Chapter 53: Temptation
As soon as Su Mu passed by the group of arguing disciples, Cen Siwen was pushed by a group of people. He lost his balance and fell backward. Su Mu picked him up and asked: "Brother, are you okay?"
Cen Siwen was stunned for a moment, stood up quickly, bowed to Su Mu, and said, "It's okay, thank you."
Su Mu smiled politely back at him, and then strode away. But on the way, Su Mu thought to himself: It's strange, just after she helped Cen Siwen, she felt that his breath was different. But she couldn't think of it.
Whatever happened, Su Mu simply ignored it.
I don’t know if a trip to the top of Zhonghuang Mountain opened up the Ren and Du lines. Su Mu felt that his swordsmanship had made rapid progress. He practiced double swords with Ling Huayin every night, and he became more and more comfortable. That evening Ling Hua
Yin went somewhere unknown, and Su Mu had no one to practice his sword with, so he went out to walk around again. Unexpectedly, Yin Tao followed him secretly. Although it had been some time since he had been in Xianze Palace, Yin Tao had not left Qingdao yet.
Luan Palace, maybe he got bored and wanted to come out to see the world. When he came out for the first time, he was very curious about everything, and after a while, Yin Tao ran away on his own.
Su Mu had no choice but to search nearby along the road, thinking: I don't know where the Yin Tao went. The Xianze Palace is so big, it would be bad if some bastard saw it and caught it because it was cute.
Suddenly, he heard a cat meowing. Following the sound, Su Mu saw the black cat that Shang Yue always held in the corner, staring at him with round eyes. Su Mu thought it was Shang Yue who messed with the cat again.
After losing it, he wanted to catch it back. However, he didn't expect that the black cat was very smart. Su Mu didn't catch it, but let it scratch the back of his hand and ran away without a trace.
Su Mu felt a burning pain on the back of his hand. When he raised his hand and looked up, he saw that the shallow scratches were as eye-catching as if they had been burned by fire. Su Mu secretly felt strange, but it was more important to find Yin Tao right now.
So he put the cat thing aside for the time being. After walking a few steps, Su Mu felt dizzy, the world was spinning, and he suddenly fell to the ground with a "thud". A pair of white boots suddenly appeared in front of him, and a man walked slowly towards
Su Mu stood in front of him and felt that the hem of his clothes was very familiar. Su Mu opened his eyes, trying to see the person's face clearly, but he could only vaguely see a person holding the black cat, standing in front of him for a while before he walked away.
Go. Not long after, Sumu's vision went dark.
When Su Mu woke up suddenly, Ling Huayin was sitting on the bedside, guarding him. He quickly sat up and called "Master".
"Xiaomu, you're awake, are you feeling uncomfortable somewhere?" Ling Huayin looked concerned.
Su Mu shook his head and asked, "Master, why am I back? I'm not..." He remembered that he fainted after being scratched by the black cat, and seemed to vaguely see a person.
"When Elo and I saw you outside, you had already fainted, and Yin Tao was watching over you."
Su Mu then remembered that he was going to find Yin Tao. After hearing what Ling Huayin said, he felt relieved and said, "It's good to find Yin Tao. I'm still worried about something happening to it!"
"Show me your hand, how did you do it?" Ling Huayin said suddenly.
Su Mu quickly and obediently stretched out the hand that was scratched by the cat, and said, "I accidentally got scratched by Shang Yue's cat tonight. For some reason, the cat scratched me just like that, and I fainted.
"
"Who is Shang Yue?"
"Oh, it's the same as me. The newly promoted senior disciple usually hugs his black cat every day."
Ling Huayin thought for a moment and said to herself: "Could it be the one I met last time..."
"master?"
"Bring him next time and let me see him."
Su Mu said "Oh" and felt that Ling Huayin was a little abnormal today. She usually loved peace and quiet, so why did she suddenly think of meeting a disciple who was beyond her reach?
Ling Huayin took a closer look at Su Mu's wounds and asked, "Did you see any other suspicious people tonight?"
"Suspicious person... Before I fell into coma, I saw a person coming, but I couldn't see clearly, but he was wearing the clothes of a senior disciple. I didn't know anything after that." Su Mu saw Ling Huayin staring at him.
He was fascinated by the wound and asked: "Master, why did the black cat scratch me and make me faint? Could it be that this black cat has special powers?"
Ling Huayin stared at Su Mu for a while, "I cast a spell on that black cat with my divine blood. Once it encounters any demon, the spell will disappear and I will know it immediately."
Su Mu was startled and blurted out quickly: "Master, I..."
Ling Huayin smiled and said, "Don't be nervous. I know you are not. I am worried that you will be taken advantage of." After saying that, Ling Huayin looked sad.
"Master, are there other demons sneaking into Xianze Palace? Otherwise, why are you so worried?" Su Mu guessed the key immediately.
"Maybe, I'm just guessing, and I can't make a conclusion yet. Just stay here and don't go anywhere. I'll go out." Ling Huayin left the room after saying that.
After Ling Huayin left, Yin Tao immediately came in to visit Su Mu. She seemed to have blamed Su Mu's fainting on her for playing and running around, so she felt particularly guilty. Seeing Yin Tao's self-blaming look, Su Mu comforted her.
After a while, Yin Tao became happy.
Su Mu lay on the bed bored for a while, thinking carefully about what happened tonight, frowning and saying to himself: "Who is that person?"
After saying that, he was puzzled and sat up cross-legged, "Shang Yue's cat is never touched by others. Who else can hold it besides Shang Yue? But when Shang Yue saw me fainting, why didn't he
You won’t just die without rescuing him...it’s strange..."
Yin Tao saw Su Mu's expression of deep thought and made a "chirp" sound next to her.
Su Mu's eyes lit up, and she turned to ask Yin Tao: "Yin Tao, did you see anyone passing by me tonight?"
Yin Tao gesticulated hurriedly in the air for a long time, but Sumu didn't even understand what it wanted to express.
"Um, how about you write it down with a pen."
Yin Tao nodded, and Su Mu quickly went to find a pen and paper, spread them out on the table, and asked Yin Tao to write on them.
Yin Tao drew a crooked picture of a person on the paper. The person seemed to be holding a four-legged animal in his hands.
Su Mu was dumbfounded when he saw it, and asked with a dark look on his face: "Yintao, is this a cat...?"
Yin Tao kept nodding her head.
"Um...it turns out you can't write, but what you drew...is quite unique." Su Mu couldn't bear to hit it.
When Yin Tao heard Su Mu's praise, her wings flapped even more happily.
"If you saw that person again, would you still recognize him?" Su Mu asked.
Yin Tao nodded repeatedly.
Su Mu was overjoyed and thought it was easy to handle now, so he said: "Okay, I will go to morning class tomorrow and I will take you with me. Don't come out secretly."
Yin Tao obediently agreed.
On the second day, Su Mu really took Yin Tao to morning class. Before entering the Tai Chi Hall, he saw Shang Yue holding his cat and waving hello to him from a distance. Su Mu quietly tilted his head and asked:
"Yintao, was he the person you saw last night?"
Yin Tao quietly appeared on Su Mu's shoulder and shook her head in denial.
The disciples were almost arriving one after another. Su Mu pretended to be nonchalant and marked the seats of the disciples on the paper, then quietly put it away. When he returned, Su Mu showed the paper to Yin Tao.
Ask him to identify where the person he saw last night is sitting.
Yin Tao pointed at the paper. Su Mu was shocked and confirmed again and again: "Cen Siwen! How could it be him? Are you sure it's him?"
Yin Tao nodded like a fool. Su Mu never expected that it would be Cen Siwen. She helped him in the morning, but he turned a blind eye when she fainted at night. This person is really confusing.
After finding out that the person that night was Cen Siwen, Su Mu paid attention to him every day and found that he still liked to stay alone in a corner, didn't talk much, and didn't seem to be familiar with Shang Yue at all, but he seemed to be particularly fond of cats.
For example, during a certain outdoor practice, Su Mu deliberately scared Shang Yue's cat away, and went to look for it with Shang Yue and the Zhou brothers and sisters. Unexpectedly, Cen Siwen actually asked for help. In the end, Cen Siwen found the black cat by the river.
In Cen Siwen's arms, it was like staying in his master's arms. Cen Siwen coaxed the cat into a docile and submissive person, even worse than his master Shang Yue. Even Shang Yue was shocked and clicked his tongue.
The five people were about to go back when they heard Zhou Yao shout: "Hey, look, aren't those Elder Linghua and Immortal Qinghui?"
Hearing this, the other four people all looked in the direction Zhou Yao pointed, and saw two figures, one blue and one white, walking down the mountain. Zhou Yao couldn't help but said: "The relationship between Elder Linghua and Immortal Qinghui is always so good.
, two fairy-like figures, standing together are really a perfect match, which makes people envious."
"What's a good match? How could my master like Situ Yan?" Su Mu stared at Situ Yan with a mocking look on his face.
Then I heard Shang Yue say: "Elder Linghua is so beautiful, Xiaomu, I really envy you to have such a master, I really want to have seven of you."
"Hey, why seven?" Zhou Yao asked curiously.
Shang Yue stared at Ling Huayin and said, "It's just a number. I just want to be with a beautiful woman every day. Death is not a pity."
Su Mu's face was unhappy, and seeing Shang Yue's infatuated look made him even more angry. He walked quickly to Ling Huayin and Situ Yan. Ling Huayin didn't expect to meet Su Mu here, and saw several other people.
, thinking that they were skipping school together, he feigned anger and said: "It should be class time now, why are you wandering around in the back hill?"
"Master, we didn't play hooky. It's outdoor practice time now. Shang Yue's cat suddenly ran away and we came to look for it. I didn't expect to meet Master here." Su Mu explained and gave Situ Yan a hostile look.
.
When Ling Huayin heard the name Shang Yue, she glanced at the faces of the other people, and she really felt that Shang Yue looked familiar.
When Shang Yue saw Ling Huayin looking at him, he was overjoyed and hurriedly stepped forward to say hello: "Disciple Shang Yue pays homage to the elder. Does the elder still remember me?"
Su Mu couldn't help cursing in his heart: Shang Yue, this boy, is afraid that he has the courage to covet the master's beauty. He really doesn't know the weight!
Ling Huayin glanced at Shang Yue and said, "Are you the one who raises cats?"
"Exactly, last time my cat injured the elder, I don't know the seriousness of it. I wonder if the elder's injury will be cured?"
Su Mu was startled and asked: "Master, were you also caught by a cat?"
"It's okay." Ling Huayin said this to Su Mu, and then she said to them: "Since the cat has been found, you should go back as soon as possible."
"yes."
