Chapter 79 Orphans
Qi Mu asked Qian Yang and the others to sit down, took out several spiritual fruits and put them on the plate, and pushed them in front of Yu Zhu. He turned to Qian Yang and said, "The level of this spiritual fruit is not high. Our cultivation level will not taste much. Let's see if the little girl eats it."
Qian Yang shook his head, not knowing whether he should say he is generous or he should say he is stingy.
Seeing Qi Mu's life seemed a little embarrassed, Qian Yang could not speak out because he had planned to ask Qi Mu for help.
However, with Qi Mu's ability, it should not be like this. Qian Yang walked with Qi Mu last time, but he knew the ability of the third young master Qi. Among the monks of the same level, Qi Mu's combat power was definitely the best. Not to mention the gains of his years of experience outside, just talking about his trip to the secret realm, his gains alone are comparable to Qian Yang and Fatty.
Qian Yang didn't know how to speak, but Qi Mu couldn't rest: "Last time, Senior Brother Qian said he would come to me after he left, but I waited for more than half a year, which made me dare not even go into seclusion. How should Senior Brother Qian compensate me?"
Qian Yang is not so easy to fool: "Don't dare to go into seclusion? Junior Brother Qi has made great progress in his cultivation. I'm afraid he has just left the seclusion?" After a brief fight, Qian Yang saw at a glance that Qi Mu's skills were still above him. He was already at the seventh level of Qi Refining, so Qi Mu naturally made another breakthrough during this period.
Qi Mu made an expression that you had seen through, and then asked, "Is there something wrong with Senior Brother here?"
Qian Yang nodded and briefly explained Yu Zhu's situation to Qi Mu. One person had a short plan, and the two had a high plan. Even if Qi Mu couldn't solve it, it would be much better to discuss it than he was alone.
After hearing this, Qi Mu turned to Yu Zhu, but Yu Zhu didn't raise his head, pretending not to hear anything, and was eating fruits at will. The little girl was using this clumsy way to hide her embarrassment. Until Yu Zhu ate a plate of spiritual fruits, she could still feel Qi Mu's eyes staring at her.
There was nothing to hide, Yu Zhu had to raise her head and face Qi Mu's exploratory gaze. Qi Mu's gaze had no intention of leaving, and Yu Zhu also bulged her cheeks and glanced at Qi Mu with a slanted eyes, without any desire to show weakness.
After a while, Yu Zhu's upper and lower eyelids began to fight, and his eyes turned black and his neck fell tilted, and he almost fell asleep. Qi Mu was startled and then laughed out loud by the little girl's cuteness.
Yu Zhu blushed and buried her head under her arms and never lifted it up again. The nearly ten-day itinerary was too hard for Yu Zhu. After calming down, the strong sleepiness came uncontrollably towards her.
"Go and have a sleep!" Qian Yang felt a little distressed. In his opinion, such a big girl should be spoiled and should not endure the hardships no matter what.
"Yeah." Yu Zhu nodded, and Qi Muze quickly went to the room to clean up the bed and arranged for the little girl to go to bed. After some busyness, Qi Mu and Qian Yang sat at the table again.
Now that Yu Zhu is gone, the two of them are less concerned about talking.
"Is Junior Brother Qi able to settle Xiaozhu?" Qian Yang asked.
"There is a solution, but I'm afraid of letting her down." Qi Mu hesitated a little.
Qian Yang's eyes lit up: "Junior Brother Qi might as well tell me!"
Qi Mu's expression became a little heavy, and he slowly spoke: "A few years ago, a fellow Taoist had a close relationship with me and often went out to practice together. But later he died unexpectedly. Before he died, he asked me to help him take care of his young son who was only ten years old. My friend asked me to ask him to ask for an orphan. I naturally had no responsibility for practicing. However, as a monk, once he was in seclusion, it would take at least several months. If he went out, the time would be even more difficult to estimate. It was really hard to let me take care of a child alone. I had no other choice, so I had to rent a house for him not far away and hire him.
I was afraid that he would be alone and lonely, so I found a monk with a similar age and a good mind in the town to live with him. When I had free time, I went to visit him. Now those children are almost at the age of enlightenment. I have accumulated some spirit stones over the years and are planning to find some introductory techniques for them to practice. The little girl is not very different from them and has a similar background. If she doesn't dislike her, she can live with these children. Once she has achieved success in her cultivation, she can also take care of each other in the future."
Qian Yang thought for a long time after hearing this. He never expected that Qi Mu would quietly adopt several orphans of the wandering cultivators. While he felt admiring, he also had some concerns.
"Are there many orphans of monks in the town?" Qian Yang seemed to ask an irrelevant question.
"Yeah!" Qi Mu nodded: "There are a large number of casual cultivators living in Iris Town. The fall rate of casual cultivators is quite amazing. Many fallen monks have left their blood in the town."
"It's not a small cost for you to take in those children?" Qian Yang asked again.
Qi Mu shook his head: "There hasn't been much spent in the past few years. The children are not yet at the age of practicing. They only need some mortal consumption. I will occasionally get some spiritual fruits for them to improve their physiques, but they can't spend a few spirit stones. However, the children are about to spend 15 years, and purchasing skills, but the spells are a big expense. I have saved up almost all the money over the years."
Qian Yang stood up and bowed deeply: "Junior Brother Qi has a noble character, and what he said and done really makes Qian Yang embarrassed!"
Qi Mu chuckled and shook his head: "It's not noble because of the situation. These children are really good-natured and lovely. I can't watch such a good child sink into depravity no matter what. Besides, I have some investment attitude! If I am praised for this, Qi will feel ashamed!"
"Junior Brother Qi is too humble." Qian Yang shook his head and then asked: "The martial arts and magic that Junior Brother Qi mentioned should be purchased in the Alliance of Living Cultivators? I wonder how much is the value?"
Qi Mu knew this very well: "The introductory techniques are mostly about five hundred spirit stones, and ordinary initial spells are about two or three hundred spirit stones per sect. If each child is equipped with one technique and two spells, it will take about one thousand spirit stones!"
"How many children do you have?" Qian Yang couldn't help but be shocked when he heard the price.
Qi Mu smiled softly: "Four boys and three girls, if you add this little girl, you can get two dominoes!"
Qian Yang gave a thumbs up: "The third young master is indeed rich!"
Qi Mu Zhengzhen's expression: "But there is one thing that Brother Qian must think about. Once the little girl purchases the martial arts and starts practicing, it will be completely eliminated. No sect will include an enlightened disciple."
Qian Yang nodded, and he naturally knew that changing the exercises after practicing would be a huge price. Therefore, if there were no special circumstances, the sect would naturally not include those who had practiced other exercises. In order to join the Qingling Sect, Luo Tong did not dare to practice by himself, but waited for five years.
This matter is related to the little girl's life, and Qian Yang dared not make any decisions: "Let the little girl decide for herself!"
