Chapter 22: The Beginning of the Practice (1)
Shui Ling'er's trespass in the wine cellar is a big deal, and Sanguo Lao jointly wrote to Xi Mutong, clearly expressing his opinion on the child, three years old and seven years old, saying that at his current age, if he doesn't teach well, he will not be able to become a talent in the future, so this time he must be severely punished.
The Zhuxian brothers interrogated again and again, but Shui Ling'er's mouth seemed to be glued, insisting that he was greedy for fun, and did not mention that he wanted to make friends with Zhuye Lingtong.
Zhu Yue knew that he was extremely talented, and he had a ghost idea, so he could always touch the confused hall from his own dormitory, and he spent so much effort to change into the costume of the bamboo leaf spirit boy and find out the place of the wine cellar, which was by no means as simple as being playful.
He wanted to use the Finger Heaven Zen to probe his brain, but he thought that Shui Ling'er was no longer the muddy and nightmarish demon baby boy whose life was hanging by a thread, and he should respect his own thoughts, so it was useless to hold back, hoping that he would finally confess by himself.
In order to calm down the incident, Xi Mutong summoned the old Sanguo and the Zhuxian brothers to the return hall, asked them about the before and after, guessed seven or eight points in his heart, and smiled faintly, and said: "Shui Ling'er trespassed into the wine cellar, the crime is unforgivable, but because he is still a child, he should not be severely punished, so let him be confined in the Xuanbing Cave for three days, and no one is allowed to see him." Everyone, are you satisfied?"
"This ......," the three elders didn't know how to answer for a while.
The Xuanbing Cave is an extremely cold place, and there is a threat of ice bees in the cave, such a punishment is unbearable even for adults, let alone the young children in Xi Muxian's mouth?
Although the old men were angry in their hearts, they had been preaching and teaching for hundreds of years, and they loved their children very much.
Zhu Xing couldn't bear it anymore, and hurriedly stepped forward and arched his hand, "Auntie, your punishment is too heavy, let alone three days, even if you can't survive for three hours, isn't this clearly trying to kill him in the Xuanbing Cave!"
Looking at Zhuyue again, he was not as flustered as last time, when Shui Ling'er swallowed the drops of dew, he just stood quietly to the side, silent.
Xi Mutong also glanced at Zhu Yue, and said to Zhu Xing: "The reason, you will understand it in the future, this matter is settled, let's disperse." Then he turned around and left the hall of return.
Shui Ling'er finally woke up completely, and after getting up from the bed, she didn't eat or drink, and sat in front of the window in a daze.
He knew that he had caused a big accident this time, but he didn't know how his aunt and master planned to punish him. However, these worries were secondary, and the most important thing for him was that he let them down.
They must hate themselves very much now, right? Maybe the master has already begun to regret taking such a "bad boy" as an apprentice? Will they not want him because of this and drive him out of Jiluo Mountain?
As long as he thought about it, he would tremble all over, and tears of sadness would flow down with him. He shouted in his heart: "You punish me, Ling'er is wrong, Ling'er is willing to accept any punishment, but don't drive me away!"
Just as he was thinking about it, someone knocked on the door, and he didn't need to open it, but the man had pushed the door in, and it was a spirit boy soldier in military uniform, with a colorful box in his hand.
Shui Ling'er looked at him, ignored it, turned his head out of the window again, and said nothing.
The spirit boy soldier put the box on the table and said, "Little boy, I came to see you on the orders of Aunt Ximu." ”
Hearing this, Shui Ling'er was shocked and thought uneasily, "Could it be that my aunt wants him to send me away?"
So he turned around in horror and looked at him blankly.
The Spirit Boy Soldier continued, "My name is Dou Dou. ”
"Doudou?
When Shui Ling'er heard this name, she forgot to panic and jumped up from her chair, "You are the head of the Spirit Child Soldier?"
A trace of helplessness crossed his face, and he corrected him: "Little boy, the commander of our Spirit Scout Army is the Soldier Dragon and the Soldier Tiger, I am not a leader, but everyone likes me and is willing to talk to me." ”
"Oh......" Shui Ling'er blushed, touched her head embarrassedly, and asked, "Auntie, why do you want to come to see me?"
Dou Dou looked at him for a long time with a pair of eyes, and said: "Little boy, our Bamboo Leaf Spirit Child is the body of an elf, as you know, the elf is indeed a good drinker by nature. However, Jiluo Mountain is an important military place of the immortal clan, and safety is related to the three realms. We are responsible for guarding and never taking it lightly. Therefore, since the establishment of Jiluo Mountain, there has been strict control over wine. ”
"This ...... Sister-in-law didn't tell me......" Shui Ling'er said secretly in her heart.
Dou Dou continued to explain: "Once a month, we will be allocated a drink by Sanguo Lao to boost the Shenyuan. During the festive season, they will also be given the gift of drinking, but not excessively. It is a great honor for the little boy to be willing to make friends with us, but there is really no need to take the risk of making this decision to steal wine for us. Besides, even if you steal the wine, we will never accept the strict military discipline of the Spirit Scouts. ”
Dou Dou said that Shui Ling'er was ashamed and surprised. His little face was flushed, and he asked, "But how did my aunt know what I was thinking?"
Dou Dou said: "Aunt Ximu has a pair of discerning eyes and knows everything, how can you hide this little bit of caution from her? Moreover, after you fell ill by the fragrance of wine, Sister-in-law Catch Clothes has already gone to ask your aunt and the bamboo fairies for her guilt, and then was punished to work as a coolie in the Water Purification Pavilion for three days. ”
"Water Purification Pavilion?"
"Well, that's where the and urine bucket goes. ”
Shui Ling'er almost didn't fall off the chair when she heard this, poor sister-in-law, she was originally going to help her fight sloppiness, but in the end she hurt her for stealing alcohol.
Dou Dou didn't say a word of nonsense, his eyes turned to the colorful box on the case, and instructed: "This is the phoenix feather treasure armor given to you by my aunt, this armor is refined by phoenix feathers, it is extremely soft, but it can resist most artifact attacks, and it can grow with your body." It's a treasure that's warm in winter and cool in summer, so you can put it on and use it later. ”
"Huh, wait?" Shui Ling'er was puzzled and wanted to ask again, but Doudou had already walked to the door.
Before going out, he turned his head and added: "Three days later, when I came out of the Xuanbing Cave, if the little boy still has this heart, Doudou and the little boy are good friends for a lifetime." ”
"Xuanbing Cave, three days, alone...... This is the punishment for yourself. ”
