After being away for more than a month, Shi Lai and Lin Jingjing chatted until their lips were dry and their stomachs were hungry. Shi Lai was wondering why Xia Yi hadn't come back yet, and wanted to go out and have a look. Suddenly, someone knocked on the door.
Saying please come in, the waiter of the inn walked in with a sumptuous dinner, leek porridge, wolfberry mutton, old male duck meat...
The waiter looked at Shi Lai and Lin Jingjing with a slightly strange expression and said, "Sir, this is the dinner your companion ordered for you."
"Grandpa ordered it?" Shi Lai took a sniff and said, "It smells so good! Put it here. Grandpa is so thoughtful. Won't he come back to eat?"
The waiter said: "Probably not, he has already checked out another room."
Checked out? What the hell? Shi Lai scratched his head in confusion and called out to Lin Jingjing to sit down and eat. When the waiter left, he eagerly picked up a chopstick of mutton. When he looked up, he found that Lin Jingjing had a blushing face and hadn't moved.
Chopsticks.
"Eat, Jingjing? I don't know what the old man is doing. Maybe something happened. He even checked out another room. We won't wait for him."
Lin Jingjing asked in a low voice: "Shi Lai, do you have any money?"
"Money?" Shi Lai shook his head: "I have already paid the fine, otherwise I will be arrested for more than seven days. You don't have it either? Is it okay? Grandpa has paid for the meal and the money for staying in the inn."
Lin Jingjing: "Senior Xia Yi checked out... he shouldn't be back at night, right?"
Shi Lai: "Probably, it's okay, our room fee will be paid at noon tomorrow, I..."
At this point, he finally realized that something was wrong, and blinked: "Hey?! Grandpa has checked out the room, where should I stay?"
After thinking about it, he said helplessly: "Grandpa, it seems that we two have to move over tonight. When you were in my house, you were in good health. I slept on the bed and you slept on the stool. Now it's my turn. I'll sleep on the chair tonight."
Go...well, it's okay if I don't sleep.
Ignore that for now, maybe grandpa will come back later to have a meal."
Lin Jingjing hummed softly, picked up the chopsticks, and said: "When the time comes, let's... eat less..."
"Eat less? Aren't you hungry?" Shi Lai wondered: "You have to eat more, Jingjing, this dish looks very nutritious. Grandpa must have specially ordered it for you. Eating more is good for your health."
"...Oh." Lin Jingjing blushed for a while, mustered up her courage, and picked up a large dish with chopsticks.
…
Early the next morning, Xia Yi walked out of the Pavilion, stood in front of the door and yawned.
His eyes moved, and he turned his head to look at a nearby alley in surprise. Yu Han was sleeping in the corner in a magical sleeping posture - the knife on his shoulder was inserted straight into the gap between the square bricks, and he held the handle of the knife with one hand.
, hung his feet on the wall, and fell asleep.
This is a very unstable posture, but Yu Han can sleep soundly in this posture, which proves that this must have become his habitual posture.
Xia Yi walked over silently, and suddenly touched Yu Han's supporting elbow, causing him to bend his elbow and fall headfirst.
Without even opening his eyes, Yu Han pushed his other hand down, skillfully changed the supporting hand, and still slept steadily on the knife... He didn't even wake up.
Xia Yi smiled and held the handle of the knife in his hand, snatching it upwards. Yuhan climbed up and down with his feet, raising his body until he kicked the wall. Then he swayed, opened his eyes, was stunned, flipped and jumped down.
"Senior! Are you out?"
Xia Yi smiled and said, "You just waited here for me all night?"
Yu Han nodded: "Yes..."
"Don't you know that I will definitely find out that you two children are following you? If I entered the brothel to avoid you, and I left the brothel's back door silently and never came back to find you, what should you do?" Xia Yi asked
.
Yu Han said: "If I can't wait for you at noon, I, I... will go home."
"Then there is a way to give that girl an explanation?" Xia Yi said with a smile, "You don't seem to want to accept me as your teacher?"
Yu Han paused slightly: "I'm sorry, senior, for bothering you. I actually... have a master. The master is indeed not as strong as you, but she helped me when I was in the most difficult time, but she didn't let me tell others.
Her presence.”
"She is a doctor?" Xia Yi squeezed Yu Han's strong arm, "There are some things that cannot be made up for by hard work alone. You can practice to the peak of four stars at this age with only two soul apertures. Just rely on
Efforts are not enough, especially when you have one or two stars. Practicing too hard will cause irreparable damage to your body.
Otherwise, you can reach your level with just hard work. Even if the young man himself is not strong enough, the monks from the big family would have been training their juniors day and night."
Yu Han: "I'm sorry, senior."
"Is there anything I'm sorry for? It's like I don't need you as my apprentice." Xia Yi laughed.
Yu Han quickly said: "Senior, that's not what I meant, I meant..."
Xia Yi nodded: "I know that you don't want to become a disciple in your heart, but you can't defeat Guan Cheng. That girl is a little cunning, but she is also very simple. She is really doing your best, cherish it, young man.
It's your blessing to meet a powerful doctor. You don't have any hidden injuries on your body, which ensures the efficiency of your practice to the greatest extent. She doesn't want people to know her identity because she is worried about revealing that she has a healing miracle.
Prescription, right? Now that the demon clan is no longer around, a prescription that can help you practice hard and still maintain a good physical condition is probably worth a thousand minks, so I'm a little tempted."
Yu Han was startled: "Senior..."
"Don't be nervous, it's just a joke." Xia Yi said: "Swing the knife at me with all your strength."
Yu Han hesitated for a moment and responded respectfully.
The power of the holy soul surged, and a black light appeared behind him, condensing a huge shadow of books: the sword wielder! He held the sword in both hands and slashed hard with the sword!
Xia Yi showed a hint of surprise and raised his right hand to catch the sword light that broke through the air! After a moment of silence, he patted Yu Han on the shoulder: "You are a real genius. I take back what I said before. Even if you don't have the opportunity, you
She won’t be lost to everyone, but her growth will be a little bumpy. Do you want to use her hidden cards at critical moments? You should tell Guan Cheng that you really don’t need to be my disciple to marry her."
"I want to defeat Guan Zhen and give her a surprise." Yu Han said with a smile.
Xia Yi nodded, turned and left.
The gap between four-star and five-star cultivations is even greater. The fifth-level Palm Sword Master Transcendent really cannot allow Yu Han to condense the Yuheng Star. It can only raise his cultivation level to the peak of four stars.
It seems that his future is cut off and he is at his peak at this time, but this kid is making big news quietly! When Xia Yi tested it just now, he found that his sword wielder has reached the fifth level of peak mastery! He thought
With a four-star body and a sixth-level holy soul, he became an unprecedented transcendent across two levels!
"What a great guy, I'm really tempted to take on a disciple." On the way back, Xia Yi felt a little emotional. When he returned to the inn, he immediately put on a playful expression.
Go up to the second floor and knock on the door.
"Shi Lai, Jing Jing, are you up?"
"It's time! Are you up?"
"Grandpa?" A vague reply came from inside, and then the volume quickly increased, "Ah! Wait! Right now!"
More than a minute passed before Shi Lai, fully dressed, opened the door and came out.
"Jingjing is still sleeping... Grandpa, did you do it on purpose?" Shi Lai gritted his teeth and asked.
"Ah? What's intentional?" Xia Yi smiled and said, "Did you have a good rest last night?"
Last night? Shi Lai blushed instantly. He almost died when he slept on a chair in the first half of the night, and almost died when he slept in a bed in the second half of the night... Looking at Xia Yi's playful expression, he gritted his teeth and said, "I'm so embarrassed!"
Xia Yi laughed: "You kid, why don't you take advantage of me? I slept on the street all night just for you, and you still blame me?"
Sleeping on the street? I was a little touched for a while, but after thinking about it, it was really hard to blame Xia Yi. He paused for a few seconds and said: "You, please don't do this again."
Xia Yi asked: "Are you sure?"
He hesitated for a moment, made a noise, and scratched his hair: "There's something wrong, grandpa, I took over a task in the prison. The uncle next door is a poor man. A few years ago, his children were robbed beside him, and his wife
I also ran away because of this incident..."
"The topic was changed very abruptly."
After a pause, he continued: "In short, he is very pitiful. He spent all his money and went out to look for him. He found it all the way to Xiangyang City and found a district magistrate. The investigation could not be continued. He was also arrested for wandering outside the district magistrate's house.
Caught..."
"You want me to save him?" Xia Yi asked.
"Well, that's not the case. He was just nagging me. He won't be locked up for long. I wanted to help him because of the mission." Shi Lai said.
"If you keep talking, won't you be able to shut it up for a long time?"
Xia Yi thought for a while and sighed: "You are still a little immature. I'm afraid he is worried that he will die in prison. Things have to be known, and he doesn't want to drag you down, so he didn't say more."
"……die?"
"Didn't you tell me? He found it at the district magistrate's house." Xia Yi said, "Let's go into the house and talk about it in detail. Jingjing should have tidied up."
Shi Lai's face turned red again, and he glared angrily at Xia Yi, who had a smile in his eyes. After a moment, he recovered and said with some worry: "You said so..."
…
On the other side, Yu Han returned home not long ago.
A beautiful woman with a plump figure walked into his house. The woman was holding a medicine bowl in one hand and a jade pestle in the other hand. She kept pounding the medicine in the bowl so that the medicine blended into one and the original medicine could not be distinguished.
The ingredients turned into a pitch black mass.
"Han'er, these two days are the days when the Holy Court is closed for rest, why didn't you come home all night?"
"Yu Gu." Yu Han explained: "Senior Xia Yi came to Xiangyang City, and Cheng'er dragged me to become his disciple, so I didn't return."
"...Xia Yi?" Yugu looked at him.
Yu Han quickly said: "I didn't become a master. Although Yu Gu, you don't want me to call you teacher, but the only master in Yu Han's heart is you!"
Yugu shook her head and said: "Silly boy, you have missed the opportunity. I am weak and only have the ability to make medicine. How can I compare with Xia Yi? Moreover, I am about to travel far away. I don't know whether I will come back in the future.
I came here this time to say goodbye to you."
Yu Han was shocked: "Where are you going?"
Aunt Yu smiled and said, "I don't know. Wherever I go, just take it."
