Lin Jun, who returned to Zizhumen, still behaved very low-key, going up the mountain every day to chop and chop firewood. Externally, he showed a kind of appearance, as long as he could stay in the inner door, even if he did drudgery. It's just that Lin Jun didn't dare to enter the deep mountains, he could avoid the pursuit of Deacon Liu, but he couldn't escape the assassination of Steward Zhao, the peak master of forging bodies, so he only cut down some unattended wild trees not too far from the inner gate of Zizhu Gate.

Lin Jun seemed to be overly worried, Deacon Liu's disappearance made Steward Zhao a little uneasy, there were many deacons in the inner door of Zizhumen, and these deacons were running errands for the stewards to put it bluntly, so one of the deacons had not been seen for many days, and it did not attract the attention of the inner door.

After finishing the work at hand, Lin Jun, who returned to the warehouse, began to practice his "Blazing Flame Sutra" diligently. The great difference between this cultivation and the past is that Lin Jun is now not short of Qi Replenishing Pills.

According to the past practice of cultivation, the Qi Replenishing Pill requires the disciple to swallow it and then slowly refine it when he is practicing the internal exercises, so that the pure breath released by it is accepted by the body. As for the length of refining time, it varies from person to person. If you have better talent, you can do it in one or two days, and if you have less talent, you can't do it in ten days and half a month. However, Lin Jun found that after cultivating the "Blazing Flame Sutra", after swallowing the Qi Replenishing Pill, the dantian would release several streams of heat, surrounding the Qi Replenishing Pill, and it only took a few hours to absorb all the pure breath released by the Qi Replenishing Pill, and then, the dantian released a stronger and purer power again, using this power to do a small Zhou Tian cycle in the meridians, and the internal force exercise improved very quickly.

Under the urging of the Qi Replenishing Pill, in just four or five days, Lin Jun's internal force technique had been upgraded by one level, reaching the level of the sixth layer of the forging body, and it was still improving. Lin Jun felt that if he continued to cultivate like this, it wouldn't take long for his cultivation to reach the level of the seventh layer of the forging body.

After a few autumn rains, the purple bamboo gate is shrouded in a hazy smoke and rain, like a fairyland on earth.

On a mountain road leading to the inner gate of Zizhu Gate, a group of people walked up the steps along the mountain road, the rain had already washed this mountain road completely paved with bluestone, and the people walking on the mountain road were also brightly dressed and spotless.

The leader was a twelve or thirteen-year-old boy, who wore a silk brocade robe with the color of the sea and sky, and a jade belt wrapped around his waist, which was decorated with colorful gems, showing his noble status as a rich son.

The young man looked above the top, held his head high, and marched on the mountain road.

Behind him, a middle-aged man about forty years old, also wearing a brocade robe, but with a somewhat fat figure, trotted all the way, followed closely, and said as he walked: "Xian'er, you are about to become a disciple of the inner sect of Zizhumen, this is a matter of honoring the ancestors." For this matter, it took no effort to beg grandpa to sue grandma for his father. After you enter the inner gate of Zizhu Gate, your father has also arranged everything, and the master and the steward will take special care of you, so you can practice here with peace of mind, and if you succeed in cultivation in the future, your father will be able to follow you. ”

The young man said without looking back: "Daddy, don't worry, my son is full of confidence, and he will definitely not let you down." I will definitely return to my hometown and glorify my ancestors. ”

Listening to his son's words, tears overflowed from the corners of the fat man's happy eyes.

The footsteps of the march became more sonorous and powerful, looking at the mountain gate that was getting closer and closer halfway up the mountain, as if a gate that could get ahead was about to open to them.

This fat man is none other than Ding Yuanwai in Yuzhou City, and the young man walking in front of him is his son Ding Shixian.

Behind them, there were more than a dozen family members, some of them carrying large wooden boxes, some carrying large packages with thick brown wool mats, soft silk brocade quilts, all kinds of clothes, and a large pile of daily necessities. In addition to this, there are a lot of delicacies brought from Yuzhou City. People who don't know the details, how do they know that they are here to learn art, and they think it is a big move.

The group happily and energetically came to the gate of the inner gate of Zizhu Gate. The outer gates of the Zizhu Gate are scattered and scattered in the vast area at the foot of the mountain, so there is no decent mountain gate. Only the inner gate can be called the strict jurisdiction of Zizhu Gate and the real territory.

The mountain gate of the inner gate is built on the mountainside, red bricks and blue tiles, plus bluestone base to build, more than ten zhang long, four zhang high, two zhang wide, magnificent, upright and towering. In front of the door, two huge stone lions spread their teeth and claws, declaring the majesty of this place.

There are two inner deacons with a few disciples guarding here, Ding Yuanwai and his son have just appeared in front of the gate, and are expecting someone to come out to greet them, but unexpectedly, they were reprimanded by a tall and strong deacon standing in front of the gate: "Where did the madman come from? ”

Ding Yuanwai thought that he had an appointment with Steward Zhao in advance, and he came today, everything was ready, so in the face of the other party's reprimand, he was not afraid, and took a few steps forward and said: "This brother, it was Steward Zhao who asked us to come, and there is a waist card here, and he said that as long as he handed over the waist card, he would let us in." What we are coming, Steward Zhao has explained it to you, let's go in, my son is still in a hurry to learn art. ”

After that, Ding Yuanwai handed the deacon waist card that Lin Jun gave him to the deacon standing in front of him.

There are many deacons in Zizhumen, and Deacon Liu is a second-class deacon, and his status is not as good as that of the first-class deacon in front of him. Now Ding Yuanwai is holding Deacon Liu's waist card in front of his eyes, and he is arrogant to let him in, and the first-class deacon standing in front of the mountain gate will hand over the waist card "snap" to the ground, and it will fall into several pieces.

The deacon shouted, "Come, take down these fanatics for me." ”

With an order, more than a dozen strong young disciples rushed out of the mountain gate, these disciples were all middle-level disciples of the inner gate of the Zizhu Gate, and all the exercises were cultivated above the eighth layer of the Forging Body Realm.

Seeing that the situation was not good, Ding Yuan begged for mercy again and again: "My lord, my lord, spare my life, you probably misunderstood, it is indeed Steward Zhao who asked us to come, a few days ago, he also specially sent Deacon Liu to our house to let us come today." ”

The deacon asked, "What did you come and do?"

Ding Yuanwai replied: "Learn from a teacher." My son has been recorded as an inner disciple here, so let's come to the mountain gate today to learn from the teacher. ”

At this time, Steward Li, who was following behind Ding Yuanwai, said: "Master, the situation is wrong, we weren't deceived by the surname Zhao, right?"

The youngest son who was pressed to the ground also said, "Dad, something must be wrong." We're not fooled, are we?"

"What?" When Ding Yuanwai heard this, he immediately became angry, and said angrily: "This Zhao steward took so much money from me, and he dared to lie to me and not give me anything." Okay, now that we're here today. I'm going to sue him, I'm going to the elders to sue him. ”

The vast area of the outer gate of the Zizhu Gate is open to the outside world, and most of the disciples of the outer gate are engaged in manual labor and serve the inner gate. Many outer disciples simply started a family here, got married, and had children, similar to the local people.

Ding Yuan's fuss in front of the inner gate immediately attracted many outer disciples to come and watch, and many disciples in the inner gate also heard the movement. However, there are rules in the inner gate, and the inner disciples are not allowed to go out at will, so the inner disciples gather at the gate of the mountain and look out.

The deacons on duty here saw that the matter was getting bigger and bigger, and there were more and more onlookers, lest it affect the reputation of Zizhumen.

There are many stewards in Zizhumen, and he knows that he does some opportunistic things to enrich his own pockets on weekdays. These stewards have received the benefits, and do not dare to completely monopolize them, and will more or less give some of them to some of the elders in the door to seek refuge.

So when he encountered such a thing, the deacon also wanted to settle things as soon as possible, so he immediately sent someone to invite Steward Zhao.

Deacon Liu didn't show up for several days, which made Steward Zhao extremely depressed, and he didn't know where this person went?

Steward Zhao never expected Lin Jun to have the ability to kill Deacon Liu, so in the past few days, he has been wondering where his henchman Deacon Liu has gone?

Suddenly, when he heard that Ding Yuanwai came to the door with his son and a large group of servants, Steward Zhao hurriedly greeted him in a panic.

When I came to the gate of the mountain, I saw that Ding Yuanwai's family was all pressed to the ground one by one, looking extremely embarrassed. Steward Zhao hurriedly said: "Misunderstanding, misunderstanding, let them go quickly." There is indeed a misunderstanding here, let them go. ”

The deacon guarding the door looked at Steward Zhao with a contemptuous gaze, and said impatiently: "Let them go, you let them go quickly, don't be embarrassed here." ”

In order not to make the matter big and make it known to everyone, Steward Zhao took Ding Yuanwai and others to the bottom of the mountain, trying to stay away from everyone's eyes.

As Steward Zhao walked, he whispered to Ding Yuanwai to inquire about the situation.

Ding Yuanwai told Steward Zhao in detail about Deacon Liu's personal visit, although he said it in detail, he would never have expected that Deacon Liu was pretended by Lin Jun.

Ding Yuanwai said: "When Deacon Liu left, I gave him five hundred taels of gold and five thousand taels of silver, and asked him to hand them over to the adults, and the adults received them." Deacon Liu asked us to come today, and when we talk about the mountain gate, someone will greet us. Who would have thought that this would happen, Lord Zhao, there can't be some mistake, right? Can my son still enter the inner gate as a disciple?"
