Volume 1: The Emperor of Heaven Collapsed Mountains and Rivers Shattered Wen Run's Young Man Asked the Immortal for the First Time Chapter 79 Orphans
Qi Mu beckoned Qian Yang and the two to sit down, took out a few spirit fruits and put them on the plate, and pushed them in front of Yu Zhu. Turning his head to Qian Yang, he said: "This spirit fruit is not of high grade, our cultivation has no effect on eating, let's just watch the little girl eat it." ”
Qian Yang shook his head, not knowing whether to say that he was generous or that he was stingy.
Seeing that Qi Mu's life seemed to be a little embarrassed, Qian Yang had planned to ask Qi Mu for help, but it was difficult to speak.
However, it is said that with Qi Mu's ability, it should not be like this, Qian Yang walked with Qi Mu last time, but he deeply knew the ability of the third prince of Qi, among the monks of the same level, Qi Mu's combat power was definitely the top. Not to mention what he has gained from years of training outside, just talking about the trip to the secret realm, his harvest alone is comparable to Qian Yang and the fat man.
Qian Yang didn't know how to speak, but Qi Mu's mouth couldn't be idle: "Last time I said goodbye, Senior Brother Qian said that he would come to me later, but I waited for more than half a year, so I didn't even dare to retreat, how should Senior Brother Qian compensate me?"
Qian Yang is not so easy to fool: "Don't dare to retreat, Senior Brother Qi has made great progress in cultivation, I'm afraid it's just out of the customs, right?" After a short fight, Qian Yang could see at a glance that Qi Mu's skills were still above him, and he was already at the seventh level of Qi refining, so Qi Mu naturally had a breakthrough during this time.
Qi Mu made an expression that you had seen through, and then asked, "Senior brother, is there something wrong here?"
Qian Yang nodded and briefly explained Yu Zhu's situation to Qi Mu. One person is short, two people are long, even if Qi Mu can't solve it, it's much better for everyone to discuss it than for him to think about it alone.
After hearing this, Qi Mu turned to Yu Zhu, but Yu Zhu didn't raise his head, pretending not to hear anything, and ate the fruit by himself. The little girl was hiding her embarrassment in this clumsy way. Until Yu Zhu ate a plate of spirit fruits into his stomach, he could still feel Qi Mu's eyes staring at her all the time.
There was nothing to hide, so Yu Zhu had to raise his head and meet Qi Muna's inquiring gaze. Qi Mu's gaze did not mean to leave, and Yu Zhu also puffed out his cheeks and glanced at Qi Mu with slanted eyes, not wanting to show weakness at all.
After a while, Yu Zhu's upper and lower eyelids began to fight, his eyes were dark, his neck was crooked, and he almost fell asleep directly. Qi Mu was startled, and then laughed out loud by the little girl's cuteness.
Yu Zhu blushed, buried his head under his arm and never raised it again. The nearly ten-day trip was too hard for Yu Zhu, and when she calmed down, a thick sleepiness hit her uncontrollably.
"Let's go sleep for a while!" Qian Yang was a little distressed, in his opinion, such a big girl should be spoiled, and she shouldn't suffer anyway.
"Hmm. Yu Zhu nodded, and Qi Mu hurriedly went to the room to clean up the bed and arrange for the little girl to sleep. After some busyness, Qi Mu and Qian Yang sat down at the table again.
At this time, without Yu Zhu on the side, the two of them had less scruples when they spoke.
"Senior Brother Qi, is there a way to settle Xiaozhu?" Qian Yang asked.
"There is a way, but I am afraid that I will wronged her. Qi Mu hesitated.
Qian Yang's eyes lit up: "Senior Brother Qi might as well come and listen!"
Qi Mu's expression became a little heavy, and he slowly spoke: "A few years ago, there was a Taoist friend who had a good relationship with me and often went out to practice together. But then he died in an accident, and before he died, he asked me to help him take care of his young son, who was only 10 years old. My friend is lonely, and I am naturally duty-bound. As a monk, once you are in retreat, it will take months to say the least, and if you go out, it will take immeasurable time, so it is really difficult for me to take care of a child alone. I had no choice but to rent him a house not far away, and hired a mortal sister-in-law to take care of his daily life, and I feared that he would be alone, so I found a few monks of his age and good heart in the town to live with him, and I visited him whenever I had free time. Now that those children are almost at the age of enlightenment, I have accumulated some spirit stones over the years, and I am planning to find some introductory exercises for them to cultivate. The little girl was not much different in age from them, and she was of similar origin, so if she did not dislike them, she could live with these children, and once she had achieved something, she would be able to take care of each other in the future. ”
Qian Yang pondered for a long time after listening to this, he definitely didn't expect Qi Mu to quietly adopt several orphans of scattered cultivators, and he admired it but also had some worries.
"Are there a lot of orphans of monks in the town?" Qian Yang seemed to ask an insignificant question.
"Hmm!" Qi Mu nodded: "There are a large number of scattered cultivators living in Iris Town, and the fall rate of scattered cultivators is quite amazing, and many fallen monks have left their bloodlines in the town. ”
"It's not a small cost for you to take in those children, right?" Qian Yang asked again.
Qi Mu shook his head: "There is no cost over the years, the children have not yet reached the age of cultivation, they only need some mortal consumption, I will occasionally get them some spirit fruits to improve their physique, but it won't cost a few spirit stones." It's just that the children will be over fifteen, and it is a big expense to buy exercises and spells. ”
Qian Yang got up and took a deep look: "Senior Brother Qi has a noble character, and his words and deeds really make Qian Yang embarrassed!"
Qi Mu chuckled and shook his head: "Due to the situation, it can't be noble." These children are so good-natured and lovable, and I can't watch such a good child sink anyway. Besides, I also have some investment mentality! If I am praised for this, Qi will feel ashamed!"
"Senior Brother Qi is too humble. Qian Yang shook his head, and then asked, "The exercises and spells that Senior Brother Qi said are to be purchased in the Scattered Cultivation Alliance, right?"
Qi Mu knew this well: "Most of the introductory exercises are around five hundred spirit stones, and the ordinary beginner spells are about two or three hundred spirit stones each. If each child is equipped with one exercise and two spells, it will probably cost a thousand spirit stones!"
"How many children do you have?" Qian Yang couldn't help but be stunned when he heard the price.
Qi Mu smiled lightly: "Four boys, three girls, if you add this little girl, you can make up two tables of dominoes!"
Qian Yang gave a thumbs up: "The third son's net worth is really rich!"
Qi Muzheng's expression was solemn: "But there is one thing Senior Brother Qian can think about, once that little girl buys the exercises and starts to cultivate, it can be regarded as a complete end to the path of joining the sect, and no sect will include a disciple who has already become enlightened." ”
Qian Yang nodded, he naturally knew that it would be a great price to change the exercises after cultivation, so if there were no special circumstances, the sect would naturally not admit people who had practiced other exercises. Back then, Luo Tong didn't dare to cultivate on his own in order to join the Qingling Sect, but waited for five years.
This matter is related to the little girl's life, and Qian Yang does not dare to assert herself: "Let the little girl decide for herself!"
