Chapter 3: Studying Gu Techniques
The days fly by, Xia Qingyi looks at the sunrise and moonset every day to calculate the time, Miao Yingtian also rode the wind to supervise her every day to familiarize herself with the identification of various poisonous insects and herbs, and later found that Xia Qingyi can recite all the ancient books she has read once.
The fly in the ointment is that when learning to use all kinds of strange-shaped utensils to manipulate insects, Xia Qingyi's progress is very slow, and she summed it up by herself, that is, the hand-brain incoordination caused by the underdevelopment of the cerebellum, if you understand it, your brain will understand it, but your hands won't.
And many appliances need internal force to urge the sound waves that are lower than what humans can collect in order to achieve a hundred miles of call, she has no internal force, and she can't hear this extremely low frequency sound wave, so it is impossible to determine whether there is progress or not.
Although the matter of internal force, every time he mentioned it, Miao Yingtian comforted him with a strange and mysterious face, it was okay, he had a way to help her improve quickly. But over time, everything that can be learned has been learned, and if it can't, it won't, so she is a little discouraged and upset, so she sits on the stone steps and looks at the sky, listens to the wind, counts the little bees, and is handy at paddling and fishing.
And the dark river in the cave is a good place for her to take a nap, because the murals on both sides of the river are maps of all kinds of Gu insects, as long as she uses her piece of treasure soul sacrifice order to aim at the rock wall, she can project the content.
When she found it for the first time, she couldn't help but whistle, looking like a female hooligan, which really scared Miao Yingtian, after the freshness, it became a good place for her to be lazy, closed her eyes and lay on the bamboo raft, floating along the current, the unique coolness of the underground river accompanied by the slight bumps and ups and downs of the water waves, just right to play the role of sleeping.
was seen by Miao Yingtian several times, and when he was tired of studying, he praised her for her diligence with a smile on her face, and Xia Qingyi, who was weak-hearted, could only bow her head and feel guilty for a while.
On such a day, Xia Qingyi later thought that if she could not go out of the valley for the rest of her life, his master did not ask about her birth, did not ask about her origin, and even asked her name, and taught her all her life wholeheartedly.
Since coming here, she has never bothered about eating, although his master likes to roast some strange insects for her to eat, but as a modern person, she can always immediately change her thinking and tell herself that these are high-quality proteins, so every time, what the master gives, she doesn't say a word, just stuffs it in her mouth, which also makes Miao Yingtian very satisfied.
Even the clothes she wore after crossing over were purchased by this attentive old man when she was sleeping with the big python, and sometimes she would think that she was his own daughter in a trance
"Master, aren't you lonely, have you ever had someone you like?" Xia Qingyi sat on a swing made of rattan, and asked while directing "Hurricane" to send her higher with the help of his tail.
When Miao Yingtian heard this, the hand that was originally holding the mortar and was busy pounding the medicine suddenly paused, retracted the smile on his face, and said in a dark and solemn voice:
"No, you can't have it either"
Then, he simply put down the equipment in his hand, flicked the herbs on his body, and commanded "Hurricane" to hump himself to Xia Qingyi's side, pulled the swing with one hand, leaned forward, and made his head against Xia Qingyi's, forcing the two to look at each other:
"Promise the master, before you win the Gu King, you can't get married"
Xia Qingyi was at a loss in the face of this sudden tense atmosphere, and before she could speak, Miao Yingtian changed her tone to a gentle tone as if she was afraid that she would not agree,
"Obedient, except for this matter, the master can promise you anything"
Xia Qingyi looked at Miao Yingtian and spoke in an inaudible voice:
"Then what if you really meet someone you like, can't you?"
"No, no, absolutely not" Miao Yingtian yelled at Xia Qingyi a little uncontrollably, his face burst with anger, like an old father who couldn't accept his child's disobedience, he pulled Xia Qingyi off the swing, held her arm, and gradually tightened, trying to convey his pressure and warning with his hand.
Xia Qingyi was suddenly dragged and stumbled, took a few steps forward to stabilize her figure, and shouted in fright:
"Got it, got it!"
Miao Yingtian's face softened when he heard this, but after Xia Qingyi stood firm, he broke free of his hand, but ran a long way in the opposite direction, and then rolled up a huge leaf and aimed it at his mouth, as if simulating the appearance of a microphone, before he dared to argue:
"Master, you are so unreasonable, you like how to control a person, what if you like it at first sight"
"Kill him!" Miao Yingtian replied without thinking about it
This time it's Xia Qingyi's turn to be mad, and if she falls in love, she has to be restricted, even if she comes to ancient times, she can't restrict her human rights, although she knows that there is no such thing here, but how can she control and guarantee emotional matters.
It's crazy! The point is, who can slash her beloved, the more she thinks about it, the more she feels that her master is a complete monster, and she can't communicate at all, but at this moment, a familiar voice came from her head:
"Because you're tempted, it's impossible to win the battle of the Gu King!!"
This is the first time it has taken the initiative to speak after they have sealed, she is full of curiosity about this Gu worm in her body, but she can't ignore it, these days, his surprising silence makes her almost forget its existence.
"Can you be specific" She thought that she would take this opportunity to learn more about this little friend who was going to live and die with her in the future, but Xia Qingyi waited for a long time, so long that she thought that it was going to pretend to be dead again.
"You will be distracted, you will have weaknesses, you will know in the future"
This kind of answer makes Xia Qingyi crazy, just like adults coaxing children when she was a child, for your good and for your good, we are all for your good, but we just can't tell you the answer!
Half-loud, there was an inaudible sigh:
"If you do, don't let him know what you're thinking, and don't let others know what you're thinking."
It's an underground romance! Xia Qingyi felt that this insect was still somewhat sympathetic,
"Next question, what's your name?"
The insect groaned for a long time and replied:
"I don't have a name, but you can get me one."
Xia Qingyi, who was in a mood that suddenly got better, really thought about it for a long time,
"You're green, EMMM, Qingqing Zijin, yo my heart, call you Zijin, okay"
"Yes," the bug readily agreed this time.
Here, Xia Qingyi was still immersed in the joy of building a bridge of friendship with the little bugs, but she didn't know that during the period when they were communicating with their consciousness, Miao Yingtian saw that she was slow to speak, thinking that she was angry with herself and had gone crazy.
Annoyed, I felt that Xia Qingyi must have been angry and rough, so I ignored him, and could only stare at the wind, which was also a look, none of my business, and it wasn't my play, and finally she simply made a lying down posture, saying that she couldn't do anything.
"Meow," Miao Yingtian turned around when he heard the voice, as if he had seen a savior
"Wind, catch it!!"
In the valley, I saw a man and a snake chasing a fat cat around in embarrassment, and finally the fat cat was tired of playing, so he stopped and meowed around them, begging for dried fish. Miao Yingtian panted and smiled at the fat cat:
"Small, little thing, grandpa will introduce you to a little master, okay!?" While coaxing and caressing the kitten's head,
"Na! These are all for you" Miao Yingtian touched a backpack from the wind, took out a large handful of jerky and pushed it towards it, the fat cat unceremoniously swept the jerky into his arms with his paws, sniffing and sniffing excitedly.
Miao Yingtian saw that it was in a good mood, so he took out the red ribbon that had been prepared and tied it around her neck, tied a beautiful bow, and then nodded with satisfaction.
These days, Xia Qingyi obviously found that her master had been avoiding her, and seemed to be planning something. Sensible, she is very smart to choose to cooperate with the master's performance, the world of adults, see through it and don't say it. But she vaguely felt that it wouldn't be a bad thing.
Sure enough, the premonition soon came true, and when she came back from practice that day, she found a set of clothes that looked very expensive on the bed, and there was a note on it, which read:
"Tomorrow afternoon, put on new clothes and take you down the mountain to play for the teacher"
This is the first time Xia Qingyi has gone to the world outside the valley since she crossed over, and she was so excited. She waited an hour early on the road out of the valley, and when she saw the wind in the distance, she hurriedly waved her hands
"Master, what about this, come on"
Miao Yingtian is also very grand today, he was carefully dressed up when he saw it, changed his simple style in the past, wore a crescent-colored straight-placket robe, embroidered with green silk on his clothes with all kinds of Gu worms, his hair was simply tied up with a bamboo hairpin, and he could smell the fragrance of woody moss when he got close, this dress was really restrained, calm and atmospheric, Xia Qingyi looked at Miao Yingtian at the same time, Miao Yingtian was also looking at her, with a snow-white melon seed face, a pair of black and shiny eyes flashing under her slender eyebrows, revealing a bright light, Wearing the lotus pink pair of vibrating waist toddler skirts he chose for her, his long hair was draped over his vest, and he was gently held by a silver ribbon, he had a light spirit, his apprentice was so good-looking, it was his own negligence on the part of an old man who was dedicated to Gu.
"Apprentice, come up" Miao Yingtian beckoned Xia Qingyi over, but she always felt awkward about his master's mount
"If you walk, you will have to walk for a long time, and it may be dark by then," as if she saw her entanglement, Miao Yingtian broke the key with a word
"Well, it's coming" Xia Qingyi still couldn't resist the temptation of the outside world, so she sat down in response. As soon as I sat down, I was surprised to find that there was a three-flowered Garfield behind the master's back, only to see that its five-short figure was due to learning to sit down, and a whole rickets made the belly appear more rounded, a pair of small pointed ears were erected on both sides of the head, carefully receiving the surrounding information, and its ears would move sensitively a few times if there was a little movement, Xia Qingyi saw that her heart melted, and she directly put her face on it, took a few deep breaths, and then hugged her to her body, holding it with both hands, looking like a treasure
"Fu, is this for me" Xia Qingyi took out a free hand, grabbed Miao Yingtian's shoulder, and asked with a smile:
"Otherwise, sit down and let's go."
With the appearance of this Garfield, Xia Qingyi's fear had already been thrown out of the clouds, kissing here, kissing there, or holding it in her arms and sucking it violently
"Little thing,What's your name?,You're my baby from today on.,What's the name for you?。。 You're so fat, it's okay to call you a bun. ”
Along the way, I only heard Xia Qingyi taking care of her relationship with the fat cat, and Miao Yingtian, who was sitting in front, had to tell her dotingly, don't move, beware of falling.
"No, there is a master, and he will definitely protect me, Baozi, don't you say, en?"
Hearing this, Miao Yingtian felt sentimental for a moment, and finally responded according to her meaning:
"Well, with the master here, no one will hurt you"
