Chapter 549: Xingluo comes to serve the master
After Lin Xingluo followed Xu Ming into the inn.
Xu Ming arranged a room for Lin Xingluo.
At the beginning, Lin Xingluo thought that Xu Ming would do something to her.
Even Lin Xingluo had already made various preparations.
In Lin Xingluo's heart, it actually doesn't matter anymore.
It really doesn't matter.
After his father died, Lin Xingluo wanted to do his best to help the Xingxue Sect take charge of the overall situation.
But Lin Xingluo finally discovered that those people in Xingxue Sect only had themselves in their hearts.
They only think about themselves everywhere.
They don't have any sense of sect honor in their hearts at all.
Not to mention the sense of sect honor.
They even sold themselves and the Xingxue Sect.
In fact, these people have already found a way out.
And before they leave, they want to make greater profits for themselves!
But it doesn’t matter.
My father is already dead.
The mother whom I have never met no longer recognizes me.
As for the sister whom she had only heard of in rumors, she wanted to meet her.
But not long ago, Lin Xingluo had cut off contact with Qiang.
This means that the rumor about the Snow Country is not false.
In fact, the main purpose of the Snow Country's isolation this time is to sever the connection between itself and the country.
One thing is obvious, the Snow Country did it.
That is to say.
In this vast world, I no longer have any relatives of my own.
It’s not that Lin Xingluo hasn’t thought about committing suicide.
But the handcuffs on Lin Xingluo's feet showed that it was impossible for him to commit suicide.
Suicide?
How can I commit suicide?
Whenever I make up my mind to commit suicide, I feel a piercing pain.
Lin Xingluo was in so much pain that he had no strength left and couldn't move at all.
Knowing that you have given up the idea of committing suicide.
But this kind of pain will not kill Lin Xingluo.
For Lin Xingluo, death has become a luxury.
Never mind, let’s just leave it like this.
Just be someone's maid.
Just let others play with you.
It doesn't matter anymore.
“Click.”
Just when Lin Xingluo felt hopeless and was about to accept everything that happened to him.
The door opened.
Xu Ming walked into the room.
Watching this handsome young man walk into the room, the only thing Lin Xingluo felt fortunate about was that the person she was serving was of decent appearance.
Let’s not talk about personality first.
At least it doesn't look that disgusting.
"Eat something."
Xu Ming walked up to Lin Xingluo and placed a plate in front of the girl.
There is a bowl of noodles on the plate.
This bowl of noodles looks very good, and the braised beef on top exudes a fragrant aroma that whets one's appetite.
Lin Xingluo glanced at Xu Ming, then looked at the bowl of beef in front of her.
Lin Xingluo pursed her lips tightly, looked at Xu Ming in a trance, and asked a very straightforward question that Lin Xingluo had always wanted to ask:
"What do you think, sir?"
"What are you thinking?" Xu Ming was stunned for a moment, not knowing what the girl was going to say next.
"I mean," Lin Xingluo pinched her fingertips, "I am already the young master's slave, shouldn't the young master do something to me?"
“.”
Xu Ming looked at Lin Xingluo, speechless for a moment.
You'd say this girl has dirty thoughts, and they are indeed dirty.
She even seemed to have made some kind of preparation, ready to be done with that.
But if you say that this girl has normal thinking, then her thinking is quite normal.
Because if a person is bought, and is a really beautiful person, any normal person would definitely do something to the other person.
Not to mention that it cost such a huge amount of money.
And she grew up in the Western Region Demon Sect.
No matter how neutral the Xingxue Sect sounds in name, it does not seem like a demonic sect.
But such a place, and since the Xingxue Sect was classified as a demonic sect, she must have seen some of the deeds of those demons.
"Don't worry, for now, I don't plan to do anything to you."
Xu Ming said to Lin Xingluo.
"Young Master, you are not going to do anything to me?" Lin Xingluo blinked, wondering if he had heard it wrong.
You said you bought me here just to do something to me, right?
Aren’t you just trying to gain some benefits from my influence on the Snow Country?
to be honest.
If Xu Ming were to do something to Lin Xingluo, Lin Xingluo might feel better.
At least no matter what, all the things he was going to do to her were foreseeable to her.
He was mentally prepared for what he was going to do.
But he suddenly said he wouldn't do anything to himself.
This kind of unknown made Lin Xingluo feel even more fearful.
"Yes, I really don't intend to do anything to you."
Xu Ming actually knew what this girl was thinking about.
"When you followed us before, you must have heard the conversation between me and Mr. Lu. Although I don't know why Mr. Lu bought you, Mr. Lu said that you are of some value to me, which must be true.
It’s just that Mr. Lu is not the kind of person who would sacrifice another person for the sake of one person’s value.
If nothing unexpected happens, Mr. Lu should want to save you.
Mr. Lu also knows that you are in my hands and there is actually nothing happening to you, and you won’t encounter anything.
Because Mr. Lu knows what kind of person I am.
But if you are bought by someone else, then it is unclear what you will encounter.
No matter what, it's definitely not a good thing.
But okay.
I think Mr. Lu must have had other plans for saving you, but he just won't tell me."
“.”
Lin Xingluo lowered his head and remained silent.
"I haven't introduced myself yet. Let me introduce myself. My name is Xu Ming. I come from the Wu Kingdom in the Central Plains. Mr. Lu is a gentleman from the White Deer Academy."
“.”
In fact, Lin Xingluo already knew the other party's identity.
Because when Lin Xingluo followed them, they didn't hide anything at all.
"But Miss Lin, I didn't save you for no reason."
Xu Ming said to Lin Xingluo.
"It's a very simple matter. From now on, you are my maid. Although I won't do anything to you, if you want to regain your freedom, Miss Lin, then you must return me the same value as a fairy weapon.
In other words, it is thirty thousand high-quality spirit stones and a semi-immortal weapon.
The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!
Only in this way can I set you free, Miss Lin.
Of course, I will not fail to pay you, girl.
In our Wu country, even purchased slaves receive a certain salary every month.
From now on, one high-grade spirit stone per month will be your salary."
After saying this, without waiting for Lin Xingluo to refuse, which Lin Xingluo had no way to refuse, Xu Ming turned around and walked out of the room.
Just when Xu Ming was about to go back to his room, Lu Xiaoliu was already waiting at the door of Xu Ming's room.
Looking at Xu Ming, Lu Xiaoliu smiled and said, "I thought you would just let Lin Xingluo go."
"Mr. Lu has heard our conversation?" Xu Ming asked.
"Of course." Lu Xiaoliu said very openly, "I was lying at the door and listening just now. I heard it clearly."
As he spoke, Lu Xiaoliu smiled and said, "I originally wanted to hear whether you would do something to others like a beast, but I didn't expect that you, Junior Brother Xu, are even worse than a beast.
Such a beautiful girl, and you didn't do anything!"
"."Xu Ming no longer wanted to pay attention to what Lu Xiaoliu said.
After spending so many days with Lu Xiaoliu, Xu Ming has developed the habit of listening to Lu Xiaoliu's words separately.
"Alright, alright, stop joking." Looking at Xu Ming like this, Lu Xiaoliu felt quite bored being alone.
"But I am really curious, why did you do this, nephew? Why didn't you let her go? Not only did you not let her go, but you also let her become your maid. You should pay her a salary."
Lu Xiaoliu asked curiously.
"First, this is the maid that Mr. Lu gave me, so I already have the right to dispose of her."
Xu Ming explained to Lu Xiaoliu one sentence at a time.
"Secondly, the reason why I still took her in as a maid was just to give him hope."
"Give her a little hope. What does it mean to give her a little hope?"
Lu Xiaoliu was a little confused about what Xu Ming said.
"It's very simple. In my opinion, Lin Xingluo already has some thoughts of wanting to die.
No matter what, she is the daughter of the leader of a big sect.
He must have been living a life of luxury and pampering since childhood.
How could she possibly suffer such humiliation and be sold as an object? If it weren't for the shackles, she would have died countless times.
First of all, if she is let go, how long does Mr. Lu think she can live? She is just a cultivator in the Golden Core Realm. In front of others, she is a walking treasure, and her value is equal to that immortal weapon.
It can be said that if I let her go on the first day, she would fall into the hands of others on the second day, and then what kind of treatment would she encounter? It would definitely be worse than death.
And if I take her under my protection, why?
To me, she is not my friend, and I have no obligation to take care of her, let alone to protect her all the time.
And she must also understand one thing, that in today's world, it is a world where the strong prey on the weak.
Even though he was in the Demon Sect at that time, even though there were so many people protecting her and her father loved her so much, all that was now in the past.
His future destiny depends on his own efforts.
And if I always treat her as my maid and let her stay by my side, then for her this feeling of losing freedom, what is the difference between that and death? In comparison, I will give her some ideas, some hope, and let her think about what she should do.
No matter what, for a person, having thoughts is always better than having no thoughts.
Many times, just that small thought, just that small hope, is enough for people to hold on to, enough for people to be reborn.
Similarly, I also asked her to pay me back the money.
After all, no matter what, this was obtained by you, Mr. Lu, at the cost of an immortal weapon.
If I just let her go, wouldn't I be at a huge loss?"
“…”
Listen to what Xu Ming said, don't say anything.
Lu Xiaoliu felt that they all made sense.
That's true.
What Xu Ming said is right.
And everything Xu Ming did was actually within Lu Xiaoliu's expectations.
If you say.
If my nephew could be a saint and a good person.
Whether letting Lin Xingluo go or treating Lin Xingluo as a friend, Lu Xiaoliu would feel a little disappointed.
Because it's a very simple thing.
In this world, no one owes anyone anything.
Since she has been bought by Xu Ming, she must play a certain role.
Otherwise, how could she be reborn?
And only in this way can she understand her own value and create her own value, then she can continue to gain a foothold in this world.
Without going through all this, Lin Xingluo would never grow up.
"Okay, okay, what you said makes sense. I won't say anything more to you. She belongs to you anyway, and you can do whatever you want with her."
Lu Xiaoliu waved his hand and turned to leave.
Looking at Lu Xiaoliu's back, Xu Ming couldn't help but sigh.
He really didn't know what Mr. Lu was thinking about.
And what exactly is Mr. Lu's relationship with Lin Xingluo? Is he just pitying her?
But this matter can only be known in the future, anyway, it will be revealed slowly.
The next morning, when Xu Ming got up, the first thing he saw when he opened his eyes was Lin Xingluo standing in front of him.
Xu Ming saw Lin Xingluo holding a tray of water and slowly said to Xu Ming: "Master, I will help you wash up."
Listening to Lin Xingluo's words, Xu Ming felt a little uncomfortable for a moment.
But soon, Xu Ming remembered what he said at that time.
"OK."
Xu Ming nodded and did not refuse.
Xu Ming sat upright on the bed.
Lin Xingluo wrung out the towel clumsily, then wiped Xu Ming's face.
When Lin Xingluo was wiping Xu Ming's face, Lin Li was still a little nervous in his heart.
For the girl, this was the first time in her life that she served someone else.
After washing up, Xu Ming wanted to put on his clothes, but Lin Xingluo was already standing beside him.
"Xingluo is here to help the master change his clothes."
