Chapter 4070 The Village Owner Treats Zhao You Differently
Zhang Lichen nodded and handed her a baggage: "This is for you."
"What is this?" The child took it and opened it, finding a bag full of gold and silver jewelry and a thick roll of silver notes.
She was surprised and laughed at the same time: "This is too much."
"This is all the offerings I have received during my years as the Eighth Elder. About ten thousand taels of silver." Zhang Lichen explained, "It's not much. Is it enough for your expenses on the road?"
"……enough."
"You are a princess, born to be delicate. My master wanted to send a few disciples to accompany you home, but I thought that since you are good at martial arts, you shouldn't need anyone else to follow and protect you."
"Thank you for your concern, Master. I can do it alone."
"Then let's go. Be careful on the way and don't be fooled."
“I will never be cheated again, nor will my money be stolen from me.”
"Go ahead."
"Master, I'm leaving."
The child knelt down and kowtowed to him, "I will definitely come back to visit you. You must take care of yourself."
Zhang Lichen nodded and said nothing.
The child, carrying two bundles, one big and one small, took the ink balls sent by Wu Laosan and got on his horse.
Wu Laosan looked at her mother-in-law with tears in her eyes.
The main reason is that I can't bear to leave Mo Tuan.
Mo Tuan was made fat by him.
The child rode away, turning back three times with each step, and finally disappeared at the end of the road.
"Hey, let's just leave..." Wu Laosan stared blankly. Knowing that Mo Tuan could not be seen, he sighed, bowed to Zhang Lichen, and left listlessly.
Zhang Lichen stood on the side of the road, his face still calm and calm, without any change.
The so-called sadness of separation will never appear on his face.
"Your beloved disciple is gone, aren't you a little bit reluctant to leave, Master?" Mu Gong walked over with his hands behind his back and asked with a half-smile.
Zhang Lichen said calmly: "Farewell between life and death is just an ordinary thing in life."
Mu Gong probed and looked at him: "Did I see it wrong?"
"What did you see wrong?"
"Does the owner like that girl?"
"You're wrong."
"I thought that people like the village owner would not bother to deny any of his thoughts." Mu Gong smiled, "Actually, I have already seen that the village owner treats Zhao You differently."
"She is my only disciple."
"Why talk what you mean?" Mu Gong snorted, "During the selection competition, when you first saw Zhao You, you fell in love with her at first sight, right? Otherwise, based on your character, no matter how powerful a genius is, you will never He will bypass the village owner and directly guard his direct disciples."
Zhang Lichen said calmly: "If I have feelings for her as a man and a woman, why should I accept her as my disciple?"
"Then you have to ask the owner of the village himself." Mu Gong said with a smile, "Maybe the owner of the village is a person who ignores secular ethics and does not care about the status and taboos of master and disciple?"
"Don't use your thoughts to make assumptions about others."
Zhang Lichen said coldly, turned around and walked towards the mountain.
Mu Gong followed: "Don't the owner of the village want to keep the woman he likes by his side forever?"
"Is there anything in this world that is permanent?"
Zhang Lichen's rhetorical question sounded to Mu Gong's ears as an admission of her previous doubts.
Mu Gong immediately became excited: "Sure enough, I saw it well. Lord, why are you like this? Since you like Zhao You, you should keep her and marry her!"
Zhang Lichen ignored her.
Mu Gong chased after her: "Aren't you afraid that she will never come back?"
"I never thought she would come back."
