This beautiful woman was naturally Hidi. She saw Shaw Danon was injured, she was worried and came to visit. She didn't expect her mother was also here, so she hid outside the door until Surin left.
Then she saw Shaw Danon was stunned, she said angrily: "What are you doing standing there?"
Shaw Danon woke up, his face blushed. He was about to find an excuse to explain, but Hidi lowered her head. Big Yella ran over and rubbed his head against her leg intimately.
Hidi bent down, patted Big Yella's head. Big Yella stuck out its tongue, licked her jade-like hand.
[Zhi zhi zhi zhi], the monkey Xiao Hui's voice was heard, two people and one dog looked over at the same time, only to see Xiao Hui running behind Da Huang, pulling its big tail backwards, as if trying to pull Da Huang away from Tian LingEr. Feeling Hidi's surprised eyes, Ashh raised its head, suddenly bared its teeth and made a ferocious face at Hidi.
Hidi was not angry, she also made a face at the monkey. Ever since Ashh came back with Shaw Danon, he got along well with other people except for her. But when she saw Big Yella, who was always on bad terms with Ashh, turned around and did not get angry, but instead played with Ashh intimately, she was surprised.
"What is going on?" Hidi pointed at the monkey and dog playing with each other and asked Shaw Danon.
Shaw Danon told her about how Ashh used the bone to get close to Hidi. Hidi laughed, scolded: "Can't believe this damn monkey can do this!" Then her eyes turned to Shaw Danon, examined him, said: "Right, today my dad hit you, do you feel uncomfortable?"
Shaw Danon shook his head: "Nothing, Shijie."
Hidi was a bit angry, said: "Dad is really too much, why did he take it out on you if he feels uncomfortable!"
Shaw Danon quickly said: "No, it is my stupidity that made master angry..."
Hidi glared at him. Shaw Danon could not continue. Hidi snorted, said: "Actually it is not your fault. It is because my dad saw the potential of those two, his mind was not balanced, so he..." Halfway through, she looked at Shaw Danon, thought that was saying Shidi is stupid, so she changed her words and changed the topic: "Why did my mom come here?"
Shaw Danon honestly said: "Shi niang also came to visit me. She also gave me two 'Rhubarb Pills'. They are very effective. I was cured after eating one."
"Big Yellow Pill?" Tian LingEr seemed to be taken aback.
"Yes," Shaw Danon raised his head, looked at her, said: "What is it?"
Tian LingEr looked at this Xiao Shidi a few more times, said: "This is my dad's treasure. I heard mom said it was made by gathering twenty-three kinds of elixirs. Its effect is amazing. Shixiongs, including me, have never had the luck to use it."
Shaw Danon opened his mouth. Tian LingEr rolled her eyes, said to herself: "Could it be that dad actually treats you differently? But it doesn't look like it."
Shaw Danon said: "It must be master's kindness. Seeing I am injured, he gave me elixirs. He is really broad-minded! "
Tian LingEr laughed: "My dad is broad-minded... heh heh, never mind, I won't talk to you. Eh, why is there rain? "
Shaw Danon listened. He could hear the "pitter patter" of rain outside the house. Tian LingEr walked to the window and pushed it open. A gust of cold mountain breeze immediately blew in, bringing with it the cold raindrops, brushing past her face, it was slightly cool.
Shaw Danon walked to her, stood next to her, looked outside.
It was a quiet and dark night. It was raining. The whole world was dark. His eyes could only see the blurry shadow of the bamboo trimming in the yard. The rain fell from the night sky. In the dark night, in Shaw Danon's eyes, there was a bit of gentleness. He suddenly felt that the night was beautiful. The rain was lingering. Even the sound of the rain hitting on the bamboo leaves was pleasant to hear, rang in his soul.
Because beside him, there was a beautiful girl. She lifted her head, with seven parts youth, two parts joy, and even one part desolate beauty, staring at him:
This rain!
Behind him, Big Yella and Ashh had quieted down. Big Yella was lazily lying on the bed. Its dog eyes were half closed. Ashh also calmed down. It sat next to Big Yella. Its hands were playing with Big Yella's thick and soft fur.
The candlelight was flickering in the mountain wind. Occasionally it made a "crackling" sound.
"It's raining." Tian LingEr suddenly said quietly.
Shaw Danon answered: "Yes."
Tian LingEr stared at the night for a while, then slowly turned around and returned to the table. She said quietly: "Xiao Fan, close the window. It's a bit cold."
Shaw Danon nodded, closed the window. He turned around and saw Tian LingEr was absent-mindedly sitting next to the table. She took out a small box, opened it under the candlelight, and looked at it carefully.
The candlelight reflected in her charming and bright eyes. It was like two balls of gentle but hot flame.
"You say, is this Cooling Bead beautiful?" Hidi's eyes stopped on the small bead that was emitting a soft glow. Her voice was also drifting, just like Shaw Danon's heart, empty, slowly sinking.
He walked over, mustering up all of his courage, using up all of his strength, only then was he able to make himself look this calm. Tian LingEr raised her head and looked at him. She suddenly found this ordinary Shidi's eyes were so bright, even with a trace of passion and pain.
"Pa", she gently closed the small box, asked softly: "Xiao Fan, what happened to you?"
Shaw Danon lowered his head, silent for a moment, then said quietly: "I am fine, Shijie."
Tian LingEr felt strange, but she did not think too much. She stood up and said: "Well, it's late, I should go back."
Shaw Danon stood up woodenly. Tian LingEr walked a few steps, then suddenly stopped. She turned around and smiled. That beauty hit Shaw Danon's heart: "Look at my memory, I even forgot what I wanted to do tonight." Then, she took out a thin piece of paper. There were many small words written on it. She handed it to Shaw Danon.
Shaw Danon took it and looked at it. His face changed, he exclaimed: "Pure Essence incantation! Shijie, this... "
Tian LingEr rolled her eyes at him, said: "Why are you shouting so loud?"
Shaw Danon quickly lowered his voice, said: "Shijie, this is the third level incantation, you..."
"Me?" Tian LingEr snorted, said: "Of course I will pass it to you."
Shaw Danon was surprised, said: "What?"
Tian LingEr said: "I know dad always look down on you. Today he got angry at you, that is even more ridiculous. Hmph, he did not teach his disciple well and still scolded you. I can't stand it. You take this incantation and practice it secretly. When you get good results, show it to my dad. Don't embarrass yourself like today. "
Shaw Danon frowned, said: "But Shijie, if master and shi niang know about it, won't they scold you?"
Tian LingEr said impatiently: "You also said scold. At most they will scold me, put me in confinement for a period of time. What about it? Anyway, I will not let you get bullied! "
Shaw Danon's body shook. His heart suddenly warmed. Looking at Tian LingEr's figure, he could not say a word. At this moment, his blood was boiling. Even if he had to die for the girl in front of him, he would not hesitate.
Tian LingEr continued, "You must remember to put in more effort, and strive to fight to a draw with that arrogant Lin JingYu as soon as possible. But no matter how much you train, you will not be able to match up to QiHao Shixiong, so don't think about it." Speaking till here, she waved her hand, and exhorted, "You must keep it a secret." After speaking, she walked out of the room, and disappeared into the darkness.
"No matter how much you practice, you will not be able to match Kevern Shixiong!"
This sentence of thirteen words, each word heavily hit Shaw Danon's heart. His face suddenly lost its color. Subconsciously, he held the white paper in his hand tightly.
Mountain rain, Heaven and Earth solemn. Who can see the young man in the night, walking into the rain, looking up at the sky!
Early morning, after the rain, the humid mountain wind blew across Bamboo Peak. Shaw Danon came to the familiar kitchen, started a fire to boil water.
The firewood crackled in the stove, and the bright yellow flame was like a demon dancing on the wood, reflecting a red glow on his face. Shaw Danon took a thin piece of firewood as a fire stick, fiddled with the firewood, lost in thought.
"No matter how much you practice, you will not be able to match Kevern Shixiong!"
This sentence, he had repeated it thousands of times in his heart. Every time he read it, it hurt his heart. He knew it was silly. Shijie did not mean any harm. She just said the truth that everyone knew.
But he couldn't help thinking, desperately thinking, as if there was a wild flame burning in his heart, incessantly burning his soul, until the flame burned his hand.
"Ouch!" Shaw Danon screamed and jumped back. When he was lost in thought, the fire burned the firewood in his hand and burned his hand.
He held his hand and blew at the wound, then ran to the water vat and soaked his hand in the cold water. Shaw Danon smiled bitterly. What he needed the most now was not a fire stick.
"Wu, wu, wu", several barks came from the door. Shaw Danon could tell it was Big Yella's barking, but he did not understand why the usual "Woof woof woof" turned into "Wu wu wu". He walked out of the door to take a look and couldn't help but laugh, Da Huang and Xiao Hui were fighting, it was biting a short black stick in its mouth and the other end of the stick was grabbed by Xiao Hui, both parties were arguing and Da Huang was calling out but with the stick in its mouth, it was unclear and became a strange 'wu wu wu' sound.
Shaw Danon walked forward, grabbed the stick, and waved Ashh and Big Yella away. But they were not willing, "Woof woof woof" and "Zhi zhi zhi zhi" kept barking. Shaw Danon waved his hand and threatened: "Go away, don't mess around here, or else I won't give you lunch."
Big Yella and Ashh looked at each other. One roared, the other made a face. Then Ashh jumped onto the dog's back. Big Yella carried it and swaggered away from Shaw Danon with contempt. Shaw Danon was annoyed.
After cursing at the two beasts, Shaw Danon turned around and went into the kitchen. Then he realized that the stick in his hand was the strange black stick from the trip to the deep valley half a year ago. Ashh must be naughty and took it out from the corner to play with Big Yella.
Shaw Danon sighed. Suddenly an idea came to his mind. He quickly walked to the stove and fiddled with the black stick like a fire stick. It was very convenient. He did not know what material the stick was made of. It could not be burned by fire and did not transfer heat. After a long time, it was still cool. Shaw Danon nodded. He thought it was just right to use.
The pitiful Evil Faction elder Elder Blackheart who had already passed away, if he knew that the 'Sinister Orb' which he had painstakingly refined for his entire life, the most valuable treasure of the Evil Faction which had dominated the world, had actually fallen to the state of being used as a firestick, he would most probably be so angry that he would come back to life and die again from his grave.
At noon, Bamboo Peak people were sitting in the dining hall. Tian Bolis was the last to enter. He sat on the seat and looked at the disciples. When his eyes fell on Shaw Danon, he stopped. Shaw Danon lowered his head. Tian Bolis looked away.
"Yesterday, you all saw it?" Tian Bolis said lightly.
Everyone was silent. Only Xavion smiled: "Yes, master showed his power and punished those two..."
"Bullshit!" Tian BuYi suddenly shouted, his voice shook the whole place, everyone kept quiet out of fear, Tian BuYi angrily said: "Yesterday's matter, you all should have seen the profound cultivation of the Shixiong of other branches, not to mention that Kevern, even the little guy who just entered for three years, actually defeated most of you, ran to Bamboo Peak and acted wildly. Do you know that? "
Everyone was silent. Only Shaw Danon suddenly raised his head.
Tian Bolis said coldly: "Seven Peaks Tournament is coming. You useless people, from today on, all of you should go into closed door training. If you don't come out, I will skin you!"
Everyone's face was bitter, but no one dared to say a word. Hidi carefully asked: "Dad, I will..."
"You too!" Tian Bolis said decisively.
Hidi pursed her lips and was about to speak, but was secretly pulled back by her mother. She turned and looked at Surin. The words that were about to come out of her mouth were swallowed back.
Tian Bolis' voice echoed in Hall of Observed Silence: "From now on, except for seventh who is responsible for food, all of you are not allowed to go out for one and a half years. Go into closed door training, understand?"
...
Just like that, time passed quickly, under the tranquil atmosphere of Big Bamboo Peak, a layer of unprecedented tension enveloped it, all the disciples were concentrating on practising their skills, except for a leisurely yellow dog, a mischievous grey monkey and a bored chef.
