Chapter 400 - Master and disciple leaving the mountain
Ren Yingying's way of eating it was enough to show just how delicious Ling Xiao's roasted rabbit meat was. After finishing the last bit, Ren Yingying couldn't help but suck the oil off her fingers, and her face was filled with an expression that said she still wanted to eat it.
Seeing that, Ling Xiao laughed: "Miss Ying Ying, there is a small piece of land here, do you want to eat it?"
After Ren Yingying heard this, she nodded his head unrestrainedly, "I want to eat it."
After all the rabbit meat had been wiped clean, Ling Xiao started to extinguish the fire, so as to not cause unnecessary trouble. On the other hand, Ren Yingying laid on the grass, enjoying the sunlight with a face full of comfort.
"Big brother Ling Xiao, this rabbit meat is really too delicious, it's even more delicious than any delicacy I've tasted before. How come I didn't know that the rabbit meat here were so delicious?" Ren Yingying said as she rubbed her stomach.
Hearing that, Ling Xiao laughed out loud: "That's not because the rabbit meat here are delicious. If you want to eat such delicious rabbit meat, as long as you follow me, you can eat anywhere."
Hearing this, Ren Yingying rolled over and got up, opening hhereyes wide as she looked at Ling Xiao, his face full of anticipation: "Big Brother Ling Xiao, where did you learn all these skills? I also want to learn them."
Ling Xiao smiled mysteriously and said: "This is a special secret recipe, I won't pass it to anyone."
Ren Yingying sighed in disappointment, and said: "That's right, such a delicious thing, how can you teach him?"
Seeing that, Ling Xiao caressed Ren Yingying's head and laughed: "However, I can teach you, but you have to promise that I will not tell others."
Hearing that, Ren Yingying's interest was piqued, she immediately nodded and said: "Of course, other than familiar people, I will not let anyone else know."
"Alright, since it's still early, I'll go and catch another hare and teach you how to roast it." Ling Xiao laughed.
Just as Ling Xiao was playing around in the deep mountains with Ren Yingying, Hu Chong was sitting in front of the Old Man Green Bamboo with a sad face.
Seeing his own disciple's sad look, Old Man Green Bamboo was also helpless. He shook his head and sighed: "Since the situation has developed to this point, there is nothing I can do. It can only be said that there is a heaven's will in the world, and you, as a lady, do not have this kind of fate."
It turned out that after being with the green bamboo nun for such a long time, Hu Chong had already developed feelings for her. He originally wanted to slowly find an opportunity to get closer to her, but never would he have thought that he would be snatched away by Ling Xiao so easily.
Hu Chong was extremely vexed. Just as he thought of all the things that Ling Xiao had done to him in the past that he had not completely changed his mind, such a thing had actually happened again.
Hu Chong was filled with grievances, and could only come to his Master to complain.
Although the Old Man Green Bamboo still had some authority in front of the Green Bamboo Daughter, he had no right to meddle in such matters. Thus, he could only try to comfort his disciple.
"Sigh, it's my fault. Without me taking the initiative, it's already too late." Hu Chong let out another heavy sigh.
Although he said that, it made Hu Chong very clear in his heart that compared to Ling Xiao, he was not lacking at all. Even if he took the initiative to attack, sooner or later, Ling Xiao would catch up to him.
Ren Yingying was, after all, the daughter of the Sun Moon Divine Hall's Sect Leader.
Facing his own precious disciple, Old Man Green Bamboo had already said everything that he needed to say. Old Man Green Bamboo could be said to have watched Ren Yingying grow up, so he naturally knew Ren Yingying's personality very well.
My dear disciple, things have already come to this, let's not think too much about it anymore and focus on handling the matters in front of you. Tomorrow, come out of the mountain with me and head to Wang Family. The Old Man Green Bamboo said, wanting Hu Chong to divert his attention.
Hearing this, Hu Chong was shocked, "Master, you haven't showed your face for a long time, how about you go straight to Wang Family as soon as you leave the mountain, is that alright?"
As expected, Hu Chong's attention was diverted by Old Man Green Bamboo's words, because this was something he did not expect.
Old Man Green Bamboo laughed bitterly for a while and said: "This is something that we have agreed upon, I have to do it, but to be honest, after living in seclusion for so long, the conflict in Luoyang City has become even more intense, and before long, we can either choose to leave, or we have to make a choice. Since that's the case, we might as well make a decision as soon as possible."
Hu Chong knew that it must be Ling Xiao's idea, but after thinking about the situation inside the Luoyang City, he asked in puzzlement: "Master, the Wang Family can only be considered as a first class Wang Family and not a top tier Wang Family, why should we choose the Wang Family? Or rather, why should Ling Xiao choose the Wang Family?"
Old Man Green Bamboo looked at Linghu Chong, shook his head and said, "Master is also not sure, but what is certain is that Ling Xiao has already planned it all out, we just need to listen."
"Then you... Are we really going to use the power up there? " Hu Chong curiously asked, but did not dare to directly explain.
When Old Man Green Bamboo heard this, he muttered to himself for a moment before saying: "In the end, Master is also one of the Four Protectors of Sun Moon Divine Hall and possesses quite a bit of power. If necessary, I will naturally use it."
This was the first time Hu Chong had heard his Master reveal his hidden identity so openly, and he actually didn't know what to do for a moment.
Old Man Green Bamboo guessed what was on Hu Chong's mind, and said: "Master understands your hidden difficulties, and indeed, you are a person who holds justice in your heart. Master does not expect you to trust me, but please do not hate Master, and that is enough."
Hearing this, Hu Chong waved his hands and said, "Master, how could I hate Master? If it wasn't for you, I would still be wandering outside with no one to rely on."
"Alright, since you'll have to follow Ling Xiao in the future, I believe he'll take care of you. Go, prepare your things." The Old Man Green Bamboo didn't seem to be willing to continue speaking. He waved his hand to signal Hu Chong to leave.
Hearing that, Hu Chong wanted to say something, but gave up in the end. After bowing to the Old Man Green Bamboo, he left.
Old Man Green Bamboo's words meant that he wanted to make Linghu Chong leave him and look for Ling Xiao.
In fact, Hu Chong had long wished to go to Jianghu to explore once he had fully recovered. This could be considered as fulfilling his wish, as the Old Man Green Bamboo understood Hu Chong very well.
On the second day, Old Man Green Bamboo brought Hu Chong, one man and one horse, and set off for Wang Family.
As for the Luoyang City, it was still bustling with activity, but no one had expected that the current situation in the Luoyang City would be affected by an outsider.
