You are such a master

"En." The same cold voice made Gu Ran continue to open his eyes in a daze.

"Master...why are you here..." Shouldn't Master be meditating in Xuanshuang Peak?And when he just had a nightmare, he didn't know how much Master knew.

Gu Ran felt a little uneasy in his heart.

However, a slightly cold hand gently touched the top of his head, with a sense of comfort.This feeling made Gu Ran's body stiff, but there was a strange feeling of wanting to rub his palms...

Touching the head or something is really complicated!Master, you treat yourself like a child, right?

"You have been affected by the evil spirit to create a nightmare, and it even wants to invade your dantian and destroy your foundation." Xuanlan's voice was very gentle. For more than half a year, Gu Ran has been listening to this voice in cultivation, life, and life. Growing up, the originally impetuous emotions gradually dissipated with Xuanlan's voice.

"Evil spirit... Nightmare..." Gu Ran recalled the dream just now, and indeed almost made him feel ashamed.If there wasn't that low reprimand, I'm afraid I can't wake up now.

Wait... that voice shouldn't be Master's, right?That's what it sounds like...

"Who have you come into contact with recently, and how is the progress of the sect's mission? Tell me about it. That evildoer is cunning by nature, and he didn't leave any clues when he escaped just now.

Xuanlan didn't know that Xiao Jiujiu, who was entangled in Gu Ran's heart, just started to care about the recent situation of her apprentice.

Gu Ran has always been honest in front of Xuanlan, so he explained clearly to Xuanlan the process of going down the mountain to complete the sect's mission, but only concealed Qing Zichu's identity.

"People from the Qingxiao sect." Xuan Lan frowned slightly, as if he didn't have a good impression of this sect. "Your task has been completed, and you can deal with the rest. You and I will go back and continue to practice. You can't protect yourself from today's affairs, and you still have to practice diligently in the future."

"...Yes." Gu Ran was a little ashamed when he heard the words. It was too embarrassing to be surrounded by evil spirits and need the master to come all the way to save him.

"However, today's incident is not all your fault. There are so many villains in the world. I told you to practice hard. It's not because I want you to protect yourself. Don't let outsiders bully you."

Xuanlan's voice of relief also sounded afterward, which moved Gu Ran's heart, but at the same time, he couldn't help but breed a hesitation... "Master, if I do something wrong in the future..."

"What will you do wrong in the future?" Xuanlan's voice did not fluctuate much from the previous one.

"In the future... I don't know what will happen in the future..." He can't say things that he will be possessed in the future, things that haven't happened yet, who can know now?It's not necessarily in case I can stop the torrent of the plot.

"Since you don't know, why should you act in fear. Don't worry about unnecessary things. Even if you do something wrong, you will be punished by the teacher." The implication is that what outsiders say doesn't count.

"...Okay." If there really is such a day, if the master is disappointed in himself and punishes himself, then he will admit it.

Gu Ran's mood was fluctuating. Although Xuan Lan didn't know the details, he could see them all.He didn't ask too much about the identity of the young apprentice, but the Gu family didn't have Lingchuanjie, but Weilanjie had one.

There are some things that some people don't want to explain, so naturally there is no need to say more.Anyway... A dark red flashed across his eyes quickly, and he would know sooner or later, that voice said.

A few blocks away, Bei Ming slumped on the seat in a state of embarrassment, his back soaked in cold sweat.He had never been under such tremendous pressure, as if his heart was tightly pinched by someone's hands, and he needed to use all his strength to get out.

"Who the hell is... a young boy from the Xuanjian Sect can surprise him with such great power?" Bei Ming's eyes were full of complexity. It was just a whim of curiosity, but now he almost put himself into it. .

I hope this matter will not be involved too much... Beiming rubbed his brows, his annoyance could not dissipate, he mixed into the human race this time to obtain more resources for the tribe.

The cultivation environment of the monster clan is harsh and difficult, and most big monsters are extremely cruel by nature, so the methods of obtaining some resources are more excessive than those of the human race, and there are not a few monster clans that are annoying.

Facts have proved that Bei Ming's worries are unnecessary.There is no big power coming to trouble him again.

The main reason is that I don't have that leisure time and mood.Xuanlan's temperament has always been to kill the evildoers and demons who are directly in front of him. If he can't solve it at once, he will cut it off with his sword next time.

There is no one or anything worth thinking about as a Mahayana monk who is about to ascend, even if there is—

Xuanlan's eyes fell on the little apprentice beside her, and everyone who was worth remembering was kept by her side, everything was enough.

Before Gu Ran left, he naturally called the shopkeeper of Spirit Sword Hall to take care of him. As for his master, Gu Ran still didn't say anything about it for the sake of the shopkeeper's heart.

"There are honorable seats these days." Although the shopkeeper was surprised by Gu Ran's departure, he didn't ask too much.

"So, there will be a later date." Gu Ran smiled, and after saying this, he turned around and walked out of the Spirit Sword Hall with the figure standing at the door.

Xuan Lan's aura is very quiet, almost imperceptible. A monk has many ways to hide his identity. Even if he is in a bustling market, no one else will notice Xuan Lan besides Gu Ran. identity of.

The way back was not long, and after two quarters of an hour of Yujian's flight, the two arrived at the location of the teleportation array.

Gu Ran arranged the spirit stones one by one according to the position required by the formation, and when the last spirit stone was also placed, the entire teleportation formation lit up with a soft white light...

"Oh..." Wait, he seems to have forgotten something? !Gu Ran suddenly remembered that he seemed to have forgotten to buy a full of snacks and cakes for his master to taste, and the plan really couldn't keep up with the changes.

"What's wrong?" Xuan Lan asked.

"I forgot to buy the snacks and cakes full of Zuilou for Master. They taste very good." Gu Ran told the truth in a low voice.

"It's the same when you make it." Cultivators don't value appetite, but what Xuanlan likes is the one that Gu Ran brings to himself every time he is busy—probably this is the result of being let go. In the heart, Xuanlan felt very comfortable.

"Okay, then I'll make some for Master when I go back, just because I'm afraid my skills won't be as good as the chefs who are full of drunken buildings." Dozens of dim sum recipes appeared in Gu Ran's mind at the same time, some more traditional and some Modern pastry, just thinking about it makes me a little hungry...  

"The teleportation array is about to open, don't think wildly." Xuanlan said helplessly to remind, the eyes were full of doting and gentleness that she hadn't even noticed.

Returning to Xuanshuang Peak, Gu Ran felt as if he had returned home.The first thing is to carefully classify and classify some of the things brought back from this trip, pack the gifts for Gu Yi and the others separately, and let Bingniao lead its little brother to deliver them to everyone.

One after another, little ice birds circled away from Xuanshuang Peak, Xuanlan paused holding the chess pieces for a while, and then took his eyes off those little ice birds.

"It's really eccentric, even that guy Yunxu received a gift from the little apprentice, why don't you think you didn't?" Another voice laughed wildly.

Xuan Lan's silent eyes still had no waves.He just landed the white piece firmly on the chessboard and said, "So what, you don't have any."

The other voice stopped abruptly.An indescribable silence spread quietly in this room.

Of course, Gu Ran was not clear about these things, after finishing packing the presents, he rolled up his sleeves and went into the kitchen.These days, he bought a lot of ingredients in the big market outside, and the ingredients in the store would be enough for them to eat for half a year before it would be a problem.

The most important thing now is to turn the ingredients into gourmet food, and then serve it to Master to taste.As for handing over sect missions to the sect master brother, it doesn't matter if you spend a meal, right?

The smell of rice soon wafted out of the small kitchen, and Xuan Lan also opened the door and came out of her room on time, and then sat down at their dining table.

"Master, this is sweet and sour pork, try it..." Gu Ran took over the task of adding food to his master's meal very naturally.Xuan Lan opened his eyes slightly, and didn't say a word, his expression relaxed a lot.Quietly watching his little apprentice busy up and down for himself.

Gu Ran's stomach was full after a meal, and Gu Ran was so satisfied that he wanted to hiccup.

"The corner of the mouth is sticky." Xuanlan's voice sounded like a playful smile.

"...?!" Gu Ran's smile froze, and his face was replaced by an embarrassing red. His mouth was sticky after eating... and the master saw it. Gu Ran wanted to find a hole to get in.

"Wipe it off and you'll be fine." Xuan Lan looked at the little apprentice whose face was already burning, and stopped teasing him.

It's just that the slightly cold fingers and touch at the corner of Gu Ran's mouth are clearer than any words.

——It's fine if the master sees the sticky corners of his mouth after eating, and the master even wiped it off for himself... um... Gu Ran suddenly felt that he was not very well.

"Master, I'm full and I'm going to practice! I still have sect missions to tell the sect master brother! Let's go down the mountain first!" Gu Ran rubbed oil on the soles of his feet and slipped away with a blushing face.

This time, even the ice bird could not keep up with the call, and Yujian flew out directly.

After Xuanlan watched the figure drift away, a faint smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

******

The head of the sect, Yun Xuzi, has been in this position for a long time, and he has a sophisticated way of dealing with various interest disputes. After listening to Gu Ran's report, a serious pensive expression appeared on his face.

Gu Ran politely waited for Yunxu to think, but after a while, Yunxu asked slowly -

"Little brother, do you want to consider learning how to handle sect affairs with your brother?"

"Huh?!" Gu Ran was stunned for a while before he could react to the question from his senior brother, "Why did the senior brother in charge suddenly ask this?"

"I found that you are not only very talented in cultivation, but also have a much better brain in managing affairs than my big apprentice. You are simply a malleable talent, why don't you come and learn how to be a master with me, brother?"

It is really unmatched for Yun Xu to activate his identity as a magic stick. Gu Ran looked at the sincere face of his senior brother, and then at the expressionless face of Li Lang's nephew behind him...

"No, no, master wants me to practice more when I come back this time, so that I won't be inferior to others in the future when I go down the mountain, and it will be humiliating to the family." Gu Ran naturally replied sincerely.

Let's not talk about the many affairs that the position of head has to manage, but every time the master has trivial matters, the first reaction is "You can go to your brother head." "Your brother head will take care of it. "As soon as I heard it, I knew that the position of head is to handle a bunch of miscellaneous affairs.

Besides, according to Master's temperament.He definitely wouldn't let him take care of these sect affairs and delay his cultivation.

Seeing that he had failed in fooling around, Yunxu looked at Gu Ran sadly for a while, and finally heaved a long sigh, waving his sleeves so that Gu Ran could go back and continue to practice.

When Gu Ran Yujian's flying figure disappeared from Yunxu, he turned around and said to the expressionless face of his big apprentice Li Lang, "It seems that the important task of being the master can only be entrusted to I'm your disciple."

"The disciple knows." Li Lang's words showed no emotion.
