The location of the Lingbao Sect Hall was different from that of the Xiao Clan, but it was located on a cliff. There are no steps in the whole mountain, and the disciples of the sect are up and down according to their own cultivation. The peaks are connected by ropes, which is only to facilitate the passage of disciples who have transformed into cultivators.

Wu Zhong left from this mountain peak, turning around, and he had long since disappeared. I saw a medicine garden here, and the smell of medicine came to my nose. Wu Zhong walked over and couldn't help but see common ginseng, medicines like Polygonum multiflori, and some unseen ones, unknown ones blooming over there, which were very beautiful.

Wu Zhong walked in front of one of them, and saw that this plant had small fragmentary, lilac flowers, emitting a soft light under the sun, and with two or three verdant leaves, it was very beautiful. It's just strange that there isn't a single plant growing here in the area.

Isn't there something strange about it?

Wu Zhong slowly stretched out his right hand, wanting to touch the beautiful plant, but was stopped by a person behind him.

"What are you doing?" A crisp voice came from behind him, and Wu Zhong hurriedly withdrew his hand and got up to look at the visitor.

I saw that the person who came was a girl, dressed in a tea-white shirt, wearing two butterfly hairpins, and was staring at Wu Zhong with a pair of big eyes: "Where are you from? ”

When Wu Zhong heard that he had broken into someone else's territory, he hurriedly apologized: "I'm really sorry, girl." I was invited to the banquet by your faction, but because I was a little bored, I inadvertently broke into this place, thinking that this was a borderless place, so I walked in. I didn't want to offend the girl, and invited the girl Haihan. ”

When the little girl heard this, she sneered: "Are you from ancient times? ”

Wu Zhong was also a little embarrassed and scratched his head: "It is estimated that I have read too many novels recently, and my speech has changed my taste." ”

The little girl said, "Do you know what that one is? If you pull it out with one hand, you will be poisoned with both hands, and you may even have your limbs amputated." ”

Wu Zhong was a little frightened when he heard this: "What is this? ”

The little girl covered her mouth and smiled, "It's not a plant. After speaking, he squatted down and clapped his hands at the plant, "Rhubarb, come out quickly." ”

When the plant heard this, it shook for a while, and then it ran out of its own way, turning into a yellow puppy, clumsy and wagging its purple tail into the little girl's arms.

"Oh, you've stained my clothes!" the little girl said with a smile, "Rhubarb is a spirit animal that takes care of the medicine garden, don't look at him like this, he is fierce on weekdays." ”

It turned out to be a dog, with a simple look and a cute look.

"What breed of dog is this?" Wu Zhong asked curiously.

When the little girl heard this, she immediately covered her mouth and snickered. At this time, the puppy in his arms said angrily in an uncle's accent: "You are a dog!

Wu Zhong was stunned for a moment, this little thing had a big temper: "What are you not a dog?"

"I'm your ancestor!" Rhubarb said with a proud face, but was slapped on the ass by the little girl.

"Don't be rude. People are guests. The little girl said solemnly.

Rhubarb listened, glanced at Wu Zhong, and sulked in the little girl's arms.

"Bing'er, who are you talking to?" An old woman behind her slowly walked out, and Wu Zhong was stunned for a moment. I only felt that the person in front of me was as deep as the sea, undetectable.

The old woman looked at Wu Zhong: "Whose child are you, why did you come here?"

"Grandma, he's a guest of honor invited by Pyri, and he's here for a banquet. The little girl hurriedly ran to help the old woman and said to her.

Wu Zhong hurriedly stepped forward and bowed: "The junior Wu Zhong of the Lanling Xiao Clan has seen the seniors. ”

The old woman asked softly: "Lanling Xiao Clan, the origin is not small, but the cultivation is a little worse." If it's all right, just sit with me. ”

Wu Zhong was fine now, so he followed the old woman towards a house not far away. Along the way, Wu Zhong saw a variety of medicinal materials, but his knowledge was shallow, and he really couldn't recognize a few.

"Senior, are these all the medicinal herbs you planted?" Wu Zhong asked curiously as he walked beside the old woman.

The old woman bowed and whispered, "Well, what's the matter, you also know medicinal herbs?"

Wu Zhong said embarrassedly: "The juniors don't understand. ”

The old woman snorted and did not answer.

The little girl was beside her, and she said very proudly: "My grandma is the world's number one medicine master, be careful!" After speaking, she squeezed her eyes at Wu Zhong very naughtily.

Wu Zhong was shocked when he heard this. I thought that only the Xiao clan had a figure like Yu Hui in charge, but I didn't expect that other sects should not be underestimated. And the old man in front of him, if he met him on the street, he wouldn't even take a second look, but he didn't expect that it was such an ordinary person, but he was a top master.

The old woman smiled and scratched the little girl's nose: "Naughty." The little girl immediately giggled.

When I came to the house, like Wu Zhong's original Taoist temple, there was a stone table and four stone benches in the courtyard.

"Bing'er, go, get some tea, grandma wants to invite the guests to drink some tea." The old woman sat on the stone bench and said to the little girl.

Wu Zhong was embarrassed to trouble the other party, and hurriedly said, "Girl, no need." I'll sit and go. ”

The old woman beside her looked at Wu Zhong and said, "Why? Can't you drink a pot of tea with the old woman? Or are you afraid that the old woman will drug you? Don't worry, you can't use medicine for your cultivation." ”

Wu Zhong saw that the other party was like this, where did he dare to say anything else, so he had to agree.

Bing'er was holding a tea tray with a teapot and two palm-sized tea bowls on it, while Rhubarb, who had followed her, stared at a pot of charcoal fire with her head on it, slowly placed it on the side of the stone table, holding a fan in her hand, and concentrating on boiling tea.

Wu Zhong looked at him like this, it was very funny, and he couldn't help laughing twice. Rhubarb looked at Wu Zhong sideways, with a murderous look on his face, eager to tear him apart. And the old woman's cough suddenly turned this vicious puppy back into a poor child laborer.

Soon, the tea was boiling, and Wu Zhong hurriedly placed the washed tea set on the stone table, lifted the teapot and poured it for seven minutes, and then gently placed the teacup in front of the old woman.

The old woman looked at Wu Zhong and said with a smile, "It's not bad." ”

Seeing this, Wu Zhong poured himself a cup and drank it slowly.

The tea is fragrant in the mouth, and there is a faint bitterness coming out when swallowed, although it is a little bitter, but it is very pleasant.

"Good tea. Wu Zhong said softly.

The old woman gently put down the teacup, and when she saw Wu Zhong like this, she asked, "Do you know this tea?"

Wu Zhong hurriedly shook his head: "The seniors laughed, but the juniors just felt that this tea was very comfortable to drink, so they sighed." ”

The old woman smiled and said, "If it's delicious, drink more." Then he personally carried the teapot and filled Wu Zhong's teacup. Wu Zhonglian was ashamed.

"I heard you say that your name is Wu Zhong, it seems that you are the person they accepted in, who are you cultivating with now?" the old woman said slowly.

Wu Zhong said: "Go back to your predecessors. Indeed, as you said, the junior was the Xiao family who only went half a year ago, and before that, he was only cultivating by himself. Now I am practicing with Master Yu Hui. ”

When the old woman heard Yu Hui's name, she was stunned: "Is it Yu Hui, who is known as the first person under the immortals?

When Wu Zhong heard the other party say this, he had no choice but to smile: "The seniors said that they were joking, the master is strong and healthy, and his cultivation is profound, and he will definitely live with heaven and earth." ”

The old woman smiled and waved her hand: "Don't worry, I don't have any grudges with your master, but I am famous in the same era as him, and I don't even remember a simple intersection." ”

Wu Zhong smiled and did not speak.

The old woman looked up at the sky, filled in a few cranes and flew by, leaving a burst of crying: "Back then, your master was in the limelight, and the first person under the immortals was not blown, but relied on strong strength, little by little, so everyone gave him this name." Now, except for your master, me, and the old antique in Kunlun, it seems that other young talents have turned into a pinch of loess and gone to Hades for tea. ”

Wu Zhong saw that the old man was caught in a memory, and did not interrupt, but continued to listen. Yu'er next to her was holding a piece of chocolate and eating happily.

"That was hundreds of years ago, and your master was still young. Before getting this title, he had always prided himself as the Qinglian Sword Immortal, extremely chic. A green coat, a long sword, and nothing else. At that time, not long after the white eyebrows became immortals, everyone speculated that your master would be the next person to become an immortal. It's a pity that the way of heaven is incomplete, and your master was suppressed. Still, he didn't take it to heart at all. Since he couldn't become an immortal, Yu Hui retreated to the second place, and wanted to be the first person under the immortals. And that's it, the name was slowly broken out by him. And at this moment, Yu Hui met the love of his life, even if it was your teacher. ”

Wu Zhong listened reassuringly on the side, not daring to disturb the other party at all.

The old woman took a sip of tea, moistened her throat, and continued to say slowly: "Your sister-in-law is not a fairy beauty, and she does not have the appearance of a country and a city, and she is a child with a broken door, who has no power or power. But such a person actually married your master. It was such a grand marriage. In order to make your teacher happy, decent. Yu Hui borrowed his reputation and invited heroes from all over the world to come to the wedding banquet. Although there are many heroes in the world who have fought with your master, even if he loses, he still admires his personality. So that wedding banquet was really grand. ”

"I remember that at that time, he got rid of the peacock clan and came forward and took your master out of the original home. Along the way, all kinds of auspicious birds continue to join, and your master is like the king of birds, treated like the stars and the moon. When your master's chariot fell, your master stepped forward to help, with affection in his eyes, he was really envious of others. The old woman smiled and said, as if this matter was right in front of her, "Stepping through the gate, everyone greeted one after another, among them, Kunlun, Emei, the four major families, and other sects, almost all of them were present." For a while, the crowd was full of voices and congratulations. ”

Wu Zhong couldn't help but ask, "Then where is my senior sister now?"

The old woman sighed: "Your master, she died, and she died not long after marriage because of the fetus in her womb." Not long after the wedding, your sister became pregnant with a child. This makes your master happy, and he can't wait to announce it to the world immediately. But as time passed, there was a problem with your master's body: for some reason, all the essence in her body flowed to the child. And at the moment before giving birth, although your master tried all his methods, your master finally passed away because of the exhaustion of essence. At that time, your master asked someone to invite me over, but before I could get up, the news came. ”

And another bad news followed: the fetus in your mother's womb turned out to be a stillborn baby. No one expected this. At that time, your master's health was in trouble, and your master advocated that the fetus should be killed, but your master refused to let it. In desperation, he searched for famous doctors all over the world, but there was no good way. But at that time, for some reason, there was an illusion: the mother's essence no longer flowed to the fetus, and the fetus was also growing up healthily. But at the last moment, something happened and both mother and son died. ”

"After this incident, your master became like a madman, drinking all day long. Seeing this situation, the people who had enemies with him in the past slowly spread a rumor: This is all retribution for disobeying the mandate of heaven. It is a punishment from heaven. The old woman sighed, "We all know that although this incident is indeed weird, it has nothing to do with heaven. The way of heaven is incomplete, so how can you disobey the mandate of heaven? But your master actually listened to it, and finally became insane and disappeared. ”
