Jiangnan, Taihu Lake.

I stood quietly on the edge of Taihu Lake, looking at the clear water, thinking for a while, who would have thought that I would return to the south of the Yangtze River three times before I found the true location of the Maoshan sect's patriarch token. According to what the land god said at the beginning, after the nine tribulations, we were able to find the ancestor token of the Maoshan faction, and now, the ancestor token is in this Taihu Lake, close at hand.

Despite this, I did not have the excitement and anticipation that I had at the beginning, but a still thought flowed in my body and mind. The mountains and water here still seem to be so ordinary, but I know what kind of extraordinary lies in this ordinary. The breeze blows on my face, making my heart extraordinarily ethereal.

In the blink of an eye, I swam Taihu Lake, I returned to the same place lightly, frowning slightly, since I came to Taihu Lake in the south of the Yangtze River, why didn't I see the old man for a long time? Elder Xu's first step here was me, if he was there, I should be able to sense his breath, and even I didn't even sense the breath of the Supreme Demon Martingale Order. This...... I was a little surprised.

"Uncle Shi, dare to ask if you are Uncle Li Xianchu?"

Suddenly, a crisp sound reached my ears.

I turned my head and saw that it was a young man of fifteen or sixteen years old, with a delicate face, dressed in an ink-colored Taoist robe of the Maoshan School, and saluted me very respectfully. I smiled slightly, nodded and said, "Yes, but I don't know if the little senior brother is ......"

"Uncle Li has tormented the younger generation, the younger generation has entered the school, just entered the Taoist Gate, worshiped under the master Shangguan Jinmen not long ago, with the entry not long ago, but still heard of the legendary experience of Uncle Li Xianchu, this time the younger generation is fortunate to follow the master and the master, as well as Master Yang and the earth immortal ancestor, the earth fairy boy and several Maoshan elders came to Taihu Lake together, in order to help Uncle Li help. Now that I have really met Uncle Li, the younger generation is really fortunate to have three lives! ”

Zeng Jinxue had a sincere and frightened expression, and still maintained that respectful attitude, and after speaking, he lowered his head even more.

"Oh? Once in school, you worshiped under Shangguan Jin's door? ”

Seeing that the junior had entered the school and nodded in agreement, I couldn't help but smile again: "I didn't expect Senior Brother Shangguan Jin not to come to compete with our Tantric Sect for the ancestor token, but to return to the Maoshan Sect to teach with peace of mind, hehe!" Well, it's okay, it's time for Shangguan Jin to take care of it, he is always sabotaged by your master, but it's not the right way, by the way, you said that your master Yang is also here? Then your Master Yang must be my Master Yang Yuanshan? ”

When Zeng Jinxue heard my words, he lowered his head very respectfully, and finally nodded hurriedly and agreed: "Yes, Uncle Yang, Master Yang Yuanshan is very concerned about Uncle Li, if it weren't for all the elders to come together, I'm afraid that Master Yang would have to come to Taihu Lake first." By the way, Master and Master are all waiting for Uncle Li in the bamboo forest not far in front, and they also ask Uncle Li to move and go with the juniors! After speaking, Zeng Jinxue respectfully made an inviting gesture to me.

Seeing Zeng Jinxue, I was even more emotional, how long has it been, Shangguan Jin has actually accepted apprentices, and this Zeng Jinxue is polite, and has a loyal and kind temperament, it seems that Shangguan Jin is not very good at doing things, and the disciple is first-class. But as soon as I thought that the master was also coming, my heart moved, and I disappeared in an instant, and in the blink of an eye, I hurriedly showed my figure a hundred feet away, turned my head to look, but saw the frightened look on my face that had entered the school.

I smiled wryly and shook my head: "I forgot, you should lead the way!" ”

Zeng Jinxue trotted to me, but looked at me with a look of admiration, and finally couldn't help asking: "Uncle Li, your body just now is so powerful, you can even make a difference, if so, if you can mention some juniors, the juniors will be very honored, and they will practice hard and repay Uncle Li's great kindness in the future!" After speaking, seeing that Zeng Jinxue was about to kneel, I immediately waved my sleeves and made a force to block it back.

Immediately, I said lightly: "The secret art of the Maoshan faction is the best in the world, and our Maoshan ranks first among the seventy-two blessed lands, and there are many mysterious methods waiting for you to practice, so you don't have to be attached to this little bit of my doorway, hehe!" With that, I waved my hand and motioned for him to lead the way. stubborn for a while, Zeng Jinxue had to honestly walk in front and lead the way.

Not long after, I came to a bamboo forest with Zeng Jin, and in the distance, I saw a beautiful courtyard building. Maybe I wanted to see the master as soon as possible, but before I said hello to Zeng Jinxue, my figure moved, disappeared in place in an instant, and reappeared, already at the door of Xiaozhu.

In the hall, the first person in the first place was none other than the Earth Immortal Ancestor who had only one side, and the Earth Immortal Boy stood quietly beside him, and on the seats on both sides, on one side was the master who had not seen him for a long time sitting alone, and on the other side, Gu Tan and Shangguan Jin Master and Apprentice, they all came. I stood still for a long time, and the people inside noticed my arrival, and the first to stand up was the master, who came to me with a face full of surprise, first looked at me deeply, and then his voice trembled a little with excitement: "Okay! is worthy of being my disciple Yang Yuanshan, Ergou, you, you have finally surpassed the teacher! ”

"Master!"

Hearing Master's voice, I still couldn't help the tip of my nose sour, my eyes blurred for a while, and I respectfully bowed to Master.

"Get up, get up!"

Master hurriedly helped me up, and then, Gu Tan's master and apprentice came into view, this time I saw Gu Tan's master and apprentice, but it gave me a touch of cordiality, their faces, it seems that there is no longer that kind of ruthless atmosphere, on the contrary, what they gave me is a higher level of open-mindedness and kindness, I immediately saluted Gu Tan respectfully: "I have seen Gu Tan's uncle, I have seen Shangguan Jin's senior brother!" ”

"Hahaha...... Yang Yuanshan really accepted a good apprentice! Ergou, you really gave our Maoshan faction a big face! Even the Earth Immortal Ancestor, who has always refused to go out of the mountain, heard the news of your return to Jiangnan, and hurried to come out to take a look, now no one in the Maoshan faction has your face! ”

It seems that there is a smile of enmity and hatred, and it seems that the past is like smoke, Gu Tan laughed and patted me on the shoulder, and Shangguan Jin returned the salute to me and said nothing. But his intentions, I already understand, I don't say it here, but I can say it.

I walked quickly to the Earth Immortal Ancestor and saluted respectfully, but the Earth Immortal Ancestor smiled and waved his hand: "Excuse me, my old bones, but I can't stand your boy's courtesy, maybe it won't be long before I have to salute you!" Hehe! After a pause, in a state where we were all confused, the Earth Immortal Ancestor seemed to see everything and stood up, and then said, "Old Dao, I really want to come and see you, a cultivation wizard, if you want me to say, being able to sincerely serve the Tao and practice rigorously is the greatest talent, what talent is extraordinary, what is different from ordinary people, it is all nonsense!" You all see, Xianchu, this kid has mediocre qualifications, but he has left you cultivation wizards far behind, do you still dare to make fun of those juniors with mediocre qualifications with congenital deficiencies? ”

"Yes!"

Master, Gu Tan, and everyone present all respectfully agreed.

The Earth Immortal Ancestor then smiled and said: "The world is impermanent, the day and night are uncertain, there is no absoluteness in the matter of cultivation, as long as he can go through hardships and not retreat from the Dao heart, he will definitely achieve the Dao fruit one day." Okay, this person also saw it, I'm just passing by, boy, we should go too, other things, it's not that we should meddle, let's go. "I didn't expect the Earth Immortal Ancestor to say that he would leave, but when the Earth Immortal Boy walked up to me, he pursed his lips and smiled at me, and then disappeared from our sight with the Earth Immortal Ancestor.

"Huh! This old guy is still a dragon and can't see the end, obviously it is a very rare second dog, but he still pretends to be indifferent, really! ”

Gu Tan smiled bitterly and shook his head, watching the Earth Immortal Ancestor leave.

Turn around and sit down.

The master still maintained the temperament of a grandmaster, but before he and Gu Tan could speak, Zeng Jinxue ran in from outside, Zeng Jinxue ran to Shangguan Jin in a panic, and gasped and said: "Master, Master, Uncle Li suddenly disappeared, and the disciple searched for a long time, but still didn't find ......" Before the words were finished, Zeng Jinxue's eyes suddenly shifted to me, and I couldn't help but smile apologetically at the moment.

"I thought that the tutor was here, so I came first, which made you worried."

I smiled and explained to Zeng Jinxue.

"Your Uncle Li is now very comparable, but you are panicked when you encounter something, what kind of system do you become? Don't quit yet! ”

Shangguan Jin seemed to have a stern expression.

After the Zeng went to school and retreated respectfully, I smiled and said to Shangguan Jin: "Senior Brother Shangguan Jin is very different from the past, I never thought that you would settle down and teach the profession, hehe!" ”

When Shangguan Jin heard this, he immediately fiddled with the Dharma fan in his hand, and replied with a wry smile: "Yes, originally I thought that Senior Brother Li's mediocre qualifications were not of great use, but I was able to help my master win over your Tantra, but the result was ...... Hehe! Now that I've figured it out, it's me who really has mediocre qualifications, so how can I be uneasy about teaching the profession? As for the big matter of finding the token of our Maoshan sect patriarch, I will simply throw it to you, and it will save our Xianzong from worrying about it, hehe......"

Gu Tan smiled with satisfaction at Shangguan Jin's words, and then said to me seriously: "Ergou, this time even the capital of the Supreme Demon Luo Martingale has come to Taihu Lake, I wonder how sure you are that you will be able to take back the things of our Maoshan Sect from him?" You must know that it is a token of our ancestor who founded the mountain and established the faction, and it cannot fall into the hands of the evil demons! Hearing Gu Tan's words, I nodded heavily, in terms of the general righteousness of the sect, perhaps the secret grievances that have been fought for thousands of years are no longer worth mentioning, after all, from the root, we are all descendants of the Maoshan faction, and we naturally want to join forces to deal with the evil demons.

However, when I heard Gu Tan's words, my brows suddenly furrowed: "Martingale Lingzhi is also here?!" ”
