Chapter 40: Loneliness

After hiding his identity for ten years, Pei Yuanjin didn't expect it to be exposed in front of his apprentice, but it's okay, Tan Jingxuan, an apprentice, knows his temperament very well.

Speaking of Pei Yuanjin's past, there are not many disciples under his seat, and Tan Jingxuan is one of them, and it is also the one he did not accept under his seat back then. Speaking of Tan Jingxuan, it was brought back by Pei Yuanjin once he went to the sect mission, and when he brought it back, Tan Jingxuan was not very old, he was about three years old, and he didn't have much memory. Thinking of Tan Jingxuan when he was a child, Pei Yuanjin was more or less emotional, even if he grew up, his unique characteristics were still retained, that's right, Tan Jingxuan has been a crying bag since he was a child.

If he hadn't finished the sect mission on the way back, he would have gone to the mortal world to buy some snacks and go back, he would not have met Tan Jingxuan's father who was killed by the enemy, leaving him sitting alone beside his father's corpse crying and breaking his liver and intestines, a little doll was abandoned like this, and there would definitely not be much good end in the future, a better one might be picked up and taken home as a son to raise, and he would almost be abducted by human traffickers and sold to rich people as slaves, or at worst, he would become a beggar or starve to death on the side of the road.

Pei Yuanjin also saw that Tan Jingxuan's spiritual root was good, so he took him back to the sect and threw it directly to his eldest disciple and handed it over to him to deal with, but who knew that Tan Jingxuan, who brought it back, would cry all day long, and he wouldn't cry when he saw Pei Yuanjin, and finally Pei Yuanjin had to take him with him, and the area was ten years, carefully teaching him to practice, and the resources he got were the best like other personal disciples. Tan Jingxuan, who grew up, still loves to cry, but that is also because he is soft-hearted, which makes Pei Yuanjin and his senior brothers have a headache, and they can't be cured no matter how they are treated.

Later, Pei Yuanjin simply didn't care, he let him cry if he loved to cry, and he still had to continue to face the cruel cultivation realm when it was time to face it, crying was probably just his instinct, anyway, as a master, he had long been used to it, and the disciples under him had long been used to it.

Tan Jingxuan, who was still twitching in the corners of his eyes just now, held back two big bubbles of tears after hearing the familiar name, and Pei Yuanjin didn't know where his voice that had not yet turned into a man's voice touched Tan Jingxuan's nerves.

Before Tan Jingxuan was about to cry, Pei Yuanjin hurriedly stopped him and said, "Don't cry!" ”

Tan Jingxuan sat next to Pei Yuanjin, forcibly held back his eyes, and choked up: "Master, I didn't expect to meet you, it's really true to see your reincarnation...... I'm a little excited. ”

Pei Yuanjin stretched out his hand and patted his apprentice's shoulder, he used to comfort and cry Bao Tan Jingxuan, and couldn't help but sigh: "Xuan'er, you are not young now, why are you still so crying, you haven't changed much." ”

Tan Jingxuan doesn't care about Pei Yuanjin's current age, he thinks that he is his own teacher, he is extremely respectful, yes, he has been brought up by Pei Yuanjin since he was a child, and his master is his father and teacher's cunzài, like a guiding lamp that cannot be climbed, he is the person he respects, admires and respects the most.

Fang learned that his master had been living in Yue Lingzong, Tan Jingxuan regretted his death now, he should have left the customs a few years earlier, and he also blamed himself, no one survived in the secret realm where his master went back then, he also thought that his master had no chance of surviving, he never thought that his master would also come to the earth world, and their master and apprentice reunited, and on the day of his birthday, double happiness came, it was a surprise and a surprise!

Tan Jingxuan has not lost his temper for many years, after losing his master, he has been mourning his master for a year, and he will cry like a fool every night, and now when he meets his master again, he can not cry to be strange: "Master, I, I didn't expect to meet you again......"

Pei Yuanjin's feelings are not as rich as Jingxuan, but he is naturally happy to meet his stupid apprentice again, but he habitually maintains that mystery and coldness in front of his apprentice, Pei Yuanjin did not express it, but his face was calm, and his heart was also calm, and he could survive even the problem of his life in the wind and waves, not to mention the reunion of master and apprentice.

Pei Yuanjin looked up at the apprentice who was taller and stronger than himself, and began to care about the apprentice's living conditions in the past few thousand years, his tone was not hurried, and said, "After I left, what happened to your senior brothers? Why don't you see your senior brother and them. "I happened to meet Pang Xie.

It stands to reason that Tan Jingxuan's birthday is so grand, as long as his senior brothers who protect their younger brothers and mad demons are there, they will definitely appear, even if they don't have people, there will be gifts to give to each other, and the gifts will not be light, and it is not the style of their teachers to be light and affectionate.

Speaking of the past, Tan Jingxuan's face was not very good, and he must have recalled a lot of unpleasantness.

The Taoist who talked about Jingxuan was wise and clever, and said: "Why don't we sit down and eat something first, and talk while eating, it is Yu Xi's idea for the master to wait here." Li Daxiong was very upright, and after confirming Pei Yuanjin's identity, he immediately changed his words.

Pei Yuanjin is not in a hurry, he has been in the earth world for ten years, and Tan Jingxuan has been talking to him for a long time, it is definitely not something that can be said in a few words, it is better to talk while eating.

Nodding, Pei Yuanjin said, "He asked me to wait here, I don't know when I will appear." ”

Li Daxiong said: "I am receiving guests at this time, and I may not appear for a while, so it is better for the master to have something to eat with Jingxuan first to pad his stomach, and then he can go to meet the guests later." ”

Pei Yuanjin said: "I won't go when I see guests, Xuan'er is going to go." ”

Tan Jingxuan is now in charge of seeing guests on his birthday, he is anxious to tell his master about what has happened to him in the past thousands of years, and the master seems to be in no hurry forever, and his anxious heart has calmed down.

Tan Jingxuan became a good disciple in seconds: "I listen to the master." ”

They were originally in the private rooms of the hotel, and the floor-to-ceiling windows just overlooked the entire colorful Drunken Dream Peak, and the location was very good. After a while, a waiter rushed in and served the delicacies.

Pei Yuanjin, who was sitting in the first seat, noticed Li Daxiong, the Taoist companion who talked about Jingxuan, that is, Yu Xi's master, and said, "Other things can be put aside for the time being, let's talk about how you got with Li Daoyou first, right?" ”

So straightforward, Tan Jingxuan glanced at Li Daxiong and said, "Master, I have only been with Nobita for five hundred years, and it was many years after you left. Three thousand years ago, our world was invaded by demons, and the upper realm knew that we could not resist it, so they evacuated everyone, our world was blown up and collapsed, and the demon's body and soul were also blown into powder, and everyone who was evacuated was assigned to various worlds, and I and Pang Xie came to the earth world. ”

"It took nearly a thousand years in the cultivation realm to resist demons and eliminate demons, and then, because of the elimination of demons, demon factors were left in the air, and these demon factors have changed the aura, and the cultivation methods of the entire cultivation realm have also changed, which is the cultivation mode you know now, but it will not have much impact on the monks who reached a certain level at that time, mainly because we have all participated in the demon war. After the cultivation method was changed, all the worlds in the cultivation realm were opened, and even the upper realm was opened to us, and if we wanted to become immortals, we didn't need to go through the thunderstorm. ”

Pei Yuanjin had a headache and sneered: "Could it be that you still need to take an exam to become an immortal now?" ”

Tan Jingxuan said with a smile: "What the master said is right, there needs to be an assessment and examination, but today's immortal world is different from the immortal world back then, in the past, the monks who went to the immortal realm were all for the purpose of cultivating the immortal body, but now there is no such order, becoming an immortal is just to assist in the management of the cultivation realm, that is, the mortal world's 'public servant of the people', a civil servant." Of course, there is still a certain difference between the civil servants of our immortal world and the civil servants of the mortal world. ”

Pei Yuanjin thought of Pang Xie's autobiography and the Pang Xie he saw: "I have seen Pang Xie, what is going on with him, has he become an immortal or not?" ”

Referring to Pang Xie, Tan Jingxuan couldn't help laughing: "Pang Xie became an immortal, he did go through the thunder tribulation back then, but later because of the existence of the demon factor, the upper realm and the cultivation realm have changed, and the status of the immortals has also changed, and the role they play is no longer high, and many immortals would rather return to the cultivation realm than become civil servants." Pang Xie was sent back to the cultivation realm because he had worked in the upper realm for ten consecutive years and failed the assessment. ”

When it came to the matter of cultivating the world, Tan Jingxuan answered everything, answered Pei Yuanjin very patiently, and told Pei Yuanjin everything he knew endlessly, looking anxious to show Xiàn, not looking like an uncle at all.

Li Daxiong, who was sitting on the side, listened to the sound of the Taoist couple gurgling like flowing water, and he also enjoyed it very much, and sent a cup of tea from time to time, of course, he didn't leave Pei Yuanjin's share, but now Pei Yuanjin doesn't drink much tea, according to Yu Xi's standards, at night, he can only drink milk and boiled water, and it is easy to fall asleep when drinking tea.

After hearing that Pang Xie was sent back to the cultivation realm, Pei Yuanjin had a sense of unreality, and he sighed: "Pang Xie's temperament is indeed not suitable for being a civil servant, but he still feels very embarrassed. "No matter how you say it, Pang Xie is also a person he knows, that guy still wanted to worship himself as a teacher, but he refused extremely facelessly, fortunately he made the right decision at the beginning.

Tan Jingxuan said: "It's better not to mention Pang Xie when the master sees him, he has changed his name to Pang Jie now." ”

Pei Yuanjin nodded, the corners of his mouth were slightly hooked, and said: "I've seen him, it's difficult to think about him or not, don't tell him that he has all the memories for the time being, maybe he will be ashamed to death." "It's definitely possible for Pang Xie, who has strong self-esteem, to do it, but I still want to see his expression when he learns that he knows what he's doing.

Talking about this, Li Daxiong's eldest disciple Zuo Bin sent him a message, and now he can attend, and the guests are basically there.

Tan Jingxuan wanted to continue chatting with Pei Yuanjin, but Pei Yuanjin stopped his behavior and said: "Let's talk here for the time being, I can't compare to the previous now, I still need to rest, you can get busy first." ”

Tan Jingxuan was ashamed and said, "It's the disciple who didn't think it through, Master, then I'll go out for a while and come back later." ”

Pei Yuanjin held the master's shelf and said, "Hmm." ”

Li Daxiong showed his loyalty in a timely manner: "Master, I asked Yu Xi to come in to accompany you." ”

Pei Yuanjin didn't refuse: "Yes." Also, you don't talk about my reincarnation to anyone for the time being, thank you. ”

Tan Jingxuan naturally does what he says, Li Daxiong's love husband madness will definitely not be leaked, if others know that Pei Yuanjin is the reincarnation of a certain ancestor, and they don't know how much sensation it will cause, at least the media in the cultivation world will rush to report it, and if Pei Yuanjin wants to get a peaceful life at that time, it is unlikely, and Tan Jingxuan will not put his master in trouble.

Li Daxiong said with a smile: "I don't deserve a word of thanks, I should be thanked, only with you will there be Jingxuan, and only then will there be our fate." ”

Pei Yuanjin replied to him: "Karma is destined." ”

Tan Jingxuan was dragged away by Li Daxiong in the end, he was still the same as before to Pei Yuanjin, every time he was reluctant, Pei Yuanjin silently stroked his forehead, which is why he was a little speechless about Tan Jingxuan, there are thousands of people, why do you still show an expression of sticky master.

Private gatherings are not allowed to take photos and videos, and after Tan Jingxuan left, Pei Yuanjin lay on the balcony railing to observe the banquet.

Tan Jingxuan deliberately did not mention the other disciples, something must have happened in the middle, Pei Yuanjin frowned.

When it comes to his own disciples, Pei Yuanjin doesn't receive much, just four, Tan Jingxuan is the last personal disciple he received, the first three disciples have their own merits in cultivation, if you want to say who is the most promising and smartest, of course, you have to count his eldest disciple Yu Yanxi, before he died, the cultivation of the eldest disciple was almost able to catch up with him. If he wants to say whose whereabouts he wants to know the most, it must be Yu Yanxi, the second disciple is a little cunning and knows how to protect himself, the third disciple is in retreat all the year round but he knows how to seek advantages and avoid disadvantages, and he is not too worried about both of them.

Yu Yanxi has been by his side for the longest time, he knows him the most as a person, and he still has an inexplicable persistence. Back then, every time he went out, Yu Yanxi would force him, the master, to report his safety, and send him a safety letter every time he went to a place, the eldest disciple was the most powerful, more than his master, and several of his disciples were not the master but the senior brother, which was also strange.

Looking back now, he probably understands the meaning behind the sentence that Tan Jingxuan didn't finish, back then, he gave Yu Yanxi a jade pendant, with a touch of his divine consciousness on it, if he destroyed that divine sense, it would disappear, if he was discovered by that child, he must be looking for himself everywhere, it is difficult to say whether Tan Jingxuan knew his whereabouts in the back, maybe he may fall in the "Demon War".

Among the four disciples, who is the most sticky master, Yu Yanxi ranks first, no one dares to rank second, he is even more than Tan Jingxuan.

When Yu Xi walked into the private room, he saw Pei Yuanjin's slightly lonely back, could it be that he didn't have to eat when he saw others eating delicious food, and he was in a bad mood?
