Zhu He

Dong Qinghe entrusts the two brothers of the Chang family to Po Ge, and Po Ge, who is always in a hurry, entrusts them to his disciple Bai Jian to arrange.

Bai Jian scribbled on the paper for a long time, took Jiaci and Chang Wang to an old man named Fufeng, and told Jiaci that this was the water department of Qinghemen, and he and his elder brother would live here first If you have any difficulties, you can find the Minister of Water, Lao Fufeng, to solve them.

Jiaci saw that he left behind those words and turned to leave, so he couldn't help but dared to ask: "I, we... when will we see the sect master again?"

Bai Jian looked back at him with a puzzled expression: "Sect Master? The Sect Master is busy with everything, and usually only the elders can see him. If he wants to find you, he will call you to Pianshiju for questioning. Don't worry."

After speaking, there was no one in the blink of an eye.

Because it was the sect master's order, the minister of water, Lao Fufeng, specially led his disciples to wait by the gate.But as soon as Bai Jian left, the smile on his face disappeared.With a curled lip and a wrinkled eyebrow, he stared at Jiaci for a long time, and then slapped his celestial spirit cap.

Jiaci was taken aback, and felt that the old man's hand rested on his forehead for a long time, and muttered: "There is really an inner alchemy..." His tone and eyes were full of pity, as if Jiaci What kind of gift is given to violence.

Afterwards, Fu Feng sighed and shook his head, and said "find a place for these two" to the big disciple beside him, and then left.

The first disciple handed over the task to the second disciple, and the second disciple shirked it to the lower ones, passing it on one by one, and the one who finally took over the gift was a young man about his age, with a thin and small appearance, who looked nothing like other People are arrogant, but a little pitiful.

Seeing Jiaci looking at him blankly, the little disciple rubbed his hands and said, "I, I'll take you to the front room..."

Unexpectedly, he was stopped by others.

"Yu Miao, what are you doing?"

"I... I'll take them to the front..."

"What's the front? The front room is for guests, and they can live in the back room."

"But the master asked the master to arrange..."

"The head of the door only said to accommodate them, but he didn't say that he would enshrine them. He is just a mortal. You expect him to ascend to immortality in the future like us, but he will leave after a few days, and the front room has to be cleaned after he finishes his stay. Said, what if the things inside are broken, what should I do if the master scolds you and me at that time, you still think that you will be beaten less. Besides... the back room is definitely better than their residence in the human world. Still not enough?"

There was not much movement between them talking there, and Jiaci couldn't hear everything, but looking at the expressions on each other's faces, he felt that it might not be very good.

Sure enough, when the young man named Yu Miao looked back for a moment, his already pitiful face looked even more bitter.

"I'm sorry, I just said something wrong, I'll take you somewhere else..." Yu Miao glanced at his senior brother who was staring at him from a distance, and murmured.

"Oh, okay." Jiaci nodded without thinking too much, and followed with his brother.

After walking for a long time, Jiaci saw that the surrounding houses became more and more dilapidated, gradually changing from Pengying Wonderland to Penghu Caimen, and finally stood still in front of a thatched hut on a loess slope.

Looking at the dilapidated house, Yu Miao seemed a little embarrassed, and said bravely: "Uh, the houses in the back room are all piled up with things, and this is the only place left empty. If you don't like it... just stay for two days. I'll change it when I get the rest out." Actually, the others aren't much better than this.

Jia Ci glanced at the crooked door, but waved at Yu Miao in fear.

"It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter, it's better to live here than our house in the village, we're used to it." Jiaci said while showing a friendly smile to Yu Miao.

Yu Miao heaved a sigh of relief when he saw Chang Wang on the side also nodding.

"That's good. If you need anything, please tell me. I will live in the disciple's room at the front..."

"Ok."

So Chang Jiaci and his elder brother lived in Qinghe Gate for the time being.

********

As the saying goes, "The one who comes is the guest", but Jiaci and Chang Wang are very aware of their identities. Such a powerful land is willing to take in the two brothers. Yes, you can't eat free food.

Of course, at first the disciples of the Ministry of Water were not uncommon for them to work. In their eyes, two mortals with no cultivation were no different from useless people. What could they do? For these practitioners who are picky about their work, it is a waste to reward them not to be afraid of being dirty or tired, and to answer no matter how many broken things they throw in the past without complaint, and to respond to calls.

Although they thought about it in their hearts, the self-confessed noble practitioners were unwilling to give these instructions to those two in person, for fear that they would be ridiculed by the outside world for being lazy and lazy, and they would even take advantage of ordinary people, so the task of conveying fell to the most senior. On the shallow Yumiao...

Yu Miao ran to the back room every day, and the Chang family brothers naturally became acquainted with him quickly.When Jiaci was busy, Yu Miao would also help him, coming and going again and again, so that he had a little more understanding of the place he was in.

They did go to the sky, but they didn't really go to the sky. Instead, they came to a place that is a little higher than the realm where ordinary people live, and a little lower than the realm where gods live, which is called the realm of self-cultivation.As the name suggests, the realm of self-cultivation is populated by cultivators. In Yu Miao's words, it is a place where people who cultivate their Qi and realize their true selves live, and then they can ascend to the Tao and transcend the mundane world.

These people need to practice frequently on weekdays, just like ordinary people practicing martial arts, the more they practice, the stronger they become, and the sooner they can become real gods.There are various methods of cultivation, and there are also various schools of cultivation, there are countless big and small ones.For example, Qinghemen, where Jiaci is at the moment, is one of the best among these sects. In addition to the sect master, there are eight divisions in the gate, gold, wood, water, fire, sun, moon, star, and chen, which are divided into eight divisions. The elders come to govern, and there are many disciples in each department, which shows that its influence is profound.And the Xu Feng faction that brought Chang Jiaci here before, according to Yu Miao, is just a little-known Yeluzi sect. If the other party didn't use tricks, it would be impossible to meet their sect master on weekdays .

Although both Jiaci and Chang Wang were confused, they also roughly knew that these people were much stronger than ordinary people and lived much longer.

"I remembered that the village chief seemed to have said that people who could fly came to our village decades ago, and they helped drive away the rice robbers," Chang Wang recalled.

Jiaci scratched his scalp and asked confusedly, "Then my brother and I are dead?"

"No," Yu Miao held Jiaci's wrist, "feel it yourself, you have a pulse." It was strong and healthy.

"But after I fled to Xiaoping Mountain, I went hot and cold, and when I fell asleep, I felt that I was out of breath."

Yu Miao patiently explained to him: "That's because you have inner alchemy in your belly. The monsters on Xiaoping Mountain are actually not very powerful. Many years ago, our sect master was afraid that they would come down to the mortal world to hurt people, so we sealed a barrier on it. High-level monsters will die as soon as they encounter an enchantment. Only some low-level monsters are there. If ordinary people don’t go up the mountain, they can’t come down. I heard from my brother a few days ago that your inner alchemy has body protection However, if it erupts, those low-level monsters will be afraid, so you and your brother were not frozen to death on the mountain in those few days, nor were they killed Eat it up, not to mention that senior brother also said that you won't die so easily after receiving the true energy of the sect master to heal your wounds."

"Infuriating..." Thinking of that handsome man, Jiaci couldn't help touching his stomach carefully. The body temperature there was already normal, but Jiaci seemed to be able to feel a little warmth... His eyes With a hint of shyness inside, he asked softly: "Is your sect master's cultivation level very high?"

This time Yu Miao nodded, and said very forcefully: "Of course! The cultivation of our sect master is unfathomable, otherwise, how could Qinghe Sect have been firmly established as the number one sect in the world of cultivating immortals for hundreds of years? My master said , the sect master is now in the Mahayana stage, maybe one day he will pass the catastrophe and ascend... Ah, you don't understand, it doesn't matter, anyway, the sect master has reached the most powerful level, one step away from the gods little bit."

When Yu Miao said these words, he lost the pitiful spirit he used to wear on his face, his eyes were like lightning, his face was full of red, and his pride was beyond words, which shows how honored he is to be a disciple of Qinghemen .

"Our sect master is not only highly cultivated, but also benevolent and righteous, and often warns everyone in the sect to be humble, compassionate and cautious in words and deeds." Yu Miao continued to praise.

Hearing the blessing, he couldn't help but sighed: "The sect master is really amazing..."
