Salted fish master was forced to accept disciples

Xi Tao looked at the brocade box in her hand and sighed silently, the master and apprentice didn't like to speak clearly.

Each of them dropped an ambiguous sentence and left without hesitation, leaving Monk Zhang Er confused.

He had no choice but to put the brocade box in the red lotus ring, and on the day Qing Ling returned to the Heavenly Court, he would hand it over to Qing Ling according to Si Cheng's words, which was regarded as repaying Si Cheng's debt for the peach blossom cake.

...Who made him hungry.

Xi Tao cupped her hands at Xuan Xing Hejun, turned around and wanted to leave, but saw black clouds billowing in the Nine Heavens, thunder and lightning, and a strong wind.

Xitao's silky black hair and the hem of his clothes were slightly blown by the strong wind. He squinted his eyes slightly, and picked up a folding fan to block out the strong wind.

You don't need to ask him to know who did it. The one who can stir up such a storm in the heaven must be the demon king, and he is here to make trouble again.

After his ascension, he has been doing nothing in the heavenly court for 500 years. During this period, he heard a lot of secret gossip, and this Demon Lord is one of the gossip.

He heard that Mozun was born as a demon, a natural demon, not under the control of heaven, and not bound by the six realms, even the king of heaven has nothing to do with him.

Although one is righteous and the other is evil, the Heaven Realm and the Demon Realm do not have such frequent conflicts, but this Demon Lord likes to come to the Heavenly Court to provoke when he has nothing to do, making the heavenly soldiers and generals miserable.

Xitao heard that this demon king also found a high-sounding reason for his troubles. He said that Tiandao robbed his master.

Who dares to be a master to the devil who was conceived and born by heaven and earth?Xi Tao really admires this person, if there is such a person, he must meet for a while.

The Demon Lord used this as a reason to trouble the Heavenly Court time and time again, either to pollute the Tianhe River with some chaotic water today, or to send demon soldiers to kidnap the immortals to the Demon Realm to force them to become demons tomorrow.

If the immortals refused to become demons, he would not kill them, but plucked their hair before releasing them.

After these celestial beings came back, they had no face to see other celestial lords, and they often couldn’t retreat. They would come out to see people again when their hair grew back. Now there are still a few celestial lords who are retreating under the guise of cultivation in the heavenly court. , everyone has long been used to the strangeness, and they all turn a blind eye and close their eyes, just pretending not to know.

All in all, this demon king has a lot of tricks, and he doesn't stop for a day, but he is very good at fighting. The soldiers and generals went to encircle and suppress the demon world several times but failed to attack the demon world. There is really nothing they can do about him.

In the end, Tianjun had to change his strategy and sent someone to negotiate with him, hoping that he would stop messing with the immortals, but the demon was very stubborn, and he only had one sentence from the beginning to the end, returning the master to him.

His request was really unreasonable. Xitao didn't believe in the existence of this person at first. He thought it was probably just an excuse used by the devil to make trouble, but he only knew once when Yuanfeng leaked his words. It turns out that Tianting really once There was such a fairy, and that fairy was the master of the Demon Lord, but that fairy had already lost his soul and died in order to save the Demon Lord, and disappeared in the world, and the Demon Lord watched him disappear into ashes. of.

Although Yuan Feng refused to say any more, Xi Tao still doesn't know who the master of the demon king is, and he doesn't know how this master died, but since he has been wiped out, he is completely gone , how could Tianjun return him to Demon Lord?

In doing so, the Demon Lord is just deceiving himself and others.

It's fine if you say he's deceiving himself and others, but he still wants to bully others.

Over the years, it was extremely frustrating to cause the gods to worry about him, and Xi Tao was often woken up by the thunder in his sleep, suffering unspeakably.

Xitao put down the folding fan when the wind and lightning calmed down a bit. He shook his head helplessly. In this world, it is not easy to be a master. It seems that without one or two blackened apprentices, one is not a good master. .

He looked over, looked at the billowing black clouds, unfolded his folding fan and sighed: "Many disputes are all because of a master-student relationship, it seems that you must not accept apprentices casually, but luckily I have not accepted apprentices in these years. "

He couldn't help but rejoice in his heart that as long as he didn't have an apprentice, he could still be a free salted fish.

He smiled heartily, put away the folding fan and patted the palm of his hand, and said with a smile: "Wutu is light, ruthless, debt-free, and worry-free!"

Mr. Xuan Xinghe stood aside, glanced at him with secretiveness, then looked at the black cloud with lightning and thunder in the distance, and remained silent.

"If that's the case, I'll go back first." Xi Tao cupped her hands to Mr. Xuan Xinghe, and she turned and left lightly in Su Yi Ruoxue.

"Wait." Lord Xuan Xinghe stopped him, walked over to him and said, "Immortal Lord Xitao, Tianjun has a task for you."

Xi Tao was taken aback, "What task?"

He has been salting fish for so many years, and Tianjun has indulged him for so many years. He suddenly heard that Tianjun had a task for him, and he was still a little uncomfortable.

Master Xuan Xinghe said without any ups and downs, "Heavenly Lord said that villains from the Three Realms are rampant recently, and they need to be carefully controlled."

Thinking of what the immortals said just now, Xitao couldn't help but nodded slightly. There are too many apprentices who have committed crimes recently, and they really need to be taken care of.

Lord Xuan Xinghe glanced at him, and said calmly: "So Tianjun decided to order Immortal Xitao to be the master of the 'Apprentice Salvation Pavilion', to be the master of the villains, discipline them, and lead them to good."

Xi Tao's smile froze on her face: "..." Is happiness too short-lived?

He just said that Wutu is light, and now he is going to be a master?And still be a master to the villains?Xi Tao felt a headache just thinking about it.

He didn't answer in a hurry, and pondered slightly.

Although he is unwilling to accept disciples, he has been idle in the Heavenly Court for many years. This is the first time Tianjun assigns him a task. He has eaten and drank for nothing in the Heavenly Court for so long, so it is not easy to refuse.

He hesitated for a moment, then said hesitantly: "It's okay for me to discipline the villains for Tianjun, but will the master of a pavilion be too grand? There are many immortals in the heavenly court, and I am only a little fairy who has only ascended for 500 years. Take on this responsibility."

To an immortal, 500 years is just a snap of his fingers. Compared with other immortals who have ascended for thousands of years, he can only be called a small immortal.

The reason why he shirked was not because he was modest, but because he was used to being carefree and carefree, and he didn't want to bear such a heavy burden.

As the saying goes, the greater the official position, the greater the responsibility. Although it is his duty to save the masters and apprentices from fire and water, he can push it as soon as he can.

When Mr. Xuan Xinghe heard Xi Tao's words, a few cracks finally appeared on his usually expressionless face. He gave Xi Tao an intriguing look, with a complicated expression on his face.

Xitao was stunned for a moment, and tentatively said: "...If Xianjun has something to say, please speak directly?"

Lord Xuan Xinghe took a step forward, patted Xi Tao's shoulder, and said in an ordinary tone: "Immortal Xi Tao is worrying too much, you are the only one in the pavilion."

Xitao was stunned.

A moment later, Xi Tao and Xuan Xinghe Jun stood in front of the door of the 'Apprentice Salvation Pavilion', looking at each other silently.

Xi Tao looked at the familiar courtyard and the unfamiliar plaque, speechless.

Isn't this his fairy mansion?Don't think that if you change the plaque in front of his Immortal Mansion, he won't recognize it!

He was silent for a while, wanting to cry without tears, looking at the golden plaque and the big golden characters on it, he couldn't help reaching out and poking Mr. Xuan Xinghe next to him.

He said: "I have something to say, can you exchange my plaque in Xitaoyuan first?"

……ugly!It's so ugly!

If the previous Xitao Garden looked like an elegant and unique fairy house at first glance, then the current Xitao Garden is full of extravagance and earthy taste, which is extremely spicy.

Xuan Xinghe took a step to the side, and said solemnly: "Heavenly Lord has an order to disband the Apprentice Salvation Pavilion after you complete the task, and then the plaque can be exchanged."

Xitao: "..." This day is unbearable.

Tianjun must have done it on purpose, this is the naked threat!

He shook the folding fan faster and asked depressedly: "As the 'Lord of a Pavilion', what do I need to do?"

When he asked, he couldn't help feeling sad, he had never seen such a humble master of a cabinet!Apart from him, there was no one else in the pavilion, not even anyone to discuss with.

Master Xuan Xinghe stretched out his palm, and turned into a shining fairy mirror. The mirror was painted with patterns of flowers, lotuses with side-by-side pedicles, and a gemstone was embedded in the left and right flower cores, one red and one white, shining brightly.

The mirror surface is different from the previous mirrors. Its mirror surface is made of clear water, and the clear water inside flows slowly, as clear as a mirror.

Xi Tao looked at the mirror, more like looking at the surface of the water. The him inside seemed unreal. He unconsciously stared straight at his eyes, and stretched out his hand to touch.

Mr. Xuan Xinghe avoided his hand with the mirror, and didn't let him touch the mirror, he just said: "Immortal Xitao can use this thing to plunge into different worlds, save the villains in that world, let the villains Only when the apprentice turns back when he goes astray, the mission will not be completed until the villain is cultivated into a good disciple who is obedient and kind.”

Xi Tao was silent for a moment, "...Can you refuse?"

"You can refuse."

"Then I refuse."

Xitao answered without the slightest hesitation, he didn't want to see this disgusting plaque again, he just wanted to replace it right away!

Xuan Xing Hejun turned to look at him, and proposed a tempting condition, "If you complete the task, Tianjun promises to build another fairy house for you, let you manage a water area, and your fairy rank will also be promoted to the upper fairy."

Xi Tao shook his head without hesitation, and still refused. He just wanted to continue to be a salted fish with nothing to do, and he was very satisfied with his current residence. , might as well be as carefree as he is now.

Xuan Xinghejun said in a persuasive way: "You can refuse, but Tianjun said that if you can complete the task, you can also give Qingling and Sicheng a lighter punishment, and allow them to return to the fairy world after two reincarnations. According to the rules, Sicheng is not allowed. If you are a fairy again, you will have to draw his fairy bones when you return to reincarnation, but if you can complete the task, the Heavenly Lord will extrajudicially show mercy, not only allow him to come back to be a fairy, but also let him manage all the heavenly soldiers."

Xi Tao was taken aback for a moment, and didn't speak for a long time.

Although Qing Ling, Si Cheng and him had some friendship, they were just close friends, and he would not sacrifice so much for them.

But for some reason, he thought of Si Cheng's red eyes and Qing Ling's appearance of wanting to talk, and the words of refusal were already on his lips, but he couldn't say anything.

He struggled in his heart for a while, unfolded his folding fan, shook his head and sighed softly.

He is really a good fairy who values ​​love and righteousness!

He sighed in his heart, turned his head to look at Mr. Xuan Xinghe, put away the folding fan in his hand, cupped his hands and said: "The Tianjun is generous and benevolent, and he has given me a heavy responsibility. Xi Tao is bound to do so."

Hey, it's all because of his inexplicable guilt towards Si Cheng, and I don't know if he really owed Si Cheng in his previous life.

Mr. Xuan Xinghe seemed to have expected that he would agree, and said with unchanged expression: "In that case, Immortal Xitao invites you."

Xi Tao glanced at the clear water mirror, "Where are you going? Could it be too soon..."

Although he agreed, he really didn't want to leave, and wanted to go to Xitaoyuan to cook salted fish for a while.

Lord Xuan Xinghe glanced at the sky covered with dark clouds, and said inexplicably: "It's not fast, it should have been done earlier, otherwise it will be too late."

Xi Tao raised her eyes in doubt, and before she had time to ask further questions, she saw Xuanxing Hejun suddenly throwing the mirror at him, he unconsciously reached out to block it, his fingers passed through the clear water in the mirror, his eyes darkened, and an unknown force threw him Involved in the clear water mirror.

Water splashed in the mirror, and he unconsciously closed his eyes.

There was silence in the water, Xuan Xinghe Jun's icy voice came through clearly.

"Immortal Xitao, you only have [-]% of your mana left in this world. If you want to restore your mana, you can only rely on yourself. After your teaching, the more kind the apprentice is, the more your mana will be restored. On the contrary, the more blackened your apprentice is, the lower your mana will be."

Xi Tao: "..." This day is really unbearable!
