Dressed as an apprentice of Our Lady of the Sick

In the middle of the moon, Nan Heng hugged Xiao Tingxun and ran all the way to the Lingquan Pool.

However, the path paved with sand and pebbles by the pool was wet by spring water all the year round, his feet slipped, his body involuntarily threw himself forward, and the person in his arms also fell out.

Nan Heng watched Xiao Tingxun fall face down into the Lingquan Pond, and there were only two big words in his mind: It's over.

His master, who had always been cold and out of the world, was ruined in his hands.

Ahhhhh, I should be scolded miserably later.

However, Xiao Tingxun's body was light and light, and the moment he fell, he was like a cat. With the help of his toes, he stepped on the water and turned around to stand firmly on the water surface.

The pure white underclothes are floating in the air, like a banished fairy in the night.

"Master is good at it." Nan Heng couldn't help swallowing, his Adam's apple rolling.

Xiao Tingxun gave him a cold look, and flew back to the pool to settle down: "You go back, I will do it myself."

When Nan Heng saw that he had finished speaking, he turned his back and took off his clothes, unable to move a step.

Xiao Tingxun's lean back was not as delicate and smooth as he imagined, white as jade in the rough, but was covered with criss-crossing scars, like whip wounds.

"Master, on your back..."

He opened his mouth to ask, but Xiao Tingxun just turned around and saw that he was still standing there, and frowned: "Why don't you leave?"

His tone was indifferent, not the usual coldness, but from the inside out. Nan Heng felt a little disappointed when he heard the alienation in his tone.

Xiao Tingxun has been like this ever since he trespassed on the forbidden land.

Even if he was given medicine and went to Xue Hantian to pick him up, he was just fulfilling his duty as a teacher. He could feel that Xiao Tingxun didn't have any personal emotions mixed in, which was why the favorability suddenly couldn't increase. reason.

But he never knew why, if it was because he violated the door rules and trespassed in the forbidden area, the punishment would have passed, Xiao Tingxun was not a grudge, if it was because of his broken seal, but the relationship between the two of them was also An agreement has been tentatively reached.

Xiao Tingxun stared at him with burning eyes, only wearing a plain white gown.

"I'm leaving now." Nan Heng was afraid of making him unhappy, so he turned around and left after saluting.

But he didn't go too far, and sat on the floor in the bamboo forest more than a dozen steps away. It was quiet late at night, and the distance between the two was not far away. Nan Heng could still hear the sound of lingling water coming from the Lingquan pool from time to time.

He took a deep breath, and Xiao Tingxun's shoulders full of welts appeared in his mind just now, and he recalled the tight hand feeling when he hugged Xiao Tingxun's waist and carried him on his back, Suddenly, I felt a rush of heat rushing into my mind.

Afterwards, this kind of thought became more and more out of control, leading to changes in his body.

However, the sound of water by the pool suddenly stopped, and in the pitch-black silence, only the occasional chirping of insects came to mind.

Nan Heng frowned and listened for a while, but there was still silence.

Finally unable to wait any longer, he suddenly got up and strode towards Lingquan Pool.

The water surface in the pool was calm, Xiao Tingxun leaned against the side of the pool, slightly leaning his head against the pool wall, his whole body was shrouded in mist, his face was obscured, and the pool water had spread to his chest.

"Master?"

Nan Heng called him, but didn't get a response, so he didn't hesitate anymore, took off his clothes, shoes and socks, and got out of the pool as well.

The water in the pool is only to the waist, not very deep.It's the beginning of September now, and it's already a little cold at night, but the pool water is warm, just the right temperature, and spiritual energy lingers in the water, scrambling to get in along his skin.

Nan Heng came to Xiao Tingxun's side, raised his hand to touch his forehead, it was a little hot.

He embraced Xiao Tingxun's waist, hugged him up, and hugged him in his arms, he felt Xiao Tingxun's trembling slightly.

Is it cold?Or does it hurt?

The second elder didn't say that soaking in a spiritual spring would lead to this.

But he didn't have time to think about it, because Xiao Tingxun was unconsciously stabbing him in his arms.

Nan Heng hugged him tighter, his body was hot and could help him warm up.

On the other hand, he lowered his head in shame.

Because he was comforting himself with the help of such intimate contact with Xiao Tingxun.

Fortunately, the person in his arms was unconscious.

Time passed extremely slowly, and the comfort at the beginning turned into torment. Nan Heng took a deep breath, wanting to put the person aside first, and relieve himself.

Unexpectedly, just as soon as he moved, the person in his arms suddenly moved. He lowered his head, and Xiao Tingxun's long and narrow phoenix eyes were staring at him.

Nan Heng: ...

"Master, when... did you wake up?"

"Just now." Xiao Tingxun looked indifferent, pushed Nan Heng away, and said in an unquestionable tone, "You go back first."

"Okay." Nan Heng lost all thoughts in an instant. He didn't know if Xiao Tingxun had noticed it, and he was also afraid that Xiao Tingxun was saying something else, so he almost ran away.

It wasn't until Nan Heng's figure disappeared into the darkness that Xiao Tingxun exhaled slightly. Although the aura was strong here, he had just woken up and was still a little weak, otherwise he wouldn't have passed out.

He went ashore pretending to be calm, put on his clothes, and stood by the pool for a while, making sure that Nan Heng had gone back first, and then went to the bamboo building with hands and feet.

In the second half of the night, neither of the two people who were separated by a wall fell asleep again.

In the morning of the second day, Nan Heng sent a message talisman to Shang Min.

Shang Min came very quickly, and Nan Heng just stepped down to the small elegant hall on the first floor, and saw Shang Min was already sitting on the wicker chair.

"Where's Yuqing?" Shang Min asked.

"Master may not be awake yet, I'll go and see," Nan Heng said.

Shang Min waved his hand: "No, I'll wait for him."

Footsteps could be heard on the stairs, Xiao Tingxun was fully dressed and walked down: "Master."

Shang Min nodded, his face was full of concern: "How is it? Are you feeling better?"

"It's all right."

"That's good, that's good." Shang Min smiled, "Ping Lan said that you still have to rest for a few days, so don't worry about Wu Yan."

He paved the way for a lot, in fact, just to say this sentence.

The matter of Murong Qing has always been a knot in Xiao Tingxun's heart. On that day when the new disciples were assessed, Wu Yan somehow summoned Murong Qing's soul out by accident.

This matter involved the Soul Sacrificial Sect, and Xiao Tingxun had just recovered, so he was afraid that something would happen again.

But Xiao Tingxun didn't follow his wishes: "Master, I want to go to the Soul Sacrifice Sect."

Shang Min's face suddenly darkened: "You rest first, it's just to ask a question, to ask for an explanation, I'll just let Fuhu go."

"No, this matter involves him, I have to go in person." Xiao Tingxun didn't have the slightest chance to refuse, "Just tomorrow, and please send me a note in advance."

Shang Ming: ...

You do listen to people.

But Xiao Tingxun has such a temperament, and Shang Min also knew that it would be useless to persuade him, so he sighed and replied: "Okay. You can go, but I have to send someone to go with you."

Nan Heng stood aside, and when he heard that Xiao Tingxun was going to the Soul Sacrifice Gate, he began to make plans.

Hearing Shang Min's words, he immediately said: "Master Shang, I want to go with Master."

I thought Shang Min would not agree, who knows.

"Of course you have to go together." Shang Min waved his hand and gave Nan Heng a blank look, "Otherwise, who will take care of Yuqing? Besides, I will let Fu Hu bring Bo Yan with you. Although Fu Hu is not as good as you, but You have just recovered, and at critical moments, you can still help."

Xiao Tingxun nodded, it doesn't matter who he takes, as long as he can go in person.

On the second day, Nan Heng carried a simple salute from the two of them on his back, and met Bo Yan in the small square on Liuyun Peak's ascending fairy steps.

The examination results of the newly promoted disciples have been pasted on the display board in the small square, and many disciples are watching with great relish.

Among the inner disciples, Qi Jin won the top spot, and the outer disciples should have been Wu Yan's number one, but because he died secretly practicing magic, he was replaced by No.2.

Nan Heng originally thought that his ranking should not be very good, but who would have thought that he would even make it into the top five, ranking fourth.

He wanted to tell Xiao Tingxun to win his favor.

But when he turned around, he saw Xiao Tingxun standing there with an indifferent face, and the great elder Bai Chengyan surrounded him and talked with great interest.

Nan Heng: ...

Forget it, master should be in no other mood at this time.

--Ding!

[Defeat the outer disciple Wu Yan, refreshing point +1000; bathing in the hot spring pool, Xiao Tingxun's favorability -100; plot progress 30%.Please keep up the good work. 】

After listening to the system broadcast, Nan Heng frowned. Bathing in the hot spring pool reduced her favorability?

Ok……

Xiao Tingxun really knew it.

Moreover, it seems that when he was in the hot spring pool, the system didn't even warn and punish him?

As if detecting his thoughts, System 88 quickly said: [Currently, Xiao Tingxun's favorability is negative, so no punishment measures will be launched against the host for the time being. 】

To put it bluntly, as long as it's not a two-way heartbeat, the system doesn't care.

Wait, two-way?

Nan Heng glanced suspiciously at Xiao Tingxun who was in the distance, so when he just started apprenticeship, was Xiao Tingxun really interested in him?

But then why did it disappear again?

Before he could figure it out, Bo Yan had already walked over and patted him on the shoulder: "Junior Brother Nan, let's go."

"Oh." Nan Heng came back to his senses, Xiao Tingxun and Bai Chengyan had already walked over side by side.

Nan Heng was still thinking about those messy things in his heart, and he was a little guilty and called out: "Master, Great Elder."

Xiao Tingxun gave a very indifferent "Yeah", and the Great Elder still smirked as always: "Nan Heng did well in the assessment this time, No. 4! Yuqing, your vision for selecting apprentices is really good."

Xiao Tingxun ignored him, glanced at Nan Heng and said, "Beware of arrogance and impetuosity."

For some reason, Nan Heng looked into his eyes and heard something else from these four words.

He blushed and lowered his head: "Yes, Master."

The four left the Changqing sect and walked with their swords.

Nan Heng's only Liumu sword was broken during the battle with Wu Yan. Later, he, Shang Ming, Yin Jiu, and Su Ye sent Xiao Tingxun back to Hanlin Peak, and then went back to find the sword. He tried to do it himself. Fixed it.

Although there was almost nothing left of the spiritual power attached to the sword, after he awakened the lightning-type spiritual root, he found that his cultivation was much faster than before, and it seemed that he was no longer blocked by the seal in his body.

Now he is at the elementary level of physical training, with sufficient spiritual power, the initial formation of the spiritual core, and the value of force has been greatly improved compared to before.

The Soul Sacrifice Gate was not far from Liuyun Peak, and the four of them had only spent half a day wielding their swords before they stopped in front of a deep canyon.

The entrance of the canyon was sealed with a barrier, and two disciples in black robes stood guard there.
