Chapter 68 Apprenticeship

"Meet the head." The first person to react and salute was Xie Zhi who was ignored by everyone.

"Meet the master." "Meet the master."

As soon as she reminded them, the others came back to their senses and bowed to salute the purple-robed man. Luo Zhiguang, who had spoken so rudely just now, broke out in a cold sweat on his brow: If he offends the head of the sect, then his purpose of coming here will be in vain. up.

If I knew it earlier, I wouldn’t say anything more, let that boy Luo Zhonglun fend for himself, but if we really want to talk about it, we can still explain that he offended the head by committing death, and instead of saving him, he saved the face of the Prince of Danyang County... ...Unfortunately, it's too late to say anything now.

While Luo Zhiguang was feeling annoyed, he heard the purple-robed man speak indifferently, but he looked at Xie Zhi who was the first to bow to her: "You don't need to be too polite, just tell me what happened."

"Yes." Xie Zhi nodded to her, and then she and Zhong Liqing asked Lu Xianrou to open up the heart training road, but after the trial, they were attacked by Luo Zhonglun, and then Luo Zhiguang and Lu Xianrou came to tell the whole story, but intentionally or unintentionally. After passing the nun in Xuanyi and her white rabbit monster, I subconsciously didn't want to involve too much, and felt that it didn't matter.

She was clear and straightforward, and the implication was clearly that the Luo family brothers deliberately found fault. One stabbed in the back and hurt others, and it was their own fault;

Wanting to refute, but hindered by the indistinguishable expression of the purple-robed man, he dared not speak, so he could only stare at the unconscious Luo Zhonglun again, wishing he could tear him to pieces immediately.

"According to what you mean, Qin Zhong bounced Luo Zhonglun's attack out of self-defense, right?" Confirmed in a warm voice to Xie Zhi.

"Yes." Xie Zhi nodded.

"Okay, since that's the case, then let's get this out of the way and talk about how the two sons of the Danyang County Prince's Mansion targeted my disciple for no reason, and almost caused her to fail to form the alchemy—how should we settle this account?" "Yuan Qiongshuang straightened her sleeves, and casually looked at Luo Zhiguang's pale face, her eyes seemed to be frozen with ice for thousands of years, "If I remember correctly, you are also Chonghua's Tsing Yi disciples, according to In terms of seniority, Qin Zhong should be called Master Uncle——injuring her is deceiving her master and destroying her ancestors, can you bear the crime?"

"This, this...she, she..." Luo Zhiguang's knees were bent by Yuan Qiongshuang's coercive cold snort, and he couldn't help but knelt on the ground, hesitating and speechless. But in my heart, I regretted it at the beginning - if I knew that Miss Qin Zhong Qin was the closed disciple appointed by the head of the sect, it would be too late for the Luo family to fawn on her, let alone embarrassing her, how could I get to this point?

I'm afraid the sect leader is dissatisfied with his son. If he can't find a way to remedy it, the Danyang County Palace will regard him as a sinner.

"For the sake of your sincere apology, this matter will not be pursued for the time being, and we will discuss it later. When Qin Zhong wakes up, you can bring Luo Zhonglun to plead guilty with her." Yuan Qiongshuang glanced at the bag that Luo Zhiguang ordered his servants to carry. Box Box Treasure raised his eyebrows noncommittally, and in the blink of an eye he decided to pay tribute as an apology, and dismissed everyone in the Luo family with a few words.

"Xie Zhi, you are fine." When Luo Zhiguang led the people away in a daze, Yuan Qiongshuang turned to look at the respectful Xie Zhi, smiled slightly, and waved her hand to give her a jade slip of exercises, "Wait for you to form an alchemy From now on, come to Qinglian Peak."

The implication was that she was going to be accepted as a white-clothed disciple of the main peak of Qinglian Peak.

According to the rules of the Chonghua Sect, one can only become a white-clothed disciple at the Jindan period, and join each peak as an apprentice, and the white-clothed disciples of the five main peaks are naturally different from other peaks—although Xie Zhi is not as close as Zhong Liqing, who was accepted as a direct disciple by the head of the sect , but being able to join Qinglian Peak as a disciple in white is already a place that ordinary disciples dare not even think about.

If you don't compare with Zhong Liqing, this is a step up to the sky.

"Thank you, head." After thanking Yuan Qiongshuang, seeing that she and Lu Xianrou still had something to say, and it would take some time for Zhong Liqing to finish her work, she resigned sensibly.

Excited in her heart, she planned to go to Tang Yuan immediately, tell her the news, and make her heart clear to her, and she didn't want to wait for a moment.

After everyone had left and there was no one idle on the sword washing platform, Lu Xianrou finally said after glancing at Zhong Liqing who was concentrating on her energy, "Master, do you really want to accept her as a disciple?"

Yuan Qiongshuang gave her a strange look: "Didn't you say that you wanted to let the teacher take in a few more apprentices to share the burden for you? Why are you not happy now?"

"It's not that the apprentice is unhappy, it's just..." Lu Xianrou pursed her lips, unable to explain her complicated mood, so she asked lightly, "When did Master plan to accept her?"

——Of course Lu Xianrou couldn't tell her, she was just worried that Zhong Liqing had other plans, and she didn't want to join Qinglian Peak's sect.

She knew that her idea was very strange. May I ask, which disciple of the Chonghua sect would not be willing to become the disciple of the master?

It's just that she feels that Zhong Liqing is different, and she seems to have a goal... Maybe, she is supercilious.

"Why, Rou'er, are you jealous?" Yuan Qiongshuang smiled, raised her hand and rubbed the top of her hair, thinking she had guessed what the apprentice was thinking, so she coaxed: "This girl has good qualifications, I can help you a little in the future, of course Rou'er is the one who hurts the most in my heart as a teacher."

"That's not what I mean..." Lu Xianrou sighed.

"Okay then, take your junior sister to the sword mound later to pick up a sword and prepare for the master apprenticeship ceremony tomorrow." Not giving Lu Xianrou a chance to refuse, Yuan Qiongshuang shook her sleeves and flew away gracefully.

Before leaving, Yuan Qiongshuang glanced at Zhong Liqing, who was still consolidating her state unconsciously, and Yuan Qiongshuang rarely evoked a narrow smile: Suddenly, she looked forward to seeing this girl tomorrow, so shocked that she would be so stupid that she couldn't be more shocked.

"Master..." He opened his mouth, but couldn't stop Yuan Qiongshuang who disappeared like the wind.

——The hands-off shopkeeper is really as smooth as ever.

Taking her to the Sword Tomb is a trivial matter, but preparing for the ceremony of apprenticeship is not easy: the whole faction must be notified, and the seniors and uncles who have retreated must be invited to watch the ceremony, and the disciples who are close must be summoned back; The bedroom has to be vacated, and her daily clothes and utensils have to be prepared... Lu Xianrou was thinking about the things to be done, but felt that her head was as big as a bucket.

If you want to guard Zhong Liqing, you can't just leave to deal with it, so you have to send a message to a few white-clothed disciples at Qinglian Peak, and assign the matter one by one. During the interrogation, they took the lead in cutting off the communication——at the Nascent Soul stage, their golden sword of faith was no longer a magic weapon used by ordinary disciples, but a re-sacrificed spiritual weapon, including the function of communication, as long as You can get in touch with the other party within a certain distance - saving her from nagging questions.

After waiting for more than an hour, Zhong Liqing's aura finally calmed down.

The first moment she opened her eyes, she was stared at unblinkingly by the object of admiration, everyone would be shocked, but Zhong Liqing was still immersed in the loneliness of A Niang disappearing in front of her eyes, pleasantly surprised The joy of love is greatly reduced, leaving only surprise.

"Junior Sister, you're awake, how do you feel?" Seeing her confused and shocked face, which was completely different from the old one before, Lu Xianrou couldn't help but smile slightly, and even softened her voice and asked caringly.

"Huh? You called me... what?" Zhong Liqing didn't understand, why did Lu Xianrou call herself junior sister in just a few hours?Then do you want to respond with a cheeky face?But, it doesn't make sense...

Just when he was wondering, he heard Lu Xianrou explain: "Just now you are consolidating your realm, maybe you haven't heard of it, but the master has prepared to accept you as a closed disciple, and the ceremony of apprenticeship will be officially held tomorrow. From now on, you should call me Senior Sister gone."

"...Senior Sister?" Zhong Liqing felt that her brain seemed a little slow, and she couldn't digest so much information at once, but her subconscious mind automatically screened out the news she wanted to hear the most, and she couldn't help but follow her words in a daze.

"Junior Sister." Seeing that she was so cute and silly, Lu Xianrou couldn't help rubbing the top of Zhong Liqing's head just like Yuan Qiongshuang touched her head before -- no wonder Master always likes to bully her like this. Other people's heads are so interesting, hey, Junior Sister seems to be blushing...

"Senior Sister." Zhong Liqing didn't expect that what she had been thinking all along would come true in this way. She had an unreal dreamy feeling. She was still rubbing her head in the middle of a fierce brain battle, and the tip of her nose smelled Lu Xianrou. With the unique lotus fragrance, the face turns red immediately.

"Master, where is the old lady, Master? Disciple, I haven't had time to meet Master yet." Feeling that if this continues, she might turn red all over, Zhong Liqing regained her composure and changed the topic uncomfortably.

Speaking of which, she hasn't met the head of the sect yet... Why did she suddenly accept herself as an apprentice?Just because I succeeded in forming a pill?Could it be that Senior Mu Ye mentioned himself to the head of the sect?

Zhong Liqing, who was at a loss, suddenly wanted to see Senior Mu Ye, and wanted to share with her the joy of having already formed an alchemy - in her heart, Senior Mu Ye was more like her teacher.

"It's okay, Master ordered me to take you to the Sword Tomb to pick up a natal sword first, and you will be able to see Master at the ceremony tomorrow," Lu Xianrou drew out her natal sword, motioning Zhong Liqing to stand behind her, thinking After thinking about it, he did not forget to ask, "By the way, in front of the master, please don't say the word old man, the master doesn't like to hear it."

"Thank you, senior sister, for reminding me, I see." Zhong Liqing obediently agreed, and when Lu Xianrou turned back to hold her sword, she quietly clenched a corner of her clothes, pursed her mouth, and secretly smiled.

——Senior Sister, Senior Sister.

In a place where she couldn't see, Zhong Liqing moved her lips a few more times, but she didn't cry out, but the joy and contentment in her eyes almost overflowed.

The sword mound mentioned by Yuan Qiongshuang and Lu Xianrou is the place where the Chonghua Sword Sect hides their swords - Dayan Sword Mound.

Only disciples who have formed a golden core can come to Dayan Sword Tomb to choose their own natal sword, and after the death of Chonghua Sword Sect disciples, the natal sword will return to the sword tomb, waiting for the arrival of the next master.

In the world of self-cultivation, there are not a few people who use swords, but the swords of these sword cultivators are just sabers, and only the disciples of the Chonghua Sword Sect use weapons called natal swords.

When the disciples of Chonghua recognized the master with the blood of the sword and sacrificed it, the sword was closely related to it, and their hearts and minds were connected. Being backlashed, if the sword is destroyed, the cultivation base may have to retreat a few realms.

When it was time for a cup of tea, the two of them flew to a valley. Lu Xianrou asked her to step back, and then sat down on the ground, making several complicated handprints with a series of movements: "Huanghuang Slaying Demon Sword, Suppressing Evil in the Great Yan, the clouds are thick and the sky is raining, and the ten directions are bright."

Nianbi flicked his fingers, and a strong spiritual force moved towards the stone wall in front of the valley. The stone wall made a loud noise, and a gap was split from the middle, and moved towards the two sides.

There is no living thing in that valley, only the gloomy and distant emptiness, but in the emptiness, there are dense light spots shining, like a sky full of stars-every starlight is a long sword.

Looking around, there are no less than ten thousand precious swords in the huge valley.

There are swords of different shapes all over the mountains and valleys, some are dazzling with silver light, some are black and unopened, some are more than ten feet long, some are less than a finger wide, some are inlaid with colorful precious stones, some are Simple and unpretentious, like a piece of scrap iron... There are so many strange things, all kinds of things, Zhong Liqing couldn't help being dazzled.

However, with just a few turns, a sword came into her eyes.

It was a bone sword with a strange shape. The body of the sword was shaped like a ferocious sea fish. The edge of the sword was densely formed by the bony fish bones. There was a round ruby ​​inlaid on the eye of the fish, which shone like a three-pointed sword. Evil, the white and delicate skeleton is polished very smoothly, as if carved from high-quality ivory, it is flamboyant and gorgeous, making people unable to take their eyes off it.

——It’s just that it’s too high-profile.

Zhong Liqing was picky in her heart, but she couldn't move any further.

After hesitating for three breaths, she still stepped forward, pulled out the sword, and easily held it in her hand without encountering any obstacles, as if the sword had been waiting for her for a long time.

Taking a closer look, there are two ancient inscribed scripts inscribed on the end of the hilt - Jue Chi, which should be the name of the sword.

Holding the Jue Chi sword in his hand, Zhong Liqing didn't have the heart to compare it with other swords, but with the determination "this is it", she turned around and walked out of the sword mound.

Lu Xianrou watched in amazement as she only went in for a while before lifting the sword out. She was surprised at her efficiency and determination, and was even more curious about the sword in her hand—she thought that according to Zhong Liqing's temperament, it didn't seem to be I don't like such a domineering sword.

However, she was only puzzled in her heart, and she didn't say it out loud. Instead, she talked to Zhong Liqing about the method of recognizing the master by dripping blood and sacrificing the primordial sword.

After she understood it, Zhong Liqing cut her wrist with the sword without saying a word, and watched calmly as the blood splashed on the bone sword, and was swallowed up in a blink of an eye, and the sword seemed insatiable , After sucking almost half a bowl of blood, there was no reaction of admitting the Lord.

Lu Xianrou felt that something was wrong, and was about to stop her, but Zhong Liqing didn't feel that something was wrong, instead, she pressed down on the blade of the sword again, opening the opening between her wrists a little wider, with such force that it seemed that it was not He treats his own hand as if he wanted to cut off that wrist.

Even Lu Xianrou, who is as knowledgeable as she is, can't help but pursed her lips and looked away.

Finally, before the blood on Zhong Liqing's face was almost gone, the ruby ​​on the Jue Chi sword finally flashed a red light, and then there was a sword sound, the sword seemed to have a spirituality, and it circled Zhong Liqing a few times The circle, as if rejoicing that she had a master, finally obediently returned to her hands.

The blood on her wrist was stopped indifferently, and Lu Xianrou bandaged the wound for her. Zhong Liqing looked at the Jue Chi Sword in her hand with great joy, like a child holding a beloved toy.

Seeing her so happy, Lu Xianrou couldn't help but chuckled, and then taught her the tricks of flying with a sword - on the way back, Zhong Liqing stepped on the Jue Chi Sword and flew alongside her.

When I went back to Yunlanju to pack my things, I met Xie Zhi who was full of joy. Looking at her, I guess I had a talk with Tang Yuan.

Zhong Liqing had no intention of meddling in their private affairs, but felt that it would be a good thing for the two of them to achieve a positive result——Smiled at herself, and quietly left a jade slip and a few stacks of chains in her room He didn't intend to bid farewell to her in person, so he left Yunlanju immediately.

She went to Yun Yinju and waited for another two hours, but she still couldn't see the trace of Senior Mu Ye, so she had no choice but to leave a letter, explaining her whereabouts, and then set off for Qinglian Peak.

Time flies, and in the blink of an eye, it will be the auspicious time of the next day.

Although the apprenticeship ceremony was rushed, it was organized in an orderly manner.

When Zhong Liqing changed into the white brocade robe symbolizing her own disciple, she couldn't help turning around in the mirror, looking at herself in the mirror complacently, looking left and right, but couldn't help regretting: Wearing white clothes, the disciple's uniform handed down by her, if it complements her original appearance, I don't know how beautiful it is.

Holding her face intoxicated for a while, Zhong Liqing straightened her face before turning around and going out the door.

The ceremony was held at the Sword Washing Platform in front of the five main peaks, and everyone from the whole faction came to watch the ceremony. Many disciples who had seen her talked with those around them. stand up.

Zhong Liqing passed these people without looking sideways, and walked slowly towards the stage.

The master of ceremonies was a bit unexpected. It was Yan Zichu, the elder of the ashes removal courtyard. He heard him recite a long speech of acknowledgment of grace and destiny, and when Zhong Liqing fell asleep, he said: "The auspicious time has come, Sacrifice to heaven and earth!"

She was shocked, three sticks of incense were stuffed into her hands, and she was patted on the back. She walked forward involuntarily, bowed, and inserted the incense in her hand into the incense burner.

After finishing all this, she turned around and walked towards the seat sitting in the middle of the high platform, her eyes slightly narrowed, she didn't dare to look directly at the other person, but she caught a glimpse of the bright purple dress from the corner of her eye, and somehow felt a little familiar.

"Disciple Qin Zhong, pay homage to Master." Kneeling on one knee, bowing her head with her fists folded, Zhong Liqing said, then raised her head, facing a pair of amber eyes, the owner of which looked down expressionlessly. A smile flashed in her eyes.

——Isn't this purple-robed man exactly Senior Mu Ye?

It turned out that Senior Mu Ye was the head of Chonghua, Yuan Qiongshuang.

"Excuse me." Senior Mu Ye, that is, the head of the sect, raised his hand on airs, gesturing for her to get up, but in the second half of the sentence, he smiled and secretly sent a voice to Zhong Liqing, "Why, I am happy to see you as a teacher. Are you stupid? Obedient, apprentice, son?"

"Thank you, Master." Zhong Liqing maintained a respectful and dignified expression on his face, but his heart was filled with turbulent waves and uncontrollable remorse... If possible, I really want to go back to three years ago and reject that stupid man Senior Mu Ye proposed to beat him up.

The corner of her mouth raised a stiff arc, Zhong Liqing had no choice but to pretend to be indifferent, as if she had never seen the teasing in Yuan Qiongshuang's eyes.

——Although she was a bit rebellious, besides herself, she also wanted to beat up Senior Mu Ye at that time.
