Chapter 142: Residence
"Little junior brother, if you don't forgive your senior sister again, your senior sister will be sad and cry. Otherwise, how about I give you my most beloved treasure in order to compensate you? Shi Manzhu's smart eyes timidly glanced at the still gloomy face of the old man, and then gritted his teeth and stomped his feet, and said in pain.
Beloved baby? Lu Xuan's heart moved when he heard this, although this little senior sister looks very unreliable, she may be called a baby by her, it must be a good thing, right?
"If you really have that kind of mind, I'll laugh at it."
"Then we'll have to make a decision. The hook is hanged for a hundred years, and it is not allowed to change. Saying this, Shi Manzhu stretched out his little finger quite seriously.
It was the first time Lu Xuan had seen such a strange person, but he had to cooperate, after all, the so-called "baby" was waving at him with starry eyes! As long as you hook yourself with the little sister!
Thinking like this, Lu Xuan's little finger hooked up with Shi Manzhu's.
"Hehe, it's good that the little junior brother has forgiven me. I'm going to give you my baby, and you have to promise me to treat it well, to wipe it often, and not to treat it roughly. ”
Shi Manzhu's face showed a simple and clear smile, like a child who did not understand the world.
Under such a smile, Lu Xuan couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed, quite a bit of guilt of the old fritters scribbling on the white paper.
But compared with this mood, what he is looking forward to more is Shi Manzhu's so-called "baby".
"Okay, good, I'm sure to treat the baby well according to the meaning of Senior Sister, take it out quickly."
In this way, under Lu Xuan's earnest gaze, Shi Manzhu mysteriously took out a glittering object from the space ring.
When the light dissipated, the two gray things were held in Shi Manzhu's hands.
Lu Xuan opened his mouth and stammered, his head was full of black lines, and he was speechless for a while.
I saw that the so-called "baby" turned out to be a pair of dumbbells!
"This ...... Is that what you call a baby? Lu Xuan felt that his IQ was a little insufficient, and between him and Shi Manzhu, there must be one who was a fool.
Shi Manzhu's face was full of innocence, staring at the big clear and pitiful eyes and said, "Isn't this gift important enough?" It's my heart, and I use them every day to build my arm strength. ”
With these two little guys, what kind of arm strength can be practiced? Lu Xuan didn't care, the little girl in her heart was really a little girl, she was very squeamish, she used such a small dumbbell to exercise, if she also used them to exercise, wouldn't it be like her own macho image?
Thinking like this, he disdainfully took the pair of dumbbells from Shi Manzhu's hands, but at this moment, his face turned red like a freshly baked soldering iron.
Then I only heard a loud bang, and the whole thatched house couldn't help but tremble, Lu Xuan held the pair of dumbbells tightly, grabbed the ground with his head, and fell into the mud!
"Oh, junior brother, I'll just say that you are a weak chicken, you are still not convinced, now it's okay, I can't refute it." Shi Manzhu sighed as a young girl, looking angry.
Seeing this, Lu Xuan really wanted to pull her two braids and slap her two mouths firmly, so that she could see the sinister things of the world, but when she thought of that strange power, a bad chill surged in her heart.
After this episode, Lu Xuan focused his attention on Ji Laoba.
He can finally see that there is only one disciple under this master, Shi Manzhu, and no one else. This is simply unthinkable in the Academy of Enlightenment, because ten tutors recruit ten disciples every year, and ordinary monks are too busy with the cultivation resources in the academy to choose to repeat grades even when they graduate, so the grade system has lost its meaning to some extent, which has caused the academy to determine whether a monk can graduate or not to change, and only when he has reached a certain cultivation realm can he graduate, rather than judging by time and seniority.
Under such a mechanism, the students under the mentor are destined to accumulate more and more, but Ji Laoba has only one, which is enough to see how unpopular he is in the Academy of Enlightenment.
Ji Lao Ba kept gesturing, pointing one finger to Lu Xuan's head, and then pointing to the farm tools in the courtyard.
Lu Xuan was quite strange, is this old man's mouth white? Don't use sign language instead?
He looked at Shi Manzhu in confusion, and the latter smiled embarrassedly, his face flushed, as if he was embarrassed for his master.
"Master recently decided to quit hatred and ignorance, and he believes that any dispute between people starts with words, and evil comes from the mouth, so he decided to purify the six roots and stop talking."
"Huh? And this kind of talk? Lu Xuan felt that his three views were being refreshed, and he recalled in his mind the appearance of Ji Laoba coming out of the widow's door, and it was very painful to hold back his smile, it turned out that quitting seven emotions and six desires was also selective, "Then how does he usually express his meaning?" Relying on this unstructured sign language is definitely not possible, has he already practiced the great success method - transmitting sound into the secret? What do you rely on to understand him? ”
Shi Manzhu looked at him strangely for a long time, and then coldly popped out two words, "Guess." ”
“……”
Now there is a tricky question in front of Lu Xuan, that is, what does Ji Laoba want to express.
I saw Ji Laoba keep pointing his finger at Lu Xuan's head, and then pointed to those farm tools.
What does that mean? Lu Xuan was a little dumbfounded.
He looked at the little sister, who spread his hands and said that he could not do anything.
"Master, do you mean to let me hit these farm tools with my head?" Lu Xuan asked tentatively.
I saw that Ji Lao Ba'er didn't say a word, he grabbed Lu Xuan's body with his arm, and when he came to the huge grinding plate, he wanted to hit Lu Xuan's head up.
"Huh? Master, I'm joking. ”
Only then did Ji Laoba put Lu Xuan down.
Lu Xuan wiped off the cold sweat that had just broken out, if he hadn't stopped in time, his head would be no different from the fate of the ripe gourd.
"Does Master mean that I should remember these farm tools?"
Ji Laoba nodded.
Lu Xuan took a long breath, and then asked, "What's the use of remembering these agricultural tools?" ”
Ji Laoba moved his gaze to Shi Manzhu's body, the latter was stunned for a moment, then thought of something, and immediately ran back to the house, and when she ran out again, she was holding a stack of paper in her hand.
"That's what the master wants you to remember."
Lu Xuan took it curiously, flipped through it casually, and saw that it was written on the first page that the stone mill was pushed five hundred times......
"The first page is all about the morning warm-up, which you can call a morning exercise." Shi Manzhu said lightly, as if he didn't pay attention to these contents at all.
Ji Laoba nodded with satisfaction, patted Lu Xuan's shoulder, pointed at Shi Manzhu, and pointed at the pile of paper, without saying a word, and walked away.
"You may have misguessed what Master meant when you first arrived, so I can act as your interpreter." Shi Manzhu showed a sweet smile and said, "Little junior brother, senior sister is really boring to stay here, you came just in time, in the future, you will not only be my junior brother, but also my junior brother, whoever dares to bully you to death, I will stand up for you!" ”
Lu Xuan's smile was a little stiff, he subconsciously wanted to refuse, but when he thought of the iron fist of the little senior sister, he couldn't help but say what he wanted to say.
"Your task today is to familiarize yourself with the contents of these paper records, and start work officially tomorrow!"
"What does it mean to go to work? And why are you in such a hurry to arrange tasks, Master hasn't taught me anything, and I'm not familiar with the environment here. ”
"Hey, these questions you asked will be answered tomorrow, and you don't have to set aside time to do it when you are familiar with the environment, right? Jiming Village is so big, you will get familiar with it in a few days. Shi Manzhu waved his hand, "When the master is away, I will take full responsibility for training you, you have to remember to be obedient?" Otherwise, hehe. ”
Shi Manzhu laughed maliciously, and the knuckles of her fingers rattled.
Lu Xuan's heart tightened, and he immediately stood straight, and said with righteous words: "As long as it is ordered by the little senior sister, I, Lu Xuan, will not give up even if I go to the soup and fire!" ”
"Hehe, that's what it sounds like. Your master has already chosen your house, so I'll take you there. ”
Do you still need to choose the house?
Lu Xuan strangely followed the little sister, the latter ran and jumped all the way, the two pigtails were like two flying butterflies, moving between the ridges, the scene was beautiful. Lu Xuan followed behind her, and her heart couldn't help but be infected by her innocence, and she should be so comfortable with such beautiful natural scenery.
After walking for about ten minutes, the two of them had already walked out of Jiming Village and came to the edge of a cliff.
There was a thick mist under the cliff, which made it impossible to see what kind of existence it was underneath, and on the opposite side of this deep stream was a higher stone wall, looking up from Lu Xuan's angle, his neck was sore and he couldn't see where the peak of the towering stone wall was.
In such an environment with no end to the top and no bottom to the bottom, a beautifully arranged thatched house stands about a few hundred meters from the cliff. The thatched hut also has a small yard surrounded by a fence, and the garden has been turned up with a plough to grow all kinds of herb flowers.
"When Master heard that you were coming, he made a thatched hut for you. What do you think? Impressed? I don't have that kind of treatment. Shi Manzhu pretended to be sour.
When Lu Xuan heard this, the bearded face of the old man appeared in his heart, and a touch of warmth couldn't help but appear in his heart.
It stands to reason that there can be no affection between Jiming Village, which he just arrived today, and Ji Laoba. And the reason why Ji Laoba is like this to himself is completely for the sake of being his apprentice.
treats the apprentice so carefully, it must be very comfortable to get along with him.
It's just that practicing this kind of thing is, of course, choosing a good teacher and following it, and Ji Laoba's behavior can be regarded as a kind elder at best, and it can't be judged whether he is a good teacher or not.
Lu Xuan couldn't help but worry about the future.
