There is something in my mouth

This is probably the so-called timidity of being close to home.

Back then, when Wu Shi woke up from a deep sleep, he became Fang Tanxu's apprentice in a daze before he understood the situation.Although there were many chances, it was the first time he felt the friendship of his teacher, and in the past countless lonely years, he had dreamed of such a warm and lively scene many times, but every time he woke up from the dream, he could only Can face the lonely and desolate land.

The time they spent together as masters and apprentices was only a few hundred years, which was only a fraction of Wu Shi's long life, but the feelings and experiences they brought were stronger than most of the past.

Among other things, the most basic point is that he didn't realize that being an otaku can be so fun until he became a disciple of his master.Where is it like when I was trapped in a nowhere, I could only watch the demons fight with my cheeks all day long, and I was so bored that I wanted to doze off...

Wait, it seems that I am thinking a little bit wrongly.

All in all, as Fang Tanxu approached, Wu Shi found himself getting nervous.

This is also normal, after all, the man in front of him has been dead for many years in his cognition, and he should be cherished deep in his memory.When they met suddenly at this time, the other party not only pointed out his origin in twos and twos, but also said to "see what my future disciples will look like", which inevitably makes people subconsciously want to show their best side.

But Wu Shi quickly realized that he was actually the same anyway, and he didn't have the best side.Thinking of this, the tension in my heart naturally subsided a little, and my heart slowly calmed down.

In reality, Fang Tanxu looked around and came to the conclusion with a little disappointment: "The appearance does not seem to be very high."

Wu Shi: "..."

Your old opener is really the same!

Lin Wuya said Shi Shiran from the side: "Master's words are really tactful. But there are not many beauties in the world. Since the fourth junior brother has set a precedent, no matter how crooked the latecomers are, they will still be beautiful." Don't worry about it."

"Big Brother!"

Before Wu Shi could express his anger, Fang Tanxu frowned and said, "Don't talk nonsense. Although your fourth junior brother is not outstanding in appearance, he is round and cute. What's more, the 'beauty' mentioned by the sect's ancestors is both Including external beauty as well as internal beauty, Tang Huan is so pure and flawless, of course it is in line with our philosophy of Shanshuimen."

Lin Wuya laughed, and replied repeatedly: "Master is right."

Fang Tanxu's face turned pale, and he turned his eyes back to Wu Shi, and then showed a puzzled look: "But the appearance of the little fellow Taoist is indeed somewhat ordinary, if you throw it into the crowd, I'm afraid you won't be able to tell it apart. According to my consistent aesthetic preferences, it doesn't seem like I will accept you as an apprentice."

Although his voice was not loud, he did not deliberately lower the volume, so it was clearly heard by the two people present.

Lin Wuya laughed even louder, which made Wu Shi really want to pick up the bench and slap him hard on the mouth.

But firstly, there was no bench here, secondly, the master was by his side, and thirdly, the elder brother was very fast. After thinking about it for a while, he could only give up resentfully, and made a strong note of the elder brother in his heart.

Lin Wuya, who was hundreds of years later, suddenly sneezed loudly.

He scratched his head blankly, thinking that some beauty might be missing him, but suddenly realized something, and the smile on his lips turned into a wry smile.

"Could it be that Junior Brother is angry with me?"

He looked up at the sky, recalled some distant images in his mind, and whispered to himself: "Little brother, although you can't hear me now, I still have to say, you really can't blame me casually. At that time, after all, you were young and frivolous, and you were a stranger you had never met before, even if you offended me, you should be merciful, right?"

"What's more, senior brother, I worked very hard today!"

After uttering this emotion, which was similar to a declaration, Lin Wuya's gaze slowly moved down to the distant horizon.There, a group of crazy monks were beating the heavens and the earth, and there was a bloody storm.

The display of various magical powers is accompanied by strong light and shadow effects and continuous bangs. While attacking the opponent mercilessly, it also destroys the surrounding environment.At this moment, the ground under the feet of the group of people has been shattered into countless fragments, the towering ancient trees were broken in the middle, the turbulent wind spread the aftermath of the battle outward, and the wailing of birds and beasts continued to echo between the sky and the earth.

This is the tenth day of "Fairy Chaos".

Ever since the first frantic patient appeared on Kanli Mountain, the mental disorder has turned into an unstoppable wave, quickly sweeping across the entire Zixiao Continent.Although at first glance it looks similar to a plague in the mortal world many years ago, but because the infected are all monks with a certain level of cultivation, the actual situation is much more serious than the plague.

Those who are insane lose their minds and become very irritable and aggressive.They will try their best to attack the human race or monster race in their field of vision, venting the spiritual power contained in their bodies wantonly, as if they don't know what fatigue is.Only when the spiritual source is exhausted, they will experience temporary sluggish response, but once recovered, they will revert to their old ways.

In the words of the master of Wan Dao Xianzong, they are like puppets driven by violent spiritual power, fighting continuously until the end.

For this reason, Dongfang Guardian rarely appeared in front of people.According to him, the instigator of all this is another demon who escaped from Nowhere. The magic element he possesses can be dispersed into countless tiny flying insects, sneaking into the body of a monk, infinitely magnifying the madness of the soul , to stimulate the abnormal movement of the spiritual source, which in turn caused their crazy behavior.

Although the major medical sects, including the Holy Medical Hall, have found a way to temporarily relieve the symptoms after overnight research, new infected people still continue to appear and cause various bad effects.As long as the demons behind the scenes are not found, the current situation will not be fundamentally resolved.

But the problem is that the evil demon clan hides so deeply that even a monk with profound attainments in divination and asking the sky can hardly detect the specific location of the other party.

Because of this, the monks had no choice but to take the next best thing, using the method of treating the symptoms rather than the root cause, knocking out these crazy people—sometimes they might even be their relatives and friends—all unconscious, and then transferred them to the medical school for treatment.At the same time, they also have to beware of their own infection, so that they will inevitably shrink back in action.

But for Lin Wuya, he was only worried about whether his movements were elegant enough, and whether he could take this opportunity to attract the attention of the beauty.As for whether it will be infected or not, it is not within the scope of his consideration, nor does it need to be within the scope of his consideration.

"Fellow Daoist, we're on the way!" The teammate next to him waved to him.

Lin Wuya nodded, stretched out his hand to grab from the void, and took out his Qianqiu Sword.In this temporary team, there was a female nun who was as beautiful as a flower and jade, and her speech and demeanor were gentle, but she was relatively indifferent to him.Lin Wuya felt that it was time to seize the opportunity in front of him and show off his unique charm as a high-level swordsman.

In the blink of an eye, the rest of the team had already rushed towards the crowd.Not to be outdone, Lin Wuya was about to fly out with his sword when a small and exquisite paper crane suddenly landed and hovered in front of him fluttering.

Lin Wuya: "..."

There is always a bad feeling.

The communication paper crane trembled, and golden rays of light overflowed from its body, converging on Feng Yun's anxious face.

Her brows were tense, she spoke quickly, and seemed to be a little out of breath: "Eldest senior brother, come back quickly, second senior brother is going crazy! If you don't come back, the entire mountain gate may be leveled by him!"

Lin Wuya: "...Isn't it? It's the second junior brother?"

"Third Senior Sister and I are almost unable to stop him... He Qi, why don't you leave? Wait, what did you say?"

He Qi's voice was not clearly recorded in the paper crane, and to Lin Wuya's ears, it was just a vague and small buzzing.However, he could clearly see Feng Yun's expression. She frowned and listened for a while, then froze for a while, and then showed a strange expression of mixed emotions, as if she wanted to laugh, but also seemed quite speechless .

Lin Wuya couldn't help asking: "What's wrong?"

This is just a pre-recorded video. Of course, Feng Yun couldn't hear her elder brother's questioning, but she still turned her head and explained to the subpoenaed paper crane: "Why tell me that a group of crazy people just came down the mountain Cultivator, the second senior brother is like... well, a hungry wolf that caught a sheep, ran away in the blink of an eye, and went down the mountain to fight with those guys."

"That's fine, when he hits hard, Third Senior Sister and I should be able to knock him out." After a pause, Feng Yun continued, "But just in case, you'd better come back, senior brother." Take a look. And... about some of your collection, I think, maybe you'd like to see them one last time."

There was a hint of gloating in her tone, which made Lin Wuya feel even more ominous.

What did the second junior brother smash? ?

*****

In the Shanshuimen hundreds of years ago, the surroundings are full of vitality and a harmonious scene.

Fang Tanxu looked at it carefully for a while, and finally realized it.

"Ah, I see, it's temperament!"

He patted Wu Shi's shoulder excitedly, and said: "You and I have a similar aura, which is the aura shared by hermits. Decadent but not decadent, lazy but not scattered, although it looks ordinary, but in fact it is The sharpness is restrained, and then transformed into a kind of calmness that is not confused by the outside world! It must be because of our similar temperament that I have caught your eye and accepted you as an apprentice!"

After these words, both Lin Wuya and Wu Shi were dumbfounded.

The former muttered, "Isn't it just a house?" Then he received a sharp stare from the master, and shut his mouth knowingly.

The latter recovered from his stupefaction, and immediately nodded his head, "That's right, that's right!"

Fang Tanxu was very satisfied with Wu Shi's reaction, and immediately suggested: "Since we are so destined, let's have a light meal at my residence first. Let's get to know each other in advance, and it will be convenient for us to enhance the relationship between master and apprentice in the future."

In this way, under the urging of his master, Wu Shi followed him to the long-lost hut.

Lin Wuya originally wanted to follow, but Master was not willing.After being glared at by Fang Tanxu, he had no choice but to stop abruptly, turned around and ran away in a desperate manner, with the air of a defeated general.

In Fang Tanxu's house, Wu Shi sat on the stool for a while, and finally realized that Master did not intend to eat.Not only that, he didn't even pour a glass of water for Wu Shi, but poured himself a cup of water from his own teacup.

Wu Shi: "..."

Is this eating air, or is it taking me as air?

Master looks a little strange like this, isn't the difference in attitudes before and after too big?

After drinking a whole pot of tea, Fang Tanxu finally set his eyes on his five future disciples. There seemed to be extremely complicated emotions in his pupils as deep as the sea, which made the latter subconsciously straighten his body and stand upright. ears.

The other party took a deep breath, his facial muscles trembled, and then asked softly: "Little friend, I just want to know... Are you the current 'spirit' of Wufangzhi?"

Wu Shi was shocked for a moment, thinking to himself, Master, do you really have the script in hand?If you could tell my identity at a glance, why didn't you say a word in those hundreds of years?

Since he didn't hide his emotions, Fang Tanxu had already got the answer.He exhaled slowly, and said with a tone of relief: "As expected, I think we are similar, and there are practical reasons for this."

"What, what do you mean?"

A sudden flash of light flashed in Wu Shi's mind, but he felt that it was so incredible that he was unwilling to believe it intellectually.

But the next moment, Fang Tanxu confirmed his conjecture.

"Because I used to be, too."
