Chapter 241 Attitude
When I heard the words of the fourth master, I felt five thunders on my head, my head was buzzing, I stared at him, and even started to tremble when I spoke, "You...you...your...is your name Xie?"

The fourth master stared at me suspiciously, as if he didn't understand why I reacted like this, "What? Is there a problem? The family name of the master is Xie, but because of some things, this surname is Mo."

I can't hear other words, my mind is full of the sentence that the fourth master's surname is Xie.

You know, when I was at the Guangzhou Railway Station, Lin Fan greeted me many times and told me to be careful about people surnamed Xie.

And when I was in Aozi Village, I met the mother of the boy who looked exactly like me, and she also told me to be careful about the person surnamed Xie.

It was the words of the two of them that made me be wary of people surnamed Xie during this time. It can even be said that I have subconsciously regarded the person surnamed Xie as an enemy.

It is also for this reason that when facing Xie Leiting, I will be very careful, and in the end I can't wait to kill him directly.

But, who would have thought that the Fourth Master would also have the surname Xie.

This... This simply subverted my concept. Could it be that the person Lin Fan told me to be careful of was the Fourth Master?

If so, where do I go from here?
Or, is it wrong to worship him as a teacher?
For a moment, I didn't know what to say at all, I could only stare blankly at the fourth master, and it was as if I had knocked over the five-flavor bottle in my heart, full of sour, sweet, bitter, spicy and salty.

Seeing that I didn't speak, the fourth master asked me again, "Chuanzi, what's the matter with you? If you have something to say, just say it, don't worry about it."

While speaking, he took a look at me.

I shook my head and said, "No...no...it's okay...."

"Are you all right?" the fourth master asked, as if remembering something, he hurriedly said: "By the way, Chuanzi, I forgot to tell you that when you were in the underground world, because of your tampering in the secret passage, the three Xie brothers Two of them died, Xie Zaihong died of serious injuries and was paralyzed in bed, and Xie Leiting..."

As he said that, he glanced at me meaningfully, but didn't speak.

And when I heard this, I took a tight breath and quickly asked, "What's wrong with him?"

The reason why I am so nervous is that apart from what Lin Fan said to be careful about people surnamed Xie, the hatred between me and Xie Leiting alone is definitely a ticking time bomb for me if he is alive. It can even be said that as long as As long as he is alive, I will never have a peaceful life to live.

Therefore, I attach great importance to whether he is alive or dead.

The fourth master should have seen my worry, smiled, and said: "He, there should be no chance to trouble you within half a year. After half a year, you have to be more careful. As far as I know, Xie Leiting will report his flaws." However, you can rest assured that the teacher will try his best to deal with him and buy you a little more time, but this is not a long-term solution. You'd better let yourself gain a firm foothold in the Eighth Office as soon as possible. In this way, even if he If you want to kill you, you have to consider your identity more."

"How to gain a firm foothold in the Eighth Office?" I asked quickly.

He smiled, "It's simple, just do more tasks, and let the Eighth Office know that you are also a capable person."

After all, he seemed unwilling to say anything more, picked up his teacup and took a sip, then stared at me meaningfully.

Needless to say, being stared at by him like this, my heart was pounding, I swallowed subconsciously, and asked tentatively, "Fourth Master, there is one thing that I have never understood. When you were in Shenwu Mountain, you Zeng sharpened his knife vigorously, saying that he was going to kill someone, but you..."

I didn't ask about the latter part. I believe that the fourth master should know what I want to ask. After all, in Shenwu Mountain, she sharpened three knives and said that she was going to kill people. His script went down the mausoleum.

If it wasn't for his action back then, maybe I wouldn't have chased him down, and I wouldn't have gotten into a big conflict with Xie Leiting.

In other words, the foreshadowing of all of this began to be laid when the fourth master sharpened his knife.

Hearing my question, he smiled and said: "You said that, you are indeed going to kill people, but when I went, those three people had already left."

left?
Talk nonsense!

At that time, there were only Xie Leiting, Xie An, Xie Zaihong and Xie's three brothers in the mausoleum, and there were no other people at all.

However, the fourth master has already said this, I dare not ask further, mainly because I am afraid that the truth is too cruel, so I simply don't bother to ask further, but my attitude towards the fourth master has changed drastically, and I have become more vigilant .

Afterwards, the two of us chatted about Mohist institutions. To my disappointment, in the words of the fourth master, if you want to learn Mohist institutions well, you must master some crafts of all carpenters. Otherwise, you will blindly contact Mohist institutions. Institutions, not only can't learn well, but it may be counterproductive.

I was very depressed about this, but I didn't say anything, I just told him that I must first lay a solid foundation for carpentry.

At noon that day, I had a quick lunch at Master Four's house, and didn't stay long at his house, so I went straight back to the coffin shop.

For my departure, the fourth master did not keep me, but just told me that after he finished his work, he would definitely teach me the tricks of the Mohist school.

If I didn't know his surname Xie, I might believe it, but now, I only have one thought in my mind, the reason why he didn't teach me is just an excuse.

Someone will definitely ask, do you regret worshiping him as a teacher?

For this question, I can only answer three words, no regrets.

The reason is very simple, since I have become an apprentice, I naturally have to respect my teacher. As for whether the fourth master really has a plan for me, it is just a guess for the time being.

Therefore, before the truth is fully clarified, I still respect him as the Fourth Master.

When I returned to the coffin shop, it was almost afternoon. At that time, Su Xiaoman was cleaning up the dust in the coffin shop. When she saw me, she was surprised and said, "Brother, didn't you say that you will come back after school starts?"

I smiled awkwardly, and I didn't know how to explain it to her. After all, before I left, I told her that I would not be back in the near future and asked her to take care of the coffin shop. I came back in the afternoon in despair, so I hesitated Said: "It's nothing, by the way, Junior Sister, during the time I've been away, is there any business coming?"

When Su Xiaoman heard this, she frowned slightly, put down the broom in her hand, walked towards me, finally stopped three feet away from me, and said falteringly: "Brother, I... I don't know if I did something wrong .”

"What's the matter?" I asked with a blank look.

She raised her eyes to look at me, and said cautiously: "Just an hour after you left, someone came to the door. I thought it was too dangerous, so... just... I will help you shirk it."

"What's the matter?" I asked again.
