Xiao Ran was almost frightened by the old man who got close.

Fortunately, he resonated with the heart method to protect himself, and he quickly stabilized his mind.

I found that the reason why this old man came so close may be just a simple ......

Myopia.

Next, the old man asked Xiao Ran's question coldly:

Who are you?

Xiao Ran thought to himself, shouldn't I ask this sentence?

I, a young face, appeared in the elders' conference room, who else could it be besides being a new disciple of the sword elder?

The spring frog and autumn cicada were also frightened by the old man, the distance was too close, so they had to raise their short and thick necks, look up exaggeratedly, and take a fixed look.

"Ink, Uncle Inkbox is so ......"

The two girls were also very curious.

The refining elder ink box is a real person, who lives in the Sword Casting Peak all the year round, sharpens a sword for ten years, rarely goes out, and only symbolically pops up when the elders meeting is held, but he has not expressed any opinions at the meeting for decades.

Why did he suddenly run to Xiao Ran and ask who he was?

Spring Frog didn't think much about it, and immediately introduced the old man to Xiao Ran:

"This is the sword-forging elder of this sect, the real person of the ink box. ”

Xiao Ran had heard the introduction of the two girls before, and thought that this old man had sharpened his sword for ten years, no wonder he would become short-sighted.

Qiu Cicada introduced Xiao Ran to the old man and said:

"This is the personal disciple that Uncle Lingzhou just received—"

Before the name was announced, the old man rudely interrupted the introduction.

"I'm not asking who you are now, I'm asking who you used to be. ”

I used to be a great socialist successor!

Does this have a dime to do with you?

Xiao Ran asked:

"Why does Uncle Shi ask that?"

The old man put his hands behind his back, and a pair of deep and dark old eyes stared at Xiao Ran.

"Because you seem to have a problem with the sword fence......"

All of this is seen?

Could it be that the sword fence is your masterpiece?

Xiao Ran doesn't know much about the spirit pattern, but its construction level is quite high!

Unexpectedly, the swordsmith was still an expert in architecture.

Xiao Ran was busy learning and selling, explaining:

"Just like the clerk of the steamed bun shop who doesn't know anything about painting, in the face of the pinnacle of famous paintings, he can only say that it looks good or not, and the master doesn't have to care about the humble opinion of his disciples. ”

A masterpiece at the pinnacle?

The old man stroked his beard, and these four sword fences were indeed his pinnacle works.

But this new disciple seems to have some opinion about it.

"It is said that you have reached the peak, but what you see from your eyes is not the peak, but the flaws. ”

Xiao Ran felt very strange.

The old man could see that he had some insight into some of the details of the sword fence.

But the old man didn't see a mortal disciple like others, and he would be curious to observe his divine sense.

From the beginning, he didn't look at Xiao Ran with his divine sense.

It seems that in his eyes, cultivation is just a trivial matter, and the sword elder must have special considerations in selecting materials.

The old man's seemingly questioning tone, but in his deep and dark eyes, there seemed to be a faint suppressive look.

Xiao Ran arched his hand and said:

"It's the disciple who is abrupt. ”

The old man smiled and shook his head.

"No one can stand abruptly in front of the Heaven Protector Sword Fence without being hurt by its will to protect the sky. ”

Xiao Ran was speechless.

At this moment, a neutral voice came from outside the door:

"Everyone is here, let's get started. ”

The old man was a little regretful, and said:

"Perhaps...... Sometime after the elders' meeting, Master Xiao's nephew could come to Forge Sword Peak to sit, and the old man would treat each other with tea. ”

After finishing speaking, Xiao Ran was left with a slight doubt.

Treat each other with tea?

Are the elders of this sect so amiable?

Not far away.

Ling Zhouyue beckoned Xiao Ran to take the seat.

Near the beginning of the meeting, she saw what had just happened.

She didn't expect that the stuffy gourd of the real person in the ink box would actually take the initiative to talk to her......

If something goes wrong, there must be a demon!

Ling Zhouyue's sword frowned slightly, and found that things were not simple.

Could it be that this old puppet also has a crush on my precious apprentice?

First come, first come, don't you understand the truth that famous flowers have masters!

When she met Xiao Ran, she asked vigilantly:

"What did this old man tell you?"

Xiao Ran replied truthfully:

"Uncle Inkbox wants his disciples to have time to sit on Sword Casting Peak, and he will definitely wait for tea. ”

Tea-making?

Ling Zhouyue coughed dryly, leaned into Xiao Ran's ear, and said softly:

"This old man has been sharpening his sword for ten years, how can he have the kung fu to study the tea ceremony, it must be a trap, you don't want to go. ”

Xiao Ran didn't plan to go, but deliberately pretended to listen to his master.

"Obey the Master's instructions. ”

Xiao Ran's respect for teachers and filial piety made Ling Zhouyue inexplicably feel a sense of distance, and there was an illusion that he might lose him at any time.

So he pulled Xiao Ran closer, raised his arm around Xiao Ran's shoulder, and said with a smile:

"Don't be so polite, I'm very approachable, not to mention that everyone is young, there is no need to be too restrained, unlike getting along with older people, it is easy to have a generation gap. ”

The real person of the silver moon behind him:

“......”

Generation gap?

Xiao Ran only felt that his elbows were weak, as if he had hit something, and he looked down at the side of his face.

Well, the generation gap is not ...... But there's a deeper ditch here.

......

Main Church.

Five long cases of Aoki embroidered with red stripes are arranged in a five-cornered position.

It is the seat of the head and the four elders.

The disciples of each family stood behind the long case of each master to observe.

Except for the head seat in the north seat, the other four seats are all casual seats.

Ling Zhouyue's strength is the head of the four elders, but he sits in the southeast position at the bottom, and gives up the northeast position at the top to Yinyue Zhenren.

Xiao Ran stood behind her side, full of Naiko...... The mind is full of generation gaps.

He felt remorseful.

But there is no way, he is just a mortal, and he can't rely on cultivation to suppress the unclean thoughts brought by hormones.

Only divert attention.

So he looked around.

The Sword Casting Elder Ink Box who had accosted him just now was sitting in the northwest position.

Theoretically, this is a more honorable position than the other three elder positions.

It also matches his identity.

According to the introduction of the spring frog and autumn cicada, Zongzhi Mountain is located at the end of the fire vein, and the water source on the surface is very abundant, so it is good at forging refining weapons since ancient times, especially for forging swords.

The swords and flying swords produced by Zongzhishan are all sold well in the True Spirit Continent, which is the main reason why Zongzhishan can stand tall in the end of the Dharma era.

Among them, the Sword Casting Elder Ink Box Zhenren has made great contributions, and it can be said that he is the mainstay of Zongzhi Mountain, and it is convincing to sit in this position.

Behind the real person in the inkbox.

His personal disciple is a tall and thin young man, who uses an iron ring to seal his eyes and ears, which is quite a bit of ancient martial arts science fiction.

A famous teacher produces a high apprentice, but this person's name is Gao Shi, and it is said that he may come out of the blue in the future, which is the future of Zongzhi Mountain.

It is said that he was a talented sword sharpener, but his mind was not strong, greedy for money and lustful, and he was forced to wear a sealing ring by the real person of the ink box.

When Xiao Ran looked at him, he was also looking at Xiao Ran, and the blue light flashed on the Sensen iron ring, which made people shudder.

Xiao Ran hurriedly withdrew his gaze.

Southwest position.

Sitting is the great villain in the mouth of the spring frog and autumn cicada, the precept elder-

Huangfu group.

This is a middle-aged man who is not smiling, with a restrained and fierce face, with facial features like carvings, but there is no sense of handsomeness, only feeling eerie and terrifying.

The disciple behind him is a fat man with the same straight face.

is named Luo Sheng, according to the two daughters, his real name is Huangfu Luo Sheng, he is the son of Huangfu Qun, he has average talent, and he relies on resources and penance to reach the standard of a personal disciple.

This is almost an open secret in Mt. Sochi.

The father and son kept their eyes closed and did not look at the rest of the people.

At last.

Xiao Ran looked to the north.

The head did not come.

Next to him, there stood a neutral-looking white-clothed monk, who was the one who had notified the convening of the Council of Elders, Ji Yunzi.

Xiao Ran felt a powerful aura on Ji Yunzi's body.

Spring Frog and Autumn Cicada said that Ji Yunzi was the strongest person in the sect except for the head of the sect and Ling Zhouyue, and he was even stronger than the other four elders.

I didn't see the master, and the precept elder Huangfu Qun asked directly:

"What about the senior brother in charge? ”

Jiyunzi explained:

"Because the Netherworld suddenly broke into the mountain protection array, causing the old illness of the master to recur, it was just decided that the disciple would preside over it on his behalf. ”

"You?"

Huangfu Qun's face was gloomy and full of suspicion.

Xiao Ran could understand why the Discipline Elder was so arrogant, even the head of the sect did not let go of it.

With the advent of the end of the Dharma era, the cultivation realm suffered heavy losses, and in order to work together to resist the Netherworld, all the sects of the True Spirit Continent jointly formed the Dao Alliance.

The Dao Alliance pays attention to the law, and will parachute a precept elder to each sect.

The duty of the precept elders is to supervise and adjudicate all illegal things in the door, and even the head of the door cannot do whatever he wants.

However, for an independent faction like Zongzhishan, the power of the Dao Alliance has penetrated a lot, and its precept elders are still assigned by the sect, and they only need to report to the Dao Alliance regularly.

This invisibly elevated the status of the precept elders.

The pigeons were released, and the Huangfu group was not satisfied with Ji Yunzi's explanation.

"Senior brother hasn't arrived, can't the sound be transmitted?"

Ji Yunzi hurriedly said:

"Master Zun watched the heavens at night, and speculated that the spiritual energy concentration in the cultivation realm might drop sharply after three years, so he wanted to try to rush through the tribulation once within three years. ”

"What!"

Huangfu Qun's eyes were stunned, and he shot the case.

The crowd was shocked and silent.
