A quarter of an hour, half an hour, an hour … Time passed second by second. Elder Xiao, who was originally calm, was so excited that he could no longer sit still. He stood up and stared at Chen Hao.
Time continued to pass …
The sea breeze whistled, setting off monstrous waves. The boat was sometimes thrown into the sky and sometimes submerged by the sea, but every time, it would emerge from the sea with great difficulty.
The majestic mountain became heavier and heavier, as if it wanted to crush Chen Hao into powder!
Everything was like a dream, but in Chen Hao's mind, it was so real. He clenched his teeth and stubbornly held on. There was only one thought in his mind, and that was that he could not die!
For his parents, for his younger siblings, he could not die!
About two hours later, Elder Xiao's figure suddenly flashed and floated to the door like a ghost. Silently, he gently covered the mouth of a girl.
This girl was Xiao Ji Yan. She was Elder Xiao's first disciple!
At this time, it was already eight o 'clock. It was Xiao Ji Yan's daily class time.
Xiao Ji Yan looked at the young man in front of her in surprise. Just from his back, she could not recognize who he was, but she knew what happened to him. This was because she had once experienced the same thing. Although that experience had passed six years ago, it was still deeply etched in her memory. That time, she only lasted for fifteen minutes before collapsing in Elder Xiao's arms.
Time continued to pass.
Xiao Ji Yan's beautiful eyes that were filled with spirituality became more and more shocked.
Three hours passed, and in the blink of an eye, four hours had passed!
At this time, Chen Hao suddenly shouted. A golden light rose from his mind and broke through the dreamlike space!
At the same time, Elder Xiao's figure flashed and supported Chen Hao's falling body.
At this time, Chen Hao finally woke up. He gasped for breath and his clothes were drenched in sweat. He looked at the old man who was holding him in shock. He did not understand what had happened to him. Why did such a strange and mysterious scene appear in his mind?
"Very good, very good. Child, what's your name? I mean, your real name! "
"Ah? It's you? Junior Brother … "Xiao Ji Yan, who had been standing at the door for two hours, finally saw the young man's face. She recognized his delicate and pretty face at a glance.
"You know each other?" Elder Xiao asked curiously.
"Ancestor, of course we know him. He's my Junior Brother. His real name is Chen Hao. His nickname is Tianci, right? " Before Chen Hao could answer, Xiao Jiyan said with a smile. Her beautiful big eyes stared curiously at Chen Hao, as if she had seen something fun. There was envy, admiration, and a trace of pride in her eyes.
"Yes …"
"Little Junior Brother, you're really amazing. You actually managed to hold on for so long. Back then, I only managed to hold on for a little more than ten minutes. But I was a few years younger than you at that time … I'm also very powerful. At the first sight of you, I felt that you were different from others. Hee hee, as expected … "
"Chen Hao, nickname, Tianci … Is this a gift from the Heavens to this Old Man?" Elder Xiao murmured, unable to hide the excitement on his old face.
After Chen Hao looked at the old man, his eyes turned to the angelic girl, Xiao Jiyan, and said, "Senior Sister, just now … what happened to me?"
"It was a test of your aptitude. The Ancestor said that the longer you persist, the better your aptitude will be. You actually managed to hold on for so long. That's really amazing. "Xiao Jiyan said," Right, Ancestor? "
"Huh? Yes … Very good, very good … Chen Hao, you did very well. From today onwards, you and Little Yan will study at my place. "Elder Xiao returned to his senses and said softly with a smile.
Chen Hao hurriedly bowed and said, "Thank you, Sir."
"You can just call me Elder Xiao in the future." Elder Xiao said, "Ji Yan, go get a futon and let's sit down. Chen Hao, you take a seat first. "
"Okay." Xiao Jiyan ran out excitedly. At the age of 13, she would study at Elder Xiao's place every morning. She was lively and active by nature, but although Elder Xiao doted on her, he was very serious when teaching her. Especially when he made her practice a very strange martial art, which was very boring. This made her feel that it was not fun at all. However, now that she had a cute little Junior Brother to accompany her, it would definitely be more interesting in the future. This made Xiao Jiyan very happy.
After a while, Xiao Jiyan hugged a futon and sat next to Chen Hao.
"Are you hungry?" Elder Xiao looked at Chen Hao with concern and asked. From six in the morning until now, Chen Hao had persisted for a total of four hours, even delaying breakfast time in the middle.
"I'm not hungry, Elder Xiao." As soon as Chen Hao finished speaking, his stomach failed to live up to his expectations and growled. However, this degree of hunger was nothing to Chen Hao.
"Hehe, Ancestor, I'm hungry …" Xiao Jiyan cutely smiled at Chen Hao, then turned around and looked at Elder Xiao with a pitiful look. At the same time, her small hand gently pinched Chen Hao's waist.
Chen Hao was puzzled.
"Girl, it's not good to eat too much of that thing." Elder Xiao said as he took out an exquisite jade box from under the table and gently opened it.
Immediately, a strong fruity fragrance wafted out from within. Chen Hao saw that the jade box actually contained a few fruits that he had never seen before. The fruits were slightly bigger than walnuts, flat and transparent like crystal grapes, but the color was translucent with a trace of milky white.
Xiao Jiyan blinked her big eyes and swallowed a mouthful of saliva. Even Chen Hao had a strong impulse to swallow the fruit the moment he saw it. It didn't seem to be just to fill his stomach, as if something was attracting him.
"This is the Breeze Fruit. It takes a hundred years for this tree to grow, then ten years to flower and ten years to bear fruit. Each tree can produce a maximum of one hundred fruits at a time. Our Xiao Family only has one. " Elder Xiao said softly, "Although this fruit is only a Level 2 Spirit Herb, it has a special effect of tempering the body. It's not comparable to ordinary Level 2 Spirit Herbs. You will understand this in the future …"
Elder Xiao said as he took out two fruits from the box and handed one to Chen Hao, "This is for you."
"No, no, Elder Xiao, I … I'm not hungry." Chen Hao hurriedly refused. Although Chen Hao hadn't seen much of the world, he knew that this fruit was extremely precious from Elder Xiao's description. Just the fact that it could be called a Spirit Herb meant that ginseng, bird's nest, and so on could not be compared to it. Not to mention that it was a Level 2 Spirit Herb with a special effect … How could he accept such a precious thing?
"Junior Brother, it's very delicious. Eat it. You don't have to be polite with the Ancestor. Hehe … "Xiao Jiyan directly took the other fruit from Elder Xiao's hand and put it in front of her nose. After smelling it deeply, she gently took a bite and tasted it carefully with an intoxicated look on her face.
Elder Xiao looked at Chen Hao with a trace of appreciation in his eyes and said softly, "Eat it. Although the Breeze Fruit is precious, you are qualified to enjoy it with your aptitude. It's also beneficial to your cultivation. You are my disciple and this is what I hope to see. Eat it. "
"This … Thank you, Elder Xiao." Chen Hao said gratefully and bowed deeply to Elder Xiao. He could see Elder Xiao's sincerity and concern.
After watching Chen Hao eat, Elder Xiao said, "Chen Hao, I will now teach you a set of Cultivation Technique. Once you learn this Cultivation Technique, you won't need to cultivate any of the Xiao Family's internal cultivation techniques and you are not allowed to tell anyone about it. Although the progress of this Cultivation Technique is relatively slow, you will know its benefits in the future. Therefore, from today onwards, you must cultivate for at least two hours every day. The first few months will be more painful … "
"Cultivation Technique?" Chen Hao's eyes suddenly widened and a strong and persistent light flashed in his eyes. At this time, any Cultivation Technique would have a strong attraction to Chen Hao. He originally thought that it would be impossible for him to learn any of the Xiao Family's Martial Arts within three months. He didn't expect that Elder Xiao, who had decided to teach him how to read and write, would teach him a Cultivation Technique first. This made Chen Hao excited.
Elder Xiao smiled and said, "This Cultivation Technique is called Longevity Secret Art, a Level 7 Cultivation Technique …"
