Chapter 124: The New Year's Pass
East Penglai Island in the west, somewhere on a mountain road.
A young scholar dressed in a coarse cloth jacket walked slowly with a bamboo cane.
Beside him, followed by a girl in Tsing Yi.
The girl looked no more than eight or nine years old, her face was thin and small, and her eyes were a little divergent, and she looked dull.
She was also carrying a large bookcase, which was about to overwhelm her whole person.
However, she did not walk slowly, no matter whether the young scholar in the cloth dress was fast or slow, she could always keep up with it.
"Little book, are you tired, do you want to give me the bookcase?" The young scholar turned around, saw the little girl's appearance, and spoke lovingly.
The thin face of the girl in Tsing Yi showed a big smile, shook her head and said, "Sir, no, I'm not tired at all, I can carry it." ”
As she spoke, she wiped the sweat on her forehead with her sleeve, and the moment the sleeve fell, a few cyan scales faintly flashed on her forehead.
Seeing that she refused, the young scholar was not reluctant, and said: "When you climb to the mountain pass, I will take you to the Xiwang Xianjia ferry in the wind, not because I am afraid that you will be tired, but no matter how late it is, I may not be able to catch up with the last cross-sea teleportation array back to Beizhigezhou." ”
The girl in Tsing Yi sighed, which was a response to her husband.
Then the eyes continued to diverge, and they returned to their dull appearance.
The young scholar knew the character of his apprentice, and he didn't care about her appearance, and continued to climb the mountain.
However, he hadn't climbed a few steps before the girl in Tsing Yi behind him spoke: "Sir, won't the master be very strict, I'm so stupid and have poor understanding, the master won't want me, right?" ”
The young scholar in the cloth robe showed a warm smile when he heard this, and said, "Don't worry, since the master has accepted you, then you are already a disciple of Tingxiyuan." ”
"Your master and his old man are usually a little serious, and his studies are also rigorous, but that's for us, you are a disciple, and the world says that he will like you from generation to generation."
Speaking of this, the young scholar suddenly thought of some things in the past, and said with a deeper smile: "Even if you make a mistake, the old man will punish you, and with your master here, you don't have to be afraid." ”
The divergent eyes of the girl in Tsing Yi became a little clearer, and she asked, "Sir, is the master really as powerful as the newspapers of the major immortal mansions say?" was able to contribute to the correction of heaven and earth with the body of a realm - how did he read the book? ”
The young scholar asked, "What, are you looking forward to meeting the master?" ”
The girl in Tsing Yi nodded like a chicken pecking rice: "Well, I never thought that 'Hanshan Li Xiangyi' would become my master." ”
"The first time I was in the teahouse in the town, when I heard the old storyteller, when he mentioned the matter of heaven and earth, I was still thinking about when to go to Beizhi Gezhou, and take a look at this Hanshan Li Xiangyi, but it is too far from Qinghu Town to Beizhi Gezhou, and it is separated by a sea, and I can't go with low mana."
"I didn't expect to meet Mr. soon."
The young scholar looked at the girl in Tsing Yi with admiration on his face, and said with a smile: "Your master uncle is naturally very powerful, as for how he reads, when you go to the academy and see the master uncle, you will naturally know." ”
The girl in Tsing Yi sighed, and she was looking forward to going to Beizhige Zhou, and she didn't feel tired at all when she climbed up the mountain road.
The young scholar couldn't help but continue: "Your third uncle and junior uncle are also very cute, and when you get to the academy, you should like them." ”
The girl in Tsing Yi could only "wake up" from her eyes divergent again, her expression was in a daze, and she said, "Sir, you seem to have said that the third uncle doesn't like to read?" ”
The young scholar replied: "Yes, because of this, your master is very strict with her, but your master just wants her to read more books and define her temperament, not really want her to read anything famous." ”
"After all, your third uncle inherited your master's gun path, so it doesn't matter if you read less books."
The girl in Tsing Yi asked curiously, "Sir, is my master's gun path very powerful?" ”
The young scholar said without thinking: "Your master is a female martial god, and the family inheritance of the Heavenly Martial Arts has swept all directions, if it is not for marrying into the Hanshan Academy, when ranking the strongest female martial arts god today, you should have a seat in your master's mother-in-law." ”
"Even if she hasn't done it for decades, in the eyes of those saints, sword immortals, and martial gods who know about it, no one dares to underestimate her old man."
The girl in Tsing Yi thought about the situation that her husband said, and felt that her mother-in-law was still quite powerful.
But she couldn't help but have a question.
The young scholar saw her strangeness and asked, "What's wrong?" ”
The girl in Tsing Yi threw out her question: "Sir, the master is a female martial god, and the master is a great sage of literature and Taoism, so who is more powerful between the two of them?" ”
The young scholar was asked, and was stunned for a moment before replying: "Maybe the master is a little more powerful?" Because every time something goes wrong, for example, when your master wants to punish your master, as long as the master speaks, Mr. can only back down and give up. ”
The girl in Tsing Yi felt her husband's words and answered, but it seemed that something was missing.
In the end, she didn't think about it, after all, she was just a little green carp in Qinghu Town, she had only read a few books, and she couldn't figure out many things.
When the young scholar saw the reaction of the girl in Tsing Yi, he was stunned for a while, and did not discuss this issue again.
Although there is no one else here, and it is thousands of miles away from Hanshan Academy, it is always a little out of line to talk about Mr. and Master behind his back.
This young scholar who cares about Mr. Tingxiyuan, his wife, senior brothers, and his sisters is the second disciple of Tingxiyuan, Li Xiangyan's second junior brother Yu Dubai.
The New Year is approaching, and he is also leading his newly recruited disciples to return to Hanshan Academy.
The girl in Tsing Yi was originally Qinghu Town, Dongping Country, Dongpenglaizhou, a little green carp who loved to read.
At this time, the master and apprentice were preparing to go to the westernmost point of Dongpenglai Continent to the Xiwang Xianjia Ferry, so that they could take the cross-continent teleportation array and return to Beizhige Continent.
Seeing that she was about to reach the top of the mountain, before Mr. took her to fly against the wind, Yu Xishu, a girl in Tsing Yi, hurriedly asked: "Sir, you haven't said that Uncle Qianjun is really born with sword grass?" I read that many Xianjiadi newspapers say that Uncle Qianjun, who worshiped the Wind and Snow Cliff, may become the first person in the future of swordsmanship. ”
Because East Penglai Continent is a kendo continent, it is particularly concerned about kendo-related matters, although Xiao Qianjun is not famous in Beizhi Gezhou, not many people pay attention to it, but in East Penglai Continent, it has already caused a lot of discussions, almost all the Xianjiadi newspapers that can be said to be famous have reported this little girl in a green skirt who was born in Hanshan Academy, but "switched" to Fengxue Cliff.
The fact that she is for the sword grass has long been spread.
Yu Dubai replied kindly: "Whether your little uncle Qianjun was born with sword grass or not, I don't know very well as a teacher, when Mr. and Senior Brother picked her up from the back mountain, except for the leaf mark on her forehead, there was no other special place. ”
"Because she is too young and has not officially cultivated, she has not shown any talent in kendo on weekdays."
"But since everyone said so, and was personally brought up the mountain by the wind and snow cliff Ye Guiren, it should be almost the same."
The girl in Tsing Yi nodded, and her stunned face showed a few satisfied looks.
Yu Dubai looked a little strange and asked, "What's wrong?" ”
The girl in Tsing Yi replied: "Sir, Uncle Master and Uncle Qianjun are so powerful, so I don't need to cultivate, and no one will dare to bully me in the future?" ”
Yu Dubai was once again speechless by his own apprentice's words.
But when I think about the little green carp covered in mud and ugliness when I first met Qinghu Town, it seems that this little guy would say this, isn't it strange?
After all, she doesn't seem to be very "smart", and it is good to be able to rely on the momentum of the master and the little uncle, and it is good to be well in her life.
In the end, he said: "If you don't cultivate or not, you still need to read books well, your master likes people who love to read the most, and your little uncle Qianjun listens to your master the most." ”
The girl in Tsing Yi nodded again, and with the big bookcase behind her, she replied: "I will study seriously, and I will definitely make Uncle Master and Uncle Qianjun like me." ”
Yu Dubai held his forehead with his hands, a little sad.
If nothing else, this little guy should be the first disciple of the third generation of Tingxiyuan in Hanshan Academy, and he is a senior sister, so not "smart", is it really good to take him back to the mountain?
Since he accepted her, Mr. should not not accept it, but Mr. may have an opinion on his indiscriminate acceptance of apprentices.
I hope that the senior brother can also return to the mountain for the New Year, so that the gentleman can punish him and help dissuade him.
Thinking of this, the young scholar in a cloth shirt couldn't help but look back at the southwest sky.
The girl in Tsing Yi didn't know what she said, which made her husband worried, and she still followed behind her husband unhurriedly.
Soon the master and apprentice came to the top of the mountain road, and Yu Dubai followed what he had said before, harnessed the breeze, and took the girl in Tsing Yi to the Xianjia ferry in front.
……
North stop Gezhou, Zhongyu, Hanshan Academy.
Because it was approaching Chinese New Year's Eve, most of the disciples of Hanshan Academy had gone home for the New Year, and the upper and lower courtyards that had been lively in the past were suddenly much deserted.
In Tingxi Garden, Qiu Yiyi, dressed in yellow, was sweeping the floor with a mop.
She had been sweeping all morning, a layer of fine beads of sweat appeared on her forehead, and she secretly glanced at the old man who was reading in the backyard study, but she didn't dare to be lazy.
She swept the floor weakly, and the tempting aroma of food wafting from the kitchen made her feel that the broom in her hand was the most hateful thing in the world.
Obviously, a dust cleaning technique can make the entire garden clean as a wash, but Mr. has to sweep it by hand, and she is not allowed to use the "autumn wind sweeping the fallen leaves" marksmanship, otherwise she can clean up the entire Tingxi Garden with ten breaths at most.
The second senior brother went on a study tour.
The elder brother has not returned the gift.
Xiao Qianjun went to the Wind and Snow Cliff.
Only she was left in Hanshan Academy, she couldn't go anywhere, she had to do any work, it was too unfair.
"Sweep quickly, what are you going to do? I can't finish sweeping it in a quarter of an hour, and I'm not allowed to eat today! In the backyard study, there was a familiar and serious voice.
Qiu Yi's mouth pursed, and he was very unhappy, but he didn't dare to disobey, so he had to continue to sweep again and again.
Suddenly, she ran to the kitchen with a broom on her back.
Wu Ying, the teacher, was wearing an apron and was busy in the kitchen, and when she heard the movement, she asked without looking back: "Bang, have you finished sweeping the ground?" ”
Qiu Yiyi secretly swept out a spear with a broom, bringing a light breeze to blow away a few fallen leaves in the court.
At the same time, he said: "After sweeping, Senior Sister, Senior Brother, Second Senior Brother, and Xiao Qianjun, will they really come back for the New Year?" ”
Senior sister Wu Ying replied: "Xiao Qianjun and your second senior brother have sent letters back in advance, they should be back to the meeting, as for your senior brother, there is no letter, but if you are free, you should be the same." ”
Qiu Yi said: "I remember that Xiao Qianjun said in her letter that the people of the wind and snow cliff will escort her back to the mountain?" The day should be almost up. ”
"Ye Guiren is the first genius of contemporary Jiuzhou, and now he has taken that step and become the youngest Great Sword Immortal."
"It's not rude for her to visit our Hanshan Academy for the first time, shouldn't she send someone to greet her?"
Wu Ying put down the spatula in her hand, turned around and said, "Do you want to go down the mountain to meet her?" I'm afraid I'm dragging the ground and want to be lazy, right? ”
was dotted by Shi Niang, and Qiu Qian did not hide it, and said coquettishly: "Shi Niang, in the past few days, I have scrubbed Tingxi Garden from the inside to the outside according to Mr. Niang's request, and all the dishes and chopsticks, tables and chairs, doors and windows and other things have also been cleaned, and the couplets and blessing characters have been pasted before and after. ”
"Master, all the work is done, I miss Xiao Qianjun a little, I want to pick her up at the bottom of the mountain, and by the way, welcome Ye Guiren, can you go and talk to Mr."
Looking at the girl who has been busy for the past few days and has not stopped for a moment, Wu Ying couldn't help but feel a little distressed, and said softly: "Go if you want, I'll help you go there, sir." ”
"However, you should never be lazy in the future, if you really don't want to practice guns, then study hard, so that the old man will not punish you."
Qiu Yiyi was instantly overjoyed when he heard this, rushed up and hugged Wu Ying and kissed him, and said with a smile: "I know that my sister is the best, I will listen to my mother's words, and promise that I will never be lazy again after the New Year!" ”
"What about gun practice and reading?"
"Master, I'd better practice guns, I think reading is 10,000 times harder than practicing guns. I don't want to study, and besides, there is a senior brother and a second senior brother, and I don't need to take over the mantle of Mr., so I'd better follow Shi Niang to practice guns, and become an invincible female martial god like Shi Niang in the future! ”
After saying this, Qiu Qiyu turned into a yellow shadow and rushed down the mountain, forgetting to take out the broom from the kitchen.
Looking at her back as she moved away at great speed, Wu Ying shook her head lovingly, then took the broom back to the yard and walked to the backyard study.
Zhou Lengxi, who was in front of the desk, put down the books and asked, "That girl ran away?" ”
Wu Ying replied: "Run, don't force her too hard, after all, she is only sixteen years old and she is still a child." ”
Zhou Lengxi was a little dissatisfied: "When you were sixteen years old, you were already a martial artist in the Seven Realms, being small is not an excuse, she is just too lazy, and she can't become a big weapon if she doesn't force her." ”
