Jiang Xuehe's eyes fell on "Senior brother only loves babies."
Tiying immediately lay down, blocking it with her arms, and picked at a ball of thread on the mattress with her fingers. It looks like a wild partridge.
After a moment of silence, the words he finally asked were very innocuous: "Did you know that if you tear up the letter, you won't be able to see the content of the letter?"
Tiying was full of malice: "Didn't you read it all? This is how I like to read letters!"
Jiang Xuehe's eyes paused on her face for a moment, and Tiying thought he would sigh like his former master.
Jiang Xuehe said slowly, "It's good that junior sister is happy."
He turned his back and continued to rummage through the master's jade bag to find small toys for Tiying to play with, without mentioning the letter again. He was open-minded, but Tiying was a little unwilling because of his indifference.
Jiang Xuehe still remembered the ray of light that flew from the bag into Tiying's arms. When he saw that Tiying didn't mention it at all, he had an idea.
I guess there are some secrets between Master and Junior Sister that it is not convenient for him to know.
As a foreigner, he really shouldn't ask too much about their affairs.
However, the person who was chasing Ti Ying... Jiang Xuehe asked Ti Ying about this.
Tiying was unhappy: "They, the Xiao Men Xiao Sect, are our neighbors of the Qianshan Sect, and they are as incompetent as us. They covet our skills and think I can resurrect people..."
Tiying paused for a moment, she hesitated when it came to the secrets of the sect.
Doesn't Senior Brother know?
Jiang Xuehe replied: "I have never learned the sect's techniques from my master. But I think there is no resurrection technique in the world. They may have misunderstood."
Tiying: ...Humph, you know everything, it’s annoying.
Tiying was a little depressed when she heard Jiang Xuehe ask her: "Junior sister, I said I was senior brother, and you just asked a few questions and believed me? What if I am an imposter?"
Tiying lowered her head and played with the note.
He took a small magic weapon that could escape ten miles from the master's jade bag and placed it on the bed in front of her.
Tiying played with a small toy and said, "You look so good-looking, how can you be a bad person?"
Jiang Xuehe: "..."
He began to ponder, had he made the wrong mistake?
If the little baby thinks that good-looking people are good people from now on, is that his fault?
The naughty Ti Ying raised her head from the bed, admiring his troubled look with great pleasure——
One of her pleasures is bullying people.
My former master was often annoyed by her.
But……
This senior brother is really as quiet as a virgin.
She was such a bastard, but he just sat quietly, frowning slightly, still looking very indifferent.
Tiying puffed up her cheeks.
What worries Tiying even more is——
She stared at Jiang Xuehe's hand and got up from the bed: "What are you doing!"
Jiang Xuehe's arm was pressed by her, and the girl's soft and hot breath rushed towards him. He froze for a moment, maintaining his usual calmness, and then he had the time to put his arms around her to prevent her from throwing herself into his arms. He lowered his head and followed her gaze.
With his hands as dry as firewood and covered with scars, he picked out a large stack of yellow talismans from the master's jade bag.
But Tiying had an angry look on his face.
Um?
What happened to the talisman?
Tiying knelt in front of him.
Perhaps she felt that being ferocious might not be useful, so she had an angry look and a gleaming look in her eyes, pulling on his sleeve and shaking it.
Tiying grunted: "Well-meaning senior brother, I don't want to learn to draw talismans, and I don't want to continue learning the Great Dream Curse."
The Big Dream Curse is related to ghosts, so scary.
Tears burst from Tiying's eyes: Isn't it because she wants to worship Yujingmen that she doesn't want to learn these talisman-drawing techniques and stay away from the Great Dream Curse?
Jiang Xuehe understood.
Well, he remembered the content of the master's letter - the master indeed said that he wanted him to teach Tiying Taoism when he had time, and to supervise Tiying to learn the magic well.
Jiang Xuehe lowered his eyes and asked Tiying, "Is this the reason why you just tore up the letter?"
"No!" Ti Ying's hair exploded, grabbing his sleeve and pinching the back of his hand, like a red-eyed rabbit with teeth and claws, "I'm just telling you, I don't learn how to draw talismans, and I won't learn if you teach me! Don't take advantage of Senior Brother My identity weighs on me, even if the master is here, I won’t learn from him!”
Jiang Xuehe's hand moved.
Tiying quickly moved away the hand that was squeezing his, put her hands on her waist, and stared at him with her head raised.
There is a posture of never giving in and resisting him to the death.
Jiang Xuehe seemed to smile.
But before Tiying could see clearly, she heard him still saying slowly: "Okay, I won't teach you, nor will I force you. Whatever you want to learn, you can learn it yourself."
Tiying looked at him suspiciously - really?
He nodded.
He always looked calm and gentle. Tiying hesitated, but still didn't believe that he would disobey his master.
She reached out and poked the talisman in his hand, and continued with a straight face: "Then what do you plan to use this for?"
Tiying: "I know, you definitely want to coax me now and not make trouble with me. When I get close to you, you can trick me into learning talismans and dreaming spells. You can see there are many ways to deceive people. , I won’t be fooled.”
My former master often did this!
Jiang Xuehe's lowered eyelashes were like butterfly wings resting on them. The butterfly wings were stained with candle sparks, beautiful and hazy: "I don't have many ways to deceive people. I don't have the mental formulas you need to learn, so how can I trouble you?"
Tiying hesitated for a moment: "...It doesn't matter. You will definitely do it, I don't believe you!"
Tiying was fussing for a long time, and Jiang Xuehe didn't say anything for a while.
Tiying was a little tired. She secretly turned to look at him and saw him putting the talisman aside and starting to pack up other utensils and put them back into the jade bag.
Tiying's peek made him look back.
Tiying turned away.
Jiang Xuehe: "Junior sister, you are injured, it's time to sleep."
Tiying didn't: "You are a liar, and I am a bad guy - I don't sleep."
If you don't sleep, you are a bad guy, and the standard for bad guys is a bit low. Jiang Xuehe opened her hands in the air, and Tiying thought he was going to hit her, so she was so frightened that she hid back.
He made a few empty strokes with his fingers in mid-air, and a pen fell into his hand.
This made Tiying even more vigilant - he could draw symbols out of thin air, which showed that he was very talented and capable, and he was more than enough to teach her. In this case, she should be more careful.
Jiang Xuehe's pen landed on a stack of talisman paper.
The pen and ink fell on the top piece of talisman paper, and the candlelight jumped over the arc-shaped curtain hooks and fell on Jiang Xuehe.
The young man leaned over and wrote with his wrist hanging. A strand of hair fell down against his cheek, resting on his loose black robe. And the candlelight finally settled on his wrist.
His scarred wrist bones looked like snow jade, making Tiying look at them several times.
Jiang Xuehe wrote a few words on the talisman paper that had nothing to do with the talisman - "Infant Raising Manual".
Tiying stared, her eyes were like jade water.
Jiang Xuehe said warmly: "Senior brother will not teach you spells, but he will support you for a few days and use the talisman paper to write a few diaries. Is this good?"
The wolf hair disappeared from his hand.
Tiying raised her face: "...but why?"
He carefully pushed the girl into the mattress without touching her -
"I have never been with you before, and I want to use this opportunity to get to know you better. When your second senior brother comes, I will give the diary to your second senior brother and will not interfere with you in the future.
"So, is the baby willing to sleep? If he doesn't sleep well, he won't grow taller."
Tiying was covered with a quilt and placed on the couch. She looked at him with her moist eyes.
The candlelight made his bent face half-dark, and she could also see the injury on his neck. No one said anything, Tiying turned around and hid under the quilt——
Willing to sleep.
But what does it mean to hand her over to the second senior brother? Does Second Senior Brother also want to accompany her into Yujing Gate?
--
The next day, Tiying got up refreshed and found to her annoyance that because her senior brother was too gentle, she had forgotten the spirit of her former master that flew into her sea of consciousness last night.
Humph, according to the former master's cultivation, he could only pass on one or two sentences at most.
Tiying lazily entered her sea of consciousness, and sure enough, the spirit of her former master turned into a letter floating around in her sea of consciousness.
Really, what can't you say in front of your senior brother?
Tiying stretched out her hand to take the letter, but when she touched the letter paper, she became angry——
The former master put a lock on the letter.
Several relatively complex spells are involved.
In other words, if she couldn't undo the spell, she couldn't read the letter.
……what!
After traveling thousands of miles to secretly deliver a message, she still had to test her spell learning!
Stop watching!
Tiying angrily stuffed the letter back into the sea of consciousness.
--
When Jiang Xuehe was looking at the scenery outside the building on the second floor of the inn, the door behind him clicked.
He turned around and saw Tiying looking unhappy. He looked at her injuries with concern, but she was still jumping up and down.
Jiang Xuehe stood there, looking down at her belly, and closed the hood that had been blown away by the wind.
Tiying's anger turned to him: "When I'm in a bad mood, I even have to scold the dog!"
Jiang Xuehe suddenly wanted to laugh.
But he just ignored her call. After confirming that she seemed to be fine, he retained his doubts and gently held out his hand.
Tiying lowered her head and saw him handing over a long folded piece of cloth:
The pink hairband has been washed by him and smells like soap locust.
Tiying thought that that night, the hair tie had been tied with acid and had been exposed to the acid's blood and filthy breath... The senior brother kindly washed it for her.
She suppressed her awkwardness and said with a look of disgust, "No."
She passed by Jiang Xuehe. She originally wanted to bump into her senior brother and bully him, but she heard the lively sounds outside the window with Jiang Xuehe's side facing out.
She turned her head and was instantly attracted, lying down by the window of the inn.
Jiang Xuehe: "My daughter's personal belongings should not be thrown away casually."
Tiying ignored him.
There is the smell of wind behind me, and the time is quiet and long. After a while, she heard the soft and hoarse voice of her senior brother approaching: "Really don't want it?"
Tiying covered her ears: "Throw it away."
Jiang Xuehe was quiet for a moment.
He put the hair tie back into his sleeve.
Soon, he heard Tiying's clear laughter.
Tiying's troubles come and go very quickly: "Senior brother, it seems that people from Yujing Sect are coming down the mountain to register disciples outside! So you are standing by the window, are you watching this? I killed... we killed Suan Yu, It’s amazing, go down and register and tell them!”
Tiying turned back and said suspiciously: "You've been watching for a long time, why don't you go down? Could it be... shy?"
Tiying came to hold his hand, patting her chest and saying, "I'm not shy. I'm looking for people."
--
A quarter of an hour later, the long street outside the inn was bustling with people before the Yujing Sect disciple selection test.
In the crowd, Jiang Xuehe watched Tiying and Hua Shi fall out, and realized later: Is your recruitment just to provoke people?
Jiang Xuehe silently made a note in the "Baby Raising Manual": Be careful of Xiaoying's "recruitment".
