The frail counselor you said, you fight against three heroes alone?

Old Cai walked into the cave and saw Xi Yu lying on the ground. He was furious and thought he was pretending. He kicked him and yelled, "Stop pretending to be dead!"

But Xiyu didn't react. Old Cai was shocked and squatted down to touch his forehead. It was burning hot and he said to himself, "It's bad, he's sick."

He shouted at the top of his voice: "Wenshuang, come here quickly!"

At this time, Cai Wenshuang was not far outside the cave. Hearing his father's anxious shouting, he ran into the cave.

When Cai Wenshuang entered the cave and saw Xi Yu unconscious, his expression tensed and he quickly squatted down to feel his pulse.

The sleeping Xi Yu was still struggling in the nightmare. Xiao Hong's blurry face emerged in the mist. He was anxious, his body was burning hot, and he felt very uncomfortable. He hoped to wake up soon.

Old Cai stood by, watching his daughter Cai Wenshuang busying around, his brows furrowed even deeper.

Cai Wenshuang first carefully felt Xi Yu's pulse, then gently lifted his eyelids to check, and he already had a judgment in his mind.

She quickly took out a few herbs from the cloth bag she carried with her. These herbs were all picked with great effort in the mountains and carefully dried and preserved.

Cai Wen cleaned the herbs skillfully, found a few stones, and built a makeshift "stove". He then took some dry firewood from the corner of the cave and lit it.

The flame suddenly jumped up, illuminating her focused face.

Old Cai couldn't help but mutter, "Girl, you better be careful, this man's identity is unknown..."

Before he could finish his words, he was interrupted by Cai Wenshuang.

"Dad, saving people is the most important thing. I can't take care of those things right now."

After a while, the water in the medicine pot began to boil, and the fragrance of the herbs filled the cave.

Cai Wenshuang stirred it with a branch from time to time, and his eyes never left the medicine jar.

Although Old Cai was full of worries and kept pacing in the cave, he no longer spoke. He just looked at Xi Yu from time to time, hoping that he would wake up soon.

After the medicine was cooked, Cai Wenshuang carefully filtered out the soup and brought it to Xiyu's mouth.

But Xiyu's teeth were clenched tightly and nothing could be fed into him.

Cai Wenshuang frowned, turned around and rummaged in the cloth bag again, took out a thin bamboo tube, gently pried open Xi Yu's mouth, inserted one end of the bamboo tube, and then slowly poured the medicine soup down the tube.

Seeing this, Mr. Cai couldn't help but secretly admire his daughter's wit.

On Kunlun Mountain, the sun shines on every corner of the Taoist temple, exuding an ancient and tranquil atmosphere.

Luo Xiaoyu was carrying water, the bucket swaying with his steps. He gritted his teeth and walked step by step with great effort, his forehead covered with fine beads of sweat.

Guanglingzi hurried over, forcing a polite smile on his face, and approached Luo Xiaoyu and said, "Luo Xiaoyu, you don't have to work today."

Luo Xiaoyu raised her eyes, her eyes full of displeasure, and replied fiercely, "We can't eat and drink for free here, how can we not work?"

Guanglingzi knew that Luo Xiaoyu was mocking him, but he still said with a smile: "Don't do it. Talk to me."

Luo Xiaoyu frowned, feeling very annoyed, but she couldn't just walk away in disgust. She just said unhappily, "If you have anything to say, just say it now. I don't have the time to waste here with you."

Guanglingzi scratched his head and was about to speak, but seemed a little hesitant. He opened his mouth but couldn't say anything for a while.

Luo Xiaoyu just stood there, carrying water, staring coldly at Guanglingzi, waiting for him to make his words clear.

Guanglingzi put on a polite smile, came up to her and said, "Luo Xiaoyu, the two masters are about to come out of retreat. You must not tell them about the time when I asked you and Xiaohong to do more work, otherwise we Taoist priests will be punished."

Luo Xiaoyu heard this, her eyes were full of sarcasm, and she sneered: "You usually ask us to do more work, and you want to cover my mouth? Why shouldn't I say more? We have been looking forward to Master coming out of seclusion so that we can complain!"

When Guanglingzi heard this, the smile on his face froze, and he secretly groaned in his heart, and hurriedly waved his hands to explain: "Xiaoyu, this is all a misunderstanding. Everyone just wants to train you, there is no other intention."

Luo Xiaoyu slammed the bucket down, splashing water, and straightened her back and glared at Guanglingzi.

"Training? I think it's bullying! It's not like I don't have work to do in Kunlun Mountain. Why should all the dirty and tiring work fall on me? Xiaohong is weak, and she has suffered a lot."

Beads of sweat appeared on Guanglingzi's forehead. He knew very well that Luo Xiaoyu and Xiaohong did much more work than others. Now that his master had come out of seclusion, if he was really reported, he would definitely be in trouble.

He rolled his eyes and put on a bitter face again: "Xiaoyu, please forgive me this time. I will definitely help you in the future. I will also think of you if there are any benefits. Okay?"

Luo Xiaoyu crossed her arms across her chest, a look of disdain on her face.

"Humph, I won't trust you unless you take over all the dirty work and do it yourself!"

Xiaohong hurried over with tiny steps, her eyes full of concern, and asked softly, "Brother Xiaoyu, what happened?"

Seeing this, Guanglingzi immediately put on a smile, nodded and said to Xiaohong: "Xiaohong, the two masters are about to come out of retreat. You have always been kind-hearted. When the time comes, I beg you to say a few good words in front of the masters. Don't complain that we Taoists bullied you. This is all a misunderstanding!"

Luo Xiaoyu stepped forward and stood in front of Xiaohong. Her brows were furrowed, her eyes were full of disgust, and she shouted at Guanglingzi, "Xiaohong, ignore him! We have suffered so much injustice in our daily lives that I must complain. This is not a training at all, it is clearly treating us as coolies, pushing all the dirty and tiring work onto us. I want to see what the masters have to say."

Xiaohong looked hesitant, biting her lower lip, and her little hands nervously tugged at the corner of her clothes.

She looked at Luo Xiaoyu's determined expression, then looked at Guanglingzi's pleading look, and said softly: "Brother Xiaoyu, if we file a complaint, will our lives be even more difficult in the future..."

Luo Xiaoyu slightly raised his head, looking firmly at the retreat in the distance. The stone door there trembled slightly, and a faint light appeared. The two masters Qingfeng and Mingyue were about to appear. He said in a deep voice: "Xiaohong, don't be afraid. We have the right to go all over the world. We can't always swallow our anger."

Guanglingzi's face turned pale and red, and he secretly groaned in his heart. He knew very well that if Luo Xiaoyu succeeded in her complaint, he and those lazy Taoists would be in trouble. But now he had no way to deal with these two stubborn people, and could only hope that he could persuade them to change their ways.

Luo Xiaoyu still glared at Guanglingzi fiercely, her tone full of resentment.

Guanglingzi's face was filled with shame. He lowered his head and did not dare to look directly into Luo Xiaoyu's eyes. He just kept apologizing.

"Xiaoyu, I am sorry for you. I have not fulfilled my responsibility as a senior brother. Please be magnanimous and forgive me this time."

Xiaohong gently pulled Luo Xiaoyu's sleeve, with a hint of worry and persuasion in her eyes.

"Brother Xiaoyu, forget it. Since Senior Brother has said so, and if we really file a complaint, we will see each other all the time in the future, which is not good."

Luo Xiaoyu frowned slightly, looked at Xiaohong, then looked at Guanglingzi. The anger in her heart subsided a little, but she still felt a little unwilling.

"Xiao Hong, you are just too kind. They have made us suffer a lot in the past."

Guanglingzi nodded and bowed quickly to respond.

"Yes, yes, it's all our fault. I will change in the future and make sure this won't happen again."

Luo Xiaoyu snorted coldly.

"I hope you'll keep your word. If I find you bullying others again, I won't let you go so easily."

Guanglingzi responded hurriedly: "Of course, of course. I swear on my heart of Taoism."

Seeing that the situation had calmed down temporarily, Xiaohong breathed a sigh of relief and said to Luo Xiaoyu, "Brother Xiaoyu, let's not think about this for now and go back."

Luo Xiaoyu looked at Xiaohong, then at Guanglingzi, and finally sighed and said, "Forget it, since Xiaohong pleads for mercy, I will not pursue this matter any further."

Guanglingzi felt as if he had been pardoned. A smile of gratitude instantly covered his face and he bowed hurriedly.

"Thank you, Brother Xiaoyu, for your magnanimity. Thank you, thank you very much!"

Luo Xiaoyu raised her head slightly, her expression stern, and then spoke.

"But don't think we can just let it go so easily. We must make all the Taoist priests who participated in bullying us come here and apologize to us in person."

Guanglingzi's smile froze and he looked embarrassed. After hesitating for a moment, he gritted his teeth and agreed.

"Okay, Brother Xiaoyu, that's no problem. You just wait here, I'll go get them all right away, it will be quick." After saying that, he turned around and left in a hurry, his steps a little hurried.

Xiao Hong looked at Guang Lingzi's back with a worried look on her face, and whispered to Luo Xiaoyu: "Brother Xiaoyu, will this offend too many people?"

Luo Xiaoyu patted Xiaohong's shoulder with a firm look in her eyes.

"Xiaohong, we can't keep feeling aggrieved. This time we must let them know that we are not easy to bully."

Guanglingzi hurriedly shuttled around the Taoist temple, and after much persuasion, he finally gathered all the Taoists together.

Everyone gathered together and immediately became very excited when they heard that they had to apologize to Luo Xiaoyu and Xiaohong. A tall and thin Taoist priest pouted his lips, looking very dissatisfied.

"They are just guests from outside our city, doing some work here, so they should just pay for their board and lodging. Why should they ask us to apologize?"

As soon as these words were spoken, many people echoed them.

When Guanglingzi saw this, his face darkened and he shouted loudly.

"You are so confused! Now that our two masters are about to come out of retreat, if they really want to file a complaint, who among us will be able to escape with the consequences?"

When the Taoists heard this, they looked at each other. Although they were unwilling, they did not dare to say anything more.

In desperation, the group walked slowly towards Luo Xiaoyu's room.

At this time, Xiaohong was sitting obediently beside the bed, while Luo Xiaoyu was standing in front of the window with her arms folded across her chest, looking out with a stern expression.

Hearing the footsteps, Luo Xiaoyu turned around and swept his sharp eyes over the group of Taoists.

The Taoist priests looked at each other, and finally the one who led the way cleared his throat, stepped forward, and said reluctantly: "Um... Luo Xiaoyu, Xiaohong, we were wrong before, and we apologize for offending you. Please forgive us."

The others also responded sparsely, their voices were uneven and their attitudes were not sincere.

Xiaohong lowered her head slightly, gently pulled Luo Xiaoyu's sleeve, and whispered: "Brother Xiaoyu, forget it..."

Luo Xiaoyu snorted coldly, her eyes still cold, obviously not satisfied with this perfunctory apology.

After a while, Luo Xiaoyu curled up the corners of his mouth into a sneer, his eyes full of ridicule and anger. He took a step forward and faced the Taoists.

"Humph, you are sensible to come and apologize now, but why didn't you think about the consequences when you bullied us like that before? You can hide for a while, but can you hide forever?"

He paused, his eyes piercing as he swept over the crowd, "You guys throw all the dirty work to us, do you really think we won't complain?"

The Taoists blushed and some wanted to explain, but were suppressed by Luo Xiaoyu's aura and could not speak.

Luo Xiaoyu became angrier and angrier as she spoke, and her voice got louder.

"What? You don't have the guts to kill us, so you can only do bad things behind our backs? I tell you, this time I will let you go for Xiao Hong's plea. If it happens again, I will let the two masters judge it!"

Xiaohong looked reluctant and pulled Luo Xiaoyu's arm and shook it gently.

"Brother Xiaoyu, don't be angry, they know they are wrong."

Luo Xiaoyu took a deep breath and calmed down a little.

A burly Taoist priest with a face full of flesh suddenly stood up, veins popping out on his neck, and shouted at the top of his voice: "We have already apologized humbly, what else do you want? Do you have to be unreasonable and take advantage of us?"

Luo Xiaoyu was so angry that her face turned red, her eyes widened, and she slammed the table hard with a "bang", and the teacups on the table began to shake.

"So what if I don't accept it? I remember every evil thing you did in the past. You can just let it go with this perfunctory apology today? Dream on! I will complain to the two masters and see how long you can keep your arrogance!"

The atmosphere in the room suddenly became tense and was about to get out of control.

Guanglingzi was so anxious that beads of sweat appeared on his forehead. He took a quick step to the hot-tempered Taoist priest, raised his hand and slapped him, shouting angrily: "Shut up! Stop talking nonsense here. Can you afford to cause a big disaster?"

He turned around and bowed repeatedly to Luo Xiaoyu.

"Brother Xiaoyu, calm down. He is ignorant. Please don't argue with him. Let's talk it out."

Luo Xiaoyu's chest heaved violently. She gritted her teeth, glared fiercely at the Taoist priest who was causing trouble, and suppressed her anger without further flaring up.

For a moment, the room was in a stalemate, no one dared to say another word, only the sound of heavy breathing came one after another. The storm in Kunlun Mountain was getting more and more intense, and no one knew how it would end.

Guanglingzi stamped his feet anxiously, winked at the hot-tempered Taoist priest, and shouted in a low voice: "Why are you still standing there? Apologize to Brother Xiaoyu immediately!"

The Taoist blushed, full of reluctance. He looked up and saw Guanglingzi glaring at him angrily. He was afraid of his master's majesty, so he pouted and said in a muffled voice, "I... I just spoke without restraint, please don't take it to heart."

Luo Xiaoyu snorted coldly, her expression eased slightly, and she waved her hand.

"Okay, I've vented my anger, so let's just leave it at that this time. You guys should take care of yourselves from now on, and I won't say anything more in front of Taoist priests Qingfeng and Mingyue."

When everyone heard this, they secretly breathed a sigh of relief, nodded in agreement, and then dispersed one after another.

After everyone left, Luo Xiaoyu looked at Xiaohong and said earnestly, "Xiaohong, I did this not only to vent our anger, but also to give an explanation to the Prime Minister. I hope that after this incident, they can change their temper in the future and stop bullying others."

Xiaohong nodded obediently, her eyes full of trust.

"Brother Xiaoyu, I understand. Everything you did was right."

At this moment, the mountain wind is howling outside the window, as if telling us that the storm is subsiding.

Luo Xiaoyu looked into the distance, silently thinking about what to do next. Life still had to go on in Kunlun Mountain, and she only hoped that things would go more smoothly in the future.

The dim morning light shines on the eaves of the Taoist temple in Kunlun Mountain, creating a faint golden glow.

The stone door that had been closed for many days slowly swayed, and the two Taoist priests Qingfeng and Mingyue were about to come out.

All of a sudden, all the disciples put down their work, straightened their clothes, and quickly rushed towards the place of retreat.

At the front of the crowd, Guanglingzi had a slightly uneasy look in his eyes. He raised his hands from time to time to smooth out the wrinkles on his clothes. He prayed silently in his heart that the previous disputes with Luo Xiaoyu and Xiaohong would not escalate into further complications at this time.

Luo Xiaoyu and Xiaohong were also mixed in the crowd. Luo Xiaoyu stood tall with a stern look. His eyes were fixed on the stone door that was about to open, with mixed feelings in his heart.

Xiaohong tightly grasped Luo Xiaoyu's sleeve, her big eyes full of curiosity and anticipation, and she whispered, "Brother Xiaoyu, they will definitely gain a lot from this retreat."

Luo Xiaoyu nodded slightly without saying a word.

The stone door slowly opened, and Taoist priests Qingfeng and Mingyue walked out side by side.

Taoist Qingfeng was dressed in a white robe as white as snow, holding a whisk in his hand. He had a gaunt face and a calm and deep gaze, as if he could see through everything in the world.

Taoist Master Mingyue was dressed in a moon-white robe, with a gentle temperament, a faint smile on his lips, and an aura of tranquility and peace emanating from his whole body.

After greeting each other, all the disciples shouted in unison: "Welcome Master to come out of retreat!" The shouts echoed in the valley for a long time.

Taoist Qingfeng raised his hand slightly, signaling everyone to excuse themselves, his voice as loud as a bell.

"I have gained some experience from this retreat, and I will teach you later."

Taoist Mingyue nodded gently, glanced at everyone, and said softly: "Long time no see, how are you all?"

Among the crowd, Guanglingzi was the first to speak.

"Reporting to Master, everything is fine with us. We just hope that Master can come out and answer our questions." As he said this, he secretly glanced at Luo Xiaoyu, still feeling a little uneasy.

Luo Xiaoyu remained expressionless, but was wondering in her heart whether she should tell her two masters the truth about the bullying she had suffered before.

Just then, a mountain breeze blew by.

Qingfeng and Mingyue walked gracefully into the inner room, turned around and gently called out to Luo Xiaoyu and Xiaohong to follow them. The two looked at each other and quickly followed in.

After the door was closed, the disciples outside gathered into several groups, whispering to each other.

"Do you think Luo Xiaoyu can really swallow this anger and not complain to the master?" a young disciple asked quietly.

Guanglingzi frowned slightly and replied in a low voice: "Since he has agreed, he shouldn't sue. If he really does, we can only bear it. After all, it's our fault."

Inside the room, Qingfeng and Mingyue sat down on the futon one after another, motioning Luo Xiaoyu and Xiaohong to sit down as well.

Taoist Qingfeng looked gentle and asked softly, "Did anything happen in the Taoist temple during these days of seclusion?"

Luo Xiaoyu's heart tightened and she subconsciously clenched the corner of her clothes. She looked up at Xiaohong, and Xiaohong shook her head gently.

Luo Xiaoyu took a deep breath, hesitated for a moment, and then said, "Everything is fine. Xiaohong and I are all well and good thanks to the care of you brothers. Nothing serious has happened to us." (End of this chapter)
