Chapter 404: Fighting against masters and rebelling against disciples
“The strong men in the wilderness have no distinction between genders.”
Xi silently recited this sentence over and over again, feeling that Gu Xu had really hit the mark. In her heart.
Most women in the wilderness have no freedom.
Because people in this era lived a precarious life and the average life span was much shorter than that of later generations. Therefore, they often had to get married in their early teens and at the beginning of menstruation, and spent the rest of their lives getting pregnant again and again. spend.
Xi is reluctant to accept such a fate.
She also wants to take up arms and protect her tribe like men.
She once confided this idea to her grandfather and brother.
But they all found it difficult to understand and said: "Little girl, don't think so wildly."
Because of this, when Gu Xu fell from the sky and showed incomprehensible abilities in front of them , Xi’s first reaction was not to worship him, but to want him to be her teacher.
However, as time went by and she spent time with Gu Xu, she also had some other thoughts about him besides the teacher-student relationship.
"Master, do you dislike me?" After a brief silence, she asked again.
“Why did you say that?”
“You refused too simply.”
“Our relationship was just a pure master-disciple relationship.”
< br>
"But if it's you, I don't mind turning into a husband and wife relationship," Xi said bluntly, "You are better than all the men here, and you are better-looking than them."
Women in ancient times The criteria for choosing a spouse can be said to be very simple. "Strong" is the basic condition, and "good-looking" is a bonus.
Their characters are also very simple. If you like them, you like them, if you don't like them, you don't like them. Whatever you think in your heart, it will be directly reflected in your actions.
As long as two people see each other right, they will go to spend the night in the woods together that day.
She will not be as reserved and reserved as the women of later generations, and she will not have cumbersome and lengthy marriage customs.
"Do you want to deceive the master and destroy the ancestors?"
"No," Xi looked confused, "I just like the master. Why did the master say this?"
Gu Xu He glanced at her still immature body and sighed, "You're too young."
He was not a lolicon.
Xi may have reached the age of marriage in ancient times, but in his eyes, she was still no more than an underage middle school student.
"I will grow up," Xi said seriously, hands on hips, "As long as Master is willing to wait patiently for me for a few years."
Gu Xu suddenly stopped smiling and looked at the girl with stern eyes: "You tonight Have you completed your training tasks? Have you memorized all the instructions I taught you? Did you do it when I asked you to do Zha Mabu?”
The girl was startled by his sudden change of attitude. Said: "I did it...I did it, but it's not finished yet..."
"Then hurry up and do it!" Gu Xu raised his voice and reprimanded, "At such a young age, I think about these messy things all day long. What should I do if something affects my practice?
“My disciples must be strong in their own right. If you become a useless person who can only think randomly and not do his job properly, don't tell others that you were taught by me in the future. ”
Xi never imagined that the always kind and amiable master would be so cruel at times.
"You... don't be harsh on me, I will go practice now."
She hesitated, fearing that the master would no longer want her as his disciple in his anger. .
Then she found an open space next to him and sat cross-legged, closed her eyes, and entered a meditative state.
Gu Xu looked at Xi turning into a quail in front of him, and recalled how Zhao Yan pushed him against the wall and kissed him forcefully like a domineering president, thinking about the two people who looked so similar. , how could the personality gap be so huge.
Then he took out the pen and paper from "Xianyunju" and continued to draw to complete the pattern of "Holy Fire Totem".
......The next morning, Gu Xu finally sketched the last line of the "Holy Fire Totem".
At this time, Xi happened to be standing next to him, looking down at his pen tip moving slowly on the paper, his eyes particularly focused.
The moment Gu Xu put away his pen, a red light penetrated all the strokes on the paper, complementing the rising sun in the eastern sky.
The girl's eyes also lit up.
Through the gorgeous and complicated runes like phoenix feathers, she seemed to have a glimpse of a powerful self.
"So beautiful!" she murmured.
Before Gu Xu could speak, the girl's hands were already on the edge of her top, ready to pull it off.
"What are you doing?" Gu Xu grabbed her arm.
"How can you draw the talisman if you don't take it off?" the girl chirped like a little sparrow. "According to the tradition of our tribe, when every man reaches adulthood, he will stand naked in front of the campfire, and the tribal leader will draw on him. The beast's tattoo marks that he has become a warrior capable of protecting his people."
"But you are a girl."
"Master, you didn't say that girls can do it too. Become a warrior?"
Gu Xu was silent for a while. He wanted to say "I don't want others to see you", but when he said it, he changed to "I'm afraid you will catch a cold."
"My body is in good shape and I never catch cold." The girl curled her lips.
"Xi, be obedient," Gu Xu stood up and reached out to rub the traitor's head, "I will take you to a good place."
…………
A moment later, Following Gu Xu's thought, "Xianyunju" appeared out of thin air among the mountains and forests.
I can only see its carved beams and painted buildings, which are exquisite and elegant, like birds flying on leather and feathers flying.
In the rough and wild painting style of the primitive era, it seems out of place - to use Gu Xu's previous life as an analogy, it is like an alien spacecraft landing on the earth.
Xi looked at this building that did not belong to this era, her eyes widened in surprise, and she looked at Gu Xu with a little more admiration.
"Master, are you really not an immortal?"
"I am really not."
"If you are not an immortal, how can you live in such a beautiful place?"< br>
“In my hometown, many people live in houses like this,” Gu Xu said, “Besides, this is just a magic weapon of mine.”
"Magic weapon, what is that?"
"It is an object with extraordinary power used by practitioners. It is usually used as a weapon, but sometimes it is also used for other purposes, such as living or storing sundries. , like this 'Xianyun Residence'"
Xi showed a longing expression.
"Master, I am also a practitioner now," she looked up at Gu Xu, her beautiful eyes shining brightly in the early morning sun, "Then I will also have my own magic weapon in the future. '?"
"I'll try my best to do something for you before I leave here," Gu Xu pondered for a moment and replied.
"Master is the best."
Xi smiled happily and grabbed Gu Xu's sleeves tighter.
Then follow him up the steps, cross the threshold, and step into "Xianyun Residence".
