Gu Qingxi only knew that the child's name was Qu Feixuan. Qu Feixuan herself didn't remember who her parents were or where she came from. The only thing she remembered was her name. In fact, she was seven years old, but because of long-term wandering and never having enough to eat,
Due to malnutrition, he looks like he is four or five years old.
Gu Qingxi checked Qu Feixuan's spiritual root, and it turned out to be a mutated thunder spiritual root. Such talent made Gu Qingxi very happy. However, Gu Qingxi did not immediately propose to accept a disciple.
She has always been very cautious and strict in accepting disciples. Accepting a disciple not only depends on a person's talent, but also their character.
Although Qu Feixuan is still young, Gu Qingxi has always believed that one part of a person's character is innate and the other part is shaped by nurture. Some people are born bad and will not change no matter how nurture shapes education. So this
She would definitely exclude people of this race.
This is why Gu Qingxi is very cautious in accepting disciples.
Gu Qingxi took Qu Feixuan and settled down in the nearest town. She booked a room in the best inn in the town, and then stayed with Qu Feixuan.
After Qu Feixuan was washed, she put on a beautiful little skirt and combed her hair in pigtails, and she turned into a cute little girl with fair skin. She was just too thin and needed to be replenished.
During this time, she taught Qu Feixuan how to read and how to behave, and she fed her small meals frequently, vowing to raise the child to be white and plump.
On this day, Gu Qingxi tied Qu Feixuan's hair into two buns.
Qu Feixuan curiously touched the two round buns on her head. They were two small braids a few days ago, but they seemed different today.
"Don't pinch it. It will be very troublesome if you pinch it apart and then prick it." Gu Qingxi warned with a smile.
"Well, I won't pinch it." After hearing this, Qu Feixuan immediately put her hand down. She was afraid that she might accidentally make Gu Qingxi unhappy.
Qu Feixuan is very well-behaved and very dependent on Gu Qingxi.
No
No matter where Gu Qingxi goes, she follows him.
There were two beds in this room. Every night, after Gu Qingxi gave Qu Feixuan a bath and tucked her into bed, Qu Feixuan behaved obediently and covered her with the quilt carefully to sleep.
But when Gu Qingxi fell asleep, she secretly climbed out of her bed and ran to Gu Qingxi's bed. Afraid of waking up Gu Qingxi, she curled up at the foot of the bed and carefully got into bed.
Then he fell asleep contentedly.
In fact, Gu Qingxi noticed it when Qu Feixuan got up, but she didn't say anything. She wanted to see what the child was going to do. In the end, he got under her quilt.
After a few days of this, Gu Qingxi lost his temper. After giving Qu Feixuan a bath at night, he tucked her into his bed. Then he saw Qu Feixuan's beautiful big eyes looking at her.
Forget it, this child doesn't feel safe, let's sleep with him like this for now. Gu Qingxi thought in compromise.
After Gu Qingxi confirmed Qu Feixuan's character, Gu Qingxi brought up the matter of accepting a disciple.
When Qu Feixuan heard Gu Qingxi's words, she was neither surprised nor asked. Instead, she knelt down directly and started kowtowing loudly: "Master is on top. I will bow to you as a disciple."
Gu Qingxi felt pain when she heard the sound of Qu Feixuan's forehead hitting the ground, and quickly pulled her up. Why is this child so honest? I'm afraid she doesn't even know what master means, right?
"Do you know what master means?" Gu Qingxi asked while gently rubbing Qu Feixuan's forehead, which was red from kowtow.
Qu Feixuan nodded, "I know, once you become a master, you will always be a father. I can be with the master forever." She once eavesdropped on the storytellers outside the teahouse talking about the master's apprenticeship, so she followed the example.
Of course the second sentence is about her
She added it out of her own selfishness. She didn't want to be separated from the fairy, not even to die.
So after hearing Gu Qingxi's words, she had no time to be happy. Instead, she wanted to firmly grasp the light first. She had an intuition in her heart that as long as she became a disciple, her wish would come true.
Gu Qingxi smiled and said, "Yes, if you become my apprentice, it will last a lifetime. I will teach you everything I know."
Qu Feixuan didn't have a clear concept of the word "master" at this time. She only knew that she would no longer have to worry about being left behind, and that she would no longer have to struggle to survive alone.
She hugged Gu Qingxi's legs and didn't let go, smiling brightly. All the hardships she had endured before felt worth it at this moment.
After Gu Qingxi accepted Qu Feixuan as his apprentice, he left the inn, took Qu Feixuan out of the city gate, then hugged her and flew with his sword.
Qu Feixuan's eyes widened, and she kept screaming in her heart that Master is indeed a god. Master can fly! Master is a god who came to save her!
Gu Qingxi took Qu Feixuan and flew to the west. Before flying far, she stopped and slowly descended.
Qu Feixuan saw the village below clearly and nervously grasped the hem of Gu Qingxi's clothes.
It was the people from this village who caught her and wanted to throw her into the river as a sacrifice.
"Master, the people here are all bad people." Qu Feixuan's body trembled a little, and her face turned pale. Apparently she remembered the bad memories after she was caught.
Gu Qingxi touched Qu Feixuan's head and comforted her softly, "Don't be afraid, Master is here."
Gu Qingxi's words instantly calmed Qu Feixuan's heart.
Yes, with Master here, no one can hurt her! Master is a god! He can kill those bad guys.
Gu Qingxi flew around the village with her sword,
After attracting the attention of the villagers, it landed amidst the exclamations of the villagers.
"Fairy!"
"Meet the fairy!"
Many villagers ran towards the village. When they saw Gu Qingxi, they knelt down and worshiped her.
Qu Feixuan frowned at these people and nervously grabbed the hem of Gu Qingxi's clothes. Then she found that none of the villagers recognized her. Even after kneeling down to worship the master, they also knelt down to worship her, and even called to meet the little fairy.
.
Qu Feixuan's eyes widened suddenly. Something in her world seemed to have suddenly changed.
Gu Qingxi did not ask the villagers to get up, but asked calmly, "I heard that your village throws a child into the river as a sacrifice every five years to pray for good weather?"
The villagers kneeling on the ground quietly looked at each other, and then the leader of the villagers carefully answered Gu Qingxi's words, "Hui Xianzi, there is no such thing. How could we do such a cruel thing?"
Of course, Gu Qingxi saw clearly the dispute between their eyebrows and knew that the other party was not telling the truth to her.
"Because you don't want to sacrifice your own children, you go out to steal and rob other people's children." Gu Qingxi's voice sounded like ice. Naturally, she came here to do some research. She met Qu Feixuan while passing by.
, rescued Qu Feixuan, and after learning about the sacrifice, she has been investigating the affairs of this village in the past few days.
After finding out what happened in the village, Gu Qingxi felt disgusted. Sometimes human nature can be so ugly and terrifying.
The people in this village are ignorant and backward, indolent, stupid and vicious. They never work hard, but they expect cruel sacrifices to bring them rich harvests. Because they don’t want to send their children to sacrifice, they find ways to steal
They rob children from other places. Beggars and street children are their targets.
Before dealing with these people, what she wanted to know most was who was responsible for this cruel sacrifice.
