CHAPTER XXXVIII
In other words, Qingshan was assigned a task by Master Xiaolian at some point, and he didn't even inform me when he left. When I first found out that Qingshan was missing, I also hurriedly asked Master Xiaolian to report this bizarre disappearance.
During the period of time when Qingshan went down the mountain, Senior Brother Xiao Yu didn't think about eating every day, I saw that he was worried, so I had to force him to go to the canteen to eat a few bites during the meal, not to say that people are iron rice and steel, and if you don't eat a meal, you will be hungry, especially Senior Brother Xiao Yu is a mortal like me, how can I afford to be hungry, so during this time Qingshan is not there, I will take care of him more.
Early this morning, when Yuan'er just woke up, he yelled in his mouth to eat Lantern Festival wine-stuffed cakes, saying that he dreamed when he was dreaming, I laughed at her for a while, and saw her ask where there was wine brewed to make Lantern Festival cakes to eat, I thought about it, there must be no such snacks in the big kitchen of the canteen, Qingshan and Xiaoyu and he often eat these foods, so I told Yuan'er that Qingshan Xiaoyu's small kitchen may have some storage.
.
Seeing Yuan'er running to the small kitchen early in the morning to make a fuss, Xiao Yu shouted, "Hey, hey, what are you doing?"
"Don't you see, I'm cooking breakfast!" Yuan'er rolled up the sleeves of his coat that always fell down, and tried to fan the fire.
"This ...... This is my and Aoyama's own kitchen!" Someone looked at the messy kitchen and collapsed.
"Just borrow it, don't be so stingy!" Yuan'er rolled her eyes.
"Oops...... There is only this small half jar of frosting left, and it still takes a lot of time for Qingshan to make, you can save some use!"
"I don't know how to put this salt shaker on the stove after it's been used. β
"That's the sauce sealed by Qingshan, it's not time yet, don't open it!"
"This rice is something that Senior Brother Xiang Yuan has been asking for with great difficulty, don't you need to use so much!"
......
.
There was no rain for many days. The dozen or so pots of flowers outside the house were a little wilted, so I carefully climbed up the trellis and watered them carefully. While comforting Yuan'er, who had already been devastated by Senior Brother Xiao Yu, "That small kitchen is Qingshan's treasure, he has always valued it tightly, and now Qingshan has been called out by your brother, leaving Senior Brother Xiao Yu to take care of the house, and it is estimated that Senior Brother Xiao Yu is not very comfortable, so he will inevitably think about it in pieces." β
Yuan'er was still very angry after listening to Ah Jin's explanation, and then thought that he had searched all the suitable places behind the mountain for retreat during this period of time, but he didn't find Master Qingxu, and he was very discouraged, so he simply took off his shoes and lay on the bed and covered the quilt to make up for sleep.
I saw that Yuan'er was very depressed, so I let her go. Seeing that the time was not early, he hurriedly ran to Huaguang Hall to make breakfast for Master Xiaolian.
.
"You've been practicing diligently lately. β
"Ah...... Yes, it's okay. "Master Xiaolian rarely praises me, but when I heard this sentence, I was a little unaccustomed to it.
"Starting today, I will start teaching you the art of water. β
I was a little surprised to hear Master Xiaolian say this, a few days ago I was thinking about practicing water art so that I could go down to the sea to find Master Qingxu. I knew that the ninth senior brother was born in the water tribe and was the best at water arts, so I originally wanted to ask him to help teach me, but when he saw that the fifth senior brother Wu Xing had successfully passed the Ying period a few days ago, he also gritted his teeth and practiced for himself. Now, hearing Master Xiaolian say that he would teach me in person, I felt very surprised.
Master Xu Xiaolian saw that my face was slightly dark, he dusted off his sleeves and stood up and said, "Some time ago, my nineteen disciples of Chunxu Mountain, didn't they find Yan Hua as their master?"
...... "When other senior brothers and sisters encounter difficulties in practicing, won't they also ask senior brothers for advice?
"Hmm, these nineteen disciples are Ah Jin, aren't you?"
β...... Master, you ask knowingly, Ah Jin is naturally the nineteenth disciple of Chunxu Mountain. β
"Hmm, Ah Jin, don't you still want to find Xingshui to teach you water skills?"
β......β
"Don't you think that he was born in the water tribe, and the water technique is first-class?"
β......β
He suddenly approached me, "Isn't it Ah Jin, haven't you heard of my skills?"
I sneered dryly, "Where are you, Master! I naturally don't know how many times I've heard about Master's skills." "My ears are calloused!
"Well, since you know, don't look for others in the future, do you hear?"
β......β
Seeing that I was unhappy, he suddenly said, "Don't you want to go to the sea with me to find Qingxu?"
"Think, think!" I hurriedly replied, lest the moody Master of the Evening Refining regret it again.
"Seeing you look so unhappy, don't you really want to think about it?"
I gritted my teeth and said cheerfully, "Yes!"
Seeing a faint smile on the corner of Master Xiaolian's lips, I couldn't help but say, "Master Xiaolian, you bullied me like this, are you happy?"
"Cheerful!"
β......β
.
Xiao Lian walked up to Ah Jin and stretched out his hand to point her eyebrows, "Here is the Baihui Acupoint, gather your qi here every day, nourish it with temperature, and for a long time you can see the qi of the human body, look at its surface and know it." β
I touched my eyebrows, and unintentionally touched Master Xiaolian's fingers, which were very cold. For some reason, my heart was slightly chilled by this fingertip.
"Nothingness sees the light, the three points mark the hall, the slight rotation of the mirror, and the brightness is added. Xiao Lian finished slowly, and then instructed, "Remember, don't let me say it a second time." β
.
In the past few months, I have been able to barely enter the water, but I can only stay for half an hour, which is far from enough in the eyes of Xiao Lian, once I saw that he was impatient, so he said, "Otherwise, Master, you rest and rest, I will let Senior Brother Yanhua help me practice and practice." β
"If you dare to ask him for help, don't come back!"
I don't know why Master Xiaolian suddenly got angry, but when I heard this, I didn't feel anything, in fact, it didn't matter where I practiced.
.
"Today I will take you into the sea once. β
"Can I finally go to Master Qingxu?"
"With your current two spells, you can't get to Qingxu. Today I will take you to the south of the sea to practice, where the wind and waves are calm, and it is suitable for you who are just beginning to practice water arts. β
Master Lian fled to the sea to the south and found a black-pointed reef exposed on the sea, and we barely stood on the rock. The sea breeze is indeed not big, but standing on this reef and looking at the waves swaying on all sides, I feel dizzy and can't stand still, but fortunately, Master Xiaolian hugged me, so I was more stable, looking up at Master Xiaolian, facing a pair of amber eyes, looking at it for a long time, it seems that I can fall in. For a moment I was a little dazed.
"Do you remember the essentials of entering the sea?"
I quickly went through the tips in my mind and nodded that I remembered. Master Xiaolian stepped into the water first, and I followed. When I first entered the sea, I could still see some light in the water, but when I entered deeply, I couldn't see anything. At such times, it is like being entangled and wrapped in an unknown dream, and it is suffocating that you can't break free and can't get out. I was a little scared, so I reached out and grabbed the corner of Master Xiaolian's sleeve, but fortunately, Master Xiaolian didn't impatiently shake it off. "Master, I forgot to bring the Night Pearl, if you do...... Can I take it out and use it?"
"The Night Pearl can't see things for a long time in the deep sea, and besides, what is the ability to rely on the Night Pearl to see things everywhere? The perception that I asked you to practice a few days ago can now be taken out and used. Seeing Ah Jin clutching his sleeve tightly, Xiao Lian said, "You will also take away your fear." β
I followed Master Xiaolian to tread water in the sea, and I couldn't see anything. Master Xiaolian told me to close my eyes and concentrate on the Baihui acupoint, and I went through the tips that Master Xiaolian had taught me beforeβ'Seeing the light of nothingness, marking the hall at three o'clock, grinding the mirror slightly, and adding brightness'. I had been training deliberately, but I didn't think it would have much effect, but now in this dark and dark deep sea, I can feel some light. I happily told Master Xiaolian about this. "If I can practice this skill well in the future, even if I can't see one day, it doesn't matter. "As soon as I finished speaking, my nose hit Master Xiaolian's body, it hurt very much, I rubbed my nose, a little aggrieved, why did I suddenly stop, causing me to hit my nose sore.
Xiao Lian turned around and looked at Ah Jin who was wrinkling and touching his nose, and was angry in his heart, "If you are really blind, I will kick you out, and Chunxu Mountain will not accept blind apprentices!" After speaking, he thought about it again, isn't it, can't she continue to practice Parkway Vision?
"I'm not going to say that. I muttered, a little surprised why Master Xiao Lian suddenly got angry.
.
When we returned to Chunxu Mountain, we saw that the sun had moved a few inches past the top of the mountain, and we knew that it was past noon time.
"I asked Yuan Qi to leave you food. He stood there with his hands folded, and when he saw that the white figure had already walked more than a dozen steps to the dining hall at the bottom of the mountain, he casually shouted, "The meal is in the Huaguang Palace." β
During the meal, Master Xiaolian leaned back on the chair and watched me eat, but he didn't mean to move his chopsticks. If it were normal, I am afraid that I would not be able to eat it, but today I am indeed a little hungry, so I will eat it by myself regardless of it.
I met her drunk a few days ago, and the next day I saw that she wanted to sneak away from Huaguang Palace, so I asked her to cook, just trying to tease her. I thought it was only three or two days of freshness, but later, if I didn't see her busy early in the morning, I felt as if something was missing. Later, when the two of them raised chopsticks to eat every day, he realized that it was quite interesting just to watch her eat.
"Master Xiaolian...... Don't you eat?" I was so full that I was too embarrassed not to ask Master.
"Haven't you eaten it all?"
...... "I didn't think you didn't want to eat, so I finished the meal," Master...... I...... Finished all the meals. β
"It's okay...... You make it for me to eat. β
β......β
.
"I think Master Xiaolian definitely did it on purpose! He just can't see me having a casual meal! He just hates it so much!" I said angrily to Tong Yuan'er about the noon.
"Actually...... In fact...... My brother is very clean. Yuan'er tilted his head and thought about it, and said, "Since he grew up, he was not used to getting too close to others. β
