Due to the incident of the demons that happened not long ago, there was a lot of turmoil in the academy, there was a curfew, the houses were often spot-checked, and they had to go to the grove to check if there were any demons hiding.The demons didn't find it. After all, they only checked once a while ago, but they caught a lot of young couples who were in love. The attack caught people.

Sijietang didn't care about these things, but this matter spread to the ears of those old-fashioned people with advanced cultivation bases, and Mr. Xu talked about the principles that cultivators of immortals should abide by the Taoist heart, have few emotions and desires, and concentrate on cultivation .

It was the end of June, it was very hot, and the cicadas were singing loudly.

Sitting together with Xie Changming, Chen Yibai muttered in a low voice: "It's very boring, gentlemen are all like this. It's like this in the world, but it's no different in the cultivation world."

He sighed again: "Oh."

After sighing, he furtively glanced at Xie Changming again, very strange, as if he wanted to say something, but didn't say it.

Xie Changming didn't care.After all, Chen Yibai's brain is not very smart, and he often has many whimsical ideas. If he needs to figure out all of them, he may not have enough time.

The class was lethargic.

Before the get out of class ended, Mr. Xu finally put away the long speech, shook his fan, and said unhurriedly: "What I just said is the teaching from the above. Just listen to it and don't pay attention. Can you Regardless of finding a Taoist companion, if you can really find it, it will be a merit."

Most of the students sitting below were only in their teens, and it was a good time to be young and frivolous. In fact, I really agreed with Mr. Xu's words, but after hearing what he said, he couldn't help but argue, and asked loudly : "Sir, why did you say that? There are many virtuous seniors in the academy who say that things about love are either obsessed with desire, or hurt and self-pity. In short, they all hinder Taoism. How can such things be considered meritorious deeds?" Woolen cloth?"

Mr. Xu has never stopped people from arguing with him, nor used his power to overwhelm others. Hearing this, he said with a smile: "So those seniors don't have Taoist companions. Those who have Taoist companions, do they still have time to preach with you?"

The whole house roared with laughter.

Mr. Xu said: "The fungi don't know the dark days, and the crickets don't know the spring and autumn. The fulfillment of life does not lie in cultivating the Tao, nor in the Taoist companions, but in one's own heart."

"Flowers can be broken when they bloom. Don't wait for no flowers to break branches. That's all."

When he said this, his voice gradually lowered, and with the ringing of the bell, I don't know how many people heard it.

Obviously, Chen Yibai must not have heard it. He had already turned around and asked Xie Changming beside him: "Brother Xie, have you ever thought about what kind of Taoist companion you will walk with in the future?"

Xie Changming said: "I thought you were concentrating on cultivating the Tao."

Chen Yibai shook his head: "When I was young, my family suffered a catastrophe. The whole family was gone. I was the only one left. I was picked up by Wanfamen. Fortunately, I had some talents and was not refined into a human pill. I still haven't figured it out. Amiable elders..."

He paused for a moment, then changed the subject abruptly: "When I practiced Taoism, I didn't want to die at first, but I wanted to live forever. After all, I was the only survivor in the whole family. If I died too, there would be no one in our family. But now Think about it, if there is no one to accompany you, if you are alone, even if you live forever, it seems that you will not be very happy."

"Brother Xie thinks?"

Xie Changming was startled.

He has lived for nearly 100 years, and he has never cared about anyone, and naturally he has never walked with anyone.

I can’t remember the first ten years of the first life. I ate fruit, woke up after three years of sleep, and picked up a bird. After a few years of noisy and good times, I spent most of the time running for my life. Maybe it was There was a bird on his shoulder, but he didn't feel tired.

In the second life, I was busy taking revenge and looking for birds. I didn't have time to go to the mountains, rivers, lakes and seas. I only thought that the four continents were too big and it was too easy to hide a bird, and I didn't feel lonely.

Until now, Xie Changming has been traveling alone for far more years than he was with birds, and he never thought of finding a companion.

He only looks for birds that travel with him.

As for the bird, I met another one in this life.

Thinking about it this way, there seems to be something wrong.

If it is in the storybook, young people met and entrusted their lives to each other—in fact, Xie Xiaoqi's life was unilaterally entrusted to Xie Changming.In short, the spirit beast that has been with the master for more than ten years must finally turn into a human being, and in order to repay the kindness of many years, make a lifelong agreement with the master and become a Taoist companion.

But the reality is that Xie Xiaoqi is a little trash, unable to cultivate a human form, so it is impossible for him to be called "Master" shyly and timidly like in the script.

Can't think any more.

Xie Changming shook his head.

He felt that he was being poisoned by Chen Yibai, and he thought of these things in random ways.

If he had to tell the reason for the relationship between him and Xiao Bald, he thought it was the deep love between father and son.

It's just that it's too early to be a father.

Xie Changming regained his composure, and hit Chen Yibai because he said too much because of his brains just now: "The Dao Companion Ceremony will cost a lot of spirit stones, you may have to weigh your wallet first."

Chen Yibai: "?"

Obviously just now I was still daydreaming, why did I suddenly switch to the reality of the world.

Can't even dream!

In short, during the days when there is a curfew and drinking and gatherings are prohibited, the trend of making friends with Taoists in the academy, or under the guise of schoolmates, is actually intensifying secretly.

Until the academy notifies that Zhezhi will start to register, it will last for three days, and there will be no waiting after the deadline.

As soon as the news came out, the unhealthy atmosphere really turned for the better. There were even students who had verbally agreed to become Taoist couples fighting, and they broke up because they were discussing how to deal with each other if they met in the arena.

On the first day, Xie Changming received the message from Mr. Xu and was unmoved.

On the second day, Xie Changming tutored Sheng Liuyu for a whole day, because he was more fierce than before, and the little Changming bird scolded him for a long time, and did not come up with any new tricks.

On the third day, Xie Changming read the idle books all morning until noon, when Midday passed, he finally put down the books, took the jade token, and rushed to Zhuyu Pavilion in Duobi Mountain.

Today's Langyue Courtyard is very quiet, only the sound of cicadas.

Xie Changming turned around three teleportation formations and finally arrived at Duobi Mountain.

Today is the afternoon of the last day, if you want to participate in the Broken Branch Meeting, you should have signed up long ago.Xie Changming originally thought that there would not be many people and that it could be resolved quickly.The result was still a sea of ​​people, and the small courtyard of Zhuyu Pavilion was so crowded that its feet did not touch the ground.

Xie Changming stood in the crowd, silently listening to the chatter of the people around him.

"Brother He, didn't you say you won't participate in the Branch Breaking Meeting? Why are you here?"

"Hey, after thinking about it, the opportunity is rare. Although my cultivation base is shallow, I still want to give it a try."

"Brother He, why did you say that? Your saber skills are obvious to all, and you should have shown your style at the Branch Breaking Festival."

"By the way, it's true that you have been eager to try Broken Branch for a long time, why did you wait until today?"

"Sigh, there are so many talented people in the academy, I was afraid of losing face, so it was only on the last day that I managed to muster up the courage to come."

In addition, there are those who don’t want to come, those who are driven by their husbands, some Taoist couples are very envious of the leader of Zhezhi, so they feel uneasy, and they have to come to try their skills, and they want to become the dream of Taoist couples. Some also had the same idea as Xie Changming, thinking that there were few people on the last day, so there was no need to squeeze with others.

Everyone has various reasons to sign up on the last day, resulting in such a result.

When there are too many people, it becomes chaotic.

A senior brother stood in front of the vestibule. Seeing the complexity of the courtyard, he became angry and shouted: "Everyone, brothers and sisters, take me as the boundary. The one on the left is the spring season, the right is the summer season, and the autumn season is on the right." The right of the same level is to be courteous to the younger generation, wait for a while, wait for the younger brothers and younger sisters to report their favor, and then register for you. In each season, each gentleman is different, and then line up in a line."

With the charter, the scene is finally no longer chaotic.

Xie Changming asked people, found Mr. Xu's team, before standing still, three more people came.

They are Ruan Liuxia, Chen Yibai, and Cong Yuan.

The four of them looked at each other, a little suffocated.

Ruan Liuxia glared angrily, and broke the silence among the four of them first: "It's not that I'm afraid like those people, that's why I hesitated until today, but because I couldn't spare a few days ago!"

Ruan Liuxia was supposed to come here on the first day, but Zhou Xiaoluo has been feeling restless for the past few days, always saying that she is uncomfortable, but she can't find the reason, so she had to take care of Zhou Xiaoluo, and then ran to the uncle, wanting to ask why.I have been busy for several days, and I can only take time out on the last day.

After finishing speaking, he crossed his arms and asked, "It's you, none of you mentioned that you wanted to come when you were in the yard, so you bumped into them anyway."

Her gaze first fell on Chen Yibai who was opposite him.

Chen Yibai lowered his head and lowered his eyes, thought for a long time, Nuonuo said: "I'm here, I want you to take care of it."

Chen Yibai used to practice in Wanfamen, and later Wanfamen was burned down by Xie Changming, and he practiced alone for three years. He is a young casual cultivator, he has not cultivated any way, and he is still in the foundation building stage.

When he came this time, he probably still couldn't bear the attraction of the leader of the Broken Branch Club, and wanted to pursue his dream silently, without even telling Xie Changming.If you lose, no one will know, just pretend you never came.

Ruan Liuxia didn't ask any further questions, but looked at Cong Yuan again.

Cong Yuan is a very timid half-demon, because he is afraid of revealing his identity when interacting with people, he simply pretends to be indifferent and withdrawn. Such a temperament is unlikely to be his own.

So, there is only one other possibility.

Cong Yuan is very calm. Since the last debate, he has given up on himself, and now he is even more blunt: "My father forced me to go home if I can't say it."

Ruan Liuxia spat: "No ambition."

Finally, his eyes moved to Xie Changming.

Ruan Liuxia sneered: "What about you? You can't say it!"

Xie Changming said calmly, "I changed my mind, can't I?"

Naturally, there is no reason why it should not work.

Ruan Liuxia had nothing to say and snorted coldly.

She was quiet, Chen Yibai became lively again, he lost his dejected appearance just now, and chatted with great interest again.

He asked Xie Changming: "You always go out these days, what are you doing when you're not in the yard?"

Cong Yuan looked at Chen Yibai with some fear in his eyes.In his opinion, Xie Changming is a highly cultivated monk who hides among the students and pretends to be ordinary. He doesn't know what purpose he has. He should stay as far away as possible. How can he find out about his whereabouts?Do you want to die?

Xie Changming was about to fool him casually, when Chen Yibai asked himself and answered: "Last time in Mr. Xu's class, he acted so guilty, as if he was angry from embarrassment. You probably also asked some fairy to have a romantic relationship, right?" !"

Sure enough, Chen Yibai had a different idea.

Xie Changming said seriously: "You think too much."

He didn't know any fairies, and he didn't go to talk about love, but went to tutor a cursing bird.

Chen Yibai was skeptical, probably because he felt that he couldn't ask why, so he could only believe it.

He was well-informed and willing to share with everyone. He pointed out in the crowd the disciples who were outstanding in their respective sects and introduced them. Even Ruan Liuxia pricked up his ears to eavesdrop.

Chen Yibai spoke happily, and then said: "However, among these people, the one with the highest cultivation level is the Golden Core. It is said that the sect does not want their disciples to improve their cultivation level too quickly, but lays a solid foundation first, otherwise Cultivation is like a castle in the air, the future will be unstable and the future will be difficult."

Among the four people, only Ruan Liuxia came from a famous family, she nodded when she heard the words: "Master really taught that."

Chen Yibai and Ruan Liuxia have always been at loggerheads, and it was rare to get her affirmation. He became even more excited and talked about some rumors: "I heard that some sects are reluctant to part with disciples with outstanding aptitude and protect them very well. But for those with average aptitude Disciples, they will grow up again, so that they can quickly enter the golden core stage and work for the sect."

Speaking of this, Chen Yibai deliberately lowered his voice so that only the four of them could hear it.

Hearing this, Xie Changming suddenly turned his head and asked, "What is that?"

Inexplicably, Chen Yibai felt that he was asking about something very important. He just wanted to share a gossip, but now he became nervous, and said in a low voice: "I heard it too, but I don't know if it is true or not. I heard that there is a medicinal pill. After taking it, the cultivation base has made rapid progress, and the progress has been rapid, but it can only stop at the golden elixir stage, and can no longer improve the cultivation base in this life. Because this cultivation base is obtained by cutting off the Taoist heart, and from the golden elixir to the Yuanying, it is necessary I asked my heart."

Xie Changming was taken aback.

The author has something to say:

Thanks: call dad

bird:?

A story of paternal love.
