Chapter 202: Lonely Like Snow
At present, everyone in the county magistrate's office except Ximen Xue has died.
Captain Zhao temporarily acted as Ximen Xue's "guardian" to watch over her, while others helped clean up the ruins on Ximen's mansion and filled the big pit on the ground with soil.
After an hour of concerted efforts, the dilapidated Ximen Mansion was finally cleaned up a little. At least, there was at least a place to place these three coffins. No, to be precise, four, but Ximen Bao's one was only dressed.
There is no elder in Ximen Mansion, and the burial ceremony can only be discussed before everyone can make a decision.
As for Ximen Xue’s place, Captain Zhao’s family was just a small family and had no free place to live in Ximen Xue, so Lin Luo finally decided to take the girl to live in Lantian Escort Agency first.
"Xiaoxue, you go to the Lantian Escort Agency with Master Lin first, and Uncle Zhao will come to see you tomorrow." Captain Zhao led Ximen Xue to Lin Luo's side.
Ximen Xue's eyes were red and swollen, like two big red duck eggs, but the pair of eyes had only one color, and Lin Luo could see through it at a glance, dull, and the only dullness.
Lin Luo patted Ximen Xue on the shoulder and signaled her to follow her. Ximen Xue had no expression. With the words of comfort from the villagers, she also knew why her family suffered such an unfortunate disaster. Just because her father was the county magistrate and the partner wanted to find someone, how could a father answer the answer? So the final outcome was that the whole family was executed. She was finally rescued.
Lin Luo was a little worried that Ximen Xue would suddenly encounter such a big blow at a young age. She faced the facts.
Walking in front, Ximen Xue followed Lin Luo, following step by step. The figure in front of her opened an extraordinary door for her that did not belong to this "world", and showed her something even more strange. Moreover, this power could allow her to fulfill her only wish.
"Big brother, isn't it difficult to learn martial arts?" This was the first sentence that Ximen Xue said. After saying that, his feet were put together, standing there, looking up and waiting for Lin Luo's reply.
Big brother...
Lin Luo stopped and looked down at Ximen Xue. He already knew what Ximen Xue was going to say next and what she thought. She wanted to learn martial arts, but she wanted to take revenge! However, Ximen Xue's name to Lin Luo gave Lin Luo an idea that this child could save her. At least, in Ximen Xue's eyes, Lin Luo was the eldest brother who saved her, not a cold and arrogant leader Lin.
"Why don't you call me Master Lin? If you are more respectful, maybe I will have the idea of accepting you?" Lin Luo said with a serious expression.
Chen Xin and Xuan Jian couldn't say anything at this moment. After all, Ximen Xue was looking for Lin Luo to become a disciple, and the girl suddenly suffered a life change, so she stopped talking. The two of them walked forward, leaving only Lin Luo and Ximen Xue here.
"If I call you, Master Lin, will you accept me?" Ximen Xue finally showed a hint of hope in her eyes, and she felt a little vitality.
Ximen Xue is ten years old, and Lin Luo is only twenty years old. If you want to change her to be the leader in the ten-year gap, Ximen Xue is indeed awkward in her heart. Compared to the cold leader’s feeling, Ximen Xue’s involuntary recognition in her heart turned the tide, Lin Luo’s handsome image as a big brother.
However, these are no big deal in measuring how to get revenge by learning martial arts!
"President Lin, please accept the little girl as your disciple..." Ximen Xue said and knelt at Lin Luo's feet.
"You must know that one day is a teacher and a father for life. If you are preparing to worship me as a teacher, then I will perform the duties of your parents on behalf of your deceased parents in the future. You also need to listen to me. Are you willing?" Lin Luo guided Ximen Xue step by step towards the "trap" he set up.
Ximen Xue was slightly stunned and considered the words of his elder brother. He was a master for life and a father. It seemed that this was the reason why his apprentice treated his master. Since his parents were not here and the master was his father, he naturally had to obey his master's words and treat his master like his parents.
"This is Xiaoxue!" Ximen Xue nodded in agreement.
Lin Luo shook his head. Ximen Xue is about to lose herself in order to avenge his revenge. In fact, Lin Luo has been preparing to lead Ximen Xue up the mountain since the beginning. First, Ximen Bao benefited the people, but now he only left a descendant. As Lin Luo, who was once helped, naturally could not forget this kindness. Second, Ximen Xue's age is also the time to learn martial arts. Lin Luo did not prevent her from taking revenge. Her parents were irreconcilable. Revenge was a must, but she wanted to kill her enemies with her hands, which was not something she could do now. Practicing martial arts rashly would only fall into a demonic obstacle and would never be repaid.
That would be more like pushing her into the fire pit than helping her!
"Then I told you to give up the idea of revenge within ten years, you can do it!" Lin Luo asked back.
After Lin Luo asked, he stared at Ximen Xue's eyes. He could see that his throbbing eyes were flashing with strange colors.
If Ximen Xue answered that she could let go, Lin Luo would hesitate whether to accept Ximen Xue as his disciple. What he needed was honesty, an answer that was in the heart, not a answer that could conceal his inner thoughts for the sake of immediate interests.
It depends on emotions and original heart. Lin Luo pays more attention to a person's original heart. Only by following the original heart can one have no regrets.
After all, children are children, and there are always emotions that you want to suppress but cannot suppress in your innocent eyes.
What Lin Luo saw was struggle!
Should I give up taking revenge within ten years and go to the elder brother as my teacher? Or should I strongly express my true thoughts, I want to take revenge! But the price is that I may be rejected by the elder brother and lose the opportunity to take revenge closest to her.
"I'm sorry, my elder brother, I still want to avenge my parents!"
Since he lost the opportunity, there was no point in going back with his elder brother. Ximen Xue turned around and walked towards the collapsed Ximen Mansion. Although there was no complete place, that place was his home after all.
"Well, you will be a disciple of the Lingyun Sect in the future, but your master is not me." Lin Luo left a voice, and he knew that Ximen Xue would catch up.
"Who is that!" Ximen Xue's voice came from afar, and her childishness was not lost.
Lin Luo put a face on his side, and the morning glow reflected on his cheeks. The edges and corners on the sides were like the most amazing work in the world. He raised a smile and said, "My senior sister!"
Ximen Xue smiled and ran to Lin Luo all the way, and asked curiously: "The master's martial arts must be better than the eldest brother, right?"
Lin Luo thought about it and finally nodded. This was the first time he saw a smile on Ximen Xue's face.
