Li Lincai waited for Li Yao'er outside the mountain col for almost half an hour, and his daughter had not yet come out of the lotus array.

It was already autumn, and the sun in July was still shining hotly overhead, and Li Lincai was sitting in the shade of a tree and was drowsy.

When he woke up, he heard someone calling out to him.

"Daddy wake up, daddy—"

The voice is strange and familiar.

Li Lincai opened his sleepy eyes and looked at the place where the voice came, only to see that not far away, a young man with a handsome face and a handsome face who was not much different from his daughter was looking at him and walking towards him.

This person Li Lincai didn't know, but he felt familiar and friendly inexplicably.

He stood up, looked at the young man suspiciously, and did not take the initiative to talk, after all, the voice he heard earlier was calling: "Daddy", he didn't know this young man, and his hasty response would cause the other party to misunderstand.

The young man took a few steps towards him, and met Li Lincai's puzzled gaze, the young man suddenly smiled, his eyes were playful, and Shi Shiran hugged his fists and saluted.

"This uncle, there is no scenery and nothing here, why Uncle He is taking a nap here?"

The voice was unfamiliar and familiar, it was the voice that I had just heard in a daze.

Li Lincai was embarrassed by the young man's question, he was honest, and he didn't know how to explain to the young man that he was waiting for his daughter here, and he was worried that his daughter would come out and be bumped into after a while, so he only had an embarrassed smile on his face and couldn't speak.

The young man looked at Li Lincai and suddenly burst out laughing, and he opened his mouth crisply.

"Dad, you really don't recognize me?"

Li Lincai heard this voice clearly, his eyes widened violently, and he looked carefully at the young man in front of him.

After a closer look, I realized that this young man's eyebrows and eyes did have a bit of Li Yao'er's shadow, just like his daughter had become a man, and the clothes on the young man's body and the scarf on his head were not the men's clothes that his girl had prepared at the beginning.

Thinking of who his girl went to see just now, Li Lincai finally reacted.

"You're a big girl!"

Li Yao'er smiled proudly and nodded.

Li Lincai looked at Li Xiao'er carefully with a novelty between his eyebrows, and Li Yao'er turned around in front of Li Lincai, so that Li Lincai could see it clearly.

Li Lincai was amazed.

"Like, like, like!"

The size is still the same as before, but the skeleton has become larger, and the facial features have become more distinct and more masculine to add some of the masculinity of a man, and he looks like a handsome boy.

Li Yao'er raised her chin proudly.

"Of course, this is Sister Jinhua's illusion. ”

Li Yao'er is still calling Jinhua her sister, and Li Lincai's family already knows about it, and the statement given by Li Yao'er is that Jinhua is used to the initial title and does not want to change the title of master and apprentice.

Although Li Lincai and Li felt that this was disrespectful to Jinhua, since Jinhua didn't care about it, they couldn't say anything.

After showing off, Li Yao'er suddenly remembered something, and opened her mouth to urge Li Lincai.

"Daddy, Sister Hua said that this illusion can only be used during the day, and it will disappear before dusk, and the hour is not early, let's go to the school quickly." ”

This is not Jinhua's deliberate difficulty, this is the end of the law era, the aura between heaven and earth is extremely thin, Jinhua's technique can be maintained until sunset or with the help of Rihua's power.

The sun and the moon contain power, and those who practice magic can use the light to make magic powerful, and this ability is an extremely profound and effortless technique, but the disadvantages are also obvious.

Before the beginning of the sunset month, it is when the spell fails.

When Li Lincai heard this, he didn't dare to delay, nodded and followed the brisk Li Yao'er towards the other side of Phoenix Mountain.

Originally, Li Lincai was a little apprehensive about Li Yao'er's admission to the school, and he felt that he was careless and reliable, but now with Jinhua to help his daughter change her appearance, it has become easier all of a sudden.

It took more than an hour for the two of them to climb from one side of the mountain to the other, and then from the foot of the mountain they inquired all the way to the direction of the school called Zhiyuanju.

The school is separated by a pine forest and the nearby village by a distance, not far away, only more than a hundred zhang, and the name of the school takes the meaning of tranquility and far-reaching.

The old gentleman is fifty and six this year, and he has been poor all his life, and the front yard of this school teaches and the back yard is lived, except for two brick houses, stove houses, pigsties, and utility rooms are thatched huts.

The old gentleman taught with an attitude of teaching without class, so although Li Yao'er was a little older than other students, he only asked a few questions why he wanted to study at such an age and why he came to study elsewhere.

These questions are not difficult to answer, and you can cope with them by making up an answer.

Li Yao'er said that a few years ago, the family was poor, so he missed his age, and it was better to say why he came to Zhiyuan Academy.

The technique is half a year's worth of rice plus six coins of silver.

Li Lincai brought silver when he came, because he was not sure if he could enter the school, so he didn't pick it together, so he said to Mr. Okay, wait a few days, and make up for it when the school starts.

The old gentleman is a literati, Li Lincai is a rural villager, the two can't talk about one place, and after discussing Li Yao'er's study, Li Lincai asked Li Yao'er to go out of the old man's house.

The old gentleman nodded and did not send the two of them out, nor even watched them leave, and did not stop reading by himself.

Coming out of the old gentleman, Li Yao'er couldn't hide her excitement, and she didn't know how to deal with herself with her hands and feet.

The greatest wish of all these days has finally been fulfilled, and she feels both excited and unreal.

She wanted to laugh out loud and share the joy with her father, but when she turned her head, she didn't see much joy on Li Lincai, but a little worried, Li Yao'er knew that most of her father was worried about her future, and he didn't sincerely hope that she could enter the school as she did.

Li Yao'er had to suppress the excitement in her heart, pretending to be fine, and beckoning her father to return to Zhangjiawan.

When they came to the foot of Phoenix Mountain again, it was past midnight, and after looking at the sky, Li Yao'er remembered Jinhua's words, and hurriedly beckoned Li Lincai to go to Phoenix Mountain.

The two of them hurried slowly, and they didn't even stop to eat on the way, but just ate a few bites of bread at the mountain spring, and finally returned to the lotus array before dusk.

When Li Yao'er stepped into the lotus array, the illusion was about to fail, and she returned to her womanly appearance.

The moment the illusion disappeared, red dots immediately appeared on Li Yao'er's delicate cheeks.

It was the mark she had left on her face in the morning.

Jinhua used surgery to avoid the danger of her scar, but he did not completely heal the scar for her, not that he couldn't do it, he wanted Li Yao'er to have a long memory, so that she could remember the pain after her cheek injury, so as not to come back next time.

Unexpectedly, Li Yao'er didn't take this pain to heart at all, Li Yao'er suppressed the excitement all the way, and completely released it after entering the lotus array.

She happily stepped into the lotus array, calling Jinhua's name all the way, like a magpie in the spring sun after a rainstorm, jumping and chirping towards the bamboo dock.

"Sister Jinhua, Sister Jinhua, Mr. has accepted me, and I can study. ”

Jinhua was meditating in the room behind the bamboo forest, when he heard Li Yao'er's voice, he walked out of the bamboo dock with a disgusted frown, and happened to see Li Yao'er running towards him.

Jinhua subconsciously wanted to reprimand Li Yao'er for not seeing the world, making a fuss, he was even half-open, and the words of complaining had already come to his mouth, but the next moment, the little girl rushed in front of him, did not slow down at all, and crashed into his arms at once, and hugged him firmly.
