Chapter 59: Cousin of the Ye Family
Ye Xiucheng has experienced a lot since he arrived in Xixia Sect, first Master Chen Deng suddenly disappeared, and the nominal master ignored him.
Fortunately, someone from the family came in time, and after knowing his recent situation, he went back and fetched a lot of silver for him, and he got through the relationship with the deacon, so he reluctantly got the robe and waist card of the outer disciples, and did not have to do miscellaneous labor.
But because he has a master in the foundation building period, the Gongfa sect did not give it separately, it seems that Chen Deng needs to teach it, although the people from the family told him about Chen Deng, he can't tell the deacon that the master died in his own home, right? So he was just a nominal disciple.
Later, the nominal ancestor seemed to have offended some big man outside, and the sect spent spirit stones to redeem people, and the nominal ancestor somehow remembered him, but it was not a good thing for him.
I heard that his master, who died in his own home, was refined by his ancestor and tortured in the end.
And he was also disliked by his master and sent to the miscellaneous labor station, but because of his status as an outer disciple, his main task was only to take care of the death row.
There is no practice of exercises, and he is responsible for sprinkling and cooking on death row every day, which is actually no different from miscellaneous servants, and even worse, some miscellaneous servants can get the exercises, but most of the miscellaneous servants are not qualified, and they may not be able to successfully forge the body when they get the exercises.
Chen Deng's affairs, the exclusion of his brothers and sisters, and the secret ridicule of the miscellaneous disciples made this thirteen-year-old boy's personality change a lot, and he was not as naΓ―ve and ignorant as he was at the beginning, and he no longer trusted others easily.
He became much more gloomy.
The deacon in charge of the cell explained that he didn't need to be too good to the long-term resident on death row, and he could eat perfunctory every day, and his words were more tactful, but the meaning was already very clear, that is, he couldn't be good to him, he didn't deliberately do it, after all, no one was watching, and although the old man in the prison liked to brag, he felt that the old man had no ill will towards him.
Fortunately, there is no end to the road, and this chattering old man on death row, because he didn't add stones to the porridge, taught him a set of exercises.
And according to his secret visit, this old man is really a big man in the sect, but the old man said that he was the former head, and he didn't believe it very much.
His qualifications are actually really good, and under the guidance of the old man, he quickly succeeded in reaching the second order of forging body.
On this day, he got up early in the morning as usual, and went to the stove to get food, for he had made some money, and had recently improved his food, so he added his own food to the old man's food box, and sent it over.
The old man was boxing when he ate, and the old man pointed out a few words to him from time to time, and asked him about the current situation of the Xixia Sect by the way.
As an outlying disciple of the Forging Period, he didn't know much, but he still inquired through the people in the stove room.
I heard that the money bag in the sect went to the Xiaoxiao Villa with the head of the Law Enforcement Hall, and many deacons and disciples followed, and even the sect master went there, and sent a lot of good things before and after, and I don't know whether this attachment is good or bad.
The old man's mood has obviously been a little irritable recently, he is afraid, he is afraid that the Xixia Sect will not be the Xixia Sect in the future, but he has nothing to do, who made him just a prisoner now.
After delivering the old man's meal, Ye Xiucheng had to take a few handymen to sweep the mountain gate today.
He cleaned up and went straight to the mountain gate, where there were already four handymen with five brooms waiting.
As an outer disciple, he could also choose to sit on the side and watch these handymen clean, but he didn't do so, because the handymen had the eyeliner of the senior brother who excluded him, and it was easy for the senior brother to leave a reason to trouble him; Second, it is not a bad thing to work more during the forging period.
He was sweeping the stone steps down the hill when a familiar voice came from his ears.
"Uncle, you don't have to be polite, don't look at me as not big, I have a lot of strength."
As soon as he raised his eyes, he saw a girl who was as tall as himself was wearing a light blue suit, holding a large frame in one hand, walking in front like a fly, and the one who was chasing behind him with a flat shoulder was one of the mountain people who delivered vegetables to the stove room on weekdays, as if his surname was Wu, and everyone called him Old Man Wu.
The girl in front of her eyebrows is like a distant dai, a pair of star-like eyes are particularly dazzling, her lips are red and her teeth are white, her face is like a bright moon, and she has a little baby fat on her face, and her posture is slender, but her body is already a lot taller.
Ye Xiucheng remembered that two months ago, she only reached her chest, but now she was as tall as herself, and she suddenly had a feeling that she had not recognized the wrong person.
Ye Xiaoxiao has been living in a simple house at home, and his brother and sister are not close, because when she was snubbed and excluded by the family, he did not help, and later the matter of the white porcelain doll, he also went to Xixia Sect to know the truth, at that time, his mother only told him that he and his master had discussed a solution, and he was not entangled later, so he hurriedly came to Xixia Sect, but he didn't expect his mother to almost take Ye Xiaoxiao's life in order to save herself.
Fortunately, my father wrote that the cousin had ended up following the immortal.
Now look at the oncoming girl, her steps are light, her breath is long, it seems that she has a good master, but she doesn't know how much she has cultivated now.
Just looking at the ease with which she carries two large boxes of dishes, she thinks that she is much taller than herself. Those two baskets of vegetables and grain are less than 120 catties, and he can lift them at will now, but he can't do it so lightly.
was hesitating to say hello, but saw the girl put down the box in front of the mountain gate, and the two handymen saw the old man Wu, so they stepped forward to pick up the vegetables.
The handyman recorded the account for Old Man Wu, Old Man Wu nodded and thanked him with a smile, but Tang Xiao on the side was not happy.
"I said uncle, I have proposed such a long way to you, how can you thank him and not thank me?"
Old man Wu thought in his heart, my job this day was to deliver a dish, come slowly and come back slowly, you are in a hurry to send me something, I chased my legs and feet are still trembling, I will go back so early in a while, I have to do other work, I thank you for a ghost!
But this girl looked like a monk, and he could only say with a sincere face:
"Where the words! Old man, I thank you in my heart, girl, you are tight, you have helped a lot! β
Tang Xiao had a small net pocket woven around his waist with a beautiful brocade rope, and a small white stone was tightly wrapped in it, yes, it was the strong and honest stone.
At this moment, the function of the stone was to let him see the overlapping faces floating on the old man's face, and said his heart with an angry face:
ββ¦β¦ I thank you for being a ghost! β
She scratched her head, no wonder she didn't give a thank you value, blamed herself for doing it quickly, seeing that he was struggling, he started directly, sloppy and sloppy, obviously when he refused at the beginning, he said in his heart that "such a good-looking little girl, I can't resist my hands at a glance", and I thought that this thank you value was stable.
Tang Xiao pursed his lips and said helplessly:
"Okay! Then old man, go back slowly, the mountain road is not easy to walk, don't fall. β
Old man Wu smiled all over his face, nodded his goodbye, and left the way he came, not knowing whether he planned to go home directly, or find a place to fish and rest.
Tang Xiao turned around and saw the young man standing next to the steps with a broom, the young man had clear eyebrows, a relatively thin body, and a faint bookish anger.
stepped forward and said with the appearance of an old god:
"This little brother, I see that you are worried between your eyebrows, what is unhappy, say it to make me happy...... Phew, say it and let me help you with it! Don't look at me like this, I'm used to solving people's problems! β
Ye Xiucheng was slightly stunned, was Ye Xiaoxiao's character like this? No, is she being sarcastic about her situation?!
Although he was not very happy and a little embarrassed, after all, he couldn't stand her first, so he could only say with a strained face:
"No, although I am doing the work of sprinkling and sweeping here, I am still an outer disciple, and I don't need your special help."
She couldn't hear anything else when the other side wasn't lying, but there was something clearly wrong with the boy's words and tone.
Tang Xiao tilted her head suspiciously and looked at him carefully, as if she had a little familiar feeling, but the person she couldn't remember from the memory of the Jindan period should have never seen it, she asked suspiciously:
"Have we met?"
Ye Xiucheng frowned:
"Haven't seen it?"
"Seen?"
"I haven't seen it."
Ye Xiucheng was a little annoyed and stopped paying attention to her, and began to sweep his steps.
Tang Xiao became curious, originally he just wanted to start from the grassroots level of the Xixia Sect to inspect this subordinate sect, and by the way, he casually helped some people who were pleasing to the eye to get some thanks, how did he meet a strange tsundere boy when he came?
So I casually threw an identification technique in the past.
ββ
Ye Xiucheng, male, thirteen years old, second-order forging body, second-order son of the Ye family in Tianque City.
Ye Xiaoxiao's cousin.
Outer disciple of the Xixia Sect.
Qualifications are acceptable.
ββ
Without further identification, Tang Xiao had already suddenly realized, it turned out to be his cousin, Xie Wanying and Xiao Zhong had stayed with the master to recuperate and upgrade, if she was there, it was estimated that she would report to herself at first sight.
Yes, yes, he was taken to Xixia Sect at the beginning, and Ye Peng sent someone to find him.
It seems that he was not implicated in the death of the white-faced monk, and successfully entered the Xixia Sect.
She coughed to hide her embarrassment, but after thinking about it, is it easier to know about this sect with acquaintances?
So he stepped forward and snatched Ye Xiucheng's broom, and said solemnly:
"Cousin, you can't be so unstintable! Tell me if you're sorry for me first? β
Ye Xiucheng exerted strength in his hand holding the broom, but the broom did not move in Tang Xiao's hand, and he sighed:
"Well, it's my fault first, and I've affected you, you say, I came to Xixia Sect to seek revenge?"
"Huh? It's a family, and I'm not dead, and I'm living quite well now, looking for revenge. β
I also have to thank you for giving me a five-grade magic weapon, Tang Xiao added in his heart.
Ye Xiucheng was slightly stunned, then glanced at the miscellaneous servants who were always floating over not far away, pulled Tang Xiao away, and then asked:
"What the hell is the matter with you? Let's get straight ahead!
I'm not very good at mixing right now, but as long as I can do it, I'll do my best to do it for you.
Let's say it first, I can't do anything that endangers the sect, I swore when I started. β
Tang Xiao blinked, it seemed to be the truth, but he didn't expect that Ye Xiucheng's personality was quite different from his mother, and he thought he was just a troublemaker.
"My master has been pressing too schoolwork recently, I slipped out to hide, and I don't know other monks, your Xixia Sect looks quite suitable to hide for a while."
"Shhhh Don't talk nonsense! Where is the Xixia Sect mine! I'm just an outer disciple! β
Ye Xiucheng interrupted.
Tang Xiao blinked, nodded, and then asked in a low voice:
"Can you take me in for a few days?"
Ye Xiucheng rubbed his eyebrows with a headache.
"Others want such a master yet, you are still tired and escaped, okay! You stay away first, I'll go back and prepare, bring you out the clothes of the handyman, and then you follow me in." β
"Uh-huh!"
Tang Xiao nodded happily.
Bai Buyan, who was far away in Yufeng Mountain, was studying how to make a book of instrument spirit exercises for Xiao Zhong, and suddenly sneezed.
β¦β¦
Tang Xiao dressed up as a handyman, followed Ye Xiucheng into the outer gate of the Xixia Sect, and came to a very remote residence.
"This small courtyard is usually just me, no one will come, if you want to go out, you can only wait for me to be free, don't run around alone on weekdays, so as not to be discovered."
"Uh-huh."
Tang Xiao nodded, and Yu Guang saw that a figure that had been following them quietly retreated.
Looks like a handyman, so there shouldn't be any handyman here who knows me, right? I've only seen Yue Guanshan and two elders and a few deacons...... Staring at the little brother of the Ye family!
She walked around Ye Xiucheng's small courtyard twice with great interest, the yard was almost the same as the small courtyard of the farmhouse, there was a crude prohibition protection, and a few medicinal herbs needed for the forging period were planted in the yard, although the quality of the herbs was unsatisfactory, but the care was not bad.
These herbs are not uncommon on Doll Mountain, she played with her heart, and casually opened the prohibition set by Ye Xiucheng, and then went in to pick and choose the herbs for a while.
"This can be used as a sachet, and this night can be added to the stir-fry, ah this is useless, how does this look like a weed."
She commented on it while pulling out the herbs, Ye Xiucheng on the side clenched his toes, his little face was visibly red, and he was angry at first glance, the deacon of the herb hall didn't give him the medicinal materials he wanted, and he said that it was sold out, which he took a lot of effort to find it in the mountains by himself, and took care of it for more than a month to develop such an appearance, and was pulled back by Ye Xiaoxiao's little hand as if he was choosing vegetables, and all of them suffered in a blink of an eye.
This girl is really here to get revenge on him!
He was depressed, but he couldn't attack her, so he could only say with a gloomy expression:
"Come out when you're done, there are still some vegetable seeds in it that haven't sprouted."
After saying that, he turned around and went into the house, thinking about how to get the old man to teach him more powerful prohibitions, so that his medicine would not suffer again in the future.
Thinking that he couldn't sleep at night in the next few days, and could only go to the mountains to find medicinal herbs again, he was extremely depressed, it seemed that Ye Xiaoxiao would make trouble for himself later, so he had to keep an eye on her, hoping that she would leave obediently after staying for a few days, otherwise he could only find a way to get her out again.
Tang Xiao stood in the courtyard, looking curiously at the embarrassed back of this young man, remembering that Ye Peng, who was the only one who smiled well at Ye Xiao, couldn't help but sigh.
β¦β¦
At this time, outside a cave at the inner gate, a pock-faced young man dressed as a miscellaneous servant was standing respectfully in front of a monk in the condensation period.
This person is a newly accepted disciple of the Lianfeng Daoist, although he has not yet built a foundation, but his qualifications are good, and he is very good at doing things, and he is very filial to the Lianfeng Daoist.
Because Chen Deng's Lianfeng Daoist's status in the sect has dropped a lot, the Lianfeng Daoist doesn't like to see Ye Xiucheng very much, so this new apprentice and the deacon under the Lianfeng Daoist gave Ye Xiucheng a lot of small shoes to wear.
"Really?"
"The little one followed all the way, and he did lead the people to his own small courtyard."
The Qi Condensing Cultivator narrowed his eyes slightly, and the corners of his mouth hooked into a smile:
"It's just a matter of secretly improving the food for the one in the dungeon, and now he dares to secretly lead outsiders into the sect, does he think this is his family? Just an outer disciple. β
As he spoke, he turned to look at Deacon Tsuki, who was beside him:
"Senior Brother Song, the outer disciples brought people into the mountain without permission, can you expel him out?"
"It's not enough, it depends on the origin of the people he brings, if it's the Gu clan or someone related to the demon clan right now, hum."
"Hmph, then the person he brought must be one of the two."
