When he had doubts in his mind, Mu Xinian would be distracted and observe his master.
But after being discovered by Lianyi, he was made to clean the toilet for a week on the grounds that he was not practicing seriously. Mu Xinian no longer dared to secretly observe Lianyi.
Time flies, and four years passed in the blink of an eye. Mu Xinian was admitted to university and became a student of the History Department of Wan'an Normal University.
There were still two and a half months of vacation before school started, which was just the right time for Lianyi to let Muxinian carry out a round of practical operations.
Because Mu Xinian retained the memories of his previous life, it was like rebuilding from scratch, so his progress was very fast.
Lianyi praised Mu Xinian for his intelligence, and then began to speed up the teaching. After all, he knew that these would be just a drop in the bucket for Mu Xinian who was retaking the course.
Sure enough, Musinian accepted the teaching well. One taught quickly and the other learned quickly.
After learning the theoretical knowledge, what remains is practice. Before that, because Mu Xinian had to attend classes, he only went to Longhu Mountain on weekends and holidays, mainly to receive Lianyi's martial arts guidance.
In addition to improving the combat power, Lianyi also taught Mu Xinian the skills of drawing talismans, carving arrays, catching ghosts and exorcising evil spirits.
When Lianyi takes an order, she will bring Mu Xinian with her so that he has the opportunity to observe and learn and get into the role in advance.
Now that she has a whole block of time, Lianyi lets Mu Xinian choose the tasks by himself, choose those within his ability, and then try to handle them by himself. When he encounters problems, he can always ask her, his master, for help.
Mu Xinian took on a few small tasks as Lian Yi requested and then went down the mountain.
Sect Leader Deng was counting the number of miniature array plates Lianyi had sent him, while he joked:
"Junior sister, Mu Xinian is a very motivated boy, so it will be easy for you to be his master. It looks like it won't be long before he can become a master."
"Xi Nian has a quick mind and learns things quickly, so I speed up his teaching. After all, Longhu Mountain doesn't support idle people. It's time for him to share the burden for the sect."
"Isn't it a little too early?"
The headmaster was a little worried.
"It's not too early. He's already an adult."
Ripple said with a smile.
"That's perfect. I have a mission here that you might be interested in. I thought you would take Xi Nian out alone, so I didn't take that mission. Since you are free, you can go."
"What mission?"
“Unknown entities appeared on the border, attacked people, and disappeared without a trace.
Only then did they realize the seriousness of the problem and sent the message back, hoping to get help from the Heavenly Master. "
Master Deng briefly explained the content of the mission.
"That sounds very interesting. Master, help me take it. I'll go to the border to take a look."
Lianyi accepted the task without hesitation.
After all, she has basically completed the task of training the apprentice. What remains is for the master to lead the apprentice, and the practice depends on the individual. Moreover, Mu Xinian is a beginner, so he doesn't have to worry about it.
During this time, she had to fulfill her duties as a Heavenly Master and accumulate some merit for herself.
"Okay, I'll take over the task."
Master Deng said with a smile.
On the other side, Musinian also went to complete the task he had accepted.
When he accepted the mission in Longhu Mountain, the scope of the mission was divided according to his level as a low-level Heavenly Master, and he would not be given a mission that was too difficult.
The first thing was to set up a Feng Shui layout, which was very simple. He just walked around and adjusted the furnishings of the host's house and it was done.
In the slightly distrustful eyes of the host, Mu Xinian said that if the newly placed feng shui formation did not work, they could complain to him.
The couple then stopped looking at each other and said they would give feedback in three days.
The second mission was in a remote village, which was isolated from the outside world and still retained some old ideas.
A young couple had no children after they got married. In order to have a child to take care of them in their old age, they spent all their savings and bought a four-year-old boy from a human trafficker.
At the beginning, the couple and their child were very happy, but unfortunately the good times did not last long. In the second year after the boy came to this small family, the hostess finally became pregnant.
What's more, she was pregnant with twins, a boy and a girl. After the twins were born, the bought children completely lost their status and became servants in this family.
The boy was not fed enough and was often beaten and scolded. The fourteen-year-old child looked like a ten-year-old and appeared malnourished, while the couple's child grew up tall and strong.
The boy never understood why his parents, who had loved him so much before, would treat him like this now?
But he was young and was not allowed to go to school, so he lived in ignorance and only knew to do his job well and take good care of his younger siblings.
It was such a child who was eventually hit on the head by his two tall and strong siblings when they were pushing him. He bled profusely and eventually died quietly when the couple gave up on treating him.
After the death, the couple still felt that it was unlucky, so they just found a random place to bury the body.
Then strange things happened at home. First, the twins said that the boy came to see them. Then the two children had nightmares all night long. The result of not sleeping well was that they could not concentrate. One of them broke his neck and the other broke his spine.
It was only after one of their children died and the other was injured that the couple realized something was wrong. When they wanted to find someone to help, they found that they could not leave their own house at all.
The two were trapped in their own house for a month. They consumed all the food and were about to starve to death. Then they were discovered by a neighbor who noticed something was wrong and broke down the neighbor's gate.
Only then did I realize that the couple was lying on the ground, as if they were trying to crawl out of the yard, but unfortunately they had fainted from hunger.
Although the couple were rescued, one of their children died and the other was injured, and they themselves were emaciated and seriously injured.
The knowledgeable elders in the village said that the child who was abused to death was seeking revenge on them, and asked them to quickly find a master to send the child away, otherwise they would definitely not end well.
Then, strange things spread in the village like a plague. Bad things happened to the families of those who had bullied the boy before. Instead, those families who had helped the boy privately and gave him food and drink were not affected.
Those families who were not affected by the disaster did not want the village to continue to be in chaos, so they asked the students who returned to the village to ask the Taoist priest for help in taking in the boys.
But three days later, someone escaped from the village and asked for help. He said that no one could get into the entire village and the people inside could not get out. Something big must have happened.
At this time, Mu Xinian was standing outside the village. Others could not see him, but his Yin-Yang eyes could see clearly that the whole village was surrounded by a strong resentment.
The people in the village were affected by the resentment and could not leave their yards. Now they were almost out of food and ammunition. They could only pray non-stop, but unfortunately no one could hear them except themselves. (End of this chapter)
