Hard to be a master

After that day, Ling Xifeng never came to see Guan Jingxuan again, or even showed up in Kunlun again. I don't know if he went out again or went to retreat, and he didn't even show up on the day of the spiritual power test.Guan Jingxuan has been used to friends disappearing in seclusion every now and then, so she didn't find it strange, but on the day of the spiritual power test, Ling Xifeng's master, the current peak master Rou Qing of Wujian Peak, Mrs. Sendai surprised Guan Jingxuan and others a little.

The Kunlun Mountains stretch for thousands of miles and have several towering peaks, but the monks in Kunlun are mainly concentrated on the three highest and adjacent peaks.

Tianyin Pavilion is located in Qunyu Peak. It was established by Qingfeng Immortal Song Ziqian. The disciples in the pavilion take music as their weapon. They have unmatched attainments in rhythm, and most of their spiritual weapons are musical instruments.Compared with other disciples of Kunlun, the monks of Tianyin Pavilion are mostly aloof and do not like to care about external affairs. Their words and deeds seem to reveal this message to the outside world: mortals, don't talk to me.The reason why the monks in Tianyin Pavilion are proud is probably because they are indeed very good, and it is difficult for ordinary people to see them. They are more friendly to the fellow practitioners in this pavilion.And such an incomparable talent like Ling Xifeng still has a lot of popularity among the many high-cold female cultivators in Tianyin Pavilion.

Both Wujian Peak and Tongdao Peak are named after the mountain they are located in, but the gap between them is huge.

Wujian Peak was founded by Zhengyang Immortal Venerable Duan Xihua. The Zhengyang Sword, the natal spiritual weapon left behind by him when he ascended, is still stuck on the top of Wujian Peak and no one inherits it.Among the three peaks, Wujian Peak has the highest requirements for the entry of disciples. First, the monks who enter Wujian Peak must be sword cultivators, and secondly, they must be sword cultivators who can control high-grade spiritual swords. Finally, they must be able to successfully pass the entrance of Wujian Peak sword array.Therefore, most of the disciples of Wujian Peak actually practiced in Tongdao Peak at the beginning, and then transferred to Wujian Peak after their cultivation was strong enough to control the high-grade spirit sword.

Thus, a problem arises.In Kunlun, unless a monk is expelled from the school or authorized by the master, once a monk has studied under someone, he cannot learn from others, and a monk who betrays his teacher is directly equivalent to defecting from Kunlun.Therefore, there are many monks whose masters do not belong to Wujian Peak, after worshiping in Wujian Peak, apart from occasionally receiving warm guidance collectively, most of the time they can only improve themselves through self-exploration or discussion with fellow practitioners.Fortunately, everyone who chooses to worship Wujian Peak is a madman who is practicing, and they love this way of promotion.Of course, there are also some lucky ones, that is, as the master, he first transferred from Tongdao Peak to Wujian Peak. If the original disciples also join Wujian Peak in the future, they can continue to accept the guidance of their own masters, and the practice will naturally get twice the result with half the effort .As for Ling Xifeng, who never apprenticed to a teacher after entering Kunlun, but relied on his own groping to master the high-grade spirit sword, and finally directly worshiped under Wen Kang's sect, since the establishment of Kunlun Immortal Sect, this is the only one.

As for Tongdaofeng, the initial meaning was "inclusiveness, sharing the same path but taking different paths".Tongdao Peak has the largest number of monks, the largest span of monks, and the only one whose founder is still alive.Although Tongdao Peak looks like a shelter for monks left over from the other two peaks, in fact Tongdao Peak has already ascended four immortals besides the founder Qi Shu, which is more than Wujian Peak and Tianyin Pavilion combined one.It is said that Qi Shu had already reached the stage of crossing the catastrophe, but he accidentally broke his natal spiritual weapon Fenghua sword when he ascended to the heavenly catastrophe, so he stayed in the mortal world until now, and there is no possibility of ascension.Even so, regardless of his cultivation or popularity, Qi Shu is still the pinnacle of existence in the entire Kunlun.Among the seven immortals who ascended from Kunlun, apart from Yuqing Immortal, Zhengyang Immortal, and Qingfeng Immortal who were at the same time as him, two of the remaining four are his apprentices, which also shows Qi Shu's vision and ability.

On the seventh day of the seventh lunar month, it was rare for Guan Jingxuan not to sleep in and woke up early.Shen Ziliu got up earlier than him. Just as Guan Jingxuan got dressed and got off the couch, Shen Ziliu stepped into the room with a steaming pot of minced meat porridge.The ingredients for making porridge are all leftovers from Guan Jingxuan who came to replenish Shen Ziliu’s body before. Shen Ziliu watched Guan Jingxuan cook porridge once and silently wrote down the cooking method. After trying it twice, the porridge he made was better than Guan Jingxuan’s. It's even thicker and more delicious.After that, Guan Jingxuan never worried about breakfast every day.

After the two said good morning to each other, Shen Ziliu filled two bowls of porridge while Guan Jingxuan went out to wash up, and brought out a small plate of fried lotus root from the kitchen, then obediently sat at the table and waited for Guan Jingxuan to come back.In the past, Shen Ziliu had never cooked before, and he had no chance to cook. Now he has learned from Guan Jingxuan, who has limited cooking skills, for a few days, and the food he makes still looks good, and the taste is better than Guan Jingxuan's. Stronger, it seems that he has some talent for cooking.

After Bigu, Guan Jingxuan hardly had two serious meals. The last time he sat at the table and ate with bowls and chopsticks was when he went to Mucheng with Ling Xifeng.But since Shen Ziliu recovered enough to be able to go to the ground, as long as Guan Jingxuan doesn't eat, the child won't eat either.Considering that Shen Ziliu was too young to be hungry when he was growing up, Guan Jingxuan, who had been sleeping until she woke up naturally after living in Qingmengyuan, also had to struggle to get up every day, and eat three meals a day regularly with him.

Shengxiantai is in Tongdao Peak, and using the technique of controlling the wind used to take less than a cup of tea.It was still early after the two of them had breakfast, Guan Jingxuan waited for Shen Ziliu to pack up the dishes and come back from the kitchen, then waved to him at the desk in the bedroom.

Shen Ziliu walked over without knowing why, but saw a bronze mirror on the desk that he hadn't seen before.

Guan Jingxuan pushed Shen Ziliu onto the stool beside the desk and sat down, took out a wooden comb with orchid carvings from his sleeve, and skillfully spread Shen Ziliu's hair that was randomly gathered together and began to comb.

"Today's spiritual power test is considered a relatively important event in Kunlun. There are many people tested and many monks who came to watch. In fact, Xiaoliu is very beautiful, but if he dresses too casually, he will inevitably be punished by someone else." Some guys accused you of being impolite. Although I think it is unlikely that you will be able to pass, if it is really like what Yue Qi Xianzun said, it is very important to leave a good impression on those who may become your master in the future. "

Shen Ziliu turned his head when he heard the words, frowned slightly and said, "The impression I left on you...is it bad?"

Guan Jingxuan burst out laughing, turned Shen Ziliu's head back and continued to comb his hair, and said solemnly: "Not bad, not bad, when we first met Xiao Liu was like a stranded little mermaid, it was pretty. "

"Hey……"

Although he knew that Guan Jingxuan was deliberately teasing him, Shen Ziliu was still full of black lines.

Guan Jingxuan laughed very happily for a while, and then said: "Originally, boys should not tie their hair until they are 15 years old, but there are not so many rules in Kunlun. Xiaoliu, you look very good, so you should wear it A more energetic hairstyle reveals your face. Today I will give you a half-up hairstyle for the time being, and I will give you a more beautiful one when you are 15 years old."

Shen Ziliu hesitated for a moment, then whispered: "Actually, I..."

Probably because his voice was too low, Guan Jingxuan didn't hear it. After tying up the ribbon to tie his hair, he patted Shen Ziliu's shoulder to interrupt him, saying, "Look, isn't it pretty?"

Shen Ziliu stopped talking and didn't continue, instead looking into the bronze mirror, he couldn't help being a little dazed.

Ever since he could remember, before he met Guan Jingxuan, Shen Ziliu had a very hard life every day, and he didn't have the pleasure of looking in the mirror.His impression of his own appearance was limited to a quick glimpse while drinking water by the river or taking a bath.The reflections in my memory are all black, thin, unkempt, and neither human nor ghost, and they do not coincide with the half-aged boy with clear features, beautiful features, star pupils and bright teeth reflected in the bronze mirror at this time.

Guan Jingxuan moved closer to Shen Ziliu, and said with a smile, "How is it? Do you like it?"

Shen Ziliu looked at Guan Jingxuan who was also looking at him in the mirror, and a trace of complicated emotions suddenly surged in his heart.

In these years of struggling to survive in the troubled times, Shen Ziliu has seen and experienced all kinds of ugliness and evil in human nature, so although he is still young, he has long lost the innocence of his peers.If you want to get it, you have to pay, people don't kill themselves.Even those so-called "good people" do good deeds, don't they all do it for peace of mind and to gain a good reputation for themselves?Then why did Guan Jingxuan, who was not related to him for no reason, work so hard to rescue him, and why should he be so kind to him for no reason?

Shen Ziliu had many doubts in his heart, but when he saw the gentle smile in Guan Jingxuan's eyes, he forcefully pushed back these doubts.He is greedy for the current life, where he doesn't need to be exposed to wind and rain, doesn't need to starve and suffer cold, and can still be treated with tenderness.Even if this person's tenderness is just sugar-coated with poison|drugs, even if this person just wants to use him in the end—even though Shen Ziliu doesn't think there is anything in him that Guan Jingxuan can benefit from, he is still reluctant to expose this illusion , Willingly walk into the depths of the trap.

Lowering his eyes slightly, Shen Ziliu said: "Well, I like it very much."

"Just like it. The time is almost up, let's go slowly."

Guan Jingxuan didn't seem to notice Shen Ziliu's strangeness, and reached out to take his hand, pulling Shen Ziliu outside.
