Chapter Eighty-Three: Apprenticeship
As the forest galloped upward, it stopped in less than a quarter of an hour at the foot of a mountain trail near the top of the mountain.
Jiang Xing asked, "Why didn't Brother Cheng leave?"
Cheng Forest smiled: "Brother Jiang doesn't know, and when he sees the ancestor, he can only walk through this stone road." ”
Jiang Xing followed what he said and looked up, and in front of the two of them, a road was one zhang wide, leading to the yellow stone steps at the top of the mountain.
I don't know what the material of the yellow stairs is, it looks like a pile of earth embryos, but it is extremely hard to step on it.
Cheng Lin looked at Jiang Xing and stopped to look at the yellow stone steps on the ground, and explained: "This road is cultivated by the ancestor when he has nothing to do, and it is called Xuanhuangdao. As a sign of respect, anyone who goes to the top of the mountain walks on foot. ”
Jiang Xing smiled slightly: "I didn't expect that the ancestor still had this Yaxing." ”
Cheng Linlin also smiled: "One person, one character." ”
The two chatted and walked up the yellow stone steps that led to the top of the mountain.
If Jiang Xing goes to the top of the mountain, he will be surprised, the top of the Fufengsi Mountain, which is dozens of zhang wide, is actually a big platform, and there are many trees on the platform that are two people hugging each other and are more than ten zhang high.
There is an open space on the right side of the platform, two bluestone carved claws stand there, the claws are about a zhang wide, although they are carved, they can still peep at their sharpness, majestic, the claws together with the legs can be about ten zhang up, and then up is the whole picture of the huge, winged phoenix.
Looking at it below, it almost gives a sense of oppression that suppresses breathing.
And the yellow stone steps went straight up, facing a large fence enclosing a place more than ten acres in size.
The trees on the platform tightly surround the fence yard of more than ten acres, there is a small thatched house in the fence yard, there is a two-person hug in front of the thatched house, the weeping willow of more than ten zhang high flutters in the wind, a pond under the willow tree, the pond is about half an acre in size, it is indigo, and it is crystal clear.
Under the tree, on the edge of the pond sat an old man, fishing with a fishing rod in his hand.
Next to him stood respectfully the master of the forest, who was leaving the fire, and he was saying something to the old man.
That old man who fished was none other than the ancestor of the Fengsi Division, Mo Ancestor.
The man was about 100 years old, his eyebrows and hair were white, his beard was snow-white and hung down on his chest, he was dressed in an ordinary plain white robe, and his feet were wearing the cloth shoes sold in the market, and he looked intently at the pond, as if he were listening intently to the narration of the man on the fire, and did not move.
However, it is this ordinary old man, if you get closer, you can find that when he is not moving, he actually gives people a deep feeling of being in the boundless sea. People dare not underestimate it at all.
As if the man on the fire had finished speaking, Mo Laozu picked it up, took back the fishing rod, looked at the empty hook that had been eaten by the fish, and smiled: "Hehe, what a cunning fish." Then he put the fishing rod aside, and changed his words: "Lihuo, are you sure it's the Ice Spirit Root?"
The person who left the fire hurriedly bowed down and replied, "I have confirmed that it is correct twice, it is true that the Ice Spirit Root!"
Old Ancestor Mo stroked his snow-white beard: "Leave the fire, it's time for the old man to accept a disciple, right?"
"What does Ancestor mean?" The man from the fire wondered.
Old Ancestor Mo smiled but did not answer, and nodded lightly.
"The ancestor seems to be a water-attribute spiritual root, which is similar to the ice spiritual root, and it is not an exaggeration to say that the ice spiritual root is a mutation because of the foundation of the water-attribute spiritual root, so it is the new disciple who has a great opportunity to come. "The man on the fire suddenly realized.
"Yes, that's exactly what I mean, I serve Feng Si since ancient times, and I still have to cultivate him well, but I heard what you said that he has already built a foundation and cultivated?"
"Yes, he is indeed a foundation builder, does the ancestor mean to find out his details?"
Old Ancestor Mo waved his hand: "No need, presumably no sect will give up the disciples of the alien spirit root, you go to him and come over, I want to talk to him." ”
Lihuo responded yes, and happened to see Jiang Xing standing at the gate of the fence garden, Cheng Forest and the two, so he replied: "It is a strange spirit root, and I have long wanted him to come to meet the ancestor, so that I can let which senior brother take over the cultivation, it just so happens that the ancestor also has an idea, which saves a lot of trouble, he is already outside, I let him in, so I will retreat first." ”
Old Ancestor Mo nodded lightly again.
The man from the fire saluted respectfully to the old man and walked towards the gate of the fence garden.
The entire fence garden is as high as a person's waist, and a high stride can be crossed, but since the day this fence was erected, none of the people who came up dared to step over, and they all stood at the door respectfully, and only dared to enter until Mo Laozu allowed it.
Jiang Xing and Cheng Lin stood at the waist-high door of the fence garden, looking at the people who left the fire who came over, and the people from the fire bent down slightly to open the fence door and looked at Jiang Xing.
Jiang Xing, Cheng Lin hurriedly saluted the people who left the fire.
The man from the fire waved his hand and signaled that he did not need to carry his luggage: "No need, Jiang ...... Jiang Xing, right? You go inside, Mo Ancestor, I want to see you. ”
Jiang Xing was a little stunned, but he still answered yes and stepped into the fence garden.
The ground in the fence garden is not the kind of big blue stone slabs, but all yellow soft sand-like things, which are unusually soft when stepped on, and this is the case everywhere the fence garden can be seen.
Outside the fence garden, the people on the fire beckoned Cheng Lin to go down the mountain, and Cheng Lin pointed at Jiang Xing and said suspiciously: "Master, what about Jiang Xing?"
The man from the fire smiled mysteriously and pulled a long tone: "He, he has his great opportunity." ”
Cheng Lin asked what the big opportunity was, and the side left the top of the Fengsi Mountain with the people who left the fire.
Jiang Xing glanced back, and saw that the two masters and apprentices of the forest at the gate of the fence garden had disappeared at this time, and they didn't know what medicine was sold in the gourd of the two of them, and they approached Mo Laozu after a while.
Jiang walked close and bowed: "Meet Old Ancestor Mo." ”
Mo Laozu looked at Jiang Xing gently: "Your name is Jiang Xing?"
Jiang Xing straightened up and looked at the kind face in front of him, like an old grandfather looking at his grandson kindly. From the bottom of my heart, I felt that Old Ancestor Mo was peaceful and approachable, and most of the nervousness in my heart disappeared.
replied: "Exactly, the kid is Jiang Xing." ”
"Okay, when I said that you are a natural ice attribute alien spirit root, how do you feel about this?" Old Ancestor Mo stared at Jiang Xing's face carefully, as if he wanted to read something from the expression on his face.
Jiang Xing was stunned, since he stepped into the immortal cultivation realm, plus when he came to Cheng Lin on the road and told him about the alien spirit root, he also knew a lot in his heart, but he didn't know what Mo Lao Zu was thinking about asking about this matter.
Although he had doubts in his heart, he replied in a real way: "I heard that the world's alien spirit root's perception and cultivation should be far beyond ordinary people, and the absorption of worldly spiritual power is much faster than ordinary people, so I am naturally very happy that I can advance my cultivation at a faster speed." ”
Elder Mo looked at his face and smiled: "You're right, it's not all right, as far as your ice spirit root is concerned, first of all, your perception ability is similar to that of ordinary people, so your cultivation will not improve by leaps and bounds as you imagined, and secondly, the alien spirit root is just one of the five basic spirit roots, so it is also more difficult to comprehend than the five corresponding attributes, so you have to treat your opportunity seriously." ”
Old Ancestor Mo's words were like a basin of cold water poured on Jiang Xing's head, he thought that the situation would be very good, but he didn't expect that this would be the case.
Jiang Xing thought of his extremely skilled fireball technique, and couldn't help asking, "Ancestor, according to the test, since I am an ice spirit root, why can I still condense the fireball technique?"
Mo Lao Zu looked like a fairy wind dao bone like an old Dao Dao, and chuckled: "The magic of any attribute of the cultivators in the world can perceive the condensation, but it is just the most suitable and able to perform, just like a fireball technique that you condense, with your current cultivation of the fireball technique that is half a zhang large, it will take about three breaths, and in the future, the cultivation will be higher The amount of the condensation technique you have condensed will be longer, on the other hand, the kind of person who is the fire spiritual power will only be able to understand the mystery in the blink of an eye." ”
Mo Laozu's words made Jiang Xingmao pause, and before Jiang Xing could speak, Mo Laozu should feel that it was not appropriate to blindly hit Jiang Xing, and said again: "Hehe, don't feel discouraged, the alien spirit root has its own power, and the five attribute spells are all mutually reinforcing, so most people will comprehend the spells outside the five attribute spells, but since you are the alien spirit root, you are one step ahead of others, cherish it and understand it well, and your talent will naturally wish you rapid growth and advancement." ”
A basin of cold water just now, and now a quilt to warm up, after Mo Laozu's puzzle, Jiang Xing is not distressed: "It seems that I should learn more ice attribute spells in the future." ”
Elder Mo nodded: "That's not the case, I plan to let you go from water to ice, step by step, although the progress is a little slower, but fortunately, you are steady, and the means of fighting with others are weak." ”
Jiang Xing said blankly: "You...... Are you going to do so?"
Mo Lao Zu reacted and laughed as if he was angry: "It seems that Lihuo hasn't told you yet, I plan to take you as a disciple and personally guide your cultivation, are you willing?"
The ancestor of the Fengsi accepted himself as an apprentice, Jiang Xing was naturally overjoyed, and bowed his head: "Apprentice Jiang Xing to meet the master!"
Bang! Bang!
Three sturdy ringing heads.
Mo Laozu couldn't open his eyes with a smile, stretched out his hand and gently helped Jiang Xing up, and then turned his hand, and a palm-sized quaint boat appeared in the palm of his hand.
"This boat is called "Cloud Piercing Boat", which is a treasure of my early years, and now it is given to you. ”
Jiang Xing waved his hand again and again: "I can't stand the master's baby." ”
Mo Lao Zu said in an unquestionable tone: "The treasure of the early years is no longer needed now, you use it best, if you drive this boat with all your strength, it can be more than twice as fast as your usual sword, whether you are escaping or rushing, it is a good magic weapon, take it." ”
Jiang Xing was helpless and took it cheekily.
Mo Laozu said: "My nature is indifferent, so I won't do the apprenticeship ceremony, just send the same text in the department, this "Qin Si Decision" superior water system exercises you can take to practice first, by the way, there is one more thing you do first." Mo Lao Zu flipped his hand again, and a scroll of jade appeared in his hand.
Jiang Xingzhengzhong took the jade slip: "What's the matter?"
"You go to the "Tuwen Pavilion" of the Fengsi to read all the books, and after reading, the teacher will have his own assessment, do you understand?"
Jiang Xing hurriedly luggage: "Obey!"
