Chapter 017 Master Must Love You to Death
It was already evening when Xiao Jing woke up. Clouds covered the sky, bright red and golden, like a colorful painting.
Xiao Jing retracted his gaze and looked down. Shen Wuyan was sleeping soundly on top of him.
Xiao Jing snorted very lightly, "Pig?"
The golden-red afterglow slanted through the window lattice and fell on Shen Wuyan's profile, giving his face a layer of warm halo. From Xiao Jing's perspective, his face seemed to be flashing with a layer of light.
No one knew what Shen Wuyan dreamed about, but he suddenly smacked his lips. The sound was not loud, but the room was quiet and the distance was close, so Xiao Jing saw and heard it clearly.
"It's a pig indeed."
Xiao Jing didn't know what he was thinking of. He curled his lips into a smile, raised his hand, and pointed it towards the desk. The brush on the desk stood up instantly, and then under Xiao Jing's control, the brush was dipped in ink and flew obediently to his hand.
Xiao Jing looked around carefully, intending to find a good position to add a few strokes to Shen Wuyan.
Xiao Jing's eyes swept towards Shen Wuyan's smooth forehead, and he sighed, "Why does a man have such a round and smooth forehead?"
As he spoke, Xiao Jing dropped the pen in his hand.
After a moment, Xiao Jing curled his lips and smiled, very satisfied with his masterpiece.
Then his eyes slid down to Shen Wuyan's eyebrows.
Shen Wuyan had a very good eyebrow shape, neither thick nor thin, and they flew into his temples. He was handsome yet heroic, and the two were perfectly combined together.
When Shen Wuyan smiles, he looks exceptionally gentle; when Shen Wuyan doesn't smile, his eyebrows make him look exceptionally stern and cold.
Xiao Jing hummed and picked up the pen again.
Then Xiao Jing's gaze fell on Shen Wuyan's closed eyes.
Shen Wuyan's eyelids were a little thin, white with a hint of pink, and if you looked closely you could see the light-colored blood vessels on them. And the eyes under his eyelids were dark and bright as if they were filled with stars when he smiled, and as cold as ice-cold pond water when he wasn't smiling.
Xiao Jing said unconsciously in his heart: "She looks better when she smiles."
Then he was stunned and frowned. Was he crazy? He actually thought Shen Wuyan's shell was beautiful?
Is he crazy? !
Yes, Xiao Jing knew it the moment the inner ghost poison took effect.
As a demon king, if he doesn't even know the poison of the demons, then he is really useless.
That's why he bit Shen Wuyan's neck fiercely and drank his blood before the poison had completely worn off...
The Immortal Lord's blood has a certain inhibitory effect on toxicity. As long as the toxicity is prevented from completely invading, there will be hope.
But he didn't know who had given him the poison and for what purpose.
In fact, Xiao Jing was worried about Shen Wuyan. The Shen Wuyan here refers to the Shen Wuyan before he was replaced, his vicious master.
He remembered clearly that before his rebirth, he was about to go to bed. Before going to bed, he had a habit of torturing his evil master.
It was at that time that his mortal enemy Zhuang Xinghai broke in, and when the two of them had a big fight, he was reborn.
Those present at the time included him, his vicious master who was still holding on to his breath, and Zhuang Xinghai.
If he was reborn, then the evil master who still had a breath left and Zhuang Xinghai might also be reborn.
It’s just that he was reborn into himself, while the other two were obviously not.
Zhuang Xinghai is the son of Zhuang Shaohua. Now Zhuang Shaohua doesn’t even have a wife, so how could he have a son? So no one knows where Zhuang Xinghai is.
There is also the evil master Shen Wuyan, whose shell is occupied by this pig-headed Shen Wuyan, so where is the real Shen Wuyan?
Now he is in the open while the enemy is in the dark. If he relies on himself alone, it would be difficult to find out the truth.
Shen Wuyan's help is needed in this matter. Shen Wuyan is the elder of the Law Enforcement Hall. He is second only to the first person in Lingyun Sect and has great power.
My thoughts returned to Shen Wuyan.
Xiao Jing's gaze fell on his face again. Shen Wuyan's eyelashes were long and thick, and when they were closed, they looked as elegant as the wings of a butterfly perched on a flower.
"Master, I will make you look better..."
Xiao Jing's prank continued, and then his eyes fell on Shen Wuyan's straight nose, and then slid down a little bit, finally landing on Shen Wuyan's slightly open red lips...
How can a man's lips be so red?
And it's so moist, it's even prettier than a woman's lip color.
Unconsciously, Xiao Jing's gaze lingered on Shen Wuyan's lips for a little too long, so that Shen Wuyan woke up.
Shen Wuyan blinked her thick long eyelashes lightly, like a butterfly gently flapping its wings ready to take off, and then she lifted her eyelids, a crack opened between her eyes, and then she unexpectedly met a handsome face and a pen.
Shen Wuyan might have been in a daze due to his sleep. He didn't remember what day it was, nor did he remember that he had traveled through time. He squinted his eyes and looked for a long time without reacting. His bright black eyes, which smiled at him, now seemed to be covered with a layer of mist, hazy and confused.
It was also the first time that Xiao Jing saw Shen Wuyan like this. He was as cute as a little cat, well-behaved and gentle, without any aggressiveness.
It was as if the cold-blooded, dark, ugly and despicable Shen Wuyan was not him anymore.
So is there a docile cat living in Shen Wuyan's shell?
After waiting for a long time, Shen Wuyan came back to his senses and straightened up suddenly. He ignored the brush in Xiao Jing's hand and said happily: "Xiao Jing, you're awake! Are you feeling uncomfortable? Do you want some water? Are you hungry?"
Shen Wuyan asked Xiao Jing several caring questions in a row. He had never been cared for so much by anyone before, and he stared blankly at the ugly face of Shen Wuyan, as if the Shen Wuyan who had quarreled with him before was just a flower in the mirror and the moon in the water, just an illusion.
"What's wrong? Why aren't you talking? What's wrong with you?" Shen Wuyan became more and more anxious.
Xiao Jing came back to his senses, with just the right amount of bewilderment in his eyes, and pretended to be dumb and asked, "What's wrong with me?"
"You... have been poisoned, by the demons' heart ghost." Shen Wuyan felt that the person concerned had the right to know, so he paused and told the truth, but then he hurriedly added comfortingly: "Don't be afraid, Xiaojing. I am here, I will never let anything happen to you, I will definitely protect you. Your fourth uncle's medical skills are unparalleled in the world, and he will be able to develop an antidote in no time. So don't be afraid, don't worry, eat and drink as you should. I will take care of everything."
Xiao Jing snorted proudly in his heart: "How can I be afraid of a mere evil spirit?"
However, Xiao Jing found Shen Wuyan's words interesting. Why should he protect and be nice to a stranger who had taken his place?
Unless... there is some ulterior motive.
Xiao Jing had all sorts of conspiracies in his mind, but he pretended to be surprised and asked deliberately, "How could I be poisoned? Or was it the poison of the demons? Could it be that there are spies from the demons infiltrating our Lingyun Sect? If so, wouldn't the other disciples be in danger?"
Shen Wuyan didn't sleep well last night and woke up early in the morning. Then there was another roller coaster-like thrill and excitement. As a result, he had no time to think about these things. He just fell asleep in front of Xiao Jing's bed.
Hearing what Xiao Jing said, Shen Wuyan suddenly realized, "Oh, right, this is Lingyun Sect, the number one sect in Lingyu Continent. The disciple of the law-enforcing elder was poisoned in the sect!!! I ask you: is it weird? Is it strange? It's really weird."
Xiao Jing sat on the bed, his arms folded across his chest, looking at his master with satisfaction, and encouraged in his heart: "Well said, keep going."
Shen Wuyan, the master who was full of drama in his heart, did not disappoint him. He thought: "Ancestor Xiao was poisoned for unknown reasons. This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to win his favor. In addition to taking good care of him in daily life, he can also use his identity as a law enforcement elder to find the murderer.
If the murderer can be caught, that would be great. If the murderer cannot be caught but clues can be found, that would also be good. The worst case scenario is that nothing can be found, but that at least shows that his master protects him. From now on, Shen Wuyan will be a great master who is determined to protect his disciples. I am not afraid that Ancestor Xiao will not be moved, hahaha..."
Shen Wuyan thought happily that Xiao Jing was moved by him, and then he would complete his mission and go home, where he would have a lot of money and live a life of luxury...a smile appeared on his eyebrows and eyes.
That smile was lively and bright, looking as tempting as candy, sweet and beautiful.
People without light all yearn for light in their hearts. Who would want to live in a dark and damp corner forever? At that moment, Xiao Jing, who lived in darkness, seemed to have suddenly seen a beam of light.
Shen Wuyan coughed lightly, raised his smile, and acted like a master. He nodded maturely and said, "Xiao Jing, you are right. This is what I meant. But you haven't woken up yet, and I was really worried and didn't dare to leave. Now that I see you wake up with my own eyes, I am relieved.
In this case, there is no time to lose. I will immediately go to the head brother to report this matter and request a comprehensive inspection of the entire Lingyun Sect. I must catch the traitor who dared to harm you."
In Xiao Jing's view, Shen Wuyan at this moment was like a child who had secretly worn adult clothes. Although he tried hard to appear mature and steady, his clumsy imitation movements still made him look as cute as a child.
Xiao Jing frowned unconsciously and urged, "Master, go quickly." Although he felt that this matter might not be as simple and easy as Shen Wuyan thought.
Shen Wuyan nodded and said as if promising: "Don't worry, disciple. If anyone dares to harm my disciple, I will avenge him for you when I catch him."
Xiao Jing smiled softly, "Thank you for your kindness, Master."
It was the first time that Shen Wuyan saw Xiao Jing smile so brightly and obediently, without any gloom at all. He looked like a sunny and youthful high school student of seventeen or eighteen years old.
He couldn't help but sigh in his heart: "Right, that's the way it is. Xiao Jing, you are much cuter like this. Why do you always go around biting people like a mad dog? If you could always be like this, then Master would love you to death!"
Xiao Jing's thick eyelashes blinked lightly, quickly and lightly, like a butterfly fluttering its wings, but those thin wings stirred up a huge storm in Xiao Jing's heart...
Hsiao King: Do you love me?
Shen Wuyan patted Xiao Jing's head gently, the action was exactly the same as the one he used to pat his own big dog, "Then you have a good rest, I'll go find the head brother."
Xiao Jing came back to his senses, saw Shen Wuyan's face, and shouted: "Wait, Master, can you help me twist a handkerchief?"
Shen Wuyan twisted a handkerchief and gave it to Xiao Jing. Xiao Jing waved at Shen Wuyan, "Master, come here."
Shen Wuyan didn't know what was going on, but he still went over obediently.
Xiao Jing suddenly grabbed his chin and lifted it slightly. That gesture looked like a seductive move.
Shen Wuyan was startled and shrank back slightly. Xiao Jing increased the strength of his hand, pinching him a little painfully. Then he heard Xiao Jing say, "Don't move, Master. You drooled when you were sleeping just now. Let me wipe it for you."
At the same time, Xiao Jing looked at the turtle on Shen Wuyan's forehead, the two big eyebrows that were as ugly as flesh worms, the big dark circles around his eyes, and the black beard on his face, and sighed in his heart: What a pity, only I can see this masterpiece alone.
However, in order to let Shen Wuyan help him find out who poisoned him, he had no choice but to erase this masterpiece to avoid upsetting Shen Wuyan.
"I, I wouldn't normally do that." Shen Wuyan explained extremely awkwardly, not daring to look Xiao Jing in the eye.
He actually believed it, how naive he is.
He didn't even think about it. If he was drooling, why did he wipe his forehead, eyebrows, eyes and face?
Xiao Jing wrapped the ink-stained handkerchief in his hand to block it, still smiling and saying, "It's okay, Master, I'll clean it for you."
No one laughed at him, no one despised him, and no one mocked him. It was like he had become a different person.
But Shen Wuyan was feeling embarrassed. After all, he was the master now. The master drooled in his sleep and the drool fell on his disciple's quilt. This was somewhat... socially embarrassing.
So he doesn't have the time or the brain capacity to think about these differences.
Shen Wuyan went to find Zhuang Shaohua, and was greeted by Zhuang Shaohua's eldest disciple, who was also the chief disciple of the entire Lingyun Sect: Jiang Yunzhi.
The book describes Jiang Yunzhi as a young and outstanding man, gentle as jade, and a humble gentleman.
Jiang Yunzhi was wearing the white school uniform of Lingyun Sect. He had a tall and slender figure and a gentle smile on his face. When he met Shen Wuyan, he gave him a very standard greeting, "Hello, Immortal Wuyan."
Shen Wuyan felt that Jiang Yunzhi deserved the description of being as gentle as jade and a modest gentleman. He looked like a warm and refreshing person.
"Yun Zhi, where is your master? I have something important to discuss with him."
"Master is in the study. I will take the Immortal Master there. Please come this way." Jiang Yunzhi stretched out his hand and made a gesture of invitation. His posture and etiquette were impeccable, worthy of being the sect's first disciple.
Seeing Shen Wuyan, Zhuang Shaohua put down the brush in his hand and stood up to greet him, "Junior brother, why are you here?"
After Shen Wuyan bowed, he went straight to the point, "Master, I have something important to report to you."
Zhuang Shaohua asked Shen Wuyan to sit down. Jiang Yunzhi brewed some new tea and placed it in front of Shen Wuyan. Shen Wuyan smiled and thanked Jiang Yunzhi, then turned to Zhuang Shaohua and told him what happened in the morning.
After saying that, Shen Wuyan took a big sip of tea, and then said: "Brother, I am not selfish to become your disciple. Think about it carefully, our Lingyun Sect is the largest sect in the world of immortal cultivation, and the spies of the demon clan are so rampant that they dare to poison directly. Today, my disciple was poisoned, so who will be the one to be poisoned tomorrow? Yun Zhi?"
Shen Wuyan pointed at Jiang Yunzhi who had been standing quietly behind Zhuang Shaohua. Zhuang Shaohua treated his disciple like his own son.
Hearing this, he immediately raised his eyebrows and said angrily: "How dare he, the demon clan villain!"
"Brother, this matter may seem small, but if I don't investigate it thoroughly, I will always feel uneasy. If there are spies from the demon clan infiltrating our Lingyun Sect to cause chaos, then is our world of cultivation still safe?"
Zhuang Shaohua frowned upon hearing this and said in a deep voice: "Junior brother, that's right. But we can't use the excuse of searching for the demon clan's spies... and we have to ask your fourth senior sister to come over."
