"Senior Brother Tian, Junior Brother Shen, are you two born in the year of the dog? I just got back and you two are blocking the door." One of them couldn't help but turned around and smiled at the other two while rustling around to open the door with the key.
The person who opened the door was Bai Xiaotian. The Junior Brother Shen he mentioned was naturally Shen Luo, and the Senior Brother Tian was Tian Tiesheng, who was assigned by Master Luo two years ago to go down the mountain to pick up Shen Luo and bring him into the temple.
It was after a long time since Shen Luo went up the mountain that he felt that this person was quite honest and simple, but a little timid. Although he went up the mountain earlier than most of the disciples in the temple, he was often teased by Ding Yuan and his gang.
Bai Xiaotian and Shen Luo had both helped him out of trouble before, and since the three of them were all disciples of Master Luo, their relationship became closer and closer.
"Let's talk about it after we go in, let's talk about it after we go in..." Shen Luo said with a smile.
The two urged Bai Xiaotian to open the door, light the lights, and sit down around the square table in the hall.
Bai Xiaotian put down what he was holding, which turned out to be four grease-soaked brown paper packages and three green porcelain pots.
"Oh, this fragrance... is it from Hongyunlou?" Tian Tiesheng saw the oil paper bag on the table and swallowed his saliva.
"You know what's good." Bai Xiaotian said as he opened all four bags of grease.
There was a layer of lotus leaf wrapped in the kraft paper. When it was opened, a rich aroma of meat immediately filled the room.
Then he chuckled, picked up the two green porcelain pots on the table, and put them into a lacquered wooden square box at the corner of the bed, leaving only one pot on the table.
Bai Xiaotian is fond of drinking, and Shen Luo is used to it. Tian Tiesheng is focused on roast goose and braised pork, and didn't say anything.
"Today, Junior Brother Shen has finally mastered the Xiaohuayang Gong. This glass of wine is to celebrate for him." Bai Xiaotian took out three porcelain cups, poured a full cup of Baiyushao for each of the three people, and raised his glass.
"Junior Brother Shen has become a disciple? When did it happen? We brothers should really celebrate." When Tian Tiesheng heard this, he was shocked at first, and then he was overjoyed.
"Senior Brother Tian, I just learned the Xiao Hua Yang Gong not long ago. It took Senior Brother Bai two months to master this technique, but it took me two years. What is there to celebrate?" Shen Luo smiled bitterly.
Let alone an inner disciple like Bai Xiaotian, even an ordinary outer disciple should have mastered the tenth level of Xiao Huayang Gong in two years.
"The path of cultivation is long. It doesn't matter if you arrive early or late, as long as you can arrive successfully. Besides, Junior Brother Shen, you are a person with great perseverance, and your future achievements may not be inferior to mine." Bai Xiaotian shook his head, looking disapproving.
"Junior Brother Bai is right..." Tian Tiesheng said this, his eyes never left the roast goose and braised pork, as if he was thinking about which one to start with first.
Shen Luo heard this and just smiled.
Although the road of cultivation is long, if you take one step slowly, all the steps will be slow. How can it be so easy as it sounds? Besides, my cultivation is a way to prolong my life, so how dare I really slow down
It's just that I can't say these words to them.
"No matter what, it's always a good thing. Let's drink this glass first." Bai Xiaotian smiled and said loudly.
"That's right, congratulations to Junior Brother Shen!" Tian Tiesheng echoed.
"Thank you very much, two senior brothers." Shen Luo thanked them, and the three of them raised their glasses and drank together.
