Chapter 549 - 549 Supervising Master
549 Supervising Master
When the time came, Su Hua would know what to do after reading the letter.
Gui You’s guess was right. He weighed the bottle in his hand before putting it away.
“Thank you, Master Gui You.”
Su Xiaolu bowed happily.
She still had to stay and go out to sea, so she could not do it herself. Old Wu’s martial arts skills were not good enough, and Gui You was the only suitable person for this task.
!!
“This trip will take at least five days back and forth. During these five days, keep an eye on the old man’s training. You can’t relax. When I’m not around, you’ll temporarily take my place. If you’re soft-hearted and relaxed, I’ll come back and punish you double.”
Gui You looked at Old Wu and said solemnly.
Old Wu’s eyes widened. “Double? Then would I still be alive?”
Gui You said indifferently, “So don’t be lazy.”
If he dared to slack off, he would dare to train him to death.
Old Wu looked sad and angry. “What kind of friend are you? I want to draw a line between us and cut ties.”
“Cut ties? That’s not up to you.”
Gui You snorted and retorted.
Old Wu was angry and looked at the sky sadly. He was already so old. Why did the world have to change? He was already so old, but he still had to suffer and learn!
Moreover, he had to learn it.
Su Xiaolu suppressed her laughter and promised solemnly, “Don’t worry, Master Gui You. I’ll definitely supervise my master.”
“Yes, go write a letter.”
Gui You nodded.
Su Xiaolu immediately returned to her room to write a letter.
After writing the letter, she handed it to Gui You. Then, she cooked and they ate. After dinner, Gui You went to get his horse and left.
At night, Su Xiaolu began to supervise Old Wu’s internal cultivation.
During this period of time, Old Wu’s Internal force had also become stronger. However, cultivation was always difficult. He sighed softly.
Su Xiaolu opened her eyes and asked with concern, “Master, what’s wrong? Does your hand hurt or your waist hurt? Shall I use my Internal force to soothe it for you?”
Old Wu groaned a few times. Su Xiaolu’s eyes were filled with concern, but she would not agree to Old Wu’s suggestion to stop practicing. Anyway, Gui You would not be able to tell anything at all if he stopped practicing for a few days. It was normal that he did not improve. No matter what Old Wu said, Su Xiaolu did not agree.
She fulfilled all of his requests. When it was time to relax, she would comfort him. However, it was impossible for him to rest.
Old Wu rolled his eyes. “Stupid girl, I’m your Master. Will you listen to me?”
Su Xiaolu smiled sweetly and said, “Master, you were my master before you started cultivating. Now that you’re cultivating, I’m Master Gui You’s subst.i.tute. Our ident.i.ties are different. I can’t listen to you now. If you’re tired, I can help you relax or you can take a pill.”
Even for the next few days, it was impossible to slack off.
Old Wu rolled his eyes and closed his eyes, ignoring Su Xiaolu.
This la.s.s had made up her mind. He should save his energy.
He had been taking the pills for a long time on the sea. Its effects were already saturated for him. It would be useless to eat it.
If eating pills meant that he did not have to work hard, then he would definitely eat them.
Reality proved that even if the world changed, if a person wanted to become stronger, they still had to pay what they had to pay. The path they had to take could not be any less. The spiritual liquid and medicinal pills could only make this path easier.
At midnight, the day of cultivation was over.
Su Xiaolu also went back to her room to sleep.
The next morning, she began to supervise Old Wu’s training again. She couldn’t let him stand, but he could still hold a stone in his hand while doing the horse stance.
When Jin Liu opened the door and saw this scene, he was dumbfounded.
Su Xiaolu asked, “Jin Liu, is there anything wrong with him?”
Su Xiaolu asked.
Only then did Jin Liu come back to his senses. He said, “Miss Su has been out at sea for many days and hasn’t returned. Master misses you, so I come to see if you’re back every day. If Miss Su is free, can you come back with me? Master happens to be looking for you.”
Su Xiaolu looked at Old Wu and said, “Master, I’ll go out first. Don’t slack off. If you slack off, we’ll double the training.”
Su Xiaolu went over and made a mark beside Old Wu.
Old Wu’s face was ashen. “Stupid girl, just you wait!”
When he regained his status as Master, he would definitely teach the girl a lesson!
Su Xiaolu smiled and left with Jin Liu.
Jin Liu didn’t even dare to take a few more glances at Old Wu. After leaving, he scratched his head and said, “Miss Su, the relationship between you and your master is really surprising. Divine doctor Wu is famous for being cold. Even to the empress, he has a sullen face.”
No matter how influential the other party was, Old Wu had a cold expression and would not give anyone a good att.i.tude. If they made him unhappy, he would leave without hesitation.
But to Su Xiaolu, Old Wu was no different from an ordinary person. His emotions were vivid on his face.
Su Xiaolu smiled. “I’m Master’s only disciple. Master dotes on me.”
He had doted on her since she was young. When she was born, Old Wu was gentler to her than others. The fate of the master and disciple had begun since the moment she was born.
The old man was not a kind person, but back then, he was willing to take her family in.
He had liked her since then. Back then, he had also secretly poked her cheek and looked at her a few more times. All of this was because he liked her. After she became his disciple, she was the old man’s favorite. She was the only disciple.
“I can tell.”
Jin Liu smiled.
There were many rumors about divine doctor Wu when he was young. It was said that he hated women. It was a taboo for women to approach him.
No matter how cute a girl was, he wouldn’t take another look at her. He wouldn’t even look at anyone. He had never married in his life and was carefree. He took in a disciple in his sixties and gave all the good things to his only disciple. Taboos? That didn’t exist in front of his precious disciple.
The Su family’s past was both unfortunate and the greatest blessing.
They arrived at the residence.
Su Xiaolu checked on Zhou Zhi first. Zhou Zhi had been recuperating in peace and looked good.
“Come, I’ll take your pulse first.”
Su Xiaolu sat down opposite Zhou Zhi and smiled.
Zhou Zhi was playing chess alone. He stretched out his hand and said softly, “Xiaolu, did it go smoothly? Recently, the big Kun has appeared in the sea. If you want to go out to sea next time, come with us. The things we want to catch are different. I just want everyone to be safer together.”
Su Xiaolu retracted her hand. “Your body is stable, and the remaining poison is in a balanced state.”
“Can I see your legs? Are they smooth now?”
Su Xiaolu looked at Zhou Zhi and spoke. Their gazes met and Zhou Zhi looked away. For a moment, he was fl.u.s.tered. He did not want to show his legs in front of Su Xiaolu.
Su Xiaolu could tell that he was unwilling. She quickly gave up and asked, “It’s fine if you don’t want me to look. Then I’ll ask you something. Can you tell me the truth?”
Zhou Zhi nodded and looked at Su Xiaolu apologetically. “Xiaolu, I’m sorry.”
He didn’t want her to see his ugly legs. No.
