021. [You May Make a Lot of Money, but I Will Never Lose Money]
Back mountain, bamboo forest.
Mao Nanbei lies on the legs of the Taoist nun, with four cat paws slightly curled up, and even his eyes have narrowed.
It can be seen that the woman's cat-stroking skills are really superb.
"You must be subdued, meow~"
Mao Nanbei will come to the bamboo forest to attack every now and then. I don't know if it's because the child loves to play pranks, or is he eager to be stroked in his heart?
Maybe it's both.
After the woman's slender five fingers rubbed the cat's ears again, today's cat-stroking officially ended.
Mao Nanbei lay on her legs, silently enjoying the afterglow for a while, and then jumped slightly, jumped onto the woman's shoulder, and then half of his body hung there.
The Taoist nun-like woman is too thin, a little too thin, and looks very weak.
Her shoulders are definitely different from Murong Yan's big shoulders. Mao Nanbei can only hang on them, not lie down.
After hanging on the woman's shoulder, the little black cat began to talk about the interesting stories of his trip down the mountain.
For example, what delicious food he ate, what fun things he bought, he killed a ghost king, and the whole process of meeting Lu Xun...
After the monster transformed, it was like rebirth. Her mind was not fully mature yet, so she was also childish and dared to say anything.
When she said that she wanted to accept Lu Xun as her beautiful mount, the Taoist-looking woman raised her white palm, clenched it into a fist, and then gently knocked her cat's head.
"Meow!" Mao Nanbei covered her forehead with her two small meat paws.
For the sudden lesson of the second sister, Mao Nanbei expressed confusion and said: "I just saw that he was good-looking and coveted his body. I didn't want to do anything that was harmful to the world. I..."
Before she finished speaking, her forehead was knocked again, and it was knocked three times in a row!
"Meow!" Mao Nanbei stopped talking.
After successfully sulking for two minutes, she began to chatter again.
The Taoist nun did not speak from beginning to end. She was like the best listener, just listening silently.
Mao Nanbei had long been accustomed to this.
The second sister was aloof. Before being accepted as a disciple by the master, she was really a Taoist nun.
She was the most rule-abiding person, but also the most unruly person. She would always only follow the rules she recognized. If she did not agree, she would not be restrained.
Therefore, Mao Nanbei once said that "rules are meant to be broken" was said by the second sister. In fact, the second sister did not say it, but Mao Nanbei felt that it was the second sister's words and deeds.
Of course, it can also be understood as a child's blame.
Speaking of which, the second sister is so cold and a Taoist nun, but she has a very cute name, her name is Gu Xiaoman.
[Xiaoman] is the eighth solar term in the twenty-four solar terms and the second solar term in summer. She was born on this day and got this name.
As mentioned before, the second sister doesn't like to talk much. Even if she does, her speaking speed will be very slow and her punctuation will be very strange.
Because...
--She is a stutterer.
...
...
In the small study room in the back mountain on the other side, Ji Li, who was guarding Lu Xun, heard a knock on the door.
She was slightly stunned and felt strange about hearing the knock on the door.
The back mountain is forbidden to others to enter and exit at will, and Mao Nanbei never knocks on the door when he comes in, so who is coming?
Ji Li stood up and opened the door, and she felt that her eyes were bright.
The man standing in front of her was not much taller than her, and his head had a halo, like a light bulb.
Although it was the first time they met, Ji Li had heard about the appearance of the sect leader Shen Yan, and immediately saluted.
But what she didn't expect was that the sect leader was really as short as the legend said.
"Stand up, no need to be polite." Shen Yan showed a smile that he thought was very kind.
But he looked really fierce, and with a bald head, he didn't look very good.
He thought his smile was warm, but in the eyes of outsiders, it looked like a cruel smile.
"I came here mainly to see how the junior master's injury has recovered." Shen Yan said a word, then walked to the bed, scanned Lu Xun's body with his spiritual sense, and nodded slightly.
He recovered very well, worthy of my top elixir.
When he thought of this, the feeling of pain surged in his heart again.
Then, he turned his head and showed Ji Li a kind (cruel) and auspicious (endured) smile.
He came here today just for Ji Li, in order to leave a good impression on her.
Ji Li's talent has spread in the Demon Sect. Eight ripples, in the entire Tianchen Continent, are also rare, and there are not many in the entire huge Demon Sect.
The most important thing is that her five elements are very clean, the fire element attribute is very high, and the other four elements are negligible.
This kind of people are good candidates for practicing fire-attributed techniques!
And Shen Yan is one of the strongest people who practice fire-attributed techniques in the entire Tianchen Continent!
He wanted to take Ji Li as his apprentice.
According to the rules of the Demon Sect, when an outer disciple is promoted to an inner disciple, the elders who like the disciple can extend an olive branch. If there are many people who like the disciple, it is time for the disciple to counter-select.
Yes, it is very much like a talent show variety show in the fairy tale version...
Logically speaking, as the leader of the Demon Sect, Shen Yan has such a high level of cultivation, so he should not have to worry about apprentices.
However, isn't it because of his practice that his appearance has become hairless all over his body?
When describing stinginess, people like to use "a stingy person" as a "stingy person". Shen Yan is really bald.
Although he became like this because of a period of obsession when he was young, it is still quite scary for his disciples.
What if I also go into obsession?
The practitioners of Tianchen Continent are not practicing "Taishang Wangqing" or "Cut off the mortal nature".
The so-called "immortal" is a person in front and a mountain behind. People as tall as a mountain are immortals.
Immortals are also people, and people have seven emotions and six desires... In this case, everyone still cares about their appearance.
Of course, this is not the main reason. The point is that Shen Yan has shown with his actual actions that he is not a good teacher.
None of his disciples have made any progress so far.
The road to cultivation is very bumpy. It is a bit far-fetched that the male protagonist in the novel accidentally gets a skill and can practice it to become the best in the world without anyone teaching him.
The help of a good teacher to the road of cultivation is so great that it is unimaginable!
Although it is said that "the master leads you to the door, and the practice is up to you", some masters lead you to the main door, while some masters not only fail to find the door, but may even lead you astray!
You finally find the door, but he can kick you out!
Although Shen Yan is not so exaggerated, his teaching ability is really bad.
And he is stingy, and the welfare of his disciples is very poor!
On the contrary, there are several peak masters whose strength is only slightly inferior to his, but they are particularly good at teaching disciples and treat disciples more generously than him... This?? is embarrassing!
After a long time, Shen Yan is a little worried!
The Demon Sect often holds martial arts competitions among disciples, and he sometimes feels a little embarrassed, and urgently needs a beloved disciple who can support him!
After all... Although I have no hair, no eyebrows, even eyelashes and nose hair, I also want to save face!
In addition, he just gave away a top-grade elixir, and was thinking about how to make up for himself, and suddenly thought of Ji Li.
It is said that this girl has a close relationship with the junior master?
That's great!
She will definitely remember this favor!
Give a magic pill and get a beloved disciple...
--This wave is worth it!
