Hard to be a master

The process of obtaining ice soul is much simpler than Shen Ziliu expected, although it looks very dangerous at first.

The black figure that suddenly jumped out of the water was a strange fish with a dark body and a very strange appearance, or it looked like a fish.The head of the strange fish is only the size of an adult's fist, with gills and fins, but its mouth is divided into four parts in a strange way.When it opens its mouth to attack people, the fist-sized head will expand to an unimaginable size like a snake eating, and the sharp teeth in the mouth that extend to the depths of the throat are even more impressive. Makes one's scalp numb.

The body of the strange fish is about one foot long, more like a snake body than a fish body, covered with large and small thorns, but the tail fin is obviously a fish tail.After leaving the pool, the strange fish did not lose its mobility like ordinary stranded fish. On the contrary, it used the flexibility of its body to swim or bounce on the ice with ease and strength.

Shen Ziliu didn't know what this fish was, and he didn't know whether it was because of Bing Po, but facing such an extremely aggressive creature, he pulled out Tun Xiang almost without thinking, and pinched the fish at the same time. He fired a sky fire formula and threw a bunch of fireballs at the strange fish.

When the strange fish rushed out of the water, Wu Siren, who had a poor sense of balance, staggered in fright and fell to the ground, but it was precisely this fall that caused the strange fish flying towards him to hit him. null.After that, Wu Siren couldn't get up from the ice until Shen Ziliu finished solving the strange fish and got the ice porch. Wearing the sachet to protect his waist, he was so embarrassed that he didn't look like a monk in the alchemy period.

Whether there is anyone to help is the same for Shen Ziliu, so he didn't blame Wu Siren, but when he got the ice poker and pulled Wu Siren up who was still sitting on the ground, he asked indifferently: "Why don't you use your soul?" device?"

Wu Siren seemed to still have lingering fears about Fang Cai's battle, while holding Shen Ziliu's hand to stand up, he said in a low voice, "Forget...forget..."

Shen Ziliu didn't say much, and after putting away the Bing Po, he led Wu Siren and left the ice cave together.

Since Wu Siren's mental state didn't seem to be very good, Yufeng said that he might fall off halfway, and Shen Ziliu was unwilling to ride with anyone other than Guan Jingxuan, so the two had to walk back on foot.An hour later, Shen Ziliu and Wu Siren finally returned to the place where they parted ways at the beginning.

At this time, Wu Siren seemed to have finally regained his strength, and stammered to Shen Ziliu: "Hold, I'm sorry, Mr. Shen, it's obviously a task for both of us, but you let you do it alone... I, I usually don't It will be like this..."

Shen Ziliu didn't care at all, he just said: "Have you recovered now? Can you control the wind?"

Wu Siren nodded quickly and said, "Yes, yes."

Shen Ziliu pursed his lips slightly, took out the Bing Po from his sleeve and handed it to Wu Siren, saying: "I still have something to do, I have to go back later, you take the Bing Po back to hand in the task first."

Wu Siren froze for a moment, then hurriedly took Bing Po, raised his head and was about to ask where Shen Ziliu was going, but only saw the back of Shen Ziliu walking away on Zhiqiu Yufeng.

When Shen Ziliu's figure had completely disappeared from sight, Wu Siren, who had been standing there for a long time, squeezed the Qiankun formula in his sleeve to put away the Bing Po, then turned around and walked into a nearby woods to find an open space to sit on, by the way Spread an enchantment around him to hide his figure.

At this moment, Wu Siren and Fang Cai were completely different people, the usual cowardice was completely gone in their eyes, and their expressions were calm and calm, as if someone else was rolling all over the floor just now.After pulling the barrier, he took out a black ring from his sleeve and put it on his middle finger. The ring soon glowed with a faint red light. After a while, a man's voice came from the ring.

"arrive?"

"Well, our group was assigned to Zhongnan Mountain."

"It's not far. Have you found the person who gave the mission?"

"I found it. It's Zhaoli Shangzun. And we have been assigned to a group and have completed the first task."

"So fast? You didn't expose it, did you?"

"With the sachet you gave me, even the Venerable Zhaoli didn't see it, how could it be exposed."

"That's not necessarily the case, just be careful, and don't forget what you are going to do. By the way, since you are in Zhongnanshan, you can help me with something by the way."

……

At the same time, Shen Ziliu, who was going away against the wind, fell on the edge of a cliff.This cliff is not bare, it is surrounded by flowers, plants and shrubs that Shen Ziliu has never seen before, and there is an unknown fruit tree with luxuriant branches and leaves on the edge of the cliff, a small part of the branches stretches out of the cliff, and the branches are pulled by numerous fruits It fell straight down, and the whole tree was shaking slowly when the wind blows, which is really beautiful.Under the cliff is an endless sea of ​​forests, separated by a height of hundreds of feet, people who are afraid of heights will feel weak just standing on the edge of the cliff and looking down.

Shen Ziliu was not afraid of heights at all, so he walked directly to the edge of the cliff and leaned against the fruit tree, took out Guan Jingxuan from his sleeve, put it on his sound transmission ring, and then slowly injected spiritual power into it.

A pair of sound transmission rings will not make a sound when one calls to the other, but only flashes of light.In fact, the called party does not rely on sound or light to know that someone is calling, but can perceive it.Therefore, as long as the party being called is carrying the sound transmission ring, and he is not in an unconscious state, he will not miss the call.

This was Shen Ziliu's first time contacting Guan Jingxuan with the sound transmission ring, and he had to wait a little long, but he didn't mind.When Guan Jingxuan's voice came out from the ring, the irritability that had been entrenched in Shen Ziliu's heart for a whole day dissipated instantly.

"Xiao Liu?"

Hearing Guan Jingxuan's gentle voice, Shen Ziliu relaxed unconsciously, and his expression softened a lot: "Master, it's me."

Guan Jingxuan asked: "Have you arrived yet? Have you found the person you were looking for?"

Shen Ziliu said: "I have arrived a long time ago, and I have found the senior who issued the task. How about you, Master? Why did it take so long to respond?"

Guan Jingxuan said: "I'm still in the medicine house as a teacher."

As soon as he finished speaking, he heard Sun Yumo's voice coming from the ring: "Your apprentice?"

Guan Jingxuan said "Yes", and Shen Ziliu greeted Sun Yumo politely.

Sun Yumo said: "I just sent people away in the morning, and now I'm using the sound transmission ring to contact you again. Why are you two so clingy?"

Guan Jingxuan said: "Xiao Liu is going down the mountain for the first time, of course I, as a master, should care about him."

Sun Yumo sneered, and said, "Before I traveled far away for so long, how come you, a junior, don't know how to care about senior?"

Guan Jingxuan said with a smile: "Brother, you are already in the stage of transformation, do you have the nerve to compare yourself with others?"

Sun Yumo snorted, and said, "I'm too lazy to talk to you, you master and apprentice will be tired of it."

After saying this, Sun Yumo's voice was never heard again. Shen Ziliu curled his lips slightly and asked, "Uncle Sun is gone?"

Guan Jingxuan said: "Let's go, let's continue talking. How do you feel on the first day?"

So Shen Ziliu told Guan Jingxuan what happened that day in detail. He is actually not a talkative person. People can only rely on sound transmission to contact, he couldn't help wanting to talk to Guan Jingxuan for a while, even if the two had only parted for less than a day.

After hearing Shen Ziliu's words, Guan Jingxuan first expressed his amazement at how quickly he completed the task, and then said: "It sounds like the little monk with you hasn't found the state of the trial yet, Xiaoliu, don't worry about it because Lose your temper if you think people are slowing you down."

Shen Ziliu said: "In the beginning, the disciple was indeed a little... restless. But it's not all because of him, it's because the disciple didn't adjust well, and it won't happen in the future."

Guan Jingxuan smiled and said: "That's good. Now that your group has completed the task ahead of schedule, you can go to Zhongnan Mountain for the next two days. I went to Zhongnan Mountain once with your ancestor before as a teacher. Remember that There is a valley next to it, where many delicious wild fruits grow, and there are many small animals that cannot be seen in Kunlun."

Shen Ziliu said: "Master, the only thing you remember is Xiaodong—huh?"

While talking, Shen Ziliu suddenly heard a crisp sound above his head, like the sound of a branch being snapped, he immediately raised his head vigilantly, but before he had time to see what was on his head, his eyes went dark. A furry thing hit him straight in the face.

The weight of that thing was not light, and when it was hit, Shen Ziliu felt that his neck was about to break, so he couldn't help but staggered two steps to the side, and almost fell off the cliff with his foot in the air.Fortunately, as a sword cultivator, his agility and reaction were far superior to ordinary people. Before he could stand still, he swung the unknown object on his head with a palm, and when the object was thrown out, it made a sound. strange cry.

On the other side, Guan Jingxuan heard Shen Ziliu's voice stop abruptly, and suddenly heard a strange voice, and asked anxiously, "What's wrong with Xiaoliu?"

Shen Ziliu, who had just stood firm, wanted to draw his sword, but when he saw the black and white mass in front of him, with innocent and wronged eyes written in his eyes, he forcibly withdrew his sword-drawing hand.

"Master...do you want a gift?"

Guan Jingxuan heard that he didn't understand what he said, and asked, "What gift?"

Shen Ziliu looked at the ground a few steps away. After being thrown out by him, he didn't get angry or run away. Instead, he rolled on the spot. The unknown creature didn't know how to describe it for a while.He had never seen this kind of creature before. It was chubby and chubby, with black and white fur, sharp claws and sharp teeth, but it didn't seem to be aggressive. Instead, it held its head in its front paws and rolled around on the ground. The appearance of being coquettish.

"A... small animal that fell from the sky."

Guan Jingxuan at the other end visibly cheered up when he heard the word "little animal", and said enthusiastically, "What little animal?"

Shen Ziliu considered it carefully, and said uncertainly, "Probably a...bear?"

After a period of silence on the other side, Guan Jingxuan's calm voice came: "Xiaoliu, don't make trouble, bears are not small animals anymore. Its nature is freedom and wildness, and the wild is where it should stay. It is best to keep it in captivity. Cruel, selfish, undesirable - so you must never bring it back."

Shen Ziliu: "...Oh."

In fact, Master, you only like cute little animals!

A long time later, when Guan Jingxuan learned that what he had missed was not the bear he thought he had missed, but an iron-eating beast, his stomach turned green with regret.
