"Nezha, spread the mat for me..."
"Nezha, make me a cup of tea, Mao Jian'er from the fourth room..."
"Nezha, I'm hungry. Lao Liu has some snacks. Hurry and bring them here..."
“Nezha…”
A few minutes later, Nezha placed a box of snacks on the small wooden table in front of Li Changan and wiped the sweat from his head.
"Big Brother, I finally understand why the other brothers and sisters are unwilling to stay in our Xiaoqiong Peak..."
Li Changan turned around in confusion, "Why?"
The little girl turned her head and looked outside the mountain. She thought to herself that the eldest brother was too lazy. Apart from not needing anyone to help him with pooping and peeing, he even needed someone to help him turn over and move when he farted. If he stayed here, he would either be exhausted to death or get angry to death.
But after thinking about it, she decided it would be better not to tell him. After all, he was the eldest senior brother and she was the youngest sister who had just joined the sect.
"Hey, do you think I'm too lazy?"
The little girl paused and nodded.
Li Changan was immediately displeased. "Junior Sister, I have something to say to you. The ancients said that those who wish to achieve great things must first endure hardships in mind and body. Although serving tea and water requires little technical skill, it is the best way to hone a person's character. This is also the painstaking effort of my senior brother."
The little girl grinned slightly.
"Big Brother, I want to practice."
"Practice?"
"Yes." Nezha nodded solemnly.
Li Changan looked at Nezha and asked meaningfully, "What do you think cultivation is?"
Nezha frowned, "Practicing Qi, building the foundation, returning to the origin, understanding the heart, three hammers and nine refinements, step by step to heaven, this is cultivation."
Li Changan waved his hand, "It's too small."
"What's smaller?" Nezha frowned.
“The pattern is small.”
Li Changan shook his head and said, "Practice is not just about practicing, it's also about cultivating the mind."
"Cultivation is certainly important, but if you don't have a true self, what good is it no matter how high your cultivation is? Look at me, I never pursued a higher level of cultivation. Instead, I was confined to Xiaoqiong Peak for a hundred years, cultivating my mind and seeking the Tao. Even though I usually sleep and drink tea, I am actually practicing as well."
"So, you need to expand your vision, understand?"
Nezha looked a little strange, and opened his mouth as if mustering up the courage, "Big Brother, has anyone ever told you that you...are very good at pretending?"
Li Changan's hands trembled and he almost threw the teacup away.
"And Senior Brother, you haven't been out of Xiaoqiong Peak for a hundred years. Isn't it because you've been practicing for a hundred years and are still at the Qi training stage, and you're afraid of being laughed at by others?"
Li Changan grinned, he suddenly realized that this little girl was not cute at all, and was even a little annoying.
Li Changan turned over and slept on the other side.
He was ready to ignore this annoying girl.
At this moment, the void on the top of Xiaoqiong Peak fluctuated, like the surface of water, revealing the scene at the foot of the mountain.
At the foot of the mountain, Xiao Gan was in the lead, followed closely by Qin Chaofeng, Liu Yang and others, standing at the end of the long bluestone steps, looking towards the peak of Xiaoqiong Peak.
"What are these little bastards doing here instead of practicing properly?"
Li Changan muttered somewhat depressedly.
At the foot of the mountain, Xiao Gan had a stern expression on his face, with a hint of arrogance in his eyes, and shouted towards the mountain.
"Uncle Master Li, Xiao Gan, a third-generation disciple of Taixuan Shou Peak, Qin Chaofeng, a third-generation disciple of Wuxiang Peak, and Liu Yang, a third-generation disciple of Rushen Peak, greet you."
At the previous recruitment ceremony, more than a dozen people, led by Xiao Gan and Qin Chaofeng, were extremely talented and were accepted as disciples by the second-generation disciples of the Eight Peaks of Taixuan. They naturally became the third-generation disciples. As for the rest, nearly a hundred people became the fourth-generation disciples.
Only Nezha is a second-generation disciple.
This made Xiao Gan very depressed. He could clearly call Li Changan senior brother, but he was forced to lower his generation.
After a long time on the mountain, a lazy voice came, "If you have something to say, you can fart!"
Xiao Gan's face froze.
Originally, he was sent by his master to come and pay a visit to the Ninth Peak, but seeing that Li Changan didn't even want to release the mountain protection formation, he had no intention of letting them go up the mountain.
"I have come to see Uncle Chang'an by the order of my master, hoping that he can undo the mountain protection formation."
"Greetings?" Li Changan's huge head shadow appeared in the void, his eyes wide open.
"Since you're here to meet me, have you brought any gifts?"
Xiao Gan's eyelids twitched, and after hesitating for a moment, he took a small fruit basket from someone behind him.
There is no need for a visit within the sect to be too grand. A simple greeting and a fruit basket are quite appropriate.
Moreover, this is not an ordinary fruit, but a spiritual fruit from Taixuan Peak.
But Li Changan was obviously dissatisfied, with a look of contempt on his face.
"Senior Brother Zhou Yuan is really getting stingy. Leave the things here, and get out of here."
The shadow of Li Changan's head disappeared in the void, and Xiaoqiong Peak returned to calm.
Xiao Gan's face flushed red and he trembled with anger.
After all, he was a third-generation disciple of Taixuan Peak and one of the most talented people in the sect, but he was repeatedly treated coldly. He lowered his posture to pay a visit, but was not even allowed to enter the gate.
"Uncle Li, I want to make a bet with you!" Xiao Gan gritted his teeth and suddenly roared.
There was silence on Xiaoqiong Peak, without any sound.
Qin Chaofeng and others who were following behind him looked at Xiao Gan in surprise. They hadn't discussed this before, so why did he suddenly want to make a bet with others? What was the bet?
"You deliberately belittled me and humiliated me before, calling me a loser. I refuse to accept that!"
"I don't believe my cultivation aptitude is weaker than the Nezha you chose. If you're brave enough, let's make a bet on the cultivation speed of Nezha and I."
"For a period of one year, if my progress in cultivation is not as good as Nezha's, from now on, if I meet someone from the Ninth Peak, I will walk a hundred meters around them."
