This day, the two of them had a disagreement for the first time over the matter of naming the little beast.
"Fellow Daoist Ji, why do you call me Toothless? It's so unpleasant!"
Ji Qingling opened the little beast's mouth and showed it to Zhou Yan, "Hey, look, do you have teeth?"
"Then Toothless can't be called Toothless!"
Zhou Yan probably felt that this sentence was very awkward, so she laughed out loud.
She thought of a nice name, "Now that it is black and shiny, how about we call it Moyu?"
Ji Qingling shook his head and had already made up his mind to call him Toothless, "If you take him back and raise him, he'll be called Mo Yu."
"ah?"
Zhou Yan was defeated. She could even feed the black turtle to death. She really didn't have the courage to take it back and raise it.
Curiosity aroused by the other party's frustration, Ji Qingling teased Zhou Yan, "You really can't even feed a black turtle?"
Even the golden elixir monks cannot penetrate the shell of a high-level black turtle. It is really thick-skinned and thick-flesh. Generally, sects will raise some to refine weapons and make defensive robes.
Throw the turtle aside and give it some regular food. It may not need to move its nest for decades, and it will survive!
"Alas~" Zhou Yan let out a long sigh.
"When I was young, I raised various spiritual pets, including many precious birds and beasts. Unfortunately, they always died inexplicably in the end. They were fine one day, but no longer breathing the next morning.
Once, a colorful flowing light beast suddenly exploded in front of me. If Master Yuanzhi hadn't blocked it for me, I would have been injured that time.
Since that time, I no longer dared to raise any spiritual beasts. For a long time, whenever I practiced, I would think of that little beast that exploded.
Suddenly it exploded from the abdomen, and the body was exploded with flesh and blood flying everywhere. My face was also splashed with blood foam, but the little beast's head screamed twice before it completely died. "
Ji Qingling nodded. He was only a few years old at that time, and any child would be left with a shadow in his heart.
"It wasn't until I came to the outer sect and reached the middle stage of Qi refining that Mr. Shi Nandao gave me a black turtle. It was a mutated golden black turtle. It was very beautiful.
Lord Dao was worried that I would not be able to contract a spiritual pet if I could not raise animals, so he gave me a black turtle to practice with.
Who knew that in just ten days, the black turtle would become completely motionless.
Since then, I have been practicing more and more diligently. Master Yuanzhi also said that I will not be able to contract spiritual pets in the future, and I will lose a helping hand in battles with others. "
It made Ji Qingling want to touch her. This child was so unlucky.
After establishing the foundation, most monks will start selecting their own contracted beasts.
Of course, it is impossible for those poor and casual cultivators, because raising spiritual pets costs spiritual stones.
After the contract between one person and one beast is reached, the minds are connected, and the battle can be coordinated without the command of a monk.
Most monks will choose fighting spirit beasts as contract beasts.
Unless the owner is willing to give up and cancel the contract, the human will die and the beast will die, so the spiritual pet is absolutely loyal to the owner.
"This contracted spiritual pet and raising a beast are two different things. You see, this Hidden Breathing Beast was going to die a few days ago. Isn't it getting better and better now?"
"Alas~" Zhou Yan sighed for the second time in a while.
"Actually, I know that many people say that I am destined to be the lone star of the Heavenly Evil Star. Sometimes I think about it that my parents did die because of me."
"Zhou Yan!" Ji Qingling called her seriously.
"ah?"
"You don't believe in those bullshit numerology theories, do you?"
"..."
Ji Qingling shook his head, "If this is really the case, it's not worth the death of your parents."
"I~"
"Your father and your mother chose to sacrifice themselves because they love you. You are their bloodline. They don't want you to leave before you have a chance to see the world. It's not for some ridiculous reason like death. ."
"Love me?" Zhou Yan's eyes were a little confused.
Ji Qingling rubbed the goosebumps on her arms. She felt so disgusting even when she said these words!
"Yes, parents love their children more than anything else, including their own lives."
She tapped Zhou Yan's arm again, "Also, we are all cultivators of immortality. Cultivating immortality is to change your destiny against the will of heaven. If you believe in numerology, then what kind of immortality will you practice? Your parents will definitely want you to Enjoying the scenery of this world is not for you to feel sorry for yourself here."
Zhou Yan murmured a little, not knowing what to say. Over the years, every time she thought of her parents, she always blamed herself and felt sad.
The same goes for Master Yuanzhi. He blamed himself for not being able to help his senior sister in the sect at that time, and regretted it every time he mentioned it.
Now that she thinks about her parents' efforts to protect her life, they must hope that she can live a free and easy life.
Seeing Zhou Yan sitting there blankly with her head lowered after being spoken to for a few words, she looked very pitiful.
Ji Qingling felt that the atmosphere was a bit heavy, so she clapped her hands and stood up.
Inviting Zhou Yan to go to Fangshi together, "If you don't want to practice today, why don't we go to Kengshi for a walk?"
Zhou Yan, who had been sitting at the table, suddenly stood up and said, "Fellow Daoist Ji, I'm going back first."
Then he turned around and left!
this!
Originally, he wanted to find something for Zhou Yan to do, but now that she ran away, Ji Qingling naturally gave up the idea of going out.
Alas, I don’t know where Ji Qingyuan and Ji Hui went to do their tasks. It’s been several days.
In the past three years, Qingyuan has been running back and forth between practicing and going to the weapon refining hall to refine the original embryo.
With the help of Ji Qingling's soul-boosting talisman, he can still achieve both ends.
In his own words, Uncle Han asked him to break through to the late stage of Qi refining and then he could try to fight some gadgets by himself.
Early the next morning, Ji Qingling had just woken up and was preparing to practice.
After I have Xiao Nanya, I may forget the time and stay up all night except when making charms.
Usually she only needs to practice for half the night at most, or she may not practice at all.
Have a nice sleep and get up early the next morning to circulate the spiritual energy until the meridians can no longer absorb it.
Toothless's nest was right next to her pillow. At this time, Toothless was trying hard to crawl from his nest to Ji Qingling's side.
Ji Qingling sat cross-legged on the bed and teased it, using her fingers to push back the half of its body that had finally crawled out.
It was probably tired and lying there panting.
Just as Toothless pulled out the small basket again, Zhou Yan's shout came from outside the door.
"Fellow Daoist Ji, I'm here."
Ji Qingling nodded helplessly on Toothless' head, "Toothless, your friend is really enthusiastic."
After tidying up, she opened the door and saw Zhou Yan sitting in the yard talking to Sun Xiang.
"We have many brothers and sisters in our family. My father and his concubines and concubines have thirteen children."
Zhou Yan was very curious and envious that Fansu's family had so many children.
"very nice!"
Seeing Ji Qingling coming out, the three of them greeted each other.
Sun Xiang took the initiative to invite them, "Senior Sister Zhou, Senior Sister Ji, Master Nascent Soul is giving a lecture in the lecture hall today, shall we go and listen together?"
"good."
Ji Qingling originally planned to go, but instead of going alone, he became a group of three.
"Fellow Daoist Zhou, have you made a breakthrough?"
Only then did she see that Zhou Yan had reached the eighth level of Qi refining, so why did she suddenly run away in a hurry yesterday?
"Yes, I had a lot of feelings at Ji Daoyou's place yesterday, and I had a breakthrough."
Well, it's quite rare. Only when you are stuck in a certain realm can you have an epiphany, but this is almost not the case during the Qi refining period.
For example, she herself would naturally break through after completing one level of cultivation.
