Chapter Forty-Eight: The Rootless Hibiscus

After two rounds of practice, Chihiro began to disturb them, first knocking down a honeycomb on a nearby tree and throwing it at them, and countless bees buzzed towards the disciples with poisonous needles. If any of the disciples shook their bodies to dodge, Chihiro would slap him on the back with a nine-inch-six-minute long ebony ruler. If you don't hide, you will be stung with red bumps, which is really miserable.

Disciples with high spiritual cultivation such as Xiahou Yi and Zhiyun will use spiritual power to protect their bodies from poisonous bees.

After the poisonous bees dispersed, Qianguang released the bamboo poles hanging on both sides, the ends of those bamboo poles were sharpened, like a knife blade that could poke people through the intestines and stomach, and the bamboo poles stabbed at the disciples, this time the disciples could dodge, but they had to continue to punch while dodging, if anyone forgot to punch because of dodging, Qianguang would shoot a stone and shoot him down.

Su Ning watched and suffered for them, she secretly thought, such a hard practice, if she also participated in it, I don't know if she can survive it.

Qian Yi watched with her silently, and the disciples below were exhausted from practice, and Qian Guang and Qian Hui led them back to the city.

Qian Yi then returned to the Liuli Palace with Su Ning, Su Ning kept recalling the boxing routines she had just seen, and she thought that when she waited until the evening, she would have to learn these boxing techniques by herself.

As if he could see through her mind, Qian Yi asked, "Do you want to learn that set of Tai Chi techniques?"

Su Ning's face was red and hot when he asked him, and she always felt that she couldn't hide anything from him. She honestly admitted: "Yes...... Childe, I want to learn ......"

Qian Yi threw out a sentence: "After dinner, come to me with a set of clothes for practice." ”

Su Ning didn't have time to answer, he had already walked away. Su Ning stood in the distance and thought about it, and finally came back to her senses.

Could it be that Qianyi wants to teach her boxing? Su Ning was pleasantly surprised.

In the evening, Su Ning Yiyan put on her white robe, combed her hair in a bun, and installed it with boxwood hairpins, and she came to Cuilin Garden.

The moonlight narcissus in the pool emitted a faint blue light and fragrance in the night, Su Ning stood in the courtyard, not knowing where to look for Qianyi, and there was a sound overhead:

"Come up. ”

Su Ning raised his head, Qian Yi stood on the stargazing platform on the third floor, under the clear light of the moon, he was dressed in a flowing white robe, his clothes were fluttering, and he stood against the wind.

Su Ning leaped up with the Dancing Sky Technique. Qian Yi pointed to a few weight-bearing sandbags at his feet and said:

"Tied to your hands and feet. ”

Su Ning obediently tied sandbags to her calves and arms, and the sandbags weighed a total of thirty pounds, which was almost equivalent to carrying a five-year-old child on her back.

This weight Su Ning can still bear, and Qian Yi also knows that she has a lot of strength, so he stretched out his finger and gently applied a spell. The sandbag on Su Ning's body suddenly doubled, she was not comfortable for a while, and she almost didn't stand firm.

Su Ning hurriedly stabilized her footsteps, Qian Yi stood in front of her, her feet were firmly on the horse, and she started Tai Chi by herself. Su Ning immediately followed his movements to practice, but saw that his body was like a mast, his feet were like a boat, and his expansion and contraction were like a whip. Waving his palm is like a fish playing in the water, and his shot is like throwing a hammer with ashes. Cunning over a meteor, brave as a leopard.

Qianyi's boxing is more skillful than Qianhui's, combining rigidity and softness, and combining virtual and real. Su Ning followed him like a shadow, following his steps, palms, hooks, balls, cloud hands, and kicks. But after all, she was carrying a lot of weight, and after practicing a few times, she gradually became a little overwhelmed.

At the moment when her movements were sluggish, Su Ning's back suddenly received a heavy blow—pop!

I don't know who hit her behind the back, Su Ning was shocked, she didn't dare to turn around to look, so she had to continue to follow Qian Yi to practice boxing.

The monotonous and tedious movements were repeated, and a thin layer of sweat appeared on Su Ning's forehead and back, and he only felt that the sandbags on his hands and feet were getting heavier and heavier, and he could barely lift them.

Su Ning thought of the scene of seeing his fellow disciples cultivating during the day, compared to the hardships they had suffered, she was really nothing at the moment. She gritted her teeth, but her movements inevitably became sluggish.

At this time, she was hit on the back again, this time Su Ning happened to change direction with Fang Cai, and she finally saw "who" was beating her - Qianyi's shadow stretched long under the moonlight, but his shadow did not follow him to move, but stood behind Su Ning with a ring ruler, only if Ling Ning's movements couldn't keep up, the shadow would whip her.

This is the "shadow clone technique", which separates one's own shadow into entities, which can both confuse enemies and perform tasks that entities cannot perform.

Don't look at Qianyi's indifference on weekdays. In essence, he is a very stern and old-fashioned person, and that represents the shadow clone of his consciousness, he is ruthless when he beats Su Ning, and he is ruthless.

Su Ning didn't dare to complain, she thought that she was fortunate to be able to get Qianyi's personal guidance, and now Qianyi was very polite to her, compared to Qianguang's poisonous bees and bamboo's tricks.

Su Ning then took a few more rulers because of her slow movements, and practiced until it was close to midnight, and Qian Yi let her go back. After Su Ning removed the sandbag, she was so tired that her hands and feet trembled, her delicate face was red, and her clothes were soaked with sweat.

Qian Yi was still a little distressed when he saw it in his eyes, but the so-called strict master made a high apprentice, all this was to hone her, and he would not be soft because he pitied her.

Su Ning said goodbye to Qianyi, returned to the room and simply freshened up, and fell asleep. Because of her strong bones, she didn't have backache or soft muscles and bones when she woke up the next day, and she still went to work energetically.

So, from this day on, Su Ning was Qianyi's maid during the day, serving him to eat and dress, and at night he was his apprentice, following him to practice martial arts.

After Su Ning practiced boxing, Qianyi taught her to use "single sword" and "double gong", and increased the weight of the sandbag, and later in addition to her hands and feet, even the waist had to tie a ten-pound sandbag. Sometimes he would take Su Ning to practice outside the city at night, and he would take her to some places with harsh environments, such as deep pools nailed to wooden stakes, or thorny forests, as well as caves with stalactites hanging on the roof, and the turbulent waterfall before, all of which were places for Su Ning's cultivation.

The wind knows the strength of the grass, Su Ning is diligent and studious, hard worked, no matter how hard the cultivation is, he gritted his teeth and survived. But after all, she is not an iron body, and she will still be injured from time to time, she is indomitable, she does not take these small injuries to heart at all, and reciting a "return mantra" to heal the wound.

The black flying rabbit walked, the white horse passed through the gap, and three years passed in a blink of an eye. Qian Fan had been out for more than five years, and he used the "Sound Transmission Stone" to tell Su Ning that he had arrived in the Demon Realm and would be able to come back in about two years.

Su Ning was very happy for him, she inadvertently mentioned to Qianyi that Qianfan was about to come back, and the other party just responded indifferently with an "oh". Su Ning later thought to herself that she was afraid that she was doing this too much, Qianyi and Qianfan were brothers, and Qianyi must know each other's whereabouts.

She didn't know that Qian Yi was because she thought that once Qian Fan came back, she would propose to change Su Ning to the Jade Palace, and he was unhappy about it. Unconsciously, he had regarded Su Ning as his private property.

A night of light thunder and ten thousand silks, the glow of the floating tile is uneven. The smoke and rain are misty, the mountains are empty, the apricot blossoms are scattered, and the grass is moist like crisp.

Qiongke City ushered in a short rainy season, Qiongke City is bright spring most of the time, but I am afraid that for the growth of all things, there will be a rainy season for half a month in a year, and occasionally there will be a little snow, but the probability of occurrence is very low, Su Ning has been here for almost seventy years, and has only encountered five snowy days.

Early in the morning, Su Ning practiced martial arts until late at night yesterday, and returned to the room to meditate and refine qi, so she got up a little later than usual. After she freshened up and changed her clothes, she picked up a silk oil umbrella, faced the rustling rain, and hurried to Cuilin Garden with her skirt.

She put away the umbrella and returned to the house, and Shan'er, who was sweeping the house on the first floor, told her: "Ning'er, Childe asked you to find him in the backyard." ”

Su Ning didn't know that Qianyi would get up so early, and after thanking Shan'er, she walked quickly to the backyard.

On the edge of the pond in the backyard, Qianyi was standing with an umbrella aside, while Qiu'er was standing under the dripping eaves in front of the house to guard him. Seeing Su Ning coming, Qiu'er threw a cold glance at her.

Qian Yi over there also saw Su Ning, he beckoned to her, and Su Ning walked over with an umbrella.

Qiu'er saw that Qianyi asked Su Ning to put away the umbrella and hold an umbrella with him, and the two were still talking next to each other affectionately, her silver teeth were bitten, and her eyes kept flashing with jealousy.

Qian Yi pointed to the rootless snow hibiscus on the surface of the pool and asked Su Ning: "Look at this snow hibiscus, has it become a lot bigger?"

Su gazed at the snow hiflages floating on the ripples in a circle, the petals were even more lustrous and clear under the rain, as if they were carved from the finest crystal. The flower pot was really bigger than before, and she bowed her head: "Yes, it wasn't that big yesterday ......"

Qianyi said: "It was foggy a few nights ago, and when I came out to check, I also found that the snow hives had become larger, but after the fog cleared, they shrank a little. ”

Su Ning asked curiously, "Why is this......?"

Qian Yi said again: "I plan to bring one of them back to the house to see if it will change." ”

Su Ning made it clear at a moment's notice, and then said, "Okay, disciple, I'll take the glass jar." After she finished speaking, she was shocked and lost her words, and hurriedly changed her words:

"Slave and maid, take it ......"

Su Ning now calls herself a "disciple" when she cultivates with Qianyi, and she is a "slave" during the day, sometimes she herself is confused, and she can't change it if she is not careful.

Qian Yi didn't care about this, just said, "No need." ”

He said to Qiu'er under the eaves: "Qiu'er, take the blue and white porcelain painting jar in the study." ”

"Yes, Childe. Qiu'er was blessed and went to the study on the second floor.

Qian Yi and Su Ning stood by the pool, Su Ning didn't dare to get too close to him, and quietly opened a distance of half a palm width from him, so that half of his shoulders were exposed in the rain. Qian Yi noticed it, and he quietly moved the umbrella to her, this time it was his turn to get wet on the shoulder.
