Chapter 68 Grudges
Yunzhi looked at him with a forced smile: "If you don't believe me, go and ask."
Mo Wuyou was a suspicious person to begin with, and after hearing what Yunzhi said, he began to believe it a little.
If Yunzhi's words were false, they could be easily exposed.
She didn't have to lie.
"I was wrong. I originally thought that you were at least more attractive than those mediocre women, at least you could be a competitor. I didn't expect Ji Yue to be so picky and still look down on you."
"Well, if that's the case, then let's stop here."
Yunzhi lowered her eyes and said, "Yes, you think too highly of me. Can you let me go now?"
Mo Wuyou: "Go, where are you going?"
Yunzhi: "Where do you think I'm going? I want to go back to the north. What am I staying here for?"
Mo Wuyou smiled and said, "Why are you in such a hurry? The sacrificial ceremony officially begins tonight, and this is only the first day. There are five days in total. It's not too late for you to leave on the fifth day at least. If you go back now, Master will probably think I didn't treat you well enough if he knew."
Yunzhi couldn't understand: "What on earth are you planning? Stop using the so-called brotherhood between master and disciple to do things. Why are you stopping me from going back? You might as well be frank."
"Junior Sister, you're really impatient." Mo Wuyou didn't answer her directly, but with a smile on his face: "Let's find a place to eat here first, and then go back after watching the sacrificial performance. You haven't seen a sacrificial performance, have you? And the various snacks set up by the vendors at night. You probably haven't seen anything that you females would like to eat-"
Yunzhi turned her head and interrupted him: "That's enough. I'm not interested in those performances or food. I just want to go back and rest."
Mo Wuyou restrained his smile and said, "Junior Sister, you are really hard to please."
Yunzhi said sarcastically, "Are you trying to please me now? How come I can't see it?"
Mo Wuyou sighed, "I've never been so nice to any female before. I personally ordered breakfast to be prepared early in the morning, and even planned to accompany you to watch a show, but you didn't even appreciate it."
Yunzhi was speechless.
She really didn't know that a person could be so shameless. He was blatantly using her from beginning to end, yet still pretending that it was all for her good.
She was full of admiration for this.
Since Yunzhi didn't want to stay here, Mo Wuyou had the carriage drive back to the door of his house.
As soon as Yunzhi got off the carriage, she went in. She returned to her room and closed the door with a snap.
Then she relaxed completely, packed up her bag, and planned to slip away tonight.
If she didn't make an appointment to find Ji Yue tomorrow, and Ji Yue sent someone over, it would be even more difficult for her to escape.
So tonight is a perfect opportunity.
Just have to avoid those big men patrolling in the yard.
Suddenly, Yunzhi's gaze stopped on the table, where there was still half a cup of tea left.
Oh, right, that mermaid.
If she ran away, the mermaid would be dead and no one would save him.
Logically speaking, Yunzhi shouldn't be involved in such trivial matters. He couldn't even protect himself, so how could he be able to save others?
But from an emotional point of view, knowing that a living mermaid would be quietly chopped into pieces before my eyes and then eaten by these people is hard to believe.
Yunzhi felt creepy.
Especially since she has come into contact with a real mermaid, Su Yu, in real life.
Mermaids are not mindless species. On the contrary, they are the same as ordinary orcs. However, due to the greed of some people, they become food for others.
What's the difference between this and eating people alive?
Of course, Yunzhi is not crazy.
It was impossible for a weakling like her to save such a big mermaid under the eyes of so many people.
So she could only look for opportunities to help the mermaid, such as healing its wounds and letting it escape on its own.
"Bang bang"
There was a knock on the door: "Junior sister, come out for dinner."
Yunzhi: "No, I'm not hungry."
Mo Wuyou: "Are you kidding? You haven't eaten lunch yet. Come out now, or I'll kick the door open."
Yunzhi was really about to laugh at this man. She stood up, opened the door suddenly, and looked at him coldly.
Mo Wuyou walked in and noticed the packed bag placed beside her bed.
He raised his eyebrows: "Junior Sister, are you really planning to leave here?"
Yunzhi lied: "I will leave early tomorrow morning."
Mo Wuyou looked at her for a long time before speaking: "I won't let you go, you'd better give up this idea."
Yunzhi's expression changed slightly. "Why on earth do you insist on keeping me here? I've already done everything you asked me to do. Isn't that enough?"
Mo Wuyou's face was calm: "No reason, if you want to blame someone, just blame the fact that you are the disciple accepted by the master. If he could accept more disciples, I wouldn't have to force you to stay alone."
"After the sacrificial ceremony is over, that is, on the fifth day, I will take you back to the south."
Yunzhi felt a chill in her heart when she heard this: "What on earth are you going to do?"
Mo Wuyou: "Don't you understand yet? From the moment you set foot here, I will not let you go easily."
"You did this because I am the master's apprentice."
Something suddenly flashed through Yunzhi's mind.
"Are you targeting Master?"
Mo Wuyou: "Master is my adopted parent. Without him, I wouldn't be alive today. How could I target him? Little Junior Sister, where did you come to this conclusion?"
"If you're not targeting the Master, why are you making things difficult for a stranger like me who you just met?"
Yunzhi immediately understood that she, the unlucky girl, had become the punching bag between the master and the disciple.
"No matter what grudges you have with Master, you two can be honest with each other and have a good chat. Master thinks highly of you and often tells me how promising you are. Most of what's going on between you and Master is just a misunderstanding."
Mo Wuyou chuckled: "You know nothing, yet you're trying to persuade me like an old woman. It's better to save your energy and eat first."
Yunzhi was really convinced.
It seemed that he knew clearly that she knew nothing.
Did he really have to trick an innocent person like her who knew nothing?
If you want to take revenge on Zhou Feng, just take revenge on him directly if you have the guts. Why take it out on her?
Yunzhi ate two large bowls of rice as if to vent her anger, and did not communicate with Mo Wuyou throughout the whole process.
Just then, a man came over and said a few words into Mo Wuyou's ear.
Yunzhi was far away and didn't hear anything, but she accurately caught the word "mermaid".
Mo Wuyou snorted coldly, "Want to die? Bring him the best hemostatic medicine."
The man bent down, nodded, and immediately retreated.
