"My lady, this is the most suitable thing for you."
He bent down and hung the jade pendant on Xihe's waist. In an instant, the light flowed and then returned to normal.
Fan Xiu nodded in satisfaction, and the group thanked the elder and left. The street was still bustling with activity, with red lanterns hanging from the street to the end of the alley, and all kinds of food and entertainment were dazzling.
Everyone had a great time tonight and didn’t go back until they were sleepy.
After the Spring Festival, Xihe started teaching his two 'apprentices' again, and occasionally took them to Qingmang Mountain for practical training. Uncle Zhong's fancy moves were no match for the uncivilized animals, but the little tree demon was extremely powerful.
When the prey rushed over, the tender little hands immediately turned into long vines and tied it tightly.
Pa pa pa.
Xihe applauded: "There is progress."
The little tree demon quickly tied up the wolf demon and laughed, "Mother is so powerful."
The dense forest covered the sky, and the woods were dim. The calls of various animals came from the distance. Fan Xiu and Xihe stood together. Xihe was afraid that he would be bored at home, so she would bring him here every time.
Fan Xiu rarely spoke and left the cultivation matters to Xihe.
Uncle Zhong hesitated and said, "Young Madam, am I really stupid? You have been teaching me for so long but I haven't made any progress." After saying that, he was very annoyed and felt that he had brought shame to the young master.
"Some are good at fighting, and some are good at crafts."
"I let you practice combat so that you can be more capable of fighting against enemies in the future. But it doesn't mean that you must be an outstanding Taoist. You are quite talented in alchemy, so you can choose this path."
Xihe smiled and said, "So Uncle Zhong, you don't have to worry about it. Just do your best."
Uncle Zhong suddenly understood, bowed, and bowed deeply: "This old servant has been obsessed. Thank you, Madam, for your enlightenment."
From then on, when facing the little tree demon with even more outstanding talents, Uncle Zhong could keep a calm mind and would no longer be so anxious that he couldn't sleep. He followed Xihe's instructions and walked forward step by step. Although it was slow, it was extremely solid.
Xihe used to think that the little tree demon was a quiet vine demon with a free and innocent nature.
Later I found out that it wasn't.
After three years of teaching, the little guy finally made the grade. He ran over with a ferocious Piranha plant on his head. She was so frightened that she almost dropped the melon in her hand. He pointed at him and said, "You, what kind of flower is that?"
The little tree demon scratched his head and said as a matter of course: "The man-eating vine."
Xihe: “…”
Hey, I was wrong.
But she should have thought of it earlier. After all, this child is too warlike. Every time he hears that he is going to go to actual combat, he gets so excited that he almost rolls on the ground.
I walked forward and walked around the flower: "What does it eat?" Does it eat meat?
The next second, the little tree demon said, "Eat meat."
Xihe: “…”
Oh, no wonder he loves meat.
He grabbed the little fellow's ears and sternly warned him, "You are not allowed to eat humans! You are not allowed to eat talking spirits or monsters that have grown into human form!"
"Mom, it hurts, it hurts."
He took back his ears and said aggrievedly: "I heard it."
Xihe wanted to hit someone again, frowning: "What do you mean by 'other'? Don't talk like that."
He runs around the streets every day, and I don't know who learned it from, but he keeps saying "renjia". Every time he opens his mouth, Xihe gets itchy hands. After being told several times that he doesn't change, she can't help but do it.
The little tree demon immediately said seriously: "Yes, mother!"
Puff——
Fan Xiu was happy.
Xihe closed his eyes, out of sight, out of mind: "Okay, go play."
The little tree demon was immediately liberated and ran out. Soon, the sound of a group of children laughing could be heard outside the yard, and then gradually faded away.
Fan Xiu came up and hugged Xihe back to sit down: "Drink tea, don't frown."
In early spring, everything comes back to life. The newly planted flowers in the yard bloom, the persimmon tree grows new leaves, and the sun is warm. Two people sit in the yard basking in the sun, feeling sleepy.
Xihe yawned slightly and slumped on the table: "So boring."
Turning his head, his gaze lingered on the man. In the past three years, his temperament had become more and more stable, but the world of cultivation was very nurturing. There was no sign of aging on him, and he was still so handsome that people couldn't close their legs... cough cough cough.
"In a few days, it will be the day for Shangyuan Sect to accept disciples once every ten years."
"Well, Xiaobao also wants to join Shangyuan Sect. He has made an appointment with his friends."
"What about Uncle Zhong?"
Fan Xiu raised his hand to brush the strands of hair from her ear, his eyes gentle. "Aren't you bored? Once Xiaobao joins the sect and has Master to look after him, we can go for a walk. As for Uncle Zhong...how about asking him to help drive the carriage?"
This is also a selfish motive of his. Uncle Zhong’s talent is really too poor.
The above Yuanzong people are wary of Madam. If you put someone in there, they will naturally take good care of him for Madam's sake. But it is impossible to teach him as carefully as Madam. After all, the talent is there, and becoming an immortal is too slim.
But Xiaobao is different. He has good talent and Sect Master Changhao is particularly fond of him and will definitely teach him well.
Fan Xiu blushed a little: "Madam, what do you think?"
In the end, this matter depends on my wife's attitude. After all, she is the one who teaches others and she is the one who works hard.
"Of course."
Xihe rubbed her face against his palm: "This arrangement couldn't be better."
The sun was shining on her body, making her feel warm. Xihe closed her eyes and said, "I'll take a nap." The breeze blew, and her long hair fell on her face. Fan Xiu raised his hand to push her hair behind her ears, and then sat there staring at her sleeping face.
A few days later,
The gate of Shangyuan Sect is wide open.
Early in the morning, the family brought the little tree demon to the mountain gate.
There are towering mountains, a spacious square, and a ladder that seems to have no end. The square is full of people, elderly people, children of seven or eight years old, both boys and girls, some wearing gold and silver, some in rags.
Everyone's face was filled with desire as they stared at the ladder.
Swish,
A flying sword came from the mountain.
A man stood on the sword, dressed in white, with an imposing aura. His voice echoed throughout the square: "The time has come. Test your spiritual roots and climb the ladder to heaven."
Boom——
A bell rang,
A dozen white-robed disciples flew high into the sky and quickly formed seals.
The next moment, a huge spirit-measuring plate appeared in the air. Everyone looked up. The next second, the measuring plate shone brightly, and countless rays of light fell from the sky, projecting onto everyone.
After a few seconds, the light disappeared.
Everyone looked down at themselves. Some had a thick blue body, some had yellow, red and blue, some had five colors and purple, and those without spiritual roots had no color at all.
Some were ecstatic, some were stunned, some fell to the ground in despair, and some were wailing.
"All those with spiritual roots, step forward and head towards the Heavenly Ladder."
Looking at the weeping people, his tone softened: "Everyone, please go back. Although you may not be destined to become immortals, there is more to life than just cultivating immortality. Don't be obsessed."
In an instant, more than half of the square was empty.
Those who stayed behind were still lying there in despair and despair.
