Chapter 37: The Praying Mantis (4)
It was a rare sunny day, and there was a huge lake at the foot of Mt. Tenjin, surrounded by snow and ice, but the surface of the lake was sparkling, and there was no sign of freezing.
A lightly dressed girl, who looked to be only eleven or twelve years old, with apricot eyes and eyebrows, and two pigtails on her head, stood by the lake at the moment, with a cloak on her arm, and looked depressed.
"Hey, Senior Sister Bai, why are you here. ”
Bailisheng obeyed the master's orders, and went down the mountain to visit the people passing by here - I heard that there are people in the villages in the suburbs who are haunted, and at the foot of the "Son of Heaven" in Yandu, just Tianshen Mountain is surrounded by many immortal gates, not to mention the landlord of Shanhaizong, but if it is located in Yandu, even if it is only in the suburbs, the dragon qi is blessed, and it is still a heavy place in Yuanyang, and the ghosts generally do not have the courage to approach, so ..... What kind of person is so presumptuous, daring to pretend to be a ghost under the nose of the Mountain and Sea Sect?
Yuan Yu Hall is in charge of the safety of all roads, and they are responsible for the usual ghost hunting practices, but most of the accidents occur in other cities, and they don't want to be in Yandu this time, Baili Sheng's master, the hall master of Yuanqing Hall is very curious about this.
"Ah, Senior Brother Baili. Bai Xiaoyue originally thought about herself, but when she heard the movement, she looked back, and when she saw the person coming, it was the mountain gate Tianjiao Bai Lisheng, and she was secretly happy in her heart, but on the surface, she was polite and well-behaved.
"It's freezing cold, how can you wear so thin. Bai Lisheng gradually approached, and saw that Bai Xiaoyue was thin and weak, and was only wearing a cotton skirt with thin fabric, he couldn't help frowning, and kindly reminded, "Although you and I have practiced, we are still mortal wombs, so we should pay careful attention to it, don't get sick." ”
Bai Xiaoyue nodded when she heard this, her eyes were on the lake in front of her, and her tone was very sad:
"It's not that Satsuki doesn't know, it's just ..... Beginner ...... from Satsuki In the past month, Senior Sister Zhu has touched the threshold of qi induction, but no matter how hard Xiao Yue tries, there is no sign of feeling spiritual power. ”
She bent down slightly, stretched out her hand into the cold lake, and just touched her fingertips, a cold air hit her brain, Bai Xiaoyue's body trembled, she quickly got up and withdrew her hand, opened her mouth and breathed hot air to her fingers,
"The master said that Xiao Yue's perception of water spiritual power is relatively strong, so Xiao Yue tries to get in touch with the water element more in her spare time, so she came here to observe ......"
As she said this, her eyes reddened slightly,
"It's just a pity, it's cold, and Xiaoyue can't go into the water. ”
Bai Lisheng was taken aback when he heard this, and when he saw the girl's weak and helpless appearance, he couldn't help but feel a little pity in his heart - it wasn't that he had any thoughts about Bai Xiaoyue, although Bai Lisheng was frivolous and lustful, the other party was indeed beautiful, but no matter what, he couldn't be interested in a twelve-year-old girl.
Thinking of his younger sister at home, Baili Sheng was soft-hearted, took off his cloak, and planned to cover the other party, he comforted,
"Senior sister doesn't need to worry about this, the path of cultivation should follow the will of heaven, it's useless to be anxious, just wait for the time to be ripe, and have something to do. ”
Bai Xiaoyue took a step back, shook her head and refused the other party's move, opened the cloak in her hand and put it on, her face flushed,
"Thank you, senior brother...... It's just that Xiaoyue's qualifications are low, not as good as Senior Brother Tianzhong's qualifications, you are a double spirit body, and a strange spirit body, I heard that the thunder spirit element is secretly in line with the Heavenly Dao, whether it is Senior Brother Baili or Senior Brother Wang of the Single Spirit Body, in just one month, you have begun to take shape, and you are about to break through and reach the middle stage of the spirit ......."
Bai Lisheng didn't feel embarrassed or angry because of the other party's refusal, he casually tied his cloak again, heard the other party's remarks, looked disapproving, shook his head and said,
"Senior sister, why should I be arrogant, mortals are born by practicing qi, just to enter the world in the future, Ren Nawang Xiaobao has excellent qualifications, even if he will break through the dust and become enlightened in the future, he will still be used by my Dachu royal family!"
"Not to mention Kyoto, only Yandu has no ancestors to worship, although my city is remote, the city lord is also an enlightened beginner monk!
"That's what I said......"
Bai Xiaoyue nodded in agreement this time, and suddenly changed her tone, and asked Baili Sheng in a somewhat tentative tone, "Senior Brother Baili, I heard that you and Senior Brother Wang were born in the same city, have you ever been acquainted?"
"Not familiar. For Wang Xiaobao, who didn't pay attention to it, Bai Lisheng said that it was false not to be jealous, but fortunately, the other party's background is not as good as his own, and he will achieve success in the future, at most, he will settle in the palace and become a family worship.
The offering is just a good name, but in fact, it is a thug who cares for the home.
There are only two boys in the Baili family, and the younger sister can ignore it, his eldest brother has no cultivation qualifications, and the Baili family will be in his pocket in the future.
"However, if I have some leisure, I still plan to make friends with that Wang Xiaobao. ”
Bai Lisheng touched his chin and said this, although he is a gentleman, he has never done less things to bully men and women, but he is not without brains and knows how to act and measure.
Since Wang Xiaobao is in the same city as him, and he is a thunder spirit body that is rare in a hundred years, he can not be offended, of course, he should not be offended, if he can make good friends, multiple friends are better than multiple enemies...... If he can't make friends, he won't be reluctant.
"That'...... What about Uncle Shangguan?" finally asked what she wanted to ask the most, Bai Xiaoyue tried her best to make herself look just casual, on the day of the test, Shangguan Yuan could be said to be the person she was most impressed with,
I still remember that at that time, the sky was falling, Shangguan Yuan was originally very good-looking, his bearing was warm, and between the five colors of Tianhua, it became more and more dusty, and the fairy aura was as if the god was coming, and even directly attracted the sect master to come in person, except for Ye Wuming who was the youngest son of Yan Qiuying, this time the Shanhai Sect recruited thousands of students, but he only accepted that person as a disciple.
"Brother Yuan, you say?" When it comes to Shangguan Yuan, Bai Lisheng's expression is much more vivid, the two have similar backgrounds, and they have helped each other in advance, the more they contact him, the more they appreciate each other as a person, although he is a bastard, but he has always looked down on those reckless hypocrites, but Shangguan Yuan is different, he always looks quiet, five spirit roots, into the pinnacle, this class of disciples has faintly taken him as the leader, but has never seen the other party arrogant and complacent, flamboyant and boastful, but friendly and gentle, helping others, recently busy with cultivation, but directly disappeared, low-key ruthless.
"That kid hasn't been out for a few days, probably because it's closed, if it's normal, I just summoned him, and in less than a moment he was already sitting in the house and drinking water. ”
Bai Xiaoyue smiled lightly, revealing a curious and yearning look.
"Xiao Yue has heard that Uncle Shangguan has been famous for a long time, but he has never been in contact, and he has often heard that Uncle Shangguan treats his disciples very kindly, if he has the opportunity, I hope that Senior Brother can introduce him......"
"Well said. ”
Bai Lisheng raised his eyebrows when he heard this, and suddenly felt that something was wrong with the atmosphere, but he still opened his mouth to respond.
