Disciples

Chapter 38 Disciple

At this time, Zhao Qi was drawing talisman in the room. Holding a thin pen dipped in cinnabar, he very carefully drew the features of a small figure on the bamboo paper. The little figure Li Wuxiang saw on the bamboo paper that night when he was haunted by the big ghost was drawn with ink, and his eyes were only dotted with cinnabar. But the one he is painting now is all blood red and more detailed. Although this kind of "more sophisticated" can only be regarded as children's graffiti to those who are good at calligraphy and painting, the difficulty is not that it resembles a human being, but that it resembles a god.

In order to pursue this god, Zhao Qi moved his pen very carefully, almost carefully on the paper bit by bit, so that the essence he poured into the tip of the pen could be contained in the drawing of the talisman without being released, and his expression was restrained.

Just then I heard a gentle knock on the door, and with a slight thought, the little cinnabar figure on the paper immediately became lifeless, like a child's doodle.

Zhao Qi took a sharp breath, turned around and stared at the door, almost breaking the pen barrel: "Who!? What happened!?"

After a short while, I heard the voice: "...Master, this is disciple Li Jiye."

"You..." It was Chen Xin or someone else from the Chen family who was knocking on the door. Zhao Qi had already cursed at this time. But when he heard Li Jiye's voice that seemed to be frightened, his anger became a little less, but he still felt depressed and unbearable - the bamboo paper he used was extremely precious, and the value was not in the paper itself, but in the quilt. His master Zhao Puppet had practiced it, and he still had more than a hundred pieces in his hand. A few days ago, he had scrapped many of them before he had some usable ones, and now he had scrapped another one.

He took a deep breath, still asking in a questioning tone: "What are you doing here?"

The voice outside the door sounded a little shocked and aggrieved, but still respectful: "Disciple... When I am at home, I should pay close attention to my parents and elders in the morning and dusk... After I go back, I think that my master is like my father, so I should also If you want to continue as usual, just... Master, please forgive me for disturbing Master’s cultivation.”

Zhao Qi breathed heavily in his chest and was stunned. He didn't expect these words to be spoken by Li Wuxiang.

He fell silent, looked at the thin pile of bamboo paper on the table, slowly put down the pen, and breathed out softly.

This apprentice reminded him of himself and his master, Zhao Puppet. When I think of Master, the first thing that pops up in my memory is Master's face - always frowning, always unhappy, never knowing when he would open his mouth and scold him.

"You stupid thing!"

"Can't you understand this?"

"Look at Senior Brother and Sister You!"

"Okay, okay, that's it!"

"Why don't you go down the mountain if you don't understand anymore? Wouldn't it be much easier to be a street kid?"

But there will always be some other bits and pieces - when I was kneeling alone in Taiyi Hall for a day and a night, I came over with a straight face, kicked him first, and then threw away the cake. When he banged his head against the wall in fear and anger because he had to practice tomorrow but still couldn't write a single talisman after spending half a month, he frowned and shouted: Okay! Let’s practice for a few more days before we talk!

He knew that Master was a mean and cold person, but he always felt that Master was also good to him. Therefore, everyone else on the mountain dispersed, and he was the only one who kept guarding the longevity lamp. While searching for his master, he once thought that if he would establish a sect and accept disciples in the future, as long as he was not so stupid and annoying and could be a little smarter than himself, he would treat him better than his master treated him, and he would be a better person. A dignified and solemn teacher.

He knew it was a bit difficult. Because when he was depressed in the mountains, he kept several dogs intermittently to relieve his boredom. Those dogs are hard to change their bestial nature. They looked cute when they were young, but they are always disobedient once they grow up. He taught him by beating and scolding, but as a result, those beasts were inhumane. After being beaten and scolded, they either shrank and hid when they saw him, or they treated him as an enemy and barked wildly, until he couldn't help but strangle them all to death. .

He has now accepted Li Wuxiang as his disciple. Although he wants to use it, he also plans to use it to practice before using it and learn how to be a master. But he didn't expect that when he saw his qualifications in the morning, he felt extremely unhappy and accidentally lost his temper. He thought about it all afternoon and felt that he couldn't hold it back again, which was really bad.

Therefore, at this moment, listening to his words, most of his anger was gone. When I thought about the sentence "Master is like father" again, it all disappeared.

He sighed: "Okay, okay, come in."

The door was pushed open, and he saw Li Wuxiang walking in, closing it behind his back, and standing at the door.

"Master..." Zhao Qi wanted to say, "Master, I just had a bad temper." But he immediately realized that he must not say these words, lest the disciples would not respect him enough, so he changed his words, "What I taught you, Did you practice this afternoon?”

"Master, I have already practiced. I practiced all afternoon. I only got up and walked around for a short time. This disciple must not neglect it."

When Zhao Qi heard Li Wuxiang's voice at this time, he was no longer so frightened, as if he didn't care about what he had just asked him about. His temperament is much better than mine... Huh, in that kind of family, how could it be bad to be pampered and pampered? Now that the family is broken up and everyone is dead, it’s also...

He immediately took a breath and said in his heart, I am already a teacher.

"Come here, let me check your pulse."

Li Wuxiang walked up to him and stretched out his hand. Zhao Qi put his finger on his pulse. After a while, I couldn't help but frown. Li Wuxiang lowered his eyes respectfully, and Zhao Qi looked at him for a while.

His qualifications...are even better than he thought.

Yesterday, when I checked his pulse, his aura was still mixed, and he hadn't even touched the threshold of cultivation. But after practicing for such an afternoon, he actually had some very weak aura in his body! This...

Zhao Qi hesitated in his heart.

The reason why he wanted to use Li Jiye was because he was noble. Previously, he thought that he had good aptitude and comprehension, but there are many people with good aptitude in this world, but they just don't have the fate of Taoism, so most of them are buried. After I found the golden entanglement, my cultivation should be rapid. Now that I have just entered the door of Qi Refining, I can guarantee a youthful life of more than 40 years. If I can use the golden entanglement to cultivate to the peak of Qi Refining like my master as soon as possible, I can guarantee more than 60 years of youthful vigor.

In this way, there are nearly 30 years of good time, maybe I can really form a pill! By then, once the golden pill is formed, there is no need to worry about any illness, and I can be young for a hundred years and live another hundred years.

But now, he found that the aptitude of his disciple is not just a "good" word, but I am afraid that he is a rare genius. If such a person can practice seriously, his realm will surely improve rapidly, which is absolutely incomparable to himself. What if... what if he is really accepted as a disciple? What if his temperament is really as gentle as it is now, and he can be a good master... maybe he can benefit from his influence in the future, and such things are not unheard of.

But things like character and temperament...

Zhao Qi stared at Li Wuxiang for a while and retracted his hand.

"You practiced well." He thought for a while, "When you came here, didn't you feel that there was anything different in the town?"

"Master, it seems that there are fewer people, and the way they look at me is a little strange. I thought it was because I am now your disciple... Is there something else going on?"

Zhao Qi nodded: "It's an evil spirit."

He was satisfied to see that Li Wuxiang was stunned and took a breath in panic, but soon calmed down.

"Chen Xin knew about this earlier and has already gone to the man's house. When he comes back to report, I will take you tonight to remove the evil spirit and see what kind of character you have."

The second update will be at 8 a.m.
