"A normal person!"
"But it only makes you look like a normal person. Your physical constitution is still that of a zombie, unless you achieve success in your cultivation and transform from a corpse into an immortal."
"Yes! I will work hard in my cultivation!"
Qi Qi looked up at him, her eyes sparkling. Her expression and gaze were much more lively than before.
"But Master is amazing too!"
Xia Zhi smiled and shook his head.
"Okay, let's go back."
"it is good!"
--
In front of the small wooden house in the distance, Xia Ci put down the [super telescope] she was using to peek, looking at it with a strange expression.
Xia Zhen, standing nearby, asked with some curiosity, "Why do you look like that? What are your cousin and Qi Qi doing out there?"
"He and her... I can't say..."
"what?"
"I can read lips, you know that, right?"
"How would I know? But you are the Lord of Wisdom, so it's not surprising that you know a little about everything."
"So, I just read Qiqi's lips and found that she seemed to keep calling out 'cousin'... 'master'..."
"what?"
Xia Zhen fell silent.
"Master?"
"Ah."
"Isn't that the same as Xiangling?"
"It's different. Xiangling formally became an apprentice and was served tea, but Qiqi didn't go through those formalities. Her cousin just patted her head."
"So, this is an improper apprenticeship?"
"Not really. After all, there's a poem in my hometown that goes something like, 'An immortal touched my head, and I received eternal life.' That's roughly the idea."
"There's such a thing as Mount Sumeru?"
Xia Ci looked at her best friend as if she were an idiot.
"What Sumeru? I'm talking about my and my cousin's hometown, another world."
"..."
Xia Zhen was speechless.
At this moment, Xia Zhi returned with Qi Qi.
What are you two doing standing outside?
"Wait for you."
"Yes, it's so late, and you still went out. I was worried about you."
"Is it……"
Xia Zhi pondered for a moment, then seemed to realize something, and his expression turned somewhat suspicious.
"Were you guys just spying on me and Qiqi with Yaoyao's binoculars?"
"How can it be!"
"Cousin, how could you slander someone's innocence like this!"
"Then you two stay here and don't move around. I'll go ask Yao Yao if she has the binoculars."
"Hey!"
"what happened?"
"The telescope is indeed here with us."
"You still say you didn't peek!"
"You might not believe it, cousin, but we were actually looking at the stars just now."
"Is it……"
"Uh-huh!"
"So what did you see?"
"I saw something very scary."
"?"
Xia Ci's expression suddenly turned serious.
"cousin."
"what happened again?"
"Don't be surprised by what I'm about to tell you."
"Oh, go ahead."
Xia Ci leaned close to his ear and whispered, "The starry sky of Teyvat is actually an illusion."
?
Xia Zhi was stunned for a moment.
"fake?"
"Ah."
Xia Zhi thought of something.
"So, everyone's fate is predetermined like this?"
"My cousin is really smart."
"Is the law of nature really that powerful?"
"This... oh well..."
"Alright, alright, I know, I won't ask anymore. Anyway, there's no place for me in the starry sky... Don't peek at me like that anymore, or I'll tell Yao Yao not to let you play with me."
"Sigh! Okay..."
Back to the cabin.
Everyone else looked at Qiqi with some curiosity.
"Qiqi, what were you doing going out with the boss just now?"
"Why do I feel like Qiqi is a little different?"
"I also have this feeling!"
"It seems like your expressions are more varied?"
Xia Zhi coughed and said, "It's like this, I just took Qi Qi out to ask if she would like to learn medicine from me."
"Studying medicine?"
"As you all know, I have some medical knowledge. I have been teaching Qiqi to identify herbs and medicines, and I found that she does have a talent for it. She also completed the assignment of making hand cream very well, so I thought I would take her as my apprentice."
"apprentice!!!"
Qi Qi blushed slightly, a shy expression she rarely showed before.
"what?"
Xia Zhi turned to the dazed Xiang Ling: "Xiang Ling."
"Master?"
"You are the senior sister, so you should take good care of junior sister Qiqi from now on."
"Oh well!"
The other girls looked at Qiqi, who was looking down and seemed a little embarrassed, with varying expressions.
For example, Ying'er.
Like Qiqi, Xia Zhi had been teaching her about fragrances, and the hand cream assignment was something she and Qiqi did together, and she did a great job.
But now Qiqi has become the boss's apprentice, while she hasn't.
She still had some strange feelings about her.
Although she had no intention of becoming the boss's apprentice before this.
Ying'er pursed her lips.
Master...
