The small bluestone courtyard is one hundred feet south, against the back mountain of Xuantian Temple.

There are a few cedars and a lot of deciduous forests. Snowflakes have covered the ground layer by layer, leaving only a blanket of white.

From time to time there are small animals jumping in the deciduous forest, trying to find food in the wind and snow.

Nangong Ruyu emerged from the woods, staring at three or two snow chickens, with her back to the direction of the bluestone courtyard, her ears pricked up warily, and she looked up.

In front of her, there was a small ridge that was not high. Because of the snow, it seemed a little higher than before. She tried to jump over it, and then went to catch the snow bird jumping around in the snow for food.

chicken.

Nangong Ruyu glanced at the small ridge in front of her, frowned slightly, and thought about how to jump over it without disturbing the snow chickens.

The wind and snow are not heavy today, and there are scattered snowflakes floating in the sky, but if you want to jump up, you must be careful.

Snowflakes were flying in the sky, and gusts of north wind blew towards her neck. Her feet were stuck in the snow. The snowflakes melted and the edges of her shoes became a little wet, making her little feet a little cold.

At the moment, she couldn't take off her shoes, so she had to endure the cold breath and regulate the little energy in her body.

After being prepared, he held the wooden sword in his right hand and inserted it into the snow. With a slight exertion, his whole body was suspended in the air and he jumped up lightly.

In just a moment, she had already jumped over the small hurdle in front of her. The north wind continued to blow into her and her body, and a few snowflakes fell into her neck, making her feel very uncomfortable.

"Master was probably not as powerful as me back then, but Sister Wutong is much more powerful than Yu'er."

Staring at the few snowcocks in front of me that day, I always felt that my master had too high demands on me. He was so young in front of me, but he actually had to hunt alone.

"I wonder if dad and grandpa know about it, will they praise Yu'er for being so awesome, or will they scold the master for being too cruel?"

While staring at the prey ahead, he whispered softly in his heart.

The cold wind carries moisture, so it's uncomfortable to expose your little face outside.

As she was about to approach the woods in front of her, Nangong Ruyu felt a little relaxed and was thinking about things about her father and grandfather, so she wandered for a moment, slipped under her feet, and fell down in the snow.

It seemed dangerous, but she was not too panicked. She did not reach out to pat the snowflakes on her face, but continued to keep a close eye on the snow chickens in front of her who were frozen in a daze by the wind and snow.

A snow chicken turned back and looked at her blankly.

Nangong Ruyu was also shocked. She was already very careful, why did this shunky guy still find her?

"I'm not attentive enough and I'll let them run away again today."

She muttered in her heart that the master could obviously help her, but he insisted on her completing it alone, saying that this was to train her survival ability.

She didn't understand that if she was with Xiaohua and her master every day, she was still training some kind of survival ability?

Is it because I don’t have enough money to spend, or the master has spent all his money?

She felt that when she returned to the Nangong family after spring, she would need her grandfather to give her master more gold coins. She could not always force her master to hunt in the snow.

It's so uncomfortable.

The snow chicken in front ignored her and turned to look for food in the woods.

After lying in the snow to adjust for a while, she stood up. For her, what happened today and being able to get so close to the snow chicken was already a miracle.

She decided to catch one alive and take it back.

"The little rabbit is so pitiful. Let's catch a snow chicken and play with it."

Approach quietly, and then approach again.

Seeing that she was not far away from the snow chicken, she estimated in her mind that she could pounce on the snow chicken with just one leap.

Her face had narrowed with a smile, and there was a hint of a smile at the corner of her mouth.

This time the master will not laugh at me anymore. Yu'er finally caught a snow chicken.

After making up her mind, she quietly circulated the energy in her body, placed the wooden sword on the ground, exerted strength with her hands and feet, and then suddenly flew out of the snow...

"Cuckoo!"

Several snow chickens flew up in fright, and she cleverly jumped into the air and fell into the snow.

"Whoosh whoosh!"

Three arrow sounds passed by her ears, and Li Ye's voice came from far away.

"Yu'er, bring those three snow chickens back and roast them for you tonight!"

"Master, you and these snow chickens are bullying Yu'er again!"

Nangong Ruyu lay down in the snow and refused to get up for a long time, holding her throat and yelling.

Li Ye said from a distance: "Do you think you can catch that snow chicken with one pounce? You go back and ask Sister Wutong."

"Yes, as long as you help Yu'er, master."

Nangong Ruyu stubbornly climbed up from the snow, patted the snow stains on his body, turned to look at Li Ye, who was dozens of feet away, and shouted loudly.

This is a protest and a way to vent your inner dissatisfaction.

After roaring a few times, I felt that I wasn't that cold anymore, so I staggered towards the snow chicken in front of me.

Although I wasn't very happy, my little heart couldn't help but feel happy when I thought about roasting snow chicken in the evening.

"Master is just a bad guy. He hasn't helped Yu'er these past few days, so he shot down these bad guys today." Nangong Ruyu muttered while stepping on the deep snow.

His expression was the same as that of Mu Mu back then, but now Li Ye was too far away to hear him.

...

Holding a wooden sword in one hand and dragging three arrow-hit snow chickens with the other, Nangong Taiyu seemed to be crawling in the snow. It took a quarter of an hour before he came to Li Ye.

"I made progress today, do you want to continue tomorrow?"

Li Ye looked at her with a gentle face, stretched out his hands to pick her up, and picked up the three snow chickens on the ground with one hand. The master and the apprentice walked towards the bluestone courtyard.

"Master, why don't you help Yu'er?"

"Yu'er, why do you want to help Yu'er, master?"

"Isn't Yu'er your precious disciple, master?"

"Is it because Yu'er is the master's disciple that those snow chickens will just lie there waiting for you to catch them?"

"Well, it doesn't seem possible."

"So, in the future, you have to learn to solve things by yourself, and you can't always rely on the master."

"Can I ask Sister Xiaohua to help Yu'er?"

"no!"

While talking, the master and apprentice returned to the small courtyard.

Looking at Nangong Ruyu who was covered in snow stains, Xiaohua ran over and took her to take a shower.

Nangong Ruyu said with a smile: "Sister Xiaohua, it's snowing, do you still need to take a shower?"

Xiaohua pinched her little face gently and said with a smile: "Smell it yourself, it stinks to death."

Shaking his head, Li Ye walked into the living room.

...

"How old is she? She's less than six years old, and you're going to let her go alone like this?" Even Jiang Ruoyu couldn't bear it.

It is really strange to say that Jiang Ruoyu did not like children very much in the past, otherwise she would not have chosen to become a monk when Wutong was still very young.

She was thinking that it might be because she lacked care for her female protagonists, so when she looked at Nangong Ruyu's cute appearance in front of her, she would inadvertently show a caring look.

Li Ye said with a smile: "It's a small matter. I'm about the same age as her, and I also went up to Tianshan Mountain with my husband."

Obviously he felt that the requirements for Nangong Ruyu were not strict enough.

After all, this little girl's body is much stronger than when she was little. She is the real little monster in the Five Realms.

This is a secret that only he and Nangong Xuanyuan know at the moment.

"Even if you want to train her, you can let her go with Wutong?" Tang Qiuyu looked at the two of them and laughed.

Li Ye looked at her and said, "What's the difference between her following the princess and following me?"

He meant that he wanted to train Nangong Ruyu to face danger independently. He would not be her nanny for the rest of her life. Even if she was taken to the Shura Realm by the woman in white one day, she would still have to face danger.

Li Ye thought for a moment, looked at the two of them and said with a smile, "Isn't this idle? The snow is thick, so she can't fall."

After a long time, Xia Wutong, who was sitting aside, looked at Li Ye and said lightly: "Yu'er is much younger than I was back then. Junior brother, please don't be too cruel."

"Why don't you let Yu'er take you to the master tomorrow to learn how to refine medicine? Anyway, one more person can teach you."

Li Ye thought for a while and decided that it might not be a bad idea to let Yu'er learn some knowledge about refining medicine.

Tang Qiuyu was stunned for a moment, then realized that this guy was thinking about that. He couldn't help but smile and said: "Of course it's no problem. Yu'er is also your master's little treasure, and he feels sorry for her."

"If you feel too distressed, you won't have the heart to teach her." Li Ye looked at her and said quietly.

Xia Wutong made a face at him, looking a little funny and said: "With Master Qingxu here, what is Yu'er afraid of?"

"I have forgotten some things after staying with you for a long time." Li Ye looked at the two of them and said, "You are both practitioners above the Nascent Soul Realm. Yu'er will probably have to wait a few days to build the foundation."

The meaning is very obvious, if you love her according to your own requirements, then she will never grow up.

Xia Wutong and Tang Qiuyu were stunned. They looked at Li Ye and didn't know how to reply.

"Let her practice with you in the snowy wilderness and learn some knowledge about medicinal herbs from her master." Jiang Ruoyu smiled sweetly, thinking about refining medicine, and let you teach her later.

...

"Master, Xiaohua said that the snow chicken needs to be marinated to be delicious. Let the master go over and help."

While they were talking, Nangong Ruyu, who had taken a shower and changed clothes, slipped in, held Li Ye's hand and shouted.

Xia Wutong raised his head, glanced at his mother, thought for a moment, and said with some embarrassment: "I'll go help Xiaohua and let the junior brother talk to his mother and master."

After Li Ye heard this, he turned around, looked at Xia Wutong and said with a smile: "This will trouble the princess. There are spices in the kitchen. You marinate them and I will bake them tonight."

Xia Wutong looked at him and smiled, thinking that my help was not in vain. In fact, I also really want to eat your roasted meat.

This is Xia Wutong's true words. I finally came to Fangcun Mountain just to get into your heart. It would be best if you can understand. If you don't understand, I will do it until you understand.

Jiang Ruoyu looked at the master and apprentice and said softly: "What are your plans? What kind of skills do you want to teach Yu'er?"

"I want to ensure that she can survive in the wild." Li Ye picked up the teapot and poured himself a cup of hot tea, and then continued: "She should learn to protect herself."

"Then what?" Tang Qiuyu asked next

"Then I designed the most basic swordsmanship training for her, just like I did before."

The two listened quietly.

"As long as she has the ability to live independently and can practice basic sword skills to the extreme, no matter what kind of skills she wants to practice in the future, it won't be a problem."

Li Ye talked about the arrangements for Nangong Ruyu very calmly, and naturally did not tell the secret of Nangong Ruyu's body.

After all, the girl in white said that as long as Yu'er reaches the golden elixir realm, she will naturally awaken to the secrets hidden in her body. I'm afraid that by then, it won't be difficult even for me to teach her more things.

He has only one mission, to protect her before she grows to the golden elixir realm, and to prevent practitioners in the five realms from discovering the secrets in her body.

Even the two women in front of me can't do it.

After experiencing countless things, now he doesn't trust anyone except his husband and Nangong Ruyu's grandfather.

Nangong Ruyu hugged him, smiled, and said, "Master is the best to Yu'er. There will be barbecue for dinner tonight."

Li Ye looked at her and chuckled: "As long as Yu'er likes it."

"Oh, looking at you two, master and disciple, reminds me of those scenes with Wutong back then." Tang Qiuyu looked at the two of them and said with a smile.
