Wen Shuo sighed infinitely in his heart, raised his eyes and looked into the distance, but saw the stars first appearing, the bright Milky Way across the sky, and a round of unfinished moons, quietly hanging on the edge of the Milky Way.

Suddenly, a feeling of epiphany flashed through my mind......

But, did not catch.

Wen Shuo frowned a little annoyed, then took out a cigarette and lit it, took a deep breath, and let out a long sigh as he exhaled the smoke.

"Master, what's wrong with you?" Gong Xiang asked in a low voice of concern.

Wen Shuo shook his head and did not speak.

Jin Chirui saw that the master was no longer obsessed with watching the night sky, but lit a cigarette and sighed, and then the little junior brother talked to the master, and then he spoke: "Master, this time I came to Wohuling to participate in the Xuanmen Jianghu Conference, I really opened my eyes, I didn't expect it...... The Xuanmen rivers and lakes are so big, there will be so many strange people in our lives!"

Wen Shuo smiled and said, "That's why I let you two come." ”

"Senior brother......" Gong Xiang hesitated for a moment, and whispered: "Don't you think, in fact, if there are only these people in the Xuanmen rivers and lakes, there are very few?"

"Huh?" Jin Chirui was stunned.

"yes, that's too little. Wen Shuo raised his hand and touched Xiao Gongxiang's head with great satisfaction, looked at the Wohuling Village at his feet, and the brightly lit and noisy Zhai family compound, and sighed: "The Xuanmen rivers and lakes have withered for more than 200 years, and I didn't have any feelings about it before, so I didn't talk to you about this rivers and lakes, and I really didn't want to get involved in it, I just wanted to stay away from it as much as possible." ”

Jin Chirui already understood the reason why the master and his junior brother said that the rivers and lakes were small and there were too few Xuanshi in the rivers and lakes.

At this moment, when he heard the master say such words, he and the little junior brother couldn't help but glance at each other and nodded their heads.

Immediately, Jin Chirui naturally raised his hand and touched the back of the little junior brother's head.

His own words just now were refuted by the junior brother, and he was robbed of the limelight by the junior brother in front of the master, Jin Chirui was not displeased at all, and he was not jealous because of the master's preference for the junior brother - Bensi's person, and he has followed Wen Shuo for so long, how can he not understand the master's personality and not have a little self-knowledge?

He had long known that the master had accepted another apprentice, but when he really saw the little junior brother, it was this time that the master asked him to contact Gong Yigua and come to Shuchuan together.

Along the way, the intelligence and maturity of the little junior brother made Jin Chirui quite fond of it.

So when he secretly admired the master's good vision in his heart, he couldn't help but feel a little complacent-well, the master's vision is good, so he accepted me as an apprentice because......

Well, I'm not bad.

It's just a little older, alas.

Gong Xiang looked up at Master's indifferent expression and asked, "Master, in the past two days, my father, Master Jing, and Master Hong have been very busy, and you have also asked my senior brother to help." But why don't you get involved in receiving these people from the Xuanmen Sect? Why don't you go and get in touch with those people at night and talk about the Tao like everyone else? Just take me around and let me stay with you at Mr. Jing's house at night, just to inspect my cultivation progress and teach me my mystical practice?"

Wen Shuo thought for a while and said with a smile: "Because there are some things that Master hasn't thought through clearly yet, and has been hesitating. ”

"Still haven't decided yet?" Gong Xiang asked.

"There you go. Wen Shuo smiled, his expression determined.

Jin Chirui looked at the master and the little junior brother in surprise, listening to their conversation, confused......

Gong Xiang lowered his head and whispered: "Actually, I have been hesitating, because I don't know what kind of choice my hope master will make in the end in this difficult choice, because there is only right and wrong, right and wrong." ”

"Small item. Wen Shuo looked kind, as if he suddenly had dozens of years of experience and life, and said lightly: "Actually, there is a middle option." ”

"Huh?" Gong Xiang looked surprised.

Wen Shuo smiled, "This is my decision now...... Since the beginning of practicing the Xuanfa, he has been destined to be a person in the Xuanmen rivers and lakes, so there is no talk of entering the rivers and lakes and retreating from the rivers and lakes, and there is no concept of staying away or approaching, it is just deceiving himself. ”

Confusion flashed in Gong Xiang's eyes, and he looked at the master seriously, waiting for the master's answer.

And Jin Chirui finally understood what he was talking about when he said that between the master and the junior brother just now, the clouds and mountains were covered in fog.

"This river and lake is so old, so old that there are only a few words and clichés left. Wen Shuo stood with his hands in his hands, looked at the night sky, and said softly: "People are in the rivers and lakes, and their hearts are above the rivers and lakes, so that they can see the rivers and lakes more clearly." If you don't want to pay anything for this Jianghu, your dreams and life goals are not in Xuanmen Jianghu, then you don't have to spend time on the fame of the rivers and lakes, let alone make friends everywhere and ......"

"But, talking about the Tao of the Mystery is beneficial to the practice of the Occult Law. Gong Xiang whispered.

"You know more people in the rivers and lakes...... Wen Shuo said with a smile: "You will find that it is different from what you imagined and hoped for, because you want to have more people who can talk about the Tao of the Occult Theory, but in the end you find that you have encountered more affairs in the rivers and lakes, you need to deal with more affairs in the rivers and lakes, and think about how to maintain interpersonal relationships all the time, but it drags down your cultivation, and you don't have enough time and mood to talk about the Tao of the Mystery and the Tao." ”

Gong Xiang suddenly realized, nodded and bowed heavily: "Thank you Master for your teachings." ”

Jin Chirui also hurriedly bowed down and saluted his master.

Wen Shuo waved his hand and said, "I only realized these things just now in the past two days, and just now I suddenly grasped this idea and told it to you." ”

"Master......" Jin Chirui looked slightly hesitant.

"Huh?" Wen Shuo looked at Jin Chirui and smiled, his eyes showing encouragement - he knew that Jin Chirui had probably made discoveries and insights in the past two days, but he was embarrassed to tell him, the master, and felt that he was making a big fuss. But now, the little junior brother raised questions twice and discussed with the master, and Jin Chirui also wanted to show it a little.

Jin Chirui said curtly: "In the past two days, I have come into contact with a lot of people from the Xuanmen rivers and lakes, sect families, and so on......"

"Well, what have you discovered and felt?" Wen Shuo encouraged with a blunt voice.

"Originally, I didn't think it was anything, but just now the little junior brother and you said that the Xuanmen rivers and lakes have withered for more than two hundred years, and there are too few Xuanmen, and the rivers and lakes are too small, so I want to talk about my discoveries and insights. Jin Chirui sighed and said, "The rivers and lakes are indeed withering...... It is completely different from the rivers and lakes in our inner concept. Perhaps influenced by martial arts, film and television works, and various information from childhood to adulthood, when it comes to rivers and lakes, we will be very accustomed to thinking of the scale of the sect, ranging from hundreds to thousands of people, to thirty or fifty people, even if it is an ordinary family, there should be more than ten outstanding characters. ”

Wen Shuo and Gong Xiang nodded seriously, expressing their approval of Jin Chirui's words.

"But now......" Jin Chirui smiled bitterly: "Almost all of them are represented by the name of an individual, and then introduce his family, senior brothers, apprentices or something, and there are almost no sects that tell the sect." And it is often three or five people, at most seven or eight people, where is there any brilliant momentum of famous families in the rivers and lakes?"

Wen Shuo frowned slightly, thinking about something.

Xiao Gongxiang scratched his head and said, "It seems to be really embarrassing...... My dad had a similar sentiment last night. ”

In other words, there are no sects and families in today's rivers and lakes. Jin Chirui said: "There is only a family." ”

Wen Shuo raised his head sharply and stared straight at Jin Chirui.

Xiao Gongxiang looked at the master with a puzzled expression.

Jin Chirui shivered even more, his heart was furious, his back was cold, and he said cautiously: "Master, is the disciple, did you say something wrong? Don't be angry, I have poor understanding, you know......"

Wen Shuo waved his hand, turned to look at the Zhai family's compound under his feet with a serious expression, and said softly: "You're right, I just thought of another thing. ”

Jin Chirui's heart hanging in his throat fell, and he let out a sigh of relief.

"Let's go, go back to dinner. Wen Shuo walked down the mountain.

"Master, what did you think of just now?" Gong Xiang couldn't help but catch up with Master's footsteps and whispered, "It seems to be very serious?"

Jin Chirui followed behind and pricked up his ears.

He wouldn't ask Master with a straight eyebrow like a junior brother did—he would be criticized!

So young age is an absolute advantage in many cases.

Wen Shuo waved his hand and said, "I'm not sure, so ...... I'll tell you later. ”

"Then I can help Master with ideas. Gong Xiang grinned, using his age advantage to satisfy his inner curiosity, and by the way, he also pulled the senior brother in: "There is still a senior brother, let's figure it out together." ”

"You're talking too much!" Wen Shuo frowned.

"Oh. Gong Xiang stuck out his tongue and turned his head to look at his senior brother.

saw that the senior brother shook his head lightly at him.

"Chi Rui......" Wen Shuo suddenly ordered: "Back to the Zhai family's compound in a while, don't eat first, find Zhai Chuan'an, get in touch with the young people of the Zhai family, and walk around the village, especially in the direction of the village entrance leading to Bapan County, mainly to observe, whether there are any Xuanshi leaving Wohuling, how many people are approximately, and whether there are new Xuanshi coming from that direction, how many people." ”

"Yes!" Jin Chirui replied and said, "Then, when did you observe it? All night?"

Wen Shuo thought for a moment and said, "Eleven o'clock." ”

"Yes!"

Gong Xiang's eyes rolled slightly, and he wanted to ask, but he had to tighten his lips to hold back his curiosity.

This Xuanmen Jianghu Conference must be very exciting.

Will there be a big brawl?!

The divine weapons flew in the sky, and the mystics fought each other......

Wohuling Village was finally razed to the ground?

As soon as he thought of this, he was about to walk to the gate of the Zhai family's compound, when the master suddenly said to him again: "Xiao Xiang, after going back tonight, you are definitely not allowed to leave the courtyard where we live at night, do you hear?"

"I didn't leave every night, and you didn't let me. Gong Xiang pursed his lips and whispered.

"Huh?" Wen Shuo looked at him seriously.

"Got it, Master. Gong Xiang hurriedly lowered his head and answered obediently.

"There is still tomorrow......" Wen Shuo narrowed his eyes and said, "Without my permission, you are not allowed to go out of the courtyard gate for half a step, it is best to stay in the house!"

"Oh. Gong Xiang responded pitifully.
