Chapter 257: It Seems Familiar
Bai Ruolin bit her lower lip tightly, and her eyes were firmly fixed on Liu Muxi's body. Even though she knew it wasn't right, she just couldn't control her eyes.
Because she stubbornly wanted to find out the difference between Liu Muxi and Venerable Liu, so as to prove that they were not the same person.
But she failed.
Although Liu Muxi has changed a lot, she can still be sure that they are the same person.
But how is this possible? Liu Muxi is the person she knows best, weak, harmless, almost cowardly, or born waste, how can she be Venerable Liu?
When Bai Ruolin first heard about this, she never believed it, otherwise, she wouldn't even tell her parents.
And the reason why her sister Bai Ruoshan will know is also because once she said that she leaked her mouth, but she didn't expect Bai Ruoshan to take it seriously, so she had the previous words.
But now, she can't lie to herself.
Whether she admits it or not, Liu Muxi is the world-famous Venerable Liu, the wife of the sect master of Xuantian Sect, and the great master of the late congenital stage.
When Bai Ruolin was in a daze, her sister beside her pulled her, making her have to come back to her senses.
What's wrong?
She looked at Bai Ruoshan with a little reproach.
Bai Ruoshan didn't see her blame, she only looked in the direction of Liu Muxi excitedly and said, "Sister, look, is that Venerable Liu?" ”
Because of Liu Muxi's appearance, there was a wave of sound in the square, and Bai Ruoshan's exclamations were mixed in it, and it was not eye-catching.
Without waiting for Bai Ruolin to answer, she said in amazement and admiration: "She must be Venerable Liu, besides her, who else has a cinnabar mole and looks so beautiful?" Sister, do you think so? ”
Bai Ruolin could only smile reluctantly and nodded, not to mention how uncomfortable she was.
Even her father took the opportunity to give her a meaningful look and told her not to forget to please Liu Muxi.
Bai Ruolin's face froze.
Thankfully, the commotion quickly subsided, as everyone remembered what the occasion was.
Sure enough, after another Qingyue bell rang, everyone saw Mu Shengqiu wearing a white-background silver-rimmed robe, holding a whisk in his hand, slowly walking from the red carpet at the end of the square, followed by two True Transmission disciples behind him.
One of them is still the younger brother of Liu Muxi, and the most surprising thing is that he is now also in the early stage of the congenital realm.
The other person is another Taoist boy named Xianmao, who is also in the realm of the Great Perfection of the Day After Tomorrow.
Liu Muxi first saw Mu Shengqiu, and then saw the medicine, Liu Muxi was still more concerned about this younger brother of his own people.
It's just that in the past, Shi Yao has always been an errand in front of the former head of Huayang Zhenren, and he was also accepted as a disciple, although he is not a personal disciple, but he also has the status of master and apprentice, of course, he was also selected as a true disciple.
Liu Muxi and Huayang Zhenren don't have a very deep intersection, and she often travels, and the medicine servant is also busy with retreat and cultivation, so when the two don't see each other much, the relationship will inevitably fade a little.
Especially, after she completely offended Huayang Zhenren, the situation of the two became more and more embarrassing, in order not to make it difficult to serve the medicine, Liu Muxi also maintained a certain gap with the waiter, it was not good to be too close and too far.
The qualifications of serving medicine are already good, and he is diligent in cultivation, Liu Muxi has long known that he will definitely break through to the innate realm.
This time back, Liu Muxi also went to visit Huayang Zhenren, both of them said a few words politely, Liu Muxi said goodbye and left, during which he did not see the waiter, and felt a little regretful at the time, but he didn't expect that the waiter returned to the senior brother and broke through the ingenital, which made Liu Muxi surprised at the same time, but also happy for the waiter.
With a smile on his lips, Mu Shengqiu walked over without squinting, and then climbed the stairs and went up to the platform in front of the main hall, where there stood an old man with crane hair and a childish face, looking at him with a smile, it was none other than Mu Shengqiu's mentor, the former head of the teaching, Huayang Zhenren.
Huayang Zhenren is really happy for his apprentice.
If he abdicated at the beginning, there was still a trace of unwillingness or worry, and now the last trace of unwillingness in his heart has also disappeared.
In the past year, he has seen the changes that have taken place in the sect, and his disciples are indeed stronger than him.
He can be the head of a second-rate sect, but to be the head of a first-class sect, it is a little inadequate, his ability is not enough for him to open up the territory for the sect, and move forward through obstacles, he is too cautious, thinks too much, shrinks his hands, and cannot lead the sect to glory at all.
Moreover, he is old, he has long lost his enterprising spirit, and he has been negligent to the sect a lot, and has made a lot of mistakes.
In the past year, what he has done the most is to observe all the orders and actions of Mu Shengqiu after taking charge of the sect, from the initial worry and distrust, to the final relief and pride, he recognized Mu Shengqiu at the same time, but also reflected on himself, and finally knew his own shortcomings and shortcomings, as well as the fatal mistakes he made.
For example, in order to recruit more disciples, he relaxed the test of the disciples' hearts, and as a result, these new disciples almost caused a split in the Puji Concept, but fortunately, the time was short, and there was still time to deal with it.
It is precisely because of this that his feelings for Nangong Ziyan have faded, but he still feels a little heartache about the destruction of her qualifications, but fortunately, Pang Qian's arrival made up for his regrets.
This year, Mu Shengqiu did extremely well, much better than his master.
At the beginning, the reason why he was reluctant to immediately hold an enthronement ceremony with Mu Shengqiu was also because he was afraid that he would be too young and not do well, and he would be able to take back the position of head of the sect at that time.
Now that he has no such concerns, it is time for Mu Shengqiu to ascend to the position of head of the sect.
Mu Shengqiu walked in front of the master, slowly knelt down, and bowed deeply.
Huayang Zhenren controlled his emotions and began to solemnly read out the rules of the sect.
The door rules of Puji Temple are very long, and there are hundreds of them in total.
But to sum up, it is unity and fraternity, no cannibalism, no medical practice to save people, no medical skills for profiteering, no death without saving, as a teacher, follow to lead by example, not mixed with selfishness, everything is based on the overall situation, and so on.
In the end, Huayang Zhenren began to hand over the token of the Sect to Mu Shengqiu.
Storage rings, dusting, and a book of sect rules, these are just superficial things, in fact, there are other valuable things, and there is no need to take them out at such a time.
For example, the secret room key, exercises, and so on, which only the master knows.
After Mu Shengqiu solemnly thanked the master, he also had to thank heaven and earth, and go to the ancestral hall to meet the spiritual positions of the previous masters.
By this time, Mu Shengqiu's enthronement ceremony was almost complete.
It was a very boring thing, but from the beginning to the end, no one showed impatience, and they all looked serious.
A series of procedures down, the day is already halfway over.
Fortunately, in the huge living room, a banquet has been prepared to entertain the guests.
At this time, everyone has a chance to speak.
Mu Shengqiu sat in the first seat, first expressed his gratitude to everyone who had come thousands of miles to watch the ceremony, and said a polite remark that made people not jump out of any way, although it was very formal, but it could make people feel valued.
Everyone said that they did not dare to do so, and said that they were very honored to do so.
Mu Shengqiu also specially paid tribute to Zheng Renying and Elder Taishang, the young masters of the Zixiao Sword Sect and the Zixiao Sword Sect, and other sects or families that have always been good friends with Pujiguan have also been looked at differently by Mu Shengqiu, and even in recent years, the Zhong family of Pingzhao Mansion, which has taken the initiative to make friends with Pujiguan, and the Su family of Tongcheng of Jinming Mansion, have been personally entertained by Mu Shengqiu.
Although the Pingzhao Mansion where the Zhong family is located belongs to the jurisdiction of the Zixiao Sword Sect, the Zhong family has always been independent, and its strength is so strong that it is not inferior to the first-class sect. It's a pity that the Zhong family has never been good friends with anyone.
However, since Liu Muxi saved the head of the Zhong family, the Zhong family and Pujiguan have begun to get along. This time, Zhong Mingqi, the young master of the Zhong family, who is also the real ruler of the Zhong family, personally came to the Puji Temple to watch the ceremony, which is enough to see the Zhong family's attitude towards the Puji Temple.
This made other sects and families envious.
Especially the Lu family in the Sword City of Phoenix Mansion, their eyes were red with jealousy for a long time.
At the beginning, Mrs. Lu was seriously ill, and Liu Muxi and Fairy Mengzhu took action to treat her condition, but she treated her life-saving benefactor coldly, which led to an unhappy breakup.
Even if she regrets it in the future, she will not have a chance to repair her relationship with Liu Muxi again. If she hadn't had this attitude at the beginning, maybe the Lu family would have been able to catch the line of Pujiguan. Who knew that the Puji Temple would be created again!
If they had known that Pujiguan would actually leap into the dragon gate, and if they went further, they would definitely have a good relationship with Pujiguan.
It's too late to say anything.
Liu Muxi was also present, and there were many people around her, but those who dared to come forward to say hello were all people she knew well, or friends, and others hindered her cultivation and status, so they didn't dare to disturb even if they had the heart to step forward.
An Changqing's position is relatively biased, after all, the relationship between their An family and Pujiguan has always been relatively cold, of course, there is no preferential treatment.
An Changqing looked at Liu Muxi, who was like the stars holding the moon, and a gloom flashed in his eyes.
If Mu Li is still there, where is Liu Muxi's turn to be arrogant?
It's only strange that Liu Muxi was too cunning, and deliberately destroyed Mu Li's ring, so that Mu Li was forced to appear, and also exposed the space ring, which is still missing.
It's just that she is still so lucky, she actually hooked up with the sect master of Xuantian Sect, and since then she has ascended to heaven and become a world-famous legend.
And his Mu Li doesn't know whether he is alive or dead.
The more beautiful Liu Muxi was, the more uncomfortable An Changqing felt in his heart, but he was helpless against her.
An Changqing was in a heavy mood, and he didn't eat vegetables, but just drank cup after cup to save it.
"What? Do you have a crush on her? Shisu whispered into An Changqing's ear and asked.
"Fancy her? What a joke! An Changqing sneered, how could he look at this kind of femme fatale, cold-blooded and ruthless sinister woman?
"Then why do you keep looking at her? Don't you think she's more beautiful than me? Shiso said with a little resentment.
An Changqing frowned, looked back at Zisu, but was shocked to find that Zisu was becoming more and more beautiful and attractive, and people couldn't wait to immediately hold her in his arms and love her, fortunately he remembered what place this was, Fang endured it, just relaxed his tone, and said, "How can she compare with you?" It's just that she has a grudge against me, I just want to kill her immediately, how can I think she is beautiful? ”
Zi Su was satisfied, and he didn't ask if there was any hatred between them, as long as he heard the answer.
Even she has to admit that Liu Muxi is indeed beautiful enough, but it doesn't stop there, because she feels that she is more beautiful than her, and Liu Muxi just took advantage of a big name.
No, doesn't An Changqing like her, but don't like Liu Muxi?
Thinking about her like this, Zi Su rolled his eyes, and suddenly saw that away from what they didn't want you, a woman in orange stood up, who was the person who said that she knew Liu Muxi before.
Zi Su was a little interested, could it be that she really knew Liu Muxi, it was really interesting.
You know, her master is very interested in everything about Liu Muxi!
I don't know, where did Liu Muxi get such a great blessing that the master valued.
Because of this, she paid a little more attention to Ruolin.
An Changqing also saw Bai Ruolin's movements, but a trace of mockery flashed on his face.
There were many people who paid attention to Bai Ruolin, and when she stood up and walked towards Liu Muxi, there was a moment of silence in the hall.
Bai Ruolin also noticed everyone's gaze, with a trace of embarrassment and inexplicable pride in her heart.
Growing up, how could she ever be so eye-catching?
What's more, the people in this hall are not ordinary people.
The reason is just because she is familiar with Liu Muxi.
A trace of excitement rose in Bai Ruolin's heart, and at this moment, the embarrassment in her heart seemed to have disappeared, but she felt that there was nothing wrong with having a friend like Liu Muxi, at least she could bring great benefits to herself.
She could even imagine how those people would behave themselves and how beautiful the Bai family would be after Liu Muxi recognized her as a friend.
Thinking of this, the resistance in her heart to the matter of Liu Muxi finally got better.
Despite thinking about it, her face was still indifferent, she had long been accustomed to using this expression to hide her true thoughts, but the eagerness and excitement in her eyes revealed a trace of her emotions.
Liu Muxi had already seen Bai Ruolin, but she was still silent, because she wanted to see what Bai Ruolin, who had always been arrogant, wanted to do.
Bai Ruolin was still very confident that Liu Muxi would remember her, so as soon as she walked over, she directly said in a cold voice: "Sister Liu, I haven't seen you for a long time." ”
The attitude is still that high-minded appearance, which makes outsiders seem as if she is talking to Liu Muxi in condescension.
Seeing her despise Venerable Liu so much, some people were angry, some people were stunned, and some people watched the show.
Liu Muxi didn't seem to hear it, just put down his chopsticks, picked up the handkerchief and wiped the corners of his mouth.
Bai Ruolin's face suddenly froze.
"Senior Sister Muxi, is this your friend?" Mengzhu Fairy sat with Liu Muxi, and couldn't help but ask curiously when she saw this. However, her impression of Bai Ruolin is not very good, no matter whether she is really arrogant or falsely arrogant, when facing a martial artist whose cultivation and status are higher than herself, she should put down her innocence and show a certain amount of respect and seniority.
Unless the two are friends, relatives or close sisters, they will not see each other like this. But obviously Bai Ruolin is not.
Because she had never heard Senior Sister Liu talk about this person.
Hearing Senior Sister Mengzhu's words, Liu Muxi glanced up at Bai Ruolin.
Bai Ruolin still looked at Liu Muxi "indifferently", but the eagerness and dissatisfaction in her eyes accidentally overflowed.
Who is she unhappy with? That's a lot of guts.
Many people snorted coldly in their hearts.
"It seems familiar." Liu Muxi looked at Bai Ruolin carefully, and then said.
Sound familiar?
When everyone heard this, they immediately understood what was going on, and the eyes that looked at Bai Ruolin changed from envy to ridicule.
They thought she was Venerable Liu's handkerchief before, but they didn't expect that people didn't know her at all.
It's a little familiar, I'm afraid it's just that Venerable Liu doesn't want to embarrass her too much.
Listening to her familiar tone and arrogant attitude just now, I thought she was really Venerable Liu's friend! Pretending to be like it!
However, if she is so bold, isn't she afraid of offending Venerable Liu?
Bai Ruolin didn't have the heart to pay attention to other people's eyes, she just widened her eyes in disbelief.
What did she say? Sound familiar?
No kidding.
At the beginning, when she went to Shangguan Mansion to play, Liu Muxi still remembered the scene of hospitality to her, even if she treated her coldly to her, she still smiled, she didn't dare to be angry at all, and she flattered herself everywhere.
Although a few years have passed, they have been together for a long time, how can she not remember herself?
"Sister Liu, take a closer look, I'm Bai Ruolin of the Bai family! When I went to stay at Shangguan's house, you personally entertained me, and you were very attentive to me and took good care of me, don't you remember all this? Bai Ruolin asked excitedly, her face flushed.
Now, she doesn't care about whether she is tall or not.
She only knew that she had to make Liu Muxi recognize herself and become friends with her again.
She has now accepted the fact that Liu Muxi is Venerable Liu, and of course she has to use this matter to seek benefits for herself.
She understands very well how much benefit it will be to become friends with Liu Muxi, not to mention that the Bai family will benefit from this, even if it is not impossible for the two sisters to join the Puji Temple.
Hearing Bai Ruolin mention the Shangguan family, many people's expressions changed slightly, and they looked at Liu Muxi's expression cautiously, and secretly scolded Bai Ruolin for having no brains, and actually mentioned the Shangguan family in front of Venerable Liu, isn't this adding to Venerable Liu?
In fact, they all thought too much, the Shangguan family couldn't shake Liu Muxi's emotions now, and Liu Muxi really didn't care about the Shangguan family at all.
"Oh, I remembered. It turned out to be a white girl. Liu Muxi was guided with a hint of understanding, as if he had just remembered Bai Ruolin, but his tone was very cold.
"Yes, Sister Liu, I am Bai Ruolin." Bai Ruolin didn't see it, and hurriedly nodded and said.
As soon as he finished speaking, he realized that he looked too eager, so he quickly adjusted his expression, regained his coldness, and said lightly: "I'm sorry, because I just met Sister Liu, I was so excited, so I lost my temper." ”
Even if she wants to be good friends with Liu Muxi, she must not be able to let go of her figure, she wants an equal friend relationship, not a relationship between superiors and subordinates.
