Longevity, starting from traveling and telling stories

Chapter 98 Another Chance Encounter

The sun poured down on the colorful vegetation. There were several disciples weeding in the field, and they seemed to be complaining.

A breeze blew by, and the swaying flowers emitted bursts of fragrance, which made Ye Beixuan feel relaxed and happy.

On an open space not far away, there stands an ancient well, as if witnessing the vicissitudes of time, and the three houses beside the well also look very dilapidated.

And in the room, there was a busy figure wiping every spot with freshly drawn well water, his movements skillful and serious.

No one has been here for a long time, so it seems particularly quiet.

As Ye Beixuan was cleaning, he muttered, "It turns out that I, a leader, am a lone commander."

"No wonder Zhang Kun and Li Zhe looked so surprised when I applied to be the leader."

Recalling their expressions at that time, Ye Beixuan shook his head, but this was exactly what he wanted.

But since I have chosen this place, I naturally have to learn something. I am immune to all poisons, so it might be a good idea to learn from Shennong who tasted hundreds of herbs.

"Huh" Looking at the brand new house, Ye Beixuan took a deep breath and nodded with satisfaction. Next, he could go take a look at the medicine garden.

After closing the door, he took brisk steps and headed towards the fields. Several outer disciples were surprised to see the teacher who taught them swordsmanship yesterday coming here.

"Hello, Mr. Ye." A disciple about eighteen years old called out respectfully.

"Well, hello." Ye Beixuan responded politely, but he felt a little melancholy in his heart. He was only one or two years older than them!
"What's your name?" Ye Beixuan curiously watched him skillfully arrange the bright red flowers and asked, "What kind of flowers are these?"

"Sir, my name is Zhang Xiaohe," he continued, introducing, "This flower is called peony. Besides being beautiful, it has the function of nourishing and cooling the blood. It's specially used to make detoxification pills."

"Thank you, I'll go over there and take a look." Ye Beixuan thanked with a smile, and then walked towards other fields.

After walking around a few fields and listening to several disciples introduce pharmacology, a disciple suddenly ran over hurriedly. He gasped and said, "Mr. Ye, the sect leader wants to see you. He is waiting over there in the house."

"Thank you." After Ye Beixuan thanked him, he immediately walked back.

As soon as I returned to the yard, I saw Zhang Kun coming here with a child whose body was scratched by thorns and waiting for him. It turned out to be Ye Xiaobei.

Ye Beixuan couldn't help but smile bitterly. How did this kid get here? Seeing that he was covered in wounds, it seemed that he had suffered a lot.

"Mr. Ye, haha." Zhang Kun saw Ye Beixuan coming back and hurried forward to bow and said, "Just now I came down the mountain and saw this kid coming up. He said he wanted to find his master, a bearded man. That's why I came here specifically to ask."

Before he could finish his words, Ye Xiaobei suddenly ran up to Ye Beixuan, knelt down and said, "Master."

"." This is being forced to become my disciple. Well, it's good to have a companion here, and someone to help with the work. It's not bad. Just accept him.

"Since you are so determined, I will accept you as my disciple!"

"Thank you, Master." Ye Xiaobei was overjoyed. He knelt down and kowtowed three times. Ye Beixuan also gladly accepted it.

"Hahaha, congratulations to Mr. Ye for having a talented disciple." Zhang Kun bowed and congratulated. In fact, he was also filled with emotion in his heart. Mr. Ye was truly a god. It was obvious that this child had no talent for cultivation, but he actually accepted him as a disciple.

Suddenly, a golden light streaked across the sky from high above, and was followed by a silver light like a brilliant arrow with a tail, flying opposite to the golden light. The two golden and silver lights were so bright that the outer disciples were envious and jealous.

"Another inner sect master is practicing magic."

"Ah! I don't know when we can be like them."

"What's this?" Ye Beixuan looked at the sky curiously, then turned to look at Zhang Kun. "Hey! That's the inner sect genius practicing the art of combining two swords!" Zhang Kun said with a calm smile, "My Tianji Pavilion has the Sun and Moon Divine Swords. Once combined, their power is boundless. Alas! With our low aptitude, it's difficult for us to even touch that level."

"But I heard that one of the disciples this time seems to be from the Xuanxin Sect. I just don't know if they can succeed. It is said that the fusion of the two requires the closest family and love."

"Hey! That disciple from Goddess Peak is as beautiful as a fairy."

"I hope it works! Otherwise, if the zombies attack, I'm afraid we won't be able to escape!"

"My dearest and most beloved one?" Ye Beixuan asked curiously, "Oh? There is such a magical weapon? What if the fusion fails?"

Zhang Kun smiled awkwardly and said, "If we fail, I'm afraid I'll be burned in flames, or even die without a burial place."

The two golden and silver lights in the air continued to flicker. It was obvious that the combination was not successful. It seemed that the combination was not that simple.

"Mr. Ye, I have brought your disciple here. I have something important to do, so I will go ahead. If you have any other requests, feel free to send your disciples to tell me." Seeing that the matter was almost done, Zhang Kun immediately bowed and said goodbye.

After Zhang Kun left, Ye Beixuan looked at the bedraggled Ye Xiaobei with a wry smile, but what could he do? He had to teach his disciple till the end, even with tears in his eyes.

"Go get some water and wash yourself first. I don't have any children's clothes, so please alter the clothes I'm wearing later!"

Ye Xiaobei immediately said sensibly, "Thank you, Master."

After saying that, he fetched water and washed himself skillfully. It is said that children from poor families grow up early, and there is some truth to that.

As evening approached, the disciples in the Spiritual Medicine Garden had already gone back, leaving only three dilapidated houses with wisps of smoke rising from them.

Ye Beixuan was washing vegetables in the yard, and Ye Xiaobei was helping to pick them.

At this moment, a fireball suddenly appeared in the air and fell straight towards the two of them. They couldn't help but look up.

Ye Beixuan's pupils shrank. With his keen eyesight, he could naturally see that there was a human figure in the fireball. The fireball had arrived in the blink of an eye.

"Not good." He waved his hand casually, and Ye Xiaobei was thrown to the side, and then a fireball hit him.

[Defense thicker than pigskin activated]

With a clang, Ye Beixuan subconsciously caught the fireball and raised his hand to extinguish the flames on her body. Her skin was also smoked black, and she turned out to be a woman with tattered clothes.

"It's her." Holding the unconscious beauty in his arms, Ye Beixuan stood there for a long time without moving, and was shocked.

Is it her? She's not dead? She's also in the Tianji Pavilion? Why is that?
"Master, she seems to be dying." Ye Xiaobei looked at Ye Beixuan who was standing there in a daze and reminded him.

Ye Beixuan was brought back to his senses by Ye Xiaobei. He reacted immediately and flashed back into the house.

Regardless of the fact that she was covered in black, he put her on the bed. She was burning hot all over, and it seemed as if there was an evil fire burning her internal organs wantonly.

Although the burns were not serious on the surface, with her clothes only torn, the evil fire inside was constantly destroying her body.

"This evil fire is really weird. How can I suppress it?" Ye Beixuan took her pulse and muttered to himself.

"Xiaobei, get me a bucket of water."
