Shan Qin still has no way of knowing whether the younger brother hates the elder brother, but Wen Jiu was finally judged healthy by the master, and he can bid farewell to the days of lying in bed and eating and waiting to die every day.
This news is naturally good news for Wen Jiu. After all, he has never left the door to wander around here even once since he traveled here.
The master told him the good news after he felt his pulse for the last time before going to bed on the night of the fourth day of crossing, and after hearing the news, Wen Jiu felt like a college entrance examination candidate who was supposed to take the exam the next day. He was excited and nervous at the same time, he didn't know how this feeling came about, but he just couldn't calm down.
After tossing and turning like this all night, Wen Jiu finally fell asleep in a daze when it was almost dawn.
As a result, it seemed that within a minute after closing his eyes, Wen Jiu heard a few "dong dong" knocks on the door of his room.
Unable to react for a while, he subconsciously grabbed the pillow and covered his head to prevent the noise from waking him up. Unexpectedly, after knocking on the door for a while, as if he understood that knocking on the door could not stop Wen Jiu's enthusiasm for sleeping, the man gave up knocking on the door, and pushed open the wooden door of Wen Jiu's room with a "squeak" .
Now Wen Jiu couldn't lie down anymore, he put down the pillow covering his head, rubbed his eyes vigorously, and then looked towards the door. His elder brother leaned against the door frame in a pure white gown, staring at him with a straight face and expressionless expression. Seeing that he woke up, he said: "Get up when you wake up, you can't sleep like this in the future, or you won't be able to hide in time when you encounter danger."
Wen Jiu touched his nose and nodded a little guilty. He simply thinks that the people living in this neighborhood are all from the sect, and it is impossible to cause harm to him under the current situation where everyone has no grievances, so there is no need to be wary all night long.
But if the senior brother said he couldn’t sleep to death, then he couldn’t, so what the senior brother said was what he said. Wen Jiu had completely figured it out after spending the past two days lying in bed with nothing to do but to make up his mind.
In this world where the senior brother is the god, in order to survive, besides trying to be a passer-by to reduce the sense of existence, the more important thing is to keep in mind a sentence - those who follow the senior brother will prosper, and those who go against the senior brother will perish.
He doesn't ask for prosperity, he just asks not to die too early. So you still have to listen to your brother.
The senior brother told him to get up when he woke up, so Wen Jiu stretched and started to get up to fold the quilt. While casually asking: "Brother, what time do we usually get up in the morning?"
"What time?" Shan Qin frowned, he had some communication barriers, and his junior brother suddenly said a word he had never heard before, which instantly made him feel afraid that he would never dare to speak to his junior brother again.
It's just that when the face is paralyzed to a certain level, it will become a habit. So even though Shan Qin is now worried that he said the wrong thing and is about to sit on the ground in fright, his face still looks calm as usual.
Wen Jiu originally just asked a casual question, but when he heard the senior brother's rhetorical question, he suddenly realized that his question seemed a little trendy.
It seems that there is no such high-end term as "what time" in this era, right
He coughed lightly, and his brain cells began to run at high speed at this moment, recalling all kinds of costume movies he had watched before time travelling, and searched out all kinds of common words in those movies. Then he said bluntly again: "Actually, I just want to ask, what time do we usually get up?"
"You can do it when it's time." The elder brother responded, and then asked Wen Jiu again to the question that Wen Jiu didn't give him an answer just now. He said, "What time does it mean?"
Wen Jiu: "..."
Brother, you are not ugly, why are you so studious? You have to ask clearly about everything like this, which makes me very entangled. Don't you know that there are some things that your cute little brother is not willing to bb with you too much
But if you can't say that to your senior brother, it's simply disrespectful.
Wen Jiu thought for a second and said: "This is our dialect, and it has the same meaning as what time. I'm afraid you won't understand, so didn't you ask again."
What he said was very sincere, and Shan Qin didn't see anything wrong when he looked at him, so he didn't ask any more questions.
After Wen Jiu finished making the bed, he followed his senior brother to wash up and cleaned himself up, and then the two went to the door of the room where the master was. With Wen Jiu behind, Shan Qin took two steps forward, raised his hand and knocked on the wooden door a few times, and said, "Master, Junior Brother has woken up."
"Okay." There was a reply from inside the door, and less than half a minute later, the door was opened from the inside, and Li Luo stood in the room, smiling at the two apprentices: "Big apprentice, thank you for your hard work. Go down and practice on your own. Second apprentice, wait a minute, is there anything uncomfortable? Let your senior brother know the way today, and tomorrow you can't bother your senior brother to continue to lead you the way."
"Yes, master." The two replied at the same time, Shan Qin turned around and went back to his room after taking Li Luo's luggage, Wen Jiu stood in front of Li Luo and continued to answer her question: "I don't feel any discomfort Today, I understand all places clearly, but in the future, if there is something I don’t understand, can I ask Master?”
"Master, master, it's mainly about master." Li Luo said, "If you don't know anything, you can ask me. If master is not here, you can ask your brother. You see, he always looks so cold In fact, it's quite easy to talk about."
Wen Jiu nodded and acted like an obedient and obedient apprentice, but to be honest, the words to the master went in one ear and out the other. If something really happened, the master didn't ask him to find someone, he would rather go to his junior sister than his senior brother.
Li Luo has been staring at the facial expression of his second apprentice. Although it seems that there is nothing wrong with it on the surface, his big eyes have been looking from left to right, but he dare not stare into her eyes and speak. With such an obvious state of lying, Li Luo didn't know whether he should praise him or scold him.
She opened her mouth to help the big apprentice say something, but the words turned into a sigh when she reached her mouth. Let the apprentices handle the relationship between the apprentices themselves, and it doesn't seem like they will listen to the second apprentice if they talk too much. She paused and asked, "Do you still remember how to practice?"
Wen Jiu looked at Li Luo blankly with a congenitally handicapped expression, shook his head and said, "I don't remember at all."
Li Luo: "..."
It was the expected answer, but it made Li Luo feel as if a mouthful of blood had sprung from his heart. The second apprentice who taught for a year can't remember anything, what should I do
There are only two answers, either to give up this apprentice, or to re-educate.
The fact that Li Luo protects his apprentice is well known in the entire cultivation world, so in Li Luo's view, there is actually only one option—since he has forgotten how to cultivate, he should start over again. Wouldn't it be enough to teach it once
This is not a problem, as long as the apprentice is still safe, everything is fine.
Li Luo put his hand on the forehead of his second apprentice. Wen Jiu didn't know what the master was trying to do with this action, but he believed that no matter what happened, the master would never harm him. The two of them remained in this position, and after waiting for a while, Li Luo put down his hands and said, "If the apprentice is not a close and trustworthy person, you must not allow the actions I just did."
Wen Jiu nodded, and then told the master with his eyes that he was very obedient but couldn't understand why the master said that.
Li Luo glanced at his apprentice's usual silly look, and basically understood that Wen Jiu didn't understand what he was doing just now. She was not impatient, she still kept that smiling expression and explained slowly to Wen Jiu: "Master was testing your cultivation just now, and I can feel the aura in your body. If you are more capable, even I can feel the strength of your golden core. Therefore, in the situation just now, I think it will not be easy to kill you."
"I see." Wen Jiu replied. A coward like him who can't even be called a passer-by, no one would want to kill him, right
Just as he was thinking, Li Luo's voice sounded again. She said: "Apprentice, you must know that you must be defensive. No matter how harmless you are, those demon cultivators who can use other people's cultivation to improve their own cultivation will attack you. No matter how low your cultivation is Improve a little, so as long as you are a cultivator, no matter how weak your cultivation is, you may be targeted."
Wen Jiu: "..."
Why did he hear Master say this, and he suddenly felt that this world was not as peaceful and easy to live in as he imagined.
"Master has just checked your spiritual root and spiritual energy, and there is no problem. Your current stage is still the same as before." Li Luo said: "Master is now teaching you how to cultivate again, because you already have the foundation So it should be much easier."
That's what it says.
It wasn't until almost noon that Li Luo finally realized that no matter what his background was, his comprehension and acceptance were really flawed.
She felt distressed, but Wen Jiu was not at ease. The master said before, let him sit cross-legged on the ground and take a deep breath, and then feel the breath between the breaths, so that he is in an extremely relaxed state, as if nothing in the world can disturb his mind, the cultivation is considered successful. And Li Luo only asked him to completely relax himself in the state of meditation.
As for what to do next, Li Luo didn't say, and Wen Jiu didn't ask either. The two are surprisingly consistent on this matter—
It is already very good for Wen Jiu to complete the first step today, and he does not expect the second step at all.
