"The Great Elder was in the middle of the Jindan when he was traveling, and now he is at the peak of the Jindan, and he is about to get married. But his old man only stayed for three months when he came back this time, and he planned to break through the Jindan to marry a baby outside, and this time he came back to deal with some things, and it was very dangerous to get a baby, and he might say goodbye forever. ”

Chen Tang didn't know how to reply, so he could only listen.

"In the past three months since he came back this time, there have been a lot of things, especially many things in the door he has to deal with, and he also wants to hold a few classes for the inner disciples, and the disciples in the door need to be sent over to help him do some chores. But the Great Elder has a strange temper, likes to be quiet and does not like to make trouble, and does not want many people to serve, as long as there is one person, the four elders discussed it and planned to send you. What do you think?"

Chen Tang was stunned for a moment, and replied: "This is a great honor for the disciple, of course the disciple is willing to go, but the disciple is stupid, and he is afraid that he will disappoint the great elder if he does not do well." ”

"The Great Elder has an upright personality, he doesn't smile, but he is a little more stern, with your wisdom and intelligence, there should be no problem. Yao Lao comforted.

Chen Tang felt a little strange when he heard that the Great Elder had an upright personality, most of the upright people up and down the Liuyun Sect, and the Xiyue Sect were some wicked people, could this be the choice of the sect? Yao Lao saw him thinking, so he asked Chen Tang what he was thinking, and Chen Tang answered truthfully.

Yao Lao said with a smile: "This is related to the rules set by the patriarch, and it is also related to the will of the inheritor, starting from recruiting disciples, teaching are honest people, then they grow up to be honest people, passed down from generation to generation, Xiyue Gate is loose, and has entered many rat generations, and the disciples are affected, and naturally the generation is worse than the next." ”

Chen Tang suddenly remembered a few words from the original world studies, so he read: "At the beginning of human beings, nature is good, sex is similar, and Xi is far away. ”

Yao Lao was stunned after hearing this, and muttered and repeated: "At the beginning of people, their nature is good, their sex is similar, and their habits are far away. slapped the table and shouted: "Good poetry, good poetry, three words, four sentences tell such a big truth." ”

Chen Tang was taken aback, and said in his heart, this is what children in the world used to read every day, and it has become a good poem here.

Yao Lao laughed and said: "I have never admired anyone, but today I actually admired a 14-year-old child." ”

Chen Tang hurriedly stood up and bowed down and said, "Yao Lao is serious. ”

Yao Lao looked at Chen Tang and nodded with satisfaction, "Tomorrow you go to the Third Elder, and he will take you there." ”

On the second day, Chen Tang went to report to the Third Elder, the Third Elder was dealing with the things in the door, and he was about to take Chen Tang away after a while, Chen Tang said: "Third Elder, when will you test the spiritual root for me? I also want to know what spiritual root I have." ”

The third elder was stunned for a moment, "You can test it now, you come with me." Then the three elders told Chen Tang about the knowledge of the spiritual root, it is possible to build a foundation above the three spiritual roots, there are very few dual spiritual roots, and the qualifications are good, but the gap between the two spiritual roots is not too big, as for the single spiritual root, it has not appeared for hundreds of years, even if it is a single spiritual root, only by practicing the exercises that are in line with their own spiritual roots can they have some help, so the spiritual roots of each sect are just to increase the probability of building a foundation and waste some resources. Therefore, the third elder always thought that since Chen Tang was able to cultivate quickly, it was definitely not the four spirit roots and the five spirit roots, and as for whether it was three or two, it didn't matter much.

Coming to the side room, there was a spirit measuring stone inside, and the three elders told Chen Tang to put his hand on the spirit measuring stone to know that white, green, blue, red and yellow correspond to gold, wood, water, fire, and earth, and the spirit measuring stone lit up in several colors is a few spirit roots. Chen Tang Yiyan put his hand on the spirit measuring stone, the five colors of the spirit measuring stone flashed, and then only one blue was left, the third elder was drinking water with a cup, and when he saw the blue light, the cup fell to the ground with a clatter, and then quickly jumped up and closed all the doors and windows, and then came to the spirit stone, rubbed his eyes and looked at the bright blue, the third elder muttered: "The old man opened his eyes once, the single spirit root that has not appeared for hundreds of years is still the water spirit root." The third elder asked Chen Tang to put his hand down, and the blue light went out.

"Remember, don't measure the spiritual root anywhere in the future, and don't tell anyone about your single spiritual root. The third elder instructed.

Chen Tang agreed, seeing that the three elders were so nervous, it seemed that Shan Linggen was very remarkable, but he didn't find anything special.

The Third Elder was about to go out with Chen Tang, and suddenly the Third Elder pulled Chen Tang back to the Spirit Measuring Stone, "You test it again." ”

Chen Tang pressed his hand, and it was a bright blue light, and the three elders let out a sigh of relief and took Chen Tang out of the door, "Remember what I just said, don't test, don't say." ”

After walking a short distance to the inner gate, this is a quiet courtyard, the third elder stood respectfully in the courtyard, and said softly: "Uncle Shi, I brought the people." ”

Chen Tang was taken aback, the Great Elder was the senior uncle of the Third Elder, and he was very senior.

There was an old voice in the room: "Is it the 'beginning of people, good nature, similar sex, and far away from Xi'?" came out of the house an old man, with gray hair, and a face that was not angry but mighty,

Chen Tang hurriedly stepped forward to give a salute: "Disciple Chen Tang, I have seen the Great Elder. ”

The Great Elder looked at Chen Tang, and sure enough, his face was strange, his right face was like a crown of jade, his sword eyebrows were bright, and his left face was full of haze, and dark clouds were rolling.

The Great Elder smiled: "Sure enough, it is the posture of a sinking fish and a goose." ”

Chen Tang looked up in surprise, how did the Great Elder know about the joke on the wine table.

"Xue Mengyao is the fifth generation of my clan. The Great Elder explained.

Chen Tang was stunned and said embarrassedly: "It's all a joke, the disciples have no form." ”

"Oh, young man, just be active. "The Great Elder is not smiling like what the Medicine Elder said.

The third elder stepped forward and said, "There is another matter to report to Uncle Shi, Chen Tang has just measured the spiritual root, which is a single spiritual root of the water system. ”

The Great Elder was taken aback, "Does anyone else know about this?"

"No, only I know. The Third Elder replied.

"Oh, it's fine. Don't say anything about it. The Great Elder looked at Chen Tang: "Don't measure the spiritual root in the future, as for the water system exercises... I want to think about it. The latter sentence was addressed to the three elders. The three elders promised and took their leave.

The Great Elder pointed to the side room, "You will live here in the future, I want to meet the old people in the door in the next three days, you don't have to follow, you can arrange these three days yourself." "After that, I went back to my room. Chen Tang went to the side room to arrange accommodation.

After arranging the accommodation, Chen Tang couldn't settle down, and he couldn't cultivate, this was the first time he came to the inner gate, so he walked out of the small courtyard casually, and also wanted to go to see Bai Yang.

After asking a disciple of the deacon in the door, Chen Tang walked unhurriedly towards Bai Yang's residence. The scenery is beautiful all the way, the mountain peaks are steep, the path is either on the mountainside or in the valley, and the pavilions and pavilions are faintly exposed between the green forests, Chen Tang thought to himself that this should be the residence of the elders or core disciples and inner disciples.
