After turning his head, he saw that the person speaking was a woman wearing a green robe. She was quite slender, with delicate features and quite a bit of beauty. However, her face was as cold as frost, which diluted the others' impression of her. The feeling of closeness that arises.
At this time, she was walking out of the bamboo forest with a book in her arms, walked straight to the crowd, and sneered at Lu Qinghe: "Brother Lu, we can agree in advance, don't arrange his house in my house. I don’t like such insidious and cunning people around here!”
"Junior sister Wu, we will all be in the same sect from now on, why is this necessary?"
Lu Qinghe frowned slightly and said something displeased.
"Haha, fellow student?"
The green-robed woman looked Fang Yuan up and down and sneered, "I can't afford someone like this!"
After saying that, he glanced at the immortal disciples who had just greeted Fang Yuan, and sneered: "How many of you have practiced your spells proficiently? Have you read the scriptures thoroughly? Then you have the leisure to wander around here! After all, Junior Brother Zhou has studied with you and me for more than a year. He was framed by someone and expelled. Not only did you not take it seriously, but you were too busy making fun of an outsider?"
When the Xianmen disciples next to her heard what she said, they all became a little embarrassed and found it difficult to speak.
The woman held the scroll in her arms, turned around and left, sneering: "They say that the Immortal Sect is ungrateful and cold-blooded, but this is true!"
Seeing her walking away, the Immortal Sect disciples also looked at her words with scorn, and each found an excuse to disperse.
"Haha, Junior Brother Fang, don't be offended!"
Lu Qinghe had no choice but to explain to Fang Yuan with a wry smile: "That is Senior Sister Wu Qingwu. She practices very hard. She is also one of the most promising people in our Xiaozhu Peak to enter Feiyun Mountain. Several elders They all think highly of her, but her temperament is a bit direct. She has a very good personal relationship with Zhou Qingyue, because you are blamed for Zhou Qingyue’s incident, so I hope you won’t take it to heart!”
"This matter is unprepared, because Zhou Qingyue blames me for so many people?"
Fang Yuan shook his head slightly and asked calmly.
"It's not like that..."
Lu Qinghe sighed and said, "You must have seen just now that Zhou Qingyue had been taken away from the Immortal Borrow and driven down the mountain. Alas, yesterday the Discipline Hall strictly investigated the theft of the Qinglufeng Danfang, and it was unintentional The interrogation found out that Zhou Qingyue colluded with the disciples of Qinglu Peak to frame you. After the incident was exposed, the Immortal Sect naturally could not tolerate such behavior, so they expelled Zhou Qingyue from the door. He had brought it upon himself, and most of his fellow sects could understand. , but there are also a few who have good friendships with Zhou Qingyue, it’s hard to say what they think!”
"Thank you, Senior Brother Lu, I understand!"
Fang Yuan felt relieved. What he was most afraid of was that someone would bother him and prevent him from practicing in peace.
Lu Qinghe smiled and said: "It's good to understand. In fact, Senior Sister Wu Qing is not bad-hearted, but she is a little too serious. She is angry with you now because of Zhou Qingyue's matter. You can hide away if you can, but Be sure not to offend her..."
"What do you mean by this?"
Fang Yuan was stunned for a moment, looking at Lu Qinghe with some confusion.
Lu Qinghe sighed and said: "Senior Sister Wu Qing is in charge of the Qingfeng Poetry Society, that... is not a suitable enemy!"
After hearing such a meaningless sentence, Fang Yuan was immediately startled: "What is Qingfeng Poetry Society?"
Lu Qinghe saw that Fang Yuan really didn't understand, so he laughed and said: "It seems that Junior Brother Fang is really focused on practicing and doesn't care about things outside the window. Anyway, we are more compatible, so I will tell you. . The competition in the Immortal Sect has always been cruel and the pressure is huge. It is difficult to survive alone. I don’t know when it started. Among the disciples of the Immortal Sect, some people with similar temperaments began to hug each other for warmth and help each other in order to achieve success in the Immortal Sect. In the sect, or even in the world of cultivation, it is better to survive. Such existences often exist in the form of poetry clubs, sword alliances, etc. Therefore, as soon as the disciples of the celestial sect enter the sect, they must first join such a group. That’s it!”
"Does the Immortal Sect allow such things to exist?"
Fang Yuan was startled when he heard this, and asked with some confusion.
Lu Qinghe laughed: "If you go too far, the Immortal Sect will naturally not allow it, but under normal circumstances, the Immortal Sect is supportive. Firstly, this can cultivate the loyalty of the disciples, and secondly, it can also make the immortals The disciples understand the cruelty in the world of cultivation in advance, and what’s more, such an existence will often give birth to one or two outstanding leaders, which is what the Immortal Sect is happy to see!”
Fang Yuan pondered for a long time, then suddenly said: "What if you don't join?"
Lu Qinghe gave a bitter smile and said: "Joining or not is just a formality. You can do whatever you want. But in the Immortal Sect, you still need to have a backer. If you really have the strength and background, then why bother? Join others, and people will naturally come to you!”
Fang Yuan heard the implication: "Then if you have no strength, no background, and are unwilling to join them..."
Lu Qinghe smiled and said: "The result, do we need to say more?"
Fang Yuan nodded, thinking that there was really no need to say more, it was nothing more than exclusion, neglect, or even a blow.
After a while, he asked: "What is the status of Qingfeng Poetry Society in the immortal sect?"
Lu Qinghe frowned and thought for a while, then said: "The core of the Qingfeng Poetry Society, I think Junior Brother Fang also recognizes it, is your classmate in Taiyue City, Senior Brother Qi Xiaofengqi. He is one of Qingyang's Seven Young Masters, both in terms of strength and talent. , are all top-notch. In our Xiaozhu Peak, the Qingfeng Poetry Club should be one of the strongest. To put it bluntly, the reason why Junior Sister Wu Qing had a bad attitude towards you before was because there were rumors in the Immortal Sect that Zhou Qingyue had planned to Joined the Qingfeng Poetry Society, but before they agreed, something like this happened... "
As soon as he heard the words "Qi Xiaofeng", Fang Yuan almost understood.
He smiled bitterly and said, "Tell me the truth, besides Qingfeng Poetry Club, do I have any other choice?"
Lu Qinghe laughed: "Junior brother Fang is indeed a smart man. You must have understood what I mean. At this stage, the competition has just begun and is not so obvious yet. There are also good friendships among the various poetry societies. It’s rare for people to fight with each other, so when the Qingfeng Poetry Club sets its sights on you, other poetry clubs and sword alliances will generally not accept you at the risk of becoming their enemies. This is why I let you obtain Junior Sister Wu Qing. The reason for forgiveness is because if you don’t do this, I’m worried that your life in Xianmen will be very unsatisfactory!”
"Will they deal with me?"
Fang Yuan frowned and asked.
Lu Qinghe shook his head and said: "That's not true. Poetry clubs generally don't make enemies casually, let alone deliberately target anyone. However, after joining the poetry club, fellow disciples help each other, discuss cultivation, and skills. The Dharma sometimes even provides some private resources to help, which is very helpful for personal practice. If you don’t join them, you won’t be able to enjoy these... "
"Junior brother understands!"
When Fang Yuan heard this, he understood the general idea in his heart and laughed.
"That's good. If there is really any difficulty, junior brother can come and ask me in three months. Senior brother Guan Ao must be back by then!"
Lu Qinghe smiled and nodded. At this time, they had arrived in front of a house surrounded by ancient pines. Lu Qinghe said: "Junior brother Fang, you started late, so you can only live here first. If If you are not satisfied, come back to me for adjustment in the future!”
Fang Yuan took a look and saw several small buildings sitting on a hillside. Although they looked a little old and did not have as nice a view as the other houses, they looked very quiet. Several small buildings next to them were neatly arranged in front of the door. It was clean and planted with flowers and plants, but the one in the middle was a little shabby. It was obvious that Lu Qinghe was referring to this room, and he smiled and said: "That's very good, thank you senior brother!"
"When the preaching bell rings, there is an elder preaching. You can go to Xiaoqingxi to listen to the lecture. If you have any questions during practice, you can ask the deacon, or you can come and ask me or other classmates. The rest of the magic secrets, etc., then You can go to the Sutra Collection Hall to borrow it. Every month, the Immortal Sect will distribute a spiritual stone, which is your cultivation resource. If it is insufficient, you can also go to the Fuzhao Hall to receive tasks to earn it!"
Lu Qinghe explained it again and then left with a smile.
Fang Yuan also entered the room. Seeing that the room was very dusty and covered with cobwebs, he rolled up his sleeves, found a wooden bucket, washed it by the river, and then came back with a bucket of water to sweep and remove debris. After cleaning the grass, tiling the roof tiles, and cleaning up and down, the house looked clean and tidy. Fang Yuan spread out his bedding, took a bath, and put on the Xianmen robe he had just received. I suddenly felt brand new inside and out. Looking at the scenery outside the window, I felt a sense of fulfillment and satisfaction that I had never experienced before.
"From now on, am I a disciple of the Immortal Sect?"
He looked at the Xianmen robe he was wearing and liked it very much. He looked at it several times in front of the bronze mirror.
Now that he has finally fulfilled his wish and become an official disciple of the Immortal Sect, Fang Yuan feels relieved and encouraged. In order to obtain this chance of immortality, he did not hesitate to join the Immortal Sect as a handyman. It can be said that he has a firm heart in Taoism. It can also be said that He made a huge gamble for his own wish, but he won the bet after all. The deacons' respect and the immortal disciples' carefreeness were all seen in their eyes, which made him feel endless joy.
Although Wu Qing's appearance cast a shadow on the perfection of his life in the Immortal Sect, Fang Yuan didn't intend to take it to heart. When he entered the Immortal Sect, he just rushed to practice. Naturally, everything focused on cultivation. , Wu Qing, Qi Xiaofeng, they are just foreign objects. No matter what they do, as long as they don't hinder his own practice, otherwise, he will not endure it any longer!
After passing Zhou Qingyue's incident, he understood a truth...
"Of course I just wanted to practice well and didn't want to cause trouble, for fear of delaying my practice, so I hid whenever I could. But in the end, none of the things I encountered could be solved by hiding. On the contrary, it became worse It happened so dangerously that it almost ruined my cultivation path. I feel really chilling when I think about it. According to the theory in the book, this should be considered an external demon that affects my cultivation, right?"
"On the road to spiritual practice, there will be many obstacles. The laziness and fear in my heart are my inner demons, and those people and things that always want to harm me and deceive me for whatever reason are external demons. , can ruin my path of cultivation!"
"When it comes to people and things, there is no need to be too involved in cause and effect, but when it comes to external demons, hiding is useless. You have to kill them with a sword, which is the cleanest thing!"
