Looking at Xiao Long'er, who had only one head exposed, Li Xiuyuan smiled and said, "Sister, have you seen Long Hongchen?" After speaking, he waved away the snow stains on the sword body with his hand.
He wiped the Shura Sword clean on his sleeve and put it into the sword box.
Xiao Long'er couldn't help but stepped out and held his hand and walked inside. As he walked, he said, "Xiao Long'er likes Long Hongchen very much. From now on, I will let him practice with Third Sister."
Li Xiuyuan pushed open the heavy door, looked at her and smiled: "Who is the third sister?"
Xiao Long'er chuckled and said: "Of course it's Xiao Long'er! The eldest sister is..."
"Xiao Long'er, hurry up and call the master to come in for dinner. The porridge is ready!" At this moment, Nangong Ruyu's voice came from the side hall.
"I've already eaten with Long Hongchen this morning, you can eat it yourself!"
Just after he finished speaking, Li Xiuyuan discovered that Long Hongchen was actually holding another bowl of meat porridge. He couldn't help but shook his head and said: "Hongchen, you eat more to grow taller... Little Long'er should eat too."
Long Hongchen looked at him and chuckled: "Brother really didn't lie to me. There are many sisters here!"
When Nangong Ruyu heard this, she couldn't help but look at him and said with a smile: "Brother, are you happy or unhappy?"
Long Hongchen nodded heavily and said with a smile: "I'm happy, Long Hongchen finally has a sister!"
Song Tianyu was annoyed by Li Xiuyuan's imprudence and said with a smile: "It's good now, I have become his big sister. Are you happy to be an older brother?!"
After reviving her life, she finally looked down on the false reputation in front of her and was willing to follow Xiao Longer and Long Hongchen to regain the family relationship in the past.
Xiaoqing wanted to interrupt but didn't dare to speak.
Li Xiuyuan looked at the group of guys in front of him and felt very happy in his heart. He couldn't help but laugh: "The winter solstice will be in two days. Xiaolong'er, have you gone hunting with Sister Xiaoqing these days?"
Xiao Qing finally said: "It's enough to eat, just take out your wine."
Xiao Long'er looked at his brother's back, rolled his eyes, and took it into consideration. He laughed and said: "If you want to talk about delicious food, naturally I have to let my brother take Xiao Long'er and his younger brother to go hunting in the mountains. My brother hasn't taken Xiao Long with him for a long time. I went to play..."
Li Xiuyuan was suffocated and didn't know what to say for a moment.
Then he said harmoniously: "You can go out for fun, but hunting is not necessary. Long Hongchen and I shot a black bear a few days ago. There is still plenty of meat, and I left a bear paw for you..."
Song Tianyu on the side sighed and said leisurely: "I just happen to have some honey here, I will use it to brew for two nights, and then stew it for dinner on the night of the winter solstice..."
When Nan Ruyu heard this, she cheered: "Bear paw, Yu'er and her master never tasted it in Xuantian Temple and Tianshan Mountain..."
Long Hongchen chuckled and said, "Brother has already cooked one for Long Hongchen to eat!"
Xiao Longer's heart moved, he looked at Long Hongchen and said: "Fifth brother, if you have delicious food in the future, you must give it to fourth sister first, do you know?"
Upon hearing this, Li Xiuyuan couldn't help but shake his head, pointed to the porridge on the table and said, "You'd better eat first, I'll make tea, and I'll talk after I'm full."
After saying that, he took out the tea set, boiled water, and dropped a few pieces of spiritual tea into the pot.
The Shura battlefield was about to close, so he had to celebrate a little.
...
While making tea, I was thinking about arrangements for heading west to Baihua Valley and then Emerald Lake to Tianmen Pass after the beginning of spring.
He thought that Xiao Long'er and the three girls must go to the Devil's Eye with Song Tianyu to clean up the battlefield. He wondered whether he should hand over Long Hongchen to Song Ruyu and take them with him.
But suddenly he remembered what his master had told him, and sighed secretly in his heart. He should bear the trouble he caused himself.
With Long Hongchen's current situation, he wouldn't dare to hand him over to a few women.
At this time, Li Xiuyuan was in a much better mood. He looked at Long Hongchen with a gentle smile on his face and said softly: "Long Hongchen, from now on, you and your sisters can sleep in this side hall."
Although he was worried about letting Long Hongchen go on an adventure with the four women, it did not prevent Long Hongchen from living with them here.
Long Hongchen, who had already eaten a bowl of porridge, touched his stomach and said, "Brother, I'm full again..."
"Go to the back to find some water to wash up, and I'll make a bed for you!"
Li Xiuyuan and the two ran wildly all night, and neither of them slept well. They thought that Long Hongchen had to settle down and he had to go to sleep for a while.
Nangong Ruyu looked at Li Xiuyuan who was taking out his sleeping bag and asked, "Master, do you want Yu'er to help?"
"No, you go on eating."
While making the bed, Li Xiuyuan looked at the four girls and said, "I ran all the way last night and didn't sleep much. I have to go to sleep for a while."
After washing up, Long Hongchen got into his sleeping bag, looked at Li Xiuyuan and said with a smile, "Brother, don't leave Long Hongchen behind!"
For no reason, Li Xiuyuan felt a pain in his heart. He touched his head and said with a smile, "Brother is sleeping in the main hall in front. If you wake up, come find me there."
Li Xiuyuan felt an indescribable love and pity for Long Hongchen, who had lost his parents, and thought that this guy's fate was much more miserable than his own.
Long Hongchen nodded, got into his sleeping bag, yawned, and said with a smile, "Long Hongchen has a brother and a sister. It's great!"
Song Tianyu, who had eaten meat porridge, sat at the table, took a few sips from his tea cup, turned his head and asked Li Xiuyuan: "Do you think the two legions know that the demon army has withdrawn?"
Li Xiuyuan was stunned for a moment, then smiled coldly: "In my opinion, I'm afraid they won't understand it after spring starts, and they think the demon army is afraid of them."
Nangong Ruyu, who was sitting aside, was shocked after hearing this, looked at him and asked: "Master, what is going on? Isn't the Shura battlefield closed? How can this army of demons leave?"
Li Xiuyuan looked at her and sighed and said with a smile: "They don't want to continue fighting, so naturally there are ways to leave from here..."
Xiao Qing then frowned and asked, "You mean this battle doesn't have to continue anymore, and we can leave early?"
At this time, Xiaoqing was only hanging on the Phoenix Valley above the nine heavens. Although she did not believe that she would have any relatives in the world besides her master and Li Xiuyuan.
Li Xiuyuan chuckled and said: "After the spring begins, let me take you to the Devil's Eye to make a fortune... You can give me half of your share. I have been busy there for several days and spent a lot of effort... ..”
Xiao Qing was startled, then smiled and said: "If this is really the case... don't worry, Xiao Qing promises to give half of it to you and Long Hongchen. Even the eldest sister won't dare to take your share."
Li Xiuyuan thought about it for a while and then said seriously: "You also know that after the Shura battlefield is over, the place I want to go back to does not have the resources for me and Long Hongchen to practice. This is not to compete with you for opportunities."
Upon hearing this, Song Tianyu shook his head and sighed: "If you think about it carefully, this is also true. After all, the heaven you are going to may not even have many spirit stones, let alone fairy spirit stones."
"Speaking of which..."
Li Xiuyuan groaned, looked at the three women and said, "Clean up the spirit stones on your bodies and give them all to me when you leave Longmen Pass. You won't need them in the future anyway."
Xiao Ling'er looked at him and said with a smile: "Xiao Long'er won't give it to my brother, but Xiao Long'er will get it with my elder brother and younger brother."
The side hall suddenly became quiet. After a long time, Song Tianyu said, "How about I take Long Hongchen away with me? If I take one more person, I will take him with me."
Li Xiuyuan shook his head, thinking that Long Hongchen didn't dare to let you take him to the Phoenix Valley. If he knew where he came from, he didn't know how much trouble would be caused.
"He should follow me, because I want to teach him how to practice swordsmanship." Li Xiuyuan thought for a moment, and this refusal was probably the best reason.
Just as the old Taoist said, Li Xiuyuan would not let Long Hongchen leave his side until he grew up.
At worst, it's a little more troublesome. Why did you bring Xiao Long'er here differently?
If Song Tianyu were to lead the four of them, he might not be able to bear it. From Li Xiuyuan's point of view, even Long Hongchen wouldn't agree. He didn't want the little guy to just adapt to such a life and have to be separated from him again in the blink of an eye.
Nangong Ruyu on the side frowned and said: "Master, in the future, Yu'er can also teach his younger brother to read and write. As long as he is more careful, Xiaoqing also has experience in teaching Xiao Longer, so he can teach him more."
Xiaoqing didn't care at all. She thought that she was taught to read and write by her master and Li Xiuyuan, and she patiently learned how to play the piano.
Xiao Longzuo clapped his hands, rubbed his belly and said with a smile: "Xiao Long'er can also teach my younger brother!"
Li Xiuyuan sighed, looked at her and said with a smile: "Well, while there are still many days left before Chun, you can teach him to read "The Rhythm Enlightenment" first."
After three courses of tea, the three girls were overjoyed when they knew they no longer had to fight.
The rest of the days were spent going crazy on the Shura battlefield, looking for some elixirs, and then going to the Devil's Eye to make a fortune. This was the life they had before they left.
"Come on, after three cups of tea, I'm going to take a nap." Li Xiuyuan laughed, "You three are all top-notch masters now, and I don't need to worry about the past for you."
After a pause, he asked: "Xiao Long'er will follow his sister to practice sword practice later..."
"There is also Third Sister." Xiao Long'er shouted: "After Second Sister and Third Sister changed their swords, their dancing is really ugly now, even worse than Xiao Long'er."
Li Xiuyuan nodded. In fact, he wasn't too worried. He could just talk about such things as cultivation. After all, he couldn't control the two of them for their entire lives.
Is it possible that after becoming extraordinary, I still have to urge you to practice every day?
Nangong Ruyu sighed and said with a smile: "Master Yu'er is afraid it will take a few more years to get used to this new Zhanxue."
Xiaoqing also curled her lips to express her agreement with Nangong Ruyu's words.
After a long silence, Li Xiuyuan said: "You are not in a hurry, so why are you in a hurry?"
Phoenix Spirit nodded, frowned slightly and said, "That's true. Cultivation is not something that happens overnight. When I follow you to Phoenix Valley, don't be lazy anymore."
Xiao Long'er scratched his head and said: "I want to be with my brother, and my younger brother... the second sister and the third sister. When Xiao Long'er is not here from now on, you must obey the eldest sister's words!"
Li Xiuyuan was stunned, looked at Xiao Longer blankly and asked: "Who is the eldest sister?"
"I'm their eldest sister, can't I?" Song Tianyu glared at him and said quietly.
.....
Back in the main hall, Li Xiuyuan lit a charcoal fire as usual. Although he was not afraid of the cold, he did not want to use his energy to resist the severe cold outside the hall.
Thinking that I had not done what the old Taoist priest had told me, I wanted to take advantage of this to get rid of important things.
So all the things in the space ring were moved out, and only when they piled up into a small mountain in front of him did he start sorting.
First, he put away the space rings on the Shura battlefield. Most of them are probably fairy stones that can be placed on his body, and then there are the space rings obtained from the wild world, Tianyu City, and Tianxiang City.
He hadn't had time to check many of them one by one. He planned to save them after he went to the Five Realms and find a quiet place to slowly pass the long time required to transform into a mortal.
Then there were the Master's books copied in the academy, the scriptures copied in Tianfeng City, and the books in Tianyu City... Only then did he realize that he had copied countless books.
According to the method taught by the old Taoist priest, he classified all the books and put them into the space of the jade plate. Including the space ring on the Shura battlefield, this will be a training resource for him, Xiao Longer and Long Hongchen in the future.
There were only some unimportant spiritual stones, apricot wine, and various monster meats placed in the space ring Feng Ruyu gave him, as well as the apricot meat brought back from Huangquan Village.
As usual, the swords and clothes were not stored in the jade plate space.
There were many kinds of spirit wine, spirit peach stuffed meat, and many more, and he put them all into the space of the jade plate one by one.
It took a whole hour to finally clean up the hill-like space ring in front of him, leaving only one space ring that showed the power of time. The space ring he got on Tianshan Mountain was held in his heart.
This is the space ring left by Monk Po Xu, which carries all his memories of the five realms.
I took a gentle breath and let my mind sink into it. After some exploration, I finally found a pile of things I had never cared about in the corner...a pile of wine jars of different sizes.
