"My mother?" Lu Jingzhi didn't understand why Yan An was suddenly interested in his mother.
"Well, where is your mother from? And why did she marry into the Lu family?"
Lu Jingzhi thought about it. In the original owner's memory, his mother Mu Jin was rescued by Lu Cheng at the door of Lu's house. At that time, according to Lu Cheng's statement, his mother Mu Jin was seriously injured. After being rescued, she claimed that she had lost her memory. She knew nothing when asked. She only knew that her name was Mu Jin and she had the power of a mysterious spirit.
Later, Mu Jin stayed in the Lu family. After spending some time together, the two fell in love with each other and finally got married under the auspices of the old patriarch of the Lu family.
Afterwards, Lu Jingzhi told Yan An what happened, "Master, this is what happened to my parents."
Yan An pondered for a long time, "Do you know that your mother's Xuanling Realm is fake, and she knows about the Holy Land. I'm afraid your mother is not as simple as she seems."
Hearing this, Lu Jingzhi was not surprised at all, "So what?"
"Aren't you surprised?"
"I'm not surprised. No matter her strength, she is still my mother."
Seeing him like this, Yan An stopped asking questions and sat on the chair to concentrate on practicing.
"Master, please change back to your old self, otherwise I won't be able to sleep."
Just think about it, who can sleep well in the middle of the night if a strange yet familiar old man is watching over them in the room?
Yan An shook his head, refusing to agree, and had no intention of leaving Lu Jingzhi's room.
"Tomorrow you and I will go to the Monster Forest."
"knew."
Lu Jingzhi lay on the bed, facing the wall, not wanting to look at Yan An who had become an old man.
Seeing him like this, Yan An became even more interested. His body floated up and then he lay on Lu Jingzhi's bed, the two of them lying face to face.
Lu Jingzhi opened his eyes in confusion and saw a kind-looking old man staring at him. He was so scared that he fell off the bed.
"Master, can you let me get some sleep?!" Lu Jingzhi complained impatiently.
"How dare you be mean to me?" Yan An's face darkened and looked quite unfriendly.
Lu Jingzhi shuddered at the words and forced a smile, "As long as you're happy."
After saying that, he continued to lie on the bed, closing his eyes and not looking at Yan An.
"I've taken off my mask."
Hearing this, Lu Jingzhi opened his eyes, and what he saw was still an old man's face.
"Oh..." He sighed softly, frowned, and continued to close his eyes.
Seeing his expression, Yan An couldn't help but laugh out loud, and his laughter was as pleasant as a silver bell.
[Never mind, I won’t tease you anymore.]
Yan An sat back in his chair, took off the human skin mask on his face, and returned to the next room...
The next morning.
The master and disciple walked out of Panping Town and traveled for two hours before arriving at the outskirts of the Monster Forest.
Yan An was wearing a short red skirt, revealing her long, snow-white legs. The bells on her ankles jingled crisply as she floated in the air. "We're going this time to find the last two medicinal herbs. We can't go to the center of the Monster Forest. Do you understand?"
Lu Jingzhi looked at the big white legs and suppressed the throbbing in his heart, "I know...I know, Master."
Yan An nodded, took out a book of exercises from the jade pendant and handed it to him, "And practice this." After she finished speaking, she flashed back to the sea of spirituality.
Lu Jingzhi opened the first page, and the words inside the technique flew in.
(The Thunder Palm, a low-grade Xuan-level technique. When practicing, one must undergo the baptism of thunder and lightning... Only after mastering it can one kill the enemy. Its power is immense!)
"Master, am I... am I going to be struck by lightning?"
"Of course, this way I can not only practice the technique, but also strengthen my body. Why not?"
Lu Jingzhi looked up at the cloudless sky and said, "But there is no thunder or lightning now."
Yan An rolled his eyes at him and said, "Of course, we have to wait for the rain. When the thunderstorm comes, we must go to the peak of the Monster Forest to welcome the baptism of thunder and lightning."
Knowing that I was going to be struck by lightning, my heart was in my throat.
"Master...Master, if I can't bear it then, you have to protect me." He said with a sad face.
"Oh, the most I can do is collect your body. I won't do anything else for you during this time."
“…”
Lu Jingzhi twitched the corner of his mouth and was suddenly speechless.
He composed himself and took a deep breath. "Never mind. Everyone dies, sooner or later. I don't believe you'd be afraid of a little thunder and lightning."
After preparing himself mentally, he walked into the lush forest of monsters.
In his memory, this monster forest covers an area of tens of thousands of hectares, with two large rivers running through the monster forest. There are the most monsters in the river area and the central area.
As he thought about it, he walked deeper into the forest. The deeper he went, the denser the bushes became.
An hour later, Lu Jingzhi took out the dry food and water he brought from home from his storage ring, found a place under a big tree, sat on the grass and started eating.
"This dry food is so dry and tastes so bad. I really want to eat the delicious fish and meat at home!"
He complained, completely unaware that on this very tree, a black-shelled centipede, its mouth dripping with foul-smelling saliva, its eight tiny green eyes staring intently at Lu Jingzhi, who was eating beneath the tree...
