Chapter 71: A Chance Encounter
Time flies quickly, and half a month has passed unconsciously.
According to the practice rules of the Taoist sect, the hall master will first teach the Fa to the hall master under his jurisdiction, and this process will take about four to five days, then the hall master will transfer the content to the master of the sect under his jurisdiction, this process will take about six to ten days, and finally the master will transfer it to ordinary disciples.
However, this situation is sometimes exceptional, for example, before the upcoming major competition, the hall master will often gather the hall master, the door master, and even the ordinary disciples together to teach in a unified manner, in the hope that they can stand out in the next competition and win glory for the temple.
Chu Xuan and some other ordinary disciples of the White Tiger Hall were mainly in charge of Jing Zhu's cultivation on weekdays. Of course, Jing Zhu also had to listen to the teachings of the hall master of the White Rhino Hall before he could come back and relay it to everyone. Therefore, during Jing Zhu's absence, most of the disciples of Baifengmen were very idle. Those who have spare money in their hands either pack up a few ingots of gold and secretly go to the blockade outside the sect to have a good time;
Although the Dao Sect prohibits these bad habits, many things are always more and more rampant, and even some hall masters and door masters can't control themselves, so they will quietly go to these places. The owners of the blockades and green houses outside the island naturally want their business to be prosperous, not only will they not report it to the Dao Yizong, but they will help cover up for these generous guests.
In the past, Chu Xuan would probably sneak out to play, but now he was bent on becoming stronger, so even if several fellow disciples repeatedly invited him, he still refused without hesitation.
Taking advantage of the fact that almost all the disciples of Baifengmen had gone out, he came to the inner hall where he listened to lectures on weekdays alone, found a futon and sat down, while looking through the mental method of peeping into the heavenly book, while thinking about things in his heart.
Speaking of which, Chu Xuan has basically memorized the millions of words of mental formulas in the Book of Heaven, but many of them are too difficult and obscure, and he has not yet comprehended the essence for the time being. But no matter what, as far as the heart method is concerned, he doesn't need to learn anything from the Dao Sect at all, he values the techniques and formations more.
The defeat to Xia Qinghan on the beach that night made Chu Xuan clearly realize that he still had a long way to go. Of course, the black sword is one of his hole cards, but Lao Hei's temper is very strange, sometimes he doesn't want to ask him for help, and sometimes he comes uninvited, which often makes Chu Xuan embarrassed.
By the way, it seems that he still has a thing! Chu Xuan suddenly remembered that the iron lump he got from the black boat was still hanging on his waist, so he immediately took it down and inspected it.
The lump was not too big, about two fingers in length and width, and it looked like a small tower. Chu Xuan counted carefully, one level at a time, there were exactly seven layers.
He stared at the tower for a long time, but still didn't see what it was for. If you want to say that it is a hidden weapon, you have to have a blade, which master will make a hidden weapon into a small tower? If it is any other treasure, Chu Xuan doesn't know what to do with it.
Contacting himself to discover the small tower, he suddenly remembered one more thing. That day, I seemed to have seen a headless man in a cloak in the black boat, and then I didn't know what to do, and I fainted all of a sudden, and then I drifted to Chongsheng Island inexplicably, and happened to meet the woman surnamed Xia who took the girl out for a walk.
After Chu Xuan entered the Dao Yi Sect, he once saw a map of the Sanyuan Continent in Jingzhu, from the Xuanluo Lin of the Nanyuan Continent to Chongsheng Island, there was a vast sea of more than 100,000 li in between, not only the torrent whirlpool, but also the pirate infested, which can be described as full of dangers. At that time, he couldn't figure out how he drifted here without eating or drinking.
Thinking of the headless man at this time, Chu Xuan couldn't help but have an idea, could it be that the headless man escorted him all the way to Chongsheng Island? If he guessed correctly, then this matter would be even more outrageous, why did the headless man do that? He didn't seem to have anything to do with it, right?
He thought silently for a long time, but he had no clue and simply stopped thinking about it. Anyway, the most important thing at the moment is to practice hard.
Chu Xuan put away the book of peeping into the sky, got up and was about to leave, just walked out of the main hall, and suddenly saw that under the big tree not far away, the hall master Zhu Tingzhi was arguing with a young woman, and that woman was Zhu Yan, who had not been seen for many days.
I saw Zhu Yan, who had always been gentle, and suddenly said indignantly: "What? Dad asked me to marry Luo Lan, the master of the Green Scale Sect?"
Zhu Tingzhi nodded and said, "That's right, my father has already agreed to this matter for you, and you and Luo Gongzi now have a marriage contract." ”
"No, my daughter will never marry him!" Zhu Yan was resolute.
Zhu Tingzhi persuaded bitterly: "Yan'er, why are you so stubborn? Dad is just your daughter, and this is also for your good." Luo Gongzi is the prince of the Great Liang Kingdom, regardless of his net worth, appearance, and even cultivation, he is the first-class in the world, such a young talent, it is rare that people fall in love with you, and my father promised you to marry him, what other grievances do you have?"
"Dad, you are too selfish! Have you considered your daughter's thoughts? Your daughter doesn't like that surnamed Luo at all! Playboys like them are arrogant and lascivious, they like the new and hate the old, and their daughter will not be happy at all if she marries her!"
"You, Yan'er, you are twenty years old this year, and your daughter's family is at this age, which one will not get married? Besides, the son of Luo is infatuated with you, how can he bear to let you down?"
"I won't marry, if I don't marry, I won't marry! If my father forces me again, I... I will leave Chongsheng Island and never come back!" Zhu Yan became more and more aggrieved the more he spoke, his eyes were red, and he almost cried.
"Okay, don't be angry, don't marry, don't marry, put this matter aside for a while, and then slowly take care of it later. It could be seen that Zhu Tingzhi still loved this daughter very much, and seeing that she was emotional, she hurriedly changed her words.
Only then did Zhu Yan restrain his crying appearance and said, "Then you will withdraw the marriage contract now! ”
"Okay, it's all up to you, it's all up to you. Zhu Tingzhi sighed helplessly.
On the other side, Chu Xuan listened intermittently, his heart was none of his business, and he was about to leave with his body, but unfortunately his luck was really bad, Zhu Yan on the opposite side happened to turn his head, recognized him at a glance, and said in a lost voice:
"Brother Xuan, why are you here? Did you hear what my father and I just said?"
Chu Xuan had no choice but to say: "Back to Senior Sister's words, I was promoted by the real person of the Zhizong Sect, and the younger brother joined the White Tiger Hall half a month ago, and now Senior Brother Jingzhu is practicing under him." In the past few days, Senior Brother Jing has been busy listening to the hall master's sermons, and we ordinary disciples have nothing to do, so we have to wander around, but we didn't expect to arrive here. ”
Zhu Tingzhi on the side also recognized Chu Xuan, and said to his daughter: "Yan'er also recognizes this kid? ”
Zhu Yan ignored his father and said to Chu Xuan: "Since Brother Xuan has entered the sect, Senior Sister is also relieved." No matter what you hear today, Senior Sister hopes you don't say it, okay?"
"Senior sister, don't worry, Lin Xuan didn't hear anything. ”
Chu Xuan said, shook his sleeves, carried his body, swept onto the roof like a bird, and then disappeared.
Zhu Tingzhi saw it in his eyes, and only felt very surprised, isn't this kid a pulseless waste? Where did the aura work and body method come from? If he has cultivation, why can't he see it at all?
In this way, the name Lin Xuan was written down by him.
