In the dusty living room of Yunqi Temple, the white-bearded old monk gently stroked a strand of his white beard and couldn't help but smile and said: "It's interesting. If you don't want to climb, I won't climb."
Because there were guests in the temple, Liao Chen strangely stopped paying attention to Shang Huasheng from Wentian Peak today, but was thinking about the next disciples from the temple going to Kunlun.
After hearing what the white-bearded old monk said, he couldn't help but ask: "What happened today? Senior brother, are you afraid that Watson will give up halfway? But I like him more and more."
"Not at all?" The white-bearded old monk said slowly: "A girl went to Wentian Peak. Maybe Shenfeng deliberately wanted to test the girl...?"
"There is such a thing. Where did the girl crawl to?" Liao Chen looked at the strange expression of the white-bearded monk.
Asked: "Besides, Watson is still here, doesn't he know how to explain this truth?"
The white-bearded old monk smiled and said: "Watson is too timid. Maybe he also wants to see if the girl can bear the pressure and climb to the top of the mountain."
"This is really an interesting guy." Liao Chen sighed: "That's fine, the top of the mountain has the scenery of the top of the mountain, and the mountainside has another scenery."
The white-bearded old monk chuckled and said, "You should be careful whether the girl from the academy will cause trouble for Watson. If she really wants to, do you, a master, want to help him?"
Liao Chen was startled when he heard this, thought for a moment and said, "Let him make his own choice in this matter, as long as there is no trouble. If she doesn't think it's my disciple, it's good for Watson to practice quietly here."
"Then I don't know. The people from Phoenix Mountain have already arrived today, and they are expected to arrive tomorrow from the academy. They will stay for a few days at most, and then we will go to Kunlun together."
The white-bearded old monk said quietly: "I hope they won't make any big noise in the past few days. After all, this is Yunqi Temple, not Phoenix Mountain, nor Zhongshu Academy."
In fact, Liao Chen had been worried about Watson because of this matter. Although Watson had begun to practice the second level of the formless body, his disabled left leg was not recovering well.
Dragging a disabled left leg... In his opinion, this didn't feel like a test of Watson, but more like a test of the upcoming academy girl.
Watson didn't say the reason for this, and as a master, there was no need for him to tell it for him.
After all, Watson's sister has accepted everything her brother is doing after a summer of practice and life.
If the girl in the academy cannot accept it, that is also a normal reaction of the world.
To make a beautiful girl from the golden elixir and a disabled boy from the Qi Gathering Realm lower their heads? How can this be?
Even if Watson is already at the third level of foundation building, he may be able to break through to the golden elixir realm tomorrow spring.
However, this is a secret between the master and the apprentice. Even Watson's sister Hua Yu does not know her brother's true cultivation.
Thinking that his disciple had learned how to pretend to be a pig and eat a tiger, Liao Chen couldn't help but be stunned. After a while, he said: "Didn't you say: I am lucky to gain, but I am destined to lose? Watson should understand this truth."
"You, a master, be careful that Watson's parents come back to you one day to ask for this explanation."
The white-bearded old monk smiled and said: "Compared with his marriage to the academy girl, I want to see him conquer the abyss. After all, that is where his practice begins."
Liao Chen clapped his hands and said directly: "When these guys go to Kunlun, Watson should also start his own practice. Senior brother, don't be impatient."
"Why are you not in a hurry?" The white-bearded old monk sighed and replied leisurely: "I have been waiting for this day for a thousand years. I hope Watson can give me a surprise before I leave!"
"There will be such a day." Liao Chen couldn't help but say: "He has conquered Wentian Peak, and his next goal is that place that neither you nor I can go to... Actually, I am also looking forward to it."
…
What surprised Watson was that when he was halfway down the mountain, he found the girl playing in the mountains like an elf.
At that moment, I couldn't help but look back at Wentian Peak, wondering, could it be that your pressure is only on the stone steps?
After thinking about it, Watson still shouted: "Who is that? I'm going down the mountain."
The girl who was looking down suddenly heard Watson's call and couldn't help shouting: "Oh, I finally expected you to come. I'm starving to death. Do you have anything to eat?"
Like a storm, the girl flew to Watson in an instant, looking as heavy and difficult as before.
So Watson finally believed that it was Shenshan who played a joke on the girl. Unexpectedly, the girl made the mistake and started playing on the mountainside.
This... Watson was speechless for a moment.
After thinking about it, he took the steamed bun wrapped in a handkerchief and handed it to the girl: "I only have this, do you want it?"
Who knew that the girl didn't dislike it, so she took it and pinched a corner of the handkerchief and took a bite: "As long as you have something to eat, thank you. What's your name? My name is Tantai Xiaoyu."
Watson nodded, took another kettle and handed it over: "Eat slowly, I only have this one steamed bun. If you are still hungry, you have to go down the mountain to find something to eat."
After thinking about it, I thought it was wrong. There is no fasting meal in the temple at night.
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but look at the girl and laugh: "It seems that the temple does not serve vegetarian meals at night... My name is Watson."
After saying that, Watson continued to walk down the mountain. Today, because of the girl, the sacred mountain released its pressure, which took him an hour longer than usual.
He was afraid that his sister would be anxious at home and would have to go down the mountain quickly.
"Wait for me……"
While eating the steamed buns, the girl followed Watson down. The stone steps without the pressure were no longer a daunting path in her eyes.
"What do you want to eat when you are hungry at night? How about I go eat with you... Don't worry, I won't eat your food in vain. Oh, please slow down, okay?"
The girl followed Watson, shouting all the way.
When Watson opened the door to the small courtyard, his sister was not at home, and the living room was empty.
Watson, who had never experienced this before, could only look at the girl and said: "There is well water there. Do you want to wash up? I will make a pot of tea."
"I didn't expect you to live in such a big courtyard by yourself."
The girl screamed: "I smell so bad, I have to wash myself up before drinking tea."
Watson didn't say anything, put away the heavy sword on his back, fetched a pot of water and went into the living room to boil water and make tea.
By the time the girl washed up and entered the living room, Watson was already holding a cup of hot tea in his hand, looking at her and saying, "Drink a cup of tea first, and I'll cook later."
Watson didn't know what to do with this uninvited girl in front of him. Fortunately, his sister was here. At worst, he would throw this trouble to his sister.
Just because he didn't know whether this guy came from Phoenix Mountain like his sister, or from that mysterious academy.
Watson was startled when he thought of this, thinking about this guy... He didn't hear clearly when the girl introduced herself just now, and he was too embarrassed to ask again now.
Thinking of this, Watson couldn't help but stood up and said, "I'll go take a look in the kitchen. You can help yourself."
After saying that, he didn't care whether the girl knew how to make tea or not, but ran out of the living room and headed into the kitchen.
…
By the way, Hua Yu didn't stay in the courtyard for long today.
After reading Buddhist scriptures in the room for a while in the morning, I was led all the way to the living room of the temple by the Zhike monk in the temple. It turned out that the senior brother and sister from Fenghuang Mountain came to the temple.
So, I accompanied my senior brothers and sisters to burn incense and worship Buddha in the temple. At noon, I ate vegetarian food in the dining hall, and chatted with several senior sisters until Shen Shi.
Thinking that my brother was about to go down the mountain, he hurried all the way to the small courtyard in the back mountain.
In the last few days, she decided to stay with her brother because her senior sister told her that when the disciples from the academy arrived, the group would have to leave for Kunlun.
She had to have a drink tonight. Her senior sister brought her delicious wine and food from the town down the mountain. She wanted her brother to have a good meal.
She pushed open the door of the small courtyard and walked all the way to the living room, but she smelled a dangerous smell.
I was shocked, and immediately shouted: "Where did you come from, you evildoer, dare to get into my territory!"
Unexpectedly, an exclamation came from the living room: "Don't show off your evildoers, this is my territory!"
When Hua Yu rushed into the living room and was about to take out the spirit sword, she screamed again: "Senior sister, why did you come to my house?"
Tantai Xiaoyu was startled, looked at Hua Yu and exclaimed: "Junior sister, why are you here? Isn't this the little monk's home?"
"Oh, you little monk, senior sister, you are talking nonsense again."
Hua Yu put away the spirit sword in her hand, came to the table and sat down, poured herself a cup of hot tea, and chuckled: "That's my brother Watson, where did you meet him?"
Tantai Xiaoyu was amused and chuckled: "I was just bored, so I wanted to climb Wentian Peak, but halfway through, the mountain wouldn't let me go up..."
Hua Yu was stunned when she heard this. She never expected that her senior sister would run to Wentian Peak early in the morning and actually follow her brother up half the steps.
Thinking about it, he took Tantai Xiaoyu's hand and said, "That's not right. I've been crawling for almost a whole summer, but there has never been anything coercive."
From Hua Yu's point of view, she was already exhausted wearing sixty kilograms of iron armor. If there was another pressure, would she be able to survive?
"Hehe, you don't believe it. Ask your brother later. How did your brother become a young monk in Yunqi Temple?"
Tantai Xiaoyu couldn't connect the dull Watson with the quirky Hua Yu.
One is already at the third level of Jindan cultivation, and the other is a guy who seems to have no energy at all. This difference is the difference between heaven and man. How can the relationship between the two be brother and sister?
"Is it possible that your brother picked it up?"
Tantai Xiaoyu looked at Hua Yu and said seriously: "No wonder your parents left him to become a monk in Yunqi Temple."
Before Hua Yu could reply, Watson rushed in, looked at her and asked, "My sister is out of food, what will she do?"
When he looked up, he saw the two women looking at him blankly, and couldn't help but frown: "Who is this, sister? Do you know her? Why did you go to ask Tianfeng to play?"
Hua Yu waved to her brother and said with a smile: "Brother, come and sit down. My senior sister brought wine and food from down the mountain... This is my senior sister Tantai Xiaoyu, who is also a monk in the Golden Core Realm!"
After speaking, he looked at Tantai Xiaoyu and said seriously: "Senior sister, this is my brother Watson. Don't say nonsense about what you just said in the future, otherwise don't blame me for being angry and ignoring you."
Tantai Xiaoyu looked at the two of them again and again, and after a while, she asked reluctantly: "Why are you in Phoenix Mountain, and your brother is here?"
Hua Yu looked at Watson's troubled look and smiled faintly: "My brother has been sick since he was a child, so it makes sense for his parents to send him to the temple."
"Senior sister, remember, my brother is only practicing in the temple. Although he is a disciple and has learned skills, he has not become a monk. You are not allowed to scream again in the future. I will really be angry."
Hua Yu frowned slightly when she said this, letting Tantai Xiaoyu feel her serious attitude.
When Watson heard that there was food, he was no longer anxious. Instead, he looked at the two of them and said with a smile, "Then I'll go wash up first. This whole body is stained with sweat."
After Hua Yu stood up and left the living room, Tantai Xiaoyu whispered in Hua Yu's ear and asked: "So, what you said before are true?"
Hua Yu replied quietly: "Yes, Nalan Qiuxue from the academy will be here tomorrow."
