C14 Evening conversations

My dad wiped his mouth and said, "pottery master, from now on, you treat him as your own son. What you teach, beat him up, don't be soft-hearted. If you don't want to, then tell me, if he dares to disrespect you, don't break his legs!"

After my master heard my father's words, he chuckled. It was unknown what he was thinking in his heart.

In short, this staff that my master gave me on my birthday really saved my life in the days to come.

After eating, my master also left my parents behind, saying that he wanted to talk about something with them, and told me to bring my sister and Fatty back to the village first.

On the way back to the mountain with Fatty and my sister, Fatty accidentally mentioned something to me. He asked me if I had ever been to the Coiled Snake Valley, and I said that I had often gone there.

Fatty then asked me what skills Master and I had learned. I shook my head and told him about my Master's skills, but up till now, I hadn't even touched a hair on my head.

After Fatty heard my words, his mouth moved, he wanted to say something, but he did not open his mouth. Other than training in the mountains with my master, I normally go down the mountains to eat with him, although I do not dare to say that I have learnt anything in the mortal world, but I did learn a little about observing the situation. Seeing Fatty like this, and knowing that he had something to say, Fatty said: "Fatty, if you have anything to say, just say it.

"Who the hell would dare to bully him? It was his dad who was in trouble." said my sister.

"Uncle Wang? What happened to him? "

Just last week, a few people suddenly came to our village and said that they were some cadres from the county, and they also had that tag and said that we had some kind of resource development here and wanted to go into the mountain, and at that time, they asked my father to lead the way, and even gave them a hundred dollars, and that was real money, and my father only agreed to that after a few days, and there was no news about it. At that time, those people said that it was in the direction of the Coiled Snake Valley, and you know, that my father went there, but in order to change my family's life, so the villagers didn't dare to find him.

I have followed my master for a few years, and it is true that he is a person with true ability, but before I said this, other than learning some fist and foot techniques and the Daoist scriptures, he did not teach me anything about capturing ghosts, exterminating demons, or divining fate. He had always said that the time had not come, and he did not know when it would be.

I asked Fatty why didn't he say it when he was eating, but this brat said that he was too busy eating that time that he forgot about it.

When I heard this, I really wanted to whip Fatty's father twice for him. I can forget about my own father's matter.

But at this moment, we are almost back to the village, so I told him not to be anxious. Since he's from the province, maybe he's here to investigate something, so he should be fine.

Just like this, after sending Fatty home, I went to see my friends before returning to the mountain.

After they returned to the cave, their master and their parents were not there, so it was probably my master who sent them down the mountain. There are quite a few mountain paths, and Master has already gone through many array formations, so he doesn't dare let my parents go there alone.

In short, in my memory, this birthday is the most unforgettable day of my life. The family gathered together, enjoying the moment, and my master also gave me a stick. Although I couldn't understand how this thing worked at that time, I knew that what my master gave me was definitely beneficial to me.

I passed my eleventh birthday like this, and that night, my master didn't supervise me in my studies, but sat by the fire with me, saying that he wanted to talk about something with me.

"Qing Waer, how was your birthday?"

His Master asked as she smoked.

"En, it's pretty good. This is the first time that I've had such a good birthday. That cake sure is delicious."

"Son of a bitch, you only know how to eat, you can't have any ambition."

Master scolded me.

I said with a bit of grievance, "Master, you were the one who asked. Furthermore, the cake was already delicious, and I have never eaten it before, so didn't you say that only the children in the city can eat it? For a mountain kid like me, isn't that a delicacy?

Qing Waer, you still remember what I told you three years ago, when I brought you up the mountain. Your physique is not that of an ordinary person, not to mention that you are a Heavenly Demon Solitary Star, and you are also a demon of the tenth reincarnation cycle. This is also the reason why the water ghost came to find you, for those evildoers, your body is just like a good cultivation cauldron. Because that is the body that the Demon Sovereign had set his eyes on a thousand years ago.

I nodded and said I did. You also said that after I turned sixteen, I would try to leave home as far away as possible. During the year, I couldn't return home more than three times, and I couldn't stay home more than twenty-four days at a time.

His Master nodded. "That's right. That's what your parents and I were talking about at noon. We're leaving after sixteen because you're too good at provoking people."

"But, Master, is that Demon Lord, really that powerful?" I asked doubtfully.

"Of course."

The master put out the smoke and said, "Do you still remember the first time you saw that image of Sky Sovereign Ling-Bao Hall? At that time, you were very scared, but that was not your own consciousness, but the consciousness of the Demon Lord. A thousand years ago, he was scattered by the Three Purities of my Dao Sect, and he should have died a long time ago, but for some reason, there is a trace of demonic intent in your body.

"Master."

I was a little speechless. "Then, what if one day this Demon Lord controls me? Isn't that amazing?"

"Very powerful."

"How powerful is it?"

"I, along with the Mount Mao, the Green City Mountain, and even the entire circle of cultivators, will not be a match for him."

"So I can actually be this powerful."

"Pah!"

Master's smoke stick fell on my head all of a sudden, so painful that I almost cried.

"Son of a dog, you don't want to be good all the time, but you still want to become a demon. Which demon will have a good ending?" "However, hmph, if one day you are controlled by that thing, I will definitely clean up the sect and kill both of you. How can I allow you to harm others?"

"Master, I didn't say I would!"

"Brat, you still dare to talk back?" As my Master said this, she moved as if she was about to hit me. Fortunately, I reacted quickly and jumped away.

My master didn't hit me. She took back her stick and put some tobacco into it. She lit up a few mouthfuls of smoke and said, "Come, sit down."
