My Practice Routine With My Confused Female Apprentice

The fireworks exploded in the night sky, and the sudden white light illuminated Qin Ran on the barren hill.

On this snowy night, Li Shiyin was setting off fireworks, and Qin Ran was watching the fireworks.

What Li Shiyin set off was her own family's fireworks. In her own backyard, together with her big brother, they ignited gorgeous fireworks.

But Qin Ran watched the fireworks from other people's houses. He was outside the city, in the mountains, in the dark, alone, drenched in the rain, watching the fireworks lit up in other people's night sky.

He is in the outskirts of Qingyuan City, while his parents in this life are in Qingyuan City.

Qin Ran is a person with a strong sense of ritual. In this world, even if he lives alone, he will still celebrate the traditional festivals of his previous life. He will pay homage to his master on Ching Ming Festival; make rice dumplings on Dragon Boat Festival; burn paper money on Hungry Ghost Festival; make moon cakes on Mid-Autumn Festival; and set off firecrackers on New Year’s Eve.

He remembered the festivals in his previous life, but... he always celebrated the festivals alone.

In fact, his relatives in this life are still there, both parents are in Qingyuan City, very close to Daojianmen. He can run several times a day if he wants. It's just hard to tell what emotion he has for them.

He went up to the mountain to practice at a very young age, and he should have been only five years old at that time, plus he was originally a lonely soul wandering in Otherworld. How can he be asked to have feelings for his parents in this world.

Although he pays attention to them, he also pushes his hands secretly to make their life better. However, he never met them again.

If Li Shiyin hadn't said to go home to celebrate the New Year, maybe he wouldn't have thought of coming here to "go home" on the day of the New Year.

"Home" is in the city, but standing here at this moment, he feels the loneliness from the whole world. This loneliness has nothing to do with the cultivator and the mortal, but the incompatibility between the world and him, between him and the world.

Chinese New Year... the world is extremely lively, but those excitement has nothing to do with him.

It rained all night, and Qin Ran, a water mage, was drenched thoroughly by the cold rain. Until dawn, he did not enter Qingyuan City.

When a little light appeared in the east, making this world a little bit brighter, he turned and left, away from Qingyuan City.

Qin Ran found the direction of Dao Jianmen, and walked back to Danfeng step by step, like a mortal. Maybe...that was his home.

From Qingyuan to Daojianmen, if you use the cultivator method, or fly or escape, you will arrive in a blink of an eye, but if you walk like a mortal, Qin Ran walked for more than ten days.

He walked step by step, the muddy road, the thorny road, the rocky road, the tall trees, the boulders, the river, and the road without a road. The clothes are all torn, and the shoes on the feet are broken. He waded barefoot through mud, brambles, gravel, and rivers.

He didn't know why he took such a trip, but he just walked like this... It's like Transcend Tribulation is needed on the way of spiritual practice; "Transcend Tribulation" is also needed to find a home and a spiritual destination.

On the way, he saw a hunter go into the mountains alone regardless of the New Year and the cold; he saw a skinny and pale old woman begging by the roadside; he saw birds and beasts looming in the jungle by the roadside; Dead people; he saw corpses and bones in the jungle...

He sees all beings in the world. It turns out that no matter which world or era you are in, the ordinary people at the bottom are the same.

All living beings suffer.

New Year is the end of the old, a new beginning, a sign that life is getting better, a new hope for life, and... a happy thing. It should be a happy thing.

However, what does this New Year have to do with these suffering beings? What does it have to do with him, Qin Ran?

Qin Ran walked hundreds of miles in the rain, and walked back to Daojianmen just like the old woman who staggered and begged in the rain.

He looked up at the mountain gate of Dao Jianmen, and thought to himself, what is the difference between him in the practice world and ordinary people in The Mortal Realm? It is no different from an old woman who wanders and begs.

Because of his sloppy appearance, he was also chased away by villains with the same sinister heart... Daojianmen, a place of immortality, should stay away from beggars and beggars.

Therefore, there is no difference between human beings and immortals.

He didn't pursue the Outer Sect disciple's crimes, he just took out the token, opened the formation channel and entered the Daojian Gate.

Walking to Danfeng, Qin Ran raised his head to look at the mist formed by the mountain guard formation outside Danfeng, which was the formation he built bit by bit by himself. Danfeng was originally his home in the Otherworld.

But……

When he got here, he realized that maybe a person's home is not a specific place, but a certain person.

"Ugh!"

He sighed and waved open the formation.

Then he goes through the formation channel...

Saw that person.

I don't know when it stopped raining. On the lawn in front of Danfeng's cabin, there are two silhouettes, one red and one white, chasing and playing. The red one is Li Shiyin in red, and the white one is chasing wind in white.

These two guys can't live in peace if they don't make a fuss every day.

Qin Ran walked through the formation and stood in front of the lawn looking at the two of them.

"Master?" Li Shiyin was the first to notice that Qin Ran was back. She rushed over and wanted to give Qin Ran a bear hug excitedly, but the embarrassment on Qin Ran made her stop abruptly, "Master! How did you become like this?" gone?"

She added, "It's the same as Li Shiwen."

Chasing Feng followed and ran over, sniffing around Qin Ran, shaking his head uncontrollably: "Dad, are you being bullied?"

Qin Ran held down the head of Maomao who was spinning around in the wind, looked at Li Shiyin, laughed, and asked, "When did you come back?"

"I've been back for a few days!" Li Shiyin replied, "I'll be back after the Chinese New Year!"

She looked at Qin Ran, and suddenly pinched her hands back and forth on the corners of her clothes, and finally she looked shy like a girl. She lowered her head and whispered, "Who knows, master, you are not in Danfeng."

The girl's shyness was too alluring, Qin Ran wanted to go forward and hold her in his arms, and take pity on her, but he didn't, he held back with great perseverance.

He looked away and replied, "I walked around."

Upon hearing this, Li Shiyin looked at Qin Ran's feet and found that Qin Ran's shoes were all torn, with several toes protruding from the upper.

She then took out two pairs of shoes from the Qiankun bag and handed them to Qin Ran, and said in a softer voice, "Master will give you the shoes."

The shoes were given to her by Yang Yanqi before she left home, and Yang Yanqi told her: "This is the custom on my mother's side. If you like a boy, you should give him shoes, so that he won't be able to walk out of your palm."

This is a token, this is a show of love.

Qin Ran didn't know, he thought it was an ordinary gift, accepted it with a smile, and said, "Thank you."

Hearing the news of Qin Ran's return, Long Qiqi got out of the shed, looked this way, saw Li Shiyin's appearance, frowned and asked, "Why is Li Shiyin chirping today?"

The family of three walked towards the cabin. Qin Ran raised his head and found the sky that had been cloudy, rainy or snowy for more than a month. Finally, the dark clouds receded and the sun appeared on the horizon.

The new year is here, and the new year is here.
