The little earth dragon climbed to the roof of the Jingsi Building, and looked out from the mountain, the pavilions and pavilions of the Sword Sect that stretched for dozens of miles were scattered, like a fairyland on earth. A small figure quietly fell behind the little earth dragon, looking at the little earth dragon seemed to be different from usual, the little age seemed to have a trace of sadness, do you miss your aunt?

The boy in white wanted to ask, but Hu Yan Wan'er's name was on his lips, but he couldn't make a sound.

The little earth dragon held a flower in his hand that could not be named, and picked the petals one by one, and was muttering softly in his mouth, but the boy in white couldn't really hear it.

Suddenly, the boy in white said "hi", and the sneaky little earth dragon was suddenly shocked, hid the flowers behind him, turned around, and saw the boy in white smiling cheaply, angry, and just about to blame the boy in white, his feet slipped and fell heavily from the meditation building.

"Bang" fell heavily, grinning in pain, just about to get up and scold the white-clothed boy on the roof, I saw a pair of little feet standing in front of him, as soon as he looked up, sure enough, Guan Tong covered his mouth and chuckled, looking at the little earth dragon who fell and ate dog feces was very happy.

The little earth dragon blushed slightly, turned his head and ran, holding a flower tightly in his hand.

Dressed in white, he held Guan Tong's little hand and said with a smile: "Stop, little earth dragon." ”

The shyness on Xiao Dilong's face was hidden by his dark cheeks, but where did he escape Zhu Ziqi's fiery eyes, and he was seen through at once.

The little earth dragon stood up like a wooden man, and turned around, and Guan Tong seemed to hear the "creaking" sound of bone joints.

Xiao Dilong has a little fear of Zhu Ziqi, she is a woman who is afraid of even the master, she is naturally afraid to death, if one day she really becomes a teacher, then how can she be good? Xiao Dilong thinks that Di Lidal is good, how gentle he is to himself, not like Zhu Ziqi who is dressed in white, at first glance he is a princess who is high above, and he is just a small miscellaneous person in the small inn of the North Mastiff, where dare to talk to the princess.

Zhu Ziqi saw the uncomfortable little earth dragon, and smiled slightly: "What, I can eat people?"

The little earth dragon shook his head.

Zhu Ziqi smiled and said, "Then why are you so afraid of me?"

Where did Xiao Dilong dare to tell a lie, and said bluntly: "Master is afraid of you, and I am naturally even more afraid of you." ”

Hearing this, Zhu Ziqi couldn't help but wonder, how many bad things did the surnamed Xu say about me, so that others misunderstood that I was a dominatrix, and it seemed that he had to settle the score.

Guan Tong looked at the nervous little earth dragon and asked, "What is hidden behind you, take it out and take a look." ”

The little earth dragon shook his head.

The boy in white faintly discovered the secret of the little earth dragon, it turned out that he had reached the age of Sichun, and his vision was not bad, this little girl was a beautiful embryo.

Zhu Ziqi said softly: "Let's go, let's go to see your master together." ”

Xiao Dilong was stunned, could it be that he said something wrong, and the master wanted to sue in front of the master?

Where did Zhu Ziqi know the chaotic thoughts in the heart of the young little Dilong, and led Guan Tong to leave first, the sweat of the little Dilong's palms soaked the nameless flowers, and when Guan Tong was more than 20 steps away from him, he carefully hid the nameless flowers in his sleeve pockets, followed the master with a cigarette, and entered the house with his head down.

Xu Tianran gently closed the yellowed poetry collection, and saw Zhu Ziqi leading Guan Tong to come, and said softly: "Guan Tong is here." The little earth dragon is also here. ”

Xiao Dilong and the master are not familiar with each other, or a little stage fright, although along the way I know that the master looks down on the face of the hanger, but the heart and eyes are very good, although he has not taught himself, but along the way the master did the best teachings, so that he knows how to be a man who stands up to the sky.

Zhu Ziqi left the house immediately, and he was not in place, making the master and apprentice feel uncomfortable.

Xu Tianran beckoned and asked the little earth dragon to come over.

The little earth dragon twisted and walked over, Xu Tianran felt strange, the little earth dragon usually doesn't talk much, but it won't be twisted like this today, is there something that can't be done?

Xiao Dilong came to the bed, and Xu Tianran smiled: "Move out the vermilion wooden box under the bed." ”

The little earth dragon did it one by one.

Xu Tianran let the little earth dragon open.

Xiao Dilong opened the vermilion wooden box, only to see that there were two ebony scabbards inside, and the hilts of the swords turned out to be two bamboo knives. The scabbard is jet black sandalwood, exuding bursts of sandalwood's unique fragrance, the handle is a verdant bamboo handle, Huyan Dilong has never seen such a verdant green bamboo like jade, a burst of ecstasy in his heart, thinking that this is the bamboo knife made by the master for himself, he can't bear the joy in his heart, just wait for the master to give an order, pull out the bamboo knife himself, and practice a peerless knife technique.

Guan Tong still looks indifferent, and his heart is not as ecstatic as Huyan Dilong, maybe this is the difference between women and men, men love to dance with guns and sticks, but women are not interested, if it is rouge gouache, I'm afraid Guan Tong will look at it twice.

Xu Tianran smiled and said: "The bamboo knife is made for the master himself, and the scabbard is made by your master and mother herself, which can be regarded as a meeting gift from the master and the master." ”

Xiao Dilong couldn't wait to pick up the bamboo knife, gently pulled out, the bamboo knife was emerald green, as if it was not an ordinary bamboo, and suddenly found that the bamboo knife was heavier than he expected, about heavier than the steel knife, pulled out the bamboo knife and waved it a few times, blowing a gust of knife wind, like a chivalrous man.

Guan Tong looked at Xu Tianran with a vigilant face, offering nothing to be courteous, either a traitor or a thief.

Xu Tianran was amused by Xiao Guan Tong's expression, this girl is not very old, and she is not very vigilant, so she shook her head helplessly and said, "Guan Tong, you don't like bamboo knives?"

Guan Tong shook his head and wondered, "Why did you give me a bamboo knife, what are your intentions?"

Xu Tianran smiled: "There is a little bit of an attempt, are you willing to worship me as a teacher?"

Guan Tong is not as disgusted with Xu Tianran as she was at the beginning, she knows that the boy in the green shirt who looks at her is really a man who stands up to the sky, but she doesn't want to worship him as a teacher, in Guan Tong's heart, the master who taught him to read and write since he was a child is at least middle-aged, so that he can have the appearance of a husband or master. The person surnamed Xu in front of him is not a few years older than himself, and if he is bullied and asks his master to come out, he doesn't seem to have any aura and can't hold back.

Xu Tianran understood the messy thoughts in Guan Tong's heart, he was really speechless, these days, the child's mind is so complicated? However, when he remembered that when he first saw Lao Bai when he was a child, he didn't seem to be much more pleasing than Guan Tong, and now he found that Lao Bai's temper seems to be very good, if he was afraid that he would have pulled up and beaten himself when he was a child, in order to relieve the hatred in his heart.

Xu Tianran straightened his chest, took out a majestic posture and said: "Don't look at the master's age, but the ability is not small, with the master in one day, no one can bully you, but the premise is that we take care of it, and the master will be able to protect you with dignity." ”

Guan Tong muttered in his heart, is it difficult for this surnamed Xu to be able to see through people's hearts, he knows everything I think in my heart, so if he has a surname Xu in his heart, will he be angry?

Xu Tianran smiled: "No." ”

Guan Tong was shocked, his forehead was dripping, it was terrible that he could really read people's hearts, if he really worshipped such a master, wouldn't he have no privacy at all.

Xu Tianran smiled slightly: "From now on, Master will never read your heart, why?"

Huyan Dilong saw Guan Tong looking at the master with a strange expression, and the master was talking to himself inexplicably, they were really two weirdos.

Guan Tong asked, "Can't you not apprentice?"

Xu Tianran thought for a while, "It's okay." ”

As soon as these words came out, I didn't expect Xiao Dilong to be anxious, and said: "Guan Tong, the master is very good, why don't you apprentice?"

Guan Tong said with a cold face: "It's because of the good of others that I can't apprentice, my father is gone, I just learned not to rely on others, I can live on my own, if I rely on you again in the future, and you leave again, then what should I do?"

Guan Tong's words made Zhu Ziqi at the door cry, a little girl who was only eleven years old was afraid that others would treat her well, afraid of losing this dependence again, how afraid she was of believing in people again, how afraid of losing the tenderness of this world again.

Xiao Dilong said anxiously: "Master won't leave, he will always be there, besides, even if Master leaves, there is still me, the senior brother." ”

Guan Tong glanced at the dark-skinned little earthworm in front of him with disdain, "Why are you a senior brother?"

Xu Tianran coughed lightly a few times, it should have been a happy apprentice, why did he listen to the two stupid apprentices and say that the master is gone, what does this master mean when he is gone, running away from home, or is he dead?

Guan Tong looked at the strange look in the eyes of the boy in the green shirt, and suddenly stopped speaking, Xu Tianran said softly: "You don't apprentice, how can I take you to walk in the rivers and lakes, you also think that the master is not as old as you, I am afraid that in a few years, someone will say that I have ill intentions, and I will covet your beauty along the way, and when I jump into the Yellow River, I can't wash it away, then you have to leave us." ”

Xu Tianran's words made Zhu Ziqi wonder, is this surnamed Xu's head broken? When the apprentice said such a thing, where did Guan Tong dare to apprentice?

Guan Tong thought for a long time, solemnly took the bamboo knife, knelt on the ground, and offered tea three times.

Zhu Ziqi's eyes almost fell to the ground, this is all right.

Xu Tianran endured the pain, got up and sat at the head of the bed, took the bowl of tea, and took a sip gently, the color of the tea was red.

Xiao Dilong took the tea bowl and was stunned for a long time, the master was really seriously injured.

Xu Tianran kept her promise, and since she said that she would never snoop into Guan Tong's heart again, she would no longer snoop, but what he said was based on his understanding of Guan Tong, since the family was broken, she no longer trusted anyone, and she didn't want to trust anyone anymore, thinking that no matter how hard and tired she was, she could get through it alone. Dad said, from thrift to luxury, from luxury to thrift, since she was a child by her father in the palm of her hand to grow up, she has suffered a lot to learn to be independent and strong, she is afraid that everything in front of her is false hope, once she gets the warmth again, and then loses, she has to go through that painful road again, she has no confidence that she can go again, because the pain of losing again is more painful than the original.

Moreover, Guan Tong is wary of anyone, Xu Tianran said bluntly what she was worried about, Guan Tong was relieved, she knew that at this time, the world was so big that there was no place for her. Xu Tianran wanted to take her as an apprentice, but in Guan Tong's heart, it was nothing more than that Xu Tianran saved himself at the beginning, either coveting his beauty or coveting his talent. Once Xu Tianran's kindness to himself was purposeful at the beginning, all the good was false.

Guan Tong was stunned and looked at the pool of blood in the tea bowl, which gradually melted in the bowl, and her heart, which had been cold for a long time, had a throbbing, perhaps, she should believe in others again, he may be really good to herself, and there is nothing else to ask for.

Guan Tong's eyes were lowered, Xu Tianran faintly saw the tears in Guan Tong's eyes, and said softly: "Don't think too much, you have healed a lot for your teacher's injury, besides, Master is a professional who vomits blood, and I don't know how much blood I vomited since I was a child, I don't believe it." ”

Zhu Ziqi couldn't help laughing and held back two tears.

Guan Tong got up slowly, wiped a trace of tears from the corners of his eyes, and said with a smile: "Master is so young, we won't call Master in front of people in the future, call me brother, how about it?"

Xu Tianran grimaced and said solemnly: "No." ”

Guan Tong immediately retreated and said, "That little earth dragon is not much earlier than me, can I not call me senior brother in the future?"

Xu Tianran was just about to take out a master's posture, Guan Tong said coquettishly: "Master is biased, then I'll go and sue my master." ”

Xu Tianran shook his head helplessly, and compromised: "You can be regarded as the first female apprentice of the teacher, and you can be regarded as the senior sister of the mountain." ”

Guan Tong grimaced at Xiao Dilong and said, "I know, I will call Senior Sister in the future." ”

Xu Tianran knocked a chestnut on Guan Tong's head and said with a smile: "You also want to call Senior Brother Dilong." ”

Guan Tong defended: "Where is there such a name, then which of us is bigger?"

Xu Tianran smiled: "Outside, senior brother, in master, you are bigger." ”

Guan Tong's smile was gone, leaving behind a black-lined Huyan Dilong, which was a bit chaotic, and he was allowed to take care of it.

Guan Tong happily took the bamboo knife, and as soon as he started it, he couldn't help frowning and said, "It's so heavy." Immediately, I couldn't put it down and smiled brightly.
