Liu Yourong reached out and touched her head, "I did promise to accept you as an apprentice, but if you really want to apprentice, how can you call me a master?" ”

Liu Xiaohua said worriedly: "Then what else do I have to do?" ”

"You have to go to the Sanqing Hall and bow to me before you can count."

Liu Xiaohua was faintly uneasy: "Where is the Sanqing Palace?" ”

"Now it's in the southwest of Binzhou, on Mount Huibong." Liu Yourong looked at her and said, "I used to live in a more remote place, and your senior brothers and sisters all climbed to the top of the mountain step by step and worshiped the master. ”

"Is that place far away?"

"Not close."

"Then can I go with Master?"

Liu Yourong shook his head: "You have to go by yourself." ”

Liu Xiaohua hurriedly said: "However, I don't want to be separated from Master!" With a nervous and eager look, he stretched out his little hand and grabbed Liu Youkong's long sleeves tightly, "If Master is not by my side, aren't you afraid that I will run away?" When the time comes, where will you find me? ”

Liu Yourong couldn't help but take a look.

Liu Xiaohua was stunned, knowing that he was afraid that there was a way to find himself easily, and said hurriedly: "Then, isn't the master afraid that I will be killed?" ”

Liu Yourong half-squatted in front of her, looked at her and said, "Every qiē in the world is fate." Before setting off to apprentice, respect all things in heaven and earth, and inform the floating beings of your ambition, this is for 'Mingzhi'. If you have that fate, you can naturally be blessed by the heavens and enter the Sanqing Palace peacefully, if you can't go, you don't have that luck and blessing. ”

"Master......" Liu Xiaohua begged: "Master, can't you make an exception once?" Please, Master. Master is the best Master in the world. "She has already experienced life and death just by walking from the mountains to Tiancheng. From here to the so-called southwest of Binzhou, you don't have to think that it will inevitably be endless ups and downs. She didn't know if she could walk. If you can save it by just pulling down your face and asking for it, why not do it.

"No, I can't. To apprentice, you need to first make a clear will to the common people, which is the rule set by the ancestors. Although Liu Yourong was a little unbearable, he still said with a serious expression: "Since the ancestor has set such a rule, it naturally has its deep meaning. Everything conforms to the mandate of heaven and cannot be forced, and it is the right way in the world. If you want to start cultivating, you must not be cowardly, you must not be afraid of evil, and you must not be greedy for shortcuts. Do you understand? ”

Liu Xiaohua stopped begging, pursed her mouth vigorously, looked up at him slightly, her eyes were full of water, and she clearly looked like she was about to cry. But strong, brave and strong, "Okay then." Master. I know. ”

She looked at Liu Yourong with a blank face, reluctantly squeezed out a smile on her little face that was more ugly than crying, and said aggrievedly: "I have listened to Master all my life. "I'm afraid that I will provoke him to look abandoned. Although the words are coarse, they are rare sincerity.

That gesture was really poignant. Liu Yourong was a little unbearable. comforted her and said, "Being a teacher is for your good." If it is not favored by the heavens, even if it is a peerless talent, it will be a rare good death in the future. ”

As he spoke, he wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes with a handkerchief and said, "Look at your dirty face." It's the same as a flower cat. ”

Liu Xiaohua was embarrassed to reach out and wipe a few handfuls on her face, but it was okay not to wipe it, the more she wiped it, the dirtier it became. The corners of Liu Yourong's mouth turned up slightly, and his eyes also had a smile, "Don't move." He took out a small gourd from his sleeves and carefully helped Liu Xiaohua wash her hands first.

Liu Xiaohua obediently stretched out her hand and looked at the man in front of her who was seriously washing her hands.

A few strands of green silk hung down from the side of his face, swaying slightly as he moved, his fingers slender and his bones slightly larger but not rude.

Liu Xiaohua was so close to him that he could even see a small light brown freckle in the corner of his eye. She felt as if her heart was about to jump out of her chest, and she desperately held her breath, lest he notice her shyness and excitement.

She forced herself to remember that she was just a little girl from a mountain village who didn't know anything about the world. In front of this fairy-like master, don't be too smart, can't be too witty, and don't let this only reliance feel that her mind is too heavy. Anything that doesn't match her identity, she can't do it. Anything that an innocent and poor little girl shouldn't say, she can't say a word.

Because Liu Yourong is such a soft-hearted and gentle person. Around such a person, only by knowing how to show weakness and knowing how to be coquettish can he get more pity.

She likes Liu Yourong so gently to treat herself so much, she is greedy for the long-lost care and compassion she gets from him, and she doesn't want this fairy-like character to think that she hates her deeply.

Liu Xiaohua quickly lowered her eyes to hide her feelings. is happy, but also weak-hearted, for fear that he will see through himself.

"The children of each clan have always entered the clan first and then chose to apprentice, and it is also because of Mingzhi. Your Holiness is a long way away and full of dangers. If you don't have some skills, you can't get there. Liu Yourong didn't know the churning thoughts in her heart, washed her hands, wiped her cheeks with a handkerchief dipped in water, and continued to say, "I used to live in the Dragon's Mountain, and it was really difficult to go to the blue sky to get in. But now I live in Binzhou, and although you haven't been in the clan school, it's not difficult to get there. ”

Seeing that Liu Xiaohua was obviously uneasy, but she didn't want to disappoint him and didn't dare to intercede for herself, Liu Yourong was a little hesitant.

After all, the little girl in front of him is still young. It's just that he just came out of the mountains and doesn't understand anything. I'm afraid that she can't even figure out the southeast and northwest, and it is too strict to ask her to walk so far by herself all of a sudden.

"Master, every senior brother and sister walks on their own?" Liu Xiaohua muttered.

Liu Yourong seemed to be stopped by her question, and was stunned for a moment before saying, "It's not ...... But later, I regretted it very ......much for the teacher, "Saying that, his eyes changed slightly, and he finally made up his mind, "I am waiting for you in the Sanqing Hall for the teacher." ”

He stood up as he spoke. Put the handkerchief back into your sleeve.

Liu Xiaohua hurriedly said, "Master, dirty!" Fearing that the handkerchief would stain his snow-white robe, he pulled the handkerchief out of his hand, "I'll help Master wash it." When the time comes, I will go to the Sanqing Hall and return it to the master. ”

Liu Yourong nodded generously, "You remember." As long as the heart is right, it will be blessed by the heavens. After saying that, he turned around and stood on the edge of the steps, took something out of his sleeve and blew it, and saw the Chinese light flashing in the sky, and there was a colorful light in the distance rushing towards this side.

Liu Xiaohua watched Liu Yourong's back go away leisurely in the colorful divine light. It wasn't until there was no longer a trace of colored light in the sky that she withdrew her gaze and unfolded the handkerchief in her hand to look at it.

The original plain white veil was stained with blood and mud.

She quickly sniffed it, and there was still the smell of Master on it. Thinking back to Liu Yourong helping her wash her hands and wipe her face, she couldn't help but snicker. Carefully place the handkerchief close to your body.

"You can only be regarded as his disciple when you arrive at the Sanqing Palace, don't be too happy." A voice came from behind her, "Whether you can survive until that time, not sure." ”

Liu Xiaohua turned around, and it turned out to be Liu Ziling.

Liu Ziling looked angry, stared at Liu Xiaohua angrily and sneered, "I really don't know what the fourth uncle likes about you!" Or just look at your pathetic. She doesn't take Liu Xiaohua in her eyes, presumably the wild girl who came out of the mountains in her heart has no knowledge and no ability. walked to Liu Xiaohua's side, looked up and down, and said with a smile: "You look good." Even if you can't enter the Tianqing Hall of the fourth uncle, as long as you have good qualifications, it is not difficult to find another way out. I don't know if you know, there is a thing called Luding? ”

Liu Xiaohua didn't speak, nor did she look at her, turned around and stood by the steps, looking at the sea of clouds under her feet.

Liu Ziling also stood over, turned his head to look at Liu Xiaohua and said, "The so-called furnace tripod is the person who is used to pretend to be cultivated as aura in the double cultivation technique. In order to improve their cultivation, there are often masters who raise a few good-looking women, teach them to practice magic, and wait for them to grow up, and then they will be included in the bed. ”

Liu Xiaohua glanced at it. There was no one here except two people. "What about the others?"

Liu Ziling thought she was scared and wanted to find someone for help, and even contemptuous, "My father ordered them to do their homework." Don't count on it, at this time, it's the time to do your homework in the family studies, and no one will come. Besides, I'm just talking to you, what are you afraid of? ”

Liu Xiaohua turned back silently and continued to stand there without speaking.

Liu Zilingjiao smiled: "You ......"

As soon as he said a word, he felt that he had tripped under his feet. The whole person lost his balance, and he threw himself down the steps, and he was about to fall into the sea of clouds. I couldn't help but scream loudly, but fortunately, when I fell, I caught a protruding stone corner, but unfortunately only one hand could borrow strength, and the other hand couldn't climb up no matter how hard I struggled.

Liu Ziling's triumphant face was full of fear, and he wanted to take the magic weapon out, but he couldn't reach the purse on his waist. Looking at the sea of clouds tumbling below, I forgot to ask for help, and only screamed blindly. After a while, he would say a word: "Quick, pull me up, what are you doing standing there stupidly!" ”

Liu Xiaohua was puzzled: "Aren't you cultivated?" Can't fly up? ”

"I, I can't cultivate enough!" Liu Ziling was so angry that he screamed, "If you pull me up, you can pull it quickly, where is so much nonsense!" ”

But the poor little girl who was in front of Liu Yourong before didn't move, just stood on the edge of the steps and looked down at her coldly, "It turns out that you can't fly." I'm worried you'll be able to fly. He said with a look of surprise.

"You! You! Liu Ziling was shocked.

You, you, you, you
