Cultivation is tedious, and waking up early is painful. After Fang Chaozhou was caught practicing for a month, although it was no longer as painful as entering the cold pool for the first time, he still shivered every time he first entered.
As soon as he finished training, he immediately wrapped his fox fur around his body, and then looked at his junior brother in snow-colored single clothes.
"Little brother, you'd better put on this dress."
Fang Chaozhou turned out his fiery red fox fur again, and handed it to Xue Danrong, wanting him to wear it.
Xue Danrong still didn't answer. He glanced at Fang Chaozhou lightly, and walked forward first. Fang Chaozhou looked at him, shook his head helplessly, put away his fox fur, and had no choice but to follow.
Halfway through, they accidentally saw a person.
When Fang Chaozhou saw that person, his eyes lit up all of a sudden.
"Big brother!"
The elder brother was taken aback when he saw Fang Chaozhou running towards him from a distance. To be honest, except for Fang Chaozhou when he was a child, he had never seen his younger brother be so enthusiastic about him.
When Fang Chaozhou saw the elder brother, he rushed forward and hugged the elder brother like an old friend in a foreign land, "Eldest brother, you are finally here."
Woohoo, he is having a miserable time here, the elder brother is here to rescue him, right
The senior brother staggered a step back when Fang Chaozhou hugged him. He patted his second junior brother on the back dumbfounded, "Why are you so excited? It's the same as being locked up by the master when you were a child."
After he finished speaking, he felt a gaze fixed on his hand patting Fang Chaozhou's back, and when he looked up, he saw the little junior brother walking slowly.
The junior brother is naturally beautiful and beautiful, dressed in single clothes, with a fairy appearance and no appearance, and the junior brother in his arms is dressed like a bear, and he also moves like a bear when he ran over just now.
"Junior brother." Senior brother smiled at Xue Danrong and nodded, "You just finished training?"
Xue Danrong glanced at Fang Chaozhou who was still hugging his elder brother, and responded indifferently.
People in Tianshui Sect are used to his indifferent attitude, so the elder brother doesn't take it seriously.
"I came here on Master's order." As soon as the elder brother said, the bear in his arms raised his head.
Fang Chaozhou's eyes were sparkling, and he was full of anticipation, "Does Master think that I'm disturbing my junior brother's cultivation and wants me to go back?"
Rao is a senior brother, who has seen Fang Chaozhou's true thoughts, he suppressed a smile and said: "Of course..." Seeing that Fang Chaozhou's eyes were brighter, he slowly finished the rest of the sentence, "No, Master asked me to come and see you practice How's it going? Let's see if the younger brother is spoiling you?"
The lights of Fang Chaozhou's eyes went out instantly.
The senior brother thought it was funny, and patted the bear in his arms again, and said in a coaxing tone, "Okay, second junior brother, let me see your sea of consciousness."
The sea of consciousness is the most important thing for a monk, and the sea of consciousness will not be easily opened to the outside world. Generally, you will only open your own sea of consciousness to the master or Taoist companion.
Therefore, when Xue Danrong heard this sentence, he frowned, "Brother, there are many ways to check his cultivation, there is no need to open up the sea of consciousness."
Indeed, there are many ways to check how Fang Chaozhou is practicing, but checking the Sea of Consciousness is the most convenient and accurate method.
Fang Chaozhou's master has seen through the essence of Fang Chaozhou in this year, and he is afraid that Fang Chaozhou will be idle and lazy all day long here, and he is also afraid that he will cheat in front of the senior brother, so he simply asked the senior brother to check Fang Chaozhou's sea of consciousness.
One look at the Sea of Consciousness, and one can know how Fang Chaozhou has cultivated during this period of time.
Fang Chaozhou is not a real monk, and he doesn't know how dangerous it is for a monk to open the sea of consciousness. He heard that the senior brother wanted to check the sea of consciousness, and wanted to open it without saying a word, but just as he moved, he was suddenly caught I took a few steps back.
Xue Danrong looked unhappy, "Brother, if you want to check the sea of consciousness, shouldn't you let Master come here? Senior brother should also know how dangerous it is to open the sea of consciousness, and accidents will happen if you are not careful."
Eldest brother knew of course, he explained to junior junior brother's questioning: "Master has left the sect recently, today he notified me with a sound transmission talisman."
"Then wait for the master to come back." Xue Danrong's attitude was firm, and he refused to let the elder brother check Fang Chaozhou's sea of consciousness at all.
Fang Chaozhou, whose arm was being pulled, looked at Xue Danrong who was standing in front of him, and then poked his head out to look at the elder brother opposite him. Why did he feel that the current atmosphere was a bit weird.
Senior brother saw Xue Danrong like this, so he had no choice but to give up, "Then let's use another method."
The senior brother accepted Fang Chaozhou's recent cultivation results, and nodded with satisfaction, "Second Junior Brother, it seems that you are diligent with the Junior Brother beside you. By the way, Fifth Junior Brother has recently developed a new elixir. I brought it to you by the way, but his furnace failed today, so it will take a few days to deliver it to you."
Du Yunxi made him a pill
Fang Chaozhou was about to ask what kind of elixir it was, but the elder brother looked at the sky and said that it was not too early to leave.
Watching the elder brother leave, Fang Chaozhou was visibly depressed by the naked eye.
He really wanted to go with the eldest brother.
"Second Senior Brother." A voice came from behind.
Fang Chaozhou responded without energy, and his eyes were still staring at the back of the elder brother.
I really envy the senior brother who can come and go freely.
It turned out that when I was studying, at least I could rest on weekends. When I came here, I got up early and worked late, as if I was back in my third year of high school.
"Second Senior Brother, do you really want to leave with Senior Senior Brother?" The voice behind him sounded a bit chilly.
Fang Chaozhou paused for a moment, then turned around and saw Xue Danrong's pair of indifferent phoenix eyes, probably because of his instinctive desire to survive, the words he wanted to say reached the tip of his tongue, but he couldn't swallow them back. He changed a sentence, "No, it's just that I haven't seen senior brother for a long time, so I have to take a few more glances, yes, I have to take a few more glances."
After speaking, he walked towards the cave first.
It's strange how he feels that Chunzhou is getting colder and colder.
In the next few days, Fang Chaozhou found that Xue Danrong didn't pay much attention to him. Even when he got up in the morning, he was woken up by the Broken Water Sword. After becoming cold, he flew into the cave in an instant, lifted Fang Chaozhou's soft quilt, got in, and stuck to Fang Chaozhou's neck.
Fang Chaozhou shivered from the cold, and hurriedly got under the quilt, but the water-breaking sword was already prepared. Fang Chaozhou drilled, and it also drilled. Anyway, wherever Fang Chaozhou was, it stuck to Fang Chaozhou's neck until Fang Chaozhou was completely awakened. .
But this method has been used too much, and Fang Chaozhou has learned to be smart.
Before falling asleep that night, he purposely wrapped a wolf-fur collar around his neck, tightly sticking to his neck, to ensure that the broken sword would not be able to be picked apart.
Fang Chaozhou, who was fully prepared, fell asleep peacefully. Duan Shuijian, who came to wake Fang Chaozhou on time the next day, lifted Fang Chaozhou's quilt as usual, and when he saw the wolf fur collar around his neck, he paused.
It tried to pry open the wolf fur collar with the hilt of the sword, but failed.
The failed Duan Shui sword seemed a little irritable. It circled around Fang Chaozhou several times, and Xue Danrong was about to put on his clothes. After the blade made a buzzing sound, it slammed into Fang Chaozhou's quilt.
Russia.
Xue Danrong, who was tying his hair, heard Fang Chaozhou's exclamation from the other side of the screen.
He often heard this kind of voice these days, which is not unusual, so Xue Danrong didn't pay attention to it, but when he heard Fang Chaozhou's next sentence, he obviously stopped tying his hair, and then directly tied the half-tied hairband again. Pulled it off, strode around the screen.
Behind the screen, Fang Chaozhou had already woken up. He sat up hugging the quilt, his black hair scattered, and because of the cold, the wolf fur collar surrounded most of his face, leaving only a pair of black eyes exposed.
At this time, he was staring at the Duan Shui sword in his hand. After glancing at Xue Danrong who came over from the corner of his eye, he immediately felt that he was being caught by the parents while bullying other children, so he quickly let go and smiled awkwardly at Xue Danrong, " Junior brother, you got up."
Xue Danrong's long hair was not tied, and a dark blue hairband was wrapped between Yubai's fingers. He first glanced at the Duan Shui Sword that flew into the air, and then looked at Fang Chaozhou. He frowned and said, "The Duan Shui Sword pierced you just now. Is it in the clothes?"
As soon as Fang Chaozhou nodded, he saw the Duan Shui sword sucked into Xue Danrong's hand.
Xue Danrong looked down at the sword in his hand, his eyes suddenly turned cold, and the next moment, the Duan Shui sword flew to the tip of the stone on the stone wall.
On this day, Fang Chaozhou discovered that the Duan Shui sword hadn't followed the cold pool.
Without the supervision of the broken sword, Fang Chaozhou was much more free. Taking advantage of Xue Dan's calmness, he took out a small red lacquered wooden plate from the storage ring, let it float on the water, and put a plate stacked on top of it. There is a plate full of snacks, and there is a new storybook that I haven't read yet.
Simply perfect.
After reading the story book for a while, Fang Chaozhou immediately put away all his things after feeling that the sunlight had weakened a lot. Not long after he put it away, there was a sound from Xue Danrong.
The junior brother practiced halfway, and would come over to check on his condition, and today was no exception. Fang Chaozhou pretended to close his eyes to practice, and suddenly, he felt something rubbing against the corner of his mouth.
At the same time, Xue Danrong's indifferent voice sounded.
"Second Senior Brother, you forgot to wipe your mouth."
Fang Chaozhou froze, and after a while, he stretched out the tip of his tongue and licked the area that had just been rubbed.
He wanted to destroy the criminal evidence, but he didn't notice that Xue Danrong's eyes changed slightly when he saw this scene.
The white mist lingers, and the red tongue sticks out, sweeping across the fair skin.
Xue Danrong only took one look, then turned his face away. He looked down at his fingertips, and his tone suddenly became stiff, "Second Senior Brother..."
Before he could finish speaking, something was stuck to his lips.
Fang Chaozhou stood up in accordance with the soft-mouthed communication rules, and forcibly stuffed one of his snacks into Xue Danrong's mouth. Seeing that the boy's phoenix eyes were obviously wider, he smiled flatteringly, "Is it delicious?"
Xue Danrong looked at Fang Chaozhou, lowered his eyes slowly, and rolled his tongue into the sweet snack in his mouth. He hadn't eaten for a long time.
Although Xue Danrong is young, he has always had high demands on himself. Others spent several years on bigu, and the shortest one took one year, but it only took him three months to completely quit his appetite.
Even if there are snacks that monks can eat, he never eats them.
The sweet taste permeated his mouth in an instant, and his eyes under the thick long eyelashes concealed a different emotion.
"It's not tasty." He said coldly.
"Really? Let's change the taste." Fang Chaozhou dug out another snack from his storage ring, "This one, it's not so sweet, it's a little more sour."
Xue Danrong frowned slightly, and was about to speak when another one was stuffed into his mouth.
Fang Chaozhou looked at him expectantly, "Is it delicious?"
Xue Danrong's eyebrows frowned even tighter. This time he didn't say anything, he turned and went ashore directly, as if he didn't want to talk to Fang Chaozhou anymore, but he was relieved to see Fang Chaozhou who Xue Danrong had left.
Keep your snacks, it's dangerous!
Not long after Xue Danrong left, Fang Chaozhou saw the jade tablet he had placed on the rocks on the shore fly over, and a few words appeared on it, which were master's handwriting.
The master asked him to go there with Xue Danrong.
Fang Chaozhou's eyes lit up immediately, and he quickly got up from the cold pool. While he was getting dressed, Xue Danrong came back. Apparently Xue Danrong also received the news. He put on Tianshuizong's disciple uniform, his long hair was tied up with a jade crown, and his face was as beautiful as peaches and plums, but his temperament was as cold as ice and snow.
When Fang Chaozhou was getting dressed, he turned his body slightly, and only after Fang Chaozhou was dressed did he take the man's sword to the master's side.
The master sat on the top seat, saw the two senior brothers come in, put down the spirit tea in his hand, and said indifferently: "You are all here, I called you here today for one thing, not a few days ago, I went for a Go to the Dark Soul Gate."
As soon as these words came out, the expressions of Fang Chaozhou and Xue Danrong changed.
The master's eyes fell on Xue Danrong, "Dan Rong, your elder brother told me about the finals of the comprehension conference last time. There is no reason for our disciples of Tianshuizong to be bullied by outsiders like this. Li Yiye relied on how much he did. He has lived for hundreds of years and talked nonsense, so I will teach him a good lesson for you this time, Master."
Xue Danrong lowered his head, "Thank you, Master."
"Why do you need to say thank you between master and apprentice." When the master said this, he raised his hand, and the two brocade boxes that were placed on the table before floated in front of Xue Danrong and Fang Chaozhou. "This is a gift from Li Yiye to make amends Li, the red one belongs to Danrong, and the blue one belongs to Chaozhou."
Speaking of the last sentence, the master's eyes fell on Fang Chaozhou, "Chaozhou, you and Li Yiye also have a festival? Why did he say he wants to make amends to you?"
It's a big holiday, he stabbed Li Yiye's sword, and stabbed him in the heart.
In the original book, Li Yiye also gave Xue Danrong something, but he didn't give it to him. It seems that his sword changed the plot.
Fang Chaozhou looked at the indigo brocade box floating in front of him, feeling a little ominous in his heart.
"I met Li Yiye's son Li Zhu by accident before. In order to find out his son, Li Yiye found me and asked me to help." He said deliberatively.
The master nodded when he heard the words, "That guy's methods must be not bright, after all, he is a demon cultivator. If that's the case, I'll leave this thing to you to deal with. It's up to you to decide whether to throw it away or take it away."
After they left the master's place, they ran into the senior brother again, and the senior brother came over when he saw them, "Second junior brother, junior junior brother, just in time, seeing you here, I don't have to go to Zhichunzhou later. "
With that said, he took out a jade porcelain vial and handed it to Fang Chaozhou.
Fang Chaozhou looked at the jade porcelain vial in his hand, and was taken aback, "Brother, what is this?"
Eldest brother glanced at Xue Danrong next to him, and said only: "Fifth Junior Brother's newly refined elixir, let you try it, it is said to be good for your health."
Fang Chaozhou also received a few bottles of elixirs from Du Yunxi before, because the elixirs refined by Du Yunxi were all sweet, so Fang Chaozhou regarded his elixirs as jelly beans, and it was good to eat them when there was nothing to do, so he heard that the elder brother If so, I put it away without much thought.
"Trouble senior brother help me, thank fifth junior brother."
At night, know Chunzhou.
Fang Chaozhou sat on the stone bed, staring at the indigo brocade box in front of him. After a while, he straightened up again and looked over the screen. The brocade box Xue Danrong received today was vermilion.
Although he couldn't remember the color of the brocade box in the original book, he knew what Xue Danrong received in the original book.
In the brocade box, there is a elixir that increases cultivation, and—
A jade potential.
The devil Li Yiye made a jade posture according to his own standards, carved peony patterns, and even engraved Li Yiye's three characters on it.
But the problem is, now he is the one who stabbed Li Yiye with the sword, and he also received a brocade box. Is the jade power in this box, or is it in the little junior brother's box
Fang Chaozhou struggled for a long time, and suddenly remembered the elixir Du Yunxi gave him, and he wanted to eat something whenever he thought about the problem.
Eat snacks sparingly. Today, when he saw his master inspecting his cultivation, he was satisfied. He euphemistically mentioned in front of his master that he wanted to go down the mountain, and was almost scolded by his ears.
Fang Chaozhou tore off the cork, poured out one at random, and threw it into his mouth.
This elixir is indeed sweet, a bit like the chocolate beans he ate in modern times. After licking his lips, he couldn't help but ate two more.
