Lu Yuanqing saw Gu Yu coming from afar, and did not ask, but waited for him to get closer, and then went down the mountain together. Gu Yu didn't speak, just walked in silence.

The name of Yiyun Peak is good, but the scenery is not very good, the vegetation is sparse, the rocks are bare, and many places are bare. As soon as the wind blows, don't listen to the swaying of the forest, only desolate.

"At the end of the year, the Taoist Academy will choose to accept disciples, and there will be a ceremony at that time, and you will be invited to come and watch the ceremony. When he was almost halfway up the mountain, Lu Yuanqing suddenly spoke.

"Oh, then congratulations to the chief, I will definitely send someone. Gu Yu smiled.

"Heh, I heard that Phoenix Mountain has six hundred disciples, and there are only five hundred and twenty-eight people in my Daomen, and then select the best, it is estimated that there are not many left, and there are two or three hundred people who are unexpected. ”

"You and I have different philosophies about accepting disciples, so we don't need to care about that. ”

Gu Yu glanced at the other party a few times and said, "I look at your Dan Qi Essence, your mind is clear, and there is a faint appearance of overflowing, but you are about to break through?"

"It's still a little early, maybe in a year or two. ”

Lu Yuanqing was not complacent, paused, and inexplicably changed the topic: "When the big ceremony is completed, I plan to go to Yushan to get treasures, and the layman wants to go with me?"

"I have already taken two eyes, and I have a word for future generations in advance, you can go if you want, don't worry. ”

Gu Yu really didn't have any ill feelings towards him, and reminded: "There are many magic weapons in the first two eyes, you had better prepare them well, so as not to lose them again." ”

"Exactly, it would be nice to bring more people. ”

After Lu Yuanqing finished speaking, he was silent again.

The two walked side by side, and they were almost at the foot of the mountain, and there were Taoist miscellaneous servants coming and going, carrying rice, flour, vegetables and fruits to Zhuling. Gu Yu came over just for Tan Chongdai's remnant soul, and he would have to leave.

He just wanted to say goodbye to the other party, but Lu Yuanqing suddenly said: "Do you know that the government has found two more swords?"

"Huh?"

Gu Yu was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly asked, "You mean the sword weapon of the Youxian Sect?"

"One is in Shudi, and the other is in Beihai, both of which are this year's things, and there is no difference of a month. They didn't find the Taoist Academy to verify, maybe they placed it in the capital. ”

"And how do you know?"

"I have my own sources. ”

Sizzle!

Gu Yu frowned, at the beginning, there were seven sword weapons, and six flew out, and later found a black water sword, which had been scrapped and was now hidden in Phoenix Mountain. In addition, there is a sword species, which is still missing.

The most important thing is that Phoenix Mountain was completely unaware of this news!

“……”

He looked at Lu Yuanqing, and Lu Yuanqing also looked at him, still with the same clear water face, and then stretched out his hand to signal, indicating that he wanted to send another ride.

So the two of them followed the mountain path, meandered down, and soon disappeared into the dense forest.

"A few years ago, the world began to change, time was tight and there was a lot of pressure. As a last resort, they established the Taoist Academy and took advantage of the momentum of the Taoist Gate to develop their strength.

Cultivating the Tao is not an overnight thing, of course they want to cultivate their cronies, but those people are wallowing in the world, and they are thinking in the red dust, how can they become enlightened? We are different, we have been practicing since childhood, and we have been doing this in the first place, so the Taoist monastery was pulled out and made an expedient measure.

But at this time and then, the government has been brewing for five or six years, do you think they will completely trust the Taoist Academy and not train their own manpower?"

Lu Yuanqing said as he walked, his tone was steady, without a trace of emotion, as if he was talking about something that had nothing to do with him. Gu Yu didn't answer, and sure enough, he listened to the other party again:

"Our exercises have been taken away, and that's fundamental. On the surface, the scenery of the Taoist Academy is infinite, and all the talents in the world are in the hub. But how big is the world, and how many good people are there? Only 528?

Even if they didn't have manpower before, but find some Puyu children, start cultivating from a young age, with their resources and execution......, what will happen now?

He seems to have said that.

"I also thought before that the government would definitely secretly cultivate its own power, but without direct contact like you, it would be a fog after all, and now I ...... listen to you."

Gu Yu opened his mouth and finally sighed.

Never underestimate the vision and ability of a big country, they have never underestimated it, but at this moment, they feel that there is an invisible big hand, always controlling the direction behind their backs.

Especially Lao Gu, in the process of his contact with the government, he basically maintained a balance, and even had a slight upper hand on a few occasions. He thought that it was due to his own strength and the needs of the government, but now that he thinks about it, it may have been intentional by the other party.

They need those benefits, and they also need themselves - to use the power of human immortals to explore something. Lu Yuanqing made this point clear, afraid that he was showing goodwill to Phoenix Mountain and had the intention of formally forming an alliance.

Gu Yu was aware of it, but he didn't want to respond clearly.

In some matters, a united front can be reached, but the respective positions are different, and a formal alliance is impossible.

"On the way to practice, the realm is always king, and when you get to the clouds, the big problem naturally becomes a small problem...... See you in the future, you don't have to send it far!"

As the words fell, the golden light rose into the sky, crossing the sky and disappearing.

Seeing this, Lu Yuanqing couldn't help but shake his head lightly, didn't he understand the reason?

…………

"Bang!"

"Rongzhi, win!"

In the arena, a girl in her twenties fell down in response, her back was as if she had been chiseled with a heavy hammer, and her bones were about to break. And her opponent was a slightly older young man, with a cold face and no pity for her.

"Okay, the competition of each group is over, and ten candidates will be announced!"

Xiao Jin jumped into the middle of the field and said loudly: "The five members of the Xuantian Palace, Zeng Keer, Lei Xiao, Yuan Lingshan, Su Xingzhou, and Rong Zhi. Ying Yuandian five, You Yu, Tao Tong, Tao Yi, Wang Rong, Guan Mengyi. This time, I will lead the team, you will sort it out as soon as possible and set off tomorrow!"

"Yes!"

The ten people who were called answered in unison.

This is exactly the fighting skills of the two sides, deciding the candidates, and rushing to Snake Island to develop a stronghold. Rotated every six months, this time Xiao Jin, next time Long Qiu should lead the team.

The disciples did not feel that it was a chore, but were full of interest and rushed to go. One is that I am bored in the mountains, but now that I have matured in the art of passing on talismans, I can also study my schoolwork elsewhere. The second is to develop the territory, ouch, what a sense of accomplishment this is!

Think about it a few years later, the later junior brothers and sisters landed on Snake Island, and they can show it to their heart's content: Look, this is what we fought back then, and we can fork our waists for a while!

Among these ten people, six men and four women, each with their own strengths. I simply packed my luggage, tossed and turned excitedly, and it was the next morning.

Everyone gathered in the small square, and after waiting for a while, the air flow surged, and Gu Yu appeared out of thin air.

With a wave of his long sleeves, a white bone shuttle boat floated on the surface of the river, and without nonsense, he directly sent eleven people into it. The shuttle boat dived and went all the way east along the river to the Bohai Sea.

“……”

Ten people are confused!

It took half a ring to come back to his senses, and he didn't dare to move, sneakily poking left and right, full of curiosity. Especially through the "window", I can clearly see the underwater world, and I am even more amazed.

Xiao Jin also sat down for the first time, and shouted vigorously: "You have this good thing, why don't you take it out sooner?" You and my sister went to the sea to surf the waves, and left us at home, do you still have a conscience? This is made of Jiao bones, wow, I didn't expect it to be very useful...... Hey, what's going on with my sister's whale boat?"

"I'm still researching, it's much bigger, and the loading capacity is different. ”

"Isn't that just a ship? Tsk, I said there are a lot of treasures on the sea, let you go and see, how about it, there is. ”

"When did you say that?"

"Anyway, there is!"

Just chattering and chattering, I didn't travel at full speed, and I arrived at Bohai Haikou in half a day.

The shuttle boat turned northwest and about ten kilometers from the land, and a small island appeared in front of me. The island is reefed on three sides and relatively safe on the other, but it is also a pebble beach with only small boats to dock.

There is also a layer of mist on the surrounding sea, which is caused by the excessive humidity and heat of the island, which is caused by the low temperature of the sea, which provides a natural barrier.

The shuttle boat surfaced, and eleven people went to the island in turn, and Gu Yu asked, "When will you go back?"

"I'll stay for at least half a month, and I can only leave after I have served them. Xiao Jin said.

"Well, when the time comes, you will go back to the mountain by yourself, I will not have time to pick you up, be careful not to be discovered. ”

"Oops...... I'll fuck you uncle!"

Xiao Jin hurriedly chased two steps, watching the shuttle sink to the bottom of the sea, so angry that she exploded all over her body, and puffed out her claws. She argued with the sea for a long time, and when she turned around and saw a smiling disciple, she became more and more annoyed.

"Laugh at anything, get on with me, your hellish life begins!"

……

Compared with well-known disciples such as Zeng Keer and You Yu, the two new faces of Su Xingzhou and Rong Zhi were not outstanding before. Their strength is among the six hundred, and they can rank in the middle and upper ranks, but this is not the important thing.

Both were in their early twenties and had gone to college. Su Xingzhou has studied mechanical manufacturing, and he is a handicraft expert, with a flowing brain, and often makes some practical gadgets, which helps a lot when doing tasks.

Rong Zhi, the family has practiced medicine for generations, and his great-grandfather was a medical officer in the late Qing Dynasty, and he is also proficient in pharmacology. Bringing the two of them here can be said to be a good use of their strengths, so that they can quickly take root on Snake Island.

Of course, exploring the environment is a priority right now. Xiao Jin stood on the pebble beach, holding a map and looking carefully: this island is 1,500 meters long, 800 meters wide, the main peak is 216.9 meters above sea level, there are many cliffs on all sides, as well as forests, stone caves, mountain beams and valleys, and there are almost no open flats.

There are about 20,000 alienated black-browed pit vipers on the island, they are extremely patient, can change color, are venomous, have a small body, but are very edible, and can open their mouths to 120 degrees.

"It's a former research center, with a small two-story building, a well, and a wind turbine. ”

Xiao Jin pointed to a red circle in the center and ordered, "There are two ways to cross, I want to go separately, do you have confidence?"

"Yes, we've been cultivating for more than a year, and we can't even handle a few snakes, so don't mess around when we go out. Lei Xiao said.

"That's it, this is not a horror movie, dividing troops is equivalent to giving away people's heads, don't be afraid, don't be afraid!" Zeng Keer said with a smile.

"Okay, you are a team of five, I won't follow, gather in the small building, and set off immediately!"

Xiao Jin's body shook and ran away by herself.

Ten people stared at each other, but they also knew that this was her teaching style. In fact, Zeng Keer thinks it's very good, because Long Qiu is too gentle, and Mu is passionate.

The girl is special, and immediately waved her little hand and shouted: "Ying Yuan and Ying Yuan, Xuantian and Xuantian, the game is not over, let's go!"
