Salt woman and white lotus

Chi Zhongying started her day-to-day working life like this.

It's impossible to please, because the Tangxian syrup was delicious that day, and she had an extra daily task of making desserts every day.

Chi Zhongying: Regret!

The task Bai Yan planned for her was only the first month's work.After cleaning up the debris in that room, it's time for her to arrange the next part of the work for Chi Zhongying.

On this day, Baiyan stopped Chi Zhongying early in the morning and gave her a few bags of new seeds—eating Tangxian every day is a bit boring, but Chi Zhongying can only grow Tangxian and Zhaoguo—"Here, These are the seeds of Baigen, Qingping, and floating lotus. The white root is planted in soil, and Qingping and floating lotus are grown in water. No matter how delicious it is, no matter how changeable the taste is, it should be changed after eating for a month."

After all, Ruyi tree is not the kind of plant that only stores a single piece of information. Chi Zhongying uses it to grow something that tastes better than directly planting something.

Tangxian and Zhaoguo - the peaches and puddings in Chi Zhongying's eyes - Chi Zhongying is not tired of eating them, otherwise he should have grown some other fruits and vegetables long ago.She knows that "peach" and "pudding" are both fairy fruits, so she won't feel that she has had enough.

What's more, Bai Yan obviously didn't want to leave her appearance.If she really fell in love with some kind of fairy fruit and left her side, even if she joined some great sect in the future, she probably wouldn't be treated so well at Baiyan's place.

People have endless desires and know the taste of food. Chi Zhongying felt that he didn't have such good self-control, so he simply didn't eat so many good things from the beginning.

Knowing how delicious something is, but being able to see it or not to eat it is too greedy!

Therefore, although she was curious about the taste of other fruits and vegetables, she was not in a hurry to grow them.

Chi Zhongying did not pay as much attention to material desires as ordinary people.Her family background is good enough for her to enjoy a very good life, and she has seen most of the extravagance and glitz in the world.When she arrived in Yunshu World, although there were many things she didn't understand and had never seen before, they were not enough to make her too surprised and lose her composure.

In the original world, she had long been numb to the emotion of surprise.

In Bai Yan's eyes, this has turned into staying out of the world again and not being surprised.

It is difficult for ordinary people to develop such an indifferent attitude.

"From today, you will follow me to learn how to embroider." Bai Yan ordered lightly.

"Embroiderer?"

"Yes, embroidery worker. Start from sewing, and learn embroidery after you know how to use needles. The basement is finished, and I decided to teach you embroidery in the next month."

After Chi Zhongying had breakfast, she first went to the backyard to find a plot of land, and planted the seeds given to her by white salt.After that, Bai Yan took her to a tea room on the second floor.

Most of the things in the tea room were cleared away, leaving only empty tables and cushions.Bai Yan flicked his sleeves, and there was a pile of fabrics on the table.

"Embroiderers are different from the female reds that mortals are used to referring to." Bai Yan picked up a scrap of cloth, and began to sew neatly with a silver needle threaded in his hand, "Mortal embroiderers are embroiderers, while immortal embroiderers are forging. "

After listening to her explanation, Chi Zhongying gradually understood - this is an amazing skill.Bai Yan was crowned as the number one forging master with the identity of Xuanhua, and her forging skills could never be mediocre.

Bai Yan's hands are dexterous, and the aura flows through the slender silver needles and is guided into the piece of fabric, gradually engraving a three-dimensional magic circle during the stitching.

The brilliance flowed, and the piece of fabric was shaped little by little by needlework, into the shape of a sachet.The threads are knotted and intertwined from time to time, and finally pass through the mouth of the sachet.Bai Yan pinched the two ends of the string and pulled it, fastened the sachet, and the four thread marks sealed on it lit up.

Seeing the fleeting light made Chi Zhongying's heart warm.

Can she learn something like this fairy method from Bai Yan?

Baiyan said calmly: "This is the simplest heart-cleaning embroidery. No matter what kind of spices are put in this sachet, it can add an additional effect of destroying evil and calming the mind. This embroidery is actually a kind of formation, driven by spiritual power. , so it is called Lingxiu.”

Chi Zhongying was amazed in a low voice.

"You don't have spiritual power, so this embroiderer just looks good in your hands. Most vestments require the blessing of spiritual embroidery techniques. You may not be able to learn that deeply, but it is definitely enough for mortals to embroider."

With that said, Bai Yan threw the sachet to Chi Zhongying, who couldn't wait to open it to have a look. The stitches in the sachet made of rags were not messed up, and the thread that outlined the formation was collected together with the extra fabric at the seams.

Indeed, even if there is no formation, this can be regarded as a sachet with exquisite craftsmanship.

You must know that the rags in Bai Yan's hands are not ordinary fabrics, if some patterns are embroidered on them, this sachet should be expensive.

"Please enlighten me." Chi Zhongying bowed to her from afar.

Bai Yan nodded and smiled.

From this day on, Chi Zhongying began to learn embroidery from Bai Yan.

The "knowledge of using needles" in Baiyan's mouth is indeed not what ordinary people think of using needles. He has learned no less than [-] methods of inserting needles, and the needles used in sewing and the materials to be stitched are also very different.

Even though he taught less on the first day, Chi Zhongying's fingers were painfully worn, and blisters often appeared afterward.And there are countless things like this.

How to use needles to sew warp and weft weave cloth, how to sew spider web weave cloth... how to deal with "thread balls" and how to use needles, how to use needles for "dry grass" and "green grass"...even——

"Clang!"

On the 11th day when she was learning embroidery, Bai Yan threw a pile of metal on the table.

"Today we will learn how to apply needles to soft money."

Chi Zhongying hurriedly took notes.Bai Yan usually teaches five or six embroidery methods a day, but today he only teaches one. The difficulty of this embroidery method can be imagined.

Soft gold refers to metals with relatively low hardness and high toughness. Similar concepts include weak gold, brittle gold, and hard gold.

Chi Zhongying became dizzy when he heard that, and sewed with a special needle as long as the palm of his hand. After a whole day, his hands were bloody.

Fortunately, Bai Yan has always cared about her. He applied ointment to her every day after class was suspended, and tore off the dry skin every few seconds without leaving even a red mark on her hands.

Most of what she sewed out were prototypes, which were infused with spiritual power from white salt, and if they could be driven, it proved that the magic circle was formed.Chi Zhongying learned quickly. Although it was far behind Baiyan, the finished product was comparable to the "masterpieces" of those juniors and sisters who taught Lingxiu in Suzhuang back then.

If Bai Yan needs to do something later, the semi-finished parts she sewed can be used directly - that's what Bai Yan said to Chi Zhongying.

The fact is the same, but what Baiyan didn't say is that she changed the speed of Chi Zhongying's thinking and action.

It has been a year since Chi Zhongying actually spent time on Lingxiu.

Chi Zhongying just worked as an apprentice every day.With the advancement of skills, her hands will no longer be pricked by needles, and the needlework materials are subject to her hands.What those hands are in the morning, they are still the same at night.

"Today's task is it."

On the sixth day of No.20 Xueling Embroidery, Bai Yan threw her a branch of peach blossom and asked her to sew the shape of this flower.

These days, she has learned a lot of weird stitches. Looking at the peach blossoms, she should not be able to embroider, but many methods have surfaced in her mind.

Chi Zhongying looked at Bai Yan, she still had that indifferent look, seeing her hesitant eyes, she nodded affirmatively.

So Chi Zhongying picked up the embroidery cloth decisively, stretched the cloth, split the silk and sewed the needles.

She stitches without hesitation, every stitch and every thread is smooth and dense, occasionally interspersed with colored threads, adding reddish flower tips and green leaves to the tender pink.

The embroidery method is not like the common images in the world, and the embroidered patterns are indistinguishable from the flowers and branches in front of them-especially superior.

Bai Yan looked at her embroidery, kept silent, and put a spirit beast on the table.The spirit beast arched back and forth uneasily, and the next moment its neck was cut open by a sword energy.

If Chi Zhongying saw it a month ago, she might have yelled "Wow!"

Although Chi Zhongying felt that it was a pity that such a cute little beast died, she was not frightened.She continued to finish the peach blossom embroidery on her hand, and glanced at the spirit beast from time to time.

... She just wanted to say: Can I eat it?

Chi Zhongying was a little gluttonous.Although this scene is a bit bloody, isn't any piece of meat in the supermarket bloody shipped from the slaughterhouse?

Perhaps some religious believers are very pious and disciplined when slaughtering and eating, but Baiyan and Chi Zhongying are obviously not like this.

It's a pity that the spirit beast that Bai Yan took out was naturally inedible.

After Chi Zhongying finished embroidering peach blossoms, the little beast's body also dissipated.

"It's an illusion!" Chi Zhongying said in surprise.

Bai Yan nodded, "What else? Low-level spirit beasts can't survive on Mingshan. I'm like someone who can keep pets like cotton stone beasts?"

Cosmite beasts have no merits other than good looks. They are not smart, not tasty, and have poor attack power... They are the bottom species of the food chain.Only a few people find it cute and raise one for enjoyment.

Chi Zhongying thought about it, and it really happened.She felt that Baiyan had a strong sense of disobedience in everything she raised.

Bai Yan said leisurely: "Now, you come to embroider the cotton stone beast just now."

Chi Zhongying suddenly felt struck by lightning.

She didn't pay much attention to the little beast at all!

She closed her eyes and meditated, this time it took her a while to start sewing.After the stitching, it was still the style of a master with ease, and after a while, a vivid spirit beast jumped happily on the fabric.

Not what it looks like after death.

Even if she remembered that appearance better, Chi Zhongying was unwilling to describe death.

Baiyan nodded approvingly.

"Bai Lianhua, your embroidery is already very good."

"Thank you sister for the compliment!" Chi Zhongying smiled happily.

"Embroidery has been completed, you can go down the mountain. Before going down the mountain, I want to ask you, do you still want to embark on the road of cultivation?"

The expression on Chi Zhongying's face suddenly went blank.

She reacted, and responded decisively and loudly: "I want to!"

Cultivating immortals can gain the right to speak among those ascetics who have polluted people and have a good reputation, and can have the power to help Baiyan; cultivating immortals can make her understand the law of space, and maybe one day she may be able to go home...

Chi Zhongying had already figured it out, she must ascend to become the top cultivator in the world!

Baiyan shook her head dotingly, "You."

She touched Chi Zhongying's head, and the soft long hair in her hand was warm with an unfamiliar temperature.

"I set up these two months of penance to test you, who would have thought that you didn't complain once, and survived all of them.

"This way of cultivating the mind is what I learned before I became a teacher, and it can be regarded as part of the inheritance. From today on, you are my big disciple."

After speaking, she withdrew her hand.

Chi Zhongying was so excited that she couldn't restrain herself, she bowed and said joyfully, "Disciple pays homage to Master!"

Bai Yan looked at her, smiled, and helped her up, "There's no need to be polite, just treat this as your home."

--------------------

The author has something to say:

It was originally set that Chi Zhongying said her real name when she was apprenticed to a teacher, but she didn't want drama, strong conflict and funny...

Although life itself is very dramatic, it is a pity that Chi Zhongying is the daughter of a rich family, so she will not get carried away and reveal her identity.
