In fact, when Jiang Beiran came back, he already thought that Yu Manwen would come to him again, so in order not to cause more troublesome follow-up, Jiang Beiran decided to "retire and escape" directly, and let the guardian sit for a month, waiting for her to be curious about him The heart slowly cools down, and the incident will naturally subside.
But what Jiang Beiran never expected was that the wise hall master who used to cover up for him, this time...
Seeing Zhang Heqing sneaking glances at Yu Manwen's "shy" expression from time to time, Jiang Beiran despaired.
'A flower of Guixinzong... so terrifying! '
After finishing the mental activities, Jiang Beiran stepped forward and cupped his hands: "Disciple Jiang Beiran pays homage to the Dharma protector."
Yu Manwen nodded slightly, and said, "Bei Ran, you have been hiding in Lan Xinxuan since you came back, are you hiding from me?"
Jiang Beiran was about to answer when he saw three options appear in front of him.
[Option 1: "How dare a disciple." Completion reward: Blood Refining Slash (Xuan-level low-grade)]
[Option 2: "Guardian Yu was too worried. This disciple just suddenly had an inspiration and wanted to further improve his chess skills, so he was in a hurry to retreat." Completion reward: Three tops and four blades (Huang-level middle-grade)]
[Option 3: "Yes." Completion reward: random basic skill point +1]
Jiang Beiran was taken aback when he saw these three options, but he immediately chose three and replied, "Yes."
[Optional task completed, reward: painting +1]
Zhang Heqing was stunned after hearing this, and quickly shouted: "Jiang Beiran! What are you talking about! Is it itchy?" After speaking, she turned her head and smiled at Manwen, "Guardian Yu, blame me for not being strict in discipline. Only then did he disrespect his elders, and I will definitely punish him in the future."
"No need." Yu Manwen raised his left hand and waved towards Zhang Heqing, and then said, "I wonder if Section Master Zhang can let me chat with him alone?"
"This... of course." After Zhang Heqing finished speaking, he stood up and walked towards the door, but passed by Jiang Beiran's side and said in secret: "Don't be angry with the law enforcement, or the rules will serve you."
Jiang Beiran immediately nodded to express his understanding.
With the characteristic "squeak" sound of the wooden door, Zhang Heqing closed the door and left the hall.
"Beiran, I really didn't misread you." Yu Manwen stood up slowly and walked towards Jiang Beiran, "Zijin and the others told me what happened along the way, so that the five children can live together You've done a good job growing so much without suffering a big loss."
"Thank you for your compliment."
"But since you rejected me so forcefully just now... it means that you don't want to get involved with them anymore, right? Or, are you afraid that I will force you to practice cultivation?"
"I… "
Just as Jiang Beiran was about to speak, Yu Manwen stretched out his hand to block him and said, "Needless to say, I understand that you are mature far beyond your age, you know what you should do and what you should not do, and you are very firm Walking on the path of my own choice, I appreciate this tenacious will.”
As he spoke, Yu Manwen patted Jiang Beiran's shoulder lightly, "The value of a person does not necessarily have to be reflected in his cultivation. Before, I was a narrow-minded Dharma protector, and I was a little too hasty. I always feel that you, a good seed, should not be wasted. , but now I understand that you have your own ideals and noble sentiments in life, so I will not impose my ideas on you in the future, don't worry."
'…'
Jiang Beiran was dumbfounded by Protector Yu's long speech.
'Ideal in life? Noble sentiment? What did those girls say about me...'
However, no matter what the process was, Jiang Beiran still liked the result, so he cupped his hands and said, "Thank you for your understanding, the disciples must remember these praises in their hearts."
"Well, that's all I want to say. In addition, you have done me a favor this time. I owe you a favor. If there is any need in the future, just ask. I can still say something in Guixinzong." In a word."
"Thank you, Guardian Yu!"
"Well, come on, I'll go first." Yu Manwen turned and opened the wooden door after speaking, and walked outside.
'It really ended... kind of suddenly. '
But it's a good thing for Jiang Beiran that Guardian Yu is so reasonable, at least he doesn't have to worry about what she thinks will cause him to "trouble".
Outside the door, after Yu Manwen went out, he nodded to Zhang Heqing who was waiting there and said, "Thank you for bothering Section Master Zhang today."
"What's the matter, Guardian Yu is too polite, you and Beiran... are you done talking?"
"En." Yu Manwen nodded: "He is a good student. It seems that Lanxintang is really good at teaching, and it is worth learning from Shuijingtang."
Zhang Heqing smiled modestly after hearing this: "Guardian Yu is absurd."
"However, there are still some things in the hall today that I need to go back to deal with, so I will leave first, and I will come to Hall Master Zhang next time to ask you for advice."
At this time, Leaving Soman came over with a tray with teacups in his hand. Seeing that Yu Manwen seemed to be leaving, he didn't know what to do for a while.
When Zhang Heqing saw it, he immediately took the teacup on the tray and handed it to Yu Manwen, saying, "Guardian Yu, take a sip of tea before leaving. It's just brewed and it's fragrant."
"Okay." With a promise, Yu Manwen took a sip from the teacup, and commented: "It is indeed fragrant, good tea."
"As long as Guardian Yu likes it, I still have quite a few of these emerald snails. You can bring some back and give Hall Master Xu a taste."
"No, thank you, Section Master Zhang, for your kindness. I'll take my leave first." After speaking, Yu Manwen put the teacup back on the tray and walked outside.
"Then I'll see you off...!"
Looking at Zhang Heqing's figure chasing after him, Jiang Beiran shook his head and sighed, the handsome image of the former hall master was completely shattered in his heart.
"Lick... oh no, love makes people humble!"
After about a stick of incense passed, Zhang Heqing finally came back, with a slightly joyful expression on his face.
Seeing Jiang Beiran who was still waiting at the entrance of the hall, Zhang Heqing coughed lightly and said, "Beiran, you did a good job with this iron seal this time, you have earned face for Lan Xintang, I will credit you. "
"Thank you Hall Master."
"The other thing is that Protector Yu seems to have a good impression of you. If you have the opportunity, you should get acquainted with her more... Hey? Why are you looking at me like this? I mean this kind of person who can get along well with other churches. How much should we cherish the relationship, maybe we can help each other in the future?"
Hearing the words of the hall master himself who probably didn't believe it, Jiang Beiran bowed his head and cupped his hands and said, "The disciple takes orders."
"Well... then you can go back and continue playing chess."
"Yes."
Jiang Beiran responded and just turned around to go back to Lan Xinxuan, when he heard Zhang Heqing suddenly calling him back: "Beiran, if you have a chance, please invite Dharma Protector Yu to sit in the hall, this is also for the future development of our hall consider."
'I believe in your ghost! ! '
Resisting the urge to complain, Jiang Beiran nodded again, but what he thought in his heart was naturally to agree, and it depends on his mood whether to do it or not.
