Spiritual Masters

After taking two steps, she squatted in front of him.The child saw clearly that this man was a gentle middle-aged man.

The man seemed to see his daze, and asked in a soft voice. "Son, why are you here by yourself?"

The child looked up at him, shook his head with tears in his eyes, and said nothing. It was so cold that his teeth chattered uncontrollably, making a "cracking" sound.

The man picked up the child, and the warmth spread all over his body immediately, and he shrank subconsciously towards the neck of the man.The man was tickled by his hair, smiled and said: "You child...today is New Year's Eve, but many people got separated from their parents?"

Mentioning this, the child began to cry again, warm tears streaming down the man.The man felt a little distressed when he saw this, and he put his hand on the child's back to comfort him up and down: "Could it be that he was discarded?"

The child shivered and didn't speak. He looked at the narrow alley with a sigh, and couldn't bear it: "It's snowing here, I'll take you away."

The child couldn't hear what the man said at all, only a vague sound.He was dizzy and unable to struggle, and fell asleep on the man's body.

"Ahem..." The child opened his eyes and looked at the unfamiliar environment, and shrank to the foot of the bed nervously, looking at the person next to the bed warily.

"Don't be afraid, kid." The man smiled and waved to him: "You burned for three days, come here and let me see if it's better."

"You... who are you?" the child said tremblingly.

"My name is Xie Jingliu, you don't have to worry, this is a safe place." Xie Jingliu forcibly grabbed the child over and pressed his forehead and said, "The fever is gone, I'm resting, if you're hungry, you can ask someone to bring you something food."

Hearing the food, the child's stomach immediately grumbled, and he looked at Xie Jingliu embarrassedly and said nothing.

"Hey, wait a minute." Xie Jingliu left the room in a few steps.

Seeing that the person had left, the child paused for a moment and crawled out with all his hands and feet. Although the furnishings were simple and simple, the room was elegant and quiet, and there was still a burst of fragrance in the room.

The fragrance smelled very pleasant, and the child had never smelled it before, so he inhaled vigorously.

squeak-

The door was pushed open, and the child hurriedly hid in the corner of the bed, he saw Xie Jingliu walking towards him with a plate of food, he swallowed and looked at the person vigilantly, his toes were too hard, and the mattress was pulled out of several folds.

Xie Jingliu sat by the bed and waved to him with food: "Come here and eat something."

The child looked at the food hesitantly. The food tasted too delicious. After a while, he leaned over and started to gobble it up. He hadn't eaten for a long time and was extremely hungry.

"Eat slowly, eat slowly, are you starving?" Xie Jingliu said warmly along the child's back.

All the food on that plate was eaten by the child, and he felt embarrassed after he finished eating, his face flushed and he said childishly, "Thank you, thank you."

"How old are you?" Xie Jingliu wiped the corner of his mouth with distress: "What's your name?"

After the child ate, he saw that this person was not malicious, and he was no longer so vigilant. He shook his head and said, "It's called...Chi Sheng..."

Xie Jingliu sighed: "Look at you, you should only be four or five years old. You can stay here from now on. There are many children your age here, so you can play with them."

Chi Sheng's eyes lit up when he heard that he could leave, and then looked at the man hesitantly.

Xie Jingliu smiled lightly: "Good boy, don't be afraid, the people here are very nice."

Chi Sheng's eyes turned hot: "Uncle...you are so kind to me, thank you."

Xie Jingliu was taken aback when he heard that address, and then teased: "You have no relatives now, why not follow me, I will be your father in the future, how about teaching you to raise you?"

Chi Sheng was also taken aback, as if he didn't expect to have any more relatives, he said blankly, "Are you going to be my father?"

Xie Jingliu said: "Is it possible?"

Chi Sheng nodded violently a few times: "Father!"

Xie Jingliu laughed out loud: "Hey, good Chi'er."

Chi Sheng hugged Xie Jingliu excitedly and rubbed him twice, like a clingy puppy.

"Okay, Chi'er, take a good rest first, and I'll take you to meet other disciples tomorrow." Xie Jingliu's heart was so soft that he let him lie down and cover him with a quilt to coax him to sleep.

Chi Sheng looked at him eagerly: "Father, do you want to go?"

Xie Jingliu said: "Don't go, father is here with you."

Accompanied by the warmth of An Shenxiang's back and palms, Chi Sheng fell into sleep after a while.

The next day, when Chi Sheng got up, he didn't see Xie Jingliu, he nervously got out of the bed with bare feet and searched around, the door was pushed open with a "squeak" and he hid under the table vigilantly.

Seeing someone wearing it, he jumped out from under the table and whispered, "Father..."

After shouting, he was stunned. The person who came was a handsome and gentle boy, and he was suddenly at a loss as to what to do.

The boy walked a few steps towards him, knelt down and said, "Are you Achi? I'm Chu Yu, you can call me Senior Brother. Master has gone to the main hall to do some business this morning. Let me visit you."

"Brother?" Chi Sheng called out cautiously.

"Yeah." Chu Yu rubbed his head: "In the future, you can also find senior brother if you have something to do. Senior brother will take care of you when master is not around."

The smell on Chu Yu's body was very good. He sniffed it and said, "Brother, you smell so good."

After speaking, his stomach groaned, and he glanced at Chu Yu in embarrassment.

Chu Yu smiled: "I'm hungry after seeing Achi, brother, let's take you to eat something."

"...Hmm." Chi Sheng was a little embarrassed.

Chu Yu led him out of the house, and he let out a "wow" when he saw the scenery outside.

It snowed last night, and the plants outside the house were covered with a layer of snow. The branches and leaves of pines and cypresses and peach trees were mixed together, and there was a little pink in the green. There were a few lotus flowers standing in the small pond on the right hand side, and there were fish swimming in it. .

He asked curiously, "Brother, why do these plants not wither when it snows?"

"Qingquan Mountain is a fairy mountain, and the plants here are like spring in all seasons." Seeing that he was not wearing boots, Chu Yu picked him up and said, "Qingquan Mountain can be said to be like spring all the year round. Except for rain and snow, everything else is here. Like spring."

"What a nice view."

Qingquan Mountain is the largest fairy mountain in the original country, and it is also the place where the spiritual master sect is located. It is divided into four mountains.

The gate of Qingquan Mountain is the one that enters and exits the mountain gate. Here, the green hills are green and the main hall is magnificent. There are three altars in the central area. The bell tower on the top floor of the main hall hovers two phoenixes, accompanied by the ringing of the bell.

Surrounding Qingquan Mountain are Bianqingya Mountain, Qingsong Mountain, and Qingqiu Mountain. The three mountains are connected to the main mountain by a bridge. Under the bridge is a clear stream with carp jumping from time to time.

The peak and the palace are shrouded in clouds, and the auspicious dragon and the auspicious crane are all looming in the clouds. At a glance, the clouds and mists are boundless, like a fairyland.

Chu Yu took him to a room, the interior decoration of this room was similar to Xie Jingliu's, but this room was a little less elegant and a bit colder.

He poked his head and saw that the table in the room was full of dishes, and there was a young lady sitting there.

The girl was a little surprised when she saw the person coming, and said, "Brother, where did you pick up a child?"

"This is Achi, and we will be our junior brother from now on." Chu Yu walked over and pulled out a chair, put Chi Sheng on it and said, "Achi, this is your senior sister Miao Yuanyi. Very good, you can find her in the future."

"Senior brother!" Miao Yuanyi pouted unhappily, "I don't want to take care of little brats."

This senior sister really had a bad temper, Chi Sheng was a little scared and grabbed Chu Yu's clothes and said, "Senior brother..."

"You don't have to be afraid of her." Chu Yu served Chi Sheng some food and said, "Eat."

Miao Yuanyi also filled a bowl of rice and asked while eating, "You haven't said where you picked this child up."

"Master brought it back from the capital." Chu Yu ate slowly and said, "From now on, this will be Master's son, so don't be rude and unreasonable to Junior Brother."

"I know." The girl pouted impatiently, and she said vaguely: "Then this kid will also join the soul master sect in the future?"

"I don't know." Chu Yu ordered some food for Chi Sheng and said, "Ah Chi, do you want to join the school of spiritual masters?"

"What's that?" Chi Sheng ate with greasy mouth.

His dumbfounded appearance made Miao Yuanyi burst into a "puchi" laugh, and his eyes lit up.Miao Yuanyi said with a happy face: "This little kid looks cute, it's really fun to be dumb, I'll take care of him from now on, senior brother!"

"..." This senior sister was really scary, and Chi Sheng immediately puckered his mouth and wanted to cry.

Chu Yu looked helpless: "Junior Sister, he's not a toy, don't play around!"

He turned his head to answer Chi Sheng's words: "You are still young, if you are interested in two years later, you can go to Qingquan Academy with those young disciples to listen to the master's lecture."

Chi Sheng nodded with a half understanding: "Oh..."

Miao Yuanyi said: "Brother, it's rare that there are things you can't tell."

"After all, he is still a child." Chu Yu said helplessly with a smile on the corner of his mouth: "I can't tell him too profound things."

With the growth of age and the edification of the environment, Chi Sheng became interested in sect affairs. He caught Xie Jingliu and ran over excitedly: "Father, can I go to the school with those young disciples to listen to the master's lectures?" gone?"

"Of course you can go if you like." Xie Jingliu pulled Chi Sheng in front of him and gestured: "Chi'er has grown taller, it seems that he hasn't been picky over the past few years."

"Then when can I go?"

"Let's go tomorrow."
