"Master Gu...is there anything else?"
Since Lu Jing noticed Gu Caiwei standing aside, he was too embarrassed to pretend not to notice, so he simply walked over and asked.
As a result, when Gu Caiwei saw Lu Jing holding an ax approaching her step by step, she suddenly became nervous again. Especially after using the excuse of making steamed buns, she no longer knew how she could delay it.
So when faced with Lu Jing's question, she didn't know how to answer it.
As a result, it was the young man opposite who had a look of surprise on his face first.
Lu Jing remembered the warning that the man surnamed Bai gave him before, especially the way the man surnamed Bai did not dare to say anything for fear of being overheard by others, indicating that there was probably an informant planted by Song Zhongwen in the charcoal kiln.
Gu Caiwei probably knew this, and was worried that if she just left like this, Song Zhongwen would see that the two of them didn't actually have a deep relationship, and that she was just pretending to be powerful.
In this way, she will fall into Song Zhongwen's hands soon.
Lu Jing felt that he had roughly figured out the reason why Gu Caiwei still stayed in the charcoal kiln.
It is said that one should help people to the end and send Buddha to the West. Since he had helped Gu Caiwei scare Song Zhongwen away before, he simply helped the pretty widow again.
Lu Jing stretched out the hand that was not holding the axe.
On the surface, the workers in the charcoal kiln were still doing their own thing, but in fact they couldn't help but focus on the two of them after noticing Lu Jing walking towards Gu Caiwei.
After taking the burlap cloth, Gu Caiwei's skin was aroused with goosebumps.
She instinctively wanted to run away, but when she saw the ax in Lu Jing's hand and her legs were weak, she couldn't move forward at all. She could only watch helplessly as the claw fell on her...
Well, on the head?
Lu Jing patted Gu Caiwei on the head, just like he did with his friend's husky, he patted it twice, and then said, "Okay, it's okay, go home quickly."
This was the best way Lu Jingneng could come up with to "confirm" in front of the mole that there was indeed some relationship between him and Gu Caiwei without offending Gu Caiwei too much.
This touch of the head will not only protect Gu Caiwei for a lifetime, but it should at least make Song Zhongwen suspicious for half a year. As for half a year later, Gu Caiwei should be able to come up with new methods or find new backers to solve her crisis.
From the letter this woman wrote to her distant cousin early in the morning, it can be seen that she is not stupid and has a clear understanding of her own situation. She is just a little unlucky when her distant cousin gets into trouble.
Otherwise, now that there is a new man from an official family protecting her, Song Zhongwen would not dare to get entangled with her again.
After Lu Jing rubbed his head, he didn't think much about it. He just got over it and went away, hiding his merit and fame, and went to find Ma Zhongbao to settle today's wages for him.
But he didn't realize that Gu Caiwei, who had been beaten to death, just stood there.
The goosebumps on her skin had gradually faded away, along with the fear in her heart and the haze that had been hanging over her head.
Gu Caiwei didn't understand why a simple action had such a magical effect.
It was like pulling her back from hell to the human world.
She once again felt the sunlight above her head, the warmth traveling on her skin, and smelled the faint floral fragrance floating in the air. Even the crackling sound of the wood burning in the flames seemed to become pleasant to her ears.
The most important thing is that when Gu Caiwei looked at that figure again, she no longer felt scared. Even though the other person was still the devil who lit people's sky lanterns in anger, but being by this devil's side made Gu Caiwei feel... Long lost... peace of mind.
During this period, she lived on tenterhooks every day. The men around her either directly hinted threats or made false inquiries, but the purpose behind them was the same, which was to wait for her to relax. She devoured everyone and her family property in one gulp.
Only the young man in front of her clearly had the ability to swallow her up from the beginning, but he was willing to treat her tenderly.
It turns out that not all men are the same.
Gu Caiwei's dead heart, which had been hurt by the evil in the world, has revived again.
…………
If Lu Jing could know what was going on in Gu Caiwei's head right now, his expression would probably become very weird, and then he would smile bitterly and say to Gu Caiwei, "Girl, you have a typical case of Stockholm Syndrome."
The specific clinical manifestation is that when the victim and the perpetrator are in a very unequal position and the victim is completely dominated, as long as the perpetrator casually gives them a small benefit, their fear will first be transformed into gratitude. Then it turns into a kind of worship, and eventually one is grateful to the perpetrator, even to the point of being completely devoted.
Lu Jing had seen similar things in the workplace in his previous life, usually between women who had just graduated from college and their bosses.
This also made Lu Jing a little confused. What is real love, or is love just some kind of psychological hallucination that happens by chance at special times?
I'm going too far. In short, Lu Jing can't get into Gu Caiwei's head now. He doesn't even know about the fact that he accidentally became a devil in the eyes of everyone.
Naturally, there is nothing to stop Gu Caiwei from going further and further down the road of Stockholm Syndrome.
After receiving today's wages, Lu Jing hurriedly left the charcoal kiln.
He first went to the field to find Amu, and then ran to the Bodhisattva temple with one person and one wooden stake to continue practicing the Crazy One Hundred and Eight Rods.
After practicing until the sun went down, Lu Jing mastered ten more moves. At the same time, the speed of internal energy flow in the body and the internal energy that can be mobilized with each move have been improved to a certain extent.
Lu Jing can feel that he is growing rapidly. You must know that less than twenty days have passed since he first gained internal power. As for the time to obtain martial arts moves, it was even shorter. It only took less than three days for him to practice to this level. , is inseparable from Amu’s personal guidance.
But Lu Jing still couldn't be happy. Feeling the sense of urgency, he opened the book Light Body Techniques of Turbulent Waves under the moonlight, and started reading with Amu.
In the end, after a lot of troubles, Lu Jing consumed about one-third of the internal energy in his Dantian before flushing the acupuncture points, which was basically the same as yesterday. However, considering that Yin Qing's kind assist this morning, Lu Jing's practice consumed more. In fact, internal force cannot cover the extra increase in internal force the next day due to acupuncture the day before.
There are still sixteen of the twenty-eight acupoints on the Governor Vein. Even if it becomes more and more difficult to penetrate later, it is conservatively estimated that Lu Jing only has about thirteen or four days left.
