Wu Zhong sighed in his heart as he listened to these past events.

"After a long time, just when everyone thought that your master was dead, he came out and chased and killed a former opponent, Gongsun Yan. Gongsun Yan is a person who is logically a master, but his fame does not rely on cultivation, but on poison, so his reputation has not been very good. At that time, it was rumored that the death of your master was because Gongsun Yan secretly committed witchcraft, and both mother and son died. When your master found out, he went after him. But the force behind the other party is the Qinghe Cui family, one of the four major families. At that time, your master was no longer famous, and although his cultivation was still profound, there were still many rising stars. And the famous Qinghe Ghost King is in the world. At that time, the Qinghe Cui clan was in the limelight for a while, how could he hand over Gongsun Yan because of a suspicion. The two sides fought because of this, and although your master defeated the Qinghe Ghost King, his body was also poisoned by the Corpse King. ”

"Just when he was in despair, the Lanling Xiao clan took action and rescued your master, and promised him that as long as he was willing to join the Xiao clan, they would naturally get the head of Gongsun Yan for him. Your master agreed. ”

The old woman continued: "At that time, the Qinghe Cui clan and the Lanling Xiao clan were already tense, and after this incident, a big war broke out. At that time, the monastic world was dim, and there were dead people everywhere. The goods of the two camps have been good for a long time, and in the end, even the Qinghe Ghost King, who claims to have an immortal body, has died, which shows that the battle situation is tragic. In the end, a young man from the Xiao clan secretly assassinated Gongsun Yan, which was considered to have fulfilled his promise. And without Gongsun Yan, the Cui family was already in a precarious situation, which was even worse. The building collapsed in an instant, and finally under the intervention of Jingzhao Webster, Emei, and Kunlun, the two sides stopped, and the Qinghe Cui clan also avoided the difficulty of destruction. ”

Wu Zhong sat aside and listened carefully to what the old woman said, and only then did he have some understanding of the master's affairs in his heart. He also couldn't understand why the master, who had cultivated to a superb level, would stay in the Xiao family's small broken courtyard.

"Only we old guys know about this, and few others have heard of it. The old woman smiled and said, "In your master's life, life is worth living." ”

"Thank you seniors for informing me, it's just that juniors don't know what seniors call yet?" Wu Zhong said respectfully.

The old woman poured tea into the two tea bowls, took a sip of the teacup, and then said slowly: "You don't need to know my name." But I see that you have some injuries on your body, and this tea can cure the dark diseases in your body, which can be regarded as an explanation to your master. ”

Wu Zhong listened to it and hurriedly secretly operated his mana, and sure enough, as the old woman said, the original feeling of stagnation had disappeared, and it was smoother than before. Seeing this, he hurriedly got up and bowed to the old woman: "Thank you, senior!"

The old woman got up slowly and waved her hand at him: "I have said enough things today, you can go, I will also rest, my wife." ”

Seeing this, Wu Zhong bowed deeply to the old woman, and saw Yu'er helping the old woman into the house before turning around and leaving.

Coming to the medicine garden just now, Wu Zhong's heart was much more comfortable than just now. Originally, he was still worried about the internal injuries on his body, but now he has swept them away, which is really a lot more comfortable.

When he returned to the main hall again, the people inside had already dispersed, it turned out that Ge Zhen had arranged to discuss matters tomorrow, and today was just to receive everyone. And Yu Hui was still waiting for him there. When he looked up and saw Wu Zhong, he exhaled slowly and said with a smile, "Let's go." ”

The master and apprentice followed the guidance of the Taoist and came to a secluded mountain peak, and halfway up the mountain, there was a house, which must be the place where the two spent the night today.

Late at night, Wu Zhong came out to walk alone, stayed on a cliff, sat there, and looked at this piece of heaven and earth.

The moon stars are scarce, and the black magpie flies south. The clear spring in the forest trickles, and the deer roost late at night. Wu Zhong jumped deeply, fell to the ground, sat in a bamboo forest, and slowly savored the tranquility.

Feeling the cool night breeze, Wu Zhong slowly recalled the words of that senior in his mind. When he was young, Master was full of spirit, as if he was already old, and although he was not poor, he was no longer in the past. Now, the Heavenly Dao is suppressed, and he can't become an immortal, even if there is an opportunity, he still doesn't see the master moved by it, does he not want to become an immortal? Or even if he becomes an immortal, he can't move him? When this incident passes, I don't know how long it will take for such an opportunity to appear again. I can't catch up this time, what about next time? Will I be able to survive until that time?

Li Bai said that I was born to be useful, and Confucius said that he knew the destiny of heaven at fifty. Where is my talent? How should I know my destiny? What should I do after I find my parents? Thinking of this, his heart was confused.

And just then, he heard someone tiptoeing towards the mountain in front of him not far away. Seeing this, Wu Zhong hurriedly hid his figure and hid aside.

"Quietly. Have you brought everything with you?" Wu Zhong, the person who spoke, could hear that it was Ge Yun who had eaten deflated during the day.

A small guy next to him took out something from his pocket, and as soon as the thing appeared, there was a sudden heat around him, and the wild deer and hares who were nearby were awakened and hurriedly fled.

"Who let you take it out now! I'll tell you, if you startle the snake, I won't let you eat and walk around!" Ge Yun said again, "Embarrassing me, I'll burn you." The two of them staggered towards the mountain, Wu Zhong looked at their backs, and thought to himself, is this a fool?

Yu Hui didn't know when he stood by Wu Zhong's side, and he was also puzzled in his heart. This young head is really doing whatever he wants.

"Master, you're awake. Wu Zhong said.

Yu Hui smiled and said, "With such a big movement, I can't sleep if I want to." ”

Wu Zhong looked at the sneaky figures of the two and shook his head for a while: "How can there be such a stupid person in the world." ”

Since the two of them had not been able to cultivate into gods, they could not leap over the place where they lived, and when they climbed the mountainside, they were already out of breath.

Ge Yun saw the room in front of him, thinking that the annoying master and apprentice were sleeping soundly in it, and there was a burst of viciousness in his heart: "Go quickly, pour the Nine Spirit Fire into this house, and then they will not be able to escape even if they are Daluo Immortals!"

The little guy next to him hurriedly took out the jade gourd containing the nine spirit fires, and was just about to drive, who would have thought that a person would fall in mid-air. This person is Zhao Ping's disciple, named Zhuo Qingyun. In the early stage of cultivating as a god, he was also the most promising disciple of the Lingbao Sect.

As soon as Zhuo Qingyun appeared, with a casual move, the jade gourd fell into his hand. I saw that his left hand flicked, and a sharp purple whip struck the little guy fiercely. The whip fell on his body, and the skin suddenly opened, and the little girl's face was in pain, but in the face of this Zhuo Qingyun, he didn't dare to shout at all, so he had to endure it.

And when Ge Yun saw Zhuo Qingyun, his face also changed, and he retreated again and again, which showed that he was also afraid of this person in his heart.

"You can't persuade the young head to do nonsense, and he should be regarded as an accomplice. From today on, you don't have to wait by the side of the young master. From tomorrow onwards, let's go to work outside!" Zhuo Qingyun's faint words sent this little guy out of the inner court, which shows the great power.

"You can't do this! He's mine! You don't have the right to kick him out of the inner court!" said Ge Yun with a sneering voice.

Zhuo Qingyun slowly looked at Ge Yun, glared at him, and said softly: "You are so blatantly harmful, and you still expect to succeed? Even if you can drive the Nine Spirit Fire, I'm afraid that before you can kill the other party, your head will no longer be on your body. ”

Ge Yun didn't believe it, and hurriedly ran in to check, but sure enough, it was empty.

"Early tomorrow morning, the master will punish you and banish you to the North Hell, and go to the Tide Palace to cultivate. If you can't cultivate into a god, don't come back. Zhuo Qingyun said.

When Ge Yun heard this, he was immediately furious, pointed at the other party's nose and scolded: "You just want to drive me out so that I can inherit the position of the head of the family! As far as you are careful, I already knew! Do you think my father will grant you your wish? You just dream!"

Zhuo Qingyun ignored him, took the jade gourd and left directly. Only the master and the servant were left, one of them thundered, and the other fell to the ground, groaning in pain.

Wu Zhong looked at this scene and said with a smile: "This person is really ruthless, he is not afraid of offending this young master if he does this." ”

Yu Hui smiled and said: "He did this just to show us the master and apprentice, wait, tomorrow you will see him appear next to Ge Zhen, and he will be left and right." ”

When Wu Zhong thought of this, a sentence suddenly appeared in his mind: "The heart of playing tactics is dirty." ”

On the second day, I saw Ge Zhen come here early in the morning with Zhuo Qingyun and Ge Yun, saying that he wanted to come to the door to make amends. When Yu Hui saw this scene, he looked at Wu Zhong meaningfully, and Wu Zhong also had an expression that was really like this.

Yu Hui pretended not to know and asked what was wrong. This Ge Zhen is also refreshing, and he talked about last night's incident, but the focus is that his son was bewitched by others to do this evil thing. Hope Yu Hui raised his noble hand, promised to discipline Ge Yun well, and sent it to the North Dark Tide Palace.

This North Stygian Tide Palace, which is a branch of the Lingbao Sect, is located and is pointed out. On weekdays, it is used to imprison some people in the sect who have made mistakes, and occasionally bring some good ice spirits back to the Lingbao Sect. This time, he sent his son there, which can be regarded as giving enough face to the two.

Seeing this situation, it was naturally inconvenient to say more, but he just said a few words without pain, and followed Ge Zhen to the main hall. At this time, the hall was already full of people from all sects, and when they saw Ge Zhen and a few people coming in, they hurriedly stepped forward to salute. Under the guidance of everyone, Yu Hui sat in the first position, Wu Zhong stood behind him, and opposite, Li Banian of the Qingcheng faction.

Wu Zhong looked around, in addition to the Xiao Sect and the Qingcheng Sect, only the Shangqing Sect and the Ziwei Sect were considered big factions, and the others were all small and medium-sized sects. Although there are a large number of people, the quality is really average.

Ge Zhen looked at the people below, and he didn't know in his heart that most of the people sitting below were just trying to find a way to get a backer. There are very few that can really make a difference. He originally sent invitations to the four major families, but only the Lanling Xiao clan came, and only the Shangqing faction and Ziwei faction attended with whom he usually had good friends, and others such as the Shenxiao faction and Yuelu Mountain were nowhere to be seen.
