Qin Shou carried the wine jug to the back mountain and saw Changsheng holding Xiao Siwu under the eaves, coaxing him back and forth.
"Master, Siwu keeps crying, and I can't soothe him no matter what I do. What should I do?"
When Changsheng saw the Qin beast arrive, it was as if he had seen a savior.
There was nothing he could do; Xiao Si was crying and fussing so much, and he had never comforted a child before.
"Oh, perhaps he's hungry. Give him some milk."
The Qin beast spoke.
"Ah, this............"
Chang Sheng blushed and said, "Master, I'm a man."
? ? ? ?
Qin Shou rolled his eyes. "I fucking asked you to feed him some beast milk."
Changsheng said, "Oh, but Master, with my current cultivation level, if I go to the Great Wilderness to get him beast milk, I'm afraid I'll be torn apart by the monsters."
"It's alright, your master will offer incense for you."
Changsheng: "....................." He really is my good master.
"Alright, I'll go get some animal milk for Siwu."
Qin Shou waved his hand and disappeared from the spot.
Half an incense stick later.
Deep in the wilderness.
A mother leopard was nursing her cubs when she suddenly saw a human with a sinister expression walk in from outside the cave, emitting a sinister "hehehe" laugh.
"Aaaaaah... Don't come any closer!!!"
The mother leopard was so startled that she spoke in human language.
"Hehehe, little leopard, can I borrow some milk?"
Mother leopard:..............This human is playing such a perverted game.
"My lord, please be gentle!"
Snap!
Qin Shou swung a large slingshot over and then handed over a black jar.
"Damn it, you want me to do it myself? Squeeze it in by myself."
"Huh? Oh, oh..."
After an incense stick had burned, Qin Shou returned to the mountain.
"Come on, Little Siwu, drink your milk! It's pure, natural leopard milk from a Foundation Establishment Realm demon beast, absolutely delicious!"
Changsheng held Siwu in his arms, while Qin Shou fed him spoonful by spoonful.
"Smack smack"
The little guy ate with great relish.
"Master, Master, he's stopped crying."
Changsheng was excited.
Qin Shou rolled his eyes. "I'm not blind, I can see."
After feeding Siwu, Qin Shou placed him in a bamboo cradle and gently rocked him.
Hehehe.........
After the little one had eaten and drunk his fill, he danced around for a while before falling into a sweet sleep.
"Chang Sheng, come, have a drink with your master to celebrate your breakthrough to the sixth level of Qi Refining."
Qin Shou, carrying a wine jar, sat at a square table under the eaves, poured two bowls of wine, and offered one to Changsheng.
"Good job, master."
Changsheng was also very happy and drank it all in one gulp.
Then, the master and apprentice chatted as usual.
"Hahaha, Changsheng, at this rate, you still have a chance to break through to the ninth level of Qi Refining before you're ninety. At that time, you'll be on par with your grandmaster, who is also my master. He was the founding ancestor of our Reliance Mountain Sect, what an awesome existence!"
"Master, don't worry, I will definitely break through to the ninth level of Qi Refining before I turn eighty, even before I turn ninety."
Changsheng had a slightly low alcohol tolerance, but after three cups, he became very confident.
After downing five cups, he slumped onto the table and began talking to himself.
"But Master, can I really live forever?"
"Waaah, Master, I really want to live forever. From the first time I saw you, from the moment you slew the demon beast with your sword and saved me, from the moment you took me up the mountain and taught me cultivation, from the moment you first wove me a pair of terribly ugly straw sandals, from that snowy day when I was twelve, when I went into the mountains alone to hunt a wild animal to make you a good meal but slipped and broke my leg, and you found me, carried me back, carefully applied medicine to my wounds, and repeatedly reminded me of things, from countless other times when you yourself didn't even notice..."
"Master, I want to live forever, but even more, I want to stay by your side forever."
Changsheng suddenly looked up, tears streaming down his face.
"Master, I lost both my parents, my brother was beaten to death, and my sister and I were bullied. In the end, I was all alone."
"The gentleman of the thatched cottage once said that there are immortals deep in the Great Wilderness, so I led the old ox and wandered through the Great Wilderness again and again. I searched hundreds of mountains, and I thought I would keep searching like this until I died in this desolate wilderness, turning into a cup of yellow earth like my parents, my elder brother, and my younger sister, as if I had never existed in this world."
"But then I met you, and you made me feel warmth, love, and the feeling of being cared for."
"Master... Ugh~"
Changsheng suddenly vomited, but after vomiting for a while, he fell asleep on the table again.
Qin Shou watched his eldest disciple quietly, the disciple who had accompanied him for decades since his master, senior brothers, and senior sisters left.
"well.........."
In the end, all emotions turned into a helpless sigh.
The Five Elements Pseudo-Spiritual Root......
Every year, the Qin beast would give Changsheng a huge amount of resources and pills, but Changsheng's physique and aptitude were really terrible.
"It's alright, you can live forever. Just hang in there. Your master has a divine tree. Once it bears fruit, eat one of the fruits and you'll live for a thousand years."
"Ah! Master, what kind of divine tree is so powerful! How long will it take for it to bear fruit?"
Changsheng suddenly raised his head. His rough face was flushed and he was drunk, but a fierce light flashed in his eyes.
? ? ? ?
Qin Shou: ...Good heavens, you're probably just putting on an act with me.
"Almost there, almost there"
"How long is 'soon'?"
"Hmm...it'll be soon." It'll be around 800 years.
"oh oh"
Bang!
Changsheng slammed his head on the table again and fell asleep, snoring loudly.
"I will grant you immortality, Master will find a way."
Qin Shou patted Changsheng's head, a look of melancholy on his face, then went into the house and found a blanket to cover Changsheng.
"What exactly is time?"
Qin Shou stood under the eaves with his hands behind his back, staring blankly at the ever-changing clouds in the sky. After a while, he couldn't help but let out a long sigh.
"Master, Master, the geese are back!"
In the distance, Yi Cheng, Da Mei, and the others skipped and hopped over, their faces beaming with joy.
Qin Shou's gaze fell upon it, and he couldn't help but pause in surprise.
At this moment, Yi Cheng looked like she had fallen into a mud pit, turning into a mud figure. If it weren't for her uniquely obese body, Qin Shou would hardly have recognized her at first glance.
And there's the chubby boy and the black rabbit next to her.
The little fat girl looked adorable, with half of the mud on her body dried up, revealing only a pair of bright, big eyes that blinked timidly. She also had a small lotus-shaped bib in front of her, which she held in her hands and filled with lots of lobsters.
Needless to say, Black Rabbit was covered in mud, dragging a small burlap sack behind him, filled with today's harvest.
Only the truly beautiful love cleanliness, spotless and uniquely beautiful.
"Master, look! The goose caught so many crayfish today!"
Yi Cheng released her grip and dumped the crayfish she had been holding in her pocket onto the ground. In addition, her rolled-up trouser legs and pockets were stuffed full of crayfish, and there were even two large green crayfish tucked into her belly.
Yi Cheng plucked them off one by one, ran into the house, found a large basin, and put them in one by one.
"Master, look at these geese! Aren't they amazing?"
Yi Cheng proudly took credit.
"And me too, I arrested a lot too."
At this moment, the usually timid Little Fatty also stepped forward, proudly emptying the crayfish he had been carrying in his bellyband.
"Squeak, squeak (I have one too, I have one too)"
Black Rabbit dragged the small sack into the basin, then with a swift flick of its tail, it accurately flung a small crayfish that was caught on its tail into the basin.
"Wow—Black Rabbit, you're amazing!"
Yi Cheng clapped.
"Hmph <( ̄︶ ̄)>"
Black Rabbit proudly held up its big belly.
Qin Shou was already used to this scene.
"Master, Master, how about we have crayfish for lunch? The crayfish you made last time smelled so good! Today we want spicy and garlic crayfish!"
"Mmm, I want the five-spice flavor."
Little Fatty nodded in agreement.
"These two foodies"
Qin Shou chuckled, "Alright."
