Salted fish master was forced to accept disciples

Xi Tao gritted her teeth, "Why?"

Xuan Xinghe Jun said inscrutably: "Everything is arranged by heaven, since God made you Luo Tianchen, you have to accept Jiu Ling as Luo Tianchen's apprentice to resolve the grievances between the human and shark races. "

Xitao was puzzled, "Didn't Tianjun ask me to go down to earth to complete the task? What does it have to do with the Dao of Heaven?"

"...It really doesn't matter, but the way of heaven has its own rules, and both humans and immortals have their own destiny. The way of heaven and destiny must not be violated, otherwise it will inevitably lead to..."

"……speak English."

Mr. Xuan Xinghe paused, coughed lowly, and said in a weak voice: "Actually, when I sent you into Luo Tianchen's body that day, I didn't control my strength well...and killed Luo Tianchen."

Xi Tao: "..." The fist is hardened!

He was speechless and choked, and it took him a while to say, "Death is more than a crime."

Luo Tianchen died as soon as he died, and Mr. Xuan Xinghe also killed the people.

Mr. Xuan Xinghe explained: "According to the fate of heaven, Luo Tianchen should have lived for another ten or eight years. Now that he died early, not only changed his own fate, but also changed the fate of others. The matter is of great importance. So... I can only wrong Xianjun Xitao, please replace Luo Tianchen and live in the mortal world for ten or eight years."

"..." Xi Tao was silent for a while, and asked, "What's the benefit?"

"...I can go to the Apprentice Salvation Pavilion and help you feed your fat koi."

"...No need." Xi Tao said angrily.

His koi are not vulgar, and the pond water is not ordinary pond water. Even if they are not fed for thousands of years, it doesn't matter.

He gritted his teeth and said, "And don't mention the five words 'disciple saves the Pavilion' to me, it hurts my heart."

As soon as he thought of his apprentice saving the pavilion, he thought of the golden plaque, and the sadness of being the only one in the pavilion, and his fist was about to harden again!

Mr. Xuan Xinghe's voice froze for a moment, "I can still..."

"Help me take care of Qingling and Sicheng." Xitao interrupted him, without giving him a chance to choose, and said directly: "When they reincarnate, try to help them choose a better fate, don't let them eat too much bitter."

"But Tianjun said that the crimes in Sicheng are serious, and Qingling believers have no way to do it. He wants them to experience the sufferings of the world in reincarnation, reflect on themselves, and realize the Dao. Tianjun also said..."

Xitao smiled, and threatened: "Tianjun also said that immortals must be strict with themselves and not harm innocent people's lives when completing tasks. For example, villains like Luo Tianchen also have their own destiny. If Tianjun knows you……"

"I promise you!" Mr. Xuan Xinghe agreed straight away.

Xi Tao closed her voice in satisfaction.

"However, I can only try my best to choose good fates for them within the scope of my power. I can't decide whether their next life will be humane, demon, or animal, so you still have to complete the task and accept Jiu Ling as a disciple as soon as possible, otherwise Sicheng will be killed. will become a beast."

"I see."

Seeing Yinchuanling's light dimming, Xitao put Yinchuanling back around her waist and walked back thoughtfully.

Xitao stayed in the study for a day, and got a general understanding of the situation in Tianchen's gate. According to the letters and book annotations left by Luo Tianchen, he had a general understanding of Luo Tianchen's character. Luo Tianchen would be more comfortable.

But he couldn't do Luo Tianchen, he had to think of a way to let Luo Tianchen change his temperament naturally without arousing everyone's suspicion.

He put down the last book and looked up, only to find that it was already late at night. He remembered what happened last night, worried that Jiu Ling would cause some trouble, and sent someone to find Jiu Ling.

Jiu Ling walked into the study room, walked up to Xi Tao without saying a word, pulled open the neckline skillfully, and tilted her head to reveal her slender neck.

Seeing the series of indifferent movements he was so familiar with, Xitao froze for a moment, not knowing what he was doing, and only frowned when she saw the tooth marks on his neck in different shades.

He reached out to help Jiu Ling close the neckline, and said solemnly: "Ling'er, I said that I will never drink your blood again."

"Then what do you want me to do?"

"Sleep." Xi Tao patted him on the shoulder, and said as a matter of course, "You will sleep here from now on."

He didn't look at Jiu Ling's darkened face, and handed it to Jiu Ling with the paper he had just written next to him, "I want to change the rules in Tianchen Sect, but I haven't fully figured it out yet, I only sorted out a few for the time being. You help me see."

Xi Tao thought about the reform plan for a day today. He wanted to solve the Yuren matter earlier and reduce the hatred in Jiu Ling's heart.

As Luo Tianchen, he has no ability to rescue all the mermen in Xishui City, so he can only change from the Tianchen Gate first. As a merman, Jiuling should know what the mermen need now better than him.

Jiu Ling took the paper and glanced at it, then mercilessly threw the paper back on the desk, pursed her lips and said coldly, "I can't read."

Luo Tianchen clearly knew that he had no chance to learn how to read, but deliberately used this method to humiliate him, he couldn't help being a little angry.

Xi Tao was taken aback before realizing that Jiuling had been raised and enslaved in captivity since birth, and had never had the chance to read or write.

Xi Tao frowned slightly, "I'll teach you how to read and write."

Jiu Ling opened his mouth, wanting to refute.

Xitao took the lead and said, "It's fine if you don't recognize me as a master, but let me teach you."

Reading can help Jiuling know the book and etiquette, distinguish right from wrong, and then he can find the right direction in life, so that he will not be trapped in the quagmire of hatred and cannot extricate himself.

He has been in contact with Jiuling for the past two days, and he has already felt sorry for the child. Even if he didn't want to finish the task quickly, he wanted to teach Jiuling as much as possible so that Jiuling could settle down in Xishui City, protect himself, and take good care of him. Only by surviving, will he be able to lead the mermaids to start a new life in the future.

He thought for a while, and then said: "Of course, it would be better if you let me be your master."

Jiu Ling frowned, looking straight at Xi Tao with black and white eyes.

Xi Tao didn't look at his probing eyes, nor gave him a chance to refuse. After searching for a long time on the bookshelf, she finally found a thousand-character text in the corner, beckoned to him, and said, "Come here, I Teach you how to read first."

Jiu Ling's eyes moved, and she stared complicatedly at the thousand-character text in his hand, reluctant to look away.

He hesitated for a moment, but still couldn't resist the temptation to read, and walked over.

Xi Tao asked him to stand next to her, turned to the first page, pointed to one of the characters and said, "This word reads nine."

Jiuling's gaze fell on the page, and she pursed her lips. After a while, her cheeks were slightly red, and she followed Xitao and whispered: "Jiu..."

Xitao flipped through it, found the character 'Ling', pointed to the word 'Ling' and said, "This character reads Ling."

"Ling."

Xitao wrote these two characters side by side on the white paper, and said with a smile, "Your name, Jiuling, is just these two characters."

Jiuling watched him write these two words stroke by stroke on the paper, his eyes lighted up slightly, and he stared at these two words seriously, as if he wanted to keep these two words in his heart.

It was his name, the one he had lived for 11 years to finally have.

Xi Tao looked at Jiu Ling's focused eyes, and smiled slightly. Jiu Ling was so young that he couldn't show his emotions and anger. His eyes are now slightly bright, and he should already be extremely happy.

Xi Tao rolled her eyes, and while he was in a good mood, she pointed to a word on it, and said calmly, "The word is 'teacher'."

"Teacher." Jiu Ling unconsciously became more and more focused. He stared at the book seriously, and followed Xi Tao to read without thinking too much.

Xi Tao sent out a few pages, pointed to another word, and said nervously: "Respect."

"Read these two words together."

"Master..." Jiu Ling's voice faltered, and he looked up at Xi Tao coldly.

Xi Tao snickered in her heart, turned a blind eye to her apprentice's sharp gaze, pretended nothing happened, pointed to the next word, and continued to teach Jiu Ling how to read.

Xi Tao was very patient when teaching Jiu Ling, and spoke softly, making people want to listen unconsciously.

Without knowing it, Jiu Ling followed him to read all night.

Xi Tao noticed that the gloom on Jiu Ling's body gradually dissipated, and his eyes became brighter as he knew more and more characters.

Xitao was also pleasantly surprised to find that Jiuling was extremely smart, and he almost had an unforgettable memory. In just one night, Jiuling had already memorized a lot of words, and he was making rapid progress. He has such extraordinary talent. If things go on like this, I will be able to make up for all the homework that was delayed before.

Seeing that Jiu Ling was learning with great interest, Xi Tao couldn't bear to interrupt him. She didn't put down the book until she heard the sound of the watch outside and saw that it was too late, "I'll learn this today."

Jiuling Zhengxue worked hard, and glanced at the cover of the book reluctantly. There were three words written on the cover. He had just learned these three words tonight, and he knew that they were pronounced as 'Thousand Characters'.

He had too few opportunities to read, so he had to seize every opportunity to know what these awkward words read.

Seeing the reluctance in his eyes, Xi Tao comforted her, "I'll teach you again tomorrow."

After he finished speaking, he folded the page he was reading and marked it.

Jiu Ling silently watched his movements, feeling a little hopeful in his heart, but he told himself not to get hopeful, Luo Tianchen was just on a whim, maybe he would forget about it tomorrow, or Luo Tianchen might forget about it in the last moment Still smiling at him, the next moment it will bite his neck and suck his blood.

The heat in Jiu Ling's eyes faded, and the eyes became calm again.

Xitao didn't realize what was going on in Jiuling's mind. Just like yesterday, he calmly took his future apprentice to the hot spring in the backyard to take a bath. Seeing that Jiuling's back injury had healed, he was relieved. After the bath, And calmly took the future apprentice to bed.

Jiuling also disliked him just like yesterday. Although he didn't resist when he was sleeping, he hid away and turned his back to him, leaving only the back of his head indifferent.

Xitao feels that no progress is also a kind of progress.

He smiled contentedly, flicked his fingers, and extinguished the candle.

Today, he has replaced all the candles in the house with ordinary wax oil. Although it is not as bright as before, it looks warm and cozy.
