Qingguan Nightmare Shadow

Nie Cang: "Don't call me 'Master' from now on, just call me 'Teacher'."

Yuchiling was stunned and said, "Why?"

Nie Cang did not speak bluntly, and said: "During the days when I was in seclusion, you managed and controlled the strange affairs in the capital for me, and you made the face of my teacher." Yuchi and his wife heard that there was a compliment in the words of the national teacher, and their eyes met Afterwards, Mingshuang blessed Fushen, and Yuchi Ling said: "Since you have accepted me as an apprentice, I must fulfill my due duties and not set up gate walls."

"If you do a good job, it will make the face of my family; if you don't do it well, or behave improperly, it will hurt your own reputation," Nie Cang said, "That's what I asked you to call me. The reason for 'teacher'." Every word he said, Yu Chiling could hear and understand clearly, but the meaning behind the words made him puzzled.

Mingshuang said: "Please tell me clearly what Master Guoshi wants to teach my husband."

Nie Cang's chin was still slightly raised, and he only glanced at the two of them sideways: "'Teacher' teaches people skills, passes on knowledge, and students know every thread of their lives is enough; 'Master' is beyond righteousness , You should also encourage your disciples to inherit their beliefs and fulfill their responsibilities as elders so that disciples will be upright in their hearts, and honor and glory should also be humiliated and humiliated."

Yu Chiling knew that Nie Cang found himself today not to use his understanding to draw a dry line between "teacher" and "master"; The family has been passed down for a hundred years, and accepting one apprentice has its own rules. As an outsider, I can get a glimpse of it, and no matter it is all or a corner, I must kneel and thank Master... I must kneel and thank Teacher for his kindness in preaching."

Nie Cang shook his head, looking more and more like an old man in his forties.

At this time, Yu Chiling and Yuchi Mingshuang also saw that something was wrong with Nie Cang, but it was difficult to explain clearly.Nie Cang: "It's good if you understand. If you rely on the 'power' of your family to do something wrong, you will bear the consequences yourself." Although Yu Chiling no longer judges people with his nose like before, he still faces To Nie Cang, it is too obedient.He trembled, he wanted to kneel down, but Nie Cang held him back.

Yuchi Mingshuang's eyes froze for a moment, and then his eyes drooped. He didn't look directly at Nie Cang, but only stared sideways at Nie Cang's hem.

Yuchi Ling said seriously: "I don't know, the teacher noticed something wrong with the apprentice's behavior, so that he came here to wake up?"

Nie Cang pulled his sleeves, stretched out his hand to catch Yuchiling's pulse: "The aura in your body is impure, not all acquired according to the method I passed on to you." After this, Yuchiling finally understood, and retracted his hand. , said cautiously: "The apprentice is eager to learn miscellaneous studies... When the breath is full, I will replace the impure breath."

Nie Cang smiled suddenly: "Miscellaneous learning? You dare to call this kind of thing 'miscellaneous learning' in front of me?" Before Yu Chiling withdrew his hand, Nie Cang used his fingers to force out a trace of breath in his body, and now he is twisting Show it to Yuchi Ling at the fingertips.Seeing this, Yuchiling's face paled a lot, and he turned his head slightly to look elsewhere.

"To change or not to change is what you think in your heart, not to fool me," Nie Cang said. "From now on, it doesn't matter if you change or not, what does it matter to me? You treasure the monster's things and treat them as The treasure that helps you take shortcuts, if something happens in the future, what does it have to do with me? I am your 'teacher', not your 'master'."

Yu Chiling lightly brushed Kai Mingshuang's hand holding his arm, his tone was no longer so soft, and said: "Teacher, you didn't say that before."

Nie Cang's action was even weirder: he even stroked the beard that didn't exist on his lips.

"Oh? Then what did I say before?"

Yuchi ordered: "Wizard practice, different paths lead to the same goal."

Nie Cang said with a smile: "Did I say this before my 'retreat', or after I've 'retreat'?" Yu Chiling: "You...before the retreat. Besides, didn't you also merge into that tree... ..." It sounded like he was unwilling, and in desperation, he used the tone of a child "blaming" an adult, "If you can, why can't I".

Nie Cang said: "Then, this idiot saying 'different routes lead to the same goal' was said by my little apprentice, not me?"

Yun Li choked when he heard it, but luckily he held it back and didn't cough out any sound.

Yuchiling took Mingshuang back, his eyes were engraved with "Who are you?!"

Nie Cang's young face showed an elder-like "Hexi" smile, and suddenly, a figure formed by "fog" wrapped him up, and then the figure disappeared, and everything returned to normal, nothing was affected.There was only one heartbeat between the figure's "appearance" and "invisibility".

Because of this, Yuchi Ling's heartbeat missed this beat.

With the afterimages in his eyes, Yunli discerned the image of an old man in the "fog".Then he realized that it wasn't fog at all, but the primordial spirit occupying this body: the primordial spirit of Master Shaman.Just when Yunli roughly guessed what happened during Nie Cang's "retreat", Yu Chiling also understood, and said coldly: "So it's Master." The above is sullen after knowing that he has been cheated.

Nie Cang smiled and said: "What kind of master, it's a teacher."

Yuchi Ling: "Is he dead?"

In order to explain it more vividly, the mist flashed again.What the mist presents this time is not the silhouette of the old man just now, but a young man with his eyes closed who seems to be sleeping soundly.Only the silhouette of a young man can overlap with this body.Nie Cang said indifferently: "My apprentice knows that he can correct his mistakes, so he gave my life back. If you make a mistake, can you apologize in an impeccable way like him? This is why I don't want you to call me 'Master' ' The second reason."

Hearing that the other party was still taunting him, Yuchi subconsciously used his inner power to hold a dark green light blade.

Nie Cang took a step forward and grabbed Yu Chiling's wrist, glanced at Mingshuang, and then looked back: "He didn't die, and I didn't accept his life. I just let him fall asleep from time to time to correct my apprentice's mistakes." , my apprentice’s apprentice’s mistake.” With no effort, Nie Cang snuffed out the light blade, “Also, even if ‘different paths lead to the same goal’ is true, my apprentice has already proved that a certain path is dead, why do you have to retake it? What about once?"

Yuchi Ling pushed him away: "I don't want to..."

Nie Cang: "I haven't blocked you yet, why didn't you say it? Apprentice, do you want to explain to me, or don't you want to explain to me?" Then, the old eyes in Nie Cang disappeared, The Qingming of youth takes its place.The arc of his lips, which seemed to be a smile but not a smile, faded away and stretched into a sharp straight line.

Yuchi Ling: "Master!"

"Didn't you say don't call me 'Master'? You just forgot what I said just now?" Nie Cang couldn't go anywhere, but wanted to get in between Yuchi Ling and Yuchi Mingshuang.Yu Chiling stared at his back, and suddenly understood that the two souls in Nie Cang's body had reached an agreement on how to treat him.

"teacher."

"En." Nie Cang rolled up his sleeves, leaned back, and turned his head to answer Yuchi's order.Yuchiling didn't expect him to agree so quickly, and he didn't think clearly about what he wanted to say; seeing that he was silent, he straightened his back and walked towards the banquet.After walking a few steps, Nie Cang didn't look back, staring at the front and said: "From now on, your family is separated, the teacher often comes to see you."

Mingshuang cast a questioning look at Yuchiling, Yuchiling shook his head, supported his wife's shoulder, and returned to the banquet as if nothing had happened.

Nie Cang took a small path, and there was a side door at the end of the path.Seeing him going towards the side door, Yun Li thought he was going back to the National Teacher's Mansion, so he stopped following him, thought for a moment, and prepared to go back and find Su Tong first.Without warning, a gust of cold wind blows behind him, and when he regains consciousness, Nie Cang is already standing behind him.

A cold voice said: "Are you not dead?"

The spell obviously didn't work, and Nie Cang could find him, it should be based on the aura on the spell that they are connected with each other.

Nie Cang stepped closer, and the "broken sword" suddenly lay across in front of him.

Seeing the other party's eyes dim, Yun Li heard him murmuring insanely: "That belongs to my senior brother, that belongs to my senior brother..." Yun Li knew what he was talking about, and his first reaction was to leave the broken wizard behind. The note for him was protected together with the spell, but Nie Cang's empty eyes pricked him, and he automatically handed the spell to him.

Nie Cang caught a glimpse of him leaving a note, snatched it over to take a look, and when she looked up again, her face was covered in tears.He threw the note back, walked a few steps, turned around and stuffed the charm back together.

Nie Cang sneered, "Your yours...he gave it to you, not to me."

Yun Li didn't pay attention to him anymore, and walked back along the way, only to see Su Tong coming towards him.Yun Li stopped walking, stuck in the road, secretly wondering if Su Tong would bump into him; thinking to himself, Su Tong seemed to see someone in front of him, and stopped just right: "Yun Li?"

"..."

As long as the broken wizard is still there, no matter how many times he scolds "Your spell is an inferior product", he will not feel guilty.

Yunli: "Why are you here?"

Su Tong followed his arm, touched his hand, and held it firmly with [-]% strength: "Looking for you." In the past, as long as he could hold his face and mouth, he would never express his thoughts too clearly; Now, in order to repeatedly prove that he is not dreaming and that Yun Li will not disappear without a trace, it is like a different person.Although it hurts, but Yun Liren held him, and said in a relaxed tone: "Why are you looking for me... Those adults and wives allow you to go?"

"Xing Yin is back, but you didn't come back." Su Tong said, "I didn't go back, I was waiting for you at the place just now."

At this time, Su Tong found someone, and he was also found.

The wife who was at the same table with him waited for a long time for his "good son-in-law", but when no one came, the three "horse-pulling" ropes were twisted into one, and they came looking for him with great momentum.Yunli thought that in the future, those lords and wives would be disappointed, and he would not suffer any disadvantages, so he generously pushed Su Tong away, and let the three wives who disregarded his image just to choose a son-in-law carry him back.

"Master Su sober?"

"It doesn't matter if you don't wake up, our master said, how can we do it today if we don't get drunk?"

"My master and Mr. Su have seen each other often in court. Now that we are sitting at the same table, how can there be any reason not to toast to each other?"

The three wives thought they had drunk too, dragging Su Tong didn't seem to ask him to see their daughter, but rather asked him to pay for flower wine.Fortunately, the wives did not go the wrong way, otherwise, when they walked around the whole Yuchi Mansion with their voices raised, my master would have no face to sit still and drink.

Yun Li wandered around the banquet, seeing the expressions of Yuchi Ling, Yuchi Mingshuang, Chongzhou prefect, and the prefect's wife one by one.Not only Yuchiling and Mingshuang, but Chongzhou prefect and his wife also acted nonchalantly. I don't know if they asked their son what he said when he was called out by the national teacher.

Yun Li leaned against the corner, until the moon had risen for a long time, and there was no sign of "let him go" at Su Tong's table.Although the "wailing of the female ghost" mostly happened in the middle of the night, it was true after all, and the guests did not dare to stay outside at night, and began to bid farewell to the newcomers one after another.In Yunli's peripheral vision, Luo Rong got up and bowed to the civil and military scholars, and left without waiting for Su Tong.If he followed Jiang Yan and the others, it wouldn't matter if he didn't wait for Su Tong, but it was hard for Yun Li not to doubt him when he left alone.

Fortunately, not long after Luo Rong left, Su Tong escaped.Yun Li pulled him straight out without saying a word, and waited until Luo Rong's back was clearly discernible before saying, "Do you know what I smelled on Luo Rong? The smell of 'that tree'." Thinking of eight years ago The scene where Yunli disappeared into the barrier in an instant, Su Tong frowned: "That tree under the lotus pond?"

"Yes……"

"Do you think Luo Rong..."

"I don't have any definite idea, I just think it's strange that that smell appeared on him." Yun Li said, "Oh, yes, that tree is my aunt." Su Tong was startled, and Yun Li smiled and said: "It's a long story. I will have time to tell you stories slowly. I just want to say that the 'thing' that took me away has nothing to do with that tree. You don't have to think too badly about my aunt, and you don't have to think Luo Rong thinks about this matter too seriously." Hearing what he said, Su Tong stopped, straightened Yunli's face, and looked at his forehead.

Yun Li brushed him away and led him to keep up with Luo Rong: "Don't worry about it, the mark is gone. My mother saved me at that time and took me to the Nine Heavens to heal my wounds... My mother is a very good person, you must You need to see my mother. Oh, and, don't see my father, my father is too easy to lead children away."

……

When not talking, the streets are extraordinarily quiet.

Only two footsteps could be heard.

Footsteps... from two people.

Just when Yunli realized something, Su Tong pinched his palm, and the two stopped at the same time. "Luo Rong" was still walking ahead, silently, without any shadows under his feet.Yun Li glanced at the ground: He and Su Tong had shadows under the moonlight.

No wonder.

No wonder Luo Rong's posture didn't change after walking for so long; no wonder the street was so empty after the banquet, no one else was there.The problem is not with Luo Rong, but with the "person" who pretended to be Luo Rong.I don't know when it started, the two of them were no longer following Luo Rong, but the "imitator" who led them into a trap.The "imitator" copied the image in the eyes of Yunli and Su Tong at the beginning, and constructed a huge enchantment.

The "broken sword" dinged into the ground, and the flowing spiritual power formed a ring, floating up and down around the two of them.

The pain in memory made Yunli sharpen.

Those guys.

The group of guys who tore him apart.

The sense of fear was uncontrollable, Yun Li couldn't breathe, he had to open his mouth, asking for a mouthful of cool air from the icy barrier.The injured internal organs seemed to be stirring, trying to push the outer shell of the body to escape as soon as possible.Su Tong pressed him on his chest and asked him to close his eyes, while she raised her eyes to look at "Luo Rong" who turned around slowly in front of her.Yun Li pushed Su Tong's shoulder, pretending that he was just having a nightmare, turned around and opened his eyes, just in time to meet the gaze of "Luo Rong".

The mask shattered, revealing the terrifying true face.

The so-called terrifying does not mean that the other party has nothing to do with the broken and ferocious appearance, but refers to the coolness seeping out of his eyes.Yun Li guessed right, it was the "Mr" in front of him who was unwilling to end up together with the evil spirits.

Xu Zhen.

Yun Li twitched the corner of his mouth: "Mr. Xu's new ideas really come out endlessly."

Unexpectedly, Xu Zhen took a few steps forward, rolled up his sleeves suddenly, knelt on the ground, and kowtowed three times in succession.He was originally born feminine, "yin is dominant and soft is secondary", but now that he has been "indulged" in the underworld, his face is even colder.When he kowtowed, every time he got up, he had a coy expression on his face. It seemed that the whole person was like a resentful woman who was forced to be punished after making a mistake;

Xu Zhen supported the ground with one hand, and when he got up, he was unsteady and turned to the side.

His right sleeve is almost empty.

Xu Zhen stepped back a few feet, and said with a sneer, "I hurt Young Master Yun, Zi Hua-jun took off my arm to be vigilant. Now I kowtow to make amends, and I hope that Mr. Yun will be more generous, so that next time Mr. Zi Hua unfortunately meets me, Don't get angry and take off my other arm."

Not to mention the sincerity, Xu Zhen's superficial skills don't seem to come to make amends.

What's more, if you do such a thing, can you get forgiveness by kowtowing three times?

Xu Zhen said: "Everyone has their own difficulties, don't they... I treated Mr. Yun like that before, and I was eager to save him. I didn't know how to handle the knife, so I almost let Mr. Yun... Oh, Mr. Su, didn't I apologize? Mr. Yun didn't even look at me like that, what does your look mean?"

Yunli looked around, but didn't perceive the existence of other "things".

Xu Zhen seemed to come alone.

Xu Zhen smiled and said: "Young Master Su and Young Master Yun, you two don't need to be nervous. You have seen Jun Zi Hua's ability before you go down. Even if you have the courage of a bear, you don't dare to touch a hair of Young Master Yun again. Oh, say Come to be sad, Mr. Zi Hua took the lives of many little ghosts, and now I have no one to rely on, and no one dares to help me any more." As he spoke, he got short and knelt down again: "Mr. Yunli, Su Young master, I am here this time to save you some trouble."

"..."

Xu Zhen tidied up the tattered clothes and let them spread out on the ground: "Of course, besides that, I also want you two to be perfect. It's not easy, it's not easy in the three realms."
