Seeking Immortality

"uncle……"

"Master."

"master."

When Xu Qingfan stepped into the row of monasteries used for medical treatment of injuries in the Righteous Path Alliance, three surprised voices recalled one after another that it was Ting'er, Zhang Ningmei, and Bai Yu.

Among them, Ting'er was sitting cross-legged on a bamboo bed, talking calmly to Zhang Ningmei and Bai Yu. When she saw Xu Qingfan, although the expression on her face was still habitually cold, under the coldness, she was unbearable. of joy. That action had a great impact on Xu Qingfan, and even changed Xu Qingfan's character in some aspects. The same could be said for Ting'er? Although Ting'er has been recuperating in this monastery for the past seven years, the scene of being besieged by the beastly monks is still vivid in her mind, so every time Xu Qingfan leads the team out to perform tasks, Ting'er is worried, and every time When Xu Qingfan came here to see her after finishing his mission, she was extremely happy, as if they were reunited after a disaster. But less than a moment of happiness, he began to worry about the risks Xu Qingfan would encounter during his next mission.

Just like this, just because of Xu Qingfan, the cold-hearted Ting'er became far more concerned about gains and losses than ordinary people, which made Xu Qingfan feel a little guilty. He always vowed to take good care of Ting'er, but in fact, Ting'er followed him After her death, it turned out to be more of a painful struggle, but after she was relieved, Xu Qingfan gave her endless worries.

On the other side, Zhang Ningmei is still as calm as ever before, and Bai Yu is still lively. In the past seven years, Ting'er and Xiao Hei have been taken care of by Zhang Ningmei. Over the years, they have learned from the medical masters of various sects. There are many treatments available. While Xu Qingfan was away from home all year round, Bai Yu lost his restraint and wandered around Ronghua Mountain all day long. He is very familiar with the casual cultivators who often pester Xu Qingfan, and often pleads for the twins to let Xu Qingfan accept them as his disciples, imagining that one day he will lead a large group of junior disciples to go around doing chivalry and righteousness.

After Xu Qingfan returned to Jiuhua with the news of his alliance with the Righteous Alliance. Zhang Ningmei and Bai Yu also officially entered the gate wall of Jiuhua. Then Jiuhua officially moved their faction to the vicinity of Ronghua Mountain, temporarily abandoning Jiuhua Mountain. After all, outside the base camp of Guxuan and the Righteous Alliance, it was too dangerous in the catastrophe. .

However, because the "Bahuang Palace" had gradually declined when Jiuhua was born, and the special characteristics of the new "Beast Madness Monk" appeared. It is extremely difficult for monks below the elixir formation stage to deal with them. Therefore, the scene that Xu Qingfan had been worried about that Zhang Ningmei and Bai Yu would fight and suffer a cruel catastrophe as soon as Jiuhua was born did not appear. These two people have been in "Ronghua Mountain" for these years, and are very safe under heavy protection. , so while Xu Qingfan became slightly numb and callous in his heart because he was used to seeing death, injury and killing, Zhang Ningmei and Bai Yu were as calm or optimistic as before.

Either he was used to the noise and cruelty of the world outside the mountain, or he yearned for those things that allowed him to recall the past after the loss, or he was exhausted from fighting and heard the calls of the three disciples. Xu Qingfan first nodded to the three of them, and then smiled slightly, his indifference actually being particularly gentle.

"Ting'er, are you feeling better?"

Xu Qingfan walked to Ting'er's bed and asked warmly.

"It has been cured." Ting'er replied in a low voice.

Xu Qingfan nodded slightly, but then shook his head and said: "Let's cultivate for a while longer. After all, the original injury was too serious. It even damaged the foundation of the meridians and Dantian. Although the injury has recovered, the Dantian meridians may not have been completely healed. It’s better to practice for a while to restore your functions. After all, it’s a big deal for your future.”

Hearing what Xu Qingfan said, Zhang Ningmei and Bai Yu had strange expressions next to them, with the corners of their mouths turned up, half-smiling. But after Ting'er heard Xu Qingfan's remark, she suddenly raised her head and glanced at Xu Qingfan, as if she wanted to say something. What? Finally, a trace of frustration flashed in his eyes, and he lowered his head again, with an unwilling expression on his face, and said softly: "Okay."

In fact, Ting'er had fully recovered two years ago, but Xu Qingfan repeatedly asked Ting'er to stay here to recuperate. And this **** happened for the fourth time between Xu Qingfan and Ting'er, and it was even word for word. Ting'er said that she had recovered and just wanted to follow Xu Qingfan out on a mission. Although Ting'er Even though she knew that her current strength was not enough to protect Xu Qingfan, she felt relieved to stand behind Xu Qingfan and silently look at the back like it had been for a long time. However, Xu Qingfan did not want Ting'er to be in any danger anymore. Regardless of the fact that Ting'er had recovered from her injuries, he forced Ting'er to continue to stay in "Ronghua Mountain" for training.

In the end, although she was unwilling to give in, Ting'er instinctively could not object to anything Xu Qingfan said and compromised for the fourth time.

In the past two years, the same **** has been repeated four times in a row, almost word for word. No wonder Zhang Ningmei and Bai Yu had such weird expressions just now. It is hard for Xu Qingfan and Ting'er to have the patience to say the same words so many times, and now. This trend seems to continue in the future.

What a pair of stubborn, weird and old-fashioned uncle and nephew.

After talking to Ting'er for a while, Xu Qingfan turned around and began to look at Zhang Ningmei and Bai Yu. When he saw Zhang Ningmei, a trace of relief flashed in his eyes, but when he saw Bai Yu, his eyes were filled with severity.

Not only has she taken good care of the injured Xiao Hei and Ting'er over the years, she has also practiced diligently according to Xu Qingfan's instructions. Now, she has reached the middle stage of Lingji and is close to the late stage of Lingqi. Because of her personal specialness, her spiritual consciousness is not less than that of a cultivator in the Jindan stage. In just seven years, she has achieved such an achievement. In addition to the elixirs given by Xu Qingfan, her own diligence is more important. Xu Qingfan is very pleased.

But on the other hand, Bai Yu can't help but give Xu Qingfan a headache. Xu Qingfan didn't let Bai Yu leave the cave. Bai Yu practiced diligently with nothing to do and Xu Qingfan's urging. In recent years, Xu Qingfan has been away all year round, and Ronghua Mountain has many immortals. Bai Yu lost his restraint and liked to be lively. He was idle and called friends all day long. In addition to being diligent in practicing martial arts, he practiced less and less meditation. Now, in terms of cultivation, he has been caught up by Zhang Ningmei.

Back then, Xu Qingfan could still scare him by saying that he would ask Zhang Ningmei to protect Bai Yu in the future, but this method is becoming less and less effective against Bai Yu now.

Seeing Xu Qingfan frowning when he saw him, Bai Yu couldn't help but shrink his neck, and his expression was also aggrieved or guilty. He knew that Xu Qingfan was going to scold him again, but although his expression changed, his eyes remained the same. Obviously, he didn't take Xu Qingfan's scolding seriously. This kind of scolding happened almost every time Xu Qingfan returned to the mountain. When the people of the Righteous Alliance and even the Evil Way gradually began to tremble with fear because of Xu Qingfan's change of color, Bai Yu had already gotten used to it.

"Master, after you came down the mountain this time, I really worked harder than usual. If you don't believe me, ask Senior Sister Ningmei."

Before Xu Qingfan could scold him, Bai Yu had already defended himself. Xu Qingfan didn't know whether to laugh or cry. However, the people of the Righteous Alliance were accustomed to the chaos of fighting outside the mountain, and they were in awe of him. Xu Qingfan felt a strange warmth in his heart for Bai Yu's shamelessness in front of him.

After hearing Bai Yu's words, Zhang Ningmei admitted it directly and said to Xu Qingfan: "Master, it is true. During the three months you went down the mountain this time, Junior Brother Bai Yu meditated for about an incense stick of time more than last time. He really worked harder."

Hearing Zhang Ningmei's unceremonious dismantling of his own stage, Bai Yu couldn't help but secretly glared at Zhang Ningmei, but Zhang Ningmei rarely blinked at Bai Yu, so Bai Yu couldn't get angry at all. In the end, he could only lower his head and wait for Xu Qingfan's reprimand.

Fortunately, Bai Yu had already gotten used to Xu Qingfan's scolding, and for some reason, every time he came back from going out, no matter how angry Xu Qingfan was, no matter how harsh the scolding was, the time between them was getting shorter and shorter. According to Bai Yu's experience, Xu Qingfan would probably scold him for a cup of tea at most this time, and he just hoped that this cup of tea would pass in a flash.

But after looking down for a long time, he strangely didn't hear Xu Qingfan's scolding. He looked up in confusion, but found that Xu Qingfan was also staring at him silently, with a hint of disappointment and thoughtfulness in his eyes, and between his eyebrows, the originally hidden fatigue finally showed a little.

For some reason, Bai Yu, who had long stopped caring about Xu Qingfan's scolding, suddenly felt a little ashamed when he saw Xu Qingfan at this time.
