Chapter 1 Ascending the Mountain to Apprentice
"Xiao Chen, come and see your master. Gu Xiuyuan beckoned the little girl not far behind him to come over.
Gu Xichen, who was only four years old, walked over expressionlessly according to her father's order.
Gu Xichen quietly looked at the person beside his father, and saw that he was wearing a dark robe, his face was like a knife, and his body was awe-inspiring.
To her surprise, her father said to take her to see his senior brother this morning, and it turned out that she was now seeing a man who looked more than a dozen years younger than her father.
In this comparison, the old father who whipped her all day seemed a little kind?
"Xichen has seen Shizun. In the voice of a milky child, it sounded a little mature and mature, which was extremely incompatible with her cute, round little face.
She is not the same as children of the same age, she does not like or mourn, and she looks cold and serious all year round.
All this is to blame on her own father, Lao Gu.
Gu Xiuyuan was once the one hundred and thirty-sixth generation inner disciple of the Changyang Sect. However, after he came down the mountain at a young age, he experienced a lot of things and did not want to go back to the mountain. At that time, the imperial court also wanted to recruit the group of immortal masters flying around in the sky, so Gu Xiuyuan went to sign up, becoming the first generation of founding elders to form the Imperial Spirit Division to collect information from spiritual cultivators and the Secretary of the Imperial Spirit Division who was in charge of everything in the division.
With his ingenuity, slowly his career became bigger and bigger. The Imperial Spirit Division has changed from an intelligence center to a special management agency that can now intervene in both the human world and the spirit world.
At this time, Gu Xiuyuan had a headache, he wanted to pass on the Great Spirit Division that he had made single-handedly, and it was best for the Gu family to control it. When he encountered a bottleneck in his cultivation, he had a hunch that he would not live as long as his fellow disciples and ascend, and maybe one day he would take the first step when he encountered an accident.
At this time, Gu Xiuyuan looked at his children.
Lao Gu married three women, and his wives each bore him a child.
The eldest was born to him and an ordinary woman, this boy did not inherit any of his physique, and was an ordinary mortal from head to toe. Even if the child was of no use to the family, he still raised the child with all his heart and sent him to participate in the scientific expedition. Who made the child's mother look like the goddess of first love that he had been begging for.
The second child is also a boy. His mother is the concubine of the head of a small sect, Zhang's cultivation has reached the realm, and her son's qualifications also follow his mother.
Among the three children in the family, only the second wife, the child born to Gu Xiuyuan's only wife, Wen Mingyuan, that is, Gu Xichen, has an extremely high cultivation talent.
Gu Xichen's mother's Wen family is a great family of spiritual cultivators, and there have been many great major repairs in the clan over the ages. Of course, the most powerful thing about the Wen family is not here, the most powerful thing in this family is that the children born to the girls in the family will inherit the best genes of both parents.
Therefore, Gu Xichen can be regarded as a birth
"Senior brother, your cultivation is no longer below me, and it is said that my younger brother and sister are also very talented, why do you and your wife still send this little doll to me? You must know that it is not so easy to be my apprentice. ”
"I know, senior brother, I inquired when I came, and you have accepted a disciple for so many years, and it was more than ten years ago when you were an elder. ”
"Do you know you're still coming?" Li Zhiwen was disgusted, and he had already decided to accept this apprentice in his heart. In addition to the friendship between him and Gu Xiuyuan's former classmates, but also because this kid's roots are really good, and he is a rare Heavenly Spirit Root like him.
This kind of spiritual root is rare in the world, and the upper limit of cultivation is very high, but because it is rare, it is difficult to find a teacher to teach, and it is very likely to be a stumbling block.
"Haven't I been busy dealing with the trivial matters in the Imperial Spirit Division, and I can't take time to teach my children. Ming Yuan's body has been getting worse day by day since he gave birth to this child, so there is no one in the family who can teach this child. You've just seen this child's spiritual root, and this is yours!"
"Okay, let's wait and remember to hand over some more spirit stones and gold. ”
Gu Xiuyuan pushed Li Zhiwen's arm and said with a smile: "Senior brother, why are you still the same as twenty years ago?"
At this time, a group of teenage white-clothed teenagers walked down from the sword altar not far away, and they frolicked on the steps, discussing with each other and showing off the magic weapons they had just obtained.
"Think, come here. Li Zhiwen raised his hand and beckoned one of the boys.
So among the children, the oldest and tallest boy walked to the pavilion where Li Zhiwen was standing.
He had a square bun on the top of his head, and although he was also wearing a plain white disciple's uniform, he had the same light blue cloud crane embroidery on his shoulders as on Li Zhiwen's sleeves.
"Master. Liu Sidao saluted Li Zhiwen.
"It is worthy of being the chief disciple of the head of the Changyang Sect, it is really good to get two magic weapons from the sword pool. Gu Xiuyuan exclaimed.
"I've seen Uncle Shi. Liu Sidao also saluted him.
Gu Xiuyuan smiled and waved his hand, wanting to say that he was no longer a member of the Changyang Sect.
"Sidao, this is your junior sister, you take her back to Wuself Peak first to settle down. Li Zhiwen said.
"Yes. Liu Sidao stepped forward and stretched out his hand to Gu Xichen.
Gu Xichen secretly glanced at his father, immediately withdrew his eyes, hesitantly stretched out his hand and put it in Liu Sidao's palm, and followed him.
The teenagers who came down from the sword altar didn't dare to leave after seeing the master, huddled together on the side of the road and watched the excitement, discussing in a low voice. They have never been out of the mountain since they went up to the mountain to apprentice, and they are very new to outsiders, especially a little junior sister.
"Tut-tut, when will my master be able to recruit a little sister for me to come in. One of the teenagers said in a loud voice.
Someone immediately replied to him with a smile: "Cut, second senior brother, you will die of this heart, your master Fire God Venerable will never accept female apprentices in this life, you know this matter better than us, right?"
Someone else said: "Hey, Xiao Wuyan, you Desireless Peak doesn't have a senior sister or sister, but I see that you have a lot of teasing other peaks." ”
"Go, go, how can I have! I'm your second senior brother, can you respect me a little like you do with senior brother?" Xiao Wuyan retorted.
Gu Xiuyuan turned his head to look at the noise here, and when he saw Xiao Wuyan's face, his heart couldn't help but tremble.
"Senior brother, who is that kid?" Gu Xiuyuan raised his hand and pointed at Xiao Wuyan.
Li Zhiwen looked over with his arm, lowered his eyelids and sighed, "It's her child." ”
Li Zhiwen didn't say it explicitly, but Gu Xiuyuan got the answer.
Gu Xiuyuan thought of the past, and couldn't help but bow his head and sigh: "He really looks like his mother." ”
"Actually, it's more like his father. Li Zhiwen looked blankly at Xiao Wuyan, who was gradually moving away.
At this time, Xiao Wuyan and his junior disciples hooked their shoulders and prepared to go to the cafeteria to eat some good food, smiling happily.
He had no idea that someone behind him was watching him, and he didn't know that he was smiling like his mother, whom he had never met.
Gu Xiuyuan looked at Li Zhiwen slightly sideways and said, "It turns out that you are deeper than me, and you have helped her raise her son." ”
Li Zhiwen frowned, looked a little angry, and retorted: "I didn't! Besides, I didn't help her raise her son, I would have thrown this child to the Fire God a long time ago." ”
