Chapter 7 Master Arrives
The Flower Sea and Medicinal Garden is a hillside that descends gently to the west, ending abruptly at the edge of a steep cliff.
A winding bluestone road passes through the medicinal garden and connects to the cliff-side loop road going down the mountain.
Xiao Bai stood at the edge of the medicine garden cliff, looked down at the narrow mountain road shrouded in clouds and mist, and shuddered, taking a breath of cool mist.
Generally speaking, most of the high-level disciples of Xueyan Sect fly with swords, and low-level disciples can also travel by flying kites. Not many people take the mountain roads.
Therefore, these mountain roads are built very narrow, and as no one walks on them for a long time, they are quickly covered by weeds.
For a greenhorn like Xiao Bai who is only at the second level of fetal breathing, it is actually quite dangerous.
Fortunately, he has two panaceas, Huixin Powder and Xueling Pill, and can replenish the medicine automatically with the help of the modifier.
Even if he fell off the mountainside and was smashed to pieces, as long as the elders came to collect his body, he would most likely not die.
Now, the only thing that could kill me was being turned into dust in an instant by a strong person.
A nuclear explosion would work too.
Baicao Peak is a thousand feet high.
The Dan Pavilion on the mountainside is more than three hundred feet high.
What's more, the roads are slippery in snowy weather, and the task of going down the mountain is very difficult. If you are not careful, the car will overturn, which will be embarrassing even if you don't die.
Xiao Bai glanced around and saw formations of cranes flying in the deep sea of clouds and flying swords, vaguely visible and looking very fairy-like.
This is the difference between cultivators and mortals.
Xiao Bai did not feel unfair, he was just excited.
Because he will soon learn how to fly a sword! It feels like learning how to drive a car...
It also gave Xiao Bai the courage to risk going down the mountain to get the sword.
He quickly checked the soles of his cloth shoes and used a bamboo knife to cut a few more marks on them to increase the coefficient of friction.
Holding your breath, looking at your feet, holding on to the rocks with both hands, you carefully feel your way down the mountain.
Towards the middle section, the mountain gradually widens, with more thorns and solitary pines growing on the cliff edge, making the road much easier to walk on.
Xiao Bai breathed a sigh of relief.
Suddenly I felt a little chilly.
Looking down, I saw that my cotton coat was already soaked with sweat.
The snow on the dress was melted by sweat.
Continue going down and you will reach the mountainside, where there is a gentle slope and various medicinal plots growing among the dense pine forests.
The clear and fragrant aroma of medicine hits you in the face.
Finally arrived at Dan Pavilion.
In front of us, there is a circular bluestone square, where the Dan Pavilion is located.
Baicao Garden.
At the front of Baicao Garden there is a clear pond with hundreds of herbs, beside which there are three or two cypress trees and seven or eight pavilions. It is the place where disciples practice their morning lessons.
At the back edge, dozens of semi-suspended townhouses were built against the mountain. They were the residences and training grounds for more than a hundred disciples of Baicao Peak.
The three caves at the highest point among the disciples’ rooms are the residences of the three direct disciples of Baicao Peak.
It has to be said that the three direct disciples of Master Yuhu are all legendary figures in the Xueyan Sect.
The eldest disciple, Yi Jianhu, is said to have evil intentions but unfathomable strength.
He was expelled from the sect twenty years ago and is now imprisoned in the Tiandao Pavilion of the Cambrian Kingdom.
A sword fox...
Xiao Bai had always felt that the name of this legendary female disciple was too outrageous, but now he seemed to understand.
You want to draw your sword on the elder!
Although he has never seen her, Xiao Bai hopes that she is a beautiful bad woman.
The second disciple, Yin Yang Master, is a versatile person, and is particularly good at various kinds of seals. He uses seals to store newly refined elixirs to ensure that the medicinal power is not lost.
He is the current manager of Dan Pavilion and also the disciple of Elder Yuhu Yao.
If Xiao Bai wanted to fly the sword with his cultivation level of the second level of fetal breathing, he couldn't do without his flying seal.
The third disciple, Mu Yun, is the elder’s Taoist child, serving as a similar assistant.
I have met Xiao Bai a few times. She is a naive and arrogant girl.
It is said that she is the princess of the Cambrian Kingdom. She has an extraordinary talent for spiritual practice and can make rapid progress without practicing. However, she is only obsessed with farming, breeding and weaving.
She is probably the legendary rural nun.
Xiao Bai's Taoist robe still had to be woven by her own hands...
Although she is a bit of a princess, Xiao Bai feels that Senior Sister Mu Yun should be a good person and there is no need to be a close friend of her.
Come to Baicaoyuan Square.
Xiao Bai saw a majestic and ancient seven-story tower in front of him, which was the Dan Pavilion.
The Dan Pavilion is the Xueyan Sect’s medicine storehouse, pharmacopoeia library, and the teaching building for disciples studying medicine in various mountains.
Xiao Bai has also been here a few times.
At that time, he came here with the mood of worshipping a holy place and looking up to the big boss.
This is the first time I walk down from the top of the mountain like today, and I feel as if I am superior to others.
According to seniority, he is now the master of the disciples in Dan Pavilion!
The master has arrived, why don't you all greet him respectfully? Xiao Bai walked to the square in front of Dan Pavilion with his hands behind his back, not recognizing any relatives.
In the morning, a dozen or so disciples were doing morning lessons in the pavilion.
Seeing the errand disciple in cotton-padded clothes, the other disciples' hearts skipped a beat. They looked at each other and almost at the same time.
The elder had given advance notice and passed on information about Xiao Bai, and also left a portrait of an immortal in the Dan Pavilion so that the disciples would not mistake him for the wrong person.
The disciples did not recognize the wrong person.
Judging from the figure and facial features, this is the person!
Immortal spirit? Not existent.
Poor guy who has reached the second level of fetal breathing, he has almost no advantages except that he is handsome. He looks particularly disheveled in his sweaty cotton coat.
The disciples who were doing morning lessons in the pavilion had complicated expressions. They wanted to discuss something, but when the words came to their lips, they didn't know where to start.
This is outrageous!
What is Master thinking about at this moment ?
Xiao Bai waited for a long time, and seeing that there was still no one to greet him at Dan Pavilion, he went to the pavilion to ask.
"Hello, senior brothers and sisters, I'm here to look for--"
After all, he had just arrived at the mountain, so it was not appropriate for him to call himself the master. It would be better for him to talk about their seniority and quickly get closer to these disciples.
As a result, before he could finish his words, a male disciple who really didn't believe in evil asked him: "Are you really Xiao Bai?"
Xiao Bai nodded. If it weren't for the modifier, he wouldn't have believed such a thing.
"Well, I'm Xiao Bai, your... master."
With the ironclad facts before them, the disciples had grim expressions on their faces, but they tried to hide the ugliness, which ended up making it even uglier.
Someone remembered something important and shouted:
"Master, Master..."
Xiao Bai felt very useful and a little bit dizzy.
"Can you please call me again?"
The others only then reacted and immediately bowed respectfully, shouting in unison: "Master!"
Xiao Bai nodded slightly, his expression half-smiley and calm.
In addition to shock, the expressions on the male disciples' faces were mainly envy.
The female disciples generally had a hint of contempt on their faces, and the master's shouts were aggrieved and not loud enough.
Xiao Bai didn't blame them: This just shows that they are all good women! He didn't want to provoke good women, so he asked politely: "Excuse me, where is Senior Sister Mu Yun?"
Senior sister?
Realizing that the title was inappropriate, none of the disciples dared to agree for a moment.
Until a feminine male voice floated from the Dan Pavilion: "Master is so kind and amiable, but in the world of cultivation, there is a hierarchy. Even if you are Master's Taoist companion, you are of the same generation as Master. How can you lower your status just because of your lack of cultivation?"
Are you trying to show off to me?
When Xiao Bai heard the feminine voice, he roughly guessed who it was.
He also put on airs and said without even turning his head: "Since you know that there is a hierarchy, how dare you question me, your master, in public?"
The disciples were dumbfounded by this scene and were so frightened that they dared not even breathe.
At some point, a monk in white appeared beside Xiao Bai and said respectfully, "It is the disciple who is rude."
