The weather outside is wonderful.

Gui and Elizabeth walked out slowly, feeling the warm sunshine that had not been seen for ten years, and felt a lot in an instant.

Behind him, deep in the shadow of the ancestor's ancestral hall, there were two eyes staring at him quietly.After a while, a figure came out slowly.

It was the mysterious old man with wrinkled face. He slowly walked out of the shadows and sat down on the steps of the Patriarch's Ancestral Hall. His eyes stayed on Gui's back. After a long time, he said lightly, "It's fine."

Hearing this, Gui turned around and bowed to him, "Thank you for taking care of me all these years!"

The old man looked at his face, with a smile on his lips, and said: "Your aptitude is really good, and you work so hard, and your entry is far better than I expected. Although many things you have done have left me dumbfounded. ..."

Looking back on the past ten years, the old man was silent for a while.

Ordinary people know that they have done something wrong and need to accept punishment. When they go to the ancestor's ancestral hall to meditate on their past, they are usually quiet.However, on the third day after he came in, various things began to overturn his three views.

For example, in winter, there is heavy snow outside the ancestral hall.Inside the shrine:

The white creature, Elizabeth, did not know where to carry the quilt, and by the way, she also had a big stone pot on her head, and she was holding a lot of fresh meat and vegetable seasonings, so she sat down in front of the ancestors. In order to have a hot pot, Gui was happy to see him and asked him to join him.By the way, I don't know how I got the news on the way, Zeng Shushu, the son of Zeng Shuchang of Fenghuifeng, suddenly appeared with a bowl in his hand, and yelled, "You guys are too good, you don't call me when you start a small stove!" What? Then also added a copy;

Another example is when spring comes, and when it’s a bit chilly, the white creature Elizabeth moved a grill from nowhere, and started baking rice cakes with Gui in an upright manner.When he saw him, Gui was eating and wanted to ask him to come with him when he was suddenly stuck by the rice cake. His whole body convulsed for a long time, and his face turned red and purple. Waiting for the series of moves, he finally escaped unharmed;

For example, summer is here, and the weather is hot.The white creature Elizabeth dragged a big raft, which was filled with cool water, and Gui suddenly put on a strange dress he called a swimsuit and jumped into it to cool off the heat.What made him even more horrified was that Elizabeth suddenly opened his white skin and took out two huge round watermelons.After Elizabeth smashed the watermelon with a knife covering her face, each of them happily started to eat one by one.By the way, Zeng Shushu popped out again in the middle of chewing.However, he seemed to be hiding from something, took two yuan and ran away quickly.Not long after, I heard the voice of a strong middle-aged man shouting: "Stinky boy, don't come back tonight!!!"

Another example is that autumn is here.There were fallen leaves outside, and before Elizabeth appeared, the old man was already sweeping the fallen leaves while thinking about what it would bring this time.Unexpectedly, at this moment, Elizabeth suddenly appeared in front of him.But unexpectedly, it was empty-handed this time.The old man who was still surprised didn't open his mouth yet, but Elizabeth picked up the leaves he had swept into a pile and carried them into the ancestral hall.Not long after that, Zeng Shushu appeared holding a large pile of sweet potatoes and taro in both hands. The two of them stuffed these things into the leaves and roasted them together.

blah blah blah———

The old man said that he had never seen such a character disciple in his life!

But at the same time, I have never seen a disciple with such good aptitude!

Daoxuan Daoxuan's purpose of sending him in, the punishment was just an excuse, in reality it was to let him practice cultivation on him.And Gui's absorption ability, actual combat experience, and even willpower and mental power have far surpassed many elders, and it can be said that he is a genius like no other in a million!

In the past ten years, the old man taught him everything, and Gui also absorbed it like a sponge. After a short time, his cultivation had already broken through to the super-clear state.

The old man is optimistic about him.Gui also respects this mysterious old man very much.

Gui did abide by Daoxuan's punishment, and never came out after entering the ancestral hall of the ancestor.And in this ancestral hall, besides him, he saw the mysterious old man he had seen before.

As early as that time, Gui had already realized that this old man was extraordinary.And when he got his guidance after he went in, he became more and more sure that the old man's identity was suspicious.If Gui's guess is correct, the cultivation level of the old man in front of him is definitely comparable to that of his master Daoxuan.

However, no matter how Gui asked or clichéd, the old man refused to disclose any information about himself, which made Gui even more suspicious.

But even so, he will not obliterate his cultivation of himself.

Thinking of this, Gui bowed deeply again, and said in a low voice, "Thank you very much for your careful teaching of me over the past ten years."

The old man waved his hand lightly, then sighed: "In the blink of an eye, it's been another ten years. Actually, I don't have anything to teach you, and you have been with me in this ancestral hall for ten years."

"Sure enough, the purpose of master asking me to come here is not to punish me at all, but to let me learn from you."

The old man's expression changed.

He knew that the kid was smart, so he kept vigilant every time he made insinuations, and tried not to reveal any information about himself.Unexpectedly, he was finally drawn out.

Gui looked at him, and said word by word: "Your strength, looking at the whole Qingyun, I think only the master can be compared. However, you are such a master, but you are here to be a sweeping monk, unknown. After ten years of war, you You didn't even fight, but every time you mentioned us Qingyun, your expression and tone told me that you loved and respected me deeply. From this we can see that the reason why you didn't stand up in the original war is that on the one hand, you believed On the other hand, because you can't come out, right?"

The old man did not speak.

"I want to know that the only one you exist besides me now is the master. The reason why you can't come out is because you can't let anyone see you. However, the master knows your existence. Combining all these, master, hide , Master's attitude towards you and..."

"Uncle Cangsong."

Hearing the last title, the old man stared at Gui in shock.

"Could it be that you are Wan..."

"Enough!" When Gui almost said a certain name, the old man stopped him in time.

"It's enough, child, it's enough." The old man sighed deeply, and looked back at the place where he had been hiding all this time, "It's meaningless to say anything now. You don't need to say any more."

Of course Gui knew what he wanted to say, so he didn't mention it anymore.

After bowing to the old man again, he and Elizabeth left the ancestral hall where they had stayed for ten years.

The sun shone on his back, and it seemed a little dazzling.

The old man looked at his figure, dazed in a daze, and at some point, another figure appeared behind him.

"He's gone." The figure said calmly.

The corner of the old man's mouth twitched, he stood up slowly, and turned his head to look at this person, the supreme leader of Qingyun Sect.

"Unexpectedly, this kid Gui finally guessed your identity..."

"Thank you very much." He said suddenly.

Reverend Daoxuan also seemed to be slightly taken aback, frowned and said: "What?"

The old man passed through him, walked towards the hall of the ancestor's ancestral hall, and said in his mouth: "Thank you for allowing this young man to accompany me for ten years."

Reverend Daoxuan was silent for a moment, and slowly walked into the ancestral hall of the ancestors. In the middle of the hall, in front of the altar enshrining countless spiritual tablets of the ancestors of Qingyun, the lights and candles flickered on and off, and the faces of the people who illuminated them were also dark.

The old man walked up to the altar, picked up a brand new incense candle from the incense table in front of the altar, lit it on another incense candle, and replaced the burning incense candle next to it.

Reverend Daoxuan silently watched his slow and skillful movements, and suddenly said: "Back then I was willing to take great risks to save you without telling my teachers, but you didn't even have a word of thanks. Why did you do it for Gui today? thank me?"

The old man did not speak, but took a step back, in the shadows.

Returning to Tongtian Peak Yuqing Palace, the Yuqing Palace that was destroyed beyond recognition ten years ago has been completely restored.

Moreover, there were more than a dozen disciples standing there.Not even a lot of people he knew.

"Guizi!!" Seeing Gui, Zeng Shushu ran over with a bright smile on his face and shouted, "Congratulations on regaining your freedom..."

When he ran up to Gui, Zeng Shushu's smiling face froze.

Even Xiao Yicai, Qi Hao, and even Lu Xueqi, who were about to go up with smiles, were also stunned, all staring sideways at Gui's strange objects growing from head to toe—mushrooms.

Zeng Shushu, who still maintained a stiff smile, stared at the plump mushroom growing on top of Guizi's head, and asked, "Guizi, when did you become a pine tree?"

"It's not pine, it's osmanthus!" Gui said seriously, took off the mushroom on the top of his head and took a bite, "I can't help it, I've been in such a dark place like the ancestor's ancestral hall for too long, as soon as I come into contact with the sun Immediately a lot of mushrooms grew."

While Gui was talking, Elizabeth on the side was picking various mushrooms from Gui's body with a basket.This scene really made others dumbfounded.

"Probably absorbed the nutrients in my body, it's quite delicious! Do you want it?" Gui handed the half-eaten mushroom to Zeng Shushu, and Zeng Shushu took a step back.

"I'm afraid of indigestion, forget it."

Probably wanting to ease the atmosphere, Zeng Shushu suddenly looked at Qi Hao and asked, "Senior Brother Qi, this time the master master called us here, what's the big deal?"

Qi Hao waved his hand and said: "I don't know the details, but I heard that something happened in a certain place in the west, and the master master wants to send out the younger generation of outstanding disciples to experience it."

Zeng Shushu was also smiling all over his face, but suddenly his expression froze, as if he had thought of something, Qihao noticed it, and asked slightly surprised: "Junior Brother Zeng, what's wrong?"

Zeng Shushu smiled bitterly, and said, "Young generation, outstanding disciples go down the mountain to practice?" He shook his head lightly and sighed, "Why does this sound so familiar to me?"

He and Qi Hao looked at each other, and suddenly understood each other's intentions, the four people back then, now...

They turned their heads in unison and looked at the beautiful woman. Lu Xueqi stood there quietly, as if she didn't hear anything, and seemed to bury everything deep in her heart. Her bright eyes turned, and she looked at Lin Jingyu. He glanced at it, as if he wanted to see some shadow, but in the end, he moved away.

And Gui didn't seem to hear anything, and kept silent.

When Elizabeth picked off all the fungi from Gui's body, Daoxuan also came out.

Everyone saluted together, Reverend Daoxuan smiled and waved his hands, saying: "That's all, that's all, you guys sit down."

But among the disciples, except for Qi Hao who had a different status now and sat down under Daoxuan Daoxuan, the others were still standing.

After Taoist Cangsong defected, the seat of Longshou Peak was handed over to Qi Hao.

Reverend Daoxuan looked at Gui, and said with a smile: "Ten years have passed before you know it, Gui, you shouldn't make the same mistakes again, right?"

Gui nodded and said, "Yes, master."

"That's good." Reverend Daoxuan glanced at Xiao Yicai beside him, and said, "Yicai, tell me."

Xiao Yicai nodded and said, "Yes, Master."

After speaking, he walked out, glanced at the people around him, and said loudly: "Everyone, everyone, please come here today, there is one thing that needs our most outstanding disciples of Qingyun Sect to complete it."

When he said this, there was a sudden shock from everyone, Xiao Yicai smiled and continued: "Recently, there have been rumors all over the world that there has been a strange light in the Western Great Swamp recently, and it will last for several days. It is about to be born. Originally, only the virtuous were the spiritual things that descended from the sky, and we are not interested. But after the news spread, we heard that the demons and evil spirits are marching westward, intending to get their hands on them.”

Xiao Yicai waited for everyone to lower their voices and said with a smile, "If this news is false, that's fine, but if there are really rare treasures that fall into the hands of the demon sect, wouldn't it be a sham for the tiger. Qingyunmen has always been for the world. The leader of the right way, so the real head of the sect has decided to select outstanding disciples from the younger generation of this sect and go to the Western Great Swamp together, uphold justice and righteousness, and slay demons and demons."

Having said this, he paused for a while, and suddenly he had a mysterious taste, and said, "You juniors, there is another important point. I heard that Tianyin Temple and Fenxianggu also sent disciples to the Western Great Swamp today. Since ten After the war a few years ago, everyone knows in their hearts that these two factions are clearly in harmony with us, but they have been secretly peeping at the righteous leader for a long time. I hope you don’t lose your face!”

There was a commotion among the crowd, and someone suddenly shouted: "Relax, the headmaster, I will never lose the face of Qingyunmen!"

"Exactly, this time, we must let the demon sect and the people from Tianyin Temple Burn Incense Valley see how good we are!"

Daoxuan Zhenren smiled and nodded, stood up, and said: "This time to the west, there may be dangers, and the people in the demon sect are even more dangerous and cunning, so you have to worry about it on weekdays."

Everyone said in unison, "Yes."
