Leisurely fairy way

Chapter 4 A Talk on Cultivation

It rained for two days at a time, pattering and pattering, she and Xiaomi had agreed to pick lotus pods but did not go.Xiaochun sits on the railing of the corridor watching the rain, strings of crystals drip from the eaves, a curtain of rain, the world outside the rain seems to be a moist Jiangnan scenery.The light pink petals that bloomed in the flower bed fell all over the ground. Xiaochun had never seen this kind of flower. They were layered on top of each other, and the light green stamens were almost invisible.The water in the pond was light blue with ripples, some petals fell into the pond, and the fishes swam around the petals and devoured some.

She had never seen a fish eating flower petals, so Xiaochun sat up straight and watched the scene carefully.

"This flower is called Miqiongluo, the petals are slightly sweet, and fish like to eat them." Someone behind said.Hearing this familiar voice, Xiaochun frowned.In the past, she was so beautiful that she was pursued by people everywhere, and some stalkers would deliberately 'encounter' with her. She didn't like this kind of self-proclaimed romantic.

But now her face has nothing to recommend it.Is that really a chance encounter?A noble young master, what does he want to do in this rainy day when he walks to a lonely place in the backyard?
"You little girl, you don't know how to behave like this, you don't turn back when people talk to you." The third young master's voice sounded slow, with a kind of grace, but there was no feeling of anger.He also sat next to her. He was wearing a wide-sleeved white shirt without a belt, very casual.He was not yet crowned, and his hair was tied up casually.Xiaochun also looked at him lightly from the side, his face was like a crown of jade, he was really a handsome man.Of course, if he appeared in the backyard dressed like this, he was more likely to be a lunatic.This was completely different from his luxurious attire that day.

The third young master said again: "It's fine if you don't show courtesy, you don't even say anything, but it's difficult for you to speak?"

Xiaochun thought he was bored, but she didn't have the heart to talk to him, if she wanted to sit down, she only looked at her rain.The third young master stretched out his hand, and suddenly, a scene that surprised Xiaochun appeared, a honey qiongluo unexpectedly broke away from the branch and flew into his hand.It's just a moment.Xiaochun didn't react, and was a little dazed.

Looking at Xiaochun's face, he felt a little complacent, and then thought that he was really going back to life, and he was showing off in front of a little girl.He coughed uncomfortably, and the flower stretched out to her: "Eat and see if it's sweet."

Xiaochun glanced at him, what kind of skill is this?Is there such a kung fu?Could it be that although he is young, he actually has profound inner strength?She took the flower, and many thoughts flashed in her heart. The flower was stained with rain, and the color was still pink. She tore off a petal and put it in her mouth to chew. It did have a little sweetness, but it was not obvious.It is more of a fragrance of the flower itself.

Xiaochun nodded: "It's sweet... What kind of kung fu did you use just now?"

The third young master took the flower in her hand, tore off the petals and put it in his mouth, without answering her question.

Thinking that this person is really a bit stingy, Xiaochun said patiently: "Third young master, may I ask what kind of kung fu you used just now?"

"Master, I'm in a bad mood now, so I don't want to talk about it."

His smile is lazy, really indescribable rascal.Xiaochun swallowed his anger and thought, why should I know? If I know, I can still learn.He didn't ask him any more, and turned to face the path in a fit of anger.

"Your clothes are neater this time. The patched outfit I saw you wearing last time, young master, is really funny." The third young master said, "Xiaochun, have you been sold into the mansion? You are still a slave here. child?"

A child as young as her would not be recruited as a servant, but would only be sold.Isn't answering this question revealing your identity?Xiaochun naturally did not speak.The third young master didn't ask any more.Xiaochun felt uncomfortable staying here, so she jumped off the railing and wanted to go back to the kitchen.The third young master followed her through the corridor, Xiaochun walked fast, turning left and right to try to get rid of him, but he just followed behind her leisurely, as if ghosts and ghosts were there, Xiaochun was sure that this person had kung fu body.

The rain was as unhurried as the people behind her, but it wet her hair and shoulders.Seeing that they were almost at the kitchen, it was eye-catching to bring the third young master in like this.

Xiao Chun stopped, turned around and said helplessly, "Third Young Master, I was wrong. I still have work to do, please let me go back."

At this time, the third young master seemed to be in a 'good mood' suddenly.He hugged his shoulders and said with a smile: "Master, I want to be merciful and tell you the answer to the question just now. Come with me to a place." He approached her in an instant, lifted the back of her clothes, and flew into the air. rise.

Xiaochun was frightened, the clothes were not strong enough, she would fall off, she hurriedly hugged the third young master's legs, and shouted: "Master, I was really wrong, next time I see you, I must salute, okay, let me go down , I'm a little afraid of heights! Hey!"

The third young master saw that the little girl hugged his thigh tightly and felt a little uncomfortable, so he lifted her up and hugged her in his arms, but he had no other intentions, she was still so small.But Xiaochun was very disturbed: "You...what are you doing?" She forgot for a moment that she was an ordinary and thin girl.

"I'm afraid you'll fall! You little girl, master, I haven't tasted that far yet, so why be nervous?" The third young master approached her, speaking with the scent of flower petals just now.He felt a little funny again, this little girl has always been so indifferent, he didn't expect her to be quite funny all this time.

Xiaochun calmed down, and finally her heartbeat stopped so fast. Although her legs were still weak, she still didn't dare to look down.Clutching the clothes on his chest tightly, she realized that the third young master's clothes were dry. Has the rain stopped?She didn't feel the raindrops falling.Xiaochun finally lifted her head out, and saw the handsome face of the third young master at a glance. She used to look at all kinds of handsome men and beautiful women and saw people with numb aesthetics, so naturally she didn't feel any emotion or shame. .Besides, this one is her half-brother at a deeper level.Xiaochun looked away, it was raining.

It's just that the rain doesn't hit them.

Xiaochun gave the third young master a strange look.Gathering up her courage, she looked down. When she flew up just now, she thought it was some kind of qinggong, but now she realized that they were five or six floors above the ground. Which qinggong was so terrifying?And the scenery below is no longer a garden, but a mountain forest, a green wave, and the treetops undulate and stretch into the distance.The world is so fresh and natural.Xiaochun was overwhelmed by this beauty. For the first time, she felt that the steel and concrete city was so ugly, and the advancement of technology had destroyed everything that was beautiful.

"Aren't you afraid?" The third young master said softly.

"Xiaochun, there is a legend in the world that there is a kind of person who can ride the clouds and ride the fog, move mountains and fill the sea, and live forever. The world calls these people gods."

"Are you a god?" Xiaochun looked at this yuppie young master.Not quite.

The third young master snorted: "There are no gods in the world. But there is a kind of people who are similar to gods. They can move mountains and fill seas, fly clouds, and prolong life. This kind of people are cultivators. I am a cultivator. "

Xiaochun's heart skipped a beat, comprehension?She has a vague impression.By the way, didn't the fat man at the same table in her middle school just love to read such novels, and even lent her a few of them.Xiaochun is a practical person, and after reading a few novels that are full of fantasy, he gets tired of it.Unexpectedly, cultivation actually exists in this world!There were many thoughts in her mind, if she could also practice cultivation and have supernatural means, then she could take Xiao Xia and Granny Liu out of the Ji Mansion and live by her ability.She can even travel around the world here, doing things she has always dreamed of.

The wind blew from below, and the third young master brought her down.They came to a valley, and the water of the lake reflected the surrounding bushes and flowers faintly.At this time, the rain stopped. The rain in summer is like this. It stopped when it said it had stopped. The sky cleared up quickly, and the light blue sky was very pure, as if there were gods really living on it.Xiaochun looked up, she seemed to understand the immensity of the sky.The third young master waited for her and looked at the sky.He didn't know what this little girl was thinking, this girl was a little strange, her plain eyes didn't look like that of a half-grown child.

Xiaochun looked at the sky and suddenly made up her mind, she knew what she wanted to do.

The third young master saw that the little girl turned her head suddenly and stared at him closely, with a flattering smile on her face: "Third young master, I also want to cultivate, can you teach me?"

The third young master raised his eyebrows: "You think it's so simple, then the whole world will be full of cultivators."

Xiaochun put on a girl's look, and grabbed the third young master's sleeve: "Third young master, I was really wrong just now, can you teach me how to cultivate?" She forgot again, she is now an ordinary and thin little girl.Although the third young master looked at her with an expression that didn't suit her, he just pulled the corners of his mouth slightly to express his ridicule.

"The young master invites you to look at the scenery here, so you should take a good look at it. Don't talk too much, or the young master will throw you in this barren hill and go back alone." The third young master threatened her, and he didn't seem to be joking like that.

Xiaochun thought, this shouldn't be so urgent, I can't eat hot tofu in a hurry.The ancestors said it long ago.

The two sat down by the lake, and although the grass was still wet, the rain soaked her pants and her bottom was cool.She didn't feel anything, since the quality of life has plummeted, she hasn't been so particular about it.The third young master lay on the grass, his clothes would not get wet anyway.He felt that what he did today really made him puzzled. He brought a little girl who didn't know anything here to see the scenery, and showed off her tricks to her. Moreover, this little girl was not good-looking and had a bad personality.

"Not everyone can cultivate." The third young master closed his eyes and said slowly: "Cultivation requires talent, which we call spiritual roots. The chances of spiritual roots appearing are not high. Only one out of a thousand ordinary people will appear. People with spiritual roots, and most of them are four-spiritual-rooted or five-spiritual-rooted. Although this kind of spiritual root can also be cultivated, it is difficult to achieve anything. There are about [-] cultivators in the Song Dynasty, but there are very few people who have achieved high levels of cultivation. "The third young master turned his head sideways, his eyes were as deep as a pool of water, and his eyelashes were half down, Xiaochun couldn't see anything clearly.

"You are considered lucky to have a spiritual root. Although it is a five-spiritual root, it is better than nothing..."

After speaking, the third young master stopped by himself: "You don't understand these things." The young master lost his interest, got up from the grass, and picked her up by the way.

"It's almost time and time, let's go, the young master will take you back."

Xiao Chun said: "Why has it been so long?" She was a little anxious: "Third Young Master, hurry up, I'm late for work, Manager Xu must scold me."

The third young master still said slowly: "Why panic, who will scold you if the young master is around."

Xiaochun secretly hated, she didn't expect the third young master to accompany her, wouldn't this cause trouble?The third young master carried her and flew back slowly, even slower than when he came.After stopping on the small road not far from the kitchen, Xiaochun also calmed down. She was scolded for being an hour late, and scolded for being two hours late, so she didn't panic at all.

The third young master said: "Go in, do you want the young master to accompany you?"

"Thank you, no need." Xiaochun said, flying so slowly on the road, it was useless to urge him, what else did he want to do now.The third young master raised his head to look at the sun, and the weak sunlight shone on his body. Due to the accumulated rain and humidity, Xiaochun looked at the world with light, and this man also had a light light like a god, with his wide sleeves and wide body. His white shirt was so white that it seemed to be about to light up.

"The young master is leaving, no need to send it off." He smiled and walked slowly towards the corridor.From far away, there was a voice, "Teaching exercises in private is against the precepts of the master's school. If you have a fairy fate, you will always embark on the road of cultivating immortals. Don't worry."

Xiaochun was scolded, she lowered her head calmly, waiting for Manager Xu to finish scolding.Not counting scolding her, he also fined her to stay and chop wood.Everyone left, and Granny Liu didn't dare to stay and help her.

Xiaochun was sitting on a small stool, weakly chopping wood with an axe.The surroundings were very quiet, only the sound of crickets and frogs. She looked up at the sky, and the shadow of the moon was faint, as if there was nothing.There is only a small pile of firewood for her to chop, but where does she have such great strength, when the ax goes down, there is only a gap, and it is always inaccurate, causing the wood scum to fly around.

Xiaochun was tired and hungry.The door to the kitchen where the master cooks is locked, but the door to the kitchen where the servants cook is only ajar.She put down the axe, touched her flat stomach, and planned to steal. Anyway, there are no surveillance cameras here, so no one would know if she ate it.

She groped into the dark kitchen, took advantage of the light from the window, opened the steamer, and sure enough there were still some white flour steamed buns left.But she didn't dare to eat indiscriminately. The steamed buns here are usually counted, and if you eat them secretly, you will be found out.She hugged open the first drawer, and there was some rice in a bowl in the second drawer.She couldn't wait to take some rice with her hands and stuffed it into her mouth, feeling that it tasted very good.I remembered that when I was in school, the teacher said that chewing rice has a sweet taste, but at that time, no matter how I ate it, I didn’t feel it was sweet. Only now did I realize that the rice is really sweet and delicious.

She stuffed it twice, and was about to get the third one when she heard the sound of the door opening, creaking.someone is coming.Xiaochun walked gently to the door and closed it.He also thought that this would not work, if Manager Xu came to check whether she was lazy and saw that she was not there, he would be scolded again tomorrow, and the punishment would be doubled.

But wouldn't it be suspicious if she ventured out now?Xiaochun put the steamer away, hid under the window and looked out, only to find that the person who came was wearing a gray blue long coat, he looked like a child, he was looking around as if he was looking for something, it was Xiaoxia... the person who came was Xiao Xia?She breathed a sigh of relief.

Open the kitchen door and go out.

"Xiao Xia, why don't you sleep so late? What are you doing here?" She stood behind Xiao Xia.

Xiaoxia turned her head and saw her, her little finger behind her back unnaturally: "My sister didn't come back... I couldn't sleep... I heard from Granny Liu that my sister was fined for chopping firewood, so I want to come and help..."

Xiaochun sighed: "What can you help? Forget it, come and chop firewood with my sister, and we will go back together after chopping."

"Yeah." He was a little happy, and sat beside her.

Lu Han was late at night, and the two of them leaned against each other, but they didn't feel too cold.
