The children of the families who needed to open their spirits followed the Xuanshui Sect's guide towards the mountain gate of the Xuanshui Sect, while most of the remaining old servants chose to stay in the pavilion and wait for the results. Elder Liu was different from these individuals, after he personally handed over Zhou Yuke and Zhou Yusheng to the hands of the usher, he led Xia Moxuan to the outer gate of the Xuanshui Sect. After Xia Moxuan and Elder Liu walked a mountain road, they saw the outer gate of the Xuanshui Sect, a huge manor built next to the mountain.

"Stop! This place is where the outer gate of the Xuanshui Sect is located, and idlers are not allowed to enter!" As soon as the two of them arrived at the mountain gate of the outer gate of the Xuanshui Sect, four outer disciples dressed in green clothes guarding this place stopped the two.

"The old man Liu Yuan is Wu Qifan, the old friend of Deacon Wu, this is the old man's token, and I bothered a few people to report it. Elder Liu said as he handed out a folding fan and four silver ingots.

"Deacon Wu, who is Deacon Wu?" asked the young man at the head with a frown.

"It's the old man Wu of the Library Pavilion. The attendant beside the young man whispered in his ear.

"Alright then, you wait. After the young man finished speaking, he asked one of the people around him to report, and Xia Moxuan, who had been waiting quietly on the side, couldn't help but have a bad feeling in his heart, this Deacon Wu didn't seem to have a high status.

Soon the person who reported came back, and he nodded towards the young man to signal that Elder Liu and the two could indeed enter, "Okay, Old Seven, bring people in." The young man didn't say anything after receiving the bribe, and randomly found a subordinate to guide Elder Liu and the others.

After walking unhurriedly for another quarter of an hour, Xia Moxuan and Elder Liu came to a relatively remote courtyard, although this courtyard was not as good as the other buildings in the manor in terms of layout and decoration, but it was better than a static character, and in general it was a good place for elegance and tranquility.

"Further on, there is the Library Pavilion, where Deacon Wu is. The leader of the road stopped after taking Elder Liu and the others into the small courtyard.

"Thank you, little brother, please accept it. As he spoke, Elder Liu took out another piece of silver ingot and handed it to the other party.

"Thank you very much. The person who led the way accepted the silver ingot with a smile and saluted Elder Liu and Xia Moxuan, and then left quickly.

"I left the folding fan and the person, surnamed Liu, you can go. Elder Liu was about to lead Xia Moxuan into the Library Pavilion when suddenly a loud voice stopped his attempt.

"Master——, yes, Elder Wu, take care. Elder Liu bowed in the direction of the library pavilion with an embarrassed expression and said.

"Get out!" the owner of the voice seemed to be a little impatient.

"Yes, yes. Elder Liu nodded in a low voice, then took out a stack of silver tickets from his cuffs and handed it to Xia Moxuandao: "There are a total of 100,000 taels of silver here, which is regarded as additional compensation from the Zhou family, you can take it." ”

"Thank you. Xia Moxuan was not polite, and directly carried the silver ticket into his arms.

"Small—"

"Don't get out of here!" Elder Liu wanted to say something more to the Library Pavilion, but as soon as he opened his mouth, he was interrupted by the other party, and in desperation, he had to sigh and withdraw from the small courtyard.

"What is the relationship between the two of them?" Xia Moxuan is not a fool, the conversation between the two just now is not like a greeting between old friends, and Elder Liu also calls each other Elder Wu, and Master, Master, the two are likely to have a master-apprentice relationship? Shaking his head, Xia Moxuan didn't think much about it, he bowed to the library and said, "Boy Xia Moxuan, meet Elder Wu." ”

"Come in and talk. "This Elder Wu's attitude towards Xia Moxuan was not as bad as he had been towards Elder Liu before, although there was no kindness and kindness in his tone, there was no suspicion of being vicious and tricky.

"Yes. After Xia Moxuan responded respectfully, he slowly stepped forward and walked into the library pavilion.

"Well, the body is still good, the muscles are well-proportioned, and the breath is restrained, unlike those reckless men who are full of flesh bumps. It was an old man who was lying in a rocking chair reading a book, his temples were white, his complexion was blue, his skin was skinny, his arms were like wood, and his shriveled and wrinkled skin was covered with many corpse-like things.

"Master Wu, I'm ......" Xia Moxuan was about to say something, but was interrupted by Wu Lao.

"Don't be busy calling me master yet, although I promised the waste wood to help you enter the outer door, I haven't promised to accept you as an apprentice. You come to me and hold out your hand, and let me check your qualifications. Wu Lao put down the book in his hand and beckoned to Xia Moxuan.

"Yes. Xia Moxuan didn't talk nonsense, nodded and came to Wu Lao's side, and honestly stretched out his right hand. After taking a deep breath, Wu Lao grabbed Xia Moxuan's outstretched hand, closed his eyes and entered.

"Shhh Although Wu Lao's methods did not cause any harm to Xia Moxuan, they made him feel severe pain. Fortunately, Xia Moxuan was hard, he just took a breath of cold air, if it was replaced by the son of the Zhou family, it is estimated that he would not only shout, but also faint after a while.

"Well, although your qualifications are not too good, but your will is good, so let's do it, old man, I will teach you as usual, as for whether you can learn it, it depends on your own creation, and in the future, don't say that it is my apprentice in front of others, do you understand?" Wu Lao raised his eyes and saw Xia Moxuan's appearance of enduring pain, and said with a slight bow.

"Junior, understood. After feeling the internal force released by Wu Lao, Xia Moxuan knew that the strength of the old man in front of him who was not good-looking should not be underestimated, so after hearing that the other party did not agree to accept him as an apprentice, he did not dare to have any complaints, and still bowed down to show respect.

"Alright, I don't like this, you get up. Wu Lao stopped Xia Moxuan's saluting movement with his hand, and then continued, "Old man, although I didn't accept you as an apprentice, I will teach you wholeheartedly, but you must keep in mind that the path of cultivation is full of difficulties and dangers, and the days of suffering and suffering in the future are gone, if you can't bear it, you can leave now." ”

"The younger generation is not afraid of hardship, not afraid of pain, but only seeks to improve their strength and strengthen their own bodies. Xia Moxuan's eyes were firm, and he said in a solemn voice.

"I can see that your determination to become stronger is very strong, which is very good, I don't ask why, I just hope you keep it until the moment you hit the goal. ”

"Yes!"

"Well, this is it, this book of "Cloud Swallowing Gong" is not only a water attribute exercise, but also has some wood attributes and wind attributes in it, which is very suitable for your physique. Moreover, practicing it to the highest level is enough to reach the middle stage of dissolving the void, which is enough for you to use. After thinking for a while, Wu Lao stretched out his hand and sucked a scroll of scriptures on the bookshelf not far away into his hand.

"Thank you Elder Wu!" Xia Moxuan was overjoyed when he heard that this "Cloud Swallowing Gong" could be cultivated to the realm of dissolving void, and his words trembled a little.

"Look at your little bit of interest. Wu Lao didn't seem to take it seriously at all, and casually threw the "Cloud Swallowing Gong" to Xia Moxuan and then stretched out his hand and began to grab other scriptures, "In addition to the exercises, I will give you six more scriptures of martial arts moves, one of which is the "Body Forging Fist Method", it does not have any powerful moves, but insisting on exercising can strengthen the body, you can practice for an hour every day." ”

After throwing this "Body Forging Fist Method" to Xia Moxuan, Wu Lao grabbed five more scriptures in the air. "The Wild Bull Fist Method" and the "Ginseng Palm Method", these two scriptures are similar to the "Body Forging Fist Method", one of them can increase your strength, the other can flexible your skills, and the moves recorded in them are also good, and they are worth your practice. "Qingzhu Sword Technique", "Howling Wind Palm Technique", "Storm Knife Technique", these three scriptures are all martial arts, although they do not have much connection with your "Cloud Swallowing Gong", but they will not contradict the exercises you practice, and you can practice them appropriately according to your own needs. ”

"Thank you Wu Lao!" Xia Moxuan solemnly took over the scriptures one by one, feeling both surprised and emotional, recalling that he was born and died for those low-end martial arts cheats in the past, Xia Moxuan was very glad that he could make the right decision at a critical moment.

"From now on, you will live in the empty room in the side courtyard, you can take this token, and you will go to the internal affairs office to register and collect your clothes and supplies. ”

"Yes. ”

"By the way, the mountain behind the sect is a forbidden place, you must not enter it, do you know?" Xia Moxuan had already walked to the door, and Wu Lao suddenly added.

"Younger generations remember. ”
