Chapter 31: As Your Martial Arts Teacher
The giant sword in his hand, which could have been lifted with a little effort, became extremely heavy under the violent washing of the waterfall.
Qu Qingge's immature hands held the hilt of the giant sword, and he raised the sword in his hand with difficulty, the sword body was upright, and he slowly swung forward with one sword, one sword.
Under the waterfall, the turbulent water fiercely washed the young figure below, but the figure stood tenaciously on the sleek boulder, holding the giant sword in both hands, slowly but surely slashing forward.
This is just the simplest of all the sword moves in the world, but due to various factors, it is extremely difficult to do, but Qu Qingge still meticulously keeps chopping.
Every time the sword is swung, the posture is extremely accurate, and there is not even the slightest deviation.
As the chopping time increased, it seemed to be done a little smoother, Qu Qingge's chopping action became faster and faster, and she became more and more skillful, seeing that she was about to enter the best situation, but she didn't notice it for a while, and suddenly her body was unstable, and as soon as her feet slipped, she was swept down the boulder by the ruthless flow of water.
Caught off guard, he was knocked over at the bottom of the water again, Qu Qingge choked a few mouthfuls of water, struggled to use his hands and feet together, and climbed onto the boulder.
She dragged the giant sword and slowly stood up, ignoring the dull pain of accidentally hitting the stone when she fell just now, and once again began to swing the sword mechanically.
In this way, Qu Qingge dragged his increasingly tired and painful body, getting up, swinging his sword, falling, getting up, swinging his sword, falling, and endlessly......
Zhou Qinfang just watched Qu Qingge's cultivation coldly on the side, and just when she was satisfied with Qu Qingge's tenacity, a rough male voice suddenly came from behind her: "Sister, are you too ruthless like this? Such a young child, don't give you a bad training." ”
"If she can't even endure this little suffering, she is not worthy to be my disciple. Zhou Qinfang snorted coldly and said categorically.
"That's how you think of this child, don't look anymore, observe and observe?" Zhou Qinjie stood behind Zhou Qinfang, and when he heard her firm words, he couldn't help but raise his eyebrows and asked.
Since this child has good talents, is a good seedling to practice heavy swords, and suits my appetite, I naturally have to strike first and determine her. ”
Zhou Qinfang frowned, he didn't like his eldest brother's procrastination very much, he had to wait and see everything and wait and see, and when he finished watching, the flowers would be thanked. I don't know if my mother gave birth to the wrong gender of their brother and sister, obviously she is more like a man.
"Okay, okay, auntie, it's good if you're happy, the little one won't bother you, I'll retire first." Seeing that his sister was already a little unhappy, in order to avoid being preached again, Zhou Qinjie retreated decisively.
Even if Qu Qingge was indulging in sword practice at this time and had no intention of paying attention to the outside world, Zhou Qinfang still had to save some face for her eldest brother in front of the juniors, and she didn't break Zhou Qinjie's careful thoughts, and let him dodge away.
She just looked at Zhou Qinjie's back helplessly, shook her head, and turned to look at her newly accepted baby disciple.
——————————
In the afternoon, when the cultural class began, the children were already sitting in their seats and listening attentively.
Mu Lao was standing on the podium, with one hand behind his back, and the other in front of him, caressing his long beard, and gently telling the children below who were eager to learn to pay attention to when they went to the elixir field to practice.
Zhang Lian'er sat in her seat, listening to the lecture, and from time to time swept her eyes to the empty position in the front row, worried and anxious in her heart.
What's wrong with Qingge, they've all started class, why haven't you come yet?
Among the people present, except for Zhang Lian'er, who had the best relationship with Qu Qingge, the others also looked at the only empty seat in the front row from time to time.
There's no way, the seats in this classroom are fixed for one person, and now there is a sudden vacancy, still in the first row, which is really super conspicuous.
And the person who missed class and didn't come is still the man of the hour among the disciples of this year, and the desperate Sanniang song of the top name is even more surprising to everyone.
Others were just amazed that the most punctual person on weekdays had missed class today, and the people who were most concerned about why Qu Qingge hadn't come yet, in addition to Zhang Lian'er, there were three others.
They are Chu Yan and Shui Kunyu, who were previously pressed by Qu Qingge in the second and third places, and Zhou Zimu, who was finally surpassed by Qu Qingge in the battle at the bottom of the tree at the beginning.
After half a year of physical cultivation battles in the early stage, Chu Yan and Shui Kun Yu had long regarded Qu Qingge as an opponent they must surpass in their hearts.
And Zhou Zimu has always been unwilling to be surpassed by Qu Qingge, a bun from the secular world, and has been pressed on his head, even if there is more than one Qu Qingge on his head for a long time, but what he hates most in his heart is Qu Qingge, and he wants to trample her under his feet.
They were naturally concerned about the opponent's movements, and seeing that she didn't come to class at this time, they naturally looked at Qu Qingge's seat like Zhang Lian'er, thinking about why she hadn't come yet.
However, Zhang Lian'er was worried and anxious, while Chu Yan and Shui Kunyu were puzzled, and Zhou Zimu was gloating.
If you do too many small actions in class, you will always be caught by the master. Sure enough, just as the four of them were in class and lost their minds at the same time because of Qu Qingge, an angry rebuke suddenly sounded in their ears.
"Zhang Lian'er, Chu Yan, Shui Kunyu, Zhou Zimu, when did the four of them move frequently, could it be that listening to the old man's lecture makes you so impatient?"
The four of them were frightened, and quickly stood up, feeling remorseful in their hearts, and just when they wanted to apologize to Mu Lao, there was a crisp knock at the door, and then a delicate voice belonging to a little girl sounded closely.
"Qi Yu Mu Lao, the disciple Qu Qingge is late, and I ask Mu Lao to punish him. ”
For children who are late and absent from class, Mu Lao doesn't like it in his heart. At the beginning of this lesson, when he saw that the child he had favored before was actually absent from his class, he couldn't help but feel a wave of disappointment and anger in his heart.
As the saying goes, the greater the expectation, the greater the disappointment.
So even he, a person who has always been gentle to others, was also a little dissatisfied with Qu Qingge at the moment, and when he heard that she was finally coming, he didn't want to pay attention to her, so he asked people to stand outside, and he continued to explain the precautions after entering the elixir field.
Qu Qingge seemed to know that he was wrong, so he just stood straight outside the door without saying a word, no longer reminding Mu Lao that there was a big living person at the door, and he didn't take a step into the classroom.
Halfway through Mu Lao's talk, he saw that all the disciples had been staring at the door absentmindedly, he frowned slightly, and sighed in his heart that these children were really too susceptible to external influences, and they still had to practice more.
Then he lazily raised his eyes and swept out the door, and at this moment, his gaze suddenly stopped, and then there was a burst of rage!
"That's what you're looking like! How could you be so badly wounded, your puppet? What about Hua Shu? Are they all dead? Why don't you protect you in time? The old man must punish them severely, and there is such a serious breach of responsibility. ”
Mu Lao directly left the full class of students, quickly flashed to Qu Qingge's side, pulled her wrist and probed, and scolded angrily while diagnosing her injuries.
I saw that the child who was standing in front of him at this time was soaked, with two bare feet, the hairband on her head had long since fallen to where it had fallen, and her hair was scattered over her shoulders.
This is not what makes Mu Lao the most angry, what makes him most angry is that Qu Qingge's body is covered with bruises, and there is no place to see his face, hands and feet exposed outside his clothes.
The originally white and tender little face was swollen with wounds, and in some places it was even oozing blood, and the blood mixed with the water stains on her body stained her blue and white dress, which was extremely miserable to look at.
On the surface, Qu Qingge's most serious injuries were her hands and feet, her hands were torn open to the point that bones were visible, both hands were stained with blood, and the sleeves of her clothes were all stained red with blood.
Even though her hands were naturally drooping at this time, she could still see that her hands had been shaking uncontrollably, and her two bare feet were also scarred and bloodstained.
As if feeling something, Mu Lao looked up at the road she had come all the way over.
Sure enough, in the long wooden hallway, a small bloody footprint mixed with water trails stretched all the way to the door of the classroom.
As a medicine cultivator, Mu Lao could naturally easily diagnose that in addition to these injuries on the outside, Qu Qingge also suffered serious internal injuries in his body, which was also what made him the most angry.
Of course, he could see that these injuries on Qu Qingge's body were all caused by cultivating swordsmanship, but the heart of the healer's parents, although in the cultivation realm, the relationship between people has always been relatively weak, but since he would choose to stay in the sect to cultivate children, he is naturally also a person who likes children, and now seeing that the child he loves has been injured so seriously, how can he not be angry.
Even if it's for cultivation, it's unforgivable!
"Hua Shu! Hua Shu!" Mu Lao roared angrily a few times of the seven disciples' Dao numbers, thinking about asking her what was going on, but no one answered him.
Helpless, he could only call the eldest disciple instead: "Huaqi!"
This time, someone answered, and a young man wearing a cyan wide-sleeved robe, a slender figure and an elegant face suddenly flashed out from behind Chu Yan.
He tucked his sleeves lightly, leaned over gracefully and saluted respectfully to Mu Lao, and said softly: "Hua Qi is here." ”
"You can help me take this lesson first, and I'll take this child to heal. Mu Lao quickly commanded, and then without waiting for the eldest disciple's answer, he directly picked up the child who had fallen into a coma and floated away.
"Yes, Hua Qi obeyed the order and sent off the master. ”
Even though he knew that the master could no longer see it, Hua Qi, who adhered to etiquette, still finished the salute seriously, then waved his wide sleeves lightly, turned around gently, smiled gently at the children in front of him who were restless by this change, and spoke softly:
"I'm the old man who sat down and passed on the eldest disciple Huaqi personally, because the incident happened suddenly, I will lead you to the elixir field in this class......"
Qu Qingge had completely collapsed into Mu Lao's arms at this time, losing consciousness.
When she stood outside the door just now, she was just thinking that there was still a class to be held in the afternoon, and the whole person was holding on to herself.
When Mu Lao touched her, he realized that he had arrived in the classroom, and her mind was already blurred, so she naturally misjudged that she had achieved the purpose of the class, and the breath was dispersed, and naturally she couldn't hold back her consciousness in a daze, Qu Qingge seemed to hear someone roaring wildly outside the house.
"Where's the brain?, you've eaten it yourself?!"
"A four-year-old child, her muscles and bones have not grown, you let her go to the bottom of the waterfall to swing her sword ten thousand times!
"Yes, a four-year-old child can already start learning martial arts moves in earnest, but she was holding a heavy sword at the time! The child even had a wound on her hand at the time! You actually let her swing a sword at the bottom of the waterfall!"
"Don't quibble with me!"
"Don't tell me that her body is naturally better than others, and don't tell me that her current body strength is stronger than that of an adult in the mortal world, and no matter how strong she is, her body will only grow to four years old, your four-year-old child is trained like this, you don't feel distressed!"
"You guys are really ...... The old man is angry!!" With this burst of shouting, followed by a violent sound of crossing.
"She said that she can persevere? How old is she, and what she says counts? You have lived to be a dog for more than 200 years? You dare to support your dreams, saying that you can't disturb your teaching, and if you don't disturb you, you will teach me this way?"
"And you, Hua Shu! You are a pharmacist specially appointed by the sect to protect this child, and your duty is to keep an eye on this child's body at all times, ensure her physical safety in time, and rescue her when necessary. ”
"If she asks you to go away, you will leave, are you her disciple or my disciple, don't you have any points in your heart?"
"The sect is for you to teach and protect the future core disciples of the sect, not for you to destroy her, are you stupid!"
"Doesn't it usually look at you all to be quite powerful? As a result, your cultivation only increases, and your cultivation does not increase your brains?"
"Seeing that the child is so badly injured, none of you will treat her in time?" The last sentence of the man almost burst into a loud voice, which shows how angry he is.
It's noisy......
With the noisy sound outside, Qu Qingge's consciousness gradually sobered up, she frowned slightly, her eyelashes trembled slightly, and she slowly opened her eyes.
As soon as she opened her eyes, she was accustomed to finding herself soaked in a medicinal bath again, but this time the medicinal bath was obviously several times more powerful than all the potions she had soaked before.
Visibly feeling that there was no more pain in her body, she lowered her head, stretched out her hands from the water, and put them in front of her eyes to examine them carefully.
Sure enough, the wounds on his hands and body were all healed as before.
The pot of medicinal baths she soaked in was a clear turquoise color, the water rippled slightly, the aura was dense, and the fragrance of plants penetrated into her nose, and with every breath, she could clearly feel that the internal injuries in her body were constantly improving.
Obviously, there is a lot of vitality in this medicinal bath.
She soaked in it, the injuries in her body were healing every moment, and even as time passed, she could clearly feel the qi in her body growing stronger.
Originally, in her perception, the qi that had been circulating in her body was only about the thickness of a hair, but after the enhancement of this medicinal bath, that qi had become as thick as ten hairs together.
Qu Qingge sensed that the aura and medicinal properties in this medicinal bath were still sufficient, and it was expected that when she absorbed all of this medicinal bath, the qi in her body would increase by five times.
The people outside were noisy for a while, and it seemed that someone noticed that Qu Qingge had woken up, and suddenly a noisy footstep came, and then several figures appeared in front of Qu Qingge's eyes in an instant.
The leader looked like a young man, with a beautiful appearance, enchanting phoenix eyes, and an indifferent temperament, as if he had just hurried from a formal occasion, and he was also wearing a dignified and heavy black color dress, and the clothes were slightly messy.
Qu Qingge was slightly shocked in her heart, it was the sect master who came in person, but she was soaking in the medicinal bath at the moment, even if she was still wearing clothes such as belly pockets and pants to cover her body, she was still out of courtesy, how could she see outsiders in this kind of posture.
Just when Qu Qingge was embarrassed in the water and didn't know what to do, he saw Xuan Han slightly open his eyes and no longer look at her, and then he waved his hand, and her spirit puppet jade sleeves stood out in front of her, firmly blocking her figure.
Qu Qingge glanced at the sect master gratefully, and buried herself deeper into the water, even if this clear medicinal bath couldn't cover anything, it still gave her a little sense of security.
Behind the sect master were Mu Lao, Xu Lao, Qinghe, Zhou Qinfang and Hua Shu, Qu Qingge looked at the group in front of him suspiciously, not understanding what they were doing so much.
As soon as Mu Lao entered the room, he took the lead in directly past everyone and came to Qu Qingge's side, reaching out to grab her wrist without her refusal to diagnose carefully.
Everyone present didn't say a word, silently staring at Mu Lao's movements, waiting for his result.
"Fortunately, most of the injuries have healed, and there is no root cause of the disease, but you still have to be more leisurely when cultivating in the next seven days, and you can't cause any more serious injuries. ”
The diagnosis was not bad, and Mu Lao's originally tense face eased a little, but he was too angry just now, and he couldn't turn his emotions at this time, so he could only pull the corners of his mouth as much as possible, and smiled at Qu Qingge stiffly, then turned around and retreated behind the sect master.
His face, which was originally slightly softened because Qu Qingge's injury was recovering well, instantly stretched out when he turned around and saw Hua Shu and Zhou Qinfang, with a look of disdain.
Zhou Qinfang and Hua Shu knew that they had made a mistake, and they didn't even dare to come out, when the two of them were outside the house, they were jointly trained by Mu Lao and Xu Lao for a long time, and Qinghe also threw a knife at them on the side.
At this moment, for Mu Lao's face thrown over, they naturally could only accept it obediently.
Compared with Hua Shu's chagrin for his own failure to do so, Zhou Qinfang's heart was more apologetic and guilty about Qu Qingge.
Qu Qingge is the first disciple she brought, she used to live like a rough man, every day in addition to cultivation is to go out to practice and fight with people, never alone with such a young child, naturally I don't know that the child's body is so weak.
Her request for Qu Qingge to swing under the waterfall every day is based on Qu Qingge's physical limit, but she forgot that not everyone has the body of a war tiger like her, no matter what kind of blow she suffers, how many injuries she suffers, she can heal quickly, and her body will become stronger than before.
Because of her special Dharma body, when she was a child, she was also four years old, she was trained by her father to the point of being harsh and almost cruel, so that she could cultivate to reach the middle stage of the Yuan Infant at the age of two hundred and fifty-seven today, and she was proud of countless geniuses of her peers.
That child would only consciously and strictly complete her instructions when cultivating, and never shout bitterness and tiredness and pain, and she didn't like the presence of outsiders during her daily cultivation, so she would naturally empty the field when training that child.
This also led to the fact that even if there was something wrong with the child later, because the child himself didn't say it, she didn't have such a young child and was inexperienced, and even if she was inexperienced, she was able to branch out of the medicine cultivation again, so in the end, no one stopped Qu Qingge's unreasonable cultivation in time and healed her in time.
This point is also a point that makes Mu Lao extremely angry, the sect actually arranged a bunch of inexperienced people to take care of and teach the most important preparatory core disciples in the sect, is this a genius disciple who wants to destroy the future of the next generation of the sect on his own?
If the child's condition at that time was not treated in time, not only the meridians would be damaged, but even her internal organs would have a certain impact, if he hadn't decisively taken out the treasure of the medicine, the origin of wood, to nourish her body, they still wanted to see a lively child at this moment? It's a dream!
The future core disciples of the sect are different from other disciples, if the rest of the disciples in the sect accidentally have any accidents, let alone get injured, even if they die, only their close teachers, fellow disciples and relatives and friends will be sad for them.
As core disciples, even if they are prepared, they are not officially core disciples, but they are also strictly cultivated as the pillars of the next generation of the sect, and each of them will be regarded as a treasure by the entire sect.
Accidentally losing any of them is a huge loss to the sect, their safety is the first thing to be protected in the sect, and now there is actually a serious injury because of the improper teaching of the teacher, or the best one, which naturally caused the upper echelons of the entire Lingyun Sect to explode.
Qu Qingge, who was still soaking in the medicinal bath with a confused face, didn't know that at this time, it was not only the people in front of her who cared about her injuries, but also the entire Lingyun Sect, except for the three ancestors sitting in the secret realm, the rest of the upper echelons above the Yuan Infant were highly concerned.
Strictly speaking, in this incident, not only the culprit Zhou Qinfang and Hua Shu were at fault, but also the sect master and Mu Lao, Xu Lao, and Qinghe, who were mainly responsible for educating and taking care of these children, were all derelict in their responsibilities, and they all deserved to be punished.
Xuan Han stood behind and waited for Mu Lao to finish Qu Qingge's diagnosis, and then solemnly announced:
"In this incident of preparing the core disciple to be seriously injured due to excessive cultivation, the main offender, Zhou Qinfang, was sentenced to formally apologize to the disciple, and within three years, half of the monthly deduction was handed over to the disciple as a punishment, and after completing the task of teaching the disciple, he went to the fourfold realm of the abyss to meditate for three years. ”
"Yes, Qin Fang is the sect master!" Zhou Qinfang had no objections, and simply responded to the punishment neatly.
Then she took out a jade box from her storage ring on the spot, bowed deeply and handed it to Qu Qingge, and sincerely apologized: "This matter is the fault of the teacher, I'm sorry, I hope Qingge can forgive the teacher this time." ”
"It's not...... The disciple doesn't blame the uncle, this matter is obviously the disciple's fault for not measuring his own strength, and the disciple should bear the responsibility, why should he punish Uncle Qin Fang. ”
At this moment, Qu Qingge had already figured out what was going on, and seeing that Zhou Qinfang actually apologized solemnly to her, she hurriedly reached out and wanted to help her up, but because of this, she was immersed in the bathtub, and her little hands were short, but she couldn't reach Zhou Qinfang, so she could only accept this gift helplessly.
"Needless to say, you are only four years old, and you don't have the power to completely judge right and wrong, and if something happens, it should be the fault of us who are the elders of the sect. ”
Xuan Han waved his hand to stop Qu Qingge, who wanted to say something more, but turned his head to stare into her eyes, and said indifferently: "In the future, Zhou Qinfang will also be your martial arts teacher, if you don't want to be taught by her anymore, you can ask for a change, do you want to change?"
"The disciple sings lightly, and he is unwilling to change the teacher. Qu Qingge did not hesitate and said firmly.
Others don't know, can she not know how old she really is? She has been an adult for many years, and as an adult, she has enough mind to judge the right and wrong of her actions.
Zhou Qinfang is certainly at fault in this matter, and she herself should also bear some responsibility, if it weren't for her dedication to pursuing higher strength, wanting to comprehend the sword intent as soon as possible, so as to rush for quick success and quick profit, regardless of her own endurance, and force herself to cultivate to the death, there would be no such thing.
So for Zhou Qinfang, she also had a trace of apology in her heart.
In this way, Zhou Qinfang is still a martial arts teacher of Qu Qingge. Xuan coldly blushed and clapped his head high.
He turned to Zhou Qinfang, his phoenix eyes were sharp, and his words were full of warning: "Zhou Qinfang, you need to teach Qu Qingge wholeheartedly, don't hold a grudge because of this, wait for an opportunity to take revenge, or don't teach without heart." Remember, if you find out, you will go to the Nine Realms of the Abyss to receive your sins for a hundred years!"
"Yes! Zhou Qinfang saluted respectfully to Xuan Han and bowed his head.
Then Xuan Han announced the punishments of the others on the spot one by one:
As for all matters concerning the disciple's future medicine, he was solely responsible for his teacher Musu, as his teacher taught his disciple to pass on his disciple's personal disciples. ”
"Qinghe, Musu, and Xu Yuan, as the main ones who taught their disciples, were responsible for poor supervision, and were sentenced to seal their spiritual power by themselves and be punished with ten lashes. ”
"Lingyun Sect Master Xuan Han is responsible for the improper management of the sect, and he was sentenced to seal his own spiritual power and be whipped a hundred times!" In the end, Xuan Han even punished himself, and the matter finally came to an end.
