Chapter 142: Cold Cave.
Bai Sheng frowned slightly, "What can Junior Sister do to help Master?"
"Her blood can help me restore this dying body."
"What?" Bai Sheng's pupils suddenly tightened and he looked at Bai Fan in surprise.
"Ahem..." Bai Fan covered his mouth and coughed for a while before looking at Bai Sheng and continuing, "Master told you this because I wanted you not to ruin Master's plan, otherwise you will never see her again."
Bai Fan said this calmly, but to Bai Sheng it was like being struck by lightning. He couldn't calm down for a long time. Was his master... warning him just now?
"You have done very well this time. In ten days it will be the night of the full moon. You just need to listen to me carefully. When I am well again, I will personally be the witness of your marriage with Xue'er."
"What does Master want to do?"
"Ahem... You don't need to know so much. Send more people to patrol the mountain in the next few days to prevent anyone from disrupting my plan."
Bai Sheng nodded blankly, and Bai Fan then slowly left with his crutches.
Bai Sheng looked at the snow-white fox fur on the shelf and laughed at himself, "Ha." What was he doing? He had never discovered the master's motives, causing his little sister to suffer such hardships.
Ling'er's eyes flashed with pride, and then she said: "Mr. Bai Sheng..."
"Snapped!"
Before Ling'er could finish her words, she was slapped hard on the face. Bai Sheng looked at Ling'er fiercely and asked, "Is it you?"
Ling'er burst into tears and shook her head aggrievedly, saying, "Sir...it's not me..."
"I brought Xue'er back through the back mountain and did not inform other fellow disciples on Baishan Mountain, including our master, in advance." Bai Sheng said with a cold face.
Ling Er immediately knelt down in panic, "Sir...I was wrong, I didn't mean to...I was forced into it."
"Who would force you?" Bai Sheng said coldly, gritting his teeth.
"I...I..." Ling'er lowered her head and cried, choking with sobs: "Master, you know that I was brought back by the White-robed Immortal. I don't have the talent to be his disciple, so I became a slave."
"Anyone on Baishan can bully me. I am a nobody and my words are not taken seriously. I have been threatened to do things I don't want to do. But this time... I really didn't know that the white-robed fairy would take the young lady away."
Ling'er cried even louder as she spoke.
Bai Sheng said in disgust, "Don't play the victim in front of me anymore. Don't show up in front of me again."
"Young Master!" Ling'er raised her tear-red eyes and looked at Bai Sheng.
However, Bai Sheng's eyes were filled with coldness, without any sympathy at all.
Ling Er grabbed the corner of Bai Sheng's clothes in a panic and said, "Sir, I really know I was wrong."
"Get out of here!" Bai Sheng's voice became louder.
Ling'er shuddered all over, looking at Bai Sheng's resolute face, she became even more madly jealous of Jiang Xue. She clenched her hands and slowly stood up, looked at Bai Sheng with tears in her eyes, and walked out crying.
Bai Sheng angrily closed the door and locked himself in the room. Looking at the cold tea on the table, he pushed it to the ground angrily, supported himself on the table with his hands, and there was regret in his eyes.
"Xue'er, it's my fault. It was my fault that I hurt you." Bai Sheng murmured to himself.
After a long time, as if he had made up his mind, his eyes became firm, and then he strode open the door and walked out.
After Ling'er was driven out by Bai Sheng, she went to Bai Fan's room, and stood upright in front of the table, with a cold look between her brows and a cold and solemn aura emanating from her whole body, completely different from the crybaby look she had just had.
After Bai Fan carefully placed the blood he had just taken from Jiang Xue in the cabinet, he looked at Ling'er who was standing there and said, "You did a great job."
"Master, Bai Sheng already knows all this. Will he do something?" Ling'er asked seriously.
Bai Fan sat at the table with a cane, his eyes dim and his face expressionless. He said calmly, "It's okay. Jiang Xue is in my hands. He won't betray his master."
Ling'er nodded, bent down slightly and said, "Then what should I do next?"
"Continue to stay by Bai Sheng's side and keep an eye on him."
Ling'er frowned and said, "But...he doesn't want to see me anymore."
"Heh..." Bai Fan stood up from the chair, slowly walked to Ling'er and said, "I am a good disciple. How could your master not know what you are thinking? You have liked Bai Sheng since you first came to the mountain, right?"
"I..." Ling'er's eyes moved slightly and her lips opened slightly.
Bai Fan laughed out loud, patted Ling'er's shoulder and said, "Master believes that you will definitely find a way to continue to stay with Bai Sheng."
Ling'er's expression darkened. She did have a way to continue staying with Bai Sheng, but looking at the resolute face of Bai Sheng just now, she felt disheartened. He liked Jiang Xue so much, how could he still see someone else?
"Okay, let's go."
Ling'er nodded slightly and walked out respectfully.
As soon as he went out, the subordinate who took Jiang Xue downstairs came in.
"Master, everything has been settled."
"Yes." Bai Fan nodded, then took out a small porcelain bottle from his arms and handed it to the person in front of him, saying: "From now on, go and get a bottle of blood every day until the full moon night."
"Yes."
The man took the bottle respectfully and walked out.
On top of the White Mountain, there is a cold cave that is used to punish those disciples who have made mistakes. It is extremely cold inside, and many people imprisoned inside have been frozen to death, or they have tried to escape from the cave and triggered the mechanism and were shot to death.
Jiang Xue was thrown inside. It was very dark in the cold cave, with only a faint light shining on the cold cliffs.
The cold wind was howling inside, and Jiang Xue's face was pale. She felt the cold wind blowing on her face like being cut by a knife, stinging and painful.
His cold, pale hands moved slightly, and then he slowly opened his eyes. He wanted to stand up, but fell down again because he had no strength to do so.
"Hiss..." Jiang Xue frowned, and another gust of cold wind blew. Jiang Xue's cold lips shivered, and then her body curled up, her hair was messy, and her lips were frozen white.
Looking at the faint light, Jiang Xue felt as if she had fallen into an endless abyss and couldn't breathe.
The cold wind was still blowing incessantly in her ears. Jiang Xue forced herself to stand up against the cold wind and looked around. There was no place to hide, but her limbs were covered with wounds.
"What the hell is this place?" Jiang Xue muttered to herself.
Then he walked inside, supporting himself with his hands on the wall of the cave, but found that there was nothing inside, just a hole.
Jiang Xue squatted down in a corner discouraged and curled herself up into a ball. The coldness all over her body made it impossible for her to think calmly. She now only hoped that someone would come in and take her away.
Three days later.
At the foot of Baishan Mountain, Pei Zhijin, wearing a black robe, stood at the foot of the mountain with his hands behind his back, staring up. Ye Tong stood behind Pei Zhijin, and said with a slightly worried look in his eyes: "Sir, if you follow this mountain road up, you will reach the halfway point of the mountain. After that... there will be many dangers."
Pei Zhijin said nothing, but walked forward without hesitation.
Ye Tong's eyes moved slightly, and he followed Pei Zhijin forward.
During these three days, Bai Sheng saw the people around Bai Fan taking a bottle of blood to Bai Fan's room every noon. Bai Sheng felt heartbroken and became more anxious.
He looked at his men beside him and asked, "Have you found a way to enter the cold cave?"
"Not yet. The Handong is in a remote location and is on top of the White Mountain. It's difficult to get up there."
Bai Sheng looked at his men coldly, suppressed his temper and said, "I don't care what method you use, I want to know how to get to the cold cave before noon tomorrow."
The subordinate nodded respectfully and said, "Yes, I will find a way to get to the cold cave as soon as possible."
"Young Master, are you in there?" Ling'er's voice rang out outside the door.
Bai Sheng waved to his men, who immediately climbed out of the window.
Bai Sheng then said to the door: "Come in."
The door was slowly pushed open, and Ling'er walked in with cakes and tonic soup in her hands, smiling peacefully, "Sir, you haven't eaten much these past few days, so I made you something appetizing, please eat a little."
Bai Sheng looked at Ling'er as she put the things in her hand on the table while talking, his eyes became deep, remembering that Ling'er was bullied two days ago and almost froze to death in the snow. If Bai Fan hadn't spoken, he would definitely not care about her.
His intuition told him that this Ling'er was not simple and seemed to be staring at him.
"Sir?"
