Shangguan Hongyuan said with a smile: "I've seen the senior brother in charge, what are you doing here?" There should be no big deal now, right? ”

Dao Zhai looked at Shangguan Hongyuan and said, "What did you do?" If it weren't for you for so long, why should we be here to discuss? ”

At this time, everyone in the house all stared at Shangguan Hongyuan, who had been out for a year without any sound training, no wonder everyone was in a hurry.

"Hey, what is this little doll...?" The one who spoke was a middle-aged man, who looked like he was only in his thirties, and it was Dao Hao of the "Pure Heart Sect".

Shangguan Hongyuan smiled: "Hehe, how is it?" What about the qualifications, you always say that my vision is not good, this time, how? ”

Liu Qi has been standing behind Shangguan Hongyuan, and when everyone heard Shangguan Hongyuan's words, they all watched Liu Qi, and it was the first time that Liu Qi was watched by so many people. For a while, Liu Qi was also a little nervous.

After looking at it for a while, he said: "It's really good, the qualifications are already superior, and I think my cultivation will definitely be successful." ”

Dao Zhai nodded and said, "Well, where did you find it?" ”

Shangguan Hongyuan looked at the envious eyes of everyone, and was a little fluttery for a while, and said: "Hehe, I give him three taels of silver every month, and he is willing to worship me as a teacher." After speaking, Shangguan Hongyuan froze, he was happy for a while, but he told the truth.

Dao Zhai looked at Shangguan Hongyuan helplessly, and the rest of the people smiled one after another, even the woman who had always had a cold face and elegant manners had already pulled the corners of her mouth at this time.

Shangguan Hongyuan's face was red, he glared at Liu Qi, and said, "Hehe, this stupid boy somehow let him worship me as a teacher but he didn't want to, he didn't want me to give him money." ”

Dao Zhai shook his head, looked at Liu Qi, and said, "Little doll, are you willing to cultivate yourself?" Why do you have to ask for money to cultivate? ”

Liu Qi blinked, grabbed his head, and said, "I don't understand, as long as the master gives me money, I will definitely cultivate well." ”

Dao Yuan asked, "Then why do you have to ask for silver?" Do you know that there are many things that are better than silver? ”

Liu Qi shook his head, his eyes were gloomy, and his expression was a little depressed, and said, "I want to buy food and take it back to the people in the village." Liu Qi didn't want to talk about the past, and he didn't want to say anything about his parents, so if he took it back to the village, his parents naturally had a share.

Dao Ji said: "It's rare, it's rare, it's so young, but you have such a kind heart, it must be unlimited in the future." ”

Dao Zhai nodded and said, "Yes, little doll, where is your home?" ”

Liu Qi said honestly: "Zizhugou." ”

Dao Qin's whole body was shocked, and he looked at Liu Qi with complicated eyes.

Daojin said: "There is already the edge of Shenzhou, although it is better than the wild land, but it is surrounded by mountains, there is miasma in the mountains all the year round, few people go there, occasionally only merchants go there, but there is a kind of purple bamboo growing on the mountain, so the purple bamboo ditch is named." ”

Dao Zhai looked at Liu Qi and asked, "Little doll, are you willing to worship me as a teacher?" ”

Shangguan Hongyuan immediately refused: "Senior brother, he is my apprentice, how can you be like this?" ”

Dao Zhai smiled: "Don't worry, the little doll hasn't said it yet." ”

Everyone looked at Liu Qi, Liu Qi grabbed his head and said, "I don't want it, I still have to follow the master." ”

Dao Zhai was stunned for a moment, and then asked, "Why is this?" ”

Liu Qi said: "The master gave me money, but you didn't give money." ”

Dao Zhai shook his head and said, "What a child, junior brother, you can go back too, junior sister has been waiting for you for a long time." ”

Shangguan Hongyuan nodded, coped, grabbed Liu Qi and ran out. One is afraid that someone will beat Liu Qi's idea, and the other is that he is afraid that everyone will make fun of him, accept apprentices and bribe him with money, and accidentally say it himself, so embarrassing, why don't you run away?

In addition to the head of the "Qingxin Sect", there are eight elders, each of whom is in charge of a peak, namely "Luozhu Peak" Dao, "Jishi Peak" Daojin, "Sun Moon Peak" Daoji, "Yunguang Peak" Dao Hao, "Longshou Peak" Shangguan Hongyuan, "Qixia Peak" Daoyuan, "Red Feather Peak" Daoqin, and "Half Moon Peak" Daoming. Eight people, eight peaks, surround the main peak, and protect the foundation of the Pure Heart Sect. Although the Pure Heart Sect has an advantage over one faction, who knows if anyone will join forces? When I saw this place, I decided to establish the "Pure Heart Sect" here.

Shangguan Hongyuan took Liu Qi out of the "Qingxin Palace", and regardless of the two little Taoist priests who greeted him, he grabbed Liu Qi and disappeared above the main peak with a red light.

Shangguan Hongyuan took Liu Qi and flew to the front peak in a short time, the peak is called "Longshou Peak", which is the first barrier of the entire Qingxin Sect, and Longshou Peak is in charge of Shangguan Hongyuan. At this time, because Shangguan Hongyuan was arrogant and had bad qualifications, he did not accept apprentices, and finally accepted four apprentices, but he wanted everyone to laugh at him.

Longshou Peak is not as luxurious as the rest of the peaks, among the peaks, a courtyard, the gate of the courtyard is a little dirty, there is a giant tree in the courtyard, opposite the giant tree, is the hall, usually everyone eats, the place to entertain guests, on both sides of the hall, two rows of houses, in addition, the whole mountain top is nothing.

On the threshold of the ruined gate sat a young woman, about thirty years old, with smooth skin, her hair shy, willow leaves and bent eyebrows, a pair of watery eyes staring into the distance, the worry between her eyebrows, obvious opinions.

Suddenly, the young woman was stunned, and suddenly there were multiple fairy swords in her hands, and the young woman stood up, picked up the fairy sword and slashed at the rushing red light. In the light, Liu Qi screamed in fright. It turned out that inside the red light, it was Shangguan Hongyuan and Liu Qi, and the young woman sitting on the threshold was Shangguan Hongyuan's wife Ruan Yingyu.

Ruan Yingyu was stunned when she heard Liu Qi's voice before she paused. How can Ruan Yingyu not be angry? Shangguan Hongyuan didn't even say a word when he left, and it was a year since he left, and if he didn't know, he thought that Shangguan Hongyuan had been mutilated.

Ruan Yingyu's voice was like a fairy sound, and her words were cold, and she said, "Are you still willing to come back?" ”

Shangguan Hongyuan said in a flattering voice: "Yingyu, isn't your husband back?" If they hadn't laughed at me, how would I have gone out? Look, the newly accepted apprentice is called Liu Qi. The light dissipated, Shangguan Hongyuan explained.

Ruan Yingyu was stunned for a moment, and then asked, "You went out for a year, just to accept an apprentice?" ”

Shangguan Hongyuan smiled: "Yes, I only met this kid when I came back." asked him to worship me as a teacher, but he was unwilling, and finally promised him to give him three taels of silver a month, and he agreed. ”

Ruan Yingyu smiled, shook her head and said: "The dignified Pure Heart Sect, the first seat of Longshou Mountain, but using such means to accept disciples? If your master knew, he would have been angry. Come here, let the master take a look. ”

Liu Qi obediently walked over and shouted, "Hello, teacher." Standing in front of Ruan Yingyu, let him look at it.

Shangguan Hongyuan smiled self-deprecatingly and said, "You go find a room for him, and I'll call those guys." ”

Ruan Yingyu nodded, and then led Liu Qi forward, while Shangguan Hongyuan went to find a few other apprentices.

Under the sky, the white clouds are long, above the mountain peaks, the ancient trees are towering, and the courtyard is quiet and abnormal.

In the hall, a long table was placed in the middle, and on either side of the table, two long chairs, in front of and behind the table, two chairs were placed in it, obviously for the use of people of honorable status.

On the chairs, Shangguan Hongyuan and Ruan Yingyu sat in it, and on the benches on both sides, there were six people, five men and one woman, and Liu Qi was at the end.

When Shangguan Hongyuan looked at the four people in front of him, he shook his head and sighed, and when he saw the last two, he showed a satisfied smile.

"This is your little junior brother, called Liu Qi, who was accepted as a disciple when the teacher went out. When you have nothing to do, you are not allowed to disturb his cultivation. "Shangguan Hongyuan introduced Liu Qi in front, and then he became an instructor.

"Yes, master." Everyone nodded obediently.

Shangguan Hongyuan continued: "These are your senior brothers, the eldest Peng Feiyu, the second Fang Shuiyou, the third son, Xiao Qiong, this is the master's daughter, Shangguan Xirou." ”

Liu Qi didn't dare to look at the girl next to him, the girl was only two years older than Liu Qi, but the temperament of the girl was not comparable to Liu Qi, what is the aura, what is lively and cute, what is natural beauty, no words to describe this girl are too much. Dressed in fiery red clothes, long hair tied up with a red rope, big eyes, immature skin, two dimples on the face, a chicken and a phoenix, it is a portrayal of the two.

Liu Qi lowered his head and said, "Senior brother, senior sister is good." ”

Shangguan Xirou didn't even look at Liu Qi, how could a person like this who was black, stupid, and incapable of being able to enter Miss Shangguan's eyes?

Shangguan Hongyuan said: "Our Qingxin Sect cultivates the Three Extremes Xuanqing Jue, although you are a little older, but you have better qualifications, and you should get twice the result with half the effort when you cultivate, the Three Extremes Xuanqing Jue is divided into three realms, namely Shangqing, Yuqing, and Taiqing. ”

Shangguan Hongyuan paused, took a sip of tea and continued: "Each realm is divided into nine layers, and people with ordinary qualifications, with all their life's strength, can only reach the fourth layer of Shangqing. Ordinary people are the first layer in three years, the second layer in five years, the third layer in seven years, and the fourth layer in ten years. ”

Liu Qi lowered his head and whispered, "Master, what realm have you reached?" ”

Shangguan Hongyuan sighed and said: "The road of cultivation is endless, remember not to give up lightly, as a teacher, you can only go to Yuqing, in the vast land of Shenzhou, how many talented people can't break through the realm of Shangqing after exhausting their life's strength." ”

Liu Qi was stunned for a moment, looked up at Shangguan Hongyuan, Shangguan Hongyuan suddenly looked at Liu Qi with a smile, and said, "But the master believes that you can break through Shangqing and go to the endless path of cultivation." ”

Liu Qi's heart jumped, and he nodded seriously and said, "Master, I know." ”

Shangguan Hongyuan smiled and didn't say anything. Ruan Yingyu was also shocked in her heart, Shangguan Hongyuan was arrogant, this was definitely the first time in his life that he said it, Shangguan Hongyuan did not have such confidence in himself, but he said this to a child who had just cultivated, I have to say that Shangguan Hongyuan has high expectations and confidence in Liu Qi.

Ruan Yingyu smiled: "Okay, you can't skip dinner with any bold words, right?" The third and fourth children, let's go cook. ”

Zishushu was stunned for a moment, and then asked, "Master, isn't it the youngest?" Little Liu'er is here, why do you still let us do it? ”

Shangguan Hongyuan slapped the table and said, "If you cultivate hard, I will cook for you." ”

"Whoosh... "Whoosh" twice, the two figures ran out, Liu Qi was stunned, looking at the disappeared backs of the two in a daze.

"Master, is cultivation hard? Why did my brother run away? Liu Qi asked suspiciously.

Ruan Yingyu looked at the two who had escaped, shook her head and said, "They... Hey, you'll find out for yourself later. ”

Then, there was no sound of speech in the hall, only the sound of Shangguan Xirou fiddling with the cup in her hand, Liu Qi didn't dare to look at Shangguan Xirou, but secretly looked at her with her spare eyes, and when she watched, Liu Qi felt that her heart was beating fast. Ignorant children don't know what love is, they only know that the other party is good-looking, and knowing her may already be a kind of happiness.

At dinner, Liu Qi drooled, looking at the food on the table, the green vegetables, the fragrant pork ribs, the fragrant and delicious fish soup, five years is not as good as today's meal.

Although the food is delicious, Liu Qi still knows some rules, the master and the master haven't started yet, how can they eat first? Shangguan Hongyuan is particularly abnormal today, and I don't know if he deliberately picks Liu Qi, or likes to drink tea, Shangguan Hongyuan just takes a small sip of tea.

A yellow warbler-like voice came into Liu Qi's ears and said, "Dad, if you want to drink tea, let us eat first, can you drink it yourself?" ”

Shangguan Hongyuan put down the teacup, picked up the chopsticks, tapped them on the table, and said, "Eat." ”

With a "bang", Liu Qi picked up the chopsticks and pulled the rice into his mouth, and when his mouth was full, Liu Qi picked up the ribs in front of him and stuffed them into his mouth.

Xiao Qiong watched Liu Qi take a big bite of it, and asked with a smile: "Sixth, is the food cooked by senior brother really so delicious?" ”

Liu Qigu couldn't speak, but nodded violently in agreement.

Xiao Qiong looked at Shangguan Hongyuan and said, "Master, you see, the sixth child says that the food I cook is delicious, and you always dislike it." ”

Shangguan Hongyuan shook his head and said, "That's because he hasn't eaten anything good, and when he walks around Qingping City, he will know what real food is." ”

Liu Qi swallowed the food in his mouth and said in surprise: "Master, is there anything more delicious than the senior brother's cooking?" Would you like to take me to eat? ”

Shangguan Hongyuan smiled and said, "Okay, if you cultivate to the fourth layer, the master will take you there." By the way, you are too young now, so the master will help you keep the money, and when you reach the fourth layer, the master will give it to you. ”

Peng Feiyu interjected: "Master? What money? Peng Feiyu looks relatively normal, and he also looks like he is in his thirties, with a somewhat dark face, thick eyebrows and big eyes, full of heaven, and wearing a cyan long cedar.

Xiao Qiong looks a little ridiculous, with a thin figure, fatter than Liu Qi, a white fir body, a melon seed face, and small eyes. Fang Shuiyou has long hair, and it is not tied up, let it be messy and scattered on his body, it seems that he is in his twenties, and he always looks like he can't wake up. Zishushu was dressed in gray fir, his clothes were neat, his hair was clean, and his face was delicate.

Liu Qi was shocked: "What! Then I'm going back, I'll worship that white-haired old man as a teacher. Master, we said okay, three taels a month, I worship you as a teacher, how can you play tricks? ”

"Poof... Poof" a few times, all the dishes in the mouths of the four people squirted out, but fortunately, everyone reacted quickly and covered their mouths with their hands in time, so that the dishes in their mouths did not spray onto the table. Then, bursting into laughter, the second room was in tears, and he was about to fall to the ground.

Shangguan Hongyuan slapped the table, and several people held back their laughter, but their faces were flushed, and Shangguan Hongyuan said: "You are not allowed to talk about this matter in the future, I will give you three taels every month." ”

Ruan Yingyu relieved the siege and said: "Okay, okay, let's eat quickly, the dishes will be cold for a while." ”

Liu Qi heard that Shangguan Hongyuan gave him money, and began to eat again, and the other four people held back their smiles and ate as well. In the living room, only Shangguan Xirou was unhappy, pouting, not looking at Liu Qi, hiding far away, refusing to get close to Liu Qi an inch.
