"Teacher Wujiu, are you hungry?"
"I brought lots and lots of delicious food from outside. Shall I go and prepare dinner for you?"
Seeing that the teachers didn't believe her, Lin Xue had no choice but to put it aside for now and try to persuade them slowly later.
Then he asked the teacher to sit down and rest, while he went into the kitchen.
Although Wu Jiu wanted to do it herself, Lin Xue refused.
I took out some ingredients from the space and started preparing dinner.
The stewed lotus root porridge was so tender it was almost falling apart; there was stir-fried pork with small mushrooms; twice-cooked pork; stir-fried romaine lettuce; and a big pot of fluffy steamed buns.
"Your cooking skills have improved so much over the years!"
As he ate the dinner prepared by his disciples, Wujiu felt very gratified.
It seems that the young disciple may not be doing well in other aspects of life, but his cooking skills are getting better and better. He must not be neglecting himself when it comes to food.
"Of course."
"I'm a witch who has seen all the beautiful landscapes of the world, I'm quite knowledgeable!"
Lin Xue put some food in her master's bowl, and then poured her a small glass of peach wine.
"Try this peach wine. It was given to me by the great shaman of the Blackhead tribe. I heard that only a few jars can be brewed each year."
Then I poured myself a glass, and sure enough, small portions usually taste pretty good.
Otherwise, the preciousness of good things cannot be shown.
"You also know the tribe's high shaman?"
"It seems you've seen quite a bit over the years. When I passed through the Qingfeng tribe years ago, I was almost chased and beaten by them."
When talking about the tribe, Wujiu recalled her youth.
That was when she had just been kicked out by her master, and she was filled with longing and fear for the outside world.
With the intention of finding a stable place to settle down, Wujiu visited many villages, only to be met with a lot of disdain and cold treatment.
We overcame many difficulties to get here.
Fortunately, the villagers here did not reject the witch. When they learned that the witch could heal people, they warmly welcomed her arrival.
So the tallow tree stopped here.
I chose this grove of trees, built these few small houses, and will live here for the rest of my life.
Later, when she went out to treat patients, she found the little girl Xue by the river.
It was winter, and everywhere was covered in snow. The little child, wrapped in a simple bundle, was abandoned in the snow and cried from the cold.
When Wujiu saw her, the child was almost dead.
She managed to stabilize the other person's heart with magic, brought her back, and placed her in a warm room where she was nursed back to health for a long time before finally reviving her.
Because the baby was so small when she found him, she didn't have enough breast milk to feed him. She originally wanted to send the child to the village.
But the child would cry incessantly as soon as she was separated from him, and the families in the village who wanted to adopt him couldn't bear to see him suffer like this.
After all the twists and turns, Xue finally returned to her side.
Meanwhile, the family that had previously adopted her also sent her a milk-producing sheep.
Snow survived only because of that goat's milk.
In addition, Wujiu would occasionally give her magic potions, so the child, raised in this way, naturally possessed magical power.
When they were a little older, they started learning potions and magic from Wu Jiu, but unfortunately Wu Jiu himself didn't know much, and he could teach even less to his disciples.
It wasn't until the young disciple grew up that Wujiu hardened his heart and drove him away.
Just like when his master kicked him out.
The witch is destined to live a lonely life.
This is a belief etched in the heart of the Chinese tallow tree!
"Teacher, my luck is much better than yours!"
"I not only encountered a kind tribe, but also met a kind witch."
“Her name is Yunduo. We agreed that she would come to see me when she passes by my place.”
"I've also taken on a few disciples, but I don't teach them witchcraft; I teach them martial arts!"
"Does Master Wujiu know martial arts? It's the kind of powerful skill that allows you to defeat your enemy with just a sword."
As Lin Xue spoke, she even gestured with her chopsticks to illustrate her points.
"alright!"
"I knew you were capable, but I didn't expect you to have disciples!"
"Hurry up and eat, it'll get cold if you don't!"
Although Wujiu said that, she was actually happy inside.
In this lonely world, she was already content to have a close friend come to visit her.
In the past, I was worried that my disciples would not want to leave; now I'm worried about when they will leave.
She hadn't experienced this kind of family-like life in a long time.
"Teacher Wujiu, can I sleep with you tonight?"
I have so many things I want to tell you!
After finishing the meal, Lin Xue washed the dishes and chopsticks, then helped her teacher back to her room.
Although no one lived in her room, it was kept clean by the teachers who cleaned it regularly.
However, to show her closeness, Lin Xue decided to squeeze in with her teacher tonight.
I also told her about what I've seen and heard in the past few years.
"You!"
Although Wujiu looked disapproving, she did not deny it.
The night was long, and the master and apprentice talked for a very long time until they finally couldn't stay awake any longer and fell asleep in the middle of the night.
During this process, Lin Xue inquired about the teacher's health and, taking advantage of their close relationship, checked the teacher's health condition.
Early the next morning.
Lin Xue got up very early.
Then I went to the kitchen to tidy up and put some ingredients in.
He went to his own room and took out the quilt that hadn't been used in a long time, putting it in the sun to dry.
