lead fades away

As soon as Daoist Qi Xun left, Qingshi immediately put aside his obedient and obedient disciple appearance, sat down beside Han Shuo, and said in a mysterious way, "Speaking of which, Daoist Qi Xun once wanted to send that girl to be your disciple. !"

"Huh?" Han Shuo was slightly taken aback, then turned to look at Qingshi.

"A year ago, he asked my aunt to be a lobbyist." Qing did not hide anything, and truthfully reported how he met the girl surnamed Xue at the market on the first peak and what he said to Fairy Fengxi over again.

"It seems that I'm really a sweet potato here." Han Shuo sneered after hearing this.

"You are the Supreme Elder in the transformation stage, and you have no apprentices or companions, how can you not be sweet?" Qing Shi pouted.

Han Shuo knew that Qingshi took the opportunity to mock She Ji for giving him away, so he didn't feel annoyed. He just put the topic aside and said, "There is still more than a month to go before the grand opening ceremony. In a few days There may be more people coming to the door, so you have to be prepared."

"Are you determined to only teach swordsmanship and not accept apprentices?" Qing Shi asked.

"Yeah." Han Shuo nodded, "Even if I meet the right one, I'll observe it for a few years before talking."

"Understood." Qing Shi also nodded.

"Also, I don't want women in the Elder's Hall. You should also remember this when you go to the steward's hall to select the servant disciples. Don't let a bunch of female disciples come in." Han Shuo added.

Qing Shi couldn't help the corners of his mouth twitching slightly, but he didn't ask too much, and quickly nodded again, "Sure, I'll do it."

"Women are easy to cause trouble." Han Shuo still explained.

"There is another person, I also greeted you, don't forget." Qing Shi reminded.

"Huh?" Han Shuo was stunned for a while before remembering that Qingshi was talking about that disciple named Su, he couldn't help but frowned, and then sighed quickly, "No matter how much you hate him, let me find him first." A reason to throw someone out?"

Qing Shi chuckled, "I didn't force you to drive people away now, as long as you remember this matter, as for the reason - if you can't find it, you can do it."

Han Shuo gave Qing Shi a displeased look, but said nothing, apparently acquiescing to his bad behavior.

——When I mentioned this matter last time, I still said that I need to identify it by myself, but this time I will directly agree to it.

——This person, as long as his heart is biased, he will naturally stand aside.

——Of course, Xian Chumen has a lot of foundation-building disciples, and those like Su Fang are not enough. Elder Han didn't take him as a matter of fact at all.

Qing Shi slandered in his heart, but as a beneficiary, he would not be so stupid as to express such ungrounded thoughts.After chatting with Han Shuo a few more things about the Elder Hall, Qingshi got up and went back to the medicine field, continuing to work on the spiritual herbs and medicines.

Because Han Shuo didn't want to toss around as soon as he returned to the sect, he only sent two sound transmission talismans to Zhenjun Hengchu and the head of Shisanchu, and made an appointment to talk about Xuantian Immortal Realm tomorrow.Qingshi also imitated Fairy Fengxi and sent Zhang Chuan Yinfu, telling him that he and Elder Han had returned safely, but he couldn't get away temporarily and couldn't go to meet him immediately.

The next morning, Han Shuo went to see Zhenjun Hengchu and Thirteenth Chu alone. Qingshi also slept until he woke up naturally and left the cave to report to Fairy Fengxi that he was safe on the fourth peak.

Seeing Fairy Fengxi, Qingshi took the initiative to report to Xuanziling that he had accepted the brothers and sisters of the Yan family and had taken Qingwu into use, but Fairy Fengxi just sighed with emotion and stopped mentioning this topic, and turned to Qing Shi said, "You don't know yet, Taoist She Ji became obsessed, his meridians were damaged, and he was sent to the back mountain to recuperate."

"Oh?!" Qingshi was indeed taken aback, but what surprised him was not She Ji's retreat and self-cultivation, but that it happened so quickly, and it happened when he and Han Shuo were away.

"I went the day before yesterday, and the two Nascent Soul elders personally escorted them." Fairy Fengxi deliberately emphasized the word "escort".

"Could this be the explanation given to you by the head?" Qing Shi asked pretending to be puzzled, "Why does it sound a bit strange? If this is an explanation--it's too vague, no, it's too heavy, right?"

"It does have something to do with me, but it's not what you think it is." Fairy Fengxi curled her lips, "It's not a day or two that Daoist She Ji's meridians were damaged, but he kept it a secret. No one noticed. This time, because the conflict between me and him intensified, and his behavior was really weird, the head of the sect asked the elders in the sect to come forward to investigate, only to find that his cultivation base had fallen to the early stage of Jindan, and he would be broken at any time. Dan's danger."

"Ah?!" Qing Shi immediately widened his eyes and continued to act surprised.

"However, that bastard still blamed this matter on me. He must have said that the fight with me when he competed with me for the position of the fourth peak leader left him with a dark wound!" Fairy Fengxi said angrily, "His grandma Hey, when he was fighting skills back then, he was only at the middle stage of Jindan, if he had left a hidden wound at that time, how could he be promoted to the queen of alchemy later?!"

"It's so vicious, you are half dead and want to pour dirty water on you!" Qing Shi also scolded in agreement.

"This is what people are doing, and the sky is watching. If you do too much unrighteousness, you will die!" Fairy Fengxi snorted coldly.

——The heavens have no time to care about these things!

Of course, Qingshi would not show the sneer in his heart, and just continued to speak ill of Taoist She Ji according to Fairy Fengxi's temper, and asked if the door wanted to find out the reason for the fall of Taoist She Ji's cultivation base.

However, Fairy Fengxi didn't know much about this matter. After all, she was bitten by Daoist She Ji. If she wanted to keep her innocence, she had to avoid suspicion and put on a high-minded attitude of staying out of the matter.

Qingshi didn't stay in the fourth peak for too long, and talked with Fairy Fengxi for a while, letting her vent all the anger in her stomach, then got up to say goodbye, and went back to Han Shuo's cave.

Qingshi's going to Fairy Fengxi's place is just a routine to report to the elders that he is safe, and what he wants to see now is Shen Chenzhou.However, due to the subtlety of Han Shuo's attitude towards Shen Chenzhou, if he found out that he ran to "get tired" with Shen Chenzhou as soon as he returned to the sect, what kind of meaningless thoughts would he have if he didn't keep things together?In order not to cause undue trouble to this guy who is the only friend in Xiantrumen, Qingshi can only send Zhang Chuanyinfu to remind him a few words, and then find a chance to discuss it carefully in a few days.

When he returned to the cave, Han Shuo hadn't returned yet, and Wang Shuo was still sulking because he was hiding in the stone room because of the sealing of the five senses.Qing Shi didn't bother to coax it, and he didn't think he should do it by himself-if he really wanted to investigate, he was also a victim!

Qing Shi put Han Shuo and Wang Shuo, the two crescents, out of his mind for the time being, and dug out the wine jar that he had bought before from under the magic circle at the corner of the medicine field, opened it, and it was broken again as expected .He was not impatient at all, and directly threw the failed wine and jars aside, prepared the wine-making equipment and corresponding spiritual plants according to the method he had just learned from the book slips, and operated step by step with the most standard method.

When Qingshi sealed the mouth of the ten jars of new wine and buried them in the ground, Han Shuo also came back with a gloomy face.

"Hey, what happened? Why do you have such a face?" Qingshi buried the last wine jar, and while using a water diversion formula to clean his fingers, he got up and asked Han Shuo.

"Something happened inside the door." Han Shuo replied coldly.

"It can't be the matter of Daoist She Ji?" Qing Shi raised his eyebrows.

"How do you know?" Han Shuo was slightly taken aback.

"I went to the fourth peak, my aunt told me." Qing Shi shrugged, "It is said that Daoist She Ji insisted on her damage to his cultivation—well, in this way, he understands why You plotted against me, you just want to vent your anger on me if you can't get revenge on my aunt!"

"Don't worry, he will never do anything to you again." Han Shuo went to the table with a cold face and sat down, "His meridian is damaged, and the possibility of repairing it is extremely low, and he has been imprisoned in the Houshan Siguo Cliff , It is estimated that it will be difficult to come out again after death."

"Hey?!" Qing Shi was really surprised at the moment, "Didn't his meridian damage cause his cultivation base to plummet? Why does it sound like punishment, and it's an extremely heavy one?!"

"The reason why his meridians were damaged is not clear, but in order to repair the damaged meridians, he practiced the evil sect's exercises, and even committed evil things that are beyond the tolerance of heaven! Forbidden to cross the cliff forever is the lightest punishment. According to the sect's rules, his cultivation should have been abolished and expelled into the lower realms! But because he is the only successor of his master, and his cultivation has plummeted and it is difficult to recover, this left him with a glimmer of hope, so that he can still fight A chance of life." Han Shuo said coldly.

——This is really self-inflicted!

Li Shi was speechless for a moment.

"Then what about his disciples, are they also implicated by him?" Qing Shi didn't want to talk too much about Taoist She Ji, so he changed the topic slightly.

"Several of She Ji's disciples have been detained, and the specific treatment depends on the results of the interrogation." Han Shuo said indifferently, "The mundane affairs of the third peak are temporarily taken over by the master of the Dan hall, but the affairs of the alchemy hall are also very heavy. And soon there will be new disciples entering the peak, and the sect will select a new peak master as soon as possible."

Qing Shi sighed thoughtfully, put his arms around Han Shuo's neck and sat on his lap, "When I heard about this at my aunt just now, I thought it was enjoyable and deserved it, but now I feel it again. Pretty boring."

"It's the entire Xianchu Clan who will be humiliated by this incident. The Thirteenth Chu side must try to suppress the matter, but gossip and gossip will definitely be unavoidable. Maybe Fengxi will be blamed for a while." Han Shuo hugged Qingshi, and said in a low voice, "However, this scapegoat will not come in vain, and the door will definitely compensate her accordingly. You should also go over to persuade her a few more words on weekdays, so that she can bear it as long as she can, and don't be angry because of a moment of anger. You are really being blamed. Of course, you should not be too gloating, at least don't show it."

"Don't worry, I understand." Qing Shi nodded in response.

Han Shuo didn't mention the matter of Xuantian Immortal Realm. Although Han Shuo didn't shy away from Qingshi at all when talking about Wuyou in Xuanziling's winter palace, but when it comes to the interests of the sect, Han Shuo obviously doesn't want to let Qingshi participate. .But Qingshi was not interested in this kind of thing at all, Han Shuo didn't mention it, but he was still so happy.

Just after that, Han Shuo and Qingshi discussed the matter of the Elder Hall again.

"Zhenjun Hengchu and Thirteenth Chu both felt that I didn't want to formally accept disciples, so I might as well spend some energy to integrate the sword cultivators in the sect and give advice together. Don't limit the disciples entering the palace to the first peak." Han Shuo said, "But I think it's a mixed bag, and the number of people is too much. Can you help me solve it?"

——You don’t argue, but they offered it.

Qingshi made some calculations, and asked, "You agree with the proposals of Zhenjun Hengchu and the sect leader, but you don't want to accept them all?"

"Of course, is it possible that I can really bring all the sword cultivators of the entire sect into the hall? Then the threshold of my elder hall is too low!" Han Shuo said, "but like in the first peak The selection is too troublesome, and it's not easy to transfer this matter to other people, if someone pushes in a few poor juniors, wouldn't I be pissed to death!"

"Well...you definitely don't want to accept disciples in the Qi-refining period, and you can get rid of a large number of people with your cultivation..." Qingshi rolled his eyes and quickly made up his mind, "Let's not choose people, but choose swords instead. how?"

"Choose a sword?" Han Shuo was taken aback.

"Let those disciples who want to be sword repairers send their own swords, so that you can learn from others with your sword." Qing Shi explained.

"Too one-sided, isn't it?" Han Shuo frowned, "And not all disciples who want to be sword cultivators can hold a spirit sword. For example, your friend named Shen is not a sword cultivator. His hand There may not be a sword in it, and even if there is, it may not be suitable for him."

"If he doesn't even have a suitable sword for you, you can screen him out from the candidate list and don't care about me—no, it should be the face of Daoist Qixin." Qing Shi said solemnly, " Seriously, Elder Han, do you think a cultivator who doesn't even have a sword can be regarded as a sword cultivator, and dare to say that he has the heart to cultivate swords?"

Han Shuo pondered, narrowed his eyes quickly, nodded and said, "You're right, just looking at his sword and knowing who he is is enough."

"Of course, sword tasting can only be done in the first round. In the end, you still have to meet the real master, so as not to be fooled by the trick of Li Daitao stiff, stealing the day and changing the day." Qing Shi added.

"You can arrange this matter." Han Shuo said, "Go to the management hall and send a message to let the disciples in the sect know about it, and give them a little time to prepare... Well, it will be done around mid-February." OK."

"Mid-February?" Qing Shi touched his nose in embarrassment.

"Why, is there something wrong?" Han Shuo asked suspiciously.

"No, I'm just counting the time." Qing Shi curled his lips and said, "I planned to retreat once in a few days, but now that there are more things, I don't know if I can spare time."

"Retreat?" Han Shuo was stunned for a moment, then frowned and said, "Are you going to be promoted, or is your body not right?"

"It's just ordinary cultivation." Qing Shi said, "It will take five days at least, and it will not exceed ten days at most. The main reason is that I haven't practiced very seriously recently, so I need to clean up the accumulated turbidity in my body."

"...You really have trained your body to the extreme." Han Shuo said expressionlessly.

"How else do you have such icy muscles and bones, and a flexible figure?" Qing Shi half-jokingly rolled up his sleeves, revealing his delicate arms like bamboo shoots.

"Then you can concentrate on cultivation." Han Shuo raised the corners of his mouth, stretched out his hand and pinched Qing Shi's cheek, "You can ask Yu Wang to do the selection of candidates, and he, the deacon of the Elder Hall, can't be a white-collar worker, right?"

"Farewell, let me do it." Qing Shi shook his head, "Publish the news first, and let them deliver the sword at the beginning of next month. The more than ten days left in the middle is enough for me to retreat, and it is also enough for me to retreat." They have prepared the spirit sword. If you think this method is feasible, you might as well set a time for the election, and I will go to the management hall to announce this matter today."

"Alright, then you can work hard." Han Shuo nodded, thought for a while, and said, "The election time is set on the [-]th day of February, three days, from the [-]th to the [-]th day, and the primary election will be announced on the [-]th. result."

"Just remember to repay me for my hard work." Qingshi snorted and stood up from Han Shuo's lap, "By the way, I have to go down the mountain again, and it may take a long time to come back, so don't wait gone."

"What are you doing down the mountain?" Han Shuo asked immediately.

"Go to Fangshi to buy spirit wine for Wangwang! Is it really true that he can't come out of the cave like this?! I still expect it to protect me when I retreat!" Qing Shi pouted.

Han Shuo laughed, "Don't spoil it too much."

"It should be that you don't bully it too much, it is an ancient spirit beast anyway!" Qingshi gave Han Shuo a supercilious look, turned and walked towards the forbidden exit.

After leaving Han Shuo's cave, Qingshi went directly to the steward's hall.

In fact, preparations are not limited to the selection of disciples to enter the palace, preparations must be made for the corresponding chores, disciples on duty, and household furnishings needed in the palace.Although a general plan had been prepared years ago, the preparations at that time were aimed at only a few disciples from the first peak entering the temple.Right now, the number of disciples entering the hall is obviously increasing a lot. Even if they still live in the original cave, the hall of elders has to provide them with a room to rest, and the corresponding furniture and furnishings have to be added accordingly. The number of handymen to serve the disciples entering the palace should be recruited a few more. After all, not every monk likes to take care of everything by himself. Since he was a child, he has been used to being served by others. Not a minority.

After arranging all the official and mundane affairs in the steward's hall, and seeing them make an announcement about Han Shuo's selection of disciples from the Elder Hall and posting it on the announcement wall outside the steward's hall, Qing Shi breathed a sigh of relief, turned and left Guanshitang, go to the Fangshi down the mountain to buy spirit wine.

Although it was under the pretense of buying spiritual wine for Wangshuo, Qingshi did not only buy wine at Dengxianlou, the grade of wine also varies from low to high.In fact, he has a stubborn temper when doing things lightly. Since he wants to brew spirit wine, he must brew it.It’s just that he understands that everything can’t be done overnight, let alone working behind closed doors; he doesn’t expect to brew the top-quality wine in Dengxian Tower in a short period of time, and he doesn’t intend to copy the wine-making steps recorded in the letter; Contrast, eventually evolved its own set of rules and regulations. ——However, we still need to retreat first.

——There is nothing more important than completely refining this body right now.

Qing Shi didn't delay in the market, bought some high and low spirit wines, then finished the purchase and returned to the sect.
