Chapter 272 Ding'an's Past Encounter with Bai Yi
Little Chi Yanzi never expected that what his master said about that man being a member of the royal family of the demon world turned out to be true.
To be honest, based on his understanding of his master, little Chi Yanzi would most likely not believe her words. After all, he had fallen into the hands of his master so many times, right?
Take the elixir that has been studied recently, for example, one of the ingredients requires Guanglingxiang.
Ordinary Guanglingxiang usually grows in rotten mud beside the stream, so it is not difficult to collect. But my master said that since we are now developing spiritual medicine, we cannot use ordinary Guanglingxiang. It must be from a stream with a spiritual vein as its source.
This kind of stream is hard to find!
His master was a stubborn person after all. After wandering for many years, he finally found a place, which was a nearby stream.
However, the Guanglingxiang beside the stream was not yet ready for picking, and it would take a few months, so he built a thatched hut here and lived there.
However, she lived peacefully, but she spent all day looking after the Guanglingxiang. One reason was that she was afraid that it would be picked by other herbalists, and the other was that the medicine was hard to come by and needed to be well looked after.
The creek was slippery to begin with, and he had fallen into the water a few days ago. When he came back, he was mocked by his unreliable master, who even scolded him seriously for neglecting his training today. It was really...
And the prince of the demon clan was found by the stream.
It's strange to say, ever since I fell into the water, my master always went to the stream with me, but he just watched and gave instructions, never helped me, and just laughed as he watched me get flustered.
"Oh..." Thinking of this, little Chi Yanzi couldn't help but sigh and threw a piece of firewood into the furnace.
Who made me have such a master!
And the reason why he sighed was not only because he "met the wrong teacher", but more because of the life-extending pill.
To be honest, my master is not a generous person in his daily life. He always saves money on food, clothing and other daily expenses. Even when it comes to himself, he keeps everything simple. He even calls it: practicing Buddhism means "doing things that are contrary to one's will" so that one can "move one's heart and endure one's nature, and increase what one could not do before."
But if you say that the master is stingy, he is willing to spend a lot of money on alchemy and medicine. Those spiritual plants that he cultivated, each one of them required a lot of effort to grow well. For these spiritual plants, he even moved several places.
There was also the life-extending elixir given to the demon prince a few days ago. It took the master two years to refine it. I don't know how many furnaces of elixir were wasted before he succeeded. After working hard for a long time, he finally made five pills, and he fed it to the prince without hesitation.
Based on little Chi Yanzi's understanding of his master, unless he was absolutely sure, he would never joke with his life even when testing medicine.
Master just wants to save that demon!
"Hey!" Little Chi Yanzi sighed again, and this time he imitated the tone of Fairy Tumi exactly.
Forget it, forget it. He is my master after all. What else can I do?
Little Chi Yanzi shook his head like a little adult, picked up the blowstick and started blowing into the furnace.
After a while, the water in the stove was finally boiled. Following the master's instructions, little Chi Yanzi only made a pot of apricot blossom tea and went into the house with the tea tray.
But he still felt strange: it was said that visitors were guests. In the past, even if it was a stranger who came to ask for medicine, the master would let him brew a pot of tea, such as purple bamboo shoots or health-preserving herbal tea. It was much more decent than this flower tea! But the master insisted on serving flower tea himself, which was really a bad way to treat guests!
Today's master is really weird!
Before entering the hall, he heard a burst of laughter. The laughter sounded so hearty that even a young child like little Chi Yanzi felt as if he were basking in the spring breeze.
The demon man never spoke since he recovered, and Xiao Chi Yanzi once thought he was dumb. Today, a man in white came to the courtyard, and after hearing the two quarreling, Xiao Chi Yanzi was really surprised.
It turns out he can talk!
Not only are they good at talking, but they are also very powerful when arguing!
Don't judge a person by his appearance! This demon man usually keeps quiet and helps his master with his chores. His master always calls him "dumb". Who would have thought that he is actually the prince of the demon clan? It's really surprising.
Just as he was lost in thought, he heard the man in white in the room say, "Fairy actually has such means, she is truly a rare talent, it would be a waste of talent for her to stay in this world. In my opinion, it would be better for her to follow me to the demon world, where she will surely be able to create a new world for herself."
What? This guy wants to take Master to the demon world?
Little Chi Yanzi hurriedly lifted the curtain and entered the room. Just as he was about to speak to stop them, he heard Fairy Tu Mi laugh and say, "The messenger is really a joke. No matter how good your world is, it is still separated from the netherworld by a river. I am just a mere wanderer. How can I have the virtue or ability to dare to dream of it?"
right! That's it!
Hearing what Fairy Tumi said, little Chi Yanzi couldn't help but nodded - fortunately, his master was not so confused as to do that.
But since they are so kind, they would never reject you so bluntly, right? This is really against the etiquette of hospitality.
Master is really a little weird today!
Little Chi Yanzi served tea to the three people sitting there. He wanted to stand aside and listen quietly, but he didn't expect that Fairy Tu Mi would send him out and close the door. No matter how hard he listened, he couldn't hear any sound.
This might be a curse. What is it that he can't know?
The master normally never avoids him, so what happened today?
Could it be that he knew that the taciturn guy was the prince of the demon clan, so he wanted to get some benefits from him?
They are demons! How can they take advantage of them so easily?
Little Chi Yanzi was unhappy, squatting by the fence. The more he thought about it, the more he felt that his master was like this. After all, she had tricked countless people in the past. But for the time being, he could do nothing but pull the weeds to vent his anger, and kept muttering, as if he was blaming Fairy Tumi. After about a quarter of an hour, all the weeds by the fence were pulled out by Little Chi Yanzi, and the wooden door of the main house suddenly opened, and Fairy Tumi rushed out yelling.
"You little bastard, the Phoenix grass that I planted with great difficulty, the flowers haven't even formed yet, but you pulled them all out. Are you tired of living?"
Phoenix grass? What is that? How come I have never heard of it?
"Ah this... this..."
Little Chi Yanzi stood up hurriedly, hesitatingly, and wanted to retreat, but there was a fence behind him and he had nowhere to retreat.
He had never seen his master so ferocious before! He was really scared!
Fairy Tumi came closer, raised her hand high, and was about to hit little Chi Yanzi.
Upon seeing this, little Chi Yanzi quickly closed his eyes, but all he got was a slap on the forehead.
Although it hurt, it was far beyond what the master's aura could produce.
Little Chi Yanzi opened his eyes in confusion, only to see that Fairy Tumi still had a frown on her face and an angry look on her face.
This this?
"Why are you so angry, fairy? It's just that the child is naughty for a moment. Just give him a scolding."
At this time, the man in white came out of the house, fanning himself and persuading with a smile.
Fairy Tumi smiled when she heard this: "Why? Does the Messenger Wuchang want to control how I teach my disciples? Are all the people of the demon clan nosy?"
That's really rude!
The man in white smiled when he heard this, but he didn't answer. He just walked forward, squatted down and said to the little Chi Yanzi: "Little kid, I guess you are not having a very good time in the human world. Why don't you follow me to the demon world? That's not a place where people are judged by appearance."
Uh……
Little Chi Yanzi looked at the man in white, blinking his watery eyes with an innocent look on his face.
This man looked nice and was even willing to help him out, so why was the master so rude to him from beginning to end?
But he really never felt inferior because of his appearance, never.
The master said that one’s appearance is determined by nature and one has no choice, but one can decide where one’s heart lies in the end.
He is calm about it!
Little Chi Yanzi was about to say something when he saw Fairy Tu Mi blocking his way.
"There is no need to worry about this, Messenger Wuchang. Everyone has their own destiny. Besides, my master is not dead yet. As long as I am alive, I will protect him well."
"I'm sorry for being rude." Bai Wuchang bowed apologetically, then turned back to the main house and said, "I hope Your Highness will consider carefully what I just said. The royal bloodline should not be buried!" After saying that, he left.
Little Chi Yanzi looked back outside the courtyard, but he didn't see him. However, he was not curious. After all, he was a member of the demon clan, so it was not surprising that he had some magical powers. It was just...
"Master, what happened today? Why did you treat guests like that?"
"There are certainly ways to entertain guests, but if the visitor is not a guest, then there is no need to be polite." Fairy Tumi finally returned to her usual state.
What does this mean?
"That person looks very polite, doesn't he?"
"He is not an easy person to get along with. A'yan, remember this: there is a type of person who looks amiable and speaks sweetly, but the more such a person is, the more scheming he is. You have to be on guard against him, otherwise one day you will be harmed by him, and you don't even know what means he will use!" He sighed again.
"Remember, remember, it's always a good idea to guard against people with three points."
……
"'It's always a good idea to be on guard against others.' Master's words are indeed true."
The man who came was wearing a yellow robe with wide sleeves, a cloth bag on his waist, a green bamboo on his back, and he turned around after flicking his whisk.
"Who are you?" Bai Wuchang looked very puzzled. He thought he didn't know many people, but if he had met someone with such a strange appearance, he would definitely remember him clearly. However, he had no impression of the person in front of him.
Bai Wuchang saw who was coming and couldn't help but frown.
Wait, he actually met someone with a weird look, could it be...
"It's you!?"
"Brother!" Lingxiang showed joy on her face.
The person who came was none other than Chi Yanzi.
