More than thirty days later, in the courtyard of Fangcao Building, Master Ming Zong was assessing the spells that his apprentices had learned.

"I'll count to three, and you'll immediately cast the Blade Blocker Spell. One...... Two...... Three!"

The master's last three voices fell, and Zheng Qiu immediately put his hands into his sleeves and took out a piece of white paper and a pen covered with a bamboo sleeve. Then he bent the thumb of his right hand, flicked the bamboo sleeve, and drew the spell as fast as he could.

Brush brush brush, he knows every stroke of the spell by heart, and in the blink of an eye, he finishes it.

Then Zheng Qiu put the pen between the ring finger and little finger of his left hand, and his right hand reached into his sleeve again, feeling out three brown heaven and earth crystals. Click, click, his fingers pulled hard, and he only used his right hand to skillfully break the three heaven and earth crystals.

At the same time, he wrapped the fragments of the three heaven and earth crystals in the white paper on which the spell pattern had been drawn, threw them to the ground with a snap, and recited the mantra loudly in his mouth.

"The four directions of the heavens, the gods have orders, the earth is made into figurines, in my shape, water and fire are difficult to bully, and the swords and soldiers do not touch their clothes. ”

As Zheng Qiu finished reciting the mantra, a yellow-brown mist suddenly appeared on the white paper, and the mist immediately rose up, revealing the texture of the earth. Then the clay condensed with each other and formed a figurine that was half a head taller than Zheng Qiu.

The clay figurine had a nose and eyes, and it was exactly the same as Zheng Qiu's clothes, but it held a square shield in both hands and looked straight ahead.

Master Mingzong walked up to the figurines, stretched out his hand and patted them, pounced, and there were no mud spots scattered, and they were quite strong.

He nodded in satisfaction and said, "Yes, the progress is obvious, and the release speed should be comparable to that of Yun Gong." ”

Hearing the master's praise, Zheng Qiu was very happy: "Master, then I can follow!"

"Well, you can go. But ......"

Master Ming Zong bent down, pulled up the apprentice's sleeve, and pointed out the deficiencies, "You put the pen and paper in your sleeve and take it out when you cast the spell, this process takes too much time. It is better to hang two open wooden boxes on the belt and put the pen and paper in it for faster access. ”

"Yes, the master is really good, I'm going to get two wooden boxes. ”

The clay figurines summoned by the spell did not last long, and while the master and apprentice were talking, the figurines collapsed to the ground with a clatter, slowly dispersing into a brown mist.

The day of the heartless and heartfelt Zhuang congratulatory banquet is close at hand, because the two sects are directly far apart, and the Qianyun Sect has to set off two days in advance to catch up.

Early in the morning, Zheng Qiu left Fangcao Peak, stepped on the thick fallen leaves on the avenue, and rushed to Tianzhou Square.

At this time, in Tianzhou Square, all kinds of Tianzhou were moved around, far away from the one parked in the middle. The boat was also in the shape of two plates together, but it was bigger and more beautiful.

On the silver-gray metal shell, red copper grains form a piece of clouds, and at the junction of the clouds and clouds, there are also colorful lampstones, releasing soft fluorescence. Zheng Qiu could imagine what it looked like flying in the night sky, definitely like the stars in the night sky.

He looked around a few times, walked to the bottom of the heavenly boat, and waited with his back against the iron pillar of the boat. The master asked him to come to Tianzhou Square and wait first, and he went to Picking Cloud Peak to find the sect master.

After a while, a young man fell from the sky, he straightened up his clan clothes and walked straight to the heavenly boat in the middle of the square.

When he walked to the bottom of the heavenly boat, he saw a little boy leaning against the iron pillar, the boy was wearing a blue moire sect robe, and he was an official disciple.

"What are you doing here? This is not a heavenly boat to the post station. ”

The young man walked over and pulled the boy away from the iron pillar, urging him to hurry away: "Don't stay here, the elders will be angry when they see you." Walk, walk......"

The boy shook his head and refused to leave, but told the young man that he was waiting for his master.

The young man couldn't help but be a little annoyed: "Why are you like this, I kindly persuade you, you still don't appreciate it? Today is a major event in the sect, if you don't leave, I'll drive you away!"

"Guan Conghui, what kind of tantrum are you throwing at?"

At this time, another figure fell from the sky, this person's voice was extremely familiar, Zheng Qiu bypassed the young man named Guan Conghui and looked behind him, yes, it was an acquaintance.

"Senior Brother Shao Wei!" Zheng Qiu raised his hand and waved to greet Senior Brother.

Shao Wei walked over, touched Zheng Qiu's head and smiled, "Hahaha, I knew you would be here." ”

These two sentences made Guan Conghui feel confused, and he put away his annoyance and asked Shao Wei: "Shao Wei, do you know this child?"

"Of course I know, his name is Zheng Qiu, and I met him when I was punished by my master to go to the mountain gate. Shao Wei thought of the situation at that time, and the smile on his face was even worse, "Now he is Elder Mingzong's apprentice, and Elder Mingzong is this apprentice." ”

Hearing this, Guan Conghui finally understood that Zheng Qiu was not here to mess around, but a disciple who went to the banquet.

Guan Conghui generously apologized to Zheng Qiu: "Senior brother, I'm sorry, I just wanted to mind where I was reckless and didn't like what I said." ”

Zheng Qiu hurriedly waved his hand: "It's okay, it's okay, I didn't know my senior brother just now." ”

The misunderstanding was cleared up, and the three of them stood under the heavenly boat, waiting for the others to arrive.

While waiting, Guan Conghui asked Shao Wei in a low voice: "You said that Zheng Qiu is Elder Mingzong's apprentice, why?"

Shao Wei glanced at him: "How do I know, anyway, the first time I took him to see the elder, the elder was still angry." ”

As time passed, the disciples who participated in the congratulatory banquet rushed to Tianzhou Square one after another, and Senior Brother Shao Wei made an introduction, and there was no misunderstanding like the one just now.

Zheng Qiu counted, excluding himself, there were a total of eleven people, these eleven people were men and women, and they were all older than him. Senior brothers and sisters were very interested in Zheng Qiu, and they all speculated about the reason why Elder Ming Zong accepted apprentices.

A senior sister specially advised Zheng Qiu: "Senior brother, I advise you to change your master as soon as possible, Elder Ming Zong is unreliable." ”

Zheng Qiu felt very strange, why was the master unreliable?

The senior sister explained: "Elder Ming Zong does research and research every day, and the disciples in the sect know that he has been stuck in the Qiyao Realm for decades without any progress. There are many disciples of high seniority, and their cultivation has already reached this level. ”

A senior brother next to him nodded in agreement: "Yes, he can't even cross the threshold of the Transformation God Realm, and he is losing face a little as he is honest." ”

Even Guan Conghui echoed: "Zheng Qiu, if you want to cultivate to be an outstanding person, the experience taught by the master is extremely important. Elder Ming Zong has not been able to break through the Transformation God Realm for so many years, and his cultivation experience is definitely not as good as that of other elders. ”

The senior brothers and sisters were all saying that the master was not good, and the more Zheng Qiu listened, the more angry he became, he covered his ears and shook his head vigorously. "I don't listen, I don't listen! Master is definitely not what you say, don't listen to ......."

He shouted and ran towards the avenue leading to Tianzhou Square in the sect. The master is not like this, the master is so powerful, they must be lying to me, yes, they are all lying to me, they want me to leave the master.

Zheng Qiu ran all the way forward, he didn't want to stay with these senior brothers and sisters, he wanted to find Master Mingzong.
