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

The sect grand competition held once every ten years in the Xubu Taiqing officially came to an end on the evening of the tenth day.

A total of 23 inner sect disciples, 86 outer sect disciples, and 370 six disciples from Beishan Academy were recruited this time, which can be called the peak of the number of disciples accepted by major sects in the cultivation world in the past century.

The six assessment calculations and photo stones will be announced on the clearing column in front of the sect from the day of the public list.

It stands to reason that they are all recruiting disciples, and it is meaningless to count the scores. It is just that there have been several scandals in the big competitions of some sects in the past. After that, the major sects will publish the detailed evaluation rules to supervise each other and ensure the quality of the students in the sect.

At the same time, as an incentive, the top five students from the inner sect, outer sect, and Beishan academy can get the corresponding spiritual stone artifacts, as well as sapphire tokens that are exempt from attending some introductory courses.

Taiqingzong has many traditions, one of which is to count heads in front of the Qing Dinglan, and sigh with emotion that the back waves of the Yangtze River push the front waves, and the salt fish in the front waves are on the beach.

"This Yuan Xiyan is worthy of being my junior brother, he is really up to date!"

There are not a few who have issued similar exclamations.

This year's Grand Competition topped the list, but Yuan Xiyan, who had been favored by disciples from all peaks since the first round.

This person played steadily, ranking first in three of the six exams, and in the top three in the other two. Only the Anna Mirror test score was low, but it did not affect his total score breaking through the new high in the past 50 years.

It was rumored that he originally intended to worship Elder Yan as his teacher, but Yan Yuanhan no longer accepted apprentices. Finally, after pre-selection and coordination, Yuan Xiyan was accepted by Master Xuanqi Peak.

Xuan Qizi's swordsmanship is unrestrained and free, and he used to have two inner disciples, and he hasn't recruited new disciples for nearly a hundred years. Now he accepts Yuan Xiyan as the third person to teach him personally, which is already enviable.

Ranked second is Shi Yuan, who became famous in the competition against Yan Yuanhan.

The gap between him and Yuan Xiyan is only seven points, but currently everyone doesn't care much about his score.

Regarding Shi Yuan, what the sect talked about the most was his earth-shattering battle.

The photo stone recording this battle was sold for a sky-high price in private, and all kinds of practitioners in the sect wanted to know which one he practiced.

But none of them got what they wanted, and they couldn't even meet their children.

Because Shi Yuan himself was seriously injured, and now he is tired of listening to the deep rain to recuperate.

Originally, I was tired of hearing about Shenyu's reputation in Taiqingzong, but it was still famous for its exquisite and delicious hot pot. It can be regarded as a very special food peak, but there is nothing special about it.

After all, the fact that the elder defeated the disciple who came to challenge was too suspenseful, so everyone didn't inquire carefully about the specific situation that day.

But Elder Shen, who was newly released, actually won the battle to invite teachers, which is a rare thing that hasn't happened in hundreds of years.

Not only disciples, but also a group of unsuspecting elders and peak masters also wanted to visit this comrade.

But Shen Zhexue is currently in a state of poor health, Xie Zhuchun replied on behalf of the name card of the visit, and only said that I will invite everyone to talk about it when the elder wakes up.

As a result, Elder Shen's title in the hearts of Taiqingzong disciples changed from "Hot Pot Elder" to "Excellent Master in the Cultivation World".

Not everyone wants to go to Dizi Jiangxi.

Master Taiqing Zong accepts disciples, regardless of whether they are inside or outside the school, even if they have different personalities and styles, they are all teaching with heart.

Most of these apprentices have deep feelings for their masters, not only treating each other as a gentleman who preaches and accepts karma, but also as a relative.

Those two people who were sent by the emperor to leave in Taiqingzong back then were unwilling to go.

The master of one of them was defeated in the battle to invite teachers. At that time, it was Lingjun who was good at using poison puppet, and in the end it was this disciple who changed his body for medicine and changed his sect's savior teacher.

The other person had a precedent and did not want his teacher to be humiliated. He hesitated again and again and left in tears.

This is in the Taiqing sect, but in other sects, there is still a situation where the master and the emperor come to discuss deals.

After the sale of the spiritual plant | fairy grass full of spiritual sacs, a certain master knocked the apprentice unconscious and sent him away overnight.

Cases like this even happened in the old sect Hanshan, which can be described as chilling.

And the emperor's son Jiangxi is so divine in the world of cultivation, once he worships, he is not allowed to go out of the sect without authorization unless he is instructed by the heavenly dao or the suzerain.

And because of the contact with the mysterious secrets, the precepts in the door are extremely strict, and the rules and regulations are written out and folded, which is half the height of a person.

This kind of restriction, to put it bluntly, is like house arrest, and it is also very inconsistent with the ideas of many younger generations who want to act chivalrously and cross the world of cultivation.

The emperor Jiangxi claims to pass on the way of heaven to others, but the ambition of a young man is not in the sky, but in the aura in his hands and the land under his feet.

The Emperor's Son Jiangxi may not be the high place that everyone should and wants to go.

But if they really wanted to come, most monks would be powerless to struggle.

Under such circumstances, there is an elder who is willing to fight against the strong and win the life of the disciple, which can be called a great opportunity.

The disciples of the Taiqing sect changed places and did not dare to say that their master would surrender to the Son of God on their behalf, but seeing with their own eyes that someone is still willing to do this is already emotional.

The disciples gathered in Qingding Lane, and someone said: "We are worshiping the master who is sincerely recognized, not some fate."

Fate, the way of heaven, this topic is more serious.

The atmosphere was a little low for a while.

"Look down." Someone said.

Going down, the rankings are just as unexpected.

Because this year a pair tied for third.

The Langfeng family's formation repairers withdrew midway, and the third place in the grand competition fell to a doctor from the Qingxia family. The medical training assessment needs to be divided into separate sessions, and the content of the test is not as stimulating as the six quizzes. The chances of getting attention are not good many.

But this medical trainee played very well, buried himself in the exam in obscurity, and joined Jiang Qianchui's sect in Xuanhu Peak without any suspense.

Tied for third with the medical practitioner is Qiao Tan, a little girl from Mr. Beishan Academy's family.

She is only 13 years old this year, and she deliberately delayed the points in the first two games, but with her outstanding performance in the next few games, she managed to turn the tide and finally won the third place.

In the future, such as Qin Guzhen, who made too many mistakes in the level of heaven, and fell behind the fifth place, but still joined the cultivator of Xinyi Formation, and followed Elder Jianxiu'an to train his body, it was not in vain.

At the end of the Grand Competition, Xubu Taiqing closed his sect and recuperated for two days.

These two days are holidays for the disciples, but they didn't go down the mountain to eat hazel as usual, but squatted at the foot of the mountain tired of listening to the deep rain, hoping to wait for more news from senior brother Xie.

Xie Zhuchun is currently one head and two big.

After the contest ended, Shen Zhexue and Shi Yuan both fell down and lay in front of the courtyard gate of Yanting Shenyu. Xie Zhuchun was almost scared out of his wits when he came back, and now he still has lingering fears when he thinks about it.

And even if Shen Zhexue's master and apprentice were injured like this, Yan Yuanhan didn't send more people to Yan Ting Shen Yu.

Fortunately, Jiang Qianchui and Leng Wenyan came later and bandaged the wounds of the two patients so that nothing serious would happen.

It's just that they couldn't keep watch all night, so the burden fell on Xie Zhuchun.

For convenience, Xie Zhuchun put the two of them on the big couch in the master bedroom.

Therefore, when Shi Yuan opened his eyes, there was such a big master sleeping beside him.

He almost didn't come up in one breath, his eyes turned black, and it took a long time for him to get better.

Shi Yuan didn't know where he was for a moment.

However, the tip of Shen Zhexue's nose was indeed only a finger away from him, and the long breath was sweeping over his forehead, like catkins falling gently.

Shi Yuan pressed his chest, only to feel that there was a living thing in there, and the bouncing and bouncing was too lively.

He was afraid of disturbing anything, and even blinked slowly.

This was also the first time he saw Master's real appearance clearly.

After removing the cover of those disguise techniques, it is like a beautiful jade brushing away the dust.

Shen Zhexue was still seriously injured, her eyes were tightly closed, and her crow's eyelashes were like the wings of a butterfly, but she was not stable and trembled from time to time.

Shi Yuan had already seen that his master's bones were very good, and his outline was even more like a beautifully carved jade, but he didn't know that after his master removed the disguise, he could really be called a fairy.

But at this moment, Xianjun is not as awe-inspiring as a fairy, but seems to have fallen into the mortal world.

The sleepy Shen Zhexue ignorantly pursed his lower lip, pursing some rosy lips from his light-colored lips, his white hair was scattered on the pillow, and a few unpacked strands curled slightly around his cheeks, like the moonlight , Flowing a pillow of thin light.

In fact, when she broke through the Immemorial Seal of Evil in the suburbs of Langfeng City, the Yi Rong Jue on Shen Zhexue's face had almost collapsed, but at that time the scene was chaotic, and Shi Yuan suddenly heard the master's farewell, so he didn't care about the details of his appearance .

And after the Grand Competition, Shi Yuan lost too much blood when serving tea, his eyes could no longer see people clearly, and Shen Zhexue's face was smeared with blood. Both of them were holding on with will, and before they had time to wash, they both passed out as soon as they came back .

Shi Yuan's consciousness gradually recovered, but his thoughts were still not coherent.

He remembered that Master wanted to help him before he passed out, but Shen Zhexue obviously overestimated his own strength. When Shi Yuan saw that Master was not supported and fell forward, he wanted to use his body to support him. It's all black, and I don't remember anything after that.

The room was filled with the smell of medicine, Shi Yuan didn't dare to make too much noise, he remembered that Master was also covered in blood at that time.

Enduring the injury on his shoulder, Shi Yuan quietly stretched out his hand, and lifted the corner of the quilt covering Shen Zhexue's neck.

With just one glance, Shi Yuan's heart felt as if he had been hit by a heavy hammer, which hurt more than those broken ribs.

Mirror Lord's formation uses lenses as weapons. The lenses are not as ordinary as mirrors, but sharper than daggers. They can cut blood and let out blood, and can even goug out a piece of flesh. foundation.

Shen Zhexue used ice to seal the wound before rushing to Shitai. Later, when Jiang Qianchui bandaged him, he used three big bottles for the elixir to stop the bleeding, and his whole body was wrapped into a dumpling.

Shi Yuan's mood fluctuated, and a white mist covered his eyes.

Xie Zhuchun pushed the door open and came in, saw him sitting up, and howled on the spot, "You, you, you, you are alive! Hurry up and lie down, I'll call someone!"

The physique of a cultivator is extraordinary, even if he is unconscious, his aura can slowly recover on his own.

Jiang Qianchui hurried over, examined the two of them and said, "Their resilience is quite strong, and there is nothing serious about them."

Xie Zhuchun breathed a sigh of relief.

Not long after Shi Yuan woke up, Shen Zhexue also woke up.

In a trance, he thought that he was in the three years when he was on a mission, and he couldn't lie down even if he was injured, so he had to get up and run for his life.

While struggling, I suddenly felt someone holding my hand, and a soft call came from my ear: "Master, Master, it's okay, we're all fine..."

The voice became hoarse in the end, at this time Shen Zhexue's consciousness had recovered [-]%, and he felt the palms of his hands were very hot and humid, as if someone was covering his tears with his hands and was crying.

Shen Zhexue was most afraid of people crying, so she struggled to open her eyes, it didn't matter if she didn't look at it, as soon as she saw it, she would get a crying apprentice.

"...Shiyuan?" Shen Zhexue lost his train of thought for a moment, and said in a hoarse voice: "Don't cry, Yan Yuanhan is here to beat you again? I'll call you back when I'm ready."

When Shi Yuan cried, he didn't make a sound, but Shen Zhexue clearly felt that his palms became more wet, obviously crying harder.

Shen Zhexue: "..."

Well, I am really good at comforting people.

The person has woken up, and the injury heals faster.

The injured master and apprentice were able to walk back and forth in the house within two days, and even played mahjong at a table with Leng Wenyan and Xie Zhuchun. Their resilience was really amazing.

Now that Shi Yuan's head is kowtowed, and the tea is also respected, it's not like when Mo turned his head and just talked about it, he was already regarded as Shen Zhexue's official disciple, and there were those who were affiliated with the sect and registered in written documents.

On the third day after he was able to go to the ground, Elder An, who was in charge of testing at Xubu Taiqing, came to test Shi Yuan's spiritual root.

Elder An had a good temper with a white beard, and took out a palm-sized bead from his sleeve, "Come on, put your hand on it, don't be nervous, just release the aura normally."

Shi Yuan injected spiritual energy into the Lingzhu according to his words.

In the dim spirit bead, a little light condensed.

Shen Zhexue at the side held his breath.

For the emperor to come down to snatch people, Shi Yuan's spiritual root must not be too common. If it is too common, it will make people speculate.

Shen Zhexue felt uneasy, and saw that the color inside the pearl changed several times, and the last two points of light of different colors circled around, like yin and yang fish shapes, and gradually merged into one, releasing a bright blue brilliance.

"What is this color?" Shen Zhexue didn't remember the explanation of the contrasting color of blue.

The elder was also a little puzzled. Before he came, he went to the ancient books and secrets on the third floor of the Book Pavilion to search for some records of rare spiritual roots, but now it seems that they still ran out.

He considered it carefully: "It should be the dual spirit root of ice and wind, but this purity...Elder Shen forgive me, and let the old man go to read the classics again, and come back another day."

An Chang's aging became a gust of wind, and he left in a blink of an eye.

Shi Yuan asked: "Master, is there something wrong with this spiritual root?"

Shen Zhexue patted her head to recall.

The spiritual root is extremely pure from the sky, and the practice of double spiritual roots is not as good as that of a single spiritual root, but except for the five elements, wind, ice, thunder, etc. are all mutant spiritual roots, and they are even better in terms of talent. one chip.

It is indeed rare for Shi Yuan to have two mutated spiritual roots.

"There's nothing wrong with it. It's all about cultivation. Let's wait for the elders to talk about it tomorrow." Shen Zhexue patted Shi Yuan's shoulder and said with relief: "Go, go to the yard to choose some ingredients, what do you want to eat today, how many do you see?" If the moon is gone, you will grow shorter."

"..." Shi Yuan wanted to cry but had no tears.

The host puppets in Liexing are uniform in size, and their bone age is older than his actual age. Shen Zhexue is used to getting along with the tall and thin puppets, and suddenly a shrunken little apprentice can't adapt.

Shen Zhexue saw that his mouth was pursed, and couldn't help laughing and said, "I'm just kidding you."

However, before becoming a young apprentice, he had been in a wheelchair for many years, and his body and physique were indeed not as good as those of his age. Shen Zhexue thought about taking good care of him, and has also worked hard on food supplements these days.

The next day, the elders who tested the spiritual roots came to listen to the deep rain with books in their hands, and told them the results of Shiyuan's spiritual roots.

"Although the records of the ice wind spirit root are few, they are divided into grades and named like other rare spirit roots. The old man asked a few fellows in the sect who are proficient in this way to discuss. According to the purity of your disciple's spiritual breath, His spiritual root is not the Ice Wind Spiritual Root that often has the 'Snow Wind Guest', but a higher level - 'Night Returner'."

The mutated spiritual root will have an exclusive grade name. Elder Yan Yuanhan's ice spiritual root is also called "seeing in the cold".

The elder twirled his beard and proudly said: "There may not be a single 'Yeguiren' in thousands of years, and the group of fortune tellers in the emperor Jiangxi are right, your future is limitless!"

The elder was so excited that he stuffed Shi Yuan with a handful of spiritual herbs for nourishing his body, and took out an old hen from his storage pouch to let him mend it.

At the same time, Qian urged Wan to ask Shen Zhexue to teach him well.

Before leaving, he left the ancient books he had consulted in Yan Ting Shen Yu, and said one more sentence: "Elder Shen, please be more considerate. If there is any difficulty, we old men will help."

The tone is quite concerned.

Shen Zhexue was puzzled at first, but only after reading the book did she understand why the elder had such an attitude.

Although the dual spiritual roots of ice and wind sound strange, but water and wood produce ice, and fire and wood produce wind, and water overcomes fire. That is to say, this kind of spiritual root is internally charged, and it is not easy to cultivate.

There is also a high probability of going crazy and training yourself to be disabled.

But Shi Yuan is even more special, it is a gift for others to be a "Night Returner", but Shen Zhexue knows that it varies from person to person.

Shi Yuan's father is the current demon lord, and it is well known that the demon lord is the top-grade fire spirit root. If this bloodline is passed to Shi Yuan, a new situation may arise where the fire presses down on the water.

This also explains why his attributes are pro-wind, while Bing Linggen is suppressed.

Shen Zhexue came to a conclusion: Shiyuan, the spiritual root, can reach the pinnacle if it is practiced well, but it might be buried on the spot if it is not practiced well.

Looking at Shi Yuan, who was at a loss, carrying an old hen with fluttering wings, Shen Zhexue thought, there is a long way to go.

But life still has to live, and injuries still have to be healed.

Classes are still to be attended.

In the first few days when Shi Yuan came here, the consciousness released from the opposite Sovereign Peak has never been broken.

It was inconvenient for Shen Zhexue to talk to Shi Yuan about not turning back, so she only cared about arranging a residence, taking care of her body, familiarizing him with the terrain of the Taiqing Sect, and arranging designated courses.

Although Xubu Taiqing is mainly based on the master-apprentice system, there are still some basic courses and evil courses, and freshmen are still required to attend lectures at Bianran Peak.

Inner sect disciples will go to a small secret realm to practice in half a year, which is equivalent to a small military training.

But these things are still early, Shen Zhexue is still busy.

The new elder has no human rights, so he was forced to take a shift and start classes at Bianran Peak after only a few days off.

On the day of class.

Shen Zhexue got up early in the morning, packed up the courseware and books, and just walked through the gate of the courtyard when she found Shi Yuan standing in the courtyard holding an umbrella.

Shen Zhexue wondered: "I remember that you can be exempted from listening to this class?"

Shi Yuan said: "The nine-story platform rises from the base of the earth, I want to hear it."

Shen Zhexue, a hard-working child, naturally appreciates it very much, not to mention that Shi Yuan does not have the same basic skills as those disciples from aristocratic families, and rarely contacts with his peers. Shen Zhexue will certainly not stop him from having the opportunity to have a big class.

It's just that he stopped for a step, and said to Shi Yuan, "Wait."

The inner sect disciples of Xubu Taiqing have uniform disciple uniforms, which are divided into two types: long and short robes. The long robes are gentle and elegant, and the short robes are smart and capable, which is convenient for comparison.

Tired of hearing that the deep rain is still raining and windy today, Shi Yuan didn't wash his marrow to shape his body, and his long robe with blue and crane patterns fluttered in the wind, making his skeleton look more and more weak, as if it was blown away by a gust of wind.

Shen Zhexue turned around and wrapped him in a big fur, and helped him tie up the fur collar, which made him feel much more pleasing to the eye.

He checked Shi Yuan's body, and found that his leg injury was all healed, and there was a flow of spiritual energy in his tendons, but after all, he had been injured for so long before, and his physique was far worse than that of ordinary cultivators, and he might catch a cold easily.

Although there is a kind of cold called "Master thinks you are cold", the chubby and furry apprentice is also cuter.

Shen Zhexue secretly satisfied her own selfishness.

Shi Yuan buried half of his face in the plush collar, his eyes became darker and brighter, and the mole under his eyes was even more red.

With such a face, I'm afraid it will be serious in a few years.

... Well, Shen Zhexue suddenly felt a little troubled.

Is emotional education and physiological knowledge also to keep up?

I don't know if there were popular courses on this aspect in the past in the realm of comprehension.

And Shi Yuan had no parents by his side, so those things could only be taught by him as a master.

Shen Zhexue suddenly felt that the name of master was really a heavy responsibility.

--------------------

The author has something to say:

Many years later.

Shen Zhexue: Heh!Isn't it a big responsibility? !

Shi Yuan: ...you are self-taught.
