Xiao Qi practiced swords on the mountain very seriously, and when the sun was about to go down, the old man Wuwei began to drive people away, "Let's practice here, I know you are a good and diligent boy, but if you don't go down the mountain, it will be dark." ”

The old man Wuwei didn't forget to remind her, "Don't forget my loach drill tofu." ”

"Got it, master." Xiao Qi waved goodbye to the old man Wuwei, and ran down the mountain quickly, wanting to tell Hua Xi'er the good news quickly.

As a result, I accidentally tripped over a piece of rotten wood, and pounced directly in front, but I didn't expect to pounce on a rabbit, Xiao Qi is so happy, look at this luck, it's much stronger than waiting for a rabbit.

Back in Liujia Village, Xiao Qi went to Hua's house first and told Hua Xi'er the good news, Hua Xi'er was very excited, "I originally thought that it was a great thing that the old man Wuwei could accept you as an apprentice, but I didn't expect that even I would be willing to accept it, which is really something I never dreamed of." ”

Hua Xi'er got up from the bed and didn't look sick at all, "Xiao Qi, I feel that I'm so happy, I'm sick." ”

Xiao Qiyi's question mark in his head, "Aunt Xi, such a big thing as apprenticeship, should we tell my father?" ”

Hua Xi'er, "My father and mother are far away in Jiangnan now, but I know them, and they will definitely be happy." ”

Hua Xi'er asked Mrs. Zhao to cook a large table of dishes, invited Xiao Qi's whole family to dinner, and celebrated lively.

Xiao Qi went back at night and told Liu Dahe about the apprenticeship, and Liu Dahe agreed, "This is a good thing, I used to be lucky to learn the carpentry craft from the master, otherwise I don't know how miserable it would be now." ”

On the second day, Hua Xi'er wrote a list and asked Mrs. Zhao to help go to the town to purchase a lot of things, most of which were food, and the rest were basically daily necessities.

Xiao Qi pointed to a lot of things and asked Hua Xi'er, "Aunt Xi, do we all have to take such things up the mountain?" How can we hold so many things with two pairs of hands? ”

Hua Xi'er: "It's all used by the master, we take some every day, and we get it all quickly." ”

Xiao Qi: "Aunt Xi is so good to the master, I also have to think about what to send to the master." ”

Hua Xi'er picked up a piece of dark blue cloth and said to Xiao Qi: "You don't have to bother to prepare anything else, these things are sent by the two of us together, this piece of cloth will make two clothes for the master, and we will measure the size of the master when we go back, and then take the cloth to Wang Niangzi in the east of the village to do it, the clothes she made are very comfortable to wear." ”

Hua Xi'er and Xiao Qi tidied up, carried a lot of food up the mountain, and met Liu Dakui's daughter-in-law working in the fields at the foot of the mountain.

Liu Dakui's daughter-in-law: "Flower girl, why did you bring so much food to the mountains." ”

Hua Xi'er stroked her forehead, "You still call me Xi'er, we are going to the mountains for a long time, these foods are carried with us, and you can eat them when you are hungry." ”

Saying that, Hua Xi'er handed a piece of osmanthus cake to Liu Dakui's daughter-in-law.

Xiao Qi touched his stomach, and he was already gurgling again: "I'm too hungry too easily, and I always get hungry after a while."

Dakui's daughter-in-law: "Just go around at the foot of the mountain, be careful not to go deep into the mountains, it's dangerous." ”

Xiao Qi: "Thank you aunt for your concern." ”

Dakui's daughter-in-law saw the two girls enter the mountain with big bags and small bags, and couldn't help but sigh in her heart, looking at the scenery in the mountains is not good, it is really a rich and noble family, and they take so much food with them when they go out, and the rich people think differently.

Dakui's daughter-in-law was reluctant to eat osmanthus cake, so she carefully wrapped it in a handkerchief and stuffed it into her sleeve pocket, planning to take it home and share it with several children.

On the way up the mountain, Xiao Qi stroked his chest, "Fortunately, I didn't say anything, and the master said that he couldn't tell others about his whereabouts." ”

The road has been walked several times, and Xiao Qi and Hua Xi'er can now find the hut without looking at the marks left on the trees.

When the two of them appeared in front of the cabin with a large bag, the old man Wuwei was still meditating in front of the house, and when he saw them, he stood up and said, "I was hungry and wanted to eat, so you have arrived, but coincidentally, what food did you bring with you today?" ”

Xiao Qi put a few pastries on the wooden table in front of the house, "Master, Aunt Xi bought you a lot of pastries for apprenticeship." ”

Hua Xi'er put the jar wrapped in the small quilt on the small wooden table with a flattering face, "Master, didn't you say you wanted to eat loach drill tofu last time, and we brought it to you today." ”

Wuwei old man, "I thought about the apprenticeship again......"

Xiao Qi: "Master, do you know? I said I'll take such a heavy jar, Aunt Xi has to grab it with me, and I will bring it to you all the way, and I am so tired that I am sweating profusely. Master, don't change your mind, yesterday you said that you would accept us as apprentices. ”

"I didn't say no."

The old man Wuwei nodded at Hua Xi'er, "Xi'er, although you don't have the talent to practice martial arts, you are very clever, and you will make my old man happy, and it will not be a loss to accept you as an apprentice." ”

After the old man Wuwei finished eating the loach drill tofu, he said to the two little apprentices with a serious face: "Before officially apprenticing, I want to tell you one thing first, choosing to be a disciple of my Feitian Sect will have a certain sacrifice, because our Feitian Sect requires our disciples to do at least one major thing every year to help the poor people. ”

Xiao Qixin said, anyway, it is to do good things, not to do bad things, what is so difficult, so he replied with Hua Xi'er: "I know, master, we will abide by the rules of the master." ”

"Okay, I'll take you both, but I can only stay in Phoenix Mountain for a few months, and time is pressing."

"But you don't have to worry, I'll teach you a rough idea first, and then you can slowly comprehend it after I leave."

"In the future, you can arrange your own time, you don't have to come over on a rainy day, it's up to you how much you can learn."

The old man Wuwei hung the portrait of the ancestor in the middle of the room, Xiao Qi and Hua Xi'er kowtowed to the portrait three times together, each put on three pillars of incense, and kowtowed three times to the old man Wuwei.

After kowtowing and getting up, Hua Xi'er said to Xiao Qi: "Great, Xiao Qi, we will be the descendants of the Feitian Sect in the future, we must practice martial arts well, and we will definitely become a generation of heroines in the future." ”

Xiao Qi was also very happy, "Aunt Xi, great, we finally got our wish." ”

Hua Xi'er: "I am your senior sister and senior sister now." ”

The old man Wuwei looked at the pile of food inside and outside the house and was very pleased, sure enough, it was still a female apprentice who was filial, if it was replaced by the boys who were collected before, it would be good if he didn't come to grab something to eat with you.

Hua Xi'er stepped forward, "Master, we also bought you cloth, dark blue, you go back and find an old dress and we will take it back, and let Wang Niangzi, who specializes in helping people make clothes, make two new clothes for you according to the size." ”

Xiao Qi: "Master, Mrs. Wang's craftsmanship is good, and the clothes made are sure that you are comfortable to wear." ”

When the old man Wuwei heard the apprentice say that he would make him new clothes, he was so happy that he couldn't close his mouth, so he hurriedly found a piece of clothing and handed it to Hua Xi'er, "Good, good, it's really a good apprentice, the master regrets it, he shouldn't have accepted those stinky boys as apprentices before, he should have accepted all female apprentices, so that there will be endless good things to eat and new clothes to wear." ”

The old man Wuwei took out a book from a pile of messy things in the corner of the room and handed it to Xiao Qi, "This is our Flying Heaven Sect's mental formula, you can take it and see it first, and if you don't understand something, you can ask me." ”

Hua Xi'er stroked her forehead, such an important thing was actually picked up from a pile of garbage, Xindao, master, are you really sure that this is the mantra of our sect?

The old man Wuwei continued: "The two most famous things of our Feitian faction in the rivers and lakes are light skills and flying swordsmanship, and now the sword spectrum and the heart method mantra are already in your hands, you have to learn by heart, and light skills will be taught to you from the day after tomorrow." ”

Xiao Qi, "Master rest assured, we will definitely learn by heart." ”

"Don't come over tomorrow, for the teacher, you have something to do tomorrow to go to the town, Xi'er, you will definitely not be able to catch up with Xiao Qi, I will purchase some medicinal materials by the way, and teach you to make some self-defense pills in the future."

Hua Xi'er clapped her hands, "Okay, okay, master, you're bothered." ”

"There is one more thing I want to advise, you are a girl's family, and the skill of cooking still needs to be practiced well, it is Xiao Qi Niang who helps you cook during this time, right, just ask her to learn, I think this craft is better than the first floor of the world in the capital, you Senior Brother Li bought a lot of spices here, and when you can cook, I can also eat a hot meal."

Hua Xi'er: "Yes, master, we must learn how to cook when we go back." ”

Xiao Qi: "Master, you have also been to a big place like the capital, what is the capital like?" ”

Wuwei old man: "The capital is far away, and there are many people...... When you grow up, go and see for yourself, and remember to bring a few pieces of coarse cloth when you two come over the day after tomorrow. ”

The two said in unison: "Yes, master." ”
