Hard to be a master

As soon as Liu Siqing left, Guan Jingxuan suddenly smelled a faint fragrance, he twitched his nose slightly, and said to Shen Ziliu: "Xiaoliu, do you smell anything?"

Shen Ziliu, who was standing next to him, sniffed it carefully, shook his head and said, "I didn't smell anything."

Guan Jingxuan took another deep breath, but she didn't smell the fragrance again, and she couldn't help muttering to herself with some doubts: "Could it be an illusion...?"

Before he could get to the bottom of it, Shen Ziliu called out to draw his attention back.

"Master, who was that person just now?"

Out of politeness, when Guan Jingxuan and Liu Siqing were talking, Shen Ziliu stood quietly by the side without interjecting, but he had already had a lot of doubts about this person he had never met but seemed to have a good relationship with Guan Jingxuan.

Guan Jingxuan squatted down by the big pit at the door, took out a small shovel from his sleeve, shoveled up the surrounding snow and filled it into the pit, and said: "Just now that person is Liu Siqing, a Lingshan real person, who entered Kunlun a few years before being a teacher. He is also a cultivator of Tongdao Peak, so he is your uncle in terms of seniority."

Shen Ziliu walked the shovel from Guan Jingxuan's hands very naturally, and said indifferently: "I see that he seems to have a good friendship with the master? Is he also the apprentice of some immortal?"

Guan Jingxuan took out another small shovel, shoveled the snow and said, "Before I became a teacher, I lived in the same courtyard as Xifeng, and they were monks at the same time, so we often went to practice together. For a while, Liu Siqing I often go to Xifeng to learn from each other, and I know him as a teacher, but I can't talk about a deep friendship... As a teacher, I don't know who his master is. In short, it must not be some immortal who has already ascended. I heard that It’s just that he’s a little-known monk in Kunlun, not even a Jindan monk. So it’s really not easy for him to cultivate to where he is today.”

Shen Ziliu said: "Then what does the 'previous words' mentioned by the master just now refer to? The meaning of the master seems to be related to the disciples?"

Guan Jingxuan originally thought that this topic had been perfunctory, but she didn't want Shen Ziliu to notice it, so she said vaguely: "It's not something important, it's just a few words of Liu Siqing's unreliable fortune-telling. You see, even he himself I can't remember, so Xiaoliu doesn't have to worry about it..."

Hearing what he said, Shen Ziliubian didn't ask any more questions.

The master and apprentice worked together, and quickly filled the hole in the doorway. After another snowstorm, it would not be obvious that the door was smashed out of the hole.After packing up the shovel and washing their hands, the master and apprentice returned to the inner room and continued the interrupted topic.

Guan Jingxuan said: "Water Moon Illusion is specially created for monks who are in the transitional period between foundation establishment and alchemy. It takes into account both the improvement of monks' cultivation and the accumulation of experience in the actual use of spells. Because the completion of foundation establishment A monk is only equivalent to having just met the basic requirements for cultivation, and the best way to improve quickly is actual combat."

Hearing the word "actual combat", Shen Ziliu obviously became more focused.

Guan Jingxuan secretly lamented that sword cultivators are indeed madmen in actual combat, and continued: "Many people outside the sect have misconceptions about cultivation, thinking that cultivation is to stay away from the world, to have no desires, demands, fights, fights, or food and drinks. The Dao is important, but it is only a part of cultivation. If a practitioner only pays attention to the cultivation of character, let alone a catastrophe, he will be killed by a random thunderbolt. What's more, a practitioner must go through life and death. There are countless evil spirits who want to wait for the opportunity to snatch the inner alchemy and cultivation base of the cultivator, if the cultivator does not have the means to defend himself and the power to fight back, it will be very dangerous if he goes out."

"Water Moon Illusion is managed by Tianyin Pavilion. Although it is an illusion, the monsters and evil spirits inside are all captured and put in the real world, and most of them are contributed by Wujianfeng disciples. In Water Moon Illusion Both monsters and evil spirits are evil and wild without being tamed. If you encounter them, you don’t have to hesitate, just kill them directly. After killing them, you can get half of their cultivation. It can be kept as a material for refining spirit weapons in the future. It should be noted that since most of these monsters and evil spirits are contributed by Wujianfeng disciples, they are basically not good. If you are unlucky and encounter particularly powerful or grouped enemies , don't be brave and don't love to fight, you must avoid it first, because if you are seriously injured in the water moon illusion, and the person in charge of the illusion does not arrive in time, you may die. It is not too late for a gentleman to take revenge for ten years. It’s not too late to go back and clean them up once you’re done, Xiaoliu, you must remember this, don’t let me worry about it.”

Shen Ziliu nodded and said: "Yes, I have remembered it, Master, don't worry."

Guan Jingxuan said again: "Before entering the Water Moon Illusion, the people in Tianyin Pavilion will give you a piece of jade. If any accident happens in the illusion, you can inject spiritual power into the jade at any time to ask for help from the managers outside. If the jade is damaged, no matter what No matter what the reason is, it will be assumed that the carrier is in danger, and someone will come in and take you out. So you must take good care of the jade and don’t lose it.”

Shen Ziliu asked curiously, "Did Master also go to the Water Moon Illusion to try?"

Having been with Guan Jingxuan for more than two years, let alone fighting, he has never even seen a scene of arguing with others. Shen Ziliu can't imagine Guan Jingxuan fighting at all.

Guan Jingxuan seemed to be recalling some unbearable past events, and said with a distorted expression: "Of course I went there as a teacher, even though it was forcibly thrown in by your ancestor...and your ancestor confiscated my jade before entering..."

Shen Ziliu couldn't help laughing, and said, "That disciple didn't bring jade in either."

Guan Jingxuan coughed softly, and said with a straight face: "Nonsense! I told you just now that you must take good care of the jade. As a teacher, I don't like to be brave like you. Even if I don't have jade, I will put protecting myself as the top priority. Come on, but if you don't bring jade in, I'm afraid you won't be able to sleep peacefully in the past three months as a teacher."

Shen Ziliu muttered in a low voice: "It's not bad to be remembered by Master every day..."

Guan Jingxuan: "Huh?"

Shen Ziliu said: "It's nothing, I was just joking, the disciple will take care of himself, master can rest assured."

Guan Jingxuan nodded with satisfaction, and said: "In the illusion, you may meet fellow practitioners. You can go together or go your own way. If a fellow practitioner is in danger or asks you for help, On the premise of not endangering your own life and safety, you must lend a helping hand. Conversely, if you encounter an unsolvable crisis yourself, you can also ask the fellow practitioners around you for help while waiting for the manager to rescue you. In short, the same sentence , don’t be brave, don’t feel ashamed, saving your life is the most important thing.”
