Chapter 2 From today on, I am your master
In a dead end.
The bun shop owner panted, propped up his knees, and looked at the little beggar in front of him: "Run! Aren't you a good runner? Keep running!"
The little beggar knew she couldn't run away, so she opened the dirty cloth and ate the buns greedily.
Eat every bite you can.
"You're still eating, right? I'm going to break your legs."
The bun shop owner strode forward.
The closer he came, the faster the little beggar ate.
Holding a rolling pin, the bun shop owner hit the little beggar's head hard.
The little beggar closed his eyes tightly and shrank his body.
But to the little beggar's surprise, the pain did not come for a long time.
The little beggar opened his eyes and saw a well-dressed older brother holding the big hand of the bun shop owner.
Xiao Mo looked at the skinny beggar trembling in front of him and asked, "What's wrong with her?"
"Who are you? Why are you meddling in other people's business? She stole my buns! And she did it several times! I'm going to teach her a lesson!" said the bun shop owner angrily.
Xiao Mo let go of the boss's hand and threw a few coins into his arms: "Is this enough?"
The bun shop owner was stunned for a moment, then nodded quickly: "Enough, enough, enough"
"You're lucky, kid!" The bun shop owner cursed a few words and left the alley.
The little beggar looked at the young man standing in front of him, swallowed, and clasped his little hands tightly to his heart.
Xiao Mo squatted down and asked with a smile: "Don't be afraid, I won't hurt you. What's your name?"
"Jiang Jiang Qingyi." The girl answered timidly.
"Well, that's a good name. Do you want to come with me?"
"Go with you?"
"Yes, I want to take an apprentice. I think you are good. If you follow me, you can have enough food every day. What do you think? Do you want to consider it?"
The girl looked at the remaining half bun in her hand, as if she was thinking.
Finally, the girl raised her head and looked at Xiao Mo seriously: "I, I will go with you!"
"Okay." Xiao Mo nodded with a smile, "My name is Xiao Mo. From now on, I will be your master. Call me and let me hear it."
"Master."
"Um."
After bringing Jiang Qingyi up the mountain, Xiao Mo took her to receive a disciple token and the women's clothing of the Longquan Sword Sect.
After returning to his own mountain, Xiao Mo asked Jiang Qingyi to take a shower and change into clean clothes.
When Jiang Qingyi stood in front of Xiao Mo again, Xiao Mo's eyes lit up.
Before, Jiang Qingyi looked like a tomboy, with short hair and covered in mud and dust.
But after Jiang Qingyi washed herself and changed into a dress, she did look a bit better.
Xiao Mo threw a wooden sword to Jiang Qingyi. "Starting today, you will learn sword skills from me. The sword technique I will teach you is called 'Cursive Sword Technique'. This sword technique requires practicing both sword techniques and sword moves. During the day, you will practice sword moves, and at night, I will teach you to recognize characters and recite sword techniques. Don't slack off. Do you understand?"
"Cursive Sword Technique" is the sword technique practiced by "Avatar Xiao Mo", and every move and style is reflected in Xiao Mo's mind.
Xiao Mo even wondered whether he could practice the "Cursive Sword Technique" in the real world after he left.
Jiang Qingyi hugged the wooden sword tightly: "Yes, Master"
"Follow me, first form."
In the next half month, Xiao Mo taught Jiang Qingyi swordsmanship every morning at dawn.
Jiang Qingyi studies very seriously and hard.
However, due to the lack of innate sword bones, Jiang Qingyi learned very slowly, and her aptitude could be described as "poor".
Another half month passed, and Jiang Qingyi still hadn't learned the first move of the Caozi Sword Technique.
"Master, am I stupid?"
One day, Jiang Qingyi said dejectedly while holding the wooden sword.
"Who said you are stupid?" Xiao Mo sat in the yard drinking tea.
Jiang Qingyi quickly shook her head: "No one told the disciples."
Xiao Mo stared at Jiang Qingyi and said lightly, "Come here."
Jiang Qingyi swallowed and slowly walked to her master.
"Qingyi, you're not stupid at all," Xiao Mo patted Jiang Qingyi's head gently. "As the saying goes, everything is difficult at the beginning. Let's not rush. Take it slow. You don't have to think too much about anything. Just do your own thing. Got it?"
"Hmm!" Jiang Qingyi nodded.
With the encouragement of her master, the girl regained some confidence.
In the following time, Xiao Mo often bought some flesh and blood of spiritual beasts for Jiang Qingyi to eat.
Jiang Qingyi's progress is still slow.
A total of one and a half months had passed, and Jiang Qingyi hadn't even reached the Qi training level, which was the threshold for cultivating immortals!
One day, Xiao Mo went down the mountain to buy some wine and heard a few outer disciples talking:
"The disciple that Elder Xiao accepted has no talent at all. I don't know why Elder Xiao accepted her as his disciple."
"It's been a month and a half, and she still hasn't reached the first level of Qi training."
"Damn it! My talent isn't higher than that Jiang Qingyi's? I haven't even become an elder's disciple!"
"Hahaha, Xiao Mo usually looks down on people. I want to see how that girl gets beaten up in the Longquan Sword Sect's new blood competition in a year!"
Just as a few people were drinking and talking, Xiao Mo walked up to them.
"Fellow Daoist, what's wrong? Is there anything wrong?" A strong man saw Xiao Mo and turned around to ask.
"Nothing, it's just that I feel uncomfortable when you say that about my disciple."
As soon as he finished speaking, Xiao Mo kicked them in the stomach.
The strong man flew ten meters away.
After teaching these people a lesson, Xiao Mo returned to his Linggan Peak as if nothing had happened.
It was already late at night when Xiao Mo returned to the top of the mountain.
Under the moonlight, a girl is still practicing sword.
Her movements were so clumsy, but she tried so hard.
"Qingyi." Xiao Mo called the girl's name softly.
"Master." Jiang Qingyi put away the wooden sword and trotted towards her master.
"You haven't slept yet?" Xiao Mo patted her head.
"Master, Qingyi can't sleep and wants to practice more." Jiang Qingyi said softly.
Xiao Mo smiled and said: "It's a good thing to work hard, but we should also pay attention to the combination of work and rest."
Jiang Qingyi shook her head vigorously: "It's okay, Master, I'm not tired."
Looking at the girl, Xiao Mo's eyes were a little complicated, but he didn't stop her: "Okay, practice for one more stick of incense at most, and then go to bed, understand?"
"I understand, Master. You should also have a good rest." Jiang Qingyi nodded.
Xiao Mo turned around and walked back to his wooden house.
Looking at her master's back, Jiang Qingyi pursed her lips and held the long sword tightly in her hands.
Just as the master was about to enter, Jiang Qingyi called out softly, "Master."
"Hmm?" Xiao Mo turned around.
Under the moonlight, the girl's eyes were like ripples in a spring, clear and gentle: "I will definitely not let Master down in the sect's new blood competition!"
Xiao Mo was stunned for a moment, then he raised the corner of his mouth, nodded, and smiled:
"good."
