Chapter 30: It Was Done by Elder Martial Sister Bai Lian! (1)
The wind was bleak.
The leaves returned to dust.
Seeing Bai Lian fling the bamboo leaf in her hand, An Lan finally came out of her reverie.
She raised her hand, wanting to rub her nose wings, to drive away the sour taste.
But as soon as she thought of Bai Lian being right in front of her, she immediately crushed the thought.
As a Master.
You must have dignity!
She crossed her arms, slowly turned around, and faced Bai Lian with her profile.
"I can see that you are getting a bit carried away lately, as if forgetting your own identity!"
An Lan gave a soft hum.
But her height and body shape really makes it difficult to cause fear in people.
After a few seconds, she spoke again before Bai Lian had a chance to explain.
"Forget it, for the sake that you come to see me first…", An Lan paused and changed her statement, "You must have come here to find me for something important, I just happen to have something to ask you too. Follow me into the cave first."
"Yes."
Bai Lian answered obediently.
It would be considered "transgressing the bounds" for helping the master remove the bamboo leaf from her forehead. If she did more, it would definitely provoke the master's displeasure.
Then she wouldn't only be punished by a spanking.
Bai Lian and An Lan went into the cave one after another.
Even though winter has come, it's still incredibly damp and cold inside the cave.
But Bai Lian likes it.
Here there is no deceit, only the "kind" master and the "obedient" disciple.
Here, she doesn't have to worry about getting beaten to death while walking.
Here, she was tightly wrapped by her master, even the air she breathed had the scent of her master.
Bai Lian sat down at the side of the bed.
At a glance, a pair of freshly changed white short socks hung on the bedside.
Brush-
Before she had a chance to take a closer look, the socks had already been stored in An Lan's storage ring.
"I…"
"I…"
Both wanted to talk, so they "bumped into each other" fiercely.
After a moment of silence in the cave.
In the end, it was Bai Lian who broke the silence.
She plucked out a fiery red Medicinal Pill, still steaming hot, from her chest.
[Green Glaze Red Fire Pill.]
This is the mission reward she got when she was at Canglong Garden.
Bai Lian had originally intended it to be used for her own escape.
But she wasn't injured at Canglong Garden, so it should be given to the master.
She said, "Master, this green pill should be of some help with your injury, so please take it."
An Lan was silent for a moment.
The white mist rising from the pill blurred her vision.
She originally wanted to give Bai Lian a lesson as an opportunity.
A lesson about [How to Respect your Master]!
But now it seems unnecessary.
You see, Bai Lian still remembers her.
"…"
While An Lan hesitated, Bai Lian reached out her hand and softly urged.
"Master, shall I feed it to you? The medicine's energy will lose if it's exposed to the air for too long."
Bai Lian absolutely doesn't intend to use the opportunity to put her fingers into An Lan's mouth.
An Lan came to her senses and snatched the Medicinal Pill from Bai Lian's hands, but she didn't take the medicine.
She's not hurt, so why should she eat?!
An Lan sitting on the bed said, "I have received your kind intentions, but within the few days you were away, my wound has already healed completely. I called for you to come in just to tell you this."
"Hmm?"
Bai Lian was expressionless.
Suddenly, it was as if a gate had been opened, and a wave of surprise burst forth.
"Really?"
She stood up suddenly, and she tried to reach out and stroke An Lan's head.
But after being stared at coldly by An Lan, she smiled awkwardly and put her hand back.
This is her Master, not her Martial Sister.
An Lan's gaze gradually softened, and she said, "If there's nothing else, go and see your Martial Sisters."
Her voice sounded a little dull.
Bai Lian nodded gently.
Okay.
Before leaving, she still took out the Future Mirror and let An Lan take a look at it, afraid that there would be marks left by the Taixuan Taoist Sect on the mirror.
After confirming that the mirror was in good condition, Bai Lian left with a light and quick step.
When she reached the mountain road, An Lan suddenly lay on the bed sideways.
After the candle was blown out, the light in the cave dimmed.
She didn't take off her clothes or shoes, but only lifted up the green pill with a little bit of light coming in from outside the cave.
She held it higher and higher until her hand could no longer be extended.
So, An Lan stared dumbly at the Medicinal Pill.
