The chivalrous spirit is fickle

"No, you look smart."

Shen Yue pouted and kept kneading her legs, but she felt that her strength was too weak and it was really uncomfortable. Without thinking too much, she moved her body and leaned her legs directly against Shi Gu and said.

"Give me a massage."

Shi Gu tilted his body and looked at Shen Yue in surprise, but Shen Yue looked righteous, which made Shi Gu feel a little uncomfortable. He frowned, pointed at himself and emphasized.

"Um...I am the master and you are the apprentice."

Hearing this, Shen Yue suddenly realized, clapped her hands, and then continued.

"Master, help me massage it."

"..."

The corners of Shi Gu's eyes twitched, but then he sighed in defeat, and without paying attention to the dirt on the ground, he sat cross-legged, put his hands on Shen Yue's legs, and gently kneaded them.

The big hands moved quickly on Shen Yue's slender legs, passing over several acupoints with moderate force, making Shen Yue's legs feel comfortable quickly.

Shen Yue squinted her eyes and smiled, like a little fox, she gave Shi Gu a thumbs up and praised him.

"Master, you are amazing."

Hearing this, Shi Gu's face became extremely interesting, but at the same time he was also quite troubled. His hands kept moving, but he also spoke softly.

"I'm telling you, although you and I are master and disciple, there are differences between men and women. You should be more careful in the future."

Shen Yue blinked, looking confused and asked with some doubt.

"What should I pay attention to?"

Shi Gu gave a bitter smile, then frowned and spoke seriously.

"If I have improper thoughts about you and you are so careless, won't I take advantage of you?"

"There are many masters in this world who are beasts in human form, and many of them have done such things."

"Besides, do you trust me so much?"

Hearing this, Shen Yue thought seriously for a moment, then asked naively.

"Can't I trust you, Master?"

Shi Gu was speechless for a moment, not knowing how to answer, and could only smile awkwardly.

"You can't really say that. I just want you to be more careful and on guard."

"People's hearts are hidden in their stomachs. It's always better to be careful."

Shen Yue was still confused, and she continued speaking quite seriously.

"But you are my master."

Shi Gu suddenly felt that what he had just said was in vain. He felt powerless and was about to say something else when he heard Shen Yue speak softly.

"Since I was little, there have been only two people who have been kind to me."

"One is my mother, and the other is you, Master."

"Why can't I trust you, Master?"

Shi Gu was startled when he heard this, and turned around to look. The morning sunlight fell on Shen Yue's fair little face, adding a bit of haziness. Shi Gu suddenly felt dazed, then turned his head and said in a low voice.

"In the future, there will definitely be more and more people who treat you well."

"But you still have to separate the true from the false among those people. This cannot be changed."

"Including me, you have to wonder if there is some purpose behind it that makes me treat you so well."

"understood."

Shen Yue nodded as if she understood, and said innocently.

"I understand."

"But why can't I trust you, Master?"

Shi Gu was speechless for a while and stopped explaining. Shen Yue's little head was harder than a rock. At this time, Shen Yue added in a low voice.

"I believe in you, Master, no matter what your purpose is for me."

Shi Gu shook his head helplessly, but a hint of warmth flashed in his eyes and he sighed.

"Fool."

In the distance, Dan Xiu, dressed in a black dress, leaned against the door, looking at the master and disciple, frowning slightly and muttering softly.

"Why do you sound like two fools?"

After a moment, Shen Yue stood up again and followed Shi Gu to the two boxes in the yard.

Shi Gu first opened one of the boxes, only to find that it was filled with weapons, mostly swords and knives, flashing with cold light, definitely not ordinary items.

"You are already in the first-grade martial realm, but you are on an evil path, and your realm is superficial, so you need to stabilize your realm now."

"Here are some weapons, choose the one you want."

Shen Yue stood in front of the box of weapons, looked left and right, then looked up and asked Shi Gu, but she was absent-minded and rubbed her belly with her hand.

At the same time, Shi Gu made a move with one hand, and a long sword fell behind him. He swung the sword, stepped back, held the sword in one hand, and suddenly moved.

He stepped on the soil and swung his sword, leaving a shallow sword mark on the ground.

"A single-edged sword has only one blade. The blade is thin and light, and it defeats the enemy with speed. The sword's trajectory is changeable, and the murderous aura is light, but it is extremely cool."

After saying that, Shi Gu swung his hand and the sword flew out of his hand like an arrow and pierced the wall in the distance.

Then, Shi Gu summoned a long sword, stomped his foot hard, and slashed forward with the sword with a force of a thousand pounds, stirring up the yellow sand in the yard.

"A single-edged sword can be used with great force, or it can be used as a fast sword, breaking the wind and opening the sky. It has a strong murderous aura and a strong sense of hostility."

"What matters is the word 'behead'."

After saying that, Shi Gu turned to look at Shen Yue and asked.

"Which one do you choose?"

Upon hearing this, Shen Yue rubbed her belly and asked embarrassedly.

"Master, can we choose after we have eaten?"

Chapter 44: Lantern Festival (Part 2)

"Master, can we choose after we have eaten?"

Hearing this, Shi Gu smiled helplessly, put away the long knife in his hand, and stuck it into the ground with his backhand. Then he waved his palm, a gust of wind blew, and an invisible force opened the other box.

The moment the box was opened, a fragrance wafted out, causing Shen Yue to take a deep breath. She looked down and saw that the box was filled with egg-like wild fruits, and the fragrance wafted out from those wild fruits.

"This is prepared for you. Eat as much as you can."

Hearing this, Shen Yue, who was already eager to try, immediately took action. She squatted beside the box with a smile on her face, picked up the strange wild fruit, and began to eat it in big mouthfuls.

Dan Xiu walked over slowly, looked at the strange fruit in the box, raised the corner of his mouth and said in a low voice.

"Ha, you keep complaining to me about being poor, why do you have such a box of Danyun Fruit hidden away?"

"This thing is in high demand in the martial arts world. If you sell it, it will definitely be snatched up and you will become rich overnight."

Shi Gu smiled, his lips moved slightly, but he gritted his teeth and spoke in a low voice with great pain.

"I know, so my heart bleeds."

"This is my life savings, and now this silly girl is going to eat it all up."

Dan Xiu looked disdainful, bumped Shigu's shoulder and said.

"I've already given it to you. Why don't you be more generous?"

Shi Gu wanted to cry but had no tears, and said in a low voice.

"When your coffin book is eaten up, I'll see if you can stand up heroically."

Upon hearing this, Dan Xiu became even more disdainful, curled his lips, and muttered softly.

"Cheapskate."

Shen Yue's appetite was like a bottomless pit. She quickly ate up the entire box of Danyun fruits. Perhaps because they were too delicious, Shen Yue didn't even have a single fruit core left.

But after eating those Danyun fruits, Shen Yue's face and ears turned red, as if she was drunk and dizzy. Shigu asked Danxiu to help Shen Yue into the house.

After a while, Shen Yue fell into a deep sleep, and it was unknown when she would wake up.

Danxiu walked out of the house, leaned against the door, and spoke softly.

"Little Moon has eaten so many Danyun fruits that she may need to sleep for two days. You asked me to take care of her so that she can sleep here for two days."

Shi Gu did not answer Dan Xiu's question. He just put the weapons on the ground back into the box and spoke softly.

"Keep an eye on Shen Yue. I have to go out now and may not be back until the evening."

Dan Xiu raised her eyebrows slightly, not taking it seriously. She folded her hands over her chest and said with a smile.

"Don't call her Shen Yue all the time. It doesn't sound friendly. Why not call her Little Moon like me?"

Shi Gu was stunned when he heard this, then he laughed out loud. He turned to look at Dan Zhu and asked.

"We are so familiar with each other, why don't you use a more intimate name?"

Dan Xiu smiled and whispered like a cunning fox.

"Actually, when you were away, I also gave you a nickname. It sounds very intimate. Do you want to hear it?"

Hearing this, Shi Gu asked curiously.

"What's the name?"

"Baby."

Shi Gu rolled his eyes, sighed helplessly, and then retorted bluntly.

"Silly bird."

After saying that, Shi Gu dodged the stone thrown by Dan Xiu and turned to leave.

……

After a while, Shi Gu followed the crowd and came to the Dengxiang Pavilion. Everyone in the building already recognized Shi Gu, so naturally no one came forward to ask him any questions.

After several days of renovation, the Dengxiang Pavilion has changed its appearance and now looks like a theater.

As soon as Shi Gu stepped into the building, he saw Huang Che running towards him with a panicked look. He stopped in front of Shi Gu, breathing heavily, and spoke nervously.

"Boss, boss..."

"Sun Zheng...Sun Zheng is here."

Shi Gu was not surprised by this. He rather came here today just for Sun Zheng. He put his hand on Huang Che's shoulder and said with a smile.

"Don't be in a hurry, take a breath first and then talk slowly."

After hearing this, Huang Che took a few deep breaths and finally calmed down, but there was still some anxiety on his face.

"Boss, Sun Zheng wants to see you."

"From the look of him, I'm afraid he has bad intentions."

Shi Gu raised his eyebrows, but smiled brightly, pushed the yellow car forward and said.

"It's okay, take me to see him."

"I was just wondering how he was going to come with bad intentions."

Huang Che was slightly startled when he heard this, then he laughed out loud. After responding, he led the way for Shi Gu.

For some reason, when Huang Che saw Shi Gu's nonchalant look, he suddenly felt more confident and no longer panicked.

Shi Gu followed Huang Che all the way up to the third floor, and finally stopped at the room where Shi Gu killed Sun Fu that day. Shi Gu was a little surprised, and Huang Che explained to him.

"Sun Zheng insisted on choosing this room. No matter how much we persuade him, he wouldn't stop. I had no choice but to obey him."

Shi Gu's eyes flashed, and without saying anything more, he raised his hand to signal Huang Che to open the door.

However, Sun Zheng was already sitting in the middle position, which was supposed to belong to the owner Shi Gu.

Seeing this, Shi Gu didn't care. He strode into the house, bowed and said with a smile.
