Hot and seductive

Chapter 154 Chapter 154
Ling Luo hesitated for a moment, but still went down Mr. Huo's vine.

She didn't dare to look down the whole time.

Her hands were also trembling, and it was those skills from climbing trees to dig out bird nests that allowed her to hold on and not fall.

As everyone knows, this is Mr. Huo's first test for her.

If she shrinks back, she will never be a true inner disciple of the Huo family.

Obviously, she has passed Mr. Huo's level now.

Soon, she landed on a bulge on the cliff, and the valley breeze was gentle, carrying the breath of waves, and she subconsciously gathered her coat.

She not only felt a little cold, but also a little nervous.

The pain from grabbing the vine just now spread in the palm of his hand, making Ling Luo, who was already sensitive to pain, frown.

Mr. Huo glanced at her as if nothing had happened, threw a bottle of medicine to her, and then walked into the cave.

There was a burst of fragrance.

While applying the wound medicine, Ling Luo said, "It smells so good."

She thought it was the scent of wound medicine.

In fact, it is not, the more you go into the cave, the more fragrant it will be.

The passage in the cave became narrower and narrower, Ling Luo couldn't help frowning: "Master, where are we going?"

Mr. Huo remained silent for a rare time, with a serious expression on his face.

Seeing that the atmosphere was not right, Ling Luo took the initiative to find a topic: "Master, did you not expect me to come down just now?"

There is a cliff below, who would dare to jump down by grabbing vines with a bad old man?
Ke Lingluo didn't hesitate.

She knew that this was just a test, and if she unfortunately fell, the master must have a way to save her.

This idea may be a little naive, but Ling Luo really thought so at the time. Mr. Huo has always been kind and compassionate, and he will not joke about the life of his apprentice.

He did this only to dissuade her.

She didn't know why Mr. Huo didn't want her to be an inner disciple, but she made a decision and would not give up easily.

All she knew was that she wanted to learn Huo's medical skills.

She wants to make Chinese patent medicine and promote it to the world.

Mr. Huo walked steadily into the depths of the cave, and said with disgust: "Still proud?"

Ling Luo: Tsundere little old man.

However, Master's arrogance did not affect her mood at all.

She looked like Grandma Liu who had just entered the Grand View Garden, curiously looking at the situation inside the cave.

Mr. Huo took out a flashlight from nowhere to illuminate the world. Ling Luo looked at the cave that had been destroyed by time, and it was not difficult to see that this was not a natural cave, but was formed artificially.

"Could this be a cave dug by members of the Huo clan?" Ling Luo clicked his tongue.

Mr. Huo answered: "Well, it took almost 70 years to dig out this passage."

70 years!
Ling Luo opened his mouth, not knowing what to say for a moment.

She couldn't imagine how the ancients dug a passage, and why they opened a passage on a cliff.

When only one person could pass through the narrow passage, Ling Luo frowned slightly.

What is Mr. Huo taking her for?Could it be that the Huo family's ancient house is in the tomb?
It's no wonder she thought so, such a passage environment reminded her of the tomb robbery plot in a certain book.

After walking for a while, the eyes suddenly opened up.

What catches the eye is a field ridge, and there is a peach blossom forest above the field ridge. The fragrance of flowers just now should have come from there.

There are several thatched huts in the middle of the jungle. It is meal time, and long smoke is rising from the chimneys, hanging straight into the sky.

This is the Huo family's ancient house?
It seemed to be different from what she imagined.

This is more like the peach blossom forest in the book.

Ling Luo looked back, the passage just now disappeared? !
Have you started metaphysics?
Mr. Huo said calmly: "The entrance here is the gossip organ array, and there are many entrances. If one passage is exposed, another passage will be switched immediately."

Ling Luo was speechless: You can never imagine the wisdom of the ancients.

The two came to one of the yards.

Pushing open the door, Ling Luo discovered that it was a medical research laboratory, which contained all kinds of modern experimental equipment, and there were also various bottles and jars on it, none of which were labeled.

At this time, the middle-aged man who heard the voice came over. He was fair-skinned and dressed in mended clothes. The skin on his face was not aging yet, but his white hair was dazzling.

"Master." The man said.

He took off his gloves and greeted Master.

Ling Luo stared at the man intently, not daring to recognize him for a moment.

"Little Junior Sister, long time no see." When the man laughed, his dimples sank.

Ling Luo slowed down, looked at the man, and said in surprise, "Brother."

The man smiled and said: "It seems that we haven't seen each other for a long time, and my junior sister almost doesn't know me anymore."

Ling Luo smiled foolishly, and asked what happened to his hair.

The man smiled without saying a word, looked in Master's direction, and whispered: "Master, the old man finally nodded?"

The man refers to Mr. Huo accepting her as an inner disciple.

Ling Luo smiled and nodded, seeing Mr. Huo standing in front of the experimental equipment, she was stunned for a moment.

She thought of what Uncle Wu said last time, Master's decades of research, which was spent on sleep and food, was in vain in the end.

This feeling, coupled with the crooked figure of the old man in his sixtieth year, was somewhat desolate.

Ling Luo's eyes moved slightly, and he said in a soft tone: "Master is doing experiments here every time he retreats?"

When the big brother Huo Zilong talked about this matter, his expression became serious, full of helplessness.

"Master has done many experiments over the years, but the results are not very satisfactory." Huo Zilong's tone was not relaxed.

"Why didn't Master think of going to a professional laboratory?" Ling Luo muttered, his heart full of pity for Master's talent.

She looked around the laboratory and was shocked by the harsh environment here: "It takes a lot of perseverance to persist for decades."

Mr. Huo knew that she disliked the conditions here, so he said coldly: "You still have a chance to regret it now."

"..." Ling Luo was caught off guard: "Master, you don't seem to want me to stay?"

Mr. Huo looked back at her, and with just one glance, he withdrew his gaze: "You have many ways to go, and Chi's money can make you worry-free for the rest of your life. Why do you have to go this way?"

"Because I want to carry forward Zhongcheng like Master." Ling Luo said word by word.

She won't back down.

Mr. Huo smiled bitterly: "It's useless, it's all futile."

His eyes lost the stars that he had when he was curing diseases and saving lives, as if one failed experiment after another had worn away all his longing and passion, so that all those he persuaded came back.

Ling Luo's eyes were firm: "I will definitely do it."

Even if it takes her whole life, she will persevere to the end.

Huo Zilong said: "Master, haven't you always been optimistic about Junior Sister?"

He didn't understand why Master tried so hard to stop Junior Sister.

Mr. Huo sighed and left the laboratory with his hands behind his back.
