Ancient Devouring Technique

Chapter 857 Xuanyun Sect Recruits Disciples
Although the people in the seaside villages are simple and honest, there are bad kids everywhere.

After Meadow drove the children away, she discovered that the boy in the big iron barrel was mentally ill.

She was just an ordinary village girl with no martial arts skills, let alone medical skills.

In the next few days, seeing that the boy was always hiding in the iron barrel, Meadow was worried that he would be hungry, so she brought him some food every day.

The boy didn't dare to take her food a few days ago, but today he finally ate it. This made Meadow feel relieved. She was really afraid that the boy would starve to death.

"Little brother, what's your name?" Meadow asked.

The boy paused while eating, then looked at Mei Duo, his eyes panicking and confused. "Name...name?"

Seeing this, Mei Duo was sure that the boy was a little fool. She shook her head and smiled, saying, "Sister, I'll come back tomorrow to bring you food."

Having said that, Mei Duo, who was squatting, stood up and turned to leave.

But after she walked for a while, her expression changed. She turned around and saw the boy following her from a distance.

Mei Duo was stunned.

"Little brother, I want to go home." Meadow said softly, afraid of scaring the boy.

"Home?" The boy looked confused after hearing what Mei Duo said.

"Well, why don't you follow me." Meadow thought for a moment and said softly.

After she finished speaking, the boy really followed her, like a puppet. Mei Duo smiled helplessly and thought about going back to the village to see the old doctor.

The villagers in the village were surprised to see Meiduo bringing back a dirty boy. Meiduo was very kind and the villagers couldn't help but care about this simple and strong girl.

"Meiduo, why did you bring a little beggar back?" Aunt Li said.

"He is still a child and has nowhere to go. I brought him back and wanted the old doctor to check him out..." said Meadow.

"Oh, Mr. Zhang has gone on a long journey to sell goods, and he won't be back for a while." A middle-aged man came over, put down the firewood on his shoulder, and said.

"Is that so?" Mei Duo frowned. It would take at least ten days or half a month for her to come back from selling seafood. It seemed that she could only let the boy live in her home first.

"Let's go, Xiaotong." Meadow said, and left with the boy.

Xiao Keg was the name she gave to the boy.

The big man saw the two people walking away and scratched his head. "This Xiaomei, is she going to let the little beggar live in her house?"

Aunt Li smiled and said, "You really care about this."

The big man chuckled and said, "Of course, there are only two sisters in Meiduo's family. Meiduo is such a good child, I would let her be my daughter-in-law."

Aunt Li curled her lips and said, "You dare to compete with me for my daughter-in-law? My child is coming back from the sect."

The big man was surprised and asked, "Has your son succeeded in martial arts?"

"Of course." Aunt Li said, "But it seems that he came back this time because the big sect is recruiting disciples again."

“So, it’s been exactly three years. This time my son will definitely be able to awaken his martial soul and enter that sect.” said the big man.

……

When Meadow returned home with the 'bucket', a little girl ran out of the house.

"Hey, sister, is he the little beggar?"

The little girl, who was about ten years old, ran to Meiduo's side and looked at the "bucket" curiously with her big eyes.

"Well, Ruirui, you should call him brother and let him live in our house first." Mei Duo said with a smile.

"Oh! I have a brother now. I won't be afraid of being bullied by others anymore!" Ruirui jumped for joy.

The boy looked at the happy little girl, his expression still dull.

Meadow looked at the two children and sighed in her heart. Her sister was already frail and sickly, and now there was a boy. It seemed that she would have to get up earlier and weave more fishing nets in the future.

Just as Meiduo was thinking this, the little girl suddenly screamed, fell to the ground, twitching, and her face turned pale.

"Sister, what's wrong with you!?" Mei Duo was startled and rushed over.

"Sister, I'm so cold!" The little girl became cold all over.

Meiduo felt a chill in her heart. Her sister's illness had come earlier than expected. It used to be once every three days, but now it has become every two days. If it continues like this...

Meiduo felt a pang in her heart. According to the old doctor, when her sister was sick every day, the cold poison might attack her heart at any time.

A dirty palm was suddenly placed on Ruirui's face.

Meiduo was stunned, this palm belonged to "Xiaotong".

He looked and saw that Xiaotong's eyes were still numb and dull, but the next moment, a magical scene appeared. A soft white light appeared on Xiaotong's palm, covering Ruirui. Then, Ruirui's painful expression gradually eased, and the coldness in Ruirui's body disappeared.

"Ah! What did Brother Xiaotong do to me? I'm not cold at all!" When the white light disappeared, Ruirui covered her mouth and screamed.

Meiduo was also in disbelief. You know, every time her sister fell ill, it would last for an hour, and even she couldn't stand the cold breath!
Meiduo thought of something and asked excitedly, "Xiaotong, are you a warrior?"

"Warrior?" The boy repeated, still confused.

Mei Duo smiled bitterly when she saw this, and after thinking for a while, she said, "Xiao Tong, can you tell me how you did it, how you saved Rui Rui?"

The boy said, "She is cold, give her warmth."

Mei Duo knew that she couldn't ask anything, but she still said excitedly, "Well, you are all good children. Sister will stew fish for you today!"

"That's great! We can eat stewed fish again!" Ruirui jumped up excitedly.

Meadow didn't notice that when the boy heard the word "good boy", he frowned and a strange look appeared on his face.

"Good boy? Who am I?" the boy said foolishly.

His head gradually turned and looked towards the distant sky.

After a while, a huge white boat slowly flew over in the sky.

As the giant boat flew over, not only did he notice it, but the people in the seaside villages here also saw this scene.

"That's a flying boat, a flying treasure used exclusively by warriors!"

"so big!"

"There are warriors up there!"

"I saw my Li Hu! They are from Xuanyun Sect!
The villagers exclaimed.

Ruirui was beside Ye Xuan, and the little girl said excitedly, "Brother Xiaotong, do you know that warriors can split rocks and tear tigers and leopards with their bare hands, and some grandfathers can move mountains and fill the sea. I wonder if it's true or not?"

The flying boat stopped in the sky, and a handsome man in the lead said proudly:
"Where is the village chief? I am Tang Fengsheng from Xuanyun Sect. I am in charge of recruiting disciples this year. Come and see me immediately!"

The villagers were excited because it was time to recruit disciples.

Tang Fengsheng stood on the flying boat, frowned and said impatiently: "This place is quite small."

A female disciple next to him smiled and said, "Brother Tang, you came here on your own initiative. If you can recruit a few outstanding disciples, Sister Pastor will definitely look at you with new eyes."

When mentioning the pastor sister, Tang Fengsheng smiled, and the other disciples of Xuanyun Sect followed suit.

"Sister Pastor is the proud daughter of our sect, and only Senior Brother Tang can match her!"

"Hahaha, I think so too!"
