My apprentice is not easy

Chapter 22 Gentleness
A sense of grief swept through all his thoughts, and Shi Heng didn't know how many times he stabbed him, but in the end, his eyes were bloodshot.

Throwing the dagger, Shi Heng sat slumped on the ground, raised his head, and focused his eyes on the night sky.

The night sky is still clear and clear, no different from the past.

It's just that something has changed, and it's hard to get back.

Shi Heng stood up with his hands on the ground, and looked around.

The woman was no longer there, and the shawl on her shoulders disappeared completely.

Only the messy battlefield and him were left.

Shi Heng was stunned for a moment, feeling at a loss for a while.

In the future... what will happen in the future?

Before he could think about this question clearly, he felt a few breaths and suddenly approached.

Several people landed, looked around the situation, and then set their eyes on Shi Heng.

"Hmph! After all, it's a monster, so you can't raise it well!"

"Did Shi Jinghe actually get killed? Hahaha, interesting! Interesting!"

"Xiao Heng'er, I'm suddenly interested in you."

"..."

Shi Heng's gaze gradually changed from calm to disappointed.

Yes.

Even his biological father was lying to him, how dare he think that these former good elders would be ignorant?

Shi Heng clenched the nine-tailed woodcarving in his hand, his gaze gradually became firmer.

Lihenzong, he will come back!

At least before he dies, he wants all the members of the Lihen Sect, and all those involved in the research on the power of demons, to go to hell!

"No, he's running away!"

Danfeng Zhao Yue shouted urgently, and flew forward with a movement.

However, a pure white light curtain appeared around Shi Heng's body, swept him, and disappeared in place in an instant.

Only a little bit of white light was left, which gradually dissipated.

The complexions of several people suddenly darkened.

"We can't let him escape!"

"Let's not talk about the dedication of these years... His own meaning is even greater!"

Zhao Yue snorted coldly.

"Issuing a wanted warrant, the reason... the young patriarch, Shi Heng, tortured and killed his father, and caused chaos in the sect. It has been confirmed that he was controlled by demons. Order, arrest him immediately!"

……

Rainy night, cold.

Shen Ling suddenly opened her eyes, a look of bewilderment flashed across her expression.

It took a few seconds to recover, pulled the edge of the quilt to wrap himself tightly, and glanced outside the room.

I always feel like I had some strange dream, but I can't remember what it was.

It's so weird.

Shen Ling caressed her heart and took a few deep breaths to dispel the sense of loss in her heart.

Lie down, close your eyes, and feel sleepy.

...can't sleep.

...I always feel that there is something I want to do, but I can't make it in the end.

……what is it then?

"Crack!"

There was a sudden sound from the window, and then, the cold wind blew in along the opened window.

Shen Ling: "..."

Does her house have the attribute of attracting thieves?In a short period of time, it was broken into twice...

"Tap, tap..."

The sound of wet footsteps approaching slowly.

Shen Ling thought for a while, but didn't move.

At this time, with her eyes closed, she couldn't see who was coming, what was her body type, and if it was some kind of thick-skinned guy, she...wouldn't be the only one to deliver the food properly?

Why don't you just wait and see what kind of route the person is coming from and what he wants to do.

The sound of footsteps stopped beside the bed, and Shen Ling's fingers touched the jade ring on her index finger unconsciously.

But I felt that the raised edge of the quilt was pressed inward.

"..."

Shen Ling couldn't hold back and opened her eyes.

Four eyes facing each other.

The screen freezes immediately.

Shi Heng slowly withdrew his hand and blinked his eyes.

"That...I..."

Shen Ling laughed shortly and asked him.

"Cover the quilt?"

Shi Heng was stunned for a moment, then nodded slowly.

"……hold head high."

You are still proud, you still agree?

Shen Ling looked at him expressionlessly, her eyes were cold.

But Shi Heng lowered his eyes, suddenly bent over, and hugged her.

Shen Ling: ...?
Shi Heng sniffed, and suddenly there was more crying in his voice.

"There is nothing...the home is gone, the parents are gone, what should I do in the future..."

He didn't want to cry at first, he had already controlled his emotions.

But at the moment when he saw Shen Ling, he suddenly couldn't help it.

Shen Ling was stunned for a while before turning her attention to Shi Heng.

The clothes had been washed by the rain, but the pungent smell of blood still couldn't be concealed; there were injuries on his body, especially on his neck...it seemed that blood was still oozing; he was crying very depressed, and his breath was full of sadness.

I haven't seen you in just half a month. What happened to this young man?
Shen Ling didn't know.

But it didn't affect her, she softened her heart.

Shen Ling sighed softly, put her hand on Shi Heng's back, and patted it lightly.

"It's alright, it's alright."

Shi Heng was taken aback, tears flowed more happily, and his arms hugged even tighter.

Shen Ling let him hold her, and cried a lot.

After about half a stick of incense passed, Shi Heng came back to his senses and noticed what he had done.

He let go of his hand and took a few steps back.

"Yes, sorry."

"fine."

Shen Ling shook her head with a smile, lifted the quilt, and got out of bed.

She asked as she walked to the table in the house, picked up the teapot and poured tea.

"Is it calm?"

Shi Heng nodded slowly.

"Ah."

Shen Ling walked back with the tea and handed him the teacup.

"Is there anything you want to say?"

Shi Heng shook his head, took the teacup, and then was stunned.

It turned out to be hot tea.

Shen Ling didn't pay attention to these, and after getting the answer he didn't want to say, she suppressed the curiosity in her heart and walked to the cabinet beside her.

Although I don't know the specifics, based on Shi Heng's tragic situation at this time, and the information revealed when he cried.

This young man had just experienced a tragic disaster.

Who is willing to speak out the pain in his heart at will?
Isn't that tearing the wound with your own hands and showing it to others?

She could understand that when Shi Heng was in despair, he broke down and cried in front of her.

It is also understandable that Shi Heng is unwilling to confide in her, a "stranger" who has only met once.

Shen Ling took out two small jade bottles from the cabinet, thought for a while, took another one, turned around and walked back.

Pass the small jade bottles to Shi Heng one by one.

"This one is for external application; this one is for internal use; this one...restores spiritual power."

Thanks to a certain idler, who stuffed these things into her luggage, after three years, she actually used them!
Shi Heng picked it up one by one, his nose was sore, and he felt the urge to cry again.

But Shen Ling stretched out her hand and patted him on the shoulder with a serious expression.

"After you remember, convert it to me according to the market price!"

Shi Heng instantly lost his tears.

"……I see."

Shen Ling nodded in satisfaction.

"Do you need help with external application? This is a free gift!"

"...No need, I can do it myself."

"Okay." Shen Ling reached out for a coat, put it on her body, and walked out the door, "There is a vacant room next to me, I will take you there, you can make do with it for one night, and we will talk about other things tomorrow."

"……thanks."

After Shi Heng settled down, Shen Ling relaxed and went back to her room. After getting into bed, her movements stopped suddenly.

Wait, what did she just do?
A soft-hearted, taking in a big trouble who might have chasing soldiers behind him?
