"What are you doing with me?" Aunt Lan asked while watering the bonsai on the windowsill.

"Senior sister, I just came to see you." The old god said on the ground.

"Hehe, don't call me junior sister, now you have already left Kunlun, joined Penglai, one of the seven mansions, and founded the Innocence Society; And I, too, am no longer from Kunlun, and now I am a cook in Chinatown, usually raising flowers, cooking, and idle. Aunt Lan said with a smile.

He could feel the alienation and coldness in her smile, and sighed: "Everyone has their own pursuits, and they also have the right to pursue their own ideals. Isn't the purpose of cultivation to recognize oneself, to perceive the universe, and to realize the great freedom of the soul? I have no opinion on your choice, and I will not interfere in your life, I have no other purpose to come here today, I just want to talk to you about the past. Alas, back then... Forget it, now they are scattered all over the world, each with its own life! ”

Aunt Lan didn't feel any emotion when she heard it, she just took care of her own business and didn't even answer the conversation.

"I took in two apprentices, they are also in Manhattan, they are two very talented little guys, do you want to get to know them?" Sticks asked again.

A sneering smile appeared at the corner of Aunt Lan's mouth, and she said mockingly: "I found two more cannon fodder!" How many students have you taught on this planet over the years? How many are still alive today? Hehe, the sacrifice necessary for the great cause, I know, how many times have you said these words, don't say it again today. ”

Just now, he wanted to interrupt Aunt Lan's words, but then he didn't know what he thought, so he sighed and waited until Aunt Lan finished speaking before he spoke: "These two are true disciples, and I will teach Kunlun Authentic Sect to practice the Dharma tonight." Moreover, I have never regretted what happened before, and I am ready to sacrifice, the black sky must be cut down and eradicated, and the beast must not be allowed to descend into the world! ”

After hearing Stick's words, Aunt Lan no longer had any interest in talking, and said directly: "You go, don't come to me again in the future!" ”

"Well, now that I'm doing well, I'm relieved, I'll go."

With that, he got up and walked away with his cane.

"Guarding the world? Ridiculous, does the world need your protection? Even at the expense of his own brothers' lives? Aunt Lan looked at the sticks in the distance and muttered to herself.

After that, Maya and Matthew no longer went to the streets to do chivalrous deeds, but followed Master Sticksuo to learn all kinds of metaphysical knowledge, which were all for the future cultivation of Qi, laying a solid foundation.

Just as the stick said, the practice of qi is not something that can be summarized by a few simple meditations, it is itself like mathematics, physics, and chemistry, it is a profound science, and it is a perceptual description of the infinite universe from two different directions from science. It's like a blind man touching an elephant, all blind people are not wrong, but the elephant is too big, and their understanding is too one-sided.

Maya understands this and readily accepts it. Even when Doctor Strange came to Kama Taj, he started from scratch. It was because he soaked in the ancient library every day and studied hard that he was able to achieve something in the end.

Although Andrew's incident was very sensational, after all, he was about to graduate, and everyone was busy reviewing their homework and trying to pass the exam in one attempt. As a result, after a few days, even Andrew himself stopped paying attention to his little brother.

As for Liz, well, still haven't gone back to school. Maya had visited her a few times, and now Liz stayed at home every day, and she didn't even go out the door. Her abilities were so strange that, according to her mother, Mrs. Black, Liz had bitten off 30 spoons, all of them steel. I often eat well, and I bite off half of the spoon with a "click". Not to mention the clothes, Liz wears a cut-out short-sleeved T-shirt every day, but fortunately now that it's early summer, the weather is getting hotter, and the clothes are no longer so complicated and heavy.

The only good news is that her parents are no longer afraid of her, after all, as long as she doesn't make contact, it is very difficult for Liz to hurt people, and if it weren't for the inevitable bumps in school, she could even go back to school. To put it bluntly, Liz is now like she has a social disorder.

In order to appease Liz and let her honestly control the family, Maya had to go to her house every once in a while to chat with her or something, and the relationship between the two was much better.

Originally, Maya also called Andrew, maybe that experience was too terrible, Andrew now has a psychological shadow on the name Liz, for Maya's invitation, he was reluctant to agree, at most hung up a few calls to Liz.

It was fast forward to the weekend, May 1, and Lucius' invitation followed.

"Maya, are you wearing this? Otherwise, let's buy a new one! Jennifer said.

Maya looked down at her pale yellow sleeveless dress, which was a little whitish in wash, but it fit cleanly, and the plain color complemented her slender body. Now that the weather is hot, Maya no longer wears her hair loosely, and tonight she also wears a thick braid, and the whole person looks like a sunny little beauty.

"No, Mom, doesn't Lucius know what's going on in our family? Besides, Lucius is indeed prosperous now, but what about his poor relatives? You can rest assured, I can assure you that our family is not the worst to wear on the body. ”

Jennifer pursed her lips when she heard this, and said, "Maya, you have to take a long-term view, think about it, who else are there besides Lucius's relatives tonight?" It must be someone in the music industry, maybe there are other big names coming to cheer! ”

"Hehe, Jennifer, the music industry is also of different kinds, do you know what kind of singer Lucius is? He is a hip-hop singer, and most of the people who sing hip-hop are born at the bottom, and we are really no worse than them. So, even if a big guy comes over, it's the big guy who ends up being out of place, not us, understand? Maya spoke her mind.

Jack also said: "Jennifer, listen to Maya, she has a point, Lucius is not like other singers, he is also the owner of his own music company. This party is said to be a celebration of the album's big hit, it is better to congratulate him on the opening of the business, many of the people who came are local residents, and the high-end ones are only the Rainbow Hall, not the people who go there, it is estimated that Lucius just wants to win the front page of tomorrow's news! ”

The family also met Andrew and others on the way, he and Jamal came with Aunt Carroll, not only Maya and they brought baby James, but also several children of the Carroll family and Lucius's youngest son Hakim.

Maya couldn't help but complain in her heart, where is this like a party, isn't this a happy event in the Celestial Empire, and the relatives and family used to eat and drink?

Well, Maya, they still don't have to pay the gift money to eat and drink.
