In the end, after deliberation, the sect decided to use the existing results to assess the outer disciples, and those who meet the standards can choose one of the elders as their teacher.

And Yin Kang's grades are ranked first, but after the other disciples have finished their apprenticeship, he has not made a choice yet.

"Yin Kang, haven't you figured out which elder to worship under?" Out of curiosity, Gu Qianmu asked.

Yin Kang hesitated: "I, I want to worship Elder Zhongli as my teacher, but..."

Yin Kang didn't finish speaking, but Gu Qianmu understood.

Zhongli's two apprentices, one is him and the other is Yuexiu, neither of them was recruited through formal martial arts competitions.

According to Duan Ya's memory, he was picked up by Zhong Li from the street when he was a child, and Yuexiu's identity is a mystery, as if he appeared suddenly.

This is also the reason why Yuexiu's strength is not as good as some outer disciples.

Every year in the martial arts competition, there will always be people who want to worship Zhongli as a teacher, but he will not accept any of them, even if those disciples cry, make trouble and threaten to hang themselves, it will not help.As time passed, those who came here for fame had no choice but to give up Zhongli and choose other elders.

As a result, the other elders have countless disciples, but Zhongli's disciples are only him and Yuexiu.

It is really difficult for Yin Kang to worship Zhongli as his teacher.

"My master respects him..."

"I know, Elder Zhongli is busy repairing the bronze mirror, I will look for him when he has time." Yin Kang said cautiously.

"Is that bronze mirror so difficult to repair?" Gu Qianmu frowned, roughly calculating, it's been half a month, why hasn't it been repaired yet.

Yin Kang said: "In fact, the cultivation is almost done. It's just that the elder received a hundred whips a few days ago, and each stroke instilled all the spiritual power of the elder Yuechi, so the finishing work was a little slower..."

"What did you say?" Gu Qianmu's voice suddenly rose, and his voice trembled slightly, as if he suspected that he had an auditory hallucination: "Yin Kang, what did you just say?"

Yin Kang asked suspiciously: "The elder was whipped, didn't Brother Duan know?"

It's really whipping, don't even think about it, it's also because of me, no wonder I can't find Zhongli's figure recently, and asked Yuexiu to hide it hesitantly, so it's because of this?

"Whipping? Why?" Gu Qianmu asked with red eyes.

Yin Kang is a smart man. Looking at Gu Qianmu's reaction, he knew that Zhongli had deliberately concealed it from him, but he had already revealed so much, so he simply told him:

"That day, Elder Zhongli destroyed the barrier in order to save Senior Brother Duan, and the sect leader was furious. He wanted to punish the elder on the spot. Fortunately, the elder said that the secret realm could be repaired, but he still couldn't avoid being punished..."

"It's because of me again." Gu Qian said woodenly, his eyes were bloodshot, and he muttered to himself: "He thinks that if he traps me here, he won't be able to get news. If he doesn't come back for a few days, he won't be caught by me." Found it, didn't you?"

Zhongli protected him so well that he was tired of him, always thinking about how to get out, and then threw a tantrum at him.

But he has never really cared about Zhongli, and it is only natural for him to enjoy what he has paid.

He just stood there in a daze, not knowing when Yin Kang left. It was not until someone came to deliver food at night that he came back to his senses.

After standing for a long time, his legs and feet were so stiff that he was unconscious. The little disciple who delivered the food helped him: "Senior Brother Duan, be careful."

Gu Qianmu grabbed his wrist, "Little brother, tell me, did Zhongli get a hundred lashes? Tell me honestly!"

The junior student has only been in the Miao Cang School for a year, so how can he bear his yelling, and asked weakly: "How did senior brother Duan know?"

Gu Qianmu said eagerly: "Don't worry about how I know, just tell me, is it true? Is it because of me?"

The little disciple almost cried out of his fright, and replied tremblingly, "Yes..."

A single word seemed to take away all of Gu Qianmu's strength, and his body fell to the ground uncontrollably, as if he had lost his soul.

The elementary student called him many times before Gu Qianmu said: "I'm fine, you can go back."

The little disciple was useless here, so he bid farewell to him.

The food was cold, and Gu Qianmu's heart was also cold.

He put the food box on the table, which contained some of his favorite side dishes, which should have been specially ordered by Zhong Li to the dining room to prepare.

He was so busy, and his body was still injured, but he still remembered such trivial things. Gu Qianmu picked up the chopsticks and started to eat with a sore nose.

It tastes like wax...

After taking two bites, he couldn't eat anymore. He sat at the table, and the candles flickered on the table, illuminating the dim room.

He sat there until dawn, and he didn't wait for Zhongli to come back.

Yesterday's junior student came to deliver the food again, took a look at the food on the table, barely moved a few chopsticks, silently put it away, put the hot food on the table for him, and left silently.

Gu Qianmu didn't move at all.

The protégés came and went, taking away cold meals and putting down new ones.

Gu Qianmu just sat at the table like this, his mind was blank, he didn't think about anything, he didn't do anything, like a statue.

In the evening, the pupil who brought the food did not come, and after a while, there was the sound of the door being opened.

The lunch box was placed on the table, but the man didn't leave for a long time. After a long time, Gu Qianmu didn't raise his head and said: "You go!"

The figure in white said: "Ya'er, I just came back, where do you want me to go?"

It was Zhongli's voice.

Just for a moment, Gu Qianmu felt as if his heart was about to jump out, he suddenly raised his head, and met Zhong Li's tender eyes.

Tears were about to fall, Gu Qianmu turned his head away, his voice choked up: "You can go wherever you like? Anyway, don't come to me!"

Zhong Li smiled softly: "This is my residence, Ya Erjiu is used to occupying the magpie's nest, have you forgotten it?"

He laughed when he was sad, Gu Qianmu glared at him fiercely, got up and wanted to leave: "Then shall I leave the head office?"

Someone grabbed his wrist and pulled it in his direction, and then he fell into a slightly cool embrace, carrying the cool night outside.

"Ya'er...I haven't seen you for a few days, I miss you so much." Zhongli's nice voice rang in his ears.

For a while, Gu Qianmu would have suspected that another personality had come out if he hadn't seen those tired but still ink-like eyes just now.

"Then why don't you come back?" Gu Qianmu replied.

"I..." Zhong Li didn't expect him to ask such a question, and he didn't know how to answer for a moment.

Gu Qianmu smiled wryly: "How much thought did you put into hiding it from me?"

Zhong Li's eyes widened slightly. When he came out of the secret realm today, he saw the little disciple he had ordered to bring food to Gu Qianmu to wait outside, saying that Gu Qianmu hadn't eaten all day, as if he had lost his soul.

At that time, he thought it was because he hadn't gone back for a long time, and the little apprentice lost his temper, so he borrowed the kitchen and cooked some meals for the little apprentice himself.

Seeing that he didn't answer for a long time, Gu Qianmu turned around from his arms, touched his obviously thin face with his fingers, and his tone was full of self-blame: "Does it still hurt to be beaten?"

Zhong Li grabbed his fingertips and covered his face, "It doesn't hurt anymore..."

After so many years, he has always cared about others, and Gu Qianmu was the first one who really cared about him.Most people, including Yuexiu, dare not even get close to him because of his strength.

Gu Qianmu was displeased: "You lied to me again and took off your clothes, I want to see!"

Zhong Li grabbed his hand touching his waist, "What does Ya'er want to take this opportunity to do?"

"You!" The man's mind, like the other's, no!Can!Draw!stated!

Really misread him.

Gu Qianmu withdrew his hand angrily.

Zhongli heaved a sigh of relief, the wound on his back was just a hastily applied some medicine by himself, even after several days, it still looked hideous and terrifying, he didn't want Gu Qianmu to see it.

"Okay." Zhong Li rubbed his little head and opened the food box: "Master made it himself, can Ya'er give me a bite?"

It was obvious that Gu Qianmu's eyes lit up.

Zhong Li smiled lowly, "You haven't eaten much all day, so I made some light food, Ya'er can eat as much as you want!"

Gu Qianmu looked at the clear soup with little water on the table, and frowned: "Then you cook meat for me tomorrow."

Zhongli agreed: "Okay!"

Gu Qianmu said: "Master, have you eaten?"

Zhong Li was taken aback, and said, "Eat!"

Gu Qianmu curled his lips: "You lied to me again, you obviously don't have time to eat, and you've lost weight during this time."

Are you thin?so obvious?Zhong left.

But he did it in a hurry, according to taking care of Qian Mu's usual food intake, there was no extra food for himself.

"I'm not hungry, Ya'er eats."

Gu Qianmu was so angry that he lost his appetite, he put down his chopsticks: "Don't eat!"

How can I do this, my cultivation base is high, and I have reached the realm of bigu, it is not a problem not to eat or eat less, but Gu Qianmu has just recovered from a serious injury, how can he spoil his body like this.

Zhong Li sighed, blew on the porridge in the bowl, and brought it to Gu Qianmu: "Ya'er, eat as much as you like, good boy..."

"Don't eat!" Gu Qianmu waved his hand away, "Can't you think about yourself, don't just think about me, can't you be nice to yourself?"

"I..." Zhong Li was dumbfounded.

"You didn't tell me anything, you took all the responsibilities alone, went behind my back to be punished, and left me here alone, do you know that I would be worried?"

"I……"

"Do you think it's good for me to hide it from me like this? Because of the so-called gossip, you dare not even say you like me, and now, in order not to make me sad, you secretly lick the wound by yourself? You... ...Can't you discuss it with me?"

While talking, Gu Qianmu was about to cry again.

"I..." Zhongli wiped his tears in a panic: "Ya'er, I was wrong, stop crying."

Gu Qianmu cried and said: "I don't believe you, show me the injury on your back."

"Okay, okay, I agree to whatever Ya'er says, let's eat something, okay?" Gu Qianmu cried, his heart ached.

His little apprentice, when did he become so crying?

Zhongli thought about it carefully, it seemed that he was the one who provoked it every time.

"Let's eat together." Gu Qianmu asked again.

Zhongli still had something to say to him, so he nodded quickly.
