Master on the side of the road, don't pick it up

Shen Zhexue failed to transmit sound through the snow, and fell into a coma for half a day.

When he woke up, the sky was already dark, the bright moon was hanging high, and the stream was shining on the residual water on the ground.

Xie Zhuchun saw off the disciples of Taiqingzong, knocked on the door and came in, and saw Shen Zhexue sitting on the ground facing the south window, her long hair hanging down, reflecting the moonlight and water, like a heavy snow that stood overnight.

"Elder, they are leaving." Xie Zhuchun couldn't help but lighten his steps and said slowly.

Shen Zhexue waved his hand to show that he knew, his voice was still hoarse, and asked: "What kind of spiritual root are you?"

"Golden Lingen." Xie Zhuchun replied.

Shen Zhexue was silent for a moment, "I'm sleepy, and you've been busy all day, so there's no need to clean up, go and rest first."

Xie Zhuchun looked at him a few more times, then stepped back lightly.

As soon as the carved wooden door was closed, Shen Zhexue raised her hand and pinched her brow bone, sighing to herself that if she cared about it, she would be confused, and her brain would not work well.

Right now, due to the seal of his ice spirit root, he needs to use the five elements to lead out. Even if it really snows again with the hands of others, it is just asking for trouble, playing Tai Chi on Elder Yan's bottom line.

But Shen Zhexue felt a little uncomfortable in his chest when he recalled the anxious "Master" he heard before he fell into a coma.

If he was lucky enough to have the same name and surname before, there is no doubt about it now.

His apprentice Shi Yuan really voted for Taiqingzong.

Shi Yuan's child was born with evil currents, once this group of experts discovers his physique, it must be the result of first arresting him for research and then obliterating him.

Shen Zhexue could only pray silently now, since his apprentice dared to come, he was fully prepared.

Of course, the best result is that he can't pass the competition.

Shen Zhexue never imagined that after so many years of leading students, there would still be a time when students would fail the exams, and the harder they failed, the better.

a few days later.

Xie Zhuchun was in high spirits, gesticulating in his hands, and said excitedly: "It's too exaggerated, too exaggerated! This competition is going to explode!"

Shen Zhexue: "..."

It's no wonder Xie Zhuchun yelled so much, even if Shen Zhexue was forced to retreat, he could hear the sound of fighting from the opposite Zongzhu Peak every day in the room.

The splendor of this Grand Competition of Taiqing Sect can even be recorded in the annals of cultivation, and the best evidence is that those peak masters and elders in Xubu Taiqing are crazy now, and they even fight for future apprentices. Two of them were cut off.

When Shen Zhexue was exploring the sect last night, he was hit by a rock that fell from the sky, and it was Xie Zhuchun who dug him out overnight, and returned to the deep rain with his face covered.

Otherwise, he would be famous again, and it would be doubly embarrassing to be able to directly change from "Hot Pot Elder" to "Old Unlucky Elder".

However, Shen Zhexue, as Xubu Taiqing's nominal teacher, also received a freshly released Grand Competition ranking this morning, with a picture stone record inside, which is convenient for the whole sect to verify and monitor.

In the past, after the fourth day of the Zongmen Grand Competition, the scores gradually increased, and the rankings were basically settled.

Unexpectedly, this year is unique and has many reversals.

Among them, Qin Guzhen, who was originally very promising, made a major mistake in the "Heavenly Rank Evil Current" level on the fifth day, and was almost out of the game without getting out of the Heavenly Rank.

This year's Heaven Rank assessment requires rescuing illusioned villagers in a simulated evil environment, as well as fighting with evil things, testing judgment and reaction in many ways.

The precept elder who designed this examination room is notoriously strict. He once struggled to pass [-] candidates by himself. This time, to increase the difficulty, he added a heart demon array to the heavenly rank.

Qin Guzhen saw Mr. Xiang in the formation, and the projection of reality made her confused. If she hadn't broken the formation with blood at the last moment, her journey of apprenticeship would have to stop here.

What is surprising is that a little girl named Qiao Tan from Beishan Academy has become a rising star.

The little girl was originally the daughter of an overseas student at Beishan Academy. This year, she was forced by her mother to take the exam. She did very poorly in the first few exams, and managed to pass the exam. But then she became interested for some reason, and she was only thirteen. The four-year-old girl held a short sword in her right hand and carried the villagers in her left hand, and took down the leader of Tianjieguan in one fell swoop.

Then there is the formation cultivator of the Langfeng family, this person has been driving all the way, and the formation method is unpredictable. He retired halfway.

The first sentence is "I have a guilty conscience and violated the family rules".

The formation cultivator of the Langfeng family was one of the group of people that Taiqingzong went to pick up.

They experienced the phantom array together, and even if this person's memory was erased later, some experiences cannot be easily erased.

Presumably he had some enlightenment in the mirror array, and this feeling finally drove him to choose to give up the assessment on the fifth day, saying that he would come to apprentice again 20 years later when he had no doubts in his heart.

The second sentence is full of uproar in the Taiqing Zongzhuan, and no one knows it.

Xie Zhuchun learned it vividly, and said: "In this life, you should become a Taoist couple with Wenshu Taoist friend, travel all over the famous mountains and rivers, and participate in the mysterious formation together."

Shen Zhexue almost spouted tea after hearing this, and asked in confusion, "Are you so arrogant?"

Xie Zhuchun sighed: "Hey, how stupid is this guy? Has he really lost his memory? Pity our senior brother Pei, who has not healed from the whip, so he is about to go out and kill people."

To say that the poison of Leng Wenshu's Drunk Meng Heng'e has not been completely cured, Shen Zhexue has seen it several times, and discussed the prescription several times with Jiang Qianchui, the medical sage.

Elder Jiang Qianchui agreed with Shen Zhexue's prescription, but because the frost on Tianbiwa was really hard to find, at present, he could only use other medicines to resist it.

Leng Wenshu fell asleep every day, and only occasionally woke up for half an hour.

"My brother Wen Shu has pity on me." Xie Zhuchun sighed, and dragged his fingers on the water mirror to announce the ranking of the competition.

"But speaking of it, after Zhenxiu retired from the competition, we counted the points and found that Shi Yuan was amazing. The points in the first few games were not biased at all, quite stable."

Xie Zhuchun clicked his tongue in amazement, "We will definitely drag him down in Tianjie Pass, but who knows that Tianjie and Xinmo pass, his score is frighteningly high, and the heart demon mirror is the first, even ours Elder Feng even praised him for his perseverance when he overthrew the precepts of 800 people."

After looking at the photo stone, Xie Zhuchun also met his face, knowing that Shi Yuan was the boy in the mirror array.

He leaned over and quietly asked Shen Zhexue, "It can be said that a famous teacher gave birth to an excellent student, how did you teach him? Is his vote for the Taiqing sect related to you, the elder?"

Shen Zhexue squeezed the photo stone tightly, and said angrily: "What are you doing so well in the exam, I can't wait to knock his head off!"

Xie Zhuchun: "Yeah???"

In any case, Shen Zhexue was powerless to decide Shi Yuan's score, and could only watch helplessly as he passed five levels and defeated six generals, and rushed into the top three.

On the eighth day, the Taiqing Zong Grand Competition's final assessment kicked off.

This assessment is called "Teacher Asks Questions".

Before dawn, the Taiqing Emperor's trial ground was already full of people.

In the past, only the elders of the peak masters who were interested in recruiting disciples in the sixth pass would attend, but this year, due to the abundance of talents among the disciples, many reclusive great masters came out of the mountain to see the young people's demeanor.

The disciples were even more enthusiastic and came here all night to occupy the space.

It stands to reason that on such a big occasion, Shen Zhexue should live in seclusion, and when he arrived, he was already ready to be tough with Yan Yuanhan.

As a result, when Elder Yan saw him coming, he didn't even give him a look, but sat in the elder's seat and drank his cold tea.

When Shen Zhexue walked to the teacher's seat, Jiang Qianchui, the master of Xuanhu Peak, stood up first, and said, "Elder Shen looks much better today, and sit down first. There is something that can be changed, so Jiang will ask for advice."

Shen Zhexue's true identity is only known to a few high-ranking members of Taiqingzong. Jiang Qianchui is a generation of medical masters who never want to interfere with trivial matters other than medicine, so they only know Shen Zhexue's superficial identity.

Just when Jiang Qianchui was about to talk about medical principles with him again, Leng Wenyan, who hadn't seen him for many days, came running with a whip.

Leng Wenyan was still in a hurry, and said while running: "Master, the young man named Mu Linggen is going to be under Uncle Ge's sect!"

Jiang Qianchui was furious: "Old man Ge has robbed me of my apprentice for three years, is he deliberately making trouble with my Xuanhu Peak? Wait a moment, Elder Shen, I'll go meet him first!"

The personalities of this pair of master and apprentice are almost the same, Shen Zhexue naturally nodded and asked her to go backstage.

This is always the case in Taiqing Zong Grand Competition, there is also a master's arena hidden behind the disciple ring, which is specially for the elders of the peak master who snatch apprentices.

Jiang Qianchui left vigorously, and Shen Zhexue, who was still in his seat, said to Leng Wenyan, "How is your brother these days?"

Leng Wenyan didn't forget what happened in the phantom array, but she just pretended to be ignorant, she smiled and said: "Elder Shen's prescription is really effective, my brother is much better than before, we are still looking for Tianbi Frost on the roof."

These teenagers have a steelyard in their hearts. They don't know who owes karma, but they remember who saved their lives.

In addition, Elder Shen had a correct name in Taiqingzong, received a jade card, and got close to him, who would dare to make irresponsible remarks.

Seeing that her master had left, Leng Wenyan didn't deliberately hide it.

As clever as her, she doesn't know Shen Zhexue's reason for coming.

She whispered: "Fortunately, there is Yuan Xiyan on top, and because of Shi Yuan's physical condition, his spiritual root may not be very good. There are three elders and two peak masters who want to take him in, but neither has other choices."

The big competition is basically a show ending. The selected disciples need to fight with an elder or peak master. Their performance on the spot will also affect the attitude of those who are willing to come forward to invite them to become teachers.

Taiqingzong accepts disciples as a two-way choice. If a peak master takes a fancy to a disciple, he will go to the stage. If there are many elders on the same stage, the disciple can choose the master who is willing to learn from them.

If no elders are willing to take the stage, then the disciples will first be named under the suzerain's sect, and the suzerain will assign a peak master to guide them half a year later.

On the contrary, if the disciple does not want to be chosen from among the current peak masters, he can also nominate elders who are willing to be his mentor.

But off the court, these people have passed five levels and killed six generals. After reaching this point, they can basically be taken away smoothly.

But in order to avoid embarrassment between the two sides, we will still ask the opinions of the freshmen and elder peak masters in advance, draw up a rough list, and hand it over to the two sides for pre-selection.

When Shen Zhexue got the peach and plum flower note that Xie Zhuchun handed over, she let out a long breath.

... Shi Yuan's handwriting got better and better.

Shen Zhexue thought for a few days but couldn't come up with a perfect solution, and since there was nothing she could do at the moment, instead of letting Shi Yuan fall under the sect of other elders and be restrained by Taiqingzong all the time, it would be better to follow her.

When planning in the future, add another time abyss, no matter what, he just wants to keep his apprentice safe.

Shen Zhexue was about to put away the peach and plum paper, when she suddenly caught a glimpse of a purple aura left on the sealing part of the flower paper.

"What is this?" Shen Zhexue wrapped the purple aura around her fingertips.

When Leng Wenyan next to him saw it, his expression changed drastically.

"It's the emperor descending." Leng Wenyan said in shock: "This is the emperor descending to rob people!"

"Steal people?"

Leng Wenyan frowned, and explained: "I've only seen this kind of situation in the books that record the Zongmen Grand Competition. The emperor Jiangxi never holds a Grand Competition. Apprentices who go to other sects will leave this kind of spiritual breath and invite teachers to fight."

In this way, Shen Zhexue also remembered that because of the special nature of the emperor's disciples, he often failed to receive an entry for decades. Once they were selected by them, it was the way of heaven, and the spiritual roots were often different from ordinary monks. .

It is said that the spirit roots of the eight star kings descended from the emperor in the past are all different from the five elements, and they can manipulate the artifacts of the fairy court.

The spiritual root is the foundation of a cultivator's practice. The spiritual power is created from the spiritual root, and can also determine the upper limit of the level of manipulating the magic weapon. If the spiritual root is not talented enough, even if you get the divine weapon, you will only end up backlashing and dying.

To be selected by the emperor Jiangxi symbolizes that the talent is recognized by the Dao of Heaven.

For this reason, no matter how unwilling other sects are, they will give priority to sending apprentices to the emperor Jiangxi.

There are very few people who are unwilling, whether it is the master or the apprentice who is unwilling, the emperor Jiang Xi always invites the invitation with "invite the teacher to fight".

The emperor will send people to come to compete with the current master of the disciple, the purpose is to let him prove that he has the ability to teach the Son of Heaven.

However, the result is that the apprentice does not want the master to be injured, or the master thinks that his strength is not enough, and instead persuades the disciple to join another high school.

The emperor's son Jiang Xi maintains the name of the old sect, and also continues the appearance of the jungle of the jungle that has been maintained for thousands of years in the cultivation world.

When Shen Zhexue arrived at the Zongzhu Peak, several elders of Taiqingzong who knew about it had already arrived.

"The child chose you."

Yan Yuanhan looked at Shen Zhexue, straight to the point, "You are together in the phantom formation, what is your relationship with this son?"

Shen Zhexue said: "We met by chance. I was his family's teacher when I was incognito, and I also treated his illnesses."

Leng Sanqiu held his hand behind his back, "I sent someone to seal the memory of these casual practitioners who entered the illusion formation together, but he is still willing to come to the Taiqing Sect, which shows that his obsession is deep."

After a pause, he asked Shen Zhexue, "Do you know who the emperor descended from?"

Without waiting for his response, Leng Sanqiu asked himself and answered: "The one who came is Jingjun Siming."

Shen Zhexue immediately understood the joint.

When the emperor's son descended and happened to Xiangjun, he had already lost the trust of the other two sects.

Pianna Jingjun and the head of Hanshan are Taoist couples, even if the emperor has never had a precedent for favoritism, but the big formations under the three major sects are in harmony, Hanshan does not do anything this time, and the emperor is here How could Emperor Taiqing be willing to let him go so easily if he snatched an ordinary person who had entered the mirror array first?

Elder Discipline said to Shen Zhexue: "You immediately transfer that child to the suzerain or Elder Yan. Jun Rujing has lived in Jane for hundreds of years, but he chose this time to come to ask for someone. Their purpose is unknown. Hanshan said it was his own. Zhan Neigui, but only killed a few small peak masters, I think they have ghosts in their hearts!"

"How to choose a date for Hanshan to discuss." Yan Yuanhan said.

The elder commandment said anxiously: "Shen Zhexue, I have seen the child's memory. He cried for a long time in the heart demon mirror test. Feng asked himself that he might not be able to keep his original intentions after that experience. The situation of the emperor Jiangxi is unknown now. , we will never let him worship Lord Jing as his teacher."

Leng Sanqiu didn't care to talk, and silently recited the formula, burning the silver nails on Shen Zhexue's ears until they were red.

"Elder Shen, this is the first thing you do for Tai Qingzong, don't get off to a bad start."

Shen Zhexue, who had been silent since just now, sighed.

He looked Leng Sanqiu at the same level, and said: "Since you can't get off to a bad start, why don't you let me try Mr. Jing?"

Leng Sanqiu frowned.

Shen Zhexue went on to say: "This is in the Taiqing sect. Now that there are many masters, you don't have to worry about it. Or it doesn't matter if you add the ancient seal of evil and the formation of guarding the mountain. Since the emperor's descent is related to the evil flow, I will go Comparing moves with Lord Jing is also convenient for investigation."

"Besides, the emperor's coming here may not be all for the sake of Tian Daozi. Instead of letting them turn black and white and ask the crime too clearly, it is better for me to play, which is enough to prove that Shen is still under control."

As soon as the subject changed, Shen Zhexue raised her eyebrows and said: "Also, don't you all want to know what Peak Master Shen is capable of now? I can't use evil currents, isn't it a new test?"

"This……"

There were quite a few elders who came out from the hermitage to watch the competition, not only Shen Zhexue, they also thought of this method.

But it was too risky after all, they didn't dare to make their own decisions, so they all looked at Leng Sanqiu and Yan Yuanhan.

Yan Yuanhan thought for a moment, then said to Leng Sanqiu: "It's not impossible."

Jing Jun has not shown up for a hundred years, and his strength has long been incomparable.

If Leng Sanqiu was at a disadvantage in every match, it would be a disguised form of humiliation to Emperor Taiqing, it would be better to let Shen Zhexue try it out.

Now Shen Zhexue's physique is not easy to kill, as long as they can restrain him from going crazy and attracting evil currents, using him to discover the strength of Emperor Jiangxi is also a way out.

Thinking about the pros and cons, Leng Sanqiu made a decisive decision: "In that case, Elder Shen will prepare first."

Shen Zhexue folded her sleeves and bowed, and said again: "Sect Master Leng must not attack ordinary people."

Leng Sanqiu's expression turned cold, "It's only natural."

When Shen Zhexue left, Leng Sanqiu and Yan Yuanhan said, "I asked Elder Yan to do the assessment called Shiyuan."

Yan Yuanhan was not surprised and nodded in response.

The Dabi High Platform rose out of thin air on the trial ground.

The teacher asks Guan a test, which is presided over by the elders of the peak masters in Taiqing in turn. Usually, they will fight against the disciple they like.

When Yan Yuanhan stepped onto the stone platform, the bustling outside of the arena was like being poured a basin of cold water in the cold winter months.

At one time, there were thousands of people in the arena, but no one made a sound.

After a few breaths, the field exploded!

Even the peak masters at the banquet were talking in low voices, not to mention the disciples, those who pulled out the mirror to call their fellows, those who used the photo stone to videotape, and those who frantically took pictures of the thighs of the brothers and sisters around them like they were on the table. Wonderful.

Taiqingzong was like a pot of boiling hot water, and the sky was full of bubbles.

"Elder Yan wants to accept disciples, what a hell!"

"That child was clearly a double-cultivator of talisman and sword in the previous short training, this, this match is only half enough."

"Will you be able to speak! What kind of family is right? You see, Senior Brother Pei under Elder Yan's sect is a pure sword cultivator. Now this is called a bull's head and a horse's mouth!"

"I beg you to go back and copy the books, I just want to know if such a good-looking junior will be disfigured by old man Yan!!"

"Our logistics wants to know if we want to chisel him in the ice for a while!!"

On the field, Shi Yuan inspected Yan Yuanhan for a long while, clasped his fists and saluted him.

After straightening up, he was about to put away the talisman paper, but not far away, Yan Yuanhan pulled out his accompanying sword, Jishuang.

Elder Yan said via voice transmission: "If you catch my ten swords, it doesn't matter if you want to worship anyone, if you can't catch—"

The cold air swept across the audience, freezing ice and flying snow, and the sky and the earth were frosty white.

"It will never be a farewell to cultivation."
