Ming Shi was slightly stunned, the name was familiar to the soul. Although he has survived for thousands of years, his own memory is very clear. He never remembers that he knew a child named "Mo Fan".
"Would you like to come with me?"
"Yes." After a pause, Mo Fan asked, "Then do I want to study with you for a long time?"
"Yes, it's been a long, long time." Ming Shi thought a little teasingly, "Maybe, when you can come back, your parents will be old."
"How long? If it takes a long time, I will tell my parents not to worry about me. I am going to be a magician, and I can accept separation." Mo Fan hesitated for a moment, with a look of determination on his face.
Ming Shi patted his head, "Ten years."
Mo Fan breathed a sigh of relief, "Then when I go home, I will grow up. My parents must be very happy to see that I have achieved something in my studies."
"So confident? What if you don't study well?"
"As long as you work hard, there is nothing you can't do. I have talent and perseverance. As long as I persist, I will definitely succeed. Those who complain about mediocre talent and mediocre strength are just because they don't pay enough."
Children are young, but their thinking is mature, even some teenagers, they don't understand as thoroughly as children. It can only be said that it is worthy of being a person with "mind"
Through those firm eyes, Ming Shi saw himself in the other's eyes. That face was his own, maybe he hadn't seen it for a long time.
"Can you see what I look like?"
"Yes," Mo Fan wondered, "Why can't I see it?"
When Ming Shi travels, he will cast a blindfold on his body, and people who have seen him will only remember seeing such a person, but can't remember his appearance clearly.
Therefore, the reason why Huanjie hasn't seen him for a long time depends more on his means. After all, he is not someone who can really stay on Xuefeng for hundreds of years, almost, Ming Shi will come out for a walk in order to break through.
It is not low-level illusion that can confuse everyone. Unexpectedly, Mo Fan was not blocked.
Mo Fan pointed to some children of the same generation whose bodies were already affected, "Are they in an illusion?"
"right."
"Then why don't I feel it?" Mo Fan was puzzled at this moment.
"Because you have a 'mind'."
"Mind?"
"Well," Ming Shi glanced at the hourglass, and there was only a thin layer left on the upper layer, "I'll take you back first, and then I'll teach you in detail."
"Okay." Mo Fan immediately agreed.
Mo Fan was so decisive, Ming Shi couldn't help asking, "Don't you want to say goodbye to your parents?"
Mo Fan shook his head, "The next time they see me, they will be a different me."
Ming Shi's ice-cold face softened a little, "Close your eyes."
Mo Fan followed his words and closed those clear and ignorant eyes showing toughness. The long Jie Yu swept across, leaving only a thick shadow.
Ming Shi had never hugged a child before, and his movements were stiff but carefully holding the child who was only as tall as the bend of his legs in his arms. There was no wave on his face, but a sense of protection could be seen in his movements.
The members of the Mo clan who were waiting outside the door were respectful and quiet, anxious in their hearts, but there was nothing strange about them.
A gust of wind blows, and the gate of the imperial hall slowly opens. A sense of coolness circulated in the mind, and the children who were still in the illusion woke up one after another, with amazed eyes.
They belong to the illusion family, and they have been fascinated by it since childhood. Seeing the clansmen outside the door, one knew that everything before was an illusion.
The children were still a little confused about the situation, and rushed out of the hall one after another, burrowing into the arms of their parents. However, their parents did not pay attention to their children, and their eyes were fixed on the hall of the Zong hall.
In the middle, the hourglass has fallen completely, and suddenly, two lines of words emerge from the center of nothingness.
—The person has been taken away, and will return to the clan after ten years.
It's Mo Fan.
This person was chosen within the expectations of the Mo people. Although they regretted that their children could not follow the practice, they did not feel jealous.
Even some parents breathed a sigh of relief. In ten years, it is obviously not easy to not see the most important growth stage of one's own child.
Knowing that this is the best choice for Mo Fan, and it is a necessary step in the process of becoming a strong man, Mo Fan's parents are still a little sad.
Other children leave home after finishing their studies, leave their parents, and go out to practice, but their children are so young, and they will not see their parents in the next ten years, so I wonder if they will be hesitant.
Mo Fan was educated from an early age to become a powerful illusionist, and the difficulties and obstacles he might encounter had been paved the way early when he was governor. But when this day really came, Mo's father and Mo's mother still couldn't help worrying.
Thinking that their children will spend ten years on the deserted snow peak, Mo's father and Mo's mother feel sad for a while. In the dead of night, will Xiaofan cry alone
"Don't worry too much, since Master Ming Shi is willing to accept Xiaofan as his disciple, he will definitely take good care of him." Mo clan patriarch comforted.
Mo's father and Mo's mother smiled, suppressing the worries in their hearts, "I thought about it before, but I was a little bit reluctant."
The patriarch of the Mo clan sighed and patted Father Mo on the shoulder understandingly. After a while, the two should figure it out. It happened suddenly, I was caught off guard, my mind was disturbed, and it was normal.
The elder who inspected the clan hall entered the hall, saw a small figure in the corner motionless, frowned and said, "You child, why are you still here, come out quickly, the clan hall is about to be closed."
Coming out of the illusion, the so-called apprenticeship ceremony was over, but he didn't even see the figure of the other party. Moze is unwilling, why is it still Moze? Did the old man's fantasy have any effect on Mo Fan
If it has already affected the other party, why can Mo Fan not be affected
Confused thoughts and questions caused him to stay where he was instead of following a group of children out of the clan hall. It wasn't until the elder came in to investigate and saw Moze's dazed appearance, frowning and scolding, that he woke up.
Moze lowered his eyes, and walked out slowly in frustration. The elder glanced at him indifferently, then left the clan hall, nodded to the steward, and the door of the clan hall was slowly closed again.
Next time, I don't know when it will open.
The top of the snow peak.
"Open your eyes."
Mo Fan opened his eyes, but within a moment, he was already in another place.
In the next moment, he leaned closer to Ming Shihuai. Ming Shi was startled, and was about to let him go, but Mo Fan whispered, "Cold".
The top of the snow peak is covered with snow all the year round, and the temperature is frighteningly low. Ming Shi was not afraid of cold and heat, so he didn't feel anything wrong, Mo Fan was not. He was just an ordinary person, unexpectedly coming to such a place, his hands and feet were numb from the cold instantly.
"I was negligent."
As soon as you look up, the flying snow in the sky turns into scattered petals, the ground is covered with grass and small flowers, gorgeous peach blossoms emerge from the soil, and a group of small birds fly from a distance, chirping spring on the branches .
The severe cold faded, and the warm breath came back. Mo Fan poked his head out of his arms, and looked at the beautiful scenery like an illusion without blinking.
"Master, is this also an illusion?" Since Ming Shi agreed to accept him as an apprentice, it is not too much to call him a master.
Ming Shi nodded.
"It's amazing, I really don't feel cold anymore." Mo Fan excitedly said, looking at this place, touching that place, he looks like a child. Suddenly, he turned his head to look at Ming Shi, "Master, when will I be as powerful as you?"
"Within ten years."
It's just a slightly more advanced way of blinding one's eyes, so it's worth being so surprised? Thinking of this in his heart, Ming Shi's eyes are full of connivance.
Although Mo Fan doesn't feel the cold, it's just a blindfold after all. Mo Fan is a child, so it's not easy to be exposed to the wind and snow.
Ming Shi dug out the living utensils that had not been used for a long time, but there were no clothes suitable for children, only some precious furs.
For him, the cave where Ming Shi lives is just a place for self-cultivation. He never thought that someone would come to live with him here, so there is only one stone bed in the cave for resting.
Spreading the fur layer by layer, Ming Shi secretly annoyed himself for his carelessness. He carried Mo Fan to the bed, wrapped his body in a thick cloak, and told him, "I'll go out for a while, you lie on the bed for a while, don't come down, it's cold outside, I'll be right back."
Mo Fan's small face became smaller and smaller under the white fluff, the tip of his nose was red, and there was a trace of coldness.
Ming Shi thought, raising a child seemed to be a good idea.
He took out a soft jade tablet from the storage space, tied it with a red string, Ming Shi hung it around Mo Fan's neck, and put it inside, "This is warm jade, which can drive away the cold, and it needs to be worn close to the body."
Mo Fan smiled gratefully, "Thank you Master."
Ming Shi smoothed off the frizzy hair on Mo Fan's head, got up and walked out of the cave, and after a while, it disappeared.
"Fanfan." As soon as Ming Shi left, the system popped up.
"It's really cold here." Mo Fan's small body huddled under the quilt, making him even more pitiful.
"What about Fanfan?"
"My old Gong will never freeze me to death." Mo Fan said very heartlessly.
system:…
"Fanfan, why does the protagonist Gong have to live here? He can take you to a warm place to learn illusion."
"Didn't you read the plot carefully?" Mo Fan was speechless, "The colder it is, the better it is for illusion cultivation."
system:…
It's just playing games. Anyway, in the end, Fanfan will take care of it, and it is used to being a cute little girl.
"Forget it, anyway, once he comes back, you can't show up, it doesn't matter if you watch the plot or not."
"Fanfan, I will study the plot carefully next time..." the system stopped before finishing speaking. Mo Fan looked up and saw that the person really came back.
"Master is back so soon?"
The child's eyes became bright because of surprise, Ming Shi moved his fingers, but he still couldn't help touching the other person's head. He said contentedly, "Well. Forget that you are a mortal, you can't escape the five grains, and you can't resist the cold and heat. This place is beneficial to your cultivation base. Just bear with it. When you succeed in cultivation, you will be fearless."
Mo Fan's focus is not on these, "A mortal? Isn't Master a mortal?"
Ming Shi paused and said, "Being a teacher is a bit different, and you will know it in the future."
So, Mo Fan didn't ask any more questions.
