Rebirth of Adorable Immortal Journey
Chapter 98 Unknown
Probably because the first time he met Taoist Chongfa, the other party had a heart demon, so Zhou Xi was a little uneasy and worried in addition to being excited.
During this period of time, he has been studying the magic circle with Xiao Ran, and he only has one wish in his heart to make Chongfa recover as soon as possible.
Now that I see the deity, I really want to know if he is really good.
But Master Xiao said that the Taoist's sudden heart demon should not be spread, and it seems inappropriate to mention it in front of Chongfa himself, so Zhou Xi could only suppress the complicated emotions in his heart, and first saluted the Taoist respectfully. .
Xiao Ran wanted to demonstrate their achievements to his master, so he brought over Qian Ji, which had been occupied by the little fur ball for a long time, and wanted to put on it the formation that the two had studied for a long time.
In order for Zhou Xi to have a good face in front of the master, Xiao Ran was not shy, and motioned Zhou Xi to do it.
Chongfa only saw the formation diagram, but not the real thing, but this did not prevent him from seeing the thoughts, efforts and talents of Xiao Ran and the others.
Generally speaking, it is not much easier to conduct further exploration on the basis of the original formation than to recreate a new formation.
Because the superposition of formations is not a simple addition, but there are many difficulties and obstacles that need to be overcome.
Looking at the appearance of Xiao Ran and Zhou Xi together, imagining how they discussed this formation countless times at the Qianji Pan, Chongfa suddenly remembered some memories that he hadn't recalled for a long time.
That was many, many years ago. At that time, Chongfa had just started with senior brother Chongming, and followed Master on the journey of battle.
To be precise, Chongfa should be the only one who has decided on this path. Senior brother Chongming clearly practiced swordsmanship at the beginning, but later he heard that he wanted to learn formation symbols, so he insisted on coming over, euphemistically called "accompanying him".
You can't get rid of it, and with a calm and self-sufficient personality of advocating the law, you can't say "don't follow me", so you can only treat it coldly, hoping that the other party will retreat when it is difficult.
However, even a disciple who is as gifted and intelligent as he is in worshiping the Fa, it is impossible to be very good at every formation map as soon as he gets it, so he is often stumped by the homework assigned by the master.
At this time, he would be stubborn and study day and night, making sure to disassemble the formation in his hand clearly.
Thinking about it now, the days at that time were actually very noisy, at least from Chongfa’s point of view.
Because there is always a brother by your side who insists on getting involved in your affairs with a stern face, and is especially good at making jokes when you are seriously thinking about it, and say a word or two of his "opinion".
If it’s true knowledge and good words, it’s fine, but they are all weird and imaginative things. Just thinking about it is so deviant and groundless, which makes people laugh.
But it's strange to say that it's just such a mess of opinions, sometimes they can really be turned out by the other party.
From Master, although respecting the Fa can also be praised as "serious" and "rigorous", he always feels that Master prefers "troublemakers" like Chongming.
Even though the master always hit Chongming on the arm with the stick he used to draw the formation, he still reprimanded him for "nonsense", "absurd" and "mess".
But Chongfa is not stupid, he can tell that behind the comments that seem to agree with him are Master's deeper expectations and love for Chongming.
In front of their master, they will always be the disciples of the three spiritual roots, who get the master's attention the most.
Mingming often knocks himself on the head with a stick in a foolish way, but when a certain person is knocked by the master, he bluffs and behaves like a monkey, jumping around without any shape.
In the end, he still dared to hide behind Chongfa, and muttered to Master: "You can't ask the imperfect me for what you want from a perfect person like Junior Brother!"
Chongfa didn't like people approaching at first, but at that time he was pressed against his back, extremely uncomfortable, and he couldn't disrespect his senior brother in front of the master, so he could only bear it silently with his head down.
However, his forbearance did not give Chongming any self-knowledge.
When it was time to stare at Chongfa, he still stared at him, even meditating next to Chongfa, without even laying a mat, just sitting on the ground like this, making people look disgusted.
Chongfa sometimes ignores him at all and just does his own thing. Occasionally, he feels that this "self-righteous company" is too annoying, so he looks up at the other party, hoping that the other party can see the irritability and dissatisfaction in his eyes.
It's a pity that the other party is obviously not a person with sharp eyesight.
Look over there, if he wasn't meditating, he would immediately grin, for fear that others wouldn't know how white his teeth were, they were brighter than the sun in the sky... no, they were dazzling!Dazzling!
So often in the end, when Chongfa took a look at him, he would simply shut his hearing and continue to bow his head and do his own thing.
Although he knew that the other party's gaze followed him everywhere, Chongfa learned to turn a blind eye.
To be honest, he has endured this feeling of being surrounded by eyes a lot since he was a child.
As a child with a single spiritual root, even members of the family would always look at him with eyes of appreciation, envy, satisfaction, expectation, and even jealousy.
Whether he is walking, sitting, paying respects to his elders, or staying alone in the yard, looking at the classics collected by the family... Those eyes that "pay attention" to him are never lacking.
If there is any difference between them, it is that other people's eyes are more or less restrained, but Chongming's eyes are always carefree and unobstructed.
This kind of gaze lasted for many years, and it also accompanied the long years of Chongfa in Qingyumen.
So when this gaze suddenly disappeared, although he didn't panic, he couldn't help subconsciously looking up at his surroundings, as if he didn't even know if he was looking for something or looking forward to something.
But this time, a certain wish in his heart was doomed to fail.
In fact, there were still people looking at him... probably with admiration, admiration, and awe.
But the most different thing is that the person looking at him is no longer the frank and thick-skinned man, and Chongfa can't help but look back at the past anymore.
Thinking of this, Chongfa realized that it had been a long time since there was such a lively scene around him.
Although Xiao Ran was already extremely "lively" when he first came, and it would be even more lively when the real Hanjing came, but the real Hanjing is the head after all, and when Xiao Ran talked to him, the politeness between the two , always maintain another distance.
But his "precious apprentice" Xiao Ran was obviously different to Zhou Xi.
In fact, in terms of age, Zhou Xi is much older than Xiao Ran; in terms of status in the sect, Xiao Ran is a direct disciple of a Taoist, while Zhou Xi is just an ordinary disciple of the cliff cave; In the later stage of golden core, Zhou Xi just formed a core...
In a sense, the gap between the two may be much larger than the gap between Xiao Ran and Master Han Jing, but their way of getting along is much easier.
Even a Taoist who upholds the Fa can easily see the difference.
If the Daoist worshiped Zhou Xi a few more times, or could see Zhou Xi's usual appearance, he would immediately understand why there was such a difference.
In Xiao Ran's heart, Zhou Xi is the partner who has a "common language" with him, who can talk to him without regard to his status in the family...
It's like seeing another self, can't you relax and be happy? !
But at this time, Taoist Chongming saw Zhou Xi for the first time, so he couldn't understand this rare "fate", so he subconsciously felt that this Zhou Xi was "different", so naturally he took a second look unconsciously .
However, it was just these simple two eyes that set off a storm in Chongfa's heart.
……
When Zhou Xi saw that Xiao Ran asked him to set up in the Qianji Pan, he knew that the other party wanted to take this rare opportunity so that he could show his face in front of Taoists who uphold the law.
Feeling grateful and excited from the bottom of his heart, Zhou Xi nodded immediately and said silently in his heart that he must seize this opportunity.
As for whether this opportunity is for Daoist Chongfa to see his talent, or simply to let the other party see himself like in his "dream", it is no longer something he needs to think about at this time.
The sand and stones in the Thousand Mechanism Pan can be moved with physical force, but he and Xiao Ran both like the feeling of doing it by themselves, so they directly took out a wooden stick as thick as two thumbs from the storage ring.
The branch grows from Biwu, which he only met when he came to the Central Plains. It is probably because this kind of tree is not very cold-resistant, so it was almost invisible when he was in the extreme north.
Because Orion said that the seeds of Biwu could stop bleeding, Zhou Xi, who was a poor casual cultivator and often couldn't afford pills, took some with him and got some wood along the way.
Now most of this wood has been used as a shelf in the little hair ball's room, and he still has a piece of it, which happens to be used for drawing a picture in the Qianji Pan when he is studying the array with Uncle Xiao, and he has already used it.
I saw that he was holding a wooden stick, and he didn't reach into the machine panel immediately, but knocked on his head unconsciously.
Xiao Ran was used to seeing him like this, and even asked the reason, so he didn't find it strange.
"Why do you knock yourself on the head every time you draw the formation, aren't you afraid you'll be stupid?"
"Hey, I'm just afraid that my head is stupid and I can't turn the corner, so I tap it first, maybe the inspiration will come out!"
Xiao Ran likes Zhou Xi's temperament, so he doesn't particularly despise his slightly weird "little habits".
However, the person sitting in the hall was Xiao Ran's Taoist master, who was as cold as ice and several times more serious than Qiao's ancestor, and Xiao Ran didn't know if the other party would be upset when he saw Zhou Xi's stupid and unruly actions. happiness.
He raised his head and was about to say a few words to divert his attention from worshiping the Fa, but he was surprised to find that his master's eyes were almost popping out!
——It's over, I forgot to remind Zhou Xi not to do messy little tricks, to be honest and dignified is to Master's appetite...
Taoist Chongfa quickly closed his eyes, as if he didn't want to look at this "messy" person again, making Xiao Ran wish he could grab Zhou Xi's hand and make him swear to God, although his behavior did not conform to the style of the aristocratic family, he really He is a decent person!
It's a pity that Daoists advocating the Fa couldn't hear Xiao Ran's voice, and Zhou Xi couldn't hear Xiao Ran's voice either.
So a person who seemed to have entered meditation quietly, who seemed to no longer pay attention to His Highness.
The other one kept busy with sex, and didn't know that he might have left an impression of "don't know what to do" and "frivolous behavior" in the heart of Daoist Chongfa.
However, when Zhou Xi completed the formation and looked at the hall expectantly, Chongfa also slowly opened his eyes, and was inevitably stung by the familiar and focused eyes.
This kind of sting came suddenly, and it was even more shocking than the shock of the familiar "little action" just now, which cannot be ignored.
For a moment, there was a trace of inexplicable expectation in this stinging pain...
But this expectation was like a candle in the wind, it was blown out in an instant, and a puff of cold smoke came out, choking people's throat and eyes sore.
——No matter how familiar you are, it is impossible to be that person... What else is this kind of thorough understanding that is even more unacceptable and has to be accepted?
Even Xiao Ran might not be able to understand the mixed emotions in Chongfa's eyes, but Zhou Xi who "meeted him for the first time" saw it.
Zhou Xi himself didn't know how he could see these deep things in this seemingly indifferent face and eyes.
It's as if he used to pay close attention to this person, keeping every expression and gaze of this person firmly in his mind.
Repeatedly guessing, pondering over and over again, until Zhou Xi can clearly know whether the other party is happy or unhappy with just any look, expression or movement of the other party.
It was precisely because he saw the bad emotions inside that Zhou Xi felt that his heart was going to die of pain.
But he restrained his urge to go forward, and could only just look back quietly like this, trying to appease the other party, just like... like he had done countless times before.
Unfortunately, this "pacification" did not achieve the expected effect.
Taoist Chongfa closed his eyes again, refusing to make any eye contact with him, causing Zhou Xi's heart to sink to the bottom of the valley instantly.
After witnessing all this, Xiao Ran only felt that his always bright mind was not enough.
——So why is Zhou Xi so bold that he dares to stare at his master?So his own master didn't yell at him, nor did he show any expression of disgust or disgust. Instead, he seemed to be avoiding the other party's eyes. What's going on? !
Without giving Xiao Ran any time to think clearly, Taoist Chongfa said, "You guys have done a good job... This seat has seen it, so let's step back first."
——Okay, this means chasing people away...
Xiao Ran had no choice but to put away the Qianji Pan, and returned to the Cliff Cave with an even more lost Zhou Xi.
Xiao Ran, who was a little unclear at first, thought about the process just now carefully, and always felt that he seemed to have missed an important plot, so no matter how he thought about it, he felt inexplicable.
But looking at Zhou Xi's silent expression, he was afraid that he would be hit or felt uneasy, so he comforted him: "The Taoist is the most powerful formation cultivator in the world, and our small formation diagram is probably nothing to him... But you see, Master has said everything, saying that we have done a good job, it means affirming our hard work, so don’t worry.”
Zhou Xi didn't know that this was Xiao Ran's words of comfort. He nodded and said, "It's been my lifelong wish to be able to meet a Taoist. Now... now this wish has finally come true, and I can die in peace."
What he said was not an exaggeration.
Zhou Xi was born in the extreme north. It wasn't until one day that he suddenly learned the method of absorbing the essence of the sun and the moon and the aura of heaven and earth without a teacher. His parents told their son a big secret.
That is Zhou Xi is not their own.
Because Zhou Xi was a baby they picked up by the stream, they named it Xi. The couple had no children, so they regarded Zhou Xi as their parent and child.
The environment in the extreme north is harsh and the conditions are difficult, but because the demon cultivators retreated to the Wanmo Ridge for a long time after the Demon Dao War, and the eminent monks from Guiyuan Temple guarded the defense line, the local residents can still live.
Ordinary people regard immortal cultivators as out of reach, so seeing Zhou Xi learned the method of cultivation by himself, his adoptive parents were pleasantly surprised and scared at the same time.
The surprise is naturally because my family has a child who has just grown up, and the fear is that the child who has been brought up with great difficulty may embark on the road of cultivating immortals and will never stay with them again.
But Zhou Xi's adoptive parents are honest people, and they don't want Zhou Xi to be buried in their hearts, so after thinking about it, they still told their son about his life experience.
However, Zhou Xi did not immediately leave home to pursue longevity as they imagined, but stayed with his adoptive parents until the end of their retirement.
Zhou Xi left his hometown after his adoptive parents passed away, and became a "casual cultivator" in what others call.
He gradually met more monks and learned more exercises through various channels. Zhou Xi also knew that Xiao Hui, who had been by his side since childhood and never grew up and never died, must be some kind of powerful monster. .
It was as if there was a force, a voice that led him to the Central Plains alone, and came towards Mo Xun Mountain in the dark.
He used to think that when he was communicating with other casual cultivators, he heard the name of Qingyumen and yearned for it, so he walked this way with all his heart.
After that, he trekked across mountains and rivers to the Moxun Mountains. The familiarity and intimacy here gave him a sigh and expectation of "this is the destination".
——Perhaps he stayed here in his previous life, and he was very happy, so that's why he lingers in his dreams and never forgets it...
However, he didn't know what he really wanted until he met Daoist Chongfa!
You don't need to form a pill, you don't need to have a baby, you don't need to live the same life as the sky, and you don't need to be admired and loved by thousands of people... just a glance from the other party is enough.
But Zhou Xi has to admit that human nature is still greedy, even if he is as free and easy as him, he cannot be exempt from vulgarity.
It's like an ordinary person who cultivates and pursues strength and lifespan. When they really build a foundation, form an alchemy, even form a baby, and transform into a god, they still don't stop, and they still want to pursue more power and more lifespan.
Zhou Xi originally only wanted the other party to look at him, but now he hopes that he can look at him more and say a word to him, it is best to say a few more words, or call him a teacher...
——Wait, what did he want the other party to call him? !
……
Seeing Zhou Xi suddenly stop in his tracks, Xiao Ran had a dazed and terrified expression on his face, thinking that he was lost and worried after all.
Although Xiao Ran himself was also not at ease when he first faced Daoists advocating the law, and he expressed deep sympathy for Zhou Xi who had hit a wall, but he could not say "his own master is so noble and glamorous, and he is not easy to please".
He could only pat Zhou Xi on the shoulder: "Well, in two days, I'll find out more about Taoism... If he agrees, I'll take you to Houfeng to pay his respects to the old man again."
Of course, if the Taoist worshiper showed dislike for Zhou Xi, it would be impossible for Xiao Ran to disobey his master for the sake of Zhou Xi, a pleasing fellow Taoist.
After separating from Xiao Ran, Zhou Xi returned to Lingzhi Courtyard "destroyed".
His appearance was automatically interpreted by Zhang Yufeng and the disciples of Lingzhi Academy as that meeting the Taoist this time was not going well.
Several disciples of Lingzhiyuan, including Zhang Yufeng, were all clumsy. They couldn't think of how to comfort Zhou Xi, so they could only act as if they hadn't seen him, and buried themselves in their own way, doing their own things, and waiting for him to go Digests and calms.
But others may not be so "understanding".
Soon, bad news spread among the low-ranking monks of Qingyu Gate, saying that although Zhou Xi, the newly promoted golden elixir of the Cliff Cave Mansion, had the opportunity to meet Taoist Chongfa, the so-called dog meat could not be seated, even if he met Such a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity is still not grasped.
"Before I said how powerful Zhouxi is... What defeated Shan Linggen, entered Qiao's cliff cave, and formed a golden pill... Now it's not impossible to enter the eyes of Taoists, it's really blind for nothing Opportunity!"
"If Xu Song resigns from Houfeng, I'm afraid the Taoist will be able to see it..."
"That's right, Zhouxi was just a three-spiritual root. I don't know what kind of shit luck I had before, but now it really shows up!"
"If you want me to say that Uncle Xiao doesn't mind at all, and took him to the back peak... I guess I've already seen that this is a guy who can't be supported, no matter how hard I try, I won't be favored by Taoists, so I'm sure Bringing it along won't threaten his status, but it will make him look great!"
"This time is good, let everyone see Zhou Xi's true ability! In case some people are still shameless and courteous to a golden core with three spiritual roots, I don't know what to curry favor with."
……
Cliff Cave Mansion has always ignored these gossips, how cold is Old Ancestor Qiao, how busy is Xiao Ran?
By himself, he not only has to take care of the mood of his master who upholds the Fa and Taoism, but also the daily life of his ancestor Qiao, and then he has to take care of the little furball who rolls around and begs for a hug after a day of absence, and he can't lose it when he meditates... How can he? There is time for such gossip.
But even if he didn't take care of it intentionally, he still couldn't stop someone with a heart from listening to the gossip and saying it in front of li xuan by means.
Once, the master Hanjing Zhenren brought the masters of Zhufeng to greet his uncle Chongfa Taoist.
While chatting, Master Han Xing pointedly said: "Master Uncle has just left the customs, why should Junior Brother Xiao bring some idle people to disturb Master Uncle Qingxiu?"
Xiao Ran squinted his eyes and looked at Xu Xing, he couldn't guess that the "idle person" he was referring to was Zhou Xi.
Xiao Ran immediately asked back: "What is Senior Brother Xu referring to? Why can't I understand Senior Brother at all."
Xu Xing had already seen the other party's "rogue" and had some experience, so he pretended to be calm and smiled lightly: "I heard that Junior Brother Xiao brought a formation cultivator from the Cliff Cave to the uncle, right? A casual cultivator with three spiritual roots has passed the entrance test by luck, and still needs to learn the rules."
He said this because he learned about some things that happened at that time through other channels, and felt that Taoist Chongfa must not like Zhou Xi, so he pointed it out on purpose.
Xiao Ran was ready to refute angrily, but who knew someone would speak earlier than him.
I only heard the Taoist in the hall look stern, and scolded: "Speak carefully!"
During this period of time, he has been studying the magic circle with Xiao Ran, and he only has one wish in his heart to make Chongfa recover as soon as possible.
Now that I see the deity, I really want to know if he is really good.
But Master Xiao said that the Taoist's sudden heart demon should not be spread, and it seems inappropriate to mention it in front of Chongfa himself, so Zhou Xi could only suppress the complicated emotions in his heart, and first saluted the Taoist respectfully. .

However, when Zhou Xi completed the formation and looked at the hall expectantly, Chongfa also slowly opened his eyes, and was inevitably stung by the familiar and focused eyes.
This kind of sting came suddenly, and it was even more shocking than the shock of the familiar "little action" just now, which cannot be ignored.
For a moment, there was a trace of inexplicable expectation in this stinging pain...
But this expectation was like a candle in the wind, it was blown out in an instant, and a puff of cold smoke came out, choking people's throat and eyes sore.
——No matter how familiar you are, it is impossible to be that person... What else is this kind of thorough understanding that is even more unacceptable and has to be accepted?
Even Xiao Ran might not be able to understand the mixed emotions in Chongfa's eyes, but Zhou Xi who "meeted him for the first time" saw it.
Zhou Xi himself didn't know how he could see these deep things in this seemingly indifferent face and eyes.
It's as if he used to pay close attention to this person, keeping every expression and gaze of this person firmly in his mind.
Repeatedly guessing, pondering over and over again, until Zhou Xi can clearly know whether the other party is happy or unhappy with just any look, expression or movement of the other party.
It was precisely because he saw the bad emotions inside that Zhou Xi felt that his heart was going to die of pain.
But he restrained his urge to go forward, and could only just look back quietly like this, trying to appease the other party, just like... like he had done countless times before.
Unfortunately, this "pacification" did not achieve the expected effect.
Taoist Chongfa closed his eyes again, refusing to make any eye contact with him, causing Zhou Xi's heart to sink to the bottom of the valley instantly.
After witnessing all this, Xiao Ran only felt that his always bright mind was not enough.
——So why is Zhou Xi so bold that he dares to stare at his master?So his own master didn't yell at him, nor did he show any expression of disgust or disgust. Instead, he seemed to be avoiding the other party's eyes. What's going on? !
Without giving Xiao Ran any time to think clearly, Taoist Chongfa said, "You guys have done a good job... This seat has seen it, so let's step back first."
——Okay, this means chasing people away...
Xiao Ran had no choice but to put away the Qianji Pan, and returned to the Cliff Cave with an even more lost Zhou Xi.
Xiao Ran, who was a little unclear at first, thought about the process just now carefully, and always felt that he seemed to have missed an important plot, so no matter how he thought about it, he felt inexplicable.
But looking at Zhou Xi's silent expression, he was afraid that he would be hit or felt uneasy, so he comforted him: "The Taoist is the most powerful formation cultivator in the world, and our small formation diagram is probably nothing to him... But you see, Master has said everything, saying that we have done a good job, it means affirming our hard work, so don’t worry.”
Zhou Xi didn't know that this was Xiao Ran's words of comfort. He nodded and said, "It's been my lifelong wish to be able to meet a Taoist. Now... now this wish has finally come true, and I can die in peace."
What he said was not an exaggeration.
Zhou Xi was born in the extreme north. It wasn't until one day that he suddenly learned the method of absorbing the essence of the sun and the moon and the aura of heaven and earth without a teacher. His parents told their son a big secret.
That is Zhou Xi is not their own.
Because Zhou Xi was a baby they picked up by the stream, they named it Xi. The couple had no children, so they regarded Zhou Xi as their parent and child.
The environment in the extreme north is harsh and the conditions are difficult, but because the demon cultivators retreated to the Wanmo Ridge for a long time after the Demon Dao War, and the eminent monks from Guiyuan Temple guarded the defense line, the local residents can still live.
Ordinary people regard immortal cultivators as out of reach, so seeing Zhou Xi learned the method of cultivation by himself, his adoptive parents were pleasantly surprised and scared at the same time.
The surprise is naturally because my family has a child who has just grown up, and the fear is that the child who has been brought up with great difficulty may embark on the road of cultivating immortals and will never stay with them again.
But Zhou Xi's adoptive parents are honest people, and they don't want Zhou Xi to be buried in their hearts, so after thinking about it, they still told their son about his life experience.
However, Zhou Xi did not immediately leave home to pursue longevity as they imagined, but stayed with his adoptive parents until the end of their retirement.
Zhou Xi left his hometown after his adoptive parents passed away, and became a "casual cultivator" in what others call.
He gradually met more monks and learned more exercises through various channels. Zhou Xi also knew that Xiao Hui, who had been by his side since childhood and never grew up and never died, must be some kind of powerful monster. .
It was as if there was a force, a voice that led him to the Central Plains alone, and came towards Mo Xun Mountain in the dark.
He used to think that when he was communicating with other casual cultivators, he heard the name of Qingyumen and yearned for it, so he walked this way with all his heart.
After that, he trekked across mountains and rivers to the Moxun Mountains. The familiarity and intimacy here gave him a sigh and expectation of "this is the destination".
——Perhaps he stayed here in his previous life, and he was very happy, so that's why he lingers in his dreams and never forgets it...
However, he didn't know what he really wanted until he met Daoist Chongfa!
You don't need to form a pill, you don't need to have a baby, you don't need to live the same life as the sky, and you don't need to be admired and loved by thousands of people... just a glance from the other party is enough.
But Zhou Xi has to admit that human nature is still greedy, even if he is as free and easy as him, he cannot be exempt from vulgarity.
It's like an ordinary person who cultivates and pursues strength and lifespan. When they really build a foundation, form an alchemy, even form a baby, and transform into a god, they still don't stop, and they still want to pursue more power and more lifespan.
Zhou Xi originally only wanted the other party to look at him, but now he hopes that he can look at him more and say a word to him, it is best to say a few more words, or call him a teacher...
——Wait, what did he want the other party to call him? !
……
Seeing Zhou Xi suddenly stop in his tracks, Xiao Ran had a dazed and terrified expression on his face, thinking that he was lost and worried after all.
Although Xiao Ran himself was also not at ease when he first faced Daoists advocating the law, and he expressed deep sympathy for Zhou Xi who had hit a wall, but he could not say "his own master is so noble and glamorous, and he is not easy to please".
He could only pat Zhou Xi on the shoulder: "Well, in two days, I'll find out more about Taoism... If he agrees, I'll take you to Houfeng to pay his respects to the old man again."
Of course, if the Taoist worshiper showed dislike for Zhou Xi, it would be impossible for Xiao Ran to disobey his master for the sake of Zhou Xi, a pleasing fellow Taoist.
After separating from Xiao Ran, Zhou Xi returned to Lingzhi Courtyard "destroyed".
His appearance was automatically interpreted by Zhang Yufeng and the disciples of Lingzhi Academy as that meeting the Taoist this time was not going well.
Several disciples of Lingzhiyuan, including Zhang Yufeng, were all clumsy. They couldn't think of how to comfort Zhou Xi, so they could only act as if they hadn't seen him, and buried themselves in their own way, doing their own things, and waiting for him to go Digests and calms.
But others may not be so "understanding".
Soon, bad news spread among the low-ranking monks of Qingyu Gate, saying that although Zhou Xi, the newly promoted golden elixir of the Cliff Cave Mansion, had the opportunity to meet Taoist Chongfa, the so-called dog meat could not be seated, even if he met Such a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity is still not grasped.
"Before I said how powerful Zhouxi is... What defeated Shan Linggen, entered Qiao's cliff cave, and formed a golden pill... Now it's not impossible to enter the eyes of Taoists, it's really blind for nothing Opportunity!"
"If Xu Song resigns from Houfeng, I'm afraid the Taoist will be able to see it..."
"That's right, Zhouxi was just a three-spiritual root. I don't know what kind of shit luck I had before, but now it really shows up!"
"If you want me to say that Uncle Xiao doesn't mind at all, and took him to the back peak... I guess I've already seen that this is a guy who can't be supported, no matter how hard I try, I won't be favored by Taoists, so I'm sure Bringing it along won't threaten his status, but it will make him look great!"
"This time is good, let everyone see Zhou Xi's true ability! In case some people are still shameless and courteous to a golden core with three spiritual roots, I don't know what to curry favor with."
……
Cliff Cave Mansion has always ignored these gossips, how cold is Old Ancestor Qiao, how busy is Xiao Ran?
By himself, he not only has to take care of the mood of his master who upholds the Fa and Taoism, but also the daily life of his ancestor Qiao, and then he has to take care of the little furball who rolls around and begs for a hug after a day of absence, and he can't lose it when he meditates... How can he? There is time for such gossip.
But even if he didn't take care of it intentionally, he still couldn't stop someone with a heart from listening to the gossip and saying it in front of li xuan by means.
Once, the master Hanjing Zhenren brought the masters of Zhufeng to greet his uncle Chongfa Taoist.
While chatting, Master Han Xing pointedly said: "Master Uncle has just left the customs, why should Junior Brother Xiao bring some idle people to disturb Master Uncle Qingxiu?"
Xiao Ran squinted his eyes and looked at Xu Xing, he couldn't guess that the "idle person" he was referring to was Zhou Xi.
Xiao Ran immediately asked back: "What is Senior Brother Xu referring to? Why can't I understand Senior Brother at all."
Xu Xing had already seen the other party's "rogue" and had some experience, so he pretended to be calm and smiled lightly: "I heard that Junior Brother Xiao brought a formation cultivator from the Cliff Cave to the uncle, right? A casual cultivator with three spiritual roots has passed the entrance test by luck, and still needs to learn the rules."
He said this because he learned about some things that happened at that time through other channels, and felt that Taoist Chongfa must not like Zhou Xi, so he pointed it out on purpose.
Xiao Ran was ready to refute angrily, but who knew someone would speak earlier than him.
I only heard the Taoist in the hall look stern, and scolded: "Speak carefully!"
