Zhu Yi awkwardly walked away from Jinbao, only to run into her nominal apprentice at the door.
Little Baizhi stood timidly at the door, holding her small purple storage bag: "Master, I have some grain here. You can use it to help the people outside."
The little girl's eyes were so clear that Zhu Yi couldn't help but feel ashamed, realizing that she was truly unworthy of being called "master."
Fortunately, Jinbao raised the little girl very well.
Her once dry and brittle hair is now jet black, smooth, and shiny.
Her skinny little body has become much stronger now. She is still wearing the clothes that Zhu Yi sewed for her, but every few days Jinbao casts a cleaning spell on the little girl.
Zhu Yi smiled and said, "Keep what I gave you. We don't know how long we'll be staying here. When we get back to the sect, your master will make you some golden fried fish and fried chicken."
Sure enough, as soon as she finished speaking, Xiao Baizhi breathed a sigh of relief. Children's thoughts really can't be hidden.
Zhu Yi then asked, "What has Senior Brother Jinbao been teaching you lately?"
"Replying to Master, I have learned the 'Qi Refining Primer'. My Uncle said that after we return to the sect, he will have Master find me a cultivation manual."
Zhu Yi was completely overwhelmed, feeling a buzzing in her not-so-bright head.
She wanted to say, "Why is Jinbao being so unreasonable? I still have a bunch of spells I haven't fully learned, and he's already busy with spells for children's early education?"
Without changing his expression, he said, "Alright, then I have another copy of 'Three Hundred Tang Poems' here for you to memorize first. I think we shouldn't rush to learn books on magic and techniques. Let's understand the philosophy of life, the beauty of nature, the hardships of the people, and then we can start discussing immortality and the Dao."
Xiao Baizhi looked aggrieved and tapped her sleeve with her little fingers: "But, Uncle Jinbao said that he had already reached the Foundation Establishment stage when he was my age. He told me to cultivate diligently and not to slack off."
Well, how should I put it? Spirit beasts are naturally more resilient than humans. Jinbao was born with the cultivation level of Foundation Establishment, okay? This dog looks honest and simple, but he really knows how to trick people in the smallest ways.
Zhu Yi couldn't very well expose him, so she could only lie without batting an eye: "Your Uncle Jinbao is exceptionally talented, of course we girls with ordinary aptitudes can't compare to him!"
"Young people, your eyes should have light, your heart should have poetry, and with an open mind, you will learn anything by leaps and bounds."
"Yes, yes, disciple will follow Master's teachings!" Little Bai Zhi's eyes shone brightly, filled with admiration and respect for Zhu Yi.
Her obedient demeanor made Zhu Yi feel very guilty.
You really can't fool good students with nonsense!
In the corridor of the best room in the sky, Su Linyuan had already overheard Zhu Yi's theory of poetry and songs, which he didn't know where it came from. He lowered his eyes and leaned against the door of his room.
Waiting for a rabbit to run into a tree stump.
"Does Yi'er also read poetry?" Su Linyuan's seemingly amused expression held a hint of teasing.
Zhu Yi escorted Xiao Baizhi back to her room and told her to take a nap. When she went out again, she saw Su Linyuan waiting for her.
Young people always have a carefree and unrestrained spirit, and Su Linyuan is no exception.
"Su Linyuan, I have a question. Don't you hibernate?"
Su Linyuan raised an eyebrow and glared at Zhu Yi, "You have no manners, call me brother."
"I am of human blood, so I can choose to hibernate or not."
In fact, Su Linyuan wasn't telling the truth. Like all snakes, he needed to hibernate in winter. However, because he was half-human, the effectiveness of his hibernation was halved.
So lately he has been working at sunrise and resting at sunset, living a truly ordinary life.
Recently, he has noticed that his magical reactions have become sluggish. It is now approaching the twelfth lunar month, which is the time when snakes hide themselves to hibernate.
The snow snake that Zhu Yi had tamed was exceptionally stubborn; even after the master-servant contract was formed, it still refused to admit defeat.
Just a few days ago, it was still desperately resisting Zhu Yi's control inside the breeding bag.
Recently, due to his serious injuries, his cultivation level was forcibly downgraded after being bound by Zhu Yi's contract, so he obediently went into hibernation.
No matter how many amazing barbecues were prepared in front of him, with fragrant, golden-brown grilled meats dangling near his mouth, he didn't react at all.
Zhu Yi was discouraged: "Are all snakes this stubborn?"
Even when she spoke to Su Linyuan, she sounded a little sullen.
Su Linyuan touched his nose and looked away. "We snakes are loyal to one person and would never betray them."
"Come on, have you heard the story of the farmer and the snake?"
Zhu Yi told the story with a hint of anger: "A kind and simple farmer rescued a snake that had fainted by the roadside on a cold winter day. He put it on his chest to warm it up, but when the snake woke up, its first reaction was to bite the farmer."
"It's clear that not all snakes are good." Zhu Yi's eyes were full of disdain. She was a little angry and took out a sour fruit and took a bite.
"acid!"
Su Linyuan was momentarily speechless.
He thought for a moment, then took out a small pearl flower from his pocket. The pink and tender little pearl was inserted diagonally into Zhu Yi's black hair. The Buddhist lamp was a little angry and silently squeezed and squeezed, knocking the little pearl flower out.
