Chapter 262 Never Grow Up
It wasn't until Liu Lang started to fidget that Chen Xiao noticed the abnormality of this preparatory disciple.
He flashed his eyes in embarrassment, but he didn't take back the palm that was tightly clasped with Xi Yunting.With a light cough, Liu Lang was startled and looked up.
Chen Xiao made his appearance amused, and said with a smile: "I haven't given you a formal introduction yet, this senior is the teacher's lover." Then he turned to look at Xi Yunting, "From now on, let Liu Lang call you directly Uncle?"
Xi Yunting has a close relationship with him, and it is true that his student is called senior.People who have no relationship with their masters directly call each other Shibo Shishu, which means they are very close.
Xi Yunting nodded in agreement.It's good to call me uncle, anyway, it's temporary, and when the two officially hold the ceremony, there will be a more suitable title.
Thinking of the master's exhortation before leaving Chongxuan, Xi Yunting turned his head and glanced at Chen Xiao. Now is not a good time to mention this matter, and he has to wait until Xiaodi's arm is healed.
Xi Yunting thought for a while and said, "There is no hesitation, we should leave as soon as possible to find Jinghui, and remind him not to underestimate the enemy."
Chen Xiao also said: "That's right, Patriarch Huaiyin's strength is too unconventional, if you don't take precautions in advance, you will suffer a lot."
Liu Lang also agreed, but he was in a dilemma.
"Teacher, I lost my previous horse, and I can't think of a more suitable mount for the time being. If the three of us go after Master Jinghui together, I'm afraid the speed..."
Chen Xiao was able to get here so quickly, he also knew that it was this Uncle Xi who brought him here.But if you add him, you can only go underground, just like Jing Hui did back then.
Liu Lang rationally knew that he had to find Jing Hui as soon as possible, but in his heart he was unwilling to separate from Chen Xiaobing again.The current environment is not good for Liu Lang, so if he stays here alone, no one is allowed to do anything impulsive for the sake of gambling or the reward offered by the ancestor Huaiyin.
Chen Xiao said: "You don't have to worry too much about the speed, just riding forward is enough. The speed of the ancestors of Huaiyin is very slow. If we can start today, we will not be too far away from them."
However, Xi Yunting shook his head and said: "Riding a horse is still not safe after all, there are too many accidental factors. I'll go out and think of a way, brother Xiao, wait for me here."
Chen Xiao didn't know what Xi Yunting could do, but she nodded her head trustingly.Liu Lang didn't dare to come over to care about Chen Xiao's broken arm until Xi Yunting left the courtyard. He was so shocked to learn that the teacher and Yuan Yingqi, who was in charge of the Chongxuan Sect, were partners. He forgot to ask.
Chen Xiao talked about the details of the injury and how to deal with it. Liu Lang saw that it was getting late, so he went out and called for lunch.
They didn't know when Xi Yunting would come back, so the two didn't wait and ate their meals directly.While eating, Liu Lang suddenly sighed: "This trip, I lost my horse, and Xiao Ba's whereabouts are also unknown. It's a pity that the teacher didn't raise him enough."
Chen Xiao was stunned, and said, "Xiao Ba was directly adopted by me as a soul beast. Although it was a bit dangerous this time, it was fine." Then, he put down his chopsticks, "I asked you to remind me, it's been more than two days , Xiao Ba has been sleeping all the time, and it happens that he is fine at the moment, let him let it out. When I hurry up, it is convenient for him to stay directly in the sea of my consciousness."
As soon as Chen Ling raised his hand, a lamb appeared on the ground.Xiao Ba was still a little dazed when he came out, and stood there for a while before he came back to his senses.As soon as it saw Chen Ling, it barked reflexively, and ran over on its short legs.
Chen Xiao stroked it with a smile, and said softly: "This time when I met Patriarch Huaiyin, Xiao Ba was really brave. To reward you, how about eating a piece of milk cake-flavored ration this time?"
Xiao Ba didn't know if he understood Chen Xiao's words, but the little short tail on his buttocks was wagging happily.
Liu Lang was on the side, already dumbfounded.He was surprised and said: "The teacher actually accepted Xiao Ba as a soul beast?!"
Chen Ling didn't notice his stunned look, because Xiao Ba kept spinning around under the table, so he had no choice but to hold Xiao Ba in his arms with one hand, so that his head was exposed on the table.
Xiao Ba poked his head around the food on the table, and found that there was nothing he liked, so he retracted his neck in disinterest.
Seeing that Xiao Ba was quite lively, Chen Xiao raised his head in peace of mind, and prepared to get Xiao Ba something to eat.
Liu Lang said solemnly at this time: "Teacher, there is one thing that you may not be very clear about. When contracting a soul beast, it must be an adult body. If it is a juvenile soul beast, it will never grow up."
Chen Xiao really didn't know about this, he blinked, and then said: "Even if I get to a safe environment in the future, I can cancel Xiaoba's contract and just let him go?"
Liu Lang shook his head with a wry smile: "No way. If the juvenile soul beasts can still develop normally after being released, some beast masters have already captured the juveniles and raised them for sale by this method."
Chen Ling frowned, feeling the weight of Xiao Ba's arm holding it.
In desperation at that time, he had only this way to keep Xiao Ba, but he didn't expect it would have such a big impact on Xiao Ba.
Always in the infancy period, Xiaoba cannot grow up, and will never have the day to live independently.
Its body won't grow any longer, it can't run fast or jump high, and it even loses the chance to grow horns to protect itself.
Chen Ling sighed silently, and Xiao Ba raised his head and looked at him in puzzlement, as if sensing that he was in a bad mood, he lowered his head and pushed his little head into Chen Ling's palm.
The small horn with only one bulge ran across the palm, itching.Chen Ling lowered her head and rubbed Xiaoba's hairy head with her cheek, and finally raised her head and said, "It doesn't matter if he grows up or not, I will raise Xiaoba for the rest of my life."
Liu Lang saw that Chen Xiao treated Xiao Ba as if he loved a child, so he didn't say much about the result.It's just an ordinary little wild sheep, and it doesn't take much mental power at all.Since the teacher likes it so much, he should keep it as a pet.
At this moment, Liu Lang could never have imagined what an amazing existence this little guy in front of him would become.
After drinking a pot of tea in the afternoon, Chen Ling estimated the time and felt that it was about time for Xi Yunting to come back, so he sent Xiao Ba back to the sea of consciousness.
Here Xiao Ba is in a state of deep sleep, he will not feel thirsty or hungry, and time is basically in a state of stillness.This allowed Chen Xiao to save a lot of time in taking care of it, and it could also save the little amount of training rations left.
After a while, Xi Yunting came back, bringing back a huge flying bird.
"Chi Yunpeng!" Liu Lang's eyes lit up when he saw this huge flying bird, and he couldn't help but look closer.
Chen Ling also looked at this big bird curiously. It was bigger than a golden jade carving. It was covered in maroon, its beak was shiny black, and its big round eyes were beautiful golden.
"Hey——" Seeing two strangers approaching, Chi Yunpeng unnervedly spread out his huge wings and flapped them.
Its wings are as wide as the entire yard, very thick and powerful, and when it flaps, it will bring up a gust of air, rolling up the dust on the ground and flying around.
"What a beautiful big bird, where did it come from?" Chen Xiao asked.
"I borrowed it from the Nascent Soul Spiritualist who lives nearby." Xi Yunting said lightly, "This is a soul beast that can understand simple commands. After arriving at the destination, it will return by itself."
Chen Xiao said pleasantly: "It's very convenient. With Chi Yunpeng instead, it will save a lot of trouble."
Chen Ling approached Xi Yunting with a smile, the other party subconsciously stretched out his hand, and gently put it on his waist.Chen Xiao said: "Brother, you have worked hard. It is not easy to find this bird for transportation, isn't it?"
Xi Yunting pursed his lips slightly, but did not speak.
He searched for a few people, and only then asked the practitioner who raised large birds and soul beasts nearby.Spiritual cultivators generally don't buy into the accounts of practitioners in the heavenly realm. Xi Yunting had a hard time negotiating, and finally revealed his identity as the Chongxuan Administration Academy before he successfully loaned out the Chi Yunpeng.
"When are we leaving?" Chen Xiao asked.
"Anytime." Xi Yunting said.
Chen Xiao turned to look at Liu Lang, who immediately said, "I don't have anything to clean up here, I can leave now."
Chen Xiao and Liu Lang sat together on Chi Yunpeng, Xi Yunting slowed down his flying speed, and accompanied them not far away.
When the soul beast is outside, it also needs to drink water, eat and rest.Chen Xiao and the others drove in the daytime, rested at night, and drove all the way in the direction of Luo Chen.
It's strange to say that along the way, they never met evil cultivators again, maybe they all chased after Jing Hui who still had the blood pollution spell on her body.
The Shenzhou catalog is very big, and it took more than a month to fly in the sky before Chen Xiao and the others arrived near Luo Chen.
This is because Taizhen and Luo Chen belong to the same extreme domain, and they will appear within a range after entering the Shenzhou catalog.If it is another Great Heaven Realm, the road will be even more distant.
As soon as he got close to Luo Chen's gathering point, Chen Ling could feel an unusual atmosphere, and there was a vague evil spirit here.It doesn't refer to the evil spirit caused by the Jedi, nor the evil spirit caused by evil methods, but a sense of chilling.
"Who is it?" A person suddenly jumped up from below, floated into the air and asked.
When Chen Ling saw the cassock that the man was wearing, he knew it was a Buddhist cultivator, but he didn't know if it was from the Golden Zen sect.
Chen Xiaolang said in a loud voice: "I, Chen Xiao and the two fellow Taoists, may I ask this Master, is Master Jing Hui here?"
Hearing this, the solemn expression on his face relaxed, and he said with a smile: "It turns out that Fellow Daoist Chen is here. Brother Jing Hui has missed you several times. If I know you are here, I will be very happy."
As he said that, he said to Xi Yunting again: "I think this is the Immortal Master Xi Yunting of the Chongxuan Sect? Please follow me, three of you, and I will take you to see Jing Hui."
The three of them followed the Buddhist cultivator for a further distance before they came to a building complex on the edge of a bamboo forest where Luo Chen's gathering point could be seen.
The building in front of me is newly built, and the materials are all ready-made. The walls and foundations are all made of bamboo, and the top of the house is all paved with thatch.
To be honest, Chen Xiao has been in this world for so long, and the only thing he has seen that can compare to the humble houses in front of him is the mud farmyard of the Chen family in Fancun.
However, although the materials are crude, the people who benefit from the hands-on construction are practitioners.This piece of bamboo house is very neatly built, with a simple and natural charm.
