon, the maid brought the food to Liu Xinhe's room. Liu Xinhe wanted to invite Shen Ziliu to have a meal together, but she looked all over the bedroom, but she couldn't see where Shen Ziliu was hiding, so she had to give up.

After lunch, Liu Xinhe gradually felt sleepy.Before that, she had been having trouble falling asleep for half a month, and even if she fell asleep, it was only a light sleep, and she would wake up with a start at the slightest disturbance.Because of the sachet given to her by Guan Jingxuan, Liu Xinhe had a rare good sleep last night. Today, the sachet is still hanging on her bedside. The quiet medicinal fragrance silently soothes her nerves that have been tense for a long time. Once she relaxes, Tiredness intensifies.In addition, there were trees planted in front and back of Liu Xinhe's bedroom, which blocked a large area of ​​skylight. When the door and windows were closed, the light in the room dimmed, which made people sleep well.

Originally, Liu Xinhe was concerned that there was a man in the room, so she held on for a while, but she couldn't bear the torrent of drowsiness, so she put down the curtain and lay down on the bed.

Not long after Liu Xinhe fell asleep, someone knocked on the door of the room.I don't know if it's because I'm too sleepy, or because the sachet is so effective, Liu Xinhe, who has always been in trouble, was not awakened by the knock on the door, and fell asleep breathing calmly.On the contrary, Shen Ziliu, who was sitting on the side of the cabinet at the end of the bed holding the invisibility formula, instantly cheered up.

"Knock-knock-knock-knock-knock."

Before waiting for a response from the people in the room, the knock on the door sounded again without haste.

Shen Ziliu was thinking to himself that although the Wutong ghost is a pervert, he is quite patient, when he heard a familiar voice outside the door.

"Xiao Liu, are you in there?"

Shen Ziliu froze for a moment, he heard that the voice was indeed Guan Jingxuan, but he did not forget that Wutong Ghost is best at imitating the appearance and voice of others, so he kept his eyes open and did not make a sound immediately, only listening to the man outside saying again: "I'm in some trouble as a teacher, can Xiaoliu come to help? It will be fine soon—"

There was some trembling in this sentence, and the speaker seemed to be enduring some pain.Shen Ziliu frowned subconsciously. After hesitating for a moment, he was still uneasy after all. He solved the invisibility formula, got up and walked to the door, raised his hand and opened the door.

The moment the bedroom door opened, the person outside the door stumbled into Shen Ziliu's arms with a strange fragrance.

After seeing the person in his arms clearly, Shen Ziliu's body stiffened for a moment.

Guan Jingxuan, who was disheveled, had watery eyes, an abnormal blush on his face, steaming all over his body, and a strange fragrance from his whole body.The fragrance scrambled into the nostrils of Shen Ziliu, sparing no effort to provoke his nerves, trying to pull him into the whirlpool of confusion.Although he didn't know what the fragrance was, Shen Ziliu felt that it must be some kind of charming fragrance that could move people's emotions as soon as he smelled it.

"Hmm... so uncomfortable... Xiaoliu, help me..."

Guan Jingxuan's lips were whitened by her own biting and then quickly congested, so red that it was so delicate and beautiful that it made people dream about it.He clings to Shen Ziliu and rubs against him unconsciously, as if this can relieve the discomfort in his body.

Shen Ziliu frowned even tighter. He hugged the person in his arms and asked in a deep voice, "What happened?"

Guan Jingxuan's eyes were moist, and his already trembling voice was a bit crying: "I...I don't know...a person came in just now. Before I saw it clearly, I smelled a strange fragrance, and then..."

He weakly grabbed Shen Ziliu's lapel, looked at him with dependence and longing, and murmured: "Xiaoliu...you help me...help me..."

Shen Ziliu's eyes became darker, and one hand slowly reached out towards the belt of the man in his arms.

***

When the spices in the furnace were burned out, Guan Jingxuan breathed a sigh of relief and put down the carving knife in his hand.

"Phew—it's finally finished."

After checking the sword tassel in his hand over and over again, after confirming that there was nothing missing, Guan Jingxuan took out a delicate small box from Qiankun's bag, and put the sword tassel into it neatly.

"I'll send it to Xifeng when I get back to Yangzhou. It's not too far away in the past few days..."

Talking to herself, Guan Jingxuan put the box into Qiankun's bag, turned her head to look at the sky outside the window, and couldn't help feeling a little worried: If you don't come at this hour, could it be that you noticed something strange and hid?

Just as Guan Jingxuan was thinking, someone knocked on the door suddenly, before he could answer, a person pushed the door open and entered.

"Master, I'm back!"

Guan Jingxuan looked at the visitor and raised his eyebrows slightly, and said, "Is everything going well?"

Shen Ziliu strode over to the table and sat down, picked up the teacup in front of Guan Jingxuan and drank it down, and said with a smile: "It's just a Wutongshen, my disciple hasn't taken it seriously yet."

Guan Jingxuan looked at him with a subtle smile, but said nothing.

Shen Ziliu put down his teacup and came forward, twisted a strand of Guan Jingxuan's hair around his fingers, looked at him with an ambiguous smile, and said, "The disciple has completed the task, should the master reward the disciple?"

Guan Jingxuan said without changing his expression, "What do you want?"

"I want--"

Shen Ziliu suddenly stood up and leaned towards Guan Jingxuan...
