Haoqi Mountain courtyard, inside the wooden house
A huge wooden barrel was placed in the center. The inside of the barrel was filled with clear water sprinkled with flower petals. There were many strange incantations engraved on the outside of the barrel.
As Liu Nian played a spell, the spell on the outside of the barrel disappeared into the air. At the same time, a layer of mist gradually floated on the surface of the bath water.
Because last night, Liu Nian was confused and covered Zhao Tubao with a quilt in the middle of summer. As a result, the little girl was sweating all over. This was also the root cause of the little girl's dehydration and fainting.
Zhao Tubao, who knew the truth, did not blame Liu Nian and said that he would go to the clear spring on the mountain later and take a bath and he would be fine.
When Liu Nian heard this, he strongly objected and firmly disagreed!
Because Liu Danian is well aware of a law: in the world of cultivation, if a female disciple takes a bath in an open-air pool, she will 100% be seen by a male disciple who accidentally bumps into her.
How could he allow such a bloody plot to happen to his little apprentice!
So Liu Nian made a bath bucket in the house, intending to let the little girl experience the feeling of taking a warm bath.
Liu Nian stretched out a palm and penetrated the water through the mist, and a few petals were pressed down.
Liu Nian felt the temperature of the water and felt it was a little low, so he cast another spell on the barrel to raise the water temperature.
Under the beautiful sun, He Ling turned into a green figure and landed near the courtyard of Haoqi Mountain. He did not land directly in the courtyard where Liu Nian lived, because that would be very impolite.
In the world of spiritual practice, the walls and gates of the residence are not useless to monks who can fly.
Walking in from the front door to visit others is a manifestation of etiquette.
If you fly into someone else's yard rashly, you will appear to be ignorant of the rules.
He Ling's father, Bai Qiuming, is the sect's punishment elder. He is very fond of etiquette. He Ling, who has been exposed to etiquette since he was a child, will naturally not lack etiquette.
What's more, she came here to learn healing spells from Liu Nian. She was asking for help, and it was natural to lower her status.
He Ling adjusted her attire, the slightly wrinkled green cuffs were slowly smoothed by her, and the naughty hair was rearranged by a jade hand.
After a long time, a graceful and graceful woman stood at the door of the Haoqi Mountain Courtyard.
Zhao Tubao, who was sitting under the gardenia tree and chewing apples, happened to look at He Ling at the door. Seeing this, the little girl hurriedly ran to notify Liu Nian that someone was coming.
Just when the little girl was about to push the door open, the door opened and Liu Nian's figure walked out.
"Tubao, the bath has been prepared for you, come in quickly!"
Zhao Tubao tilted his head to signal to Liu Nian who was at the gate of the courtyard. Seeing Liu Nian's calm face, the little girl nodded and said with a smile: "Thank you, master, that Tubao has gone in."
After the little girl scampered into the wooden house, Liu Nian turned his attention to He Ling at the door of the courtyard, feeling secretly happy.
Hey hey hey... He Ling, I've been waiting for you!
The Debtors Alliance needs you!
Half an hour later.
Under the gardenia tree, Liu Nian grabbed He Ling's slender arm and stared at He Ling intently.
He Ling coyly said: "Brother Liu Nian, I really don't have anything left..."
When Liu Nian heard this, an evil smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and he still stared at He Ling without any deviation in his gaze.
Little Heling, lying in front of me is useless.
Because your emotions have betrayed you!
Seeing that Liu Nian still refused to give up, He Ling reached into his chest, took out a jade pendant that looked like a fox, and handed it to Liu Nian's hand.
While Liu Nian felt the warmth coming from the jade pendant in his hand, he also felt He Ling's extremely reluctant mood, and asked softly: "If you are so reluctant to part with it, why do you still give it to me?"
He Ling looked away from the jade pendant, looked into Liu Nian's black eyes, and said, "Because your set of healing spells is more important than that."
Liu Nian lowered his head and admired the fox-shaped jade pendant in his hand.
The jade pendant in my hand was of average quality and not of exquisite workmanship. Apart from a strange fragrance, there was nothing special about it.
Strange... strange smell?
Liu Nian quickly handed the jade pendant to He Ling: "Here, give it, give it to you!"
He Ling took the jade pendant from Liu Nian and immediately looked at Liu Nian with pleading eyes.
He Ling had already given all his belongings to Liu Nian, with the purpose of learning from Liu Nian the magic called Dead Tree Reborn.
He Ling knew very well that what he gave to Liu Nian was far less valuable than the set of spells.
Using the flesh and white bones of the living dead to drive flesh and blood to regenerate is a difficult problem that the spiritual world has been unable to overcome, and it is also the supreme goal that thousands of pharmacists dream of.
He Ling believed that Liu Nian's mastery of the spell "Blooming of Dead Trees in Spring" would be an irresistible temptation for any pharmacist in the world of practice.
Therefore, it would not be too much for Liu Nian to ask for anything from her!
Liu Nian let go of He Ling's brittle bamboo-like arm and sighed.
He Ling showed an expression of loneliness and disappointment when he saw this.
Doesn't he agree?
This was also what I expected. After all, what I got was too cheap, not even one ten thousandth of that set of spells!
I've known him for less than a month, so how much concessions can I expect from him?
But, I really seem to learn!
As long as he agrees to teach me, even if he asks me to bring him tea and water every day, massage and beat his legs, I have no objection!
"I agree to teach you! I am now considered half of your master.
From now on, if you do small things like serving tea, pouring water, massaging and beating your legs, you should have no problem with it, right? "
He Ling looked at Liu Nian in disbelief, as if he suspected that he had heard wrongly!
Liu Nian looked at He Ling who was silent and said in an indifferent tone: "What? Do you have any objections?"
Knowing that it was not that she had heard wrong, but that Liu Nian was really willing to teach her, He Ling quickly waved her hand and said, "I have no objection! No objection!"
At this moment, a shy voice suddenly came from the wooden house: "Master! Tubao didn't bring any change of clothes. Can...can you pass one to Tubao?"
Liu Nian looked at He Ling, coughed deliberately, and pointed to the room where Zhao Tubao lived.
He Ling excitedly made an "I understand" gesture, then ran into Zhao Tubao's room and gave a change of clothes to the little girl who was taking a bath.
Seeing this, Liu Nian nodded slightly and weighed the newly acquired storage bag. He felt that this harvest was not bad. Not only did it temporarily solve the economic crisis, but he also gained a free servant.
After a while, He Ling and the foggy Zhao Tubao walked out of the wooden house.
Liu Nian looked at the somewhat dim sky and said to He Ling: "The spell of Dead Trees Renewing Spring involves a lot of things, so I need to make some preparations first.
It's a little late today. You should go back first. I will formally teach you tomorrow. "
He Ling wanted to say that he had escaped from the mortal level and did not need to sleep.
But before he spoke, he heard the yawn from the little girl next to him, and immediately understood what Liu Nian meant.
Afterwards, He Ling bowed to Liu Nian and left Haoqi Mountain.
evening
He Ling could not hide her joy and returned to Yaoling Peak. When she opened the door of the elixir shop, she saw two people, one tall and one short, standing in the courtyard, looking at her seriously.
"Second senior brother, master, good evening!"
Bai Qiuming still looked at He Ling with a serious face.
He Wen greeted He Ling with a smile: "Junior sister, good evening!"
Bai Qiuming lowered his head and glanced coldly at He Wen. The latter immediately regained his serious expression and tried hard to stand up straighter despite his height of less than five feet.
He Wen shook his head and figured out what he was planning to do!
Master called me here because he wanted me to persuade junior sister to stay away from Liu Nian.
In the past few days, Liu Nian has indeed changed a lot!
I am doing this for my junior sister’s good, I want to be cold and serious!
Anyway, the master has already prepared the lines for me, I just need to read them!
He Wen looked at He Ling and asked indifferently: "Junior sister, what have you been doing?"
He Ling answered without hesitation: "Go to Haoqi Mountain to find Liu Nian!"
Bai Qiuming took a deep breath when he heard this. He couldn't believe that his daughter was so bold.
Do you have no intention of hiding anything when dating your lover?
This character is completely like her mother’s!
He Wen's face was serious, even a little angry, like an angry elder scolding an ignorant child.
"Junior sister! You may not like what I say next, but it's all for your own good!
You can't always be so willful, you should listen to the master more.
The master has clearly told you that Liu Nian has a demonic experience and is not a good person. You will not learn anything good from being with him. If you continue to deal with him, you will learn bad things!
Look at how much trouble he has caused before, how much punishment he has incurred from heaven, and how much loss the sect has suffered for nothing!
If it hadn't been for him, the disciples in the sect would not have been injured, and you would not have been implicated by him and been locked up here for several days.
Junior sister, do you still think he is okay now? "
Hearing He Wen say bad things about Liu Nian, He Ling suddenly felt very uncomfortable. Liu Nian couldn't be blamed for those things, and she was also responsible for it.
He Ling remembered Liu Nian's words asking him to keep it secret. Without explaining anything, he turned his head and curled his lips and said, "I think he is pretty good!"
He Wen was about to continue to display his senior brother's majesty, but was deliberately bumped by Bai Qiuming. He Wen looked up at his master in confusion.
Bai Qiuming shook his head slightly, indicating that He Wen did not need to continue. Seeing this, He Wen also stopped talking and did not continue to read the following lines.
As He Ling's father, Bai Qiuming watched He Ling grow up and was familiar with the meaning of He Ling's every move.
He could naturally tell that He Ling was very unhappy now.
Seeing He Ling like this, Bai Qiuming, as a father, felt very uncomfortable.
Whatever! Since you are devoted to him, I will not be the evil person who cuts off the marriage.
In the courtyard, Bai Qiuming suddenly and mercilessly kicked away the apprentice beside him, and He Wen immediately rolled to the corner like a rubber ball.
In the shadow of the corner, He Wen looked at his master in confusion. He really couldn't understand that the other party suddenly wanted to kick him!
Bai Qiuming walked to his daughter and said warmly to He Ling, who looked miserable: "He Ling, your senior brother is too bad, let's ignore him!"
When He Wen heard this, his face was blank, and he looked at his master with helpless and pitiful eyes.
You don’t want to trick your disciples like this!
This is obviously what you taught me, master!
Even the lines, you told me word for word!
After being comforted, He Ling could no longer hide the grievances in her heart. Tears kept rolling in her eyes, and she looked at He Wen with pitiful eyes.
He Wenwen doted on his junior sister very much. Looking at He Ling's tearful eyes, he felt very panicked.
He immediately cast a pleading look at Bai Qiuming, hoping that his master could help him explain. He Wen didn't want his beloved junior sister to hate him.
Bai Qiuming continued to comfort He Ling and turned a blind eye to his disciple's prayers.
He Wen wanted to cry...but held it back.
After a long time, Bai Qiuming entered the pharmacy with He Ling who had stopped crying. When he was done, Bai Qiuming added angrily: "If you dare to bully your junior sister, I will have to deal with you sooner or later!"
In the end, He Wen couldn't hold it back and started crying alone.
After all, I took it all on myself...
