refuse to be a teacher

The plain white paper screen opened and closed completely with the sound of leaving the pillow.In this huge room, only Yi Shangxian and Xue Lanyin are left.

Yi Shangxian didn't speak, and Xue Lanyin never took the initiative to speak.The two were silent for a while, Xue Lan moved her lips nervously, wanting to ask Yan Jue how the situation is, but Yi Shangxian took the lead and asked first: "...you know your own physical condition ?"

Xue Lan raised her eyes to look at him, her ashen complexion didn't have a trace of the brilliance of the past.

"The living sword is born with a strong body, and its ability to heal and regenerate wounds is even different from ordinary people." Yi Shangxian stood behind him with his hands behind his back, the emotions flowing in his eyes were always dim, "So the soul-sending curse tried to keep your remnant soul. , in order to ensure that your body can be restored to its original state day by day when the original body is torn apart."

"...At the same time, the consumption it brings to the caster is also devastating."

Xue Lan finally couldn't bear it any longer, turned her head slightly to him and said, "Then my master..."

"He hanged his life and tried every means to get you a rebirth. After all, you only regard your life... as something that can be thrown away at any time." Yi Shangxian suddenly raised his volume, although his voice was as steady as before, but his voice There was no lack of contempt and contempt in his attitude, "Xue Lanyin, should I say you are stupid? Or do you mean you don't understand the truth at all?"

Xue Lan's eyes trembled slightly, and she couldn't help saying: "I..."

"To this day, most of the past memories crushed and shattered by the Soul Sent Curse have been fully restored in your mind." Yi Shangxian turned around without looking back at him, "You living sword clansmen, Born is a life of self-destruction. Whether you want to hate or go crazy about those things that shouldn’t be remembered in the past, I still have the same old saying-if you want to die, I will never stop it .”

After a pause, Yi Shangxian seemed to want to emphasize something more.After a while, finally just let out a smirk, and said with some sarcasm: "Anyway, you two, master and apprentice, will sooner or later kill you, and I don't have much to do with it."

After all he said, he had nothing to say for a while.The thousands of thoughts in my heart, the moment I saw the half-dead wooden man in front of me, they sank for no reason and were covered with a layer of light gray.

Xue Lan looked like a dead dog who had lost his family and lost his master. For a long time, he lay prone in the dead corner between the wooden couch and the wall. He seemed to be listening carefully to what Yi Shangxian was talking next to him, but he didn't open his mouth for a long time. any response.

After a while, even Yi Shangxian pushed aside the paper screen and walked out.There was a crisp sound isolated from the world, and Xue Lan was lying alone on the low wooden couch surrounded by multiple barriers, his mind was full of chaotic thoughts.

The memories of the past are really numerous and complex, and some things go back a little longer, and he can't even remember every detail.But there are two figures in his mind, which are reflected more and more clearly from the beginning to the end.

One is Yan Jue, a 17-year-old boy, and the other is his blood relative who he has forgotten for 16 years.

A person's existence...how low must it be, so that he will be treated so cruelly and cruelly in the end, and no one will remember every bit of him that has ever been related to him?

Xue Lan can remember everything now, but the bitter anger and pain back then, as well as the grief and rage when the blood burst out, if you look at it now, it has been covered up layer by layer. confused.

As Yi Shangxian said, he should hate it.But now he is like a dummy with a ring of memory, everything is empty, everything is empty, as for what to do, he has no strength to think about it.

Xue Lanyin turned over slowly, and the heavy iron locks knocked on the thin wooden couch below her, making an indescribably muffled sound.

Just as he closed his eyes, the paper screen in front of him opened and closed again in gusts of wind.This time, it was the young man who had just called Cheng Bi in again, holding a bowl of steaming medicinal soup in his hand.

"Drink the medicine." Cheng Bi said, "I can go to rest after drinking."

Because Xue Lan ignored him, she frowned and turned over again, like a salted fish fried in a pan.

Cheng Bi was naturally not a gentle master, so he stepped forward in two or three steps, pinched his nose and poured the medicine bowl between his lips.Xue Lan couldn't break free because of a toss, forcing him to pour hot concoction all over his face, gurgling down his side face, full of an indescribable grassy smell.

After finally finishing feeding a bowl of medicinal soup, Xue Lan lost more than half of his dog's life, so Cheng Fang took out a rag from his pocket and wiped his mouth, saying, "Why are you stubborn? My master rescued you back, are you putting on airs?"

Because Xue Lan was tied up in the iron lock barrier, he couldn't move for a while, so he could only let Cheng Bi do anything wrong to him.But after thinking about it, this person kept calling Yi Shangxian Master, which showed that he was not an ordinary house slave in Changxingjuli.

Since he is not an ordinary domestic slave, he must have some understanding of Yan Jue's current situation.

Therefore, Xue Lan was no longer paranoid because of her acquaintance, but it was rare that Wen Wen slowly opened her voice and asked him: "Are you... Yi Shangxian's apprentice?"

Cheng Bi said expressionlessly, "What's none of your business?"

Because Xue Lan didn't see much light in her eyes, she just said shyly, "Please do me a favor. I'm asking you to ask someone."

Cheng Bi said coldly: "You want to ask about your master again? I've said it many times... I don't know him..."

"No, you must have seen it." Xue Lan stretched out her hand, trying to make some gestures with him, "He is probably a little shorter than me. He is very thin, not very talkative, and has the same temper as your master. rush……"

"I don't know." Cheng Bi shook his head, but still said, "In the entire Changxingjuli, my master is the most difficult to talk to. Who else can contradict him?"

Xue Lan suddenly felt a little depressed, and if he went deeper, he should be more and more unclear.Fortunately, at this time, Cheng Bi's head had a flash of light, and he added in time: "...I have only lived here for a few months, and I am not familiar with most of the things here. You have to ask those There are a lot of miscellaneous people, Changxing Juli has constant visitors every day, and there are countless people who are taller than you and shorter than you... How can you find the person you are looking for?"

Xue Lan came to her senses after being asked such a question.After thinking about it carefully, Fu said again: "He is wounded, and the injury is not serious, to the point where he can't walk."

"what……"

Cheng Bi blinked, and suddenly changed his tone: "I remembered!"

Xue Lan immediately sat up straight from the couch, and asked repeatedly, "He...where is he?"

But seeing that Cheng Bi seemed to think of something again, he frowned slightly, and said in a low voice, "Oh...my master won't let me say it."

This time, Xue Lanyin even wanted to rush up and hit him.Reluctantly, his movements were limited, so he had to be patient and intercede with him: "You have done a good deed, tell me, where is he? How is the situation now?"

Cheng Bi said, "So what if I tell you? With your appearance, you still want to find him?"

Because Xue Lan is smart, she doesn't intend to compete with him.After thinking about it for a while, I changed my way to talk to him and said: "No... I won't go to him, I'm just worried. You should at least reveal a few words, so that I can feel more at ease."

Cheng Bi stopped talking, and the expression on his face was a little weird.Because Xue Lan looked at him, he looked like an apprentice brought out by Yi Shangxian. Although he has not been here for a long time, he has already learned most of his master's usual spirit of dealing with people. Why? Looking at it, it looks more and more like a stubborn little stone.

Small stones met old stones, and there was a pile of stone spirits under Feng'ai Sword Master's door, each of which was smellier and harder than the other.

After a long time, Cheng Bi gently put down the medicine bowl in his hand, turned his head and asked him, "...is that your master?"

Seeing something interesting, Xue Lan's eyes seemed to be on fire, and they suddenly lit up clearly: "How is he?"

Cheng Bi squinted at him, and felt a little pitiful for some reason.After a while, he waved his hands and said in a calm voice: "Half a month ago, my master did bring back a sleepy young man, but at that time he kept away all the slaves and outsiders present, and hardly allowed anyone to see him. I am far away I glanced at the side, and was severely reprimanded by the master... After that, there will be no chance to see her."

Xue Lan was a little dazed because of hearing this, but her heart ached: "Your master didn't say... where did you send him?"

"No." Cheng Bi said blankly, "Don't you know what kind of temper my master has?"

Xue Lan shook her head because her eyes were tight, and stretched out her hand to fiddle with the chain on her wrist: "No, I, I have to ask him..."

"Hey!" Cheng Bi was shocked, grabbed his shoulders and said angrily, "Don't you want to die!"

Before he finished speaking, Xue Lan had already touched the sealing barrier on the edge of the house with brute force, only heard a sharp and light sound, and immediately felt like being hit by an electric shock, convulsed and crooked back, and fell on the wooden couch, excruciatingly painful He took several deep breaths.

Cheng Bi stood aside and looked at him like he was looking at a madman. The corner of his mouth twitched and he said, "Why are you doing this? The barrier is made by man, and the iron lock is specially used to suppress you alone - no matter how hard you escape use."

Xue Lan remained silent again, and buried her head back on the couch in despair. She really looked like a dead dog without a home.

Cheng Bi followed Yi Shangxian for several months, and the master and apprentice were both indifferent in temperament, but they seldom encountered such a situation.Seeing the first person like Xue Lanyin now, I couldn't help but feel sad and curious, so I bent down, looked at Xue Lanyin carefully and said: "Hey, what's the matter with you? Are you giving up your life for Master? "

Because Xue Lan curled up, she felt very tired at the moment: "When your master doesn't see you, you will naturally understand."

"I don't quite understand." Cheng Bi said, "People are always independent, how can they rely on Master for the rest of their lives?"

Xue Lan tilted her neck and squinted at him.After a while, I don't know what I thought of again, and suddenly said meaningfully: "Of course you don't understand, my master is different from your..."

Hearing this, Cheng Bi was really hooked: "What's the difference?"

Xue Lan raised her eyebrows and said, "You want to know?"

"Ah."

Because Xue Lan hooked his hands at him, Mingrui's dark peach eyes curved into a breathtaking arc: "Come here, I'll talk to you."

Cheng Bi lowered his head in a strange way.The moment the pinna was facing Xue Lanyin's side cheek, the man on the wooden couch suddenly bent his waist and sat up, the index and middle fingers of his right hand quickly moved together in a line, and slapped in the middle to avoid a large acupoint on his chest.

Cheng Bi froze all over, before he could say something, his limbs were already stiff, and gradually became numb and unable to move.Xue Lan dodged again, her left hand took advantage of the momentum, and slashed straight at the unsuspecting sleepy acupoint on the back of his neck, then turned her head slightly, and whispered in his ear with a three-point smile:

"My master, that's the person next to me who stays with me day and night..."

Cheng Bi's eyes widened, and his face flushed with shock.He opened his mouth, but before a word could escape his throat, he turned sideways violently, and passed out completely with a plop.
