Chapter 7 - First Acquaintance with the Soul
The deep and quiet night falls on the bamboo forest, and only one of the thatched huts is still lit with a faint light. In this thatched hut, there are three figures of different heights. Outside the thatched hut, it was faintly visible that standing on the far right was a middle-aged man, who looked excited, and he said something close to a boy in front of him, who was about twelve or thirteen years old.
The twelve or thirteen-year-old boy's face was excited, he suddenly knelt down to a middle-aged man and a woman in front of him, and said with an excited expression: "Master, Master, don't worry, we will be a family in the future, disciple Shi Lanbo will meet Master, Master."
"Good family, good family, family" The middle-aged man and woman in front of him looked excited, and the two of them quickly helped Shi Lanbo up from the ground. Said with a smile on his face.
"Master, Master, we are back, Shanshan chased butterflies, forgot the time, and now we have found her back" Just when Feng Baiyi and Xia Qing had just accepted Shi Lanbo as their apprentice, a voice also came from outside the grass hut. Feng Baiyi and Xia Qing knew as soon as they heard it that this was Gao Hanyue's voice.
"Yue'er, you're back" As soon as Xia Qing greeted her, she saw a girl in a long white dress with two little boys who were also dressed in white while she was slightly shorter, and a girl with a lot of mud and bamboo leaves on her pink clothes.
Xia Qing saw Feng Shanshan standing on Gao Hanyue's right, she immediately straightened her face, and said in a somewhat solemn voice: "Shanshan, where have you been? Why did you come back now?"
When Feng Shanshan heard her mother's words, her originally very happy face became a little shy. She lowered her head slightly, stared closely at the somewhat worn straw sandals she was wearing on her feet, and said in a bumpy voice that she could barely hear without paying close attention.
"Mother, I forgot, I saw a very beautiful multicolored butterfly, so I chased this butterfly, I didn't chase the butterfly, but I saw a sister in a butterfly dress standing in front of me, she gave me a letter for me to give to you, and she also taught me some things about the soul, so I came back late," Feng Shanshan added some oil and vinegar slightly, and tried her best to find a way not to let Xia Qing scold herself.
Feng Shanshan saw that Xia Qing's face was still bruised, and she knew that she should be out of play. So she lowered her head and waited for Xia Qing to announce the specific content of the punishment.
Seeing Feng Shanshan's appearance, Gao Hanyue and Feng Yuchong had probably guessed that Xia Qing was going to announce the punishment. So, Gao Hanyue and Feng Yuchong glanced at each other, and just wanted to step forward to help Feng Shanshan intercede. But I heard Xia Qingyi muttering silently there: "Purple Ni Dress Butterfly Long Skirt Purple Ni Dress Butterfly Long Skirt Purple Ni Dress Butterfly Long Skirt Purple Ni Dress Butterfly Long Skirt"
"What's wrong with you, Master?Does the purple neon dress butterfly dress mean anything?" Gao Hanyue was very curious and kept looking sideways at Xia Qing in front of her, although she couldn't bear it there and didn't want to ask, but seeing that her master had been chanting "Purple Ni Dress Butterfly Dress", Gao Hanyue thought about it for a long time before asking.
Xia Qing heard Gao Hanyue's question, her expression still did not change, although she felt that this "purple neon dress butterfly dress" was somewhat familiar in her memory, but she just couldn't remember the owner of the "purple neon dress butterfly dress" that her daughter said.
Xia Qing could only shake his head, forced a smile and said: "It's okay, you're tired, let's start the official class tomorrow, it's different from the previous practice, you go back to the peach blossom forest to rest first, get ready for tomorrow" Xia Qing turned around and walked into the grass house, leaving Feng Yuchong, Feng Shanshan and Gao Hanyue standing in place, and they didn't know what medicine Xia Qing was selling.
"Forget it" Gao Hanyue is a big sister after all, she knows that she has to make her own decisions now, so she took the hands of Feng Yuchong and Feng Shanshan, and said to them with a smile: "Do you know that the class is going to be officially held tomorrow, let's go back and rest early."
Feng Yuchong and Feng Shanshan have always listened to Gao Hanyue's words the most, they nodded obediently, and the three of them smiled and went back to the Peach Blossom Forest. After all, they are young and don't know too much about these things, although Gao Hanyue is a little suspicious, but she doesn't want to doubt her closest master and mother. So, the three of them stepped on the quiet bamboo forest path and went back to the peach blossom forest to rest.
"Senior brother is really her?"
"Purple neon dress butterfly dress, you can't go wrong"
"Is she really back? What has she been doing all these years?"
"Well, who knows?"
In the early morning, the quiet and far-reaching bamboo forest was broken by a rapid "thunderclap", outside an old and simple bamboo house, a middle-aged man held a newly purchased firecracker, and lit a match, he held this string of red firecrackers in his hand and lit the fire. Standing beside him was a woman in a pink dress, this woman clasped her hands around her chest, and in his arms was holding a little girl who was about ten years old, and this little girl's eyes were staring intently at the sound of firecrackers in the hands of the middle-aged man in front of him, and the little girl was laughing with her hands.
Beside the little girl stood a little boy of her age, and even a seven-point look-alike. But compared to this little girl, the little boy's eyes kept quietly falling on a girl in white who was older than him and a young man in black who were talking opposite, and the little boy secretly felt a trace of jealousy.
A girl in white standing on the other side of the firecracker sneered and talked to a black-clothed young man beside her. The face of the young man in black was a little old-fashioned, and he didn't say much, but he was able to say it for a while.
"I, solemnly announce! Our class has begun!" The middle-aged man standing in the center set off the firecrackers in his hand, threw the long pole in his hand to the ground, and shouted loudly to the four children and a mature woman around him.
"Good!" shouted in unison from four children of the same age who were standing beside the middle-aged man.
"Come, children, let's go to class! You can ask for whatever you want, as long as it's not too much, your Xia Qing Master will help you get it!" The middle-aged man's expression suddenly appeared with a little playfulness.
Standing beside the middle-aged man's unfazed face, the Cheng ** almost spat on the ground. She was just about to refute it, but she saw the eyes of the four pairs of brushes around her. She could only silently stick out her tongue, say "yes" and stop talking.
"Shi Niang is so good!" even though the young man in black was reluctant to say this, he still followed the other three people to shout the same.
"Okay, children, let's come" The middle-aged man was Feng Baiyi, and the woman was Xia Qing. It was also a good time for them to find four children who allowed them to teach. And two of them are still their children, but they also think they can. Being able to pass on their experience and what they've learned throughout their lives is also worth it.
For Feng Baiyi and Xia Qing, it was indeed difficult to establish a school. But now, it's a matter of their hearts.
Feng Baiyi took the four children to the outside of the peach blossom forest, and next to the newly grown peach blossom tree outside their bamboo house, Feng Baiyi set up four tables and chairs made of bamboo. Feng Baiyi smiled and said to the four children around him: "Children, this is our classroom. I'll just tell you one thing, our studies here are different from the usual schools. We don't have books, every class is a live lesson, and I hope you can understand that we want you to pursue what you really want to do."
"Okay!" After all, these four children were still young, and they didn't know exactly what Feng Baiyi was talking about. So the four of them sat down separately on the four bamboo chairs, and quietly watched Feng Baiyi walk to the center of them, standing under a newborn peach tree to start their first day of class.
"Today, I'm going to tell you what kind of soul ability each of us has. Although the soul is said to be the existence of one in ten thousand, since we all have the soul of the instrument, we are destined to have a different life from others. As long as it is on our Demon Spirit Continent, having a weapon soul is basically equivalent to having a powerful privilege. Whether it is in the Qi State or the Feng Kingdom, the owner of the Instrument Soul is favored. ”
