Master will only delay my promotion

"Master, this disciple has an appointment to learn medicine refining with Senior Brother Wu in the afternoon. The time is almost up, so I will go first."

Qing Yi paused, "Learning to refine medicine, didn't you say to improve your cultivation first?"

Duan Yibai just opened his mouth and said, "It's a combination of work and rest. Besides, learning to refine medicine can also improve the disciple's mastery of the fire spirit root."

"..." Qing Yixin said, aren't you majoring in Ice Spirit Root? Why do you want to improve your mastery of Fire Spirit Root?

"Then I can teach you as a teacher."

The side jobs of the three seniors were all taught by Qing Yi.

"No need, Master, you are already very busy teaching the three senior brothers. You should go to ask Senior Brother Wu for advice." Duan Yibai immediately refused, and then said: "Then the disciple will leave first, Master. goodbye."

Without waiting for Qingyi to speak, Duan Yibai ran away and disappeared.

"..." Qing Yi felt a little helpless looking at the door that was constantly being pushed and swayed because of people running too fast.

It feels like Xiaobai is avoiding himself, and seems a little afraid of himself.

Getting sicker?

Originally, he wanted to leave too, but the master was not there, so it was not appropriate to stay in the room by himself.

Suddenly, he saw a painting on the desk on the other side.

The face cannot be seen clearly from this angle, but the person in the painting can be seen with loosely rolled snow hair.

Now, it is obvious who is in the painting.

Out of curiosity, Qing Yi walked over.

The person in the painting is exactly him, and the painting looks like him reading a book.

Qing Yi knew that Duan Yibai liked to paint him very much before, but his painting skills at that time could only be said to be average, even a bit childish.

I don't know when the exquisiteness became so vivid, the people in the painting are so vivid, even the expression of the eyebrows and eyes are exactly the same as me.

Without extremely careful observation and tracing, it is absolutely impossible to draw to such a degree.

Judging from the traces of ink and the freshness of the paper, it seems that it was painted only this morning.

Seeing a big frame at the foot of the desk, Qing Yi pulled out a scroll and opened it, only to find that it was still him.

I took out a few more pictures, all of them myself.

Such a big frame, which is full of portraits of myself.There are some paintings that seem to be older, and the painting skills are relatively immature.With the addition of each painting, the painting skills are getting better and better, until it is now amazing.

Qing Yi carefully put those scrolls back into the frame, and then glanced at the unfinished picture on the desk.

He sighed helplessly.

A person like Xiaobai keeps all his emotions in his heart and is half unwilling to confide in others, so it's no wonder that he has become like this.

He was also wrong, he shouldn't have adopted a way of alienation just because he felt indifferent.Xiaobai is still a child, and he was raised by himself, so he is naturally very dependent on himself.

Facing your own alienation, you will definitely feel sad and sad.

Qingyi decided to treat Xiaobai better in the future, and always be with him, so that he can untie his knot as soon as possible, and return to the way he was before.

On the other side, the residence of Wu Hongxuan in the side hall.

"Xiaobai, are you really here?" Wu Hongxuan was worrying about how to refine the pills needed by those disciples without damaging the foundation.

It's not that he can't afford to refund the money, the main reason is that the deposit given by those disciples is for a few rare herbs, which he has almost used up.

"That's right, didn't we agree yesterday." Duan Yibai patted Wu Hongxuan on the shoulder, and said, "Let's talk about it first. When I finish practicing, I will share half of the money."

Wu Hongxuan was puzzled: "Xiaobai, are you short of money?" He never raised money as soon as he asked.

Wait, Wu Hongxuan suddenly thought of something.Could it be that Xiaobai went down the mountain to do odd jobs to make money?

Master didn't give Xiaobai pocket money?

"Xiaobai, if you are short of money, tell senior brother, senior brother has plenty of money." Wu Hongxuan patted his chest angrily.

"I'm not short of money..." Duan Yibai really wanted to show his pile of money in front of everyone.

Why can't you think in a better direction when your first reaction is that you are short of money?

"then you?"

"I just want to make money with my own ability, and I don't want to rely on others anymore." Duan Yibai repeated the words used to coax Master.

Hearing this, Wu Hongxuan looked deeply at Duan Yibai, making Duan Yibai terrified.

"Xiaobai, master, he is not someone else." Wu Hongxuan put his hand on Duan Yibai's shoulder, and said earnestly: "We know that you are hurt and stimulated, but if you do this, there will be no results."

"...what result?"

"Cultivate with Master." Wu Hongxuan said, shaking Duan Yibai twice, as if he wanted to shake Duan Yibai out of his insane state.

"The senior brothers are your strong backing. Since the master has no place to belong, your chances are still great, and we will help you create opportunities."

"..." Duan Yibai was speechless.

No, what's wrong with you all.Isn't it a joyful thing for a child to grow up and want to support himself?Why can he be hurt by love no matter what?

"I really don't like Master anymore." Duan Yibai argued weakly.

Then Wu Hongxuan gave Wu Hongxuan a caring look of disapproval and worry.

"Xiaobai, don't run away from your heart anymore. We all know your feelings for Master. You almost lost your life because of Master that time...Huh?"

Duan Yibai covered Wu Hongxuan's mouth, looked around, and was relieved that Qing Yi was not there.

"If you agree not to mention this matter, let it pass after it has passed."

Wu Hongxuan blinked, indicating that he understood.

Only then did Duan Yibai let go of his hand, but he still did not forget to remind: "Don't mention this matter in front of Master."

"Don't worry, none of us said anything." Wu Hongxuan reassured Duan Yibai.

At the same time, I feel more and more sorry for this little junior brother, who has done so much for the master, but kept it from the master, for fear that the master will blame himself for this.

Such a feeling, they are really moved.

"Okay, don't talk about it." Duan Yibai really didn't want to talk about his so-called infatuation, and changed the subject: "Let me try refining medicine."

Wu Hongxuan took Duan Yibai into his pharmacy, and was about to introduce the functions of each container to Duan Yibai, but saw that the other party was operating it skillfully.

"Xiaobai, why are you so proficient?"

Duan Yi replied without raising her head: "I have been reading books before, and I remember them well."

Of course Wu Hongxuan knew that Duan Yibai had read the book, the other party said it yesterday.But can seeing and doing be the same thing?

If everyone can get started after reading the book, refining medicine will not be a difficult task.

"I want Gu Yuan Pill, right?" Duan Yibai searched for the herbs he needed, ground some of them into powder, and put some directly into the furnace.

Wu Hongxuan looked at Duan Yibai's confident appearance, and that Lao Tzu's aura of number one in the world, and unconsciously stood up straight.

Could it be that the little junior brother is the one in a thousand peerless genius?

until......

"Damn!" Duan Yibai was burned to the corner of his clothes by the sudden out-of-control fire from his fingertips.

Wu Hongxuan hurried over, "Are you all right, are you hurt?"

"It's okay, it's just that the corner of the clothes is burnt." Duan Yibai waved his hand.

I was very puzzled in my heart, and immediately asked the system: "What's going on, why did my fire get out of control?"

He had obviously mastered the previous world very well, and refining a medicine could be said to be within his grasp.

The system checked the database and explained: "It is such a host, because the energy flow in each world is slightly different. Your ability to control fire was trained in another world of cultivating immortals, and what you adapted to is the energy of that world." way of circulation."

"So I have to find the common ground between the energy flow of this world and that world first, and then adapt to it?" Duan Yibai asked.

"Yes, that's it, you are really smart, host." The system praised.

"Senior Brother Wu, go to practice first, and leave the rest to me." Duan Yibai planned to get used to the new fire control method first in the room.

"Ah?" Wu Hongxuan was taken aback, "I'm here with you, you can ask me any questions you have."

"No need, it may take me a while, brother, don't waste your time." Duan Yibai said as he pushed Wu Hongxuan out of the room.

"If I have any problems, I will come out to you."

With a bang, the door of the alchemy room closed.

Wu Hongxuan touched his nose, which was almost hit, and felt a little sad that he was rejected by his junior brother.

Duan Yibai looked at the medicine stove again, and found that the medicinal materials inside had been scorched by the fire he had just done.

Knowing very self-awareness that a lot of medicinal materials would probably be wasted, Duan Yibai chose to buy from the system mall in order not to use up all the medicinal materials of his senior brother.

Quality is not important, first practice the feel.

Wu Hongxuan was still a little worried, so he waited outside the pharmacy, thinking that if the junior brother was in trouble, he could rush to support him at any time.

But after waiting for a long time without hearing anything, Wu Hongxuan thought that Duan Yibai was getting better.

Then I heard a loud "boom" in the room, followed by Duan Yibai's "I'll go!"

He hurriedly knocked on the door and asked anxiously, "Xiaobai, are you all right? Are you injured?"

"..." Duan Yibai was a little speechless looking at his torn clothes and the burning furnace.

Although he still hasn't mastered the key to precise fire control, his fire is so powerful that even the stove specially used for refining medicine is almost scorched.

"I'm fine, senior brother, don't worry." Duan Yibai shouted through the door: "Senior brother, hurry up and practice, I feel that I have found the trick."

How can you make me feel at ease?Wu Hongxuan was really afraid that the whole house should be up in a while.

"Brother, don't worry." Duan Yibai reminded: "Don't forget that the master told you to lay a solid foundation quickly, so as not to cause sequelae. Besides, I major in ice root, even if I accidentally ignite something, Isn't it a matter of minutes to put out the fire?"

This is true, Bing Linggen is indeed convenient for extinguishing fires.

Thinking that Master might really have to check his basic condition in a few days, Wu Hongxuan decided to go to meditate first.

"Then Xiaobai, if you have any questions, you can come to the brother's room to look for them. The brother will go to meditate first."

"Okay." Duan Yibai replied.
