Wan Qiang's words were neither light nor heavy, as if she was saying that the weather was very good today!
But only her five apprentices knew how much care a master has for her apprentices was contained in those brief words.
"Master, you are really the best master in the world. Apart from my brother, you are the only one who treats me the best." Bo Sisi's tone was quite low.
Actually, this is normal.
For the first twenty years of her life, she was a dementia patient with brain problems. Even if she was born into a family like the Bo family, she would still be abandoned by her parents and relatives.
Only those who have experienced it will understand how desperate and suffocating that feeling is.
Huai Qing didn't say anything, but just held the token and looked at it carefully.
Mao Anying, Ma Tianci, and Chao Qinghe initially felt that the material of this small token was unusual, but they couldn't recognize it. Now that there were no outsiders around, they naturally asked one after another:
"Is this made of mahogany?"
"I think it's something more advanced than mahogany. Master, what exactly is this?"
"I've never seen this kind of wood in my life. Master, where did you get it?"
Wan Qiang: "This is a tree struck by lightning."
"Lightning-struck wood?"
Except for Bo Sisi and Huai Qing, the other three had their eyes wide open, looking like they had never seen the world before.
"Master, what is lightning-struck wood?"
"Lightning-struck wood, also known as thousand-year-old peach wood, is incredibly powerful, far surpassing ordinary thousand-year-old peach wood. Furthermore, due to the extremely harsh conditions for its formation, it has been incredibly rare since ancient times..."
After Wan Qiang finished speaking, she nodded thoughtfully at Qing He, "Master, this item must be extremely valuable, right?"
Mao Anying and Ma Tianci echoed.
Wan Qiang didn't say anything, but she was already looking at Bo Sisi. It was very obvious what she meant.
"My Bo family's ancestor spent 10 million to get this piece of lightning-struck wood." Bo Sisi cleared her throat and honestly explained the value of this lightning-struck wood!
After saying this, as if she felt that her words were not appropriate, Bo Sisi quickly added: "Ten million taels of gold."
When they heard Bo Sisi say ten million, no one showed any expression.
But when they heard Bo Sisi's "ten million taels of gold", they were so shocked that they almost fell on the lawn.
Ten million taels of gold?
Hiss...how much does that cost?
It happened very suddenly. Although none of them were short of money, they still couldn't help but treat the small lightning-struck wooden token as a treasure.
If such a valuable thing gets bumped or scratched, wouldn’t you be heartbroken?
"..." Wan Qiang twitched the corner of her mouth, "No need to be so cautious."
Several people looked at Wan Qiang in confusion, as if asking: Why?
Wan Qiang: "This kind of rare and unique thing won't spoil easily."
As soon as Wan Qiang finished speaking, several people breathed a sigh of relief.
I hope it won't break easily.
If this breaks, I'll feel incredibly guilty, okay?
"Master, are we going back now?" Huai Qing asked.
Wan Qiang nodded and looked at the three new apprentices she had accepted today. "I'll give you one day. Go home and make arrangements. Come meet me at Shengjing Hotel tomorrow night."
"Yes, Master!"
On the way back, Huaiqing drove the car while Wanqiang and Bo Sisi sat in the back seat.
Bo Sisi was really tired after two days of hard work, and fell asleep soon after getting in the car. Wan Qiang leaned back in the seat, watching the scenery rapidly receding outside the car window, but her words were directed to Huai Qing.
"You haven't fallen behind in your training, have you?"
"Master, don't worry. Once you understand it, you will be as steady as an old dog." Huai Qing rarely made a joke.
"The calm before the storm is the most dangerous. You must be careful." Wan Qiang said, then changed the subject and asked Huai Qing, "Is there anything you want to say to your teacher?"
Huai Qing's face showed a look of struggle, and he spoke in a pitifully small voice, "Yes, but..."
Wan Qiang: "You only have one chance. If you don't tell me now, don't tell me later."
Huai Qing finally spoke, his words powerful and resonant, "Master. Chao Qinghe will not let you down. I hope you can be patient."
"Huaiqing, you seem to be particularly interested in this Chao Qinghe." Wan Qiang deliberately dragged out her tone and asked, "Have you two known each other before?"
"I wouldn't say we know each other." Huai Qing said with a twinkle in his eyes, "When I was a kid, I was bullied and he passed by and helped me."
Wan Qiang pondered for a moment, then suddenly changed the subject, "Huai Qing, what do you think if I built a Taoist temple?"
Huaiqing never dreamed that Wanqiang would say this to him.
He let out a surprised "Ah" and tentatively and uncertainly asked, "Master, doesn't Nanshan Temple have some connection with you? Why did you want to build a Taoist temple?"
Nanshan Temple and Longhu Mountain both have connections with Wan Qiang.
But the "effect" they brought to Wan Qiang was almost negligible.
Only if she built her own Taoist temple and was worshipped by people, could she make the best use of the "power" that could restrain the devil from coming to the world.
"Some of my origins cannot change the fact that I have no sect or school, let alone a place to stay." Wan Qiang considered each word again and again before speaking, "Huai Qing, I now have five disciples."
Huaiqing understood.
He said, "Master, building our own Taoist temple is indeed a very good thing."
