The words say:

The Yangtze River flows eastward for eternity, and it is leisurely. How many tide figures swim in the water.

The heavens and the earth turn, the times change, and everything rests. Which building is the wind full of mountain rain today?

- Proposed "Cry in the Night".

At that time, Gongsun Fu made it clear: what he needs now is strength, not evidence, and Mu Ansheng nodded straight at the ear.

Mu Ansheng said: "Master, you are right, they are all preparing to do it, and it is really unnecessary for you to pay attention to any evidence at this time." It's a pity that my strength is too poor to solve problems for the master. ”

Gongsun Fu said: "Ansheng, you don't have to worry about this, just do what I ask." They want my life, I can't give it in vain, at least I have to fight them all out - you don't want to show the mountain in everything, in the future, in case I die with them, then the Zixu Immortal Sword Sect will be presided over by you, and you must keep the Dao system founded by the ancestors of my Gongsun family. ”

When Mu Ansheng heard this, he was very moved: "Master, your expectations for me are so high, the disciple must work hard!"

"Hmm. An Sheng, you are my eldest disciple, and you know all my thoughts. You are different from your junior disciples, although they are also my disciples, but I just want them to be your right-hand men in the future.

Also, their cultivation realm is not as good as yours, and when I teach them as a teacher, I still have some reservations, so that they will not surpass you.

I can't follow the old path of my ancestors, just like your Tai Shi Zu, who cultivated Niu De and Governor Yong to be more powerful than your ancestors, but as a result, Niu De and Governor Yong instead took the lead and caused your master to die in their hands! Our dignified Void Immortal Sword Sect has become the private property of his two families to fight for, and I, as a descendant of the Gongsun family, have been suppressed so much that I can't raise my head!"

The situation that Gongsun Fu said, Mu Ansheng also knew the general outline. Mu Ansheng was naturally angry and angry at the master, and was about to say something, but Gongsun Fu said something again.

This time, it's about the reason why he left Zixu Mountain and hid here.

It turned out that Gongsun Fu had completely stopped participating in the "Nine Floors" exercises, but was going all out to participate in the sleeping exercises, striving to surpass the ninth order of the true path and go further.

However, after cultivating the Sleep Skill, after entering the depths of meditation, he reacted slowly to external intrusions and had a very poor ability to resist, so he did not dare to stay in the Xianyun Intermediate Courtyard, for fear that he would be killed by Niu De or Governor Yong and the two groups after he entered the meditation in depth.

In desperation, Gongsun Fu hid in this place that no one knew.

When Mu An heard this, he felt even more angry.

Gongsun Fu comforted: "Ansheng, you don't have to be angry. My Gongsun family was wiped out, and I naturally had to repay them! I can't destroy the Niu family and the Shi family, but the state family, haha......"

Speaking of this, Gongsun Fu laughed.

Mu Ansheng listened to Gongsun Fu's laughter, and was shocked in his heart: Could it be that the Mirage Zhou family was destroyed, was it the master's hand? If so, then the master's action was too cruel, and of course, the destruction of the master's entire clan was also very miserable......

Mu Ansheng was thoughtful, and his face couldn't help but show something, Gongsun Fu's eyes were sharp, and when he glanced at Mu Ansheng's expression, he felt that there were some things that were not suitable to say to Mu Ansheng for the time being.

So Gongsun Fu followed after "haha":

"Haha, the wicked have their own wicked grinding! Before my Gongsun Fu could make a move, someone killed his governor Yongquan clan first! Haha. ”

When Mu Ansheng heard what Master said next, he was relieved in his heart: Sure enough, it wasn't Master's hand, where could my Master be so cruel?

Gongsun Fu knew it, but said in his mouth: "An Sheng, you came today to do nothing more than about Ah Sheng." Let me tell you, you still have to pretend that it is not your business to do anything about Ah Sheng.

I guess it should be that they killed Ah Sheng! It's either Niu De's gang or Governor Yong's gang, this hatred, let's remember it first, and slowly look for opportunities. Anyway, it's going to be soon, and when the time comes, the new accounts and the old accounts will be counted together!"

Mu Ansheng listened, and even claimed "yes". Gongsun Fu said: "Okay, you go back first." Jing Yangsheng and Li Fengsheng, you have to find a chance to appease you.

and Zhao Liqian, he came to my door, later than Zhang Asheng, you have to mention him more, after all, he is also a person by your side, and he has been in your lower courtyard.

But there is one thing, he is different from a few of you, you have all worshiped under my door since childhood, and you all listen to me, but Zhao Liqian is already an adult, and he has not been under my door for a long time, so you can't let him out of your palm; ”

Gongsun Fu said a word, and Mu Ansheng said "yes".

Don't look at Mu Ansheng in the eyes of the disciples of the lower courtyard, he is shrewd and capable, but when he comes to Gongsun Fu, he becomes like an echo worm, and his thinking ability is suddenly gone.

It wasn't until Gongsun Fu asked Mu Ansheng to go back that Mu Ansheng was only the only one, turned around, rose with his sword, and flew back to Zixu Mountain.

After Mu Ansheng left, Gongsun Fu sat alone in the cave, not cultivating for a while, but thinking about Zhang Asheng's affairs.

It stands to reason that Zhang Asheng should not have disappeared in Zixu Mountain, after all, he was on Zixu Mountain. However, there is a department within the faction, and the infighting continues, Zhang Asheng, this young genius, is obviously affected by his own master.

Gongsun Fu felt that he couldn't stand Zhang Asheng, but what could he do if he couldn't help it? After all, Zhang Asheng, as his own disciple, had also considered him when he chose him.

Thinking of this, Gongsun Fu shook his head, sighed softly, and didn't know what he remembered, his face was cloudy, and after a while, he sighed again, and then cultivated again.

However, it was said that Mu Ansheng returned to Zixu Mountain and took a day to patrol the mountain by himself, and after the arrangement was completed, he went to the Xianyun Intermediate Courtyard.

When he arrived at Xianyun Intermediate Courtyard, after meeting Jing Yangsheng and Li Fengsheng, he talked about Zhang Asheng's disappearance, and Mu Ansheng comforted:

"Two junior brothers, although you are doing the sprinkler and sweeping work here, you are still the children of my lower courtyard after all. Zhang Asheng's disappearance, you are not at fault, so you just have to rest assured that you can cultivate, and after Uncle Gongsun of Xianyun Intermediate Court comes back, if there is any responsibility, I will defend you. ”

Mu Ansheng's words did not reveal that he and Gongsun Fu were masters and apprentices, and the relationship between him and these two was that of brothers and sisters.

In Jing Yangsheng and Li Fengsheng's ears, it is also very good for Senior Brother Mu to talk like this, after all, since Zhang Asheng disappeared, no one has comforted the two of them-

Jing Yangsheng and Li Fengsheng still didn't know at this time that Mu Ansheng in front of them was actually their real senior brother, and everyone was Gongsun Fu's apprentice.

Mu Ansheng comforted the two of them a few more words, and then went up to the small stone flat in the back mountain of Xianyun Intermediate Courtyard.

Mu Ansheng went to the small stone ping, looked left and right, pondered and meditated, but after all, he still couldn't find anything, after all, he could only identify:

On the side of Niu De and Niu Bijun, on the side of Governor Yong and Shi Zhen, they all accelerated their pace and wanted to do something to each other, of course, including to their own master!

Obviously, they couldn't find the master, so they would inevitably attack Ah Sheng's junior brother first! After all, the master would not fall to either of them-

When he thought of this, Mu Ansheng's heart moved: "Ouch! I'm afraid that before they make a move on each other, the one they want to kill the most is my master! Because if they don't kill my master, my master will become the biggest uncertain factor affecting the outcome of their battle!"

Thinking of this, Mu Ansheng felt that the situation was even more severe!

At this time, Mu Ansheng felt that he was really too good, although he worked hard to win the position of the deputy head of the lower court, but his strength was too low, and the cultivation of the first level of the true path, in the eyes of these bigwigs of this faction, was like a child, and it was not enough to see it at all!

Alas, it is still the best policy to be able to improve one's cultivation realm! However, ......

However, Gongsun Fu once told Mu Ansheng about his arrangement-

In Gongsun Fu's arrangement, it was to make Mu An's biology and cultivate an excellent little junior disciple! Gongsun Fu's intention was to let that little junior brother's cultivation far surpass that of ordinary people, and to escort Mu Ansheng to take over as the head of his own faction.

Mu Ansheng raised his own worries about this: What if this little junior brother has the ability and doesn't listen to his words as a senior brother, and even makes himself a senior brother?

Of course, the master also explained that the little junior disciple selected must not only have cultivation talent, but also have the kindness of gold.

Now it seems that Zhang Asheng is the little junior brother who the master finally selected the most suitable for this requirement, but unfortunately he is missing now!

Looking at the mountain and running a dead horse, expecting others to be fake, or only you are the most reliable for yourself, but if you want to be able to rely on yourself, you have to have enough ability!

Speaking of which, in terms of mind, Mu Ansheng is indeed qualified to be the head of the Zixu Immortal Sword Sect, but in terms of cultivation realm and actual combat power, Mu Ansheng is not qualified.

Recalling the confession made by Master Gongsun Fu, Mu Ansheng knew that it was difficult for him to settle down and cultivate, after all, Mu Ansheng had to look at the whole sect and gain insight into all parties. The awl can only be fast, and Mu Ansheng can do what Gongsun Fu requires, of course, it takes a lot of energy and time.

It takes a lot of energy, which is nothing to Mu Ansheng, an immortal cultivator; what is terrible is that it takes a lot of time, just a little time a day, and if you do this thing, you can't do that thing at the same time. What's more, Mu Ansheng's qualifications are not far beyond ordinary people, so in terms of cultivation, it is inevitable that he will be affected!

Fortunately, while Mu Ansheng practiced the "Nine Floors" exercises, he also practiced the "Sleeping Skills", so his cultivation realm did not fall.

The master has the master's reasoning, and Mu Ansheng always believes that Gongsun Fu's arrangements are reasonable.

Speaking of which, I have to add that Mu Ansheng's "sleeping skills" were of course taught by Gongsun Fu, and Gongsun Fu's "sleeping skills" were also taught to Zhang Asheng. In other words, this sleeping skill is actually the "Natural Phaseless Turtle Breath Dafa".

At this time, Zhang Asheng, in the dark cave stone room, was practicing the "Natural Phaseless Dafa", and had already entered a state of deep cultivation.

The changes in the outside world are unknown to Zhang Asheng.

Gongsun Fu has never returned to Zixu Mountain, and the years of cultivation in the mountains of the Zixu Immortal Sword Sect have been flowing in the river of time.

Niu De and Niu Bijun were a little impatient! Because Gongsun Fu never came back, it meant that their actions could not be carried out, because if they did not eliminate the variable of Gongsun Fu, they would not dare to launch a fatal blow to Governor Yong and Shi Zhen!

Governor Yong and Shi Zhen are also a little impatient, the reason for their impatience is the same as the former, they also want to eliminate Gongsun Fu, a big variable that may affect the final result, before launching a thunderous blow against Erniu.

However, four full years have passed since Zhang Asheng disappeared, but Gongsun Fu has not returned to the mountain!

The two Niu side and the Shi side already feel that they are almost ready, but they don't want to do it first, they are afraid that Gongsun Fu will get the benefit of the fisherman!

The disciples of the Zixu Immortal Sword Sect have already been divided into two major factions, even the ordinary sprinkler boys in the lower courtyard of the mountain gate have already chosen a side and stood in line!

Of course, the ordinary sprinkler boys in the lower courtyard, including the elite disciples of the acquired martial arts in the lower courtyard, are divided into three factions in the lower courtyard:

Those who are inclined to the head of the family and the four elders call themselves "cattle faction";

Those who fall to the side of the Great Elder and the Third Elder call themselves "Shi Pai";

In addition to the Niu and Shi factions, there is also a neutral faction - in fact, this neutral faction, who does not understand the details inside, is really neutral, and those who understand the details inside are actually acting at the behest of Mu Ansheng.
