Chapter 15: Zhiruo's Quest for Extinction (Part 2)
The sun is setting in the west.
Zhou Zhiruo jumped up in the mountains with Emei's light skills and rose slowly. This is how she goes up and down the mountain, once every seven days, to exercise her light skills.
As the sun set, the sky began to darken.
Zhou Zhiruo finally arrived at the Emei station.
I saw that between the mountain peaks, the courtyards are built according to the cliffs, although they are not neat at a glance, but careful observation, you can find that between the courtyards, and the ups and downs of the mountain peaks are perfectly fitted, and nature is harmonious and unified.
Zhou Zhiruo fell with light skills and walked between the stairs.
"Senior sister."
"Senior sister."
โยทยทยทโ
The senior sisters shouted out from the mouths of the girls one by one, full of the sound of warblers and swallows.
Zhou Zhiruo also smiled back one by one.
After a turning point along the way, Zhou Zhiruo came to the door of the house of the head of the Emei faction.
"Zhiruo, right? Come on in! โ
Before Zhou Zhiruo could speak, the voice of the exterminator came out from inside.
"Yes, Master."
Zhou Zhiruo pushed the door and entered, and saw the exterminator sitting on the futon with his eyes closed, his hands crossed and lightly placed on the dantian, and the Heavenly Sword was beside her.
It's not about practicing, it's about meditating.
The exterminator opened his eyes, but he didn't see any light in it, but it looked very ordinary.
"I'm going to teach that brother your martial arts again?" The Exterminator asked, without a reproachful tone in his words.
"Yes." Zhou Zhiruo replied, respectful, polite, and humble, "My brother has been lazy since he was a child, and I can't rest assured, so I promise him some self-preservation." โ
The exterminator nodded, let go of his hand, and his expression relaxed a lot.
"I know that your brother is as good in bones and understanding as yours. Originally, he intended to accept him as a disciple, but he refused because I, the male disciple of Emei, were too few. Oh, what a pity! โ
After speaking, the exterminator also shook his head.
"Master, I'm about to tell you about this." Zhou Zhiruo stepped closer to the extermination master and continued beside him, "Brother said to me today, he used to be young and ignorant, but this time he wants to join the Emei faction. Zhiruo begs you to accept him as a disciple. โ
"Oh?"
The exterminator raised his eyebrows and asked, "Is this really what he said?" โ
"Undoubtedly! Zhiruo didn't dare to deceive Master! โ
"Do you know why he made that decision?"
Zhou Zhiruo shook her head, "I don't know, my brother's mind is unpredictable, and I don't know what he thinks!" โ
"Then tell the teacher what you have done today."
Zhou Zhiruo thought for a breath and organized some words, and then she told what she had done.
Regarding Ji Zhen's non-practice of [Emei Jiuyang Gong], about the sword and martial arts he practiced. only didn't say anything about Emei who confided in Ji Zhen.
"From this point of view, your brother is interested in martial arts!" Exterminator Tai stood up, faced Zhou Zhiruo, and said.
"Did Master agree?" Zhou Zhiruo asked in surprise.
The exterminator shook his head, obviously not agreeing, "If it was a few years ago, I would have agreed." But now, the situation is different. โ
"Your brother has an active mind and a high level of understanding, but this interest in martial arts comes and goes quickly, and maybe it goes quickly."
"Besides, now that your brother is old, he has missed the best age to learn martial arts. You may be able to achieve something, but the best is not enough. โ
"Master, Zhiruo begs you!"
Zhou Zhi was about to kneel down if she said this, but as soon as the exterminator waved her hand, a wave of internal strength came out, making her knees unable to bend anymore.
"Zhiruo, you should know Master and my temperament." The exterminator said, "I allow you to teach him [Emei Jiuyang Gong] is already the greatest tolerance. โ
Zhou Zhiruo stood up.
Of course, she knew that Master's temperament was jealous and hateful, and stubbornness was mixed with persistence, and once a decision was made, it would not be changed.
"Master, Zhiruo begs Master for permission. Zhiruo taught Emei martial arts to his brother so that he would not die in the wilderness. โ
The exterminator's eyes widened, and his expression became solemn, but looking at Zhou Zhiruo's eyes, everything dissipated again.
She really likes this apprentice too much, he has excellent heels and understanding, and he has a good temperament, and he is impartial, and he is the best candidate to inherit the head of the Emei faction.
"Hey, okay, I promise you for the teacher." The exterminator stroked Zhou Zhiruo's hair, and his voice was full of love, "However, if you want to teach your brother Emei martial arts, then you must practice martial arts even better." Otherwise, if there is something wrong, it will be the result of disability. โ
"Thank you, Master, thank you, Master." Zhou Zhiruo cried with joy.

"Brother, you can see clearly, this is the [Emei Sword Technique]."
Zhou Zhiruo still went down the mountain in seven days, not because she didn't want to shorten the time, but because she wanted to give Ji Zhen time to get familiar with the martial arts of the Emei faction.
I saw Zhou Zhiruo's swordsmanship unfolding in the courtyard, combining movement and static, shaking his wrist lightly, and the swordsmanship of one move opened in Ji Zhen's eyes.
The swordsmanship is not a big opening and closing, nor is it extremely varied, nor is it delicate and continuous. But it is as majestic as a high mountain mixed with ruggedness and danger, sometimes remote, sometimes tortuous, sometimes continuous, sometimes intermittent, it can be described as unique, mysterious and abnormal.
Just as Mount Emei is steep and narrow, deep ravines and huge gullies can be seen everywhere, and the thrilling trend is the difficulty of flying birds and apes stopping.
This Emei sword technique also has the majesty of Emei Mountain, and has the thrilling danger of the mountain peaks in the meantime.
There is a bit of a sense of wonder in it.
Seeing Zhou Zhiruo wielding a sword in the courtyard, Ji Zhen immediately stood up from the edge of the door, picked up a bamboo branch, and waved it as well.
When Zhou Zhiruo saw Ji Zhen's situation, she immediately smiled slightly, then put away the swordsmanship and began to disassemble the swordsmanship one move at a time to explain it to Ji Zhen.
This is exactly what Ji Zhen means, and he must learn the Emei swordsmanship.
Time flies.
In the blink of an eye, a year has passed.
In Zhou Zhiruo's explanation, Ji Zhen learned Emei martial arts. Emei swordsmanship, four elephant palms, golden top cotton palms, snow through the clouds palm, and nine styles of cutting hands are all reproduced in Ji Zhen's hands.
And when these martial arts were all circulated in Ji Zhen's heart, he finally pondered the [Emei Jiuyang Gong] thoroughly, not only thoroughly, but almost familiar.
A year has passed, and the accumulation of the source power of the Derivation Technique has been reached again.
Therefore, the fusion of [Shenzhao Zikui Sutra] and [Emei Jiuyang Gong] was once again put on the agenda by Ji Zhen.
"Brother, my sister can't accompany you for the next six months, Master ordered me to retreat and cultivate, and I can't go down the mountain without entering the fifth level of [Emei Jiuyang Gong]."
"The things at home have been prepared, and if there is anything missing, I will also give you silver taels, which you can buy in the town."
Ji Zhen nodded and said with a smile: "Go ahead, I'm fine." โ
Zhou Zhiruo responded to Ji Zhen with a smile, and then worked lightly together and floated away.
