founder

The night passed, and the nightmares continued.Lu Hanshuang fell asleep and woke up in pain last night, sometimes dreamed of blood flowing into a river, and sometimes felt a big palm pat on his back in a daze. For Lu Hanshuang who was born without parents and relatives, it was another novel experience.

early morning.

The birds were chirping, and the annoying shouts of "Master" and "Master" came from far below the mountain!

Lu Hanshuang rubbed his forehead and got up, and let Dao Tong go down to pick up people, without any sense of guilt for driving the child labor.

The grandfather of the patriarch has been worshiped by others all the year round, and he has not learned to be considerate of others. The two disciples of the outer sect grew up in a normal environment of respecting the old and caring for the young. They have sound moral concepts and cannot sit idly by. .

The little guy didn't feel aggrieved by being driven at all, but instead looked triumphant that he was finally reused, which is surprising.

As soon as Song Zhanfei went up the mountain, he rushed over after asking about Lu Hanshuang's residence. As soon as he stepped into the Luoxue Courtyard, he raised his voice to express his deep thoughts about the night's parting, which made the teeth of Yang and Yang, who were cleaning the courtyard, sour.

Song Zhanfei rushed to the front of the house, and before he could meet his own master, he killed a tiger that stood in his way.

The wheelchair drove up, Xiao Yan sat firmly on it, blocked the closed door, and said, "Come with me."

"... the Great God of Skyyan?"

Song Zhanfei naturally recognized the celebrities in "Looking for Immortals", "It turns out that it is true that you are disabled on the Internet? Why are you here? You know Master? How did you know each other? Who are you, Master?"

Xiao Yan endured the noise, brought him to the pharmacy with an expression on his face, poured out a bowl of blended medicine, and handed it out.

"Put your hand in the reaction solution."

"What is this?" Song Zhanfei ignorantly stretched out his hand and plunged into the turbid liquid, which was quite comfortable at first, "Wow, this water is so moist! Hey, why is the color of the water getting clearer and clearer? The coolness seems to follow me Crawled up with his arm, ah—"

A cluster of flames suddenly burst out of the liquid, Song Zhanfei withdrew his hand and swung it violently, "What's the matter? It gets cold and hot for a while, and it still catches fire? It's scalding to death!"

Xiao Yan glanced past Song Zhanfei's scalded hand, and fell towards the spark that disappeared in the bowl, "...Water and fire twin spirit roots, although I don't know the grade, judging from the degree of burns, the qualification of the fire spirit root is not bad, but the water spirit root is not so good."

Song Zhanfei read many novels about cultivating immortals, "Damn! Is there such a thing as spiritual roots? I have spiritual roots? In general books, the spiritual roots are measured by stones or mirrors? What are you? You don't need to drop blood or output spiritual energy. Has it been tested? Are you sure?"

Xiao Yan glanced at Song Zhanfei, "Can you control the output of spiritual power?"

Song Zhanfei shook his head wildly.

Xiao Yan said, "The orthodoxy is weak, and ordinary people don't know how to mobilize the spiritual energy. I have nothing to do during this period of time, and I studied the principle of spirit detection recorded in ancient books, and extracted the extract from rhododendron grass to prepare a reaction solution. "Furthermore, the Zongmen test spirit stone has been in disrepair for a long time, and it costs a lot of money to buy materials to maintain it. It is better to save money and trouble by using a mixed solution.

Xiao Yan signaled Song Zhanfei to pour out the reaction solution.

"Why throw it away? This is my first step in cultivating immortality. It's so commemorative. I must buy a gift bottle and keep it as a treasure."

"up to you."

Xiao Yan drove the wheelchair away, Song Zhanfei caught up and asked again, "What is the principle you are talking about? How do you know so much?"

"The principle of rhododendrons occupying the nest is that the ingredients of rhododendron grass penetrate into the meridians, occupying the living space and kicking away the spiritual power originally stored in your body. The different properties of spiritual power and the reaction liquid produce different chemical effects."

"...Such righteous words can't cover up the truth about your sadism." Song Zhanfei muttered and asked, "You haven't said why you know so much?"

"Speak less and read more."

Song Zhanfei remained silent for a few seconds. Without holding back his words, he couldn't help asking again, "What about you, have you tested yourself? What spiritual root?"

"Single spiritual root of the water system."

"Grass! The single spirit root is the best in the novels of cultivating immortals... By the way, what are you and the head of the sect? Are you my senior brother? Senior senior brother?"

"……Quiet."

The two of them chatted without saying a word, and gradually drifted away.

At this time, they still don't know that this tortured and one-on-one method of measuring spiritual roots will become the unique feature of Xianyin Sect. The more tortured the person, the more excited and crazy they feel, and the more comfortable they feel The more weeping and crying.

……

Luoxueyuan.

Lu Hanshuang pushed open the door and walked out.The lush ancient trees in front of you stretch out their branches, and the scattered leaves filter the morning light, scattering bits and pieces of light, which are reflected on the bluestone steps, paving a colorful scene.

At the end of the stone steps, a young man in a wheelchair was waiting. Outside the courtyard wall came the childish voice of Dao Tong leading Song Zhanfei to introduce him.

Lu Hanshuang raised his eyes.

"busy?"

Xiao Yan reported the matter of taking Song Zhanfei to test the spirit root, "...I think you have already accepted him as a quasi-apprentice in the game, so according to the regulations in the sect's classics, you made your own proposal to take him to test the spirit root first, I think His qualifications are pretty good."

From Lu Hanshuang's point of view, even spirit embryos and immortal fetuses would not look down on them, but according to Xiao Dingtian's memory, this talent seems to be considered top-notch.Lu Hanshuang casually nodded, "What spiritual root are you?"

"Single water spirit root."

Lu Hanshuang was not familiar with the method of measuring spiritual roots here, so he looked directly at Xiao Yanzi's mansion, slightly surprised.According to the four grades of Tiandi Xuanhuang he accepted as apprentices, Xiao Yan's soul purity turned out to be the highest grade of heavenly spirit, only slightly inferior to Lu Hanshuang's natural fairy spirit. Thinking of what he saw when he came back, Xiao Yan's ability made him very worry-free.

Xiao Yan touched his forehead uncomfortably, feeling a little feverish from Lu Hanshuang's gaze.

"Do you want to join my sect?" Lu Hanshuang looked away, Xiao Yan simply nodded, and Lu Hanshuang didn't drag his feet, "Then let's be a senior brother."

Seeing Xiao Yan's hesitant expression, Lu Hanshuang thought about the relationship between the two of them, "There is no blood relationship in the sect, only the seniority of the master and apprentice, but anyone who enters our sect must cut off the ties of the world. Everything is based on the sect, can you do it? "

Xiao Yan nodded, he had nothing to worry about, and he didn't have any fate to cut off.

"If Song Zhanfei can do it, he might as well join the inner sect as your companion."

Xiao Yan nodded.

Lu Hanshuang waved him down, and suddenly thought, "Did you not finish what you said yesterday?"

"Yesterday morning, the world's first holographic variety show "Outsider" released a promotional trailer, and I saw you in it."

"I see, let's go."

Lu Hanshuang went back to the room and boarded the game cabin. When he went online, he randomly entered a popular video website. There were three options at the entrance: Anonymous, Tourist, and Login. Lu Hanshuang clicked Anonymous, and a random mimic mask appeared on his face.

The square beyond the horizon is crowded with noisy people, in twos and threes, counting posters and entering different movie screening halls.

Lu Hanshuang blocked other tourists, and the huge square was instantly empty, leaving him alone. He walked to the wayfinding smartphone in the center, entered the title of the trailer, and a small direction sign popped up immediately.

Following the virtual haircut, I walked to a silver commercial building. The round egg-shaped building was full of "artistic" atmosphere, and the promotional picture of "Stranger" flashed on the LED screen.

Enter the door, a long and narrow passage.

Although the crowd was blocked, the electronic sign on the door side showed the inside of the building: [2.13 million pageviews/30 people online]

Across the corridor, there are two rows of densely packed doors on the left and right walls, one next to the other, and each door can only allow one person to pass through.Count the house numbers: No. 1, No. 2, No. 3, No. 4... until the end, all the room numbers are followed by [full] red cards.

Next to the elevator entrance, hang a smart screen, click: search for vacant rooms.

显示：【62层有空房，为62-2458，62-2459，62-24……】

Lu Hanshuang entered the elevator, went up to the 62nd floor, found a vacant room and went in.

In other ordinary movie rooms, there are rows of seats in the projection hall, with a 5D look and feel, and the viewing, hearing, smelling, touching, and special effects are extremely realistic.

The holographic playback is a login port like a game platform. When you step on the round platform, the white light flashes, and you are in the playback scene, a completely immersive experience.

……

The trailer is only 5 minutes long——

A processed voice came from the darkness, with an echo effect in the empty space, it seemed to have a long aftertaste and justice.

"I want a blood sacrifice, and I need someone similar to me to help me find the way."

It's Chinese, so there's no need to move the translator in your ear.

The sun splits the darkness, the world slowly emerges, and a piece of hot golden sand floats out under the feet. Both the heat and the texture of the sand grains are almost the same as the previous personal experience.

look up.

Louis stood not far away, with a handsome face that had been beautified in the later stage, and his appearance had increased a few degrees.

Lu Hanshuang walked over, and when he entered, he could clearly see the fine hairs on his skin.Louis looked straight through him, looking at another person not far away.Lu Hanshuang looked back, a well-wrapped young man.

The two exchanged words, and the youth's rhetorical questions were deliberately cut off, leaving only speeches with very obvious tendencies.

Louis's, "Of course! I can psychic, so naturally I can see more than ordinary people, so you can't make a mistake listening to me."

"...Didling is a waste of time! Is it possible that you, an ordinary person, can understand better than a professional like me?!"

Cui Chengang said, "Hurry up, it's only a few kilometers, you professional bodyguards can go back and forth in a few minutes, do you need so much nonsense?"

The leader of the bodyguard said, "Don't be hypocritical, go quickly. If I meet the requirements, I will run for you."

The plot develops rapidly, Louis is pale and weak, which sets off his tall image, and the young man stands still, showing narrow prejudice and stubbornness.With the rendering of sound effects, Louis seemed to be facing an ignorant child, feeling helpless and trying his best to appease him, "Of course, you can go at ease."

Lu Hanshuang followed the young man and left, touched the young man's hat, but couldn't take it off, and got very close, but still couldn't tell his face.

After walking a certain distance, it was like encountering an invisible barrier, and the figure of the young man disappeared.Lu Hanshuang turned back, and the dazzling white light suddenly shone all around him. He slightly covered his eyes, and when his vision became clear again, Louis not far away was slowly falling down, gradually withering, as poignant as a heroic sacrifice.

The screen went black again, and the scene under his feet changed to the car.

Luis is in critical condition, "body temperature drops, heartbeat slows, blood pressure drops..."

The screen cut is exciting.

When the car rushed out of the stone forest, the cheers erupted, and the voices cheered for Louis one after another. Cui Chengang whispered worriedly, "Could it be that the mana was consumed too much and he fainted from exhaustion?"

The voice fell, the noise went away, and all the pictures disappeared and returned to the darkness. A sentence was projected in the darkness, and an English dubbing came: ["Strange People", extraordinary people, bear extraordinary responsibilities, they are lonely heroes. Moving forward among the thorns...]

——The entire trailer seems to have become Louis' home field.

It has to be said that the editing bias is very explicit, exaggerating Louis's sacrifice and inciting the audience's sympathy, as if all the credit goes to Louis.

This is exactly Qi Xingbo's purpose, to give Louis a moral high ground, the higher he is held, the harder he falls.

……

A high-end plastic surgery hospital.

Louis was lying on the hospital bed, moving lightly, feeling pain all over his body.

He closed his eyes, and the slight heat and thin light that danced on his eyelids made the newly born tender skin a little overwhelmed.This trip to the desert was a nightmare!Not long after he came back, his psychic ability disappeared, and he invited his colleagues to calm down his anger, but he still couldn't break the backlash.

The doctor checked before the skin peeling operation, claiming that this was the weirdest situation he had encountered in decades of medical treatment, and made Louis prepare for a lifelong skin peeling.This time the treatment is successful, and the effect can only last for a while. He will repeat aging again and again, and experience the pain of breaking the cocoon and changing the skin.

Louis' team filed a lawsuit with the program producer for the huge restoration cost. Louis has already missed the second recording and is worrying about his future.

"Dididi..." The notification tone of the incoming call interrupted his train of thought, and Louis connected, "How's the negotiation going?"

"That's not important, hurry up and check out the hot searches on the Internet."

Hot search on the Internet?

Could it be that the matter of stealing supplies and escaping has been exposed?Cause public opinion attack?It shouldn't be, the program team will keep it secret for the sake of "Outsider".

Louis frowned, and searched the Internet, and things were completely unexpected.

#心感路神# has become a hot word on the Internet, and the press release is full of "Hero Louis sacrifices himself for others, leading people to escape in the desert". Being misunderstood, I felt so distressed and hugged, I wish the Road God a speedy recovery!"

Louis wondered, and turned on the 3D projection of the trailer.

"Louis, my dear, the opportunity has come! Even if you lose your ability, with this level of audience popularity, you can definitely switch to the showbiz."

When Louis watched the preview, the team leader looked at Louis’s new image through the phone projection. The loose skin recovered and tightened, and the honey-colored skin became fairer. It lost the perfect strength of the past, and there was a sickness that could infect women’s maternal love. Satisfied :

"The program team is very interesting. I think the repair fee can be reconciled. You can recover from your injuries now, don't think too much, I will ask the navy to fan the flames and pave the way for you. After this incident, your reputation will definitely rise to a higher level .”

On the other side, Lu Hanshuang went out of the room and checked the message boards. On the domestic Internet, Lushen was praised for his greatness. Occasionally, a few voices condemned and cursed the unknown bodyguard for embarrassing the people of the country.

Lu Hanshuang didn't care about those superficial words, she frowned and looked at the suspended translucent panel, her face was bubbling with hostility, quite surprising.

The social atmosphere is impetuous, and it is not a good thing for the path of "Tao" that requires hard work.Lu Hanshuang pondered for a moment, then put aside her worries about promoting Taoism and logged off.

……

Half a month before the broadcast of the show, Xianyinzong first welcomed the initiation ceremony of the four disciples of the inner and outer sects.

To enter the sect, you have to cut off the mortal relationship, and you can't go down the mountain for no reason. The outer sect can go to the mortal world a few times because of sect affairs, and the inner sect only has two days off every month.

Song Zhanfei is still a minor and has not completed 12 years of compulsory education.

Yesterday, he was mentally prepared for a family battle, and mentioned the matter of entering the mountain during dinner.Song's mother was stunned at the moment, making sure her son wasn't joking several times, she grabbed Elder Song's shoulder and wept softly, wanting to sue that sect for abducting minors.

No matter what Song Zhanfei explained, Song's mother firmly believed that he was brainwashed by a cult organization.

Elder Song, who has always been obedient to Song's mother, was silent for a long time, and dropped his chopsticks, "I don't make people feel better when eating, and we can talk about everything after eating."

After the meal was over, Elder Song went into the study.

After Song Zhanfei had dealt with his pestering mother, he went to find Mr. Song again, opened the door and went in. There was a video projection playing in the room, and he recognized the person in the projection who was in heaven and earth at a glance, and shouted: "Fuck, old man, you actually asked someone to secretly take pictures of you!" My master?!"

Elder Song stared at the projection and had been in the top position for a long time. He would not listen to one side or believe it. No matter how sincerely Su Changming said it, he would not draw conclusions too early before seeing it with his own eyes.Therefore, Lu Hanshuang's process of searching for the missing person was all videotaped by the leading soldiers.

Repeated replays failed to find out the fraudulent elements, Song Lao put away the genuine evidence of a master, and said, "You are so focused on cultivating immortals now, I know I can't persuade you." Sighed, "I will apply to your high school later. Online teaching, I will give you five years to study continuously from high school to university, take the exam regularly, and once you fail more than three subjects, you will go down the mountain and go home immediately."

"You mean—you agreed?!" Song Zhanfei was fascinated by the surprise in front of him, and didn't understand the old man's good intentions.

Elder Song shook his head. His grandson was used to the convenience of the modern city, but he hadn't experienced the hardships of going to the mountains.If one day you regret it, feel at a loss, and have no one to support you, a degree is the capital to stand in the world, and you will not have nowhere to go; Is it messed up?

Song Zhanfei bid farewell to Xu Wei, and climbed up to Lingxiao Mountain with the generous apprentice ceremony prepared by Mr. Song.

Zongmen main hall.

Lu Hanshuang sat on the pear-blossom chair, looking down at the four new disciples at the bottom of the steps.Compared with the rashness of accepting apprentices, he is quite cautious about the promises involved in the ceremony.

The two disciples from the outer sect held the plate, put a branch of bright red peach blossom and a branch of jade white plum flower on it, and offered them to the patriarch riding a bull. They burned incense and held them above their heads, and worshiped three times.

The two inner disciples had to kneel and kowtow three times, Song Zhanfei made a complete set, Xiao Yan was not good at it, so they just had to serve tea to Lu Hanshuang with their own hands.

Lu Hanshuang took a sip, put it on the plate held by Dao Tong beside him, brushed his long fingers over the disciple's jade plate spread out on the desk in front of him, and branded the two lay names on it.

"From now on, you are the disciples of the Xianyin Sect. When you enter my sect, you must obey your master's order. Everything is based on the master's sect."

Lu Hanshuang's eyes were as sharp as knives, which made their hearts tremble, and then he said again, "If someone is rebellious, don't blame me for cutting them."

Xiao Yan lowered his head, Song Zhanfei hurriedly said that he didn't dare.

Lu Hanshuang jumped lightly, landed in front of the two, raised his palms to the top of their foreheads, and used magic to penetrate into the sea of ​​consciousness.

Song Zhanfei cried out in pain immediately, seeing the serious expression of his master, he didn't dare to struggle recklessly, and endured the feeling of a splitting headache.After a while, Lu Hanshuang finally withdrew his hand, and Xiao Yan stared at it with a pair of dark eyes, "Is this the soul search technique?"

Lu Hanshuang nodded without denying it.

Xiao Yan's gaze sank. It was recorded in ancient books that soul searching is harmful to a person's soul. Taoism talks about cause and effect, and it is necessary to forgive others. Even if they torture sinners, they will not do it easily.

Lu Hanshuang had been bitten back by villains, so she was naturally more cautious, preventing that plane from sending undercover agents again.Xiao Yan turned his gaze around Lu Hanshuang for a few moments, seeing that he had no intention of explaining, he shut his mouth and didn't ask any more questions.Lu Hanshuang flew back to the pear flower chair, facing the two direct disciples, "Getting started and throwing away the past, commensurate with the name of the Tao."

From the first time Lu Hanshuang was born in Chaos, he saw the rise of Qing Qi. The first generation of disciples used the word "Qing" as their generation, which also meant breaking Chaos and enlightening, and it is the same today.

"How about taking Qingyan and Qingfei?"

The number given by the master, how dare you have an opinion, the two of them naturally accepted it gladly.

Lu Hanshuang began to arrange the daily training schedule.There is no difference between inner and outer disciples. Except for Xiao Yan who is self-taught, everyone else reads the Daoist scripture "The Proverbs of Heaven and Earth" every morning. Pile to practice footwork, and then chop wood [-] times.

Daotong handed out the training notes, Lu Hanshuang ignored them and got up to leave.

Passing by the warehouse of Zongmen, he stopped.Among Xiao Dingtian's three wishes, the first two concepts are too general, and he said to inherit the Taoism and strengthen the sect. He has just accepted disciples and is already a successor. There are any fluctuations in Qi's "mind power". Could it be that the so-called inheritance is for the two to touch the Taoism?And when it comes to being strong...

Lu Hanshuang took down a brocade box from the multi-treasure rack, opened it and saw seven damaged disciple cards arranged side by side, Lu Hanshuang touched the cards and thought.

Is it not enough apprentices?

He thought about it for a while, put down his confusion and went back to his room to surf the Internet.

When he went to the desert, his whereabouts were exposed, which made Lu Hanshuang pay attention to the local technological civilization that he didn't care about at first, and worked hard to catch up on knowledge.

When they encountered a bottleneck, they didn't dare to disturb Lu Hanshuang and his elders, so they could only ask Xiao Yan for help.Xiao Yan deeply felt that there was a problem with Lu Hanshuang's irresponsible stocking, so he often read useful ancient books from the warehouse, gave some people some knowledge about Taoism, and arranged cleaning time.

During the interval of practice, the four brothers from inner and outer sects looked up at the decayed beams.

Song Zhanfei was worried, "You said this house won't collapse, right?"

"This is something that Eldest Senior Brother has asked someone to repair." Yang Yang answered, "It's much better than the precarious situation half a month ago."

Song Zhanfei had an unimaginable expression on his face.

Liang Jia rubbed his hungry stomach, thinking that in order to save food expenses these days, he searched through the Zongmen recipes and found a fairy soup made with various wild vegetables on the mountain, hesitantly said, "...I think so, our head His old man really doesn't eat the fireworks of the world, he has a clean sleeve, and doesn't care about world affairs... Our sect doesn't have any profit-making projects, so what will we eat and drink in the future?"

Song Zhanfei added, "I think the house is still leaking, is it safer to repair it again?"

There were a lot of questions, and the brothers and sisters looked at each other, feeling sorry for each other.

Yang Yang, "Why don't I go down the mountain occasionally to pick up an exorcism order?"

Liang Jia, "...I have a few big clients who can suck blood at any time. If it's really impossible, I can go out and hang a stall along the street to tell fortunes."

Song Zhanfei, "Why don't I ask my grandpa's family to donate some incense money?" After finishing speaking, he looked at Xiao Yan who had been silent all this time, and heard Tong Tong say that God Tianyan was physically weak and strong, and insisted on earning money online every day. Respectfully.
