Hearing that Zhu Qingshi believed that he was wronged, Lin San was stunned: "Master, do you really believe what I said?"
"Of course I believe it. Although I haven't been in contact with you for a long time, I also know that you are a cautious person. How could you take the initiative to provoke that Hua Ming?" Zhu Qingshi turned his head, looked at Lin San and said: " Actually, the leader should also know that you were wrongly accused by Hua Ming,"
"Ah," Lin San's eyes widened: "If the master knew that I was wronged, why would he punish me?"
Zhu Qingshi was silent for a moment and said slowly: "First, he favored his apprentice, and second, he maintained the authority of the master. In fact, what he did for the master today was a little wrong. He should not have contradicted the master in front of so many elders. The leader has lost face, and our lives as masters and disciples will not be easy in the future."
"Hmph," Lin San snorted coldly: "It's really chilling for a dignified leader to treat things so unfairly."
Zhu Qingshi smiled bitterly and said: "There is no fairness in this world. Everything depends on strength. Disciple, if you don't want to be idle in the future, you must work hard, practice hard, and improve your realm as soon as possible."
Lin San nodded: "My disciple has made a note of it. I will practice hard and live up to my master's expectations."
Next, the master and the apprentice chatted about some trivial matters. Afterwards, Zhu Qingshi felt a little tired and fell asleep.
After Lin San covered Zhu Qingshi's wound with a piece of thin cloth, he quietly left the third floor. In order to take care of Zhu Qingshi conveniently, Lin San did not return to his residence, but made a bed on the second floor of the attic and lay down. .
late at night.
Through the open windows of the attic, you can clearly see the shining stars and moon in the sky.
What happened today made Lin San feel emotional and unable to calm down for a long time. Ever since he came to the spirit world, Lin San has been alone and lonely. There is no relative or lover around him, but there are many enemies. When Lin San feels When things were bad, no one comforted him. When he was in danger, no one saved him. As time went by, Lin San gradually became a little cold-blooded... Just today, Zhu Qingshi did not hesitate to put himself in order to save Lin San. Lin San was deeply moved by being tortured and almost losing his life.
Lin San breathed out softly and murmured to himself: "After so many years, I finally feel the feeling of being protected and cared for by others... This feeling is really good..." It was not until late at night that Lin San finally Fall asleep slowly.
The night passed quickly.
At dawn, Lin San got up and went to the third floor.
Zhu Qingshi was still sleeping on the wooden bed.
Lin San walked over, lifted the thin cloth covering Zhu Qingshi's back, took out the medicine bottle, and began to change the medicine. Although Lin San's movements were very gentle, Zhu Qingshi finally woke up.
"Well... you're here so early," Zhu Qingshi wanted to get up, but as soon as he moved, there was an unspeakable sharp pain in his back, and he suddenly fell down on the wooden bed again.
"Master, your injury is too serious, it's better not to move," Lin San said hurriedly.
"Alas... As people get older, their resistance also decreases," Zhu Qingshi sighed: "When I was young, it would be okay to receive fifty lashes." Zhu Qingshi was talking nonsense. During the whipping punishment, you are not allowed to use your body's magic power to defend yourself. If a cultivator does not mobilize his magic power, he is basically the same as a mortal.
"Master is not old," Lin San said with a smile while gently changing Zhu Qingshi's dressing.
"I have lived for more than nine hundred years, and I am still not old," Zhu Qingshi gave Lin San a roll of his eyes.
Soon, Lin San helped Zhu Qingshi change the medicine.
After a night of training, Zhu Qingshi's complexion improved significantly, and the injuries on his back were also relieved a lot.
Lin San moved a stool and sat on the bedside to chat with Zhu Qingshi.
"How is your understanding of the lightning-inducing technique going?" Zhu Qingshi asked casually.
"I am studying the second star map," Lin San replied honestly, "I already have some insights."
"Okay, okay," Zhu Qingshi nodded: "Given time, you will definitely be able to practice the art of drawing lightning,"
Lin San opened her mouth, as if she had something to say.
Zhu Qingshi smiled: "If you have something to say, just say it directly. There is no need to hesitate with me."
Lin San pondered for a moment and said slowly: "Master, I have a doubt in my heart..."
"Say," Zhu Qingshi gestured to Lin San.
"Yesterday at the Tiantai Temple, why did you fight to protect me?" Lin San stared into Zhu Qingshi's eyes: "Master and I have only known each other for two months, and our relationship is not very deep..."
Zhu Qingshi was stunned. He didn't expect Lin San to ask this. He pondered for a moment and said: "Since you have become my disciple, I have to be responsible for your safety. Also, my life is approaching, and I need to find someone." The mantle has been passed on,"
"How can a disciple with poor qualifications like me be worthy of being the heir to the master's mantle?" Lin San shook his head.
"You underestimate yourself too much," Zhu Qingshi gasped: "You can understand the art of attracting lightning, which proves that you have good qualifications."
Just as Lin San was about to speak, he was interrupted by Zhu Qingshi.
"Although I haven't been with you for a long time, I feel very close to you. I, Zhu Qingshi, started cultivating immortality when I was twelve years old. Until I am more than nine hundred years old today, I have always been immersed in hard work and have never been interested in worldly affairs. The relationship between the other senior brothers is not very good." At this point, Zhu Qingshi suddenly thought of something, and his expression instantly became disappointed: "More than three hundred years ago, I traveled abroad, and it took ten years for me to return. The sect, who would have thought that as soon as I arrived at the sect, I received a piece of news that almost broke me... My master passed away. My master is the person who cares about me the most in this world. Without his guidance, I would never have been able to condense into a sect. Nascent Soul...I felt so regretful at that time, why I went out to travel and didn't even see my master for the last time...Since then, I have locked myself in my residence and never stepped out of the Tianshan Sect... It took more than two hundred years for my mood to feel a little better, and I slowly started to participate in the affairs of the sect... Due to my withdrawn personality, I couldn't get along with many of my brothers, especially the headmaster, who looked down upon me even more. Don't be fooled, even though I am an elder of the Tianshan Sect, in fact I have no power at all,"
Lin San did not expect that Zhu Qingshi had such a tortuous story hidden in his heart.
"Forget it, the matter is over, let's not mention it anymore," Zhu Qingshi took a breath: "Feng Chen, if you have nothing to do in the future, just try not to go out and wander around, so as not to be framed by that Hua Ming again."
"I understand, I will be careful in the future," Lin San nodded and replied, "Master, there is still something unclear about this disciple."
