Thinking about last year when my husband stood in the snow and struck off fifteen snowflakes with his stunning sword.
Thinking that his extremely clumsy sword could actually chop off a snowflake.
Time seemed to have frozen at this moment, the speed of the snowflakes falling from the sky seemed to have stopped, the wind also stopped, and he heard the gentle flow of Qi in his blood.
At this moment, Li Ye seemed to have lost his breath. Standing under the tree, it was as if his soul had left his body. Only the hot breath exhaled from his nose proved that he was still alive.
Suddenly, he let out a heavy breathing like an old cow, like the little fish jumping on the shore.
Gently, Li Ye cheered.
She put away the bamboo sword and pressed her face against the cold purple bamboo sword. Smelling the cold fragrance of the Tianshan wind and snow, she felt indescribable joy in her heart.
Li Ye grinned. This was a self-affirmation of his hard work and an incomparable confidence that he could cut more snowflakes in the future.
Shaking off the snow on his body, he circulated his true energy to evaporate the moisture from his body, and walked into the shed step by step.
Light the charcoal fire in the stove and put the kettle on to boil water.
He took out the animal skin from his arms, carefully wiped the snow on the bamboo sword, pulled open the animal skin on the bamboo chair, relaxed his whole body, and lay down softly on it.
Thinking of his husband's repeated warnings not to rush to improve his realm, he unknowingly broke through to the fifth level of the Golden elixir.
In the following days, he wanted to relax, not practicing swordsmanship or copying scriptures, and continued to pass the time in the winter by lying on the bamboo chair.
...
Lying on the bamboo chair, he closed his eyes. The shed was very quiet, with only the faint sound of the charcoal fire in the stove.
The water in the pot had not yet boiled, and at this moment, a loud "thumping" sound suddenly came from the cliff.
Li Ye was too lazy to go out to see it. In this terrible weather, no one except the old ape and the old wolf would want to come.
I was thinking about whether you would come or not. If you came, I would boil water and make tea. I would be lazy for a few days no matter what.
The door of the wooden shed was gently pushed open. Li Ye still closed his eyes and muttered: "Senior, please make tea by yourself today. I want to lie here quietly for a few days and enjoy my life. "
After a while, there was no movement in the room, but something fluffy twitched under my eyelids...
He opened his eyes, opened his mouth, and held the edge of the bamboo chair with both hands. His whole body was extremely stiff, and he looked as if he had seen a ghost.
He felt like he had seen a ghost at this time.
What stood before his eyes was a small, red face like a porcelain doll.
The person who came in was not the old ape, but Xiao Qing who came down from the mountain. Xiao Qing was wearing a green cotton-padded jacket.
Li Ye stretched out his hand from the animal hide, pointed at the door and said, "You are mentally ill. Why did you come up here in such a violent wind and snow? Don't you want your life?"
Xiaoqing took out her silk scarf and wiped the water stains on her face, while smiling and saying, "There must be something important coming up now."
Li Ye pointed to the steaming kettle and said weakly: "Go and make tea by yourself. I don't want to do anything today. I just want to lie here."
Xiaoqing looked at the young man lying on the bamboo chair with a look of disgust on his face: "Are you sick again and are too lazy to do your favorite thing like boiling water and making tea?"
"Do you know why I came up here today in the wind and snow? I was flying in the wind and snow and almost couldn't find my direction. Don't you feel pain in your heart?"
Li Ye was startled, looked at her blankly and said, "Then tell me about such a heavy snowstorm. If you didn't accompany Mu Mu in Fengyun City, why would you risk getting lost and falling to your death?"
Xiaoqing took a deep breath of air and looked at him fiercely: "That's because... you are an elder brother. Look at you lying there like an idiot. If I didn't kill you, you wouldn't even think about it."
Li Ye lifted up the animal skin, jumped up from the bamboo chair, hugged Xiao Qing and said, "My mother gave birth? Is it a sister or a brother?"
"Isn't it just the winter solstice? I thought I would have to wait until spring for good news."
Xiao Qing said with a smile: "It's natural to give birth when the time comes. You have an extra sister, and Mu Mu will be your sister."
Li Ye touched his head and murmured: "Am I going to be an older brother now? I never thought my mother would really give birth to a younger sister for me."
As he spoke, he sat at the table and started pouring water, scalding the pot, and warming the cup.
Thinking that he had been away from the academy for more than a year, and that he could not stay at home even when his sister was born, he felt that he was both happy and sad at the same time.
Xiao Qing looked at his appearance and said calmly: "It's not your fault. You can't go down Tianshan Mountain with your own ability."
"Mr. originally wanted to go up to Tianshan Mountain to spend the winter, but then Sister Li persuaded him and decided not to come up. With Mr. Li and Sister Li down below, you can rest assured to practice on the mountain."
"Mumu suddenly became a sister when she passed away. She was so happy that she ran to your mother's side every day, clamoring to hold her sister and play with her."
Ning Que smiled and said, "I haven't seen them for a long time. I wonder how they are now? Have Mu Mu grown taller?"
Xiaoqing couldn't help but laugh, covered her mouth and said, "She has only been separated from you for more than half a year. She has grown much taller, at least I haven't seen it."
Li Ye poured a cup of hot tea for Xiaoqing and handed it to her. Looking at her slightly red and steaming face, he said with some emotion: "I hope she lives a good life in the city, so I can too." Just feel free to practice in the mountains."
"Did my sister have a name? Does she look like dad or my mother?"
"Of course she looks like your mother. When she was born, she looked like a cute baby bunny and didn't even open her eyes." Xiao Qing said while gently drinking the hot tea in the cup without raising her head.
"Your father and your mother are worried about the name of your sister."
"Master said that your sister was born on the winter solstice and should be named: Li Dongxue. Your mother was not happy and insisted on calling her Li Xiaoxue. I came here to tell you the good news, and also to ask your opinion. It also means Master and Madam.”
When Li Ye heard this, he couldn't help but frown, thinking that he was not a fortune teller, so he didn't know how to name.
After thinking for a while, he whispered softly: "I think it's better to call me Xiaoxue. It sounds cheerful and joyful. Dongxue feels a bit heavy. I think my sister will live a simpler life in the future."
"When you go back, tell my parents what I think and say that I like my sister to be called Li Xiaoxue."
"Xiaoxue, Xiaoxue, this name sounds really cheerful. Mumu and I also like this name. Okay, I will tell them your thoughts after I come down from the mountain." Xiaoqing said, touching her belly.
Li Ye looked at her appearance and laughed. Pointing to the outside of the shed, he said: "You go and call that stupid dog out of the cave, and I will roast antelope meat for you. It just so happened that Senior Old Wolf brought one here yesterday, and we just ate a little. It's a blessing for you." "
When Xiao Qing heard this, he put down his teacup, pushed open the door of the wooden shed with a bang, and ran to the cave to find Xiao Bai.
Li Ye stood up, took a leg of antelope meat from under the eaves of the wooden shed, put it on the table and started to sprinkle salt and spices...
There was a burst of laughter, and Xiaoqing walked in with Xiaobai in her arms.
Li Ye looked at Xiao Bai, held the door open and said, "Xiao Bai, go and call Senior Old Ape over and tell him I'll treat him to a drink."
Xiaobai whined twice to express his dissatisfaction.
Li Ye glared at it, and it was so frightened that it jumped out of Xiaoqing's arms and ran out of the door in a gust of wind.
"If you bully it again, I can take it down the mountain to play with Mu Mu." Xiao Qing looked at Li Ye dissatisfied and sat down against the table. "I have to go down the mountain after eating. My husband is afraid that something will happen to me on the way and wants me to go back immediately."
After saying that, she waved her hand, and a small Jinhe appeared in her hand. She stretched out her hand and handed it to Li Ye.
"I took a closer look at your realm just now. It seems that you have broken through to the fifth level of the Golden Core, right?"
Li Ye took Jinhe, opened it gently, and saw a yellow pill inside. He looked at Xiao Qing and said, "I just broke through a few nights ago. Why did you give me this pill? Sir, I won't let you." I’m anxious to improve my level.”
Xiao Qing looked at him and sighed softly: "My husband asked me to give you the elixir. It was brought from us. He said that if you are only at the first level of the Golden elixir, you don't need to take it. As long as If it weighs more than two, I will watch you eat it."
"This elixir is called Rongdan Pill. It is poison to all practitioners, but it is good medicine to you."
When Li Ye heard this, he immediately put down the knife he was using to cut meat and yelled, "Sir, are you trying to poison me to death? Are you going to kill me if you just allow me not to see you?"
"What's your name? Listen to me." Xiao Qing rolled his eyes at Li Ye.
"After taking the Rongdan Pill, no matter how many realms you are in, it will melt and integrate the true energy and energy in the body within one day, lowering the realm to the first level. Sir, he said that your realm has improved too fast, and I am afraid that you will not be able to do it in the future. There will be trouble."
"That's why I asked you to take this medicine to lower your realm and make each level of the Golden Core realm stronger, preparing you for your future transformation into an infant."
Xiaoqing looked at him and continued.
"You idiot, don't you understand Sir's painstaking efforts? Do you think this medicine is just cabbage? Remember, it is extremely precious even here. How can ordinary practitioners afford it?"
Li Ye patted his chest, cold sweat broke out on his head, and murmured: "As long as it doesn't cost me my life, it doesn't matter even if I get down to foundation building. I'm really not in a hurry about improving my realm. These few breakthroughs It’s also something that can’t be helped.”
Xiao Qing chuckled, pointed at him and said: "Of all the practitioners, who are not looking for elixirs and elixirs all day long, desperately trying to improve their own realm, but you are the only fool who worries all day long that you will accidentally break your realm." ."
After saying that, he took out a baggage from his back and placed it on the table. He also took out a dozen jars of burning knives from his space ring and placed them neatly on the ground on Li Ye's body.
He looked at him and said: "The wine is for the two seniors. The contents in the bag are the peanuts and apricot cakes prepared for you by my wife, as well as two pieces of clothes. Is there anything you want me to take down the mountain?" "
Li Ye thought for a while, took out the animal skin bag that Old Wolf brought from the space ring, opened it carefully, revealing the Tianshan Snow Lotus inside, took out two, looked at Xiao Qing and said: "Lend me your silk scarf, I'll use it." Wrap this snow lotus and bring it to my mother."
Xiao Qing took out the silk scarf and handed it to Li Ye, and said in surprise: "Where did you get the ability to pick the snow lotus from the mountain?"
Li Ye looked at her and said, "Do you want Mu Mu? This is a little thought that Senior Lang gave to my mother, asking you to take it down the mountain. One for my mother and father, you can make soup, porridge, and medicine, and the other I gave it to my sister, and when she was able to eat, my mother tore it into pieces and fed it to her slowly, which is said to change her physique."
Xiao Qing nodded and said with a smile: "Mu Mu and I have eaten it long ago, and it has no effect anymore. Just leave it to your mother and sister. I didn't expect that Senior Wolf was so lucky. I went to the top of the mountain a few times before. I looked around and couldn’t find this good thing.”
"You're not bad as a brother. Your sister's body will definitely not be any worse than yours after eating this snow lotus."
Li Ye took off the kettle from the stove and grilled the marinated meat on it.
After thinking for a while, he said: "You can bring back a leg of antelope meat later and let Mr. Li, Mr. Li, my father and Mu Mu cook it in a hot pot. You can also taste the taste of the meat cooked in the hot pot."
