The dark clouds in the middle of the night covered the moonlight and Li Xiuzhu's bright eyes.

Of course, even if Li Xiuzhu's gaze lost its color, Lu Tao couldn't see it, he was just thinking about a problem.

When is this guy going to sleep?

Only half of the moon had already risen to mid-air, and began to set far away to the other side, it was already late at night, and even the insects that had been hiding in the cracks in the corners of the wall for half a night had stopped, and the old house where Li Xiuzhu was alone was very quiet.

Lu Tao could feel that Li Xiuzhu was already very sleepy, he just didn't want to go to sleep, however, Lu Tao, who was missing a memory, really couldn't know why Li Xiuzhu did this, if this was a game, Lu Tao would definitely give it a big bad review!

In the end, Li Xiuzhu took out the purse left by Wang Yuyan from his pocket, stared at the purse for more than ten minutes, and finally returned to the previous room and slept quietly.

By the way, the bed with only a thin layer of cups is really hard.

......

Early the next morning, yesterday's old man came to this old house again without knowing what to do, Li Xiuzhu got up early—or was woken up by the cold of the morning, and then washed his face with the cold well water that was even cooler after the night, and dressed neatly.

"Let's go, let's go up the mountain!"

The old man still looked at Li Xiuzhu with gentle eyes, Li Xiuzhu nodded and followed behind the old man.

The morning fog seemed to be thicker than the day before, and almost all the buildings halfway up the mountain were shrouded in those cloud-like fogs, and the monks who shuttled between this mountain road and the surrounding buildings were obviously invisible from a few meters apart in the dense fog, but they still stood by the road early, bowing to the old man in front of Li Xiuzhu.

Continuing to go up the stone steps from the halfway point of the mountain, less than halfway through, the surrounding clouds and mist suddenly dispersed, Li Xiuzhu looked back, and Lu Tao's eyes also looked at the sea of clouds below.

The sea of clouds that constantly swings is like a wall dividing the mountain into two parts, and the sea of clouds that cannot be seen at a glance is dyed golden by the nascent morning sun, and I wonder if there will be a big ship with the same gold splitting the wind and waves above the sea of clouds.

"There, is the main peak of the Kunlun Sect. ”

Some old voices came, attracting Li Xiuzhu's attention, and following the direction of the old man's finger, Li Xiuzhu looked up and widened his eyes for the first time.

Under the blue sky, there is a mountain floating in the air, the huge peak giving people a feeling of oppression, and the shadows cast a long imprint on the golden sea. At the same time, around the huge mountain peaks, there are several small islands of the same ups and downs, and the sharp-eyed Lu Tao also saw a lot of large or small buildings on those small islands.

Between the islands and the peaks, and even between the islands, there are many figures as thin as mosquitoes and flies riding various flying swords back and forth between them, and the location of Li Xiuzhu and the old man is far from the top of the mountain at his feet, not to mention these floating islands that float farther away in mid-air.

Lu Tao's first thought was that the legendary floating islands of the Kunlun faction were real, and Meredith said in the Valley of the God of Medicine that these floating islands would only land once in ten years, and he didn't elaborate on other details, I don't know if this floating island with the appearance of a huge mountain peak can move in mid-air at will? If so, isn't it a huge aircraft carrier?

Sure enough, Kunlun was not only one of the six major sects in Lu Tao's era, but also probably one of the most powerful sects in Li Xiuzhu's era.

I just don't know, how did the Kunlun faction make such a big mountain float, this is already a miracle that Lu Tao can't touch, oh yes, Lu Tao remembers that those Western gods seem to be half-tuned.

After the old man finished speaking, he continued to walk up, and Li Xiuzhu was only amazed by the floating island above his head and returned to his previous calm appearance, following the old man step by step.

Lacking the obstruction of clouds and mist, the vision is clear, and the mountain has become a little flat, Lu Tao saw more colors through Li Xiuzhu's eyes, which are all kinds of buildings built on the side of the mountain, connected by stone steps up and down in the middle, or separated by a wall, stacked together, and there are cliffs on the side of the peak, strange rocks are craggy, and strangely shaped pine trees poke their heads out from under the cliffs, contrasting with each other.

But the most spectacular thing is the rope bridge that stretches between the cliffs, hanging diagonally on the edge of the cliff, one side above the sea of clouds, and the other side under the sea of clouds, not knowing where the final destination is.

There is not only one such rope bridge, at least under Lu Tao's observation, there are three rope bridges connecting different directions standing on the edge of the cliff, and there are also monks with flying swords passing through the higher sky.

The old man did not take care of the rope bridges, but took Li Xiuzhu to a building standing on the edge of the cliff with only one floor.

There were two monks standing at the door, and when they saw the old man in front of Li Xiuzhu, they bent down and bowed from a distance: "Hello elder!"

The old man nodded, took Li Xiuzhu and pushed the door straight open, and came to the building.

There was nothing superfluous in the building, except that on the wall facing the door, there was a portrait of a girl dressed in purple, and the girl in the portrait was just standing there, looking calmly in the direction of the door.

Lu Tao was stunned, why does this painting look a little familiar?

However, Lu Tao can be sure that he has never seen this painting, the painter's skills are superb, the purple-clothed girl in the picture seems to be alive, her eyes are clear, just looking at the girl in the painting, there is a feeling that the whole person is going to be sucked in.

"Xiuzhu, kneel here. The old man spoke again, less cordial and more solemn in his tone. This voice made Lu Tao break free from the state of being attracted by the girl's gaze on the picture, and the gaze that seemed to have some kind of magic power made Lu Tao feel a little palpitating.

Li Xiuzhu knelt on the futon in front of him according to his words, facing the painting hanging on the wall, the old man stood on one side and said: "Kunlun Sect Beifeng Elder Chi Leizi, today, under the witness of the patriarch, accept Li Xiuzhu as an apprentice, Xiuzhu, are you willing to become my disciple?"

Li Xiuzhu nodded: "I am willing, Master." ”

"Very good!" Chi Leizi nodded, with some relief in his expression: "Then, in the future, your Dao number will be Qingzhu." ”

"Yes! ”

Li Xiuzhu, or the young man who should be called Qingzhu now, kowtowed three times to the portrait in front of him at the signal of Chi Leizi, and the ceremony of accepting apprentices was over, but it was much simpler than Lu Tao imagined.

Lu Tao finally followed Li Xiuzhu's gaze and glanced at the purple-clothed girl on the picture, she was actually the patriarch who founded the Kunlun School? But why is there only such a portrait?

The girl in the portrait is still looking at the person in front of her with a calm gaze, as if it will continue like this for eternity.

Following Master Chi Leizi, Li Xiuzhu left the "ancestral hall" with only one portrait, Chi Leizi took Li Xiuzhu and came to another building with "Political Affairs Hall" written on it, but Chi Leizi did not step directly into the building.

"Qingzhu, in our Kunlun Sect, all new disciples must sit up step by step from the lowest disciple, from today onwards, you will be a miscellaneous disciple of the North Peak of the Kunlun Sect, and when you become an outer disciple, that is, when we meet again, take this sign and go in." ”

Lu Tao: "???"

Wait a minute! Can it be like this? Just took in the apprentice and left it alone?

In fact, it can indeed be so, and Lu Tao, as the "spirit behind the scenes", can't do anything. Listening to Chi Leizi's words, Li Xiuzhu's expression did not change in the slightest, he just nodded yes, and then entered the political hall without looking back. In his hand, he held a black token given to him by Chi Lei Zi, on which were written the three words "Red Lei Zi".
