"What's there to talk about? I'm not familiar with you." Li Xiuyuan looked at him and smiled.
"Give me two jars of medicinal wine. My sister said that drinking your wine can break through the realm. She asked you to buy one jar, and you give me another jar." The little fat man laughed.
"I don't have medicinal wine, and I don't sell wine!" Li Xiuyuan glanced at the master after speaking.
Hearing this, the little fat man raised his eyebrows, looked at him and said: "My sister wrote a letter saying that you were the one who caused the two guys from the Demon Realm and the Demon Realm to break up that night. If you don't help me, I will kill you." Talk about it."
He underestimated the little fat man, knowing that he had magical talismans and his medicinal wine. He also knew that Jun Buyu and Hua Tianyu's breakthrough that night was because of his medicinal wine.
"The elder of the Weapon Refining Pavilion is my uncle!" The little fat man's words suddenly made Li Xiuyuan's eyes light up. The rust on his iron sword could not be removed, and he had always wanted to try it in the Weapon Refining Pavilion.
The master glanced at the two of them and couldn't help but laugh.
The little fat man in front of him made it clear that he was sure to take Li Xiuyuan, and Li Xiuyuan really needed to go to the Weapon Refining Pavilion to try whether his iron sword could regain its former glory.
However, the master also wanted to see how the fat man convinced Li Xiuyuan.
Facing the little fat man, Li Xiuyuan was not afraid of his tricks at all, and asked with a smile: "What are you talking about? Do you want me to go to the Weapon Refining Pavilion to have a look after I give you what you want?" "
Li Xiuyuan is not a formal disciple, and there are many places in the academy that he cannot enter casually.
The Master looked at the two of them with a half-smile, wondering if Li Xiuyuan could enter the Weapon Refining Pavilion to practice. It would not be a bad thing if the little fat man took him in to practice.
"Do you want me to try it out? It seems that my old uncle has followed the disciples from the academy back to his hometown."
The little fat man hinted to Li Xiuyuan that he could try it while the elder was away.
"I don't know how to refine weapons, so it's useless if I go there?" Li Xiuyuan looked at him with a smile and said, "Don't you know how to do it?"
The little fat man shook his head and smiled: "I don't know how, I can only take you in for a walk, but my old uncle has a lot of books on weapon refining, I can take you to look at it, don't you like reading?"
Li Xiuyuan almost blurted out, "Take me to have a look."
Looking at the master in front of him, he reacted in time, swallowed back those curious words, and said calmly: "In that case, I will try it with you tomorrow."
Regardless of whether he could succeed or not, he wanted to try it. After all, the iron sword was too ugly in his hand. Although it could cut iron like clay, it didn't look good?
When the little fat man heard this, he immediately became energetic. He looked up at the master and asked Li Xiuyuan softly: "When will you give me the medicinal wine?"
Li Xiuyuan glared at him and said with a smile: "It's useless to give it to you now, at least we have to wait until spring."
I just added the herbs not long ago, so I have to wait until spring for the effects to take effect. Even the master resisted the desire to get a jar to drink.
The fat man looked at the master and smiled and said, "Teacher, will this guy lie to me? You know I am very timid."
When the master heard this, he laughed and said, "Aren't you afraid that your uncle will turn around and punish you?"
The little fat man shook his head and replied nonchalantly: "I just took him for a walk. At most, he read books and learned how to refine weapons. There is nothing less."
In fact, what he wants to say is, I'm not afraid! You can't beat me, just give me a beating, I'm thick-skinned and not afraid.
Thinking that drinking Li Xiuyuan's medicinal wine can break through two realms, even if he gets a beating, it will be worth it. He hasn't broken through for a long time, and his companions are already laughing at him.
The two of them made an appointment to go to the Weapon Refining Pavilion. The little fat man said goodbye to his wife all over the floor, and walked out of the yard without paying any attention to the snowstorm in the sky.
Watching the little fat man leave, Li Xiuyuan asked his master, "Teacher, is what this guy said reliable?"
The master glanced at him and said with a smile: "The elder of the Refining Pavilion is from the Dachu Kingdom. Everyone knows this! He is a stingy guy and even ignores me."
Li Xiuyuan frowned slightly, looked at him and asked, "Will there be any misunderstanding if I go there rashly? What if the elders find out?"
The master looked at him quietly and asked softly: "If you don't want to learn the knowledge of weapon refining, don't go!"
Li Xiuyuan said the main thing, but his expression was calm as usual, and he said with a smile: "I actually want to try to remove the rust on this iron sword. I have tried many times."
Hearing that he responded so naturally, the master was stunned. After a moment of silence, he said, "Then go and try. What if you have the talent to refine weapons?"
Li Xiuyuan smiled and said: "If it really happens, I will get a knife or a sword for Wei Qing then."
The Master looked at his face and said: "There are too many unpredictable things in the world. You have to try to find out. You are still young now, and you have plenty of time to learn more knowledge."
After a while, Li Xiuyuan laughed at himself and replied: "What if it succeeds?"
The master replied: "Then you have the possibility of becoming a master of weapon refining, but is that your pursuit?"
When Li Xiuyuan heard this, he looked at him and smiled bitterly: "That's definitely not the case. My goal is to one day go to the other world to find my master. Isn't that where the master is going too?"
There were only two of them in the bamboo hut. Qing Ying had flown to nowhere, and Wei Qing was still chopping firewood in the kitchen and backyard.
With a solemn expression on his face, Fu Zishan looked at Li Xiuyuan and said, "In this life, we always have to make some choices. When the manpower is finally exhausted, you can't practice all your skills to the extreme."
Li Xiuyuan looked at him and said softly: "Teacher is right. I'm afraid no one has been able to perfect the weapon refining, medicine refining and cultivation for thousands of years, right?"
The master glanced at him and said softly: "Now that the matter is over, you can learn as much as you can before that old man Huangfu comes back."
Li Xiuyuan couldn't help laughing when he heard it: "There is always a feeling of being a thief."
The master glanced at him and said seriously: "If you don't have a husband to teach you a skill, then it's a good thing to learn it secretly? Don't you understand this?"
The master's words shocked Li Xiuyuan, and he said repeatedly: "Teacher, I'm going to give it a try, and I won't say anything else."
The Master looked at him and continued: "I don't know how long I can stay. You can learn more things in the academy, which will be good for you in the future. Just be careful not to indulge in it too much."
Li Xiuyuan listened to the master's sad tone and thought about the old Taoist priest who had left. He couldn't help but feel a little sad. He looked at Feixue outside the hall and said softly: "There are too many unsatisfactory things in this world. I don't know when I will Only then can we find our biological parents.”
Ever since the old Taoist priest told Li Xiuyuan about his life experience, he would have this idea from time to time. He didn't know when he would be able to see his parents. He wanted to ask them why they abandoned him...
"Nine times out of ten things will go wrong when you live in this world, so why do you care? Jun Wuyou is said to be an invincible opponent in the same realm, but you survived from his hands. This is a miracle!"
The master didn't want his student to indulge, so he had to cheer Li Xiuyuan up.
Li Xiuyuan thought about all the encounters he had had since coming down the mountain, and couldn't help looking at his master and laughing: "Teacher, I went down the mountain twice, and I met bandits both times. They are really difficult for me."
Suddenly he thought of something and asked: "What about... Ying'er?"
The master waved his hand and said with a smile: "It's cold and freezing, which is perfect for it to practice. I'll let it stay on the mountain for a few more days, so it can't stay in a daze with an old man like me every day."
"No wonder I haven't seen his shadow in the past few days." Li Xiuyuan said softly.
The master put down the tea cup in his hand, looked at Li Xiuyuan and asked, "How is Wei Qing doing in the kitchen? Does the little guy have any complaints?"
Li Xiuyuan said honestly: "It's not bad. It will probably take about ten days to get used to it. You might not get used to it at first."
The master said angrily: "If he doesn't practice well, I will drive him home to stay for a while to let him understand how difficult this opportunity is."
Li Xiuyuan laughed twice and said, "Teacher, don't scare him. He is still a child and needs to be coaxed."
After hearing what he said, the master couldn't help but look at him and laughed, and asked: "Were you a child when you were with me? When did I ever coax you?"
Li Xiuyuan was stunned: "My legs and feet were not good when I was with the teacher. I am already grateful to the teacher for taking him in. How can I dare to think too much?"
The master was startled, looked at him and asked: "At that time, when your legs and feet were inconvenient, you hoped to be cured soon. Now that you are cured, you have learned to pretend to be a pig and eat the tiger? Does Wei Qing know that?"
"I didn't tell him. He never seemed to care about his disciple's disability."
For Wei Qing, from the first day he met Li Xiuyuan, he only had eyes for his big brother, and he never seemed to care about Li Xiuyuan's leg disability.
This is one of the reasons why Li Xiuyuan likes him, because in his eyes Wei Qing and his son are clean and pure people.
"You have to understand that Wei Qing in front of you is like a clean lake. Whether you can teach him or not depends on how our master and disciple teach him."
The master waved his hand and said: "Don't let him come into contact with the little fat guy. That little guy is not a fuel-efficient lamp."
Li Xiuyuan gave him more hot tea, lowered his head and thought for a while, looked at him and said, "I will stay in the academy and let Wei Qing chop wood for two years without any worries. If he can't persist even now, he won't have to work hard in the future."
The master shook his head gently and said seriously: "Wei Qing's situation is different from yours. You have to coax when you need to. Doesn't the dean still want to recruit a few students from the town?"
Looking at the Master's appearance, Li Xiuyuan said silently in his heart: "Teacher, if you can't do anything to Wei Qing, then leave it to me, the student."
...
Early on the first morning, Li Xiuyuan accompanied Wei Qing to the backyard of the kitchen.
"Brother, I spent the whole day chopping firewood yesterday. My arms and waist hurt so much today. Can I take a day off?" Wei Qing looked at Li Xiuyuan and asked with a grimace.
"You already had dinner last night, so don't eat at lunch today, okay?"
Li Xiuyuan looked at him and laughed softly.
Wei Qing was stunned, looked at him and asked, "How can eating like this be compared to chopping firewood?"
Li Xiuyuan smiled and said: "Why not? You ate yesterday, and you have to eat again today! You chopped firewood yesterday, and you have to continue chopping today! From now on, except when you go to the mountains with your teacher to practice, you have to eat first every day. Finish the job in this kitchen.”
"I'm here to practice, not to be a handyman!" Wei Qing yelled.
Li Xiuyuan was delighted, looked at him and said with a smile: "That's okay, you go home first. When the academy goes to the mayor to recruit students, you can apply again!"
"Brother, you are unreasonable!" Wei Qing reluctantly raised the hatchet.
"Hurry up and don't waste time. You have to go back to practice with the teacher in the afternoon. Don't give yourself a reason to be lazy."
Li Xiuyuan said loudly.
"Brother, you are so trembling, just like my mother! I'm afraid of you. I'm just chopping firewood, not going up the mountain to hunt tigers!" Wei Qing waved the hatchet in his hand and chopped down...
"Didn't you have dinner yesterday? Even with this little effort, you won't be able to complete today's mission by the end of the day!"
"You get out of the way, I'll give you a signal, lower your waist, do a horse stance, use your arms hard..."
"Faster, harder! Hey, did you forget to sharpen your knife yesterday? I told you to sharpen it after chopping wood that day."
Standing under the eaves of the courtyard, Li Xiuyuan kept talking.
