I got rich from my apprentices

=====================

Bai Qingxiao stood at the entrance of the cave, hesitating.

His mind seemed to dissolve into two little people.

One said that a qualified master can't spy on his apprentice's cave, and he has grown up so much, what if he has his own secret?

One said, I'll just take a look and make sure I don't move the contents inside. I'm just curious about what Pei Geng will hide inside.

In the end, Bai Qingxiao turned around and wanted to leave.

After walking two steps, my heart was tickled and numb by the secret.He took a deep breath, still not overwhelmed by curiosity, swiped his head, walked in quickly, and said silently, "I'll just take a look, just take a look, I promise not to move!"

As soon as he stepped into the cave, the flames on the walls on both sides flickered. With the special color of the fire, Bai Qingxiao could recognize at a glance whose handwriting it was, and the whole cave was illuminated as bright as day.

What surprised him even more was the things that were piled up in the cave.

All kinds of well-preserved spiritual plants, spiritual treasures, and animal pills of various spiritual beasts filled the entire cave.At a glance, there is no end in sight.

Bai Qingxiao walked forward along the path specially reserved for people to walk in the middle, raised his head and looked while walking, and sighed, "Pei Geng's net worth is really... enough for an entire small sect."

"He's hoarding so much, it's not like he wants to start a school by himself?"

"Then what have I become?" Bai Qingxiao laughed, walking backwards, looking around, "Master of the founder of the mountain?" He was amused by his assumption.

After walking for about half a stick of incense, I saw another exit.

As soon as Bai Qingxiao stepped out of the cave, there was a stench, and he immediately raised his sleeve to cover his nose, staring blankly at the huge corpse of a spirit beast in front of him.Some have been burnt and thrown aside casually.

A ball of flames passed by him, landed on the corpse, and burned it to pieces.

A pair of hands moved forward from behind, clasping his waist tightly, "Shizun came here, no wonder I couldn't find it." Pei Geng lazily raised his eyes and looked at some untreated spirit beasts, "It was used to practice cooking skills earlier." Yes, I forgot to deal with it and insulted the eyes of the master."

Bai Qingxiao broke away his hand in embarrassment, and took two steps back.

"Master?" Pei Geng raised his eyebrows slightly, as if he was simply puzzled, "What's wrong?"

Can you change your habit of being respectful without saying anything!Bai Qingxiao's eyes wandered, he cleared his throat, and changed the subject, "There are things in the cave, are you planning to start a school?"

"No." Pei Geng said calmly, "Master must not have listened to my voice transmission. I have prepared some gifts for Master after all these years."

"Is that 'a little bit' for you?" Bai Qingxiao endured and endured, but couldn't hold back, "This is too exaggerated. To be honest, how many sects did you rob to get it back?"

"There is no robbery, I found it during my own experience." Pei Geng was puzzled, "When I passed by, I just took it, Master, don't you like it?"

take it with you...

Bai Qingxiao was anxious and didn't know what to say.

He turned around a few times, scratched the wall twice, turned his head and straightened his clothes, and coughed, "Then what, I don't need it, you can keep it for later and marry a wife as a dowry. Although the cultivation world doesn't offer bride price, but now If you come from a famous family, you must bring some 'heart' when you go to the elders."

Pei Geng nodded, "Indeed, it's not easy to marry someone from a famous family."

Especially as he heard outside, the peak of the line of medical practitioners is the only one in Shennong Valley.

"Ah, yes!" Bai Qingxiao felt his heart itch even more, he was a little uncomfortable hearing it, but he didn't know what to say.He just scratched the side of his face with his fingers, and said vaguely, "Well...you will set a restriction at the door in the future, and the teacher will not come in if he sees it."

"No. There are only Master and I in this secret realm. There is no need to set up restrictions for Master." Pei Geng stretched his arms, "The disciple is still young, so just look for it later. This is a little bit of disciple's intention. Master does not accept it, but Where did the disciple make you unhappy?"

"No."

"Then the master just doesn't like the disciple, and has become estranged from the disciple." Pei Geng lowered his brows, feeling very disappointed, "The disciple is traveling abroad, and it is said that the direct disciple will prepare something for his master, and the master will only accept the disciple he likes. A gift from him. Sure enough, we haven’t seen each other for a long time..."

Bai Qingxiao couldn't hear his words, "Accept, can I accept it?!"

"That's good." Pei Geng smiled, seemingly very satisfied.

Bai Qingxiao said awkwardly, "It's agreed in advance, as a teacher, I just save it for you. If you have a sweetheart in the future, you can talk about it at any time if you need it."

Pei Geng just smiled and said nothing.

When the two left the cave, Bai Qingxiao walked in front, walking fast, as if being chased by something.

Pei Geng followed behind him, not leaving a single step, "Master is still in good health, you should walk slowly, so as not to fall."

Bai Qingxiao didn't listen, he didn't stop at the slightest speed, and even turned his head, "Master, I'm in great shape, one hits ten. If you fall, I won't..."

While talking, Bai Qingxiao tripped over the thick flower vines under his feet. Bai Qingxiao didn't expect to hit his face so quickly. Seeing the center of gravity moving forward, he was getting closer and closer to the ground.

There was a great pulling force behind him.With a blink of Bai Qingxiao's eyes, he was pulled back by Pei Geng.

Pei Geng carefully supported his forearm, looked him over carefully, saw that he was fine, sighed, and was about to say something.Seeing that Bai Qingxiao's attention had been drawn by the things in front of him, he didn't give him any attention.

The ground is fiery red in the eyes, and the fragrance of flowers is slowly.

This... Isn't this the yellow spring flower that he couldn't find? !

Bai Qingxiao was so shocked that his jaw almost dropped.He withdrew his hand, pointed at the vast sea of ​​yellow spring flowers, and asked, "What's going on? You pulled out all the yellow spring flowers?"

He had already noticed that Pei Geng might be the one who singled out several Nascent Souls and a Huashen Huo Linggen sword cultivator in the rumors, but he still found it unbelievable.

"Who are you going to pull these flowers for?" You wouldn't really fall in love with a monk after five years of going out, and then smile for the Pomeranian, would you not hesitate to anger so many monks?

Bai Qingxiao felt uncomfortable.But he just blamed it on: how could his Bai Qingxiao's disciple be a lustful person!

Pei Geng looked at Bai Qingxiao when he heard the words, and he was upright, with a calm tone, "Give it to Master, didn't Master say to go to the Demon Realm? The disciple thought that Master needed this thing, so he prepared it for Master in advance-all pulled back. "

"Master, look, this flower is actually very good. Look at it, do you feel better?"

Bai Qingxiao's breath was stuck in his throat, unable to get up or down.He felt warmed by this kindness, and also felt a little headache, Bai Qingxiao said word by word, "You don't need so many, keep two, and transplant all the others back for the teacher!"

"Master doesn't like it?" Pei Geng didn't care, "Then throw it all away, it's too much trouble to transplant it back."

Bai Qingxiao frowned, his displeasure almost formed, "Pei, Geng!"

"Okay, okay, I'll move, I'll move." Pei Geng changed his words and raised his hands in surrender.The tone was full of helplessness, which made Bai Qingxiao feel that he was the one making trouble for no reason.

"Oh," Pei Geng said regretfully, "it's red, how pretty it is, and it especially matches Master's complexion. Master really doesn't want to keep it?"

"What does my skin color have to do with it?" Bai Qingxiao was puzzled, feeling that he was getting more and more unable to keep up with his apprentice's train of thought.

"Well, when lying in the flowers, Master..."

Bai Qingxiao guessed what he said, quickly turned around and covered his mouth, feeling very headache, "Shut up!"

After so many years, not only did he not get used to Pei Geng's half-joking and half-serious bluntness, but he became more and more reluctant to listen to the other party's nonsense, and he could guess what this guy was going to say with a few words.

Pei Geng pulled his hand down, and laughed silently, "Master, you can't hear this, and you can't hear that, you are so thin-skinned."

Bai Qingxiao thought to himself, you are the only one who says I am thin-skinned, from Master to Senior Sister, to all the friends I meet, no one will say that he has a thick skin.

But except for a certain guy, no one would chase after him and say these things that deserved to be beaten.

He suddenly remembered something, took out the scripture book confiscated from Mingchi from the Jiezi space, threw it into Pei Geng's arms, and raised his eyebrows, "What's the matter with this book?!"

His words were dangerous, "You'd better explain it to me, Bai, Qi."

Pei Geng, whose pseudonym was called Po, was not embarrassed, instead he picked up the book, flipped through it, closed it, and slapped his palm to relax.

He blinked at Bai Qingxiao, pretending to be stupid, "Master, is there an update? How simple is this? Master gives the disciple an accurate reply, and the disciple will be able to write easily in the future. Don't talk about one volume, make dozens of volumes." Books are not a problem."

"There must be a bottom line for nonsense." Bai Qingxiao disagreed with his approach.

Pei Geng clattered the pages of the book, lowered his head, and said, "Master, why do you always feel that the disciple is messing around? Which of the things the disciple does is not serious? Only the master jokes are not serious. When did the disciple joke?"

"Could it be that the master thought that the disciples were just playing around?"

Bai Qingxiao was taken aback for a moment, obviously recalling something.

Maybe I don't think much, a kiss, a person, and maybe those gifts.His face was flushed with embarrassment, but he didn't know what to think, and he turned pale again.

Bai Qingxiao frowned, rubbed the base of his nose, his pale face became colder after being injured, "I'll just say it once, Master, listen carefully, Pei Geng."

Seeing that he was so serious, Pei Geng suppressed the smile on his face and stared at him intently.

Bai Qingxiao's heart had been beating like a rabbit's since he woke up, but he was pressed hard in his heart in an instant, unable to move.

In the end, the rabbit was trapped to death by him, trapped to death in a cage called master and apprentice.

Bai Qingxiao said coldly, "We are masters and apprentices now, and we can only be masters and apprentices in this life. There is no other possibility. Don't try to be a master in any way."

Pei Geng's face suddenly changed.

When he realized that Bai Qingxiao was expressing his opinion, he couldn't help getting up and holding his hand, "Master, this disciple has grown up, and his cultivation has already approached you. Now he can still protect you. What the hell is going on?" Not as you like?"

"Master?"

He was so pampered before, why should he be so resolute now.

Pei Geng begged, "Is it because Pei Geng did something wrong? At worst, I won't say such things anymore, and Pei Geng will never be disrespectful to Master again, I just ask Master..."

"...Don't be so heartless."

Heartless?

The young man's eyes were full of enthusiasm enough to burn his reason, and they rushed into his eyes recklessly.Bai Qingxiao was flustered by the hot gaze, frowned, and brushed his hand away, "You're right, it's your teacher's mistake."

Only then did he realize that he was really wrong, and it was outrageously wrong.

He used to think that Pei Geng was a little guy who didn't understand anything, so naturally he wouldn't take seriously what the other party said, and even avoided it on purpose.Thinking that when time passed, Pei Geng probably wouldn't even remember what stupid things he said when he grew up.

But when he realized that he gave his apprentice wrong thoughts because of this, and when he realized that Pei Geng had grown up now, he even valued the original "Tongyan" very much.

Even, because of this, he was moved by the chaotic teasing...

Bai Qingxiao has never been really saddened by anything in his life, but he is as at a loss as a child when it comes to love, and there is no one like Yuyan Xianzun to teach him what is right and what is wrong, How to do.

It would be great if emotional matters could be like a medical book, where every symptom and every step was clearly written.

Now, he can only rely on his common sense, relying on the goodwill that does not affect his reason, to estimate the best and most feasible method: that is to cut the mess with a sharp knife.

It's good for them all.

Pei Geng will always be his favorite apprentice.

It's just an apprentice.

It's just a good impression, and it will disappear sooner or later. The most important thing is to cultivate enough to resist the heavenly way and ascend to the immortal path.Isn't that what their monks ask for?What kind of family relationship is not a necessity.

Bai Qingxiao thought he had figured it out, his face became more determined, turned sideways, looked directly at Pei Geng, and said seriously, "You will always be my disciple as long as you live. In the eyes of the teacher, he is just that brat from back then."

He also felt that what he said was too harsh, but his thin lips still spat out cruel words, "Think about it seriously, who would like a brat? Stop wasting time on being a teacher, and say it one last time for the teacher." , we can only be masters and apprentices in this life."

"You and Ming Chi, in the heart of being a teacher, no matter what the weight is, the essence is the same after all."

In your heart, that kid and I are actually the same? !

Pei Geng stared at him in a daze, his heart kept falling, and the feeling of falling from nothing pulled him, and he fell to the irretrievable side.Unknown emotions rolled in the dark eyes.

"Master..." Pei Geng grabbed his sleeve and parted his lips.

"Teacher, you remember it." Bai Qingxiao tilted his head and said seriously, "Stop deceiving yourself and others. It doesn't matter what age or cultivation level. The important thing is that we can't do it."

Self-deception.

The root of Pei Geng's nose was sore, his throat moved, trying to say something, the corners of his lips tugged, the muscles on his face twitched uncontrollably, and finally he only showed a bitter smile.

It turned out to be self-deception?

"Master, why are you so heartless? Don't force me, I can't control what my disciple will do..."

Bai Qingxiao frowned, and interrupted him, "Forcing you? All along, it was obviously you who were forcing me, and it was your own delusion that hurt yourself."

All hopes are like beautiful flowers in the mirror and the moon in the water, which will be broken at the touch of a touch.Pei Geng was stunned.

"Pei Geng? Pei Geng! Why are you in a daze? Did you hear what you said clearly?" Bai Qingxiao's voice brought him back to his senses.

"Okay." Pei Geng came back to his senses, numb from the top of his head to his fingertips.He opened his mouth, his voice was so low that it was almost inaudible, he didn't know what to say for a while, his mind was empty, and he was in a daze.

"Okay, great. As you wish, Master."

"The disciple has always listened to you the most."

Only this time, and only this time, he didn't want to be an obedient apprentice anymore.No matter how self-consolation, but also 'self-deception'.No matter how close it is, it is still so close.No matter how hard he tried, Master was so heartless.

If he can't ask for it, can't he use other methods?

He didn't believe that the pampering and pampering in the past was just his wishful thinking.

I have spoiled him so much in the past, so why can't I pamper him to the end?He was born to be so... cruel.

Since the master said that he was forcing him, then don't blame him for taking it seriously and really forcing the master to make a choice.

Bai Qingxiao didn't know what he was thinking, but felt that Pei Geng's smile was worse than not smiling, it was extremely ugly.The rabbit in my heart was struggling frantically, and was pushed down again.

He felt soft in his heart, a little regretful that he said too much, but he also knew that he couldn't drag his feet on this kind of matter.Blindly indulging in the seemingly peaceful undercurrent will only harm others and oneself.It would be best for Pei Geng to understand as soon as possible.

In the past few days, under Bai Qingxiao's deliberate neglect, the two had no communication.

Bai Qingxiao meditated to restore his spiritual power, while Pei Geng transplanted most of the yellow spring flowers back according to what he said, leaving only a few for his own use.

He summoned a spirit boat, decorated the bow and stern with yellow spring flowers, tidied up the rooms in the boat, and laid out bedding and cushions.

He stood in the cabin, his pupils were pitch black, as deep as the bottom of an abyss.Just looking up, everything is scattered.He touched the lacquered mahogany beams beside the couch and smiled.

Master must like it very much.

After Pei Geng checked carefully, he went to Bai Qingxiao with a calm expression.

"Master, everything is ready. Shall we go to Demon Realm immediately?" Pei Geng asked for instructions standing in front of Bai Qingxiao.

Bai Qingxiao opened his eyes and saw Pei Geng standing tall and straight in front of him.

The young man has grown in size, and the cassock he was given in the past no longer fits him well. He got clothes from somewhere, but he is often dressed in black.

"Your cassock looks like a black crow, you don't look like a phoenix." Bai Qingxiao deliberately teased him, trying to neutralize the relationship between the two that had been stagnant for a few days.

Pei Geng was very cooperative, looked down at his clothes, and asked, "Then turn around, the disciples will choose some gorgeous ones, and also have a phoenix in front of the master?"

"It's not necessary, the teacher likes to see you wearing a disciple's uniform. Of course, if you don't like it, you can choose it yourself."

"The disciple likes it very much!"

"Yeah." Bai Qingxiao was not at ease with this intentional flattery like a forced smile, he responded, patted Pei Geng on the shoulder, got up and walked towards the spirit boat.

Bai Qingxiao rubbed his eyebrows, feeling that his dantian was still dry.

It will take some time to go to the Demon Realm, but on the spirit boat, he may be able to recover slowly.Take care of yourself, and everything will be fine.
