Hard to be a master

The three masters and apprentices wandered in Mount Emei for three days, checked every water source in the mountain, but found no trace of Shen Ziliu's natal spiritual weapon.On the contrary, I met some reclusive monks along the way, which confirmed that there was indeed a pair of masters and apprentices, Yunruo Shangzun and Zichuan Shangzun, on Mount Emei, but almost no one had actually seen them.

In the afternoon of the third day, the master and apprentice returned to Emei Town and took a rest in the inn.

Guan Jingxuan said: "Since Xiaoliu didn't sense anything, then your natal spiritual weapon should not be here. Although there are still about ten days before the official start of the Dao Discussion Conference in Shushan, but this time we came out to represent Kunlun, It is necessary to go up to the mountain to pay a visit in advance. We will set off today and take a detour from Shunan, and we will pass two Xiaoling Mountains on the way, so you can take a look at them."

Shen Ziliu filled a bowl of jujube and white fungus soup borrowed from the inn's kitchen and handed it to Guan Jingxuan. While motioning for Zilan to do it himself, he said, "We have been running non-stop for the past few days after we came out of Kunlun. Can Master be able to bear it? If it feels hard, When the Dao Discussion Conference is over, we will slowly search for treasure materials, disciples are not in a hurry."

Guan Jingxuan took a sip of tremella soup, the sweetness and consistency were just right for him, and he couldn't help but take another two sips before saying, "Although it's rare for me to go out for a trip, I'm not so delicate. The previous injury is almost healed, This way is nothing."

Seeing what Shen Ziliu wanted to say, Guan Jingxuan looked at him with a smile that was not a smile, and said: "Besides, if you really can't walk anymore, Xiaoliu can take the master with you to guard the sword. The teacher has watched you defend these few times. The sword is safe and secure, so there should be no need to take you as a teacher, right?"

Hearing what Guan Jingxuan said, Shen Ziliu immediately realized that the fact that he had pretended to be unsteady in the wind and insisted on riding with Guan Jingxuan had been exposed. He couldn't help but blushed, coughed dryly and insisted: "It's only natural... If the master is tired, he will tell the disciple that if the disciple has nothing else, he will have more spiritual power."

Guan Jingxuan smiled without saying a word, just lowered his head and drank the soup.

After finishing a bowl of white fungus soup, Zi Lan wiped the corners of her mouth and said seriously, "Master, I have something to say."

Guan Jingxuan looked at him: "What's the matter with Zilan?"

Zi Lan said: "Before leaving Kunlun, my disciple visited Master Wanfeng again. Master Wanfeng told me that if I want to find the treasure of my natal spiritual weapon, I must first go to Mount Emei to visit an old friend of his. Ask for a spiritual weapon. But this matter can only be done by me alone, so the disciple may have to stay here for two more days, and I hope the master will agree."

Guan Jingxuan had no doubts, nodded and said: "This is a big deal, you go ahead and do it. Is there anything I can do for you?"

Zi Lan said: "Don't bother Master, this disciple can handle it."

Guan Jingxuan thought for a while, and said: "Xiaoliu and I took a detour from the south of Shu. If there is no accident, we can reach Shushan in at most four days. Don't rush to chase us after Zi Lan finishes his work, just go directly to Shushan. It doesn't matter who arrives first , they all settled down in Taoyuan Town at the foot of the mountain, and they will go up the mountain after meeting up."

With that said, Guan Jingxuan took out two silver sound transmission rings, handed one to Zi Lan and the other to Shen Ziliu: "This is a new sound transmission ring made by my master before going out. All three rings can communicate with each other. We have one teacher and one apprentice. If you encounter any difficult things, or if your plan changes, you can use it to communicate."

Zi Lan put away the sound transmission ring and said, "I understand."

Half an hour later, the master and the apprentice checked out of the room and went their separate ways.

Guan Jingxuan also traveled to many places outside of Kunlun with his master and brothers before he became a dandan, but most of them went to the east, and rarely came to central Sichuan, so he was not very familiar with the route, so he could only follow the general direction .At sunset, the master and apprentice will rush to the first unnamed Xiaoling Mountain on the way.

Compared with Mount Emei, this mountain can only be called Xiaoling Mountain. Neither the volume of the mountain nor the aura on the mountain can be compared.This mountain is very quiet. There is no one inhabited for dozens of miles below the mountain. There are a lot of birds and beasts living on the mountain, and there are many mountain spirits and wild monsters hidden there, but there are no traces of people.

After walking around the foot of the mountain, the master and apprentice set up a tent to rest by the river beach, preparing to enter the mountain after dawn.Shen Ziliu was a homeless man since he was a child, and he was very good at catching fish. He fished out three lively fish from the river in a short while.Guan Jingxuan wanted to help, but Shen Ziliu sat down beside the tent with a handful of dried fruit stuffed in his hand.

"Master, just help me watch the fire."

Guan Jingxuan chewed the dried fruit, a little helpless and a little funny, and said: "You have already started the fire and set up the pot. You don't need to add more firewood for a while. If you let the teacher watch the fire, you will really just stare at it." caught."

Shen Ziliu, who was squatting by the river killing fish, turned his head and smiled at him, his eyes were full of brilliance that belonged to a young man: "If the disciple is still here and makes the master work hard, it is not filial. Master, you can rest at ease, soon Just fine."

In fact, it didn't matter whether he ate or not, but since Shen Ziliu was happy with it, Guan Jingxuan just let him go, and took out a free book from his sleeve to read.Shen Ziliu's movements were very nimble, before turning two pages of Guan Jingxuan's book, he had already dealt with the fish and walked back to the fire.Guan Jingxuan raised his head from the book, and saw Shen Ziliu taking out various seasonings, onions, ginger and garlic from his sleeves, skillfully throwing them into the boiling pot, then putting the killed crucian carp in, and skewering two of them with twigs. The risen mandarin fish is covered with sauce inside and out, and it is placed obliquely next to the fire to start roasting.

Guan Jingxuan was dumbfounded: "Did you move the kitchen here?"

He was already shocked when he saw Shen Ziliu take out the pot from Qiankun's bag just now, he didn't expect that even the seasoning was prepared so well!

Shen Ziliu smiled a little smugly: "I only brought some simple cooking utensils and tableware. I also brought out two sets of tea sets that Master often uses. The others are always with me. The food outside is not clean and I don't see it." If it suits the taste of the master, the disciple can't bear the suffering of the master."

They even brought tableware and tea sets!

Guan Jingxuan couldn't laugh or cry when he heard it, and was a little moved by his apprentice's thoughtfulness. He wanted to say that there is no need to be so troublesome, but he was afraid of spoiling Shen Ziliu's interest, so he finally said: "Xiao Liu has a heart."

While waiting, the master and apprentice started chatting.Shen Ziliu was full of interest in the natal spiritual weapon, and Guan Jingxuan answered every question he had.

"Master just said that the natal spirit weapon is a necessary thing to ascend to immortality, so if you haven't found your natal spirit weapon, or if the natal spirit weapon is damaged, you can't ascend?

Guan Jingxuan nodded and said: "That's right, although you can use various spiritual weapons to resist the sky thunder when you ascend, the most important thing is to rely on your own spiritual weapon. The only spiritual weapon that can be taken away after the success of the tribulation is yourself. natal spirit weapon."

Shen Ziliu said: "But aren't the natal spiritual artifacts of Yuqing Immortal, Zhengyang Immortal and Qingfeng Immortal still in Kunlun?"

Guan Jingxuan said: "That's because the natal spirit weapons of these three immortals have never recognized their masters with a drop of blood."
