"Fusheng is really sensible. Auntie will be blessed in the future."
Looking at her silly son, the aunt's eyes were very relieved, "If I can raise him safely, I will die with my eyes closed. I don't want to enjoy the good life, as long as I can live in peace and health. By the way, your sister is not in good health, so don't come out so often, go into the house and take care of her. I cook very quickly, and I will bring the chicken to you when it's cooked, so just wait."
"Thank you, Auntie." Xiao Zi was about to turn around, but seemed to sense something and immediately went into the house and closed the door.
"Master, you are here." Turning around, he saw the familiar figure checking Zi Xi's injuries by the bed.
"Well, everything is going well for you." This strange place has too many differences from the outside world. In addition, Xiao Zi is a child and brings a wounded person with him, so Ling'er is still very worried.
"Master, don't worry. Everything is fine with us. We haven't aroused any suspicion from the local people. What's more, the landlady here likes me very much." He looked very smug, and it seemed as if the words 'Praise me, praise me' were clearly written on his face.
"Well, our Xiao Zi is the best." Looking at Xiao Zi like this, Ling'er smiled helplessly and shook her head. What a child who has not grown up.
But Zixi really suffered a lot, her whole body was covered with wounds, and there was hardly a piece of healthy flesh. Those damn guys, if they had known earlier, they shouldn't have let that bastard die so easily.
"Master, don't be too sad. Zixi's injuries are all superficial, with no damage to her internal organs, so her life is not in danger. It just looks a little painful."
In fact, when Xiao Zi saw Zi Xi's injuries, he felt the same as Ling'er, but he didn't want to make his master too sad, so he could only say this.
"By the way, Master, why are you here? Have you finished what you wanted to do?"
"I have found the location of that woman and have a plan. Now everything is ready, except for the east wind."
As she spoke, she took out some precious pills from the space and fed them to Zixi. If there were outsiders present, they would be shocked by Ling'er's actions, because any one of those pills was worth a fortune, but she fed them to a maid without blinking an eye.
"These pills will help her recover from her injuries, and they can also repair the hidden injuries she suffered from practicing martial arts. After she wakes up this time, not only will her body be a hundred times stronger than before, but even her spiritual sea will become much wider. Her future cultivation speed will be faster than that of ordinary people."
"Master, you are so kind to Zixi. I am a little envious."
"You are all my partners. No matter who you are or what the situation is, I will never abandon you. What are you envious of? Have I abused you?"
"Oh, master, I was just joking, don't take it seriously. My master is naturally the best master in the world, no doubt about it." Flattery never wears a thread, no matter who you are talking to, it's always right to say nice things.
Knowing that Xiao Zi is a child at heart, how could Ling'er really care about him
In the training pool of Lingxi Palace, the Palace Master was sweating profusely and concentrating with his eyes closed. However, because he was worried, he could not concentrate on his training and almost went astray.
"Puff!" A surge of blood and energy surged, and he finally couldn't hold it in anymore. After spitting out a mouthful of blood, he slowly opened his eyes.
Jianxin, who was standing by, immediately came up with a towel and asked, "Palace Master, are you okay?"
The Palace Master waved his hands weakly, then took the towel and wiped his forehead, "It's okay, I just got distracted during practice."
"Palace Master, you are worried about the Young Palace Master's affairs." The Palace Master was so absent-minded, it seemed that he had already met the Young Palace Master.
"That girl really gave me a difficult problem this time."
"Even the Palace Master finds it difficult, so I really can't guess the answer." Although Jianxin has a low emotional intelligence and always gives people a cold impression, he understands the Palace Master's thoughts very well. Maybe this is the natural fate of master and servant.
"Don't say you can't guess it. Even I didn't expect to encounter such a problem. Did you know that the girl is going to marry someone from the outside world?"
The hand massaging the palace master suddenly stiffened, as if it was startled. No one would have thought of such a thing. This young palace master is really young and has bold ideas.
"Palace Master, you won't agree to it, right?" That's why I'm so worried.
Thinking of this, the Palace Master stretched out his hand and pinched his eyebrows, feeling a bit of a headache.
"Even if I can convince the elders, will the temple...will the temple agree?" All the rules on this island come from the temple. If the temple does not allow it, even if the palace master breaks the rules, he will be punished. Otherwise, the palace master would not have been trapped on the island for so many years, unable to leave.
"That girl said she only had two choices, either get married or die. What do you think I should do? After all, I watched her grow up. Can you really let her die? Sigh." It would have been better if this girl hadn't gone out this time, but unfortunately there is no if.
"Hey, Palace Master, I remember there seems to be a very special rule on the island, that is, anyone who can find the king ring can make three requests to the temple, no matter what they are, the temple will agree. But the king ring has been lost for a hundred years, and it is extremely difficult to find it."
"Isn't this nonsense? If the King's Ring was so easy to find, would I still be trapped on this island?"
"But it seems that this is the only way to make the temple give in. Speaking of the king's ring, the subordinates suddenly remembered that two days ago, the Black Elder of the Ru Temple received a prophecy, which showed that the king's ring appeared in the world. The Black Elder also privately sent his confidants to look for the whereabouts of the king's ring." This was the information he got from an informant.
Jianxin's words successfully aroused the interest of the palace master. The face that was originally full of worry suddenly showed surprise, and the hand that was kneading the center of the eyebrows had stopped at some point, and it seemed that she was listening to Jianxin's words very seriously.
The king's ring appeared in the world? I don't know if this news is true.
In order to leave this hellhole, he had been secretly looking for the King's Ring for many years, but there was no news. Even if there was, it was just a rumor. So gradually, he almost gave up on the matter of looking for the King's Ring. But he didn't expect to hear about the King's Ring again at this time. I don't know if it was a false alarm or a ray of hope.
"Has anything unusual happened on the island recently?"
"Abnormal things, I heard from the guards guarding the barrier that the barrier suddenly became turbulent two days ago, and ripples appeared on the water. They thought someone had broken out to check, but they didn't find anything unusual. Oh, that was the day when the young palace master came back."
"That prophecy, did it also start from that day?"
"Yes, it was that day. The Palace Master means that all these things are related?" He had never thought about this.
"There must be something wrong if it's unusual. Since it all happened on the same day, you should go and check it out." At least it's a clue. It's better than staying here and worrying about it.
"As you command."
"You go ahead."
After Jian Xin left, the Palace Master calmed down and closed his eyes again...
"How is it? Have you found any clues?" The old man in black robe stood with his back to the distance and looked into the distance with empty eyes.
"To reply to the elder, still... still nothing." Just as the voice fell, he felt a sharp pain in his knees and fell to his knees. Enduring the severe pain, he clasped his fists and begged for mercy.
"Elder, please calm down. It's all my fault for being incompetent. I am willing to accept the punishment." As he said that, he took out a short blade and stabbed it towards his chest. However, when it was 0.1 centimeter away from his chest, he was knocked to the ground by an external force with a crisp sound.
"Forget it this time. Since you are still loyal, I will spare your life. I will give you another three days. If you still get nothing, you should know what the outcome will be. This elder never needs trash around him!" The voice was hoarse and did not sound very pleasant. It was easy to associate it with a poisonous snake.
"I understand. Thank you for your grace, Elder. I will not let you down."
Ling'er spent a peaceful day in the homestay where Xiao Zi was staying. Under the effect of her elixir, Zi Xi's condition also improved a lot.
"Miss, how can you serve me? You are embarrassing me. My injury has healed a lot and I can get out of bed, really." Zi Xi looked at Ling'er who served her tea and water, and felt touched and guilty. She was the young lady's maid, but not only did she fail to serve the young lady well, but she also let the young lady take care of herself. This... This is really disrespectful.
Zi Xi struggled to get up, but Ling Er quickly held her down, "You girl, your wounds haven't healed yet, don't move. The wounds you bandaged will open again, and I'll have to bandage them again. Do you want to tire me to death?"
"No, Miss. Zi Xi doesn't dare. It's just, just..." Hearing Ling'er say this, Zi Xi didn't know how to respond for a moment.
Seeing the panicked and helpless look on the girl's face, Ling'er smiled and shook her head and said, "Okay, I'm just kidding you. Be good and don't move. You are a patient and a wounded person now, so you should be obedient. Don't you want to get better quickly and help me save your master? You know my temper, I don't care about trivial matters. Besides, when we are away from home, there is no need to pay attention to the master-servant relationship. You were injured because of me, so I should take care of you. Be obedient and lie down."
"Miss... "
"Oh my, girl, why are you crying? Is your wound broken and it hurts? Let me take a look." Looking at Zi Xi with tears in her eyes, Ling Er was a little panicked. This girl was always so strong and cheerful on weekdays. How much pain must it be for her to cry
"Miss, no, don't... don't be anxious... I'm not hurt, I'm just... I was so touched that I couldn't help it... From childhood to adulthood, in my memory, no one has ever been so nice to me."
"Silly girl, there is no need to cry about this. Okay, okay, stop crying. You have risked your life for me, so it is my duty to be nice to you. In my eyes, there is no distinction between high and low people. As long as you are devoted to each other, we are all friends. Xiao Zi and the others are friends, and so are you. So you must remember, no matter what the circumstances, you must protect yourself. No matter who of you gets into trouble, I will be sad." He wiped Zi Xi's tears and hugged her gently.
"Silly girl, don't cry. Take good care of your injuries and get better soon. Don't let me, your young lady, worry about you." He patted Zi Xi's back gently and said comfortingly.
Zi Xi sobbed twice and nodded heavily, "Miss, don't worry, Zi Xi will listen to you and get better soon. By the way, Miss, have you found the whereabouts of His Majesty?"
"Well, there is already some clue. Now I'll wait for you to recover while I wait for the right time." After the woman merged the spirit and soul of Emperor Shi Tian, she would wait for the right opportunity to attack. As long as Emperor Shi Tian wakes up, it should be much easier to leave this hellhole.
However, Ling'er had never expected that Emperor Shitian, who had achieved unity of spirit and soul, would lose his memory for some unknown reason.
"Tiantian, don't you recognize me? I'm Ling'er." Taking advantage of the guard's shift change, Ling'er sneaked into the room where Di Shitian was. Looking at this familiar yet somewhat strange face in front of her, Ling'er was a little at a loss.
Emperor Shi Tian's eyes were cold and empty. He glanced at the woman in front of him indifferently, then turned around to continue practicing, completely ignoring Ling'er.
This state of Emperor Shi Tian made Ling Er feel really overwhelmed. What should she do? She thought they could leave once Emperor Shi Tian woke up, but the difficulty of saving people did not decrease as Emperor Shi Tian woke up, but increased instead.
Ling'er couldn't see through Emperor Shitian's cultivation. He didn't know Ling'er now, and he wouldn't be willing to leave with her. This was really shooting himself in the foot.
Ling Er still did not give up, and continued to move in front of Emperor Shi Tian, trying to awaken his memory of her. But Emperor Shi Tian seemed to be in a trance, motionless, and never opened his eyes.
"Shushu, tell me what's going on? Why is this happening? Isn't it said that everything will be fine once the mind and soul are united? Why is Tiantian still losing his memory?"
"Um, this... I'm not sure about this question. It shouldn't be like this. Could it be that the woman did something? Or was he affected by something, causing his soul to be damaged. But one thing I can be sure of is that this amnesia is temporary."
"It's only temporary, but how long will it take? When will he recover?" I was so anxious.
"I don't know about this either. Maybe tomorrow, maybe the day after tomorrow, maybe next month... It depends on the opportunity..."
"... ... Shushu, don't you think you've been talking too much nonsense lately? Why don't we make use of you and use you to cook and fill our stomachs."
"You Zou Kai, you just know how to scare me every day. I don't love you anymore and I won't talk to you anymore." The book closed and returned to the space, looking a little angry.
Suddenly, there was a sound of footsteps outside. "Then I'll leave first. By the way, don't tell anyone that I've been here." Although Di Shitian had lost his memory and ignored her completely, she still found it difficult to treat this man as a stranger because of habit. She said a few words, but she didn't know if he would listen or not. The footsteps were approaching, so she quickly jumped out of the window.
With a creak, the door opened and Mo Lingling came in carrying a lunch box. Seeing the man meditating, she smiled, put the lunch box on the table, and turned back to close the door.
Ling'er did not go far, but hid in the dark and observed everything that happened in the house.
How could she leave without worrying about her man being coveted by a shameless woman, who now has lost his memory? A man and a woman are alone in the same room, and she is really worried that this woman will shamelessly touch her every day.
She had thought it through. If this woman really wanted to force herself on him, she would risk it. Even if it meant risking being discovered, she had to take Di Shitian away by force. She couldn't let wild boars outside eat her own cabbages.
"Brother Tian, you must be hungry. I made some side dishes, but I don't know if they'll suit your taste." As he spoke, he opened the food box, took out the dishes one by one and placed them on the table, then set the table and warmed up a pot of wine.
Ling'er looked at the flattering smile on the woman's face from the dark, and she felt like vomiting. She didn't even pay attention to her, but she still shamelessly stuck to him. She remembered that Di Shitian was misogynistic, but she didn't know if he was different now that he had lost his memory.
Emperor Shi Tian remained motionless, as if he had not heard anything at all, and always maintained his original posture.
Mo Lingling was not angry. She walked to the window and closed it, then picked up a cloak and put it on Di Shitian.
The moment the clothes were put on, Di Shitian opened his eyes.
