Salted fish master was forced to accept disciples

Yu Qiqi walked through the Moon Gate with a food box in his hand, raised his eyes and saw Jiu Ling kneeling in the snow, and couldn't help but widen his eyes in surprise.

This was the first time she saw Jiu Ling being made to kneel, and she was shocked and surprised.

Seeing the smile on the corner of Jiu Ling's mouth, she couldn't help but raised her hand and rubbed her eyes. The young sect master was punished to kneel, how could he still be smiling so happily?

Could it be that the young master is not punishing him by kneeling, but a new method of cultivation?

Yu Qiqi was confused and walked over.

Jiu Ling looked down at the food box in her hand, and said, "Master hasn't eaten since yesterday, don't let him eat too fast, let him eat two mouthfuls of porridge first."

"Okay." Yu Qiqi came down, opened his mouth, and looked at Jiu Ling hesitantly, "Brother Ling, are you alright?"

Jiu Ling shook his head.

"Then..." Yu Qiqi looked worried.

Jiu Ling knew what she was thinking, and said before she opened her mouth, "Don't plead for me."

"...Yes." Yu Qiqi didn't know what happened to the master and apprentice, so he could only nod his head.

Anyway, the sect master loves the young sect master and will never let the young sect master really have an accident.

Yu Qiqi walked up to Luoshui Residence, knocked on the door as usual, and walked in with a food box. Xi Tao hadn't eaten, and should be hungry, but when he saw the food, he didn't have the slightest appetite.

He opened his mouth to refuse, but Yu Qiqi had already put the food on the table, and said softly: "Master, I made these with my own hands, you can eat as much as you want."

Jiuling and Yu Qiqi have taken care of his food and daily life in these years. If Jiuling is in Tianchenmen, Jiuling will be in charge of it, and no one else will be allowed to interfere. If Jiuling is not in Tianchenmen, he will be in charge. Let Yu Qiqi take care of him, there is no such regulation in the sect, but everyone seems to have acquiesced to this approach.

Xitao objected a few times, letting the two of them go their separate ways, but unfortunately the objection was ineffective. Although Jiu Ling and Yu Qiqi had always listened to him the most, they reached a tacit agreement on this matter. Ken is obedient.

Looking at the hot meals and dishes on the table, Xi Tao couldn't bear to disappoint Yu Qiqi, so she hesitated for a moment, then nodded.

Luo Tianchen is a mortal child, if he doesn't eat all the time, it may arouse suspicion.

Xitao picked up the chopsticks and poked the rice grains in the bowl. The usually delicious food became a little hard to swallow now.

His apprentice hasn't eaten yet.

Xi Tao felt that she was a little disappointed, and she clearly wanted to take this opportunity to make Jiu Ling realize her mistakes, but she still couldn't help but soften her heart.

... As the saying goes, strict teachers produce excellent students!He must hold back.

Seeing that he hadn't moved his chopsticks for a long time, Yu Qiqi asked softly, "Master, is the food not to your liking?"

Xitao shook her head, picked from the plate, and finally chose a piece of carrot that she didn't like the most, put it in her mouth and chewed it.

The smell of carrots still made him unbearable, but thinking that he was suffering with his apprentice, he felt a little better.

He silently ate one piece after another of carrots, and Yu Qiqi felt uncomfortable when he saw him eating.

She pursed her lips, and said softly: "Master, why did you punish Brother Ling?"

Xi Tao ate a little slower and didn't speak.

Yu Qiqi was silent for a while, then suddenly said with red eyes: "Song Zhou is dead, I think he deserves to die."

Xitao looked up at Yu Qiqi, Yu Qiqi had grown into a big girl unknowingly, her childhood memories didn't seem to cast a shadow on her, she was pretty, lively, cheerful, independent and steady, everyone liked her very much.

But at this moment, looking at her heavy eyebrows, Xi Tao realized that she had never forgotten the harm she and her relatives had suffered, and many mermen were like her, including Jiu Ling.

Yu Qiqi said in a low voice: "Song Zhou killed my grandfather and hurt many mermen. I am very happy that brother Ling can avenge us. Even if brother Ling doesn't kill him, maybe one day I will Find a way to kill him."

Xitao's eyes widened in surprise. He always thought that Yu Qiqi was timid and well-behaved, but he never thought that Yu Qiqi would still harbor such a strong hatred in his heart.

He always thought that the weather in Tianchenmen was calm, but it turned out that it was dark and turbulent, imminent.

Some pain cannot be erased after it has passed.

Yu Qiqi seemed not to want to see Xitao's disappointed eyes, so she lowered her eyes.

"Master, Qiqi knows you will be disappointed, but Qiqi will never forget."

She couldn't forget any of those ups and downs, insults and filth, and every painful memory of her contained the blood of her loved ones.

"...No." Xi Tao looked up out of the window, staring at Jiu Ling's thin figure, and said dryly, "I have never experienced your pain, and I am not qualified to ask you to forgive me. I just..."

Xi Tao's voice stopped and she didn't continue.

He just didn't want to see Jiuling doomed, and Yu Qiqi and other mermen were bound by hatred for a lifetime. He wanted to see people in Xishui City live happily ever after.

But that might just be his wishful thinking.

Yu Qiqi felt sour, she was silent for a while and said: "Sect Master, Brother Ling probably killed Song Zhou because he heard bad things about you, please forgive Brother Ling this time."

Xi Tao raised her eyes, and Chi asked, "What bad words?"

Yu Qiqi recalled: "Brother Ling and I passed by the gazebo yesterday, Song Zhou and his group happened to be drinking, Song Zhou drunkenly said some nonsense, it was unbearable, Brother Ling didn't let me tell you, for fear of getting dirty Your ears, I guess Brother Ling may have murderous intentions because of this incident, just to avenge my grandfather, I don't think you and the young sect master need to hurt your relationship because of a bad guy like Song Zhou."

Xi Tao frowned slightly, and asked, "What did Song Zhou say?"

"They said..." Yu Qiqi recalled for a moment, clenched his lower lip in confusion, and said, "...the sect master is very dignified and looks like he doesn't eat the fireworks of the world, but in fact his thoughts are dirty. Song Zhou said that you That's why you suddenly changed your attitude towards Brother Ling, because you fell in love with Brother Ling, you have kept Brother Ling by your side all these years... you never leave day and night, sleep in the same bed, and secretly do some dirty things at night..."

"He's talking nonsense!" Xi Tao's cheeks flushed with anger, and she put down her chopsticks angrily, but she couldn't swear, so she could only repeat that sentence, "They are talking nonsense!"

"They are bad people in the first place, and they don't have a good word out of their mouths. People with filthy minds will naturally look at others with evil intentions. The sect master doesn't have to care about them like them." Yu Qiqi comforted him, saying: "Brother Ling heard These words made my face look bad, but I didn't expect him to kill Song Zhou."

Xi Tao was so angry that she couldn't speak when she thought of Song Zhou's arrangement of his relationship with Jiuling behind her back.

In order to conceal Jiu Ling's identity in the early years, he did not deny this matter, but in recent years, Jiu Ling has gradually come to power, and he has already clarified that everyone in the door knows that they are innocent and have always respected Jiu Ling Youjia, he has never belittled him before, but he never thought that Song Zhou and the others would dare to talk about them behind their backs like this.

He couldn't help pressing his forehead.

Yu Qiqi looked at him carefully, and continued: "Song Zhou also said that he felt that there was something strange in the Tianchen Gate, and he must find out the truth, and then tell the city lord, and change the guard leader Dangdang with the city lord, he doesn't want to continue He got angry in the Tianchen Sect, he felt that his ability to catch the mermaids had nowhere to be used in Tianchen, and he was overqualified."

Xitao was taken aback. Could it be that Song Zhou already suspected that Mr. Lian Sha and the man in black came from Tianchen Sect?If he finds out the truth, the consequences may be serious, and it is right for Jiu Ling to silence her in time.

Yu Qiqi persuaded softly, "Sect Master, Brother Ling did this to protect you. In addition to the grievances in the past, although the methods were a little more intense, there are reasons to forgive him. Please forgive him this time."

"Qiqi, if Ling'er just killed Song Zhou, I wouldn't be so angry. As you said, Song Zhou's death deserves a lot of guilt, but Ling'er's method of killing Song Zhou is too cruel. I... don't want to see his methods. So brutal."

"Cruel?" Yu Qiqi's voice was very soft, with tears in his eyes, "Song Zhou's mouth was open, so Brother Ling cut off his tongue. Song Zhou had no eyes, so Brother Ling poked his eyes blind. I asked my subordinates to stab my grandfather eleven times, so Brother Ling repaid him eleven times, each stroke is clear, and there is no delay or arrears."

Xi Tao was speechless.

As he just said, he is not in a position to ask for their forgiveness.

Yu Qiqi blinked the tears in her eyes, and said in a low voice: "Qiqi is excited, sect master, don't mind."

She wiped away the tears from her face, stood up, bowed to Xi Tao, and backed out.

Xi Tao heard her go out, the door closed again, and then she raised her head to look at the empty room.

"Young sect master!" Yu Qiqi's exclamation suddenly came.

Xi Tao was shocked, stood up all of a sudden, opened the door and walked out.

Jiu Ling's face was pale, and she collapsed into Yu Qiqi's arms in a collapsed state. Hearing the sound of the door opening, he stared at Xi Tao without saying a word, struggling to sit up.

Xi Tao's heart softened, and she stepped forward quickly, looked at his flushed cheeks, knelt down and touched his forehead, it was hot to the touch, and she didn't know how long it had been burning.

He hurriedly supported Jiuling, and said to Yu Qiqi in a deep voice, "Hurry up and prepare the medicine."

"Yes." Yu Qiqi stood up anxiously, and ran away quickly. Over the years, the young sect master has been taken good care of by the sect master, and she rarely gets sick. She hasn't seen Jiu Ling in such a weak state for a long time , couldn't help being a little panicked.

Jiu Ling stared straight at Xi Tao, as if she couldn't see enough.

Xi Tao frowned, wiped his eyes, and said coldly, "If you feel dizzy, close your eyes."

Jiuling closed her eyes obediently. Although Master's voice was cold, her palms were warm.

His slender eyelashes trembled, looking a little fragile and pale.

Xi Tao sighed silently, helped Jiuling into the room, lay down on the bed, covered him tightly with the quilt, then wet the veil and put it on his forehead to cool him down.

Jiu Ling opened his eyes in a daze, and asked hoarsely, "Master, are you still angry?"

Xi Tao didn't speak, just said: "Sleep."

Jiu Ling refused to sleep, and held onto Xi Tao's hand, "Master, I'm cold."

He hasn't been sick for many years, but now his cheeks are flushed and his whole body is cold, Xi Tao couldn't help but soften his heart.

Xi Tao pressed the quilt on him, and said in a low voice, "Ling'er, promise me that even if you hate someone again in the future, don't insult and kill him."

Jiuling looked at him for a while, then obediently said: "Okay, Master, I will remember."

Xi Tao showed a faint smile, and said in a low voice, "Sleep, I'll watch over you here."

Jiu Ling held his hand, closed his eyes obediently, and finally fell asleep in peace.

The room was quiet, and the snowflakes outside kept falling. Xi Tao held Jiu Ling's hand, feeling that his hand had gradually regained its warmth, so she felt relieved.

Song Zhou deserved his death, because Song Zhou caused his apprentice to burn like this, Xi Tao couldn't help feeling a little heartbroken and regretful.

He thought of what Song Zhou said, and looked at Jiu Ling's sharp-edged face thoughtfully. Before he knew it, Jiu Ling had grown up, and it was really inappropriate for them to continue living together.

He left Jiuling in his room at the beginning to protect Jiuling, and worried that someone would hurt Jiuling. Now, with Jiuling's cultivation level, it is already considered good for Jiuling not to hurt others. He and Jiuling are together They got used to living together, and unknowingly forgot about living separately. Now thinking about it, it was indeed a bit wrong. When Jiu Ling recovered, it was time to think about living separately.

Jiu Ling has maintained a good health in recent years, and with Yu Qiqi's superb medical skills, it didn't take long for the fever to subside.

Xi Tao finally felt relieved after confirming that the apprentice would not burn it into a grilled fish.

Jiuling took the opportunity to act coquettishly, Xitao felt sorry for his apprentice, and almost responded to Jiuling's request, and the darkness and coldness on Jiuling's body gradually dissipated.

It was the first day after the snow, and there was silence in Tianchenmen.

Xitao opened the curtain and walked in. Yu Qiqi was sitting by the bed feeding Jiuling medicine, the sun was shining on them,

Jiu Ling was handsome, and Yu Qiqi was beautiful, and they were sitting together. Xi Tao only glanced at her, then took back her steps in a daze, and walked out quietly without disturbing them.

He came to sit in the gazebo, looked at the koi in the river, was slightly lost in thought, and suddenly realized that his apprentice had really grown up.

He had to live separately from Jiu Ling quickly, otherwise, with him as an eyesore master, it would delay the progress of Jiu Ling and Yu Qiqi's relationship.

Yu Qiqi glanced out of the window suspiciously, and murmured: "I seem to have seen the door master come in just now, why did he turn around and go out again?"

Jiu Ling followed her gaze and looked out, but saw nothing. It was warm outside, and the sun shone like gold on the ground.

Xi Tao was worried that she would disturb them, so she stayed outside for a whole day and didn't return to the house until night.

Jiu Ling had been waiting impatiently for a long time. Seeing him sitting up on the bed, his eyes brightened and he said, "Master, you are finally back."

Xi Tao nodded, walked over and touched his forehead, "Is today feeling better?"

"It's healed." Jiu Ling took his hand and rubbed the back of his hand affectionately, "Where did Shizun go today? Why didn't you come back to see Ling'er."

There was unconsciously a trace of grievance in his voice, he waited for Xi Tao all day today.

Xi Tao hesitated for a moment and said, "Ling'er, you've grown up too."

"Yeah." Jiu Ling pursed her lips and smiled.

Xitao lowered his eyes, and his thick eyelashes shone in the candlelight. He whispered, "I've set up another yard for you, which is bigger than this one. You can move there."

Jiu Ling's smile froze on his face, and he looked a little flustered, "Master, I don't need to open up any yards, it's good for me to live here..."

Xi Taoya's blue eyelashes trembled slightly, and said, "I want to live alone for my teacher."

Jiuling's voice paused. He looked at Xitao's evasive expression, his eyes darkened, his expression distorted for a moment, "Are you still blaming me for killing Song Zhou?"

Xi Tao shook her head lightly.

Jiu Ling's eyes darkened, and her fingertips gradually turned cold, "Song Zhou is more important than me in your heart? If I kill him, you will alienate me?"

Xi Tao raised her eyes to look at him, and explained: "Ling'er, I don't blame you, but you have indeed grown up, and you should sleep by yourself."

Jiu Ling pursed his lips into a straight line, with a gloomy face, "You know what Song Zhou said, right?"

Xi Tao's expression showed a trace of embarrassment, those words were really ugly, and he felt filthy even thinking about them.

"I don't care what others say, and I don't care what the outside world says." Jiu Ling said anxiously.

"But I care." Xi Tao frowned and looked at him, "Ling'er, I didn't think well about being a teacher before, and I always treated you like a child, so there are so many gossips outside. Tomorrow, you can move out. .”

Jiu Ling stared at him deeply, a dark fire rose in his heart, he put on some clothes, and walked out without saying a word.

Xi Tao opened her mouth, but she didn't stop him after all, she just sent someone to send all Jiuling's things to the new residence.

After tossing and turning all night, the guard reported that another guard had died last night.

Xi Tao was slightly taken aback. After questioning, he found that the guard was also from Song Zhou. This time, Jiu Ling did not humiliate him, but killed him with a single blow.

This was the case on the second and third days. During the day, Jiu Ling went as usual, as if nothing had happened, but at night, those people who were in collusion with Song Zhou died one after another.

Xi Tao counted with her fingers. If this continues, all the guards in Tianchenmen will be killed.

Xitao is depressed, the apprentice is busy killing people every night, do you have time to sleep?

At night, Xi Tao lay on the bed, tossing and turning, unable to fall asleep, thought about getting up, and went to Jiuling's room.

Xitao is very attentive to Jiuling's new bedroom. The antiques and jades placed in this room are all priceless items. The bed is soft and the bedding is silky, no worse than his bedroom.

The room was very quiet, Jiu Ling was not in the room, Xi Tao looked over carefully, nothing in the room had been touched, even the quilt was the same as before, as if no one had been lying on it at all.

Xitao frowned, looking at the brand new quilt, she couldn't help worrying, the apprentice was a mortal, if he didn't sleep like this, he would have fallen ill without being blackened.

He sat at the table and waited for a long time. It was almost early morning when Jiu Ling walked in covered in blood.

Xi Tao: "..." You killed someone, shouldn't you cover it up?

This makes it better for the teacher to reprimand you, or not to reprimand you.

Xi Tao thought for a while, pretended not to see anything, stretched out her hand and yawned big.

He tried his best to ignore the smell of blood on Jiu Ling's body, and poured him a glass of water as if nothing had happened.

Jiuling took a sip from the water glass, and said with a cold expression, "Master, what's the matter so far at night?"

Xi Tao looked at the black eyes under his eyes, and softened her voice, "Ling'er, you need to sleep."

The power of the deep sea in Jiu Ling's body was about to awaken, and he worried that Jiu Ling's body would not be able to hold on if he continued like this.

"I'm not sleepy." Jiu Ling's expression was still cold.

Xi Tao coughed helplessly and said: "Ling'er, I think you live a little far away, you might as well move back to my teacher's yard, even if you don't live in the same room, you can live closer. It happens that there are a few vacant rooms in the teacher's courtyard, and the teacher has already cleaned them up."

He should sacrifice himself for others and put his apprentice by his side to watch over. If this continues, the apprentice will not be able to return on the road to blackening.

It seems that the plan to save the disciple's blackening is really a long way to go.

Jiu Ling curled his mouth, revealing the only smile these days, and asked in a low voice: "Didn't Master say that I think I've grown up?"

He didn't expect Master to agree with him to go back to live, and he was already satisfied with moving back to a courtyard.

Xi Tao said against her will: "You haven't slept next to Teacher Wei recently, and you haven't slept very well for Teacher. Although you don't need to be Teacher when you grow up, Teacher needs you."

Jiu Ling's handsome and flawless face loosened slightly. Knowing that the master was lying to him, he couldn't help but chuckled, "Since the master needs me so much, I have no choice but to move back."

Xitao sighed, when other people's brats lose their temper, they want candy, and when his brats lose their temper, they want their lives.

A little smile finally appeared in Jiu Ling's eyes, "But I want to live next door to Master."

He was too greedy for the warmth that the master gave him, and only by proving his position in the heart of the master time and time again, could he get a moment of comfort, other than that, there was no other way.

Xitao nodded in agreement, rolled her eyes, "Yes, yes, then..."

Jiuling smiled, "Master, I won't kill those guards anymore. The guards I dealt with in the past few days were all those who were there that day. They were secretly investigating the man in black. If this continues, They will discover our secret, and if this matter is leaked out, it will bring trouble to the entire Tianchen Sect, so I solved them."

Xitao: "..." So you deliberately scare me into being a teacher?

Jiuling smiled softly, "I didn't understand some things a few days ago, and I was inevitably in a bad mood. Please forgive me, Master."

"Have you thought about it now?"

Jiu Ling shook his head, lowered his eyes and said: "I just want to understand, there are some things that I will never let go of in my life, there is no solution."

Since he couldn't figure it out, and couldn't feel relieved, he might as well stop thinking about it and wait for fate to push them forward. Maybe one day, he would understand what he really wanted.

Xitao reached out and touched Jiuling's hair. Young people who are just in love are always sentimental. As a master, he will try his best to help his apprentices.

Jiuling rubbed against Xitao's palm lightly, Xitao smiled, and took the apprentice who had finally recovered to go back to rest.

Early the next morning, Xi Tao was pleasantly surprised to find that his spiritual power had recovered to [-]%!

Sure enough, the apprentice still has to smooth his hair.
