Xiao Shitou woke up quickly, feeling that his buttocks had been healed and he had been treated with wound medicine. It was chilly. He turned his head and glanced at Xue Poye who was sitting on the side, and said softly, "Thank you."

Xue Poye rubbed his nose and said with a smile: "You are very ambitious, you beat yourself up like this, and you didn't even say a word."

The green lady mixed the potion and came over, fed the little stone a few sips, and said softly: "You should not move around these two days, and lie down obediently, or your butt will not get better."

Little Shitou blushed and said anxiously: "Sister, you... you looked at me... my fart... ass...!" It seemed very embarrassing.

Xue Poye laughed, and said, "Little thing, you are so shy at such an age, I really didn't expect it."

Little Shitou struggled to sit up, Lady Lv hurriedly supported her and said, "I told you, you can't move around, otherwise the wound won't heal."

Little Shitou shook his head like a sentimental little adult and said, "Little master always has orders. If I'm not here, little master will be angry." Still struggling to sit up from the bed, touching the whip wound on his buttocks , grinned, but didn't make a sound.

"You seem to like practicing kung fu?" Xue Poye thought of Xiao Shitou peeking at Princess Yi practicing kung fu in the forest, so he couldn't help asking: "Have you ever practiced?"

Xiao Shitou's eyes suddenly lit up, turned around and asked Xue Poye: "Big Brother, are you teaching Big Sister Kung Fu at the school? Are you her master?"

Seeing him, Xue Poye seemed to get excited all of a sudden, knowing that this kid must be very interested in practicing martial arts.

"It can't be said to teach Kung Fu." Xue Poye said with a smile: "It's just that the big sister likes to practice hands and feet, and she just practices with her."

Xiao Shitou called Princess Yi "big sister", it seems that she doesn't know Princess Yi.

"Then...then you teach me!" Xiao Shitou held back for a long time, and finally mustered up the courage to say: "You will be my master, and I will worship you as my teacher!"

Xue Poye shook his head and said: "My ability is very poor. There are so many masters in the world, I can't accept you." What he said was really good. Apart from archery, he really has no strength in terms of force. What can be obtained, as for the set of "Split Kong Fist", in terms of martial arts, it can even be ignored.

Unexpectedly, Xiao Shitou knelt down stubbornly, ignoring the pain in his buttocks, and kowtowed: "Master, just teach me kung fu? Xiao Shitou begs you."

Xue Poye hastily stopped him, sighed: "Little Shitou, I'm telling the truth, my ability is very poor, I'm afraid I've missed you."

Little Shitou said stubbornly: "No matter how good you are, I will worship you as my teacher." After a pause, he said softly: "As long as I learn how you interrupted the big tree just now, the little master will not bully you in the future." I'm gone, and I won't bully horses anymore."

Xue Poye said softly: "Although I don't know much, since you want to learn, I don't think I need to insist any longer. As for the title of master, it's still free. You live next door to me. If you have free time, come here, and I will teach you how to exercise your body."

Although there is no amazing ability, it is not a bad thing to let Xiaoshi practice a strong body since childhood, and I do have a set of physical training methods. If interest comes, it is not a bad idea to explain archery.

Xiao Shitou will certainly not become a master of martial arts if he follows him, but he will definitely not achieve nothing.

The point is, the child's benevolence and perseverance made Xue Poye seem to see a shadow of himself. He felt that this child was really similar to himself, and that was something in his inner bones.

Little Shitou didn't say much, endured the pain in his buttocks, knelt on the ground and kowtowed to Xue Poye three times, and respectfully said: "Master, I kowtow to you."

The little guy is very polite.

Xue Poye came here because of the similarities between Xiao Shitou and his own personality, and secondly, he had a heart of sympathy, so that the small child became a servant, and he felt emotional, so although he may not be very capable, but Still gladly accepted the poor child.

As a master, he naturally had to give out a gift. Xue Poye touched his body, first he touched the small porcelain vase containing Huadielian, and then he touched the black jade carp that Tan Ziqing gave him. Good thing to give, finally touched a cool thing, took it out and took a look, it was a green stone given to him by Xiaolingxian, engraved with landscapes, lifelike, it was an excellent gift, after thinking about it, put Passed the green stone over, and said softly: "Little Stone, since you recognize me as your master, then the master's wine will give you this thing as a souvenir."

The little stone was stunned for a moment, took the green stone, looked at it carefully, showing joy, but still handed it back and said: "Master, I have no gift for you, so I can only kowtow to you. This gift, disciple...disciple cannot accept..."

Xue Poye pretended to be displeased and said: "Why, you are disobedient just now. This is a meeting gift from your master. If you really want to recognize me as a master, you must accept it."

Ji Wu, seeing Xue Poye's love for Xiaoshi so much, the green lady also developed a good impression of this child, and she went back to the room and brought a lot of pastries, which were all royal desserts, Princess Yi specially came here to pay her respects , Xiao Shitou is a servant, naturally he has no luck to taste it, after all, he is a child, he is very happy to see the dim sum, and he eats it beyond words.

Xue Poye leaned against the window, looked at the wolf-eating little stone, and said softly: "Shitou, you are so small, why did you follow the little master, who is the little master?"

Xiao Shitou's expression darkened, he took a look at Xue Poye, and then said softly: "The young master is the grandson of the dry prince, the son of the dry prince's son." Thanks to his young age, he even figured this out.

Xue Poye frowned, looked out of the window, and said in a low voice, "Did Prince Qian come too?"

Xiao Shitou shook his head, and said with some doubts himself: "No, Lord Qian didn't come, only me and the young master came over last night. I slept deeply, and when I woke up today, I was here."

Xue Poye and Mrs. Lv ignored it, and they were a little puzzled. Why did the dry prince send his grandson to Liuheyuan alone? What is the reason?

Xue Poye naturally also knew the reason, of course it was impossible for Xiao Shitou to know the reason, he laughed and said: "The dry prince sent his grandson and brought you with him, it seems that the dry prince really likes you ah."

Xiao Shitou blinked his eyes and muttered: "Grandpa Ganwang is very kind to me, and he often teaches me to read, but the little master...!" Shut up and say nothing, blaspheming the master in private, this is also considered in the Great Chu Kingdom It's a taboo thing.

Xue Poye laughed and said: "That little fat man is a bit arrogant, but when you learn to knock down a big tree with one punch, he will not dare to bully you. By the way, are you sold by your parents to the palace as a slave? Do you know where your parents are now, let me see if I can redeem you back."

Little Shitou's eyes turned red, and he shook his head and said, "I don't know, I don't know, I've always been by my little master's side. Grandpa Ganwang said that I'm my best friend, no matter what happens, I can't leave him." .”

The green lady patted Xiao Shishi's small shoulder, and said softly: "The dry prince is planning to let you become his grandson's personal bodyguard."

A strange look flashed across Xiao Shitou's eyes, his face showed a solemnity that didn't match his age, and he said softly: "I will not have friends, and no one will treat me as a friend."

"Aren't you a loner then?" Lady Lv smiled softly, "Everyone needs a friend, at least one close friend, so that the life in this world won't be wasted."

"Lonely!" Xue Poye touched his nose and sighed, "That's not a good thing."

From this day on, there is another little stone in Xue Poye's life. During the day, he supervises the training of Princess Yi. Talk about novel stories, which have never existed in his thought world.

Xiao Shitou felt that in his master's mind, there were many things that were very, very far away from him.

The story told by the master is very strange. He said that a long time ago, there were two wars in the world. At that time, there were many countries in the world, and even on the other side of the sea, there were many beasts with yellow and red hair.

In the kingdom of yellow-haired beasts, there is a king of beasts who is warlike and evil. He leads the people confused by him to start a war against the whole world. They have weapons that Xiaoshi has never heard of. They seem to be called aircraft cannons.

Although the result is the old-fashioned victory of justice over evil, the process is really exciting. The exciting and cruel battles one after another, and the brutal massacres that devastated the conscience again and again made Xiao Shitou fascinated.

The master even talked about some amazing lifestyles, it was a day like a fairy.

The machine monster that can walk, the strange machine that can make people fly in the sky, the master's mind is just endless, and strange stories pour out from his mind.

In addition to these stories, the master also began to teach Xiao Shitou some basic luck methods. Although this luck method is very simple and elementary, it seems that the master and his elders only have these simple methods. By the side of the pool, he is practicing the so-called inner strength and mental method.

But for Xiao Shitou, this simple inner strength mentality method seems to be very useful. In the dead of night, although the cool wind is blowing, but with this qi training method, the whole body is warm without a trace of cold.

He naturally didn't know that Xue Poye had learned this luck method from Xiao Pan in his free time, but it was just learning and selling it now. The master and apprentice also learned this very elementary luck method at the same time.

For warriors, the smooth flow of energy throughout the body is the basis for advanced martial arts, so these two guys are actually just the beginning of the difficult martial arts.

Time passed day by day, and after seven or eight days in Liuheyuan, everything seemed extremely quiet, without any changes, except that Xue Poye felt that someone was always watching him from behind, and his life was very peaceful.

Princess Yi's strength has improved greatly in a short period of time, and she can lift a weight of twenty catties. For the golden branch and jade leaves of Princess Yi, this is undoubtedly a miracle.

However, Xue Poye's request here is still too far away. Xue Poye also knows that he can't wait until the princess's success, so when he has time, he will always explain the archery skills alone. I don't talk much at one time, just let Princess Yi digest it slowly.

That night, Xiaoshitou actually took out a booklet and handed it to Xue Poye, saying: "Master, look at what this is. Grandpa Ganwang said that this is what my parents left me when they sent me to the palace." Yes, I want to keep it safe." These days, I get along well with Xue Poye, and I get Xue Poye's careful care. It seems that I have a sense of security that I haven't had for a long time. After all, I am too young, so it is easy to put myself The master regarded him as a close relative, and handed over this booklet without any concealment.

This is a very thin booklet, there is nothing special about it, only the word "Ecstasy" is written on the cover, if you only read these two words, you may think it is a small pornographic book.

"What's this?" Xue Poye flipped through the booklet, and there were six thin sheets of paper inside, all of which were blank, without a word or a picture, so he couldn't help being curious.

"I don't know either." Xiao Shitou said blankly, "Grandpa Ganwang said it was the booklet left by my parents, and asked me to keep it safe so that I don't lose it, but there is nothing on it."

Xue Poye frowned. Since it was something left by Xiao Shitou's parents, could it be a brochure about his life experience, but why can't he see a word or a picture on it?

It's strange to think about it, but suddenly recalled the routine that I saw on TV, hurriedly took the small stone back to my room, fetched a plate of water, opened the booklet and a piece of paper, reflected in the water Ying, looking forward to some miracle, but unfortunately after half a day, everything is as usual. It is quite strange that this piece of paper is not wet after being soaked in water. It is really weird. Judging from the composition, it is clearly ordinary rice paper. There is nothing special, but it is obviously incomparable to ordinary paper without being soaked in water.

Xue Poye knew that there must be something wrong with it, so he took the booklet and baked it carefully on the palace lantern for a long time, but still found nothing, knowing that it is not an ordinary way to get the result, so he handed the booklet to Xiao Shitou, shook his head and said: " Stone, master, I am ashamed, this thing is too mysterious, it cannot be understood by the master, you should see if there is any predestined person who can help you in the future, maybe there is news about your parents, uh, I mean Maybe, not necessarily.”

Little Stone was a little disappointed and very depressed.

Xue Poye poured a cup of tea, sat at the table and asked, "Shitou, did your Grandpa Wang say anything about the booklet?"

Xiao Shitou shook his head, but nodded again, and asked, "He said that even if the blood dries up, this booklet can't be thrown away, so...does that count?"

Xue Poye sighed, and said helplessly: "This doesn't count, it's just for you to protect the booklet, little stone, no matter whether it is useful or not, after all, it is something left by your parents, you should keep it carefully, don't throw it away .Eh, you...you mean blood?"

"what?"

"Your grandpa can't throw away the book even if you bleed dry?" Xue Poye seemed to think of something, and said excitedly.

Xiao Shitou nodded and said: "Yes, Grandpa Gan Wang gave this book... By the way, Grandpa Gan Wang said it was called the book of ecstasy. When he handed it to me, he told me this sentence."

"Blood...!" Xue Poye murmured, and after a while, he frowned and said, "Could it be that this booklet needs blood to reveal the words?"

"Blood?" Xiaoshi was stunned for a moment, his star-black eyes froze.

Xue Poye leaned back on the chair and thought for a while, finally said: "How about we try?"

Xiao Shitou nodded, for this master, Xiao Shitou still believed very much, and asked, "Whose blood?"

Xue Poye smiled wryly, "Whoever's blood will be used more."

"Then master, you have a lot of blood!" Xiao Shitou said seriously.

Xue Poye gave him a blank look, but at this time he didn't need his own blood, so why don't you need a small stone to donate blood? Close the door and window, put the booklet on the table, Xue Poye pricked his finger, and dripped blood on the booklet .

The blood rolled on the paper in a bead shape, rolled away from the paper, and scratched away. Not only did there not appear any calligraphy and painting on the paper, it was not even stained with blood.

"This is a wordless scripture." Xue Poye sucked his fingers and said with certainty.

Little Shitou blinked his eyes and asked curiously, "A wordless book?"

"The water and fire are not visible, and we have even used the blood. It is useless. In my opinion, your parents must have left this as a souvenir. There are no calligraphy and paintings in this booklet." Xue Poye analyzed.

"But why did they leave a booklet as a souvenir instead of other things?" Little Stone was puzzled.

"Uh!" Xue Poye thought for a while, and could only explain: "Maybe they want you to study hard, and then you can be the number one scholar in your studies, so that you can write a brilliant stroke on it."

This kind of explanation obviously didn't satisfy Xiao Shitou, so the little guy said sadly: "Since I was allowed to study, why did they send me to the palace as a slave? Since my parents can send me to the palace, maybe they are not ordinary people , I heard that ordinary people can't even enter the gate of the palace. And I'm so young, why did Grandpa Ganwang accept me? I don't know how to do things at that time." These are the questions that Xiaoshi has buried for a long time , have been unable to find a reasonable answer, at this time the master is in front, can't help asking.

These are of course beyond Xue Poye's ability to explain, so he can only shake his head and say: "Some things have no answers, the more you pursue, the more confused you will be."

Xiao Shitou thought for a while, and seemed to think that what the master said made sense, but on second thought, it was all nonsense.

Looking at the booklet on the table, the paper was very flat, with no words or pictures on it. He gritted his teeth, grabbed the small needle, and pierced it into his thumb without hesitation, then pointed his finger at the paper and squeezed it hard. After squeezing, a few drops of blood rolled down and landed on the paper.

Xue Poye sighed, thinking that this was a useless effort, but the moment the blood fell on the paper, something extremely strange happened.
