Butler Zhao, who used to rely on the Gu family and was arrogant, was severely punished by the young master Gu who came back from outside!

The news spread quickly throughout Qingxie Town as if it had grown wings.

In the streets and alleys, people can be heard everywhere discussing the events of that day.Those who were present at that time were elated and talked eloquently; those who were not present heard hearsay and added fuel and vinegar. In short, everyone praised Young Master Gu for being young and capable, but the existence of Miss Lin and her "brother" was ignored by coincidence.

For Lin Xiaodong, this is a good thing.

Although there is the help of [One-click Dress Up], this skill is not omnipotent after all, and there is a cooling time limit.Besides, in case someone gets to the bottom of it, he can't let "Miss Lin" and "Miss Lin's brother" appear in two places at the same time, right?

As for the butler, since he was exposed in public that day, he certainly has no face to stay in the house anymore.

Gu Xingzhai ordered him to repay all the money that he had been greedy for within ten days. He was so frightened that he packed up his belongings overnight and prepared to run away with his wife and children. However, the owner of the cloth shop who took the opportunity to make trouble led him to arrest him on the side road. Locked in a prison, waiting to be released.

Thinking of the smug and flattering look of the owner of the cloth shop, Lin Xiaodong shook his head, and said to the system: "It is a skill to be able to be so shameless as a human being."

System: "You have to be careful."

"I know," Lin Xiaodong smiled, "This kind of villain who adapts to the wind will be very useful when you are in the gust of wind, but when the wind changes, he will also be the first to turn around and become a poker To that knife of yours. And of course, to him, too, no one ever has the wind.”

The three good person cards are all collected, and the other one is definitely at Gu Xingzhai's place.For the remaining one, Lin Xiaodong went through the information several times, but he still couldn't find any key characters in the plot who didn't appear on the scene.

Could it be that the official who finally cut the heart of the succubus for longevity?

Anyway, Gu Xingzhai will definitely not report him now, Lin Xiaodong thought, there should be no such opportunity.

After today's free clinic ended, he politely declined the grateful gift from the patient's family, went to the market to buy a jar of drunk crabs and returned to Gu's mansion, and planned to have dinner with Gu Xingzhai—of course, the main reason was to find someone to peel the crabs for him legs.

But as soon as he stepped on the threshold with one foot, he felt that something seemed wrong.

Walking to the door of the study, sure enough, the door was closed in broad daylight, and there was a ten-year-old boy standing at the door.

The boy's clothes were tattered, with patches everywhere, and he was still holding a mahogany sword in his hand, his head was biting, as if he was dozing off.

Hearing the sound of footsteps, he raised his head in a daze: "Well... who is it? My master said, don't disturb the idlers, he has something important to talk to Patriarch Gu..."

But when he saw Lin Xiaodong's appearance, the sleepiness he had just felt instantly disappeared.

He jumped up from the ground as if his butt was on fire, and stammered with a blushing face, "Female, hello female benefactor!"

"Who are you?" Lin Xiaodong asked with raised eyebrows.

"I..." The boy didn't know what to think of, and the eyes he looked at Lin Xiaodong suddenly changed, with a bit of vigilance mixed with obsession.He held the mahogany sword tightly in his arms, shook his head, refused to answer this question, but insisted: "My master and Mr. Gu are both inside, you can't go in."

"Really?" Lin Xiaodong twitched the corner of his mouth, "Then, what if I want to go in anyway?"

"you!"

Xiaotong didn't expect that Lin Xiaodong would actually have the guts to rush in. He clenched the mahogany sword in his hand and said loudly: "Don't force me to be tough! I, I, I will not be soft on women!"

Lin Xiaodong just wanted to laugh when he saw that the little radish, who was not as tall as his own chest, had a stern look on his face.But jokes are jokes, he still has a little bit of vigilance about the mahogany sword in the boy's hand.

"System, what is the origin of this sword?"

"It's turned on," the system said, "it can't hurt anyone, but it's not necessarily true for you."

"Who is making noise outside? Cheng Min, didn't I tell you to stay outside and not allow anyone to come in and disturb me!"

He was chatting with the system, but before he recovered his senses, suddenly the door of the study was pushed open from the inside, and a thin gray-robed Taoist priest strode out.He had a pair of sharp eyes like a falcon, and he locked on to the location of Lin Xiaodong in an instant, and Lin Xiaodong couldn't help being stunned the moment he saw him.

Did this person show up at Master Huang's ball?

Those eyes left a deep impression on him, so Lin Xiaodong immediately remembered it.

However, the grey-robed Taoist priest was not very friendly to him. He suddenly dragged his apprentice to his side, and stared at Lin Xiaodong with an extremely cold and disgusting gaze: "Don't be fooled! What kind of woman is this? The spirit-absorbing demon!"

As the gray-robed Taoist said, he made a gesture to draw out the mahogany sword pinned to his waist, but Gu Xingzhai, who came out from behind him, held down his wrist.

"Senior," the man clenched his jaw, and there was a hint of anger between his brows, "I told you just now, you are not allowed to shoot him! Xiaodong has never harmed anyone, and has even been helping to treat people in Qingxie Town. Resident, what is he guilty of?"

"You have been bewitched by this demon!" the gray-robed Taoist raised his voice resentfully.

"Where in the world is there a goblin that doesn't harm people? Gu Xingzhai, Gu Xingzhai, have you forgotten the teachings of your master? Are you worthy of those seniors who died in the capital!"

"I can guarantee it with my life," Gu Xingzhai stared at him closely, refusing to let go of the strength in his hand, the man said word by word, "If I really betrayed the teachings of my ancestors and worked with demons to seek financial harm Fate, tell me to be struck by lightning from the sky, and I will die without a whole body!"

The gray-robed Taoist choked, seeing this, Gu Xingzhai continued: "Senior, I also understand the purpose of your coming to me today, but I still say the same thing: Unless I die, I will not let anyone touch him. I, Gu Xingzhai, have not married for more than twenty years, and I have no plans to marry a wife in the future, but as long as I believe it, I don't care whether he is a man or a woman, a human or a demon."

He took a deep breath, and under the disbelieving gaze of the gray-robed Taoist priest, he said lightly: "The master gate you mentioned, I will personally take Xiaodong to meet the master at that time, if the old man agrees, that's fine. If you object, then I will waste all my kung fu on the spot and kneel at the door of his old man's house for three days and three nights, and I will live and die from now on, and have nothing to do with the teacher!"

"You, you..." The gray-robed Taoist priest pointed at him, speechless for a moment, his fingers were shaking with anger.

And the little boy next to him was already dumbfounded.

In this era, apprenticeship is an extremely sacred thing, and the status of a master is even equal to the father of rebirth, and Gu Xingzhai, as one of the best among the younger generation of demon slayers, as long as there are no accidents, he will become a master in the future .

But now he actually said that he wants to abolish his martial arts and leave the school?

Especially after the three-year turmoil, their line of work was not accepted. The gray-robed Taoist priest thought that Gu Xingzhai had accidentally fallen into the evil way, so he kindly came to remind him.Who would have thought that he would actually be willing!

"Forget it," he shook his sleeve angrily, "I'm not your master anyway, since you've made up your mind, then I can't control it. Just do it for yourself, don't end up with nothing in your life!"

"Cheng Min, let's go!"

When the little boy was stunned, the gray-robed Taoist priest had strode out of the courtyard.He hastily ran to catch up with the mahogany sword: "Master, wait for me!"

Watching the backs of the pair of master and apprentice disappear outside the courtyard wall, Lin Xiaodong withdrew his gaze, and when he turned his head, he saw Gu Xingzhai, who was still aggressive just now, with a frozen face, looking at him with a With a cautious tentativeness.

"Xiaodong, you...are you not angry?"

Lin Xiaodong came back to his senses, smiled at him, picked up the crab in his hand, turned around and left.

"Xiao Dong!"

Gu Xingzhai was in a hurry, and immediately ran after him, explaining to him as he walked: "This person is from the Maoshan School, and has some connections with my ancestors, but he has stopped communicating with him in recent years, and I don't know why he would Come to me. Maybe I saw you misunderstood at the last dance..."

"I have already expressed my attitude to him, but you also know that people tend to be stubborn when they are old. When we were talking, he kept insisting that I was bewitched by you, that's why I wanted to do something to you just now Don't worry, I will definitely not let him in next time!"

"I'm not angry," Lin Xiaodong stopped and looked at him helplessly, "I just want to bring the crabs to the back kitchen for them to deal with, don't think too much about it."

"...That's it."

But after Lin Xiaodong left, Gu Xingzhai suddenly remembered something——

This marinated drunk crab... what else needs to be done?

the other side.

"Master, let's leave like this?" Xiaotong said with a frustrated face, "Shouldn't you stay at Gu's house for a few more days? It's rare to meet a rich man who buys you, and he still calls you senior, and that sister looks so good. Beautiful...and I wasted a whole day, didn't even have a full meal, and you said before that you would buy me new clothes for the New Year."

"What a beauty! That's a demon!" The gray-robed Taoist was so angry that his nose was crooked, and he slapped him on the back of the head, "Look at how promising you are! How did I teach you back then? You can't be short-sighted if you are poor. ! Although we are poor, we have backbone!"

After the words fell, a passerby stopped in front of their booth, dropped a piece of silver and asked, "Taoist, do you want to tell fortunes?"

"Forget it, forget it!" The gray-robed Taoist priest was overjoyed, his solicitousness stunned the little boy next to him who was about to be moved.

After the guest had left, he quietly asked: "Master, do you have to have a backbone?"

"You earn a living based on your skills, why don't you have a backbone?" The gray-robed Taoist said confidently, "You kid is talking a lot of nonsense today, just walk around, I just made a fortune, I'll take you to buy new clothes, okay?"

The little boy immediately smiled and said, "Thank you, Master!"

When they arrived at the nearest cloth store, the owner of the cloth shop was lying on the counter. Seeing that they were dressed like poor ghosts, he immediately lost interest: "If you don't buy it, don't touch it. If you touch it dirty, you will lose money."

"C'mon, dogs look down on people," the little boy cursed in a low voice, "My master is Mr. Huang's guest, what are you..."

"Cheng Min." The gray-robed Taoist priest looked at him disapprovingly, and then the little boy closed his mouth reluctantly, and concentrated on picking up the discounted ready-made clothes in the corner.

Seeing that they were only wandering around in the cheapest discount area, the owner of the cloth shop sneered, thinking that he was right, a poor ghost is a poor ghost, so he changed his position and continued to lie on his stomach.When he was drowsy, he heard the conversation between the poor Taoist priest and his apprentice:

"Master, Miss Lin is so beautiful, is she really a demon?"

"Yeah, don't you still miss her, kid?"

"That's not true, I was just thinking, Mr. Gu is quite courageous, daring to risk the world's disgrace for the person he likes."

"That's called courage? Pull it down, that's called Lengtouqing! Since ancient times, this kind of thing has never ended well... Oh, you kid, remember not to talk nonsense outside, do you hear me? Anyway, I'm also his master's generation , can't just watch such a good seed fall."

"Got it, Master, stop beating me on the head, I'm going to be so stupid."

The voice gradually faded away, it is estimated that the pair of master and apprentice walked further inside.

The cloth shop owner was still lying on the counter pretending to be asleep, but his heart was pounding in his chest.

He thought, that Miss Lin who was too beautiful to be real... turned out to be a demon?
