Yu Hanhan looked at Xiang Que who had been coming in and out of Xitang Peak in the past few days, and was really surprised. Why did he come so frequently? He neither flirted with female disciples nor went to Zuo Qing to talk about anything. He came in and out many times just to inquire about some things.
Questions about alchemy, but is he really refining alchemy?
Yu Hanhan was deeply doubtful about this. How could he become a bird in just a few days?
"Little Master Uncle, it hasn't been long now, why are you here again?" A group of female disciples looked at him with gleaming eyes.
Xiang Que said seriously: "Isn't your uncle starting a sect? I plan to recruit disciples and so on. I feel that in this Qingshan Sect, everyone can be missing, but Xitang, who knows how to make alchemy, can't be missing.
People from the peak, so I plan to come to you to make a fortune and see if there are any suitable disciples who are willing to join my sect..."
Yu Hanhan smiled sweetly and said: "Then there is no need to beg. Just say a word and my niece will be over now, right?"
"Hanhan, forget it. If I abduct you, no, but take you under my sect, your master will definitely not be willing to do it. After all, you have to sit on Xitang Peak to teach the disciples below when she is not around. You must
No, help me find someone." Xiang Que definitely won't want her, let alone Zuo Qingtong, even if he is willing, he won't accept her.
Xiang Que came to Xitang Peak to find someone, and there were only two conditions. First, she must know the knowledge of alchemy and medicinal herbs, and second, she must be stupid. In the words of the modern world, this woman must be stupid and cute.
Yu Hanhan is a smart person, with a tail attached to her, she is Sun Wukong. If he really takes her under his sect, his things about alchemy will definitely be noticed by the other party. This is not Xiang Que's intention to hide his clumsiness from the Qingshan Sect.
The main thing is that this kind of thing cannot be missed too early.
Yu Hanhan sighed and said sadly: "That's really a pity. I just don't know what kind of disciple my junior uncle wants?"
"It's human nature to be honest and don't like to talk. It's best to be... withdrawn?" Xiang Que pondered and said.
Yu Hanhan was immediately taken aback and said, "Uncle, are you recruiting disciples, or are you looking for someone to aggrieve yourself?"
Xiang Que said awkwardly: "I can't help it. I don't like to take the ordinary path. Your uncle always feels that geniuses should be independent. Is there anyone like this on Xitang Peak?"
As soon as Xiang Que finished his words, many pairs of eyes looked at the figure sitting on the stone at the edge of the lotus pond at the top of the mountain. She was a girl of about fifteen or sixteen years old, and her eyes were a little dull.
He looked dull, holding a branch in his hand and drawing circles on the ground.
He is a handsome-looking child, not too good-looking, not too ugly, and a well-behaved child.
"That's the little junior sister on Xitang Peak. She was brought back by her master when she was a baby. She took my master's last name, Zuo. This child always liked to sit on the edge of the lotus pond and look at the lotus flowers, so she called her Zuo Hetang.
…”
Xiang Que really wanted to say that your master is really talented and the name he chose is really meaningful.
Yu Hanhan sighed and said with a headache: "Hetang should be the kind of withdrawn person you said. Although we senior sisters love her very much and pity her, this child has never interacted with us. He has been with us for ten and a half months.
She didn't say a word, and most of the time, she just sat on the edge of the lotus pond and drew pictures. She sat there all day long. Sometimes people were still there in the middle of the night. At first, we would take care of her, but later on, she wouldn't care about her at all.
I don’t care, because I can’t control it at all.”
Xiang Que frowned. He knew that this was not just isolation. In modern times, it should be called autism. But one thing he had said before was right, that is, a large number of children with autism would be
It is possible to become a genius in certain aspects, which has been reported in the news from time to time.
This kind of child is basically cheating in some aspect. Xiang Que has seen it several times in the news. Some autistic patients are very sensitive to numbers, some have super memory, or have particularly good talent in painting.
All in all, it has its amazing points.
However, Xiang Que didn't care much about whether she was a genius, he only cared a little bit.
Xiang Que asked: "How is the alchemy technique? How is the knowledge about medicinal herbs?"
Yu Hanhan shook her head and said: "She has never made elixirs before, and she is the only one on Xitang Peak. However, Hetang's understanding of medicinal herbs is amazing. There are over 10,000 medicinal herbs in the medicinal herb compendium, whether they are commonly used or rare ones the year before.
She can remember it after just a few glances, and it will be a living compendium of medicinal herbs at night!"
Xiang Que licked his lips, narrowed his eyes and said, "That's him, take him away?"
Yu Hanhan frowned and said: "Although Hetang is very weird, the master loves her very much. If the master wants to take her as his disciple, it may not be a problem, but Little Hetang may need me..."
"If you can take her away, then take her down the mountain. This will save me from having to watch her get upset every day." Zuo Qing's voice suddenly drifted over from nowhere.
Nothing moved in the lotus pond.
Xiang Que immediately raised his hands and said, "Thank you, Senior Sister Zuo."
"No need to thank me, let's see if she is willing to go with you..."
Xiang Que said "Yeah", and then told Yu Hanhan that he had gone over there. He walked all the way to the stone beside the lotus pond, and the child didn't even raise his head and blink, as if there was just a handsome fly passing by.
That's all, no reaction at all.
Xiang Que lowered his head and looked at the patterns the other party drew on the ground.
There was silence between the two of them for a long time, and their eyes never met.
The Xitang disciple asked in surprise: "Sister, what are the uncle and sister looking at? Why are they so motionless and silent? Are they so connected?"
Yu Hanhan shook her head in confusion and said, "Who knows, but speaking of it... these two people are indeed weird."
After a long time, Xiang Que suddenly spoke.
"It's wrong for you to draw like this." Xiang Que abruptly grabbed the branch from the opponent's hand, and then traced it on the ground, seemingly randomly changing the lines he had drawn before on the lotus pond.
Hetang's emotionless eyes gradually glowed with energy, and he said to Xiang Que: "What do you think? So, this place is not suitable for you, come with me."
Xiang Que said, stood up, and then stretched out one of his hands. Hetang raised his head and looked at him, and slowly placed his white hand in his palm.
There was silence on Xitang Peak. Yu Hanhan swallowed and said in a dry voice: "This has never happened before..."
Yes, Hetang never lets anyone get close to her, not even Zuo Qing. She forbids anyone from touching her body and always keeps a sufficient distance from people, as if she is always with those around her.
People live in two worlds.
Xiang Que held the hand of the lotus pond, the big hand holding the small hand, more like a father holding his child.
Because the lotus pond is indeed very thin and small, just like a lotus flower that has not opened.
