When Zhao Yuyue woke up from his nap, dim light came in from outside. He looked around but didn't see Chu Yanyan. He was stunned for a while, then he lifted the quilt, got out of bed, put on his cloth shoes, and walked out.
At this time, there have been earth-shaking changes outside the yard. Originally, he only weeded and cultivated vegetable fields, but now the fields are surrounded by fences made of bamboo poles. The stone road in the middle is inlaid with many pebbles, and the road continues to the main road.
There were many vines growing on the fence and entwined in it. The sun in the sky gradually set, leaving only a large patch of orange glow.
Unexpectedly, his senior brother prepared it for him personally while he was sleeping.
Zhao Yuyue couldn't describe the feeling in his heart, he just felt that this senior brother was very good, so good that he felt it was just a fleeting moment.
"Junior brother." A gentle voice came.
Zhao Yuyue looked up and saw Chu Yanyan walking towards him with a lunch box. The fiery red sunset shone on his back, and his hair was shining with orange light, attracting people's attention and keeping their gaze there for a long time.
"Senior Brother." Zhao Yuyue whispered.
There were a lot of weeds in front of Chu Yanyan's yard. Except for the three or four months of seclusion for cultivation, when he came out, the front of the yard was already overgrown with weeds. He usually traveled by flying on his sword and rarely stepped on the ground.
Ling Zhenzi was not like other peak elders who accepted so many disciples, so he did not assign anyone to take care of them. There was no one else in the peak except Chu Yanyan.
In the following days, Chu Yanyan took care of Zhao Yuyue's three meals a day, got up on time to get food from the sect, three times a day, rain or shine, all she asked was two words: persistence.
At the same time, he started to let Zhao Yuyue get up early and do horse stance every day. If he couldn't practice, he had to learn basic skills to protect himself.
In the afternoon, Zhao Yuyue was asked to read books, various medicine books and some sword techniques. Reading those medicine books was just to enable him to identify more medicines and increase his survival skills, and reading those sword techniques was to protect himself.
At night, he would let Zhao Yuyue hold a wooden sword and learn the moves in the sword training manual by himself. He would occasionally give some guidance, but most of the time he would let the paper man fight with Zhao Yuyue.
Late at night, I took Zhao Yuyue to take a bath in the medicine pool to relieve the fatigue of the day.
Zhao Yuyue followed Chu Yanyan's arrangement without any hesitation, because he knew that his senior brother was doing it for his own good.
Zhao Yuyue had been bullied by those people for a long time, but his skin had thickened a lot, and his willpower had become stronger. The horse stance relied on willpower. At first, he could only do it for half an hour, but as time went by, it gradually became an hour, two hours, and finally a whole morning.
Under Chu Yanyan's care and Zhao Yuyue's daily exercise and meals, a month passed quickly. Zhao Yuyue's originally skinny body and cheeks gained a lot of flesh. He looked much more energetic than before, and there was light in his eyes.
His hair was tied into a high ponytail with a black rope, with side bangs on his forehead. His overlong hair was cut short, revealing his bright black eyes. His face shape had not yet fully grown. He was wearing a dark purple satin suit and had a straight back. Overall, he was a young man with a good foundation.
At noon that day, Zhao Yuyue was doing horse stance, a daily task that he had to complete. He could now stand from 11 a.m. to noon without a break. After noon, he excitedly returned to the courtyard where he and his senior brother lived and wanted to tell Chu Yanyan about this matter.
Carrot seeds have already sprouted from the soil in the vegetable garden in the yard, and the vegetable garden is dotted with green.
"Senior Brother!" Zhao Yuyue walked into the yard and looked towards the door of the house. He found two people, a man and a woman, wearing the sect's clothes.
He stopped and looked there.
The sect disciple who was talking to Chu Yanyan heard the voice, looked up at Zhao Yuyue, and then saluted Chu Yanyan with a fist: "I'll trouble you, Brother Zihe, to complete this matter."
"Okay, I will find them back." Chu Yanyan also saluted them with a clenched fist.
After the mission was conveyed, the two men left immediately.
As they walked past Zhao Yuyue, they nodded at him with kindness on their faces, and Zhao Yuyue also nodded slightly at them.
After they left, Zhao Yuyue walked towards Chu Yanyan. Seeing Chu Yanyan's serious face, he suppressed the joy in his heart and asked, "Brother, what did they come to see you about?"
"They came to me just now, wanting me to go find someone. A group of disciples who went down the mountain on a mission disappeared in Wanhe Town. It just so happens that monsters have been appearing frequently recently, and some people suspect they are responsible, so they specifically asked me to go and find the missing disciples."
Chu Yanyan said, he looked at Zhao Yuyue, took out a handkerchief and wiped the sweat from the boy's forehead: "Junior brother, how is your horse stance today?"
Feeling the smooth touch on his forehead, Zhao Yuyue moved his drooping fingers, but ultimately did not lift them. A smile appeared on his face as he replied, "I can now hold on for three hours."
"That's great. Let's have lunch first." Chu Yanyan took Zhao Yuyue's hand and walked into the house.
"Yeah!" Zhao Yuyue stared at Chu Yanyan's figure until the person in front turned around, then he withdrew his gaze.
