This attitude changed too quickly.
Fang Xiaoxie, who had been bullied by Chen Jiu since she entered the sect, had never seen such a "wonderful sight" before. She forgot to be afraid for a moment and just stared with her eyes wide open, not daring to believe what she saw.
Chen Jiu really had no words to express his grievances, and he just felt ashamed.
But what can he do
He is also helpless!
At this moment, he could only pretend that he had never said those weird and ridiculous words just now, and act the role of a good junior brother who was always longing for the senior sister to come back in front of Jianchou.
Jianchou couldn't help but laugh: "It's been a long time since we last met. I just heard Junior Brother Shen say something about being a big boss or not, what's going on?"
Oh my god, are you going to let me live
Chen Jiu almost wanted to cry, his handsome face turned bitter. He knew that if he didn't admit his guilt, Jianchou would not let it go, so he raised his hands and admitted his guilt and surrendered.
"I was wrong. In our Yashan, Senior Sister Jianchou, you are the undisputed leader. No one dares to deny it!"
Well, that sounds much more comfortable.
Although the title of "big brother" seems a bit strange...
But who cares
When Jianchou saw Chen Ju, he found that he looked the same as when they first parted at Zuo Sanqian's party. Although sixty years had passed, there had not been much change. For a moment he just felt a sense of familiarity.
Standing under the sword-drawing platform, she raised her head and looked around.
The majestic Yashan Mountain rises high into the clouds.
The top of the sword that pierced the sky was hidden in the clouds, and the sound of an eagle's cry could be heard faintly. Going down was the Moon-Lan Hall, the plank road, and the meeting hall below.
The flat and wide Lingzhao Peak was right under her feet.
A huge, rusty, nameless iron sword was deeply inserted into the ground, supporting the high sword-drawing platform and casting a large shadow on the ground.
The Guihe Well, located in the center of Lingzhao Peak, still had calm waters, with wind and thunder signals from all over floating on it.
Several white cranes with graceful postures floated on the water.
Of course, Jianchou also saw the big white goose paddling freely in the water with its webbed feet…
At this moment, the corner of her mouth suddenly twitched.
An impulse to suspect that she was dazzled surged into her heart, and she almost wanted to rub her eyes hard to verify whether she was seeing things.
Are you kidding me…
Sixty years have passed, and Yashan is still the same as before, she is not surprised; but this big silly goose, which she gave to Fudaoshan as a gift for becoming his disciple, is still alive
Do the geese from the Nineteenth Continent have such long lives
For a moment, the expression on Jianchou's face became indescribable. His eyes fell on the big white goose paddling freely in the water, and he couldn't take his eyes away for a long time.
How could Shen Jiu not see such an obvious reaction
Just looking at this big white goose, his heart was also very complicated. He spoke in a tone that was even more difficult to describe than the expression on Jianchou's face: "It's not surprising that this goose of yours can survive until now. Over the past sixty years, our unreliable master has fed it a lot of elixirs..."
Feed the panacea, give...
Goose
To this big white goose?!
Jianchou felt as if a bolt of lightning had struck from the top of his head, exploding him so much that he no longer knew where he was.
Wasn't the goose originally intended to be cooked and eaten
Who can tell her why this guy was not only not eaten by the greedy Fudaoshan people, but instead was moving towards the state of "immortality" which ordinary people could never reach
simply…
It was difficult to express in a few words the complicated feelings she was feeling at the moment.
Fortunately, by this time, everyone around had gathered around.
Although Yashan has accepted female disciples in recent years, no one with such demeanor and cultivation, let alone one who has never been seen before, suddenly appeared at Lingzhaoding. Without any effort, everyone knew that this was the legendary "Master Jianchou".
Thus, in just a short moment, all the disciples who were previously on top of Lingzhao stopped and looked towards her.
From the high cliffs of Yashan Mountain, a joyful shout was heard: "Big Sister, Big Sister is back!"
That was the voice of the fat boy Jiang He.
When Jianchou looked up, he saw a dark red light flying down from the mountain wall and landing in front of him.
He is still the same little fat boy from that year, short, only as tall as his waist; with fair skin, big black eyes, and quite cute.
He was shouting loudly on the cliff before, but when he came down, he became shy again.
Jiang He opened his mouth, but didn't know what to say.
However, the third junior brother Kou Qianzhi and the sixth junior brother Chen Weishan who followed were more relaxed.
Chen Weishan still looked dazed. He touched his head and happily called out “Hello, Senior Sister”.
Kou Qianzhi was holding the Daodao sword in his arms, with an appearance of a sword fanatic who said, "I don't care about anything else except the sword." When he saw Jianchou, he just smiled and said, "Senior Sister has improved his cultivation again. When I have time one day, I will definitely exchange ideas with you."
"That's easy."
Jianchou answered readily.
When she first started learning, her skills were minimal, and even a sword fanatic like Kou Qianzhi would be too embarrassed to fight her.
Now that she is the number one in the Nascent Soul stage, there is no need to be polite.
But when Chen Jiu heard this, he scratched his beautiful painted fan with his slender fingers, snorted sourly, and only said four words that did not hide his contempt at all -
"It's just humiliation!"
"… "
At this moment, the atmosphere above Lingzhao suddenly became cold.
With Chen Jiu and Kou Qianzhi as the center, it seemed as if lightning flashed in the eyes of the two as they looked at each other. In a trance, a strong wind blew, and sand and stones flew everywhere.
The two people's energies collided almost immediately!
Before anyone could even try to persuade him, Kou Qianzhi replied coldly, "Really?"
“Zheng—”
A sword energy suddenly rose out of nowhere, and the sword of Taoism, which had been hidden in the sheath, was pulled out directly and attacked Chen Jiu like lightning.
"You are so bold, do you think I can't deal with you? Let's fight!"
Shen Ju has done this kind of thing many times and is very familiar with the process.
This is the most well-known bad habit in Yashan, the 19th island.
Draw your sword if you disagree!
No matter who is right or wrong, just fight first!
Chen Jiu has always had this temper. He was like this when Qu Zhengfeng was around, and it would not change even after Qu Zhengfeng left.
What's the point of teaching Fang Xiaoxie, a newbie who has only been in the profession for a few years, all day long
Not even enough to fill the gaps between teeth!
It’s more exciting to fight with these fellow brothers!
He laughed, and a silver-shining "nothing but a sword" came out of its sheath. He flew back and reached the sword-drawing platform, where he immediately started fighting with Kou Qianzhi who had followed closely behind.
Suddenly, one could see sword shadows overlapping sword shadows, and sword qi colliding with sword qi.
On the entire sword-drawing platform, not even the human figure could be seen clearly.
What a familiar scene.
Jianchou stood there, speechlessly recalling the outcome of the fight between Chen Jiu and Qu Zhengfeng on the sword-drawing stage over a disagreement. Then, looking at his current fight with Kou Qianzhi, he finally couldn't bear it and turned his eyes away.
Forget it, just pretend you didn’t see it.
cough.
She raised her hand, clenched her fist and placed it on her lips, coughed to cover it up, and turned back to ask Jiang He and Chen Weishan: "Come to think of it, Junior Brother Bai Yin brought Zuo Liu back earlier than I did. Why didn't I see him?"
"I was just about to tell you, Senior Sister." Jiang He was reminded and suddenly remembered. He patted his head and said, "Junior Brother Zuo Liu has gone into seclusion and seems to have some new insights. Senior Brother Bai Yin is now in the Moon-Lanning Hall, discussing matters with the head brother. The head brother has just noticed that Senior Sister has returned. Please go to the Moon-Lanning Hall."
After all, he disappeared for sixty years, and who knows how many things happened in the meantime, not to mention that he caused so much trouble just after returning, including the Silver Building, Qu Zhengfeng and the Nine-Layered Heaven Monument, so of course we have to talk about it.
This was also within Jianchou's expectations.
But I didn’t expect that Zuo Liu would go into seclusion again
After this kid was brought back to Yashan, I'm afraid he hasn't even become my disciple yet, and now in the blink of an eye he's going into seclusion again.
A fellow who came from a self-taught background and has reached this point without any guidance, I really don't know if there will be anyone willing to accept him as a disciple when he comes out of seclusion.
But now is not the time to think about these things, Jianchou put the matter aside for the time being and just nodded: "Then I will go to the headmaster first, and then come back to reminisce with my fellow apprentice brothers."
"kindness."
Chen Weishan and Jiang He both responded. As for the two people on the sword-drawing platform, they naturally heard nothing. They were still immersed in the fierce battle and had no time to distract themselves.
Jianchou didn't care about anything else and immediately flew into the air, heading straight for the steep and majestic cliffs of Yashan Mountain, and landed in a simple stone pavilion that was slanted out from the cliff and hidden by the clouds.
A long and wide road was carved out in the belly of the mountain, hollowing out the mountain wall, connecting this stone pavilion and the Moon-Lanyue Hall on the other side of the mountain.
She had been to the Lanyue Palace before, so she was familiar with the place and walked in in just three or two steps.
It is still the Moon-Lan Palace of the past.
During the day, the Lanyue Palace is well lit and bright. At a glance, you can see the floating clouds outside, and looking down you can also see the rushing water of the Jiutou River tributary.
Looking around, there was not a single chair to be found.
Only the crane holding a lantern that seemed to have grown out of the ground and the large three-legged bronze tripod that fell in the hall could prove that this was indeed the main hall of Yashan, just like the One Crane Hall in Kunwu.
At this moment, Zheng Yao, the head of Yashan, was sitting cross-legged casually on the shiny ground. Diagonally opposite him was Bai Yin, who was also forced to sit like this.
Zheng Yao saw Jianchou as soon as he came in.
The slightly plump face was immediately filled with smiles, and he quickly waved to Jianchou: "Haha, I finally see the senior sister back. I have been worried for a while. Hurry up and sit down, hurry up and sit down!"
… sit
Jianchou was speechless. He looked at Zheng Yao, who looked normal, and then at Bai Yin, who was also sitting on the ground next to him.
Although she had not had much contact with Bai Yin, she could easily tell that this junior brother was obviously a gentleman, and in the Yashan sect that produced many strange things, he was considered a refreshing stream.
Now, sitting casually with the Sect Leader in the Moon-Lanyue Hall with nothing in sight, I felt particularly helpless.
He just spread his hands towards Jianchou, his meaning was still very clear -
Everyone was forced.
Who would have thought that Yashan, a famous sect known to all the people in the 19 continents, not only did not have a single chair in the main hall, but even the sect leader had to sit on the ground when he convened meetings
If Jianchou didn't know something about the background of their sect, he would probably think that Yashan was extremely poor.
All of this can be summed up in one sentence:
Our Dayashan is magnificent! It is indeed different from those vulgar sects outside!
Jianchou comforted himself with a few words in his heart, bowed calmly and said "Greetings, Master", then walked over, lifted the hem of his robe, and sat cross-legged next to Bai Yin.
The hem of the robe embroidered with intricate cloud patterns just covered the knees, which was truly pleasing to the eye.
The leader Zheng Yao never puts on airs in front of his own people, probably because he has a secret to maintain his youthful appearance. Although he is a little fat, his skin is white and smooth, comparable to that of a baby, which is very good.
Seeing Jianchou sit down, he started asking questions one by one.
He started by asking about what happened between Jianchou and the others in the hidden world of Qingfeng Temple, and went all the way to the dispute over the Jiyu Ding.
Jianchou naturally explained the whole thing one by one, the whole cause and effect, and it was not until the battle with King Qin Guang that the matter ended.
"After that, I fell into that strange space crack and slept for sixty years. When I came out, I woke up under the Peach Tree Ghost Gate in Dongji."
"That is to say, King Qin Guang's cultivation is extremely profound and terrifying, and there is quite a bit of entanglement between the Extreme Region and Buddhism, especially with the Snow Region Esoteric Sect."
After listening to this, Zheng Yao had an idea in his mind.
"We have noticed this over the years. The war between the Yin and Yang worlds is true, but Uncle Fudao knows the cause and effect of it better. I think I'll tell you in detail after he comes out of retreat in a few days. It's a great blessing for us at Yashan that you can return safely, Senior Sister."
Jianchou felt sorry that the ghost axe was left in the hands of King Qin Guang. Now he had no weapon in his hand except the deer-cutting knife.
However, when she heard Zheng Yao say that Fudaoshan was about to come out of seclusion, she immediately raised her head.
"Master, will you come out of retreat in a few days?"
"Yes, it is not a good idea to have your cultivation level decline day by day. Uncle Master has been in seclusion for many years."
Zheng Yao sighed and counted on his fingers.
"Seven days from now there will be a small meeting of Zuo Sanqian. At that time, Zhenren Hengxu will come to contact Uncle Fudao for all matters. So, he will definitely come out of retreat. Senior Sister, you also know that the leader is the most important in Kunwu, and the law enforcement elders are the most important in Yashan. What you have seen and heard in the Jiyuyu is quite important. But the specifics, I think De will make a decision when Uncle Fudao comes out of retreat."
The two gates of Yashan and Kunwu have different traditions.
However, if we talk about the fact that the status of the leader of Yashan is not as high as that of the law enforcement elder, isn’t it because every leader is too lazy to be the leader, is obsessed with cultivation, and doesn’t want to deal with worldly affairs
Nowadays, Fudaoshanren is more idle than Zheng Yao, all because Zheng Yao is not good at passing the buck!
Jianchou felt ashamed for a long while, but after hearing Zheng Yao's high-sounding words, he couldn't expose them directly, so he just pretended to understand and said, "Then I will ask you in detail about the confusion when Master comes out of retreat."
"Yes." Zheng Yao nodded, and then said, "This time, Senior Sister can be regarded as a blessing in disguise. She cultivated to the Nascent Soul stage in one fell swoop, and was ranked first in the Nine Heavens Monument, squeezing out the King of Kunwu. It's really great. Well, Senior Sister, you might as well take a good rest these few days. There are many new disciples in the sect."
“Yes.”
Jianchou started laughing immediately.
"I saw it just after I came back, especially the disciple who fought with Junior Brother Chen Jiu on the sword-drawing stage. He looked very talented and determined. I guess he should be the favorite to win the championship this year?"
"Ha ha ha ha… "
When this was mentioned, Zheng Yao couldn't help but burst into laughter with pride.
"His name is Fang Xiaoxie. I picked him up when I was wandering around outside two years ago. He is my direct disciple. How is he? His cultivation is pretty good, right? Although he has only been practicing for ten years, this time, he will definitely make those little Kunwu brats kneel down!"
"… "
Is he the personal disciple who is thrown to Chen Jiu for training every day
Jianchou looked at Bai Yin, who was also speechless beside him, and suddenly felt extremely tired.
Perhaps, unreliable masters are also one of the “specialties” of Yashan.
She really didn't want to make any comment, so she nodded vaguely in agreement.
The three old monster-level monks sat on the ground like beggars on the street, and chatted about this and that for a long time.
Finally, Zheng Yaocai suddenly exclaimed "Oh!" and remembered something.
"I almost forgot. If I remember correctly, your Ghost Axe is left in the Extreme Region. It won't be back for a while, right?"
"right."
I was worried about this matter, and I had some other thoughts in my mind.
Zheng Yao waved his hand carelessly and laughed, "What a coincidence! The day after tomorrow is the day when the armory will be opened in Yashan. Why don't you lead the boys to the armory to choose some magic weapons? The armory has added some new magic weapons in recent years. You can also choose some while you are at it. Who knows, you might find something that suits you."
arsenal
Jianchou was stunned for a moment, and the magnificent scene when the armory was opened and the countless long swords covered under ice and snow emerged in his mind.
In the past, she was not recognized by any magic weapon except the Ghost Axe, because her three souls and seven spirits were missing. Now that she has returned from the Extreme Territory, although her soul and spirit have not been completely repaired, it is expected to be much better than before.
I wonder if the situation can change
As soon as she thought of this, she couldn't help but think of the rusty and bloodstained sword frozen on the top of the mountain...
A line of sky.
People say that there is a ray of hope between heaven and immortal.
After all, I am still a little bit salivating.
But it was just a thought for now. Jianchou felt that he should worry more about the "self-examination disaster" that was coming soon.
At that moment, he only replied to Zheng Yao: "Then I will take them to the armory the day after tomorrow and select them at the same time. I hope we can find the right one."
That’s pretty much what I have to say.
She stood up with Bai Yin and said goodbye to Zheng Yao. The two of them came out of the Lanyue Palace and jumped down from the stone pavilion, landing on the top of Lingzhao again.
At this time, Shen Jiu and Kou Qianzhi had already finished fighting, and the battle ended with Shen Jiu's defeat.
The disciples who were watching the excitement also dispersed one after another.
Jianchou raised his hand and was about to say goodbye to Bai Yin, wanting to go back to his room to really rest for a while. Unexpectedly, at this moment, some indescribable strange laughs came from the Guihe Well.
"Hehehe, hehehe, hehehe..."
When she heard the voice, her eyelids twitched suddenly. When she looked up, she felt as if her vision went dark.
—It’s a little mink.
As early as when it first climbed up the cliff mountain and passed by the tombs of thousands of cultivators on the river beach in front, it could no longer stay there and was determined to jump out of the spirit beast bag.
Jianchou thought that this was the place where the little mink appeared. It must have known that it was "going home", so it was particularly excited.
So she put it down.
But unexpectedly, it somehow reached the top of Lingzhao without anyone noticing.
At this moment, he was squatting beside the Guihe Well, with one paw on his soft belly and the other paw raised to point at the big white geese and the cranes on the water. He opened his mouth wide and made the same weird laugh that he had just made.
This is an expression of "laughing out loud" or even "laughing to tears"!
Perhaps it was because its mouth was opened too wide, or its laughter was too exaggerated, the Dijiang Bone Jade that had been hidden in its teeth since the Jiyuyu, suddenly fell down!
"Gudong."
With a soft sound of falling into water, the little bone jade, still drowsy, had fallen into the water!
“Flutter!”
This sudden change frightened the big white goose in the well so much that it spread its two fat wings and started shouting at the top of its goose voice.
"Hehehehe—hiccup!"
Xiao Diao's exaggerated laughter suddenly stopped and he was stunned.
Such a scene is totally unexpected!
It looks like this tiny mink, pointing at the Guihe Well where geese and cranes coexist, and it laughed so hard that a big white tooth fell off.
Even more dramatic is...
Just a moment later, the big white goose, which had swallowed countless elixirs, finally reacted: How dare this goose invade its territory? Even these noble and cold cranes in the well have to give in to it? !
There is someone on top of this goose!
"Hua La La..."
“Flutter!”
The big goose, covered in snow-white, shook its smooth feathers, rushed forward without saying a word, opened its flat beak and pecked at it!
“Bang!”
Hit hard!
The Dijiang Bone Jade, which had just floated to the surface, was immediately pecked into the water and finally woke up.
He turned his head with difficulty in the surging waves of Guihe Well, only to see such a huge snow-white monster chasing after him and pecking at him with its mouth. He was so scared that his eyes became the same size.
Then his mouth pursed and he burst into tears with a "wow".
At this moment, the Guihejing area suddenly became very lively.
Dijiang Guyu cried loudly and used all his strength to paddle in the water with his two short legs that were like sticks to escape. The arrogant big white goose, which thought it had someone above it, flapped its wings and chased it frantically, pecking the little bone into the water continuously.
On the shore, Xiao You was stunned for a long while, then he pounded the ground and laughed again, even more frantic than before: “Hahahahahahahahahaha…”
"… "
Jianchou, who had just come down from Lanyue Palace, suddenly felt a particularly gloomy feeling in front of his eyes. Somehow, the words that Chen Jiu had said not long ago popped up in his mind.
—Bow to the boss.
Who can tell her what this goose has been through in the past 60 years
