Chapter Eleven He Had a Home

  While chatting happily with four kids, the giant bell on top of the mountain temple rang "Dong~ Dong~ Dong~" three times in a row!

  At this time, Leng Hanming, with a dignified and elegant demeanor, walked over with a difficult expression, handed Xiaodou a small box. Just as Xiaodou was stunned and at a loss, Leng Hanming was pulled away by a man in his thirties carrying a sword to the main hall!

  At the same time, several outstanding children were suddenly taken away by flying figures to a grand hall in the distance. Xiao Dou's heart was filled with sadness as he quickly hid the small box in his bosom and silently watched Lao Da disappear into the distance. He knew that these children were all prodigies, favored by the heavens, and would one day stand out among their peers, while he himself could only struggle to keep up with Lao Da's footsteps.

  After the bell rang, hundreds of masters suddenly flew out of the grand hall. In an instant, they stood neatly on the square, with only ten meters between each person's front, back, left and right, without any difference, showing off their strength!

  The children looked up with excitement, here were some with kind faces, some with cow noses, some with three divine swords on their backs, and some with beards who smiled lightly. Even some of them gave food to the children. In short, the expressions of these people now are extremely close to the children, and in front of these masters, a group of children slowly gathered, quarreling over who would recognize those good people as their masters!

  Reluctantly bidding farewell to Xiaoxiao and Xiaomei, Shuixian took Xiaodou to stroll around the square for a long time, finally spotting in a corner a giant with furrowed brows and a fierce stare, broad shoulders and a round waist, five big and three thick, two meters tall!

  This guy, with a face so fierce, who would worship him as a teacher! With the demeanor of a bear, he was still angry, being pushed by Shuisheng, Xiaodou walked to his side with a timid face, and this giant immediately picked up Xiaodou like a little monkey and burst into loud laughter.

  "Kid, you want to make me your master, huh? Alright, alright, I'll accept it since you have good taste. Quickly kowtow and acknowledge me as your master... Hey, don't cry, no need to kneel either. Anyway, I never cared about that sort of thing. From now on, kid, you don't have to kneel to anyone, not even heaven, earth, parents, or me! Haha... Did you guys see that? Who said nobody would make me their master? With my charisma, how could nobody want me as their master? Hahaha..."

  All the little kids and a group of masters looked at Xiaodou with sympathetic eyes, and at Juhann with disdainful eyes. Just then, a super handsome girl led a large group of girls to hurry over, suddenly collectively knelt down and shouted in unison:

  "Master Yuan Fei is above, disciples Yun Rui Yao, Yun Xiao Qiao, Zhao Kai, Li Tongtong, Lu Ning, Wang Xiaona... pay respects to the master!"

  This effect was incredible, triggering a chain reaction, with over 100 children from all around rushing to come and pay homage to the giant as their master!

  Xiao Dou let out a loud sigh in his heart, feeling that he finally had someone to accompany him. But instead of laughing and showing off, his master scrunched up his thick eyebrows and said in an extremely loud voice:

  "Ah~ They're all descendants of families that have been at odds with the Ghost Gate Sect's various branches, and now they're all looking for me to take care of them? I'm still wondering who's going to protect me instead! Hmm~ What are you little rascals gathering around for? Grandma's bear, a bunch of little perverts, really, wherever there's a pretty girl, you'll all flock to her! Ahh~ Is my cave going to become some kind of romantic getaway in the future? No way..."

  A burst of unbridled scolding, in the end they had no choice but to listen to their master and accept education from these young disciples!

  The benevolent old Taoist with a white beard in front of the main hall said: "The ceremony of paying respects to the master has come to an end, please ask all fellow Taoists to return and teach their disciples. Don't remember that they are still young children, at the beginning you must be good to them, take care of them well. The old Taoist's words are exhausted here, infinite longevity Buddha~"

  Lao Dao had just finished speaking, and Xiao Dou suddenly felt dizzy, as if he had entered a space. In the blink of an eye, he was already in a large mountain cave with a huge area, where Master Giant and hundreds of children were present.

  And this group of kids surrounded the giant, chattering excitedly and saying:

  "Wow, it's the art of minor displacement, used by our master, so awesome! Master, you are truly great! Hmm, master, your little disciple really admires you... Oh, master, since I was young and had no parents, please be my godfather... Master is so handsome, master is so cool..."

  "Huge Han took a deep breath and said in a slow, loud voice: 'You monkey kids, stop flattering me. Outside the four mountains and valleys, find your own place to settle down and cultivate. The kitchen will have outer door disciples from the valley sending food, you can also cook for yourself, just eat and take care of your life. If you want to practice and cultivate, go to the radiant cliff in the north mountain valley, there is a method there, figure it out yourself, don't ask me, I won't know either. Besides, I'm about to leave, we'll never meet again, goodbye!'"

  "Whoosh!" The giant vanished in the blink of an eye and wasn't seen again for many years...

  As soon as Master left, Xiao Dou was immediately surrounded by many children as — Big Brother! No choice, who made him enter the door one minute earlier?

  The little bean-like organization on the hard skin of the head stood in line, forming a queue with Second Sister, Third Brother, Fourth Brother, Fifth Sister...

  Then lead everyone into the valley to divide the training grounds, and finally divide the 223 younger brothers in the valley into 22 small teams.

  The men and women were paired up, their tasks were to cook and stand guard, this arrangement was very relaxed, that is to say they only had two days of work every twenty-two days, so as to facilitate their cultivation. The remaining three people were the top three senior brothers and sisters, who naturally took turns on the outside, while the three of them, Xiao Dou was in charge of scouting the guard post, receiving guests from the sect, Yun Rui Yao and Yun Xiao Qiao two sisters were in charge of cooking food and daily life reconnaissance.

  After everything was arranged properly, everyone parted ways and returned to their own little territory to tidy up!

  And Xiao Dou rushed even more urgently, running all the way to his own allocated training ground.

  Under a natural huge stone slab, there is only a hole with a height of more than one foot, and clear water flows out beside it. The surrounding area is lush and green, with a beautiful mountain and river scenery.

  Immediately prostrate and crawl forward in a chaotic scramble, in this small cave at the foot of the mountain. After crawling out for over ten meters, suddenly a new view unfolded before my eyes, and with one glance I could see the entire grandeur of the inner valley of the great mountain!

  Surrounded by steep cliffs, with only a small opening behind and below, the surroundings are divided into neat and tidy small fields, but paradoxically overgrown with wild grass. In front of me is a simple and elegant thatched cottage, under which there is also a wooden platform, truly a great place to enjoy the rain!

  Behind the thatched hut is a small backyard surrounded by a fence, with several fruit trees planted. Walking forward a few steps, you can clearly see the source of the stream flowing out of the valley, which is a small waterfall gushing out from a pure mountain spring in the mountain ravine, flowing into a clear and calm small pool below, and then flowing out of the valley. Under the warm sunlight shining from above, what a purely beautiful little world!

  At first, I was too embarrassed to want it, but then I found out that my junior brothers and sisters were disdainful of the cave entrance being unrefined and didn't want it, so as the eldest senior brother, I took on the responsibility and firmly accepted it!

  When Xiaodou was excited and trembling, he gently pushed open the small door of the thatched hut. In front of him was a large bed, a four-person tea table, a set of tea utensils covered with cloth, a writing desk and chair, a complete set of stationery, a bookcase filled with books, a wardrobe with a full set of bedding... some simple household items, a simple - little home!

  Xiao Dou cried, he squatted on the ground and wailed loudly, crying with abandon, tears streaming down his face! Home! He had a home now! For a child who had been sold from one place to another since childhood, home was a kind of sentiment that couldn't be described! He loved it, he loved everything here, even, he could use his life to protect this place!

  While still sniffling, Xiaodou took the bedding out of the closet and spread it on the bed, then neatly put away her own clothes. She then fetched water in a basin and used a cloth to wipe down the entire small room until it was spotless.

  Looking at the clean little house and the dirty self, I couldn't help but burst out laughing, ran to the edge of the pond and jumped in with a splash, using what I thought was my coolest swimming pose - dog paddle, swimming around.

  After washing the bath, he washed his clothes clean and returned to the small house with a bare butt to change clothes. Then, he lay comfortably on the big bed and slept for a long time.

  However, this sleep was too beautiful, so beautiful that it's a bit strange. The innate divine skill actually ran several large cycles in the dream under the drive of an unparalleled powerful force, equivalent to his bitter practice for several hours. What's going on? Xiaodou, who had 12 years of Taoist practice and power, sat on the bed early in the morning, thinking dazedly.

  Until a loud voice shouted at the entrance of Xiaogu: "Big Brother Master, it's time for breakfast, everyone is waiting for you, come quickly!"

  Xiao Dou felt embarrassed upon hearing this, hastily put on his clothes and rushed towards the valley outside. However, when he reached the entrance of the cave, he couldn't help but furrow his brow.

  If I keep getting dirty like this, my clothes will get stained again. That's not befitting of a senior brother. How can I have the nerve to sit at the same table with several girls and eat with them when I'm so dirty?

  Worrying, I suddenly saw two small iron rails placed casually under the mountain wall, and a flatbed trolley!

  Haha, it turned out that the predecessors had a wonderful plan. With Xiaodou's strength, he quickly laid down the track and slid down the hill in a wheelbarrow. Then, following a junior brother, he rushed to the not-too-crowded cafeteria, smiled apologetically, and ate his first breakfast with everyone!

  Xiao Dou, as the eldest senior brother, took charge of organizing everyone and they all went to Motian Cliff to cultivate.

  After greeting everyone, he looked up and was greatly disappointed. On the wall were not the Nine Suns Divine Art, but various five-element minor spells that Shuixian had never taught him, as well as some strange moves left behind by his seniors. Most of them were useless!

  Xiao Dou let out a long sigh and immediately calmed his mind, sat cross-legged on the ground, and began to circulate his innate divine power, silently starting his cultivation.

  And this time the cultivation is different from before, a magical and scorching aura full of hope, justice, and joyful sunshine permeates throughout the body's major acupoints. Every time it passes through an already opened major acupoint by the Xiantian divine technique, it's like a million-strong army gaining new strength to continue charging forward, growing more courageous with each battle, invincible wherever they go!

  It's really too interesting, hateful, if it wasn't for his junior brothers and sisters pulling him to eat, he would have continued to cultivate and play.

  In front of a group of shocked and speechless fellow disciples, he devoured eight bowls of rice at the dinner table, then ran to continue his cultivation in the afternoon, and was carried back for dinner in the evening.

  Fainted! Little brothers and sisters are so happy to think of having dinner with big brother - it's too delicious!
