Xiao Yan was a little conflicted. His heart was inclined to choose the second side quest. Compared to Yao Chen who did not have much interaction with him, he wanted to acknowledge the uncle, whose strength he could not detect, as his teacher more. After all, he had been friends with the uncle for nearly seven years. If he could successfully acknowledge the uncle as his teacher, the master-disciple relationship would be a little more harmonious.
"But the difficulty of the second side mission is unknown. In other words, it might be easy to complete, or it might not be possible at all. This is a gamble!"
Xiao Yan's face was a little anxious. Between the two side missions, which one should he choose?
Xiao Yan found it difficult to choose between the two side missions. At this time, Cheng Hao, who was lying on the Tree of Enlightenment, was also full of curiosity. He wanted to see what choice Xiao Yan would make.
"System, guess which side mission Xiao Yan will choose?" Cheng Hao asked in his mind with a smile.
"If he is a rational and mature person, he will choose the first side mission. After all, the difficulty of this mission is very low. In other words, as long as he accepts the mission, he will be able to become the disciple. Compared to the unpredictable outcome of the second side mission, this is more practical." The System's voice sounded in Cheng Hao's mind.
"So, you think Xiao Yan will choose the first side mission?"
"No, I think Xiao Yan will choose the second side mission!" The System's voice was very calm, but the answer it gave was very certain.
"Oh? Why is that? "
"According to my observation and analysis over the years, I think Xiao Yan is still some distance away from being rational and mature. He is more like a hot-blooded, arrogant teenager. Although his arrogance has been worn down a lot in the past year, my evaluation of him will not change. In his bones, he still has the potential to be a teenager!"
"For a teenager with eighth-grade syndrome, before he makes a decision, the influence of his emotions far surpasses his rationality. One is Yao Chen, whom he has never met, and the other is the uncle he has been with for seven years. Master, who do you think he will choose? "
Cheng Hao nodded. He had to admit that the system's analysis was spot on. It had grasped Xiao Yan's personality just right. The possibility of him choosing the second side mission was indeed far greater than the first side mission.
.....
"I choose the second mission!" On the other side, Xiao Yan finally chose the second side mission after a difficult decision. Within three days, he had to become Cheng Hao's disciple.
"Since I can only choose one teacher, why don't I go all out and choose a teacher that I'm familiar with and who is stronger? Anyway, I'm already a half-cripple. Even if I fail the mission, there's nothing to lose! "
It had to be said that the system's analysis of Xiao Yan was spot on. It had a clear understanding of his personality. Just as he expected, the other party had chosen the second side mission.
"System, in that case, can you analyze whether or not I will accept Xiao Yan as my disciple?" Cheng Hao asked with a smile.
"If Master can stay in this world for a few thousand years, there's a high chance that you will accept Xiao Yan as your disciple. It's obvious that Master thinks highly of him. But now that Master only has a dozen years left in this world, there's no way to predict. After all, Master's personality is not as obvious as Xiao Yan's. Rationality and emotions coexist. It's hard to predict what decision you will make next. "
"Hehe, you've learned to be vague." Cheng Hao smiled. "But to be honest, I haven't decided whether or not to accept him as my disciple!"
"If Master hasn't decided, why don't you give the choice to Xiao Yan himself?" The system suggested.
Cheng Hao thought for a while, then nodded. This was a good suggestion.
.....
It was a quiet night. Cheng Hao laid on the Enlightenment Tea Tree for the whole night and did not get up. As for Xiao Yan, who was preparing to acknowledge him as his master, he stayed under the tree and quietly waited for him to wake up.
The next morning, the warm sun shone through the branches and leaves and fell on Cheng Hao's face. He got up and stretched. Then, he jumped down from the tree trunk and landed not far from Xiao Yan.
"Xiao Yan, why are you here so early in the morning? Did someone in the family make you angry again? "
Eyeing Cheng Hao's usual casual and free smile, Xiao Yan felt a little absent-minded. Not long ago, he had also fantasized that his uncle was a top expert who lived in seclusion. However, as time slowly flowed by, his heart had repeatedly dispelled this thought. Who would have thought that when he no longer held any hope, he would suddenly realize that his initial guess was actually correct.
He searched and searched, and in the end, the final answer was right beside him. The adventure was right in front of him, but he never grasped it.
"Yesterday, in the family's Dou Qi test, I dropped again!"
Xiao Yan's expression was normal as he recounted the scene of yesterday's test. It was as if the person who was ridiculed and ridiculed was not him.
After listening to Xiao Yan's narration, Cheng Hao patted his shoulder and said, "People are like this. There are few who offer help in times of need, and there are many who hit a person when he is down. Cherish your little girlfriend. She is stronger than you, but she still has the same feelings for you. This is very rare!"
"Yes, there are few who offer help in times of need. Now that I am in trouble, uncle, can you give me a hand?"
"Uncle, I am just an ordinary person. How can I give you a hand?" Cheng Hao casually plucked two tea leaves from the tea tree and placed them into the teapot on the stone table. Then, he turned his head and looked at Xiao Yan. "Do you want to drink some tea? Oh, right, the taste of this tea, you don't seem to like it. "
"Yes, uncle's tea, I definitely want to drink it!" Xiao Yan was stunned. Then, he quickly ran to the front of the thatched hut and lit the fire to boil water. Compared to before, he was much more attentive.
.....
"I say, Xiao Yan-Zi, tell me, how do you want uncle to help you?" Cheng Hao asked with a smile as he drank the tea in the cup.
"Uncle … can I be your disciple?" Xiao Yan frowned as he swallowed the tea in his mouth and slowly opened his mouth. To be honest, he was really not used to the taste of the tea leaves.
"Be my disciple? What can you learn from me? Learn to live in seclusion in the mountains, or learn to sleep in? " Cheng Hao chuckled. He lifted the teapot and poured tea into his own cup. At the same time, he also filled Xiao Yan's cup.
"As long as I can be uncle's disciple, I will learn whatever uncle wants me to learn. I will do whatever uncle wants me to do!" Xiao Yan's expression was unprecedentedly firm. He drank the tea in the cup in one gulp. Then, his eyes revealed a pleading expression. "Uncle, please help Xiao Yan!"
"You will do whatever I ask you to do? If I ask you to jump off a cliff, will you jump? "Cheng Hao casually asked.
"As long as uncle is willing to accept me as your disciple, I am willing to jump off a cliff!" Xiao Yan nodded heavily. "If you dare to accept me as your disciple, I will dare to jump!"
"If you dare to jump, I will dare to accept you!" Cheng Hao was also amused by this little guy and casually added.
"Okay, uncle, you said it. You can't go back on your words!"
