Chapter 107: What is a Sect?
"Xu'er, in your eyes, what is a sect?"
In the evening breeze, the green and yellow leaves swirled and fell from Qiu Xu and Qiong Yezi.
The eyes of both the master and apprentice fell on this leaf, and Qiu Xu frowned and thought in silence.
Qiu Xu has spent as much time as he can remember in this life, to be precise, in the temple that belongs to Qiong Yezi in the shrine. Qiong Yezi only had one apprentice, so he had seen very few people, and there were almost no women.
In his impression, no matter what he needs, as long as he speaks, even if it is excessive, the sect will provide it to him in the shortest possible time.
If he encounters any difficulties, Qiong Yezi will also give advice like his father to help him overcome the difficulties.
And since his titular elder brother won the championship in the men's competition a few years ago, and no one questioned his name as the senior brother of the shrine, he has never encountered any difficulties.
However, Qiu Xu knows very well that all this is because he is the senior brother of the shrine.
So he began to think about the other sects he had seen.
Not much.
Only one, to be exact.
That's Xiaoqingguan.
That day, he took Bai Yujing officials and shrouded Xiao Qingguan like a cloud, and wanted to seal Xiao Qingguan with harsh questions.
He had a pair of eyes that were unique in the world, and he could see through the falsehood, so what did he see at that time?
He saw Chu Yingying's tears, Chonglou's anger, Huang Laoqi's fear, and Jun Jue's worry......
But I didn't see the idea of running away.
As for the moment when Jiang Chou raised his head at the end, he saw a raging flame.
The flames burned on the bodies of everyone in Xiaoqingguan and gathered into a fire.
Later, Jiang Chou broke into the lone wolf road alone for the sake of Xiaoqing's audience, Yan Wenkang took Qin Mu and others to seal Xiaoqingguan for the second time, but none of the people left by Xiaoqingguan flinched, and they held on until Jiang Chou returned and saved everything.
Qiu Xu narrowed his eyes and said, "Sect ...... It's a fire made by a group of people. ”
"Warm each other and burn the enemy."
When the words fell, Qiong Yezi looked at him quietly, his eyes were complicated, and there was both relief and helplessness in his eyes.
Qiong Yezi shook his head lightly, and said with a mocking voice: "If there is really such a sect in this world, I hope you can live there." ”
Qiu Xu frowned, raised his head and said seriously: "Master, this is true, I have seen it." ”
Qiong Yezi naturally didn't believe it in his heart, but he didn't want to break the illusion of his apprentice, thinking of the fragments in the history of the sect that were popularized by the new disciples in the sect, he patted him on the shoulder and said, "Perhaps...... This is really the case with the shrine when it was first established, but Xu'er, you must know that reality is not a history book, let alone a textbook. ”
"When a new sect is formed, it may be really a concerted effort, but people change, especially when they are nourished by such things as power."
Qiu Xu frowned slightly when he heard these words, somehow, he had always respected Qiong Yezi, but he subconsciously thought that Xiao Qingguan would not be like this.
At least...... That little Taoist priest won't.
You should take the master to see it.
"That's it." Qiu Xu just wanted to propose, but Qiong Yezi waved his hand and continued, "The main reason why the master asked you this question is to let you know that this matter has long been known within the sect, but it is absolutely impossible for the sect to come forward for this matter. ”
"The five cities on the twelfth floor are huge, and the factions within it are intricate, even if you are the leader, you can't fully control it."
"Although the Divine Bow is strong, there is only one piece, not to mention the whole world, but also for the Divine Shrine family, it is too little and too little."
"Although you are a senior brother, should the divine bow belong to you? Your junior brothers and sisters and the elders behind them have already been secretly looking for the Divine Bow. As long as they get the Divine Bow, what is the position of you, the senior brother? ”
"You always say that those juniors and sisters are very good to you, but these days, have anyone contacted you to talk about the Divine Bow? Maybe the cases you have handled in Bai Yujing in the past few months have been behind them. The purpose is to make you have no time to care about the bow. ”
"Ji Xinyuan, who is second only to you in the door, has successfully forged a six-grade magic weapon in the past two days, which has won the approval of all the elders, and is a great threat to you."
"Xu'er, if you get the divine bow, you can secure the position of the head of the shrine. Otherwise, for you and me, the master and apprentice, it will be a catastrophe! ”
Qiong Yezi's continuous words made Qiu Xu's already pale face even paler, his fists clenched, and he trembled slightly.
Qiu Xu's cultivation was in the late stage of Jindan, and that Ji Xinyuan was not too weak to him, but he had already been able to successfully forge a six-grade magic weapon, which shows how high that Ji Xinyuan's refining talent was, you must know that Qiu Xu didn't do this before going out! And within the shrine, the talent for refining weapons is sometimes more important than the talent for cultivation.
Then, compared to this, Qiu Xu didn't want to believe that the shrine where he had lived since he was a child was such a cold place.
He also didn't want to believe that those juniors who had been kind and kind in front of him in the past were all ugly grimaces after stripping off the sugar coating.
For months, however, no one asked him how he was doing.
In the end, it was the Tang family who was scolded by himself for being a profiteer who told him about the divine bow.
It's ironic.
Qiu Xu opened his mouth and was speechless.
He has the sharpest eyes in the world, but he still can't see through people's hearts.
In the spring sunset, he was a little cold.
"But Xu'er, don't worry, there are promising teachers, and those little ones will definitely not succeed." Qiong Yezi stared at a pair of white eyebrows, and the sword intent between his eyebrows was like a river.
Qiu Xu is not a person who is sad and sad, and the experience of being alone for several months has also proved that he has a strong ability to adjust, so he took a deep breath and said: "Master, if it is really as you said, the junior disciples must have been acting for several months, how can we catch up with them if we act again at this moment?" ”
"Hehe, Xu'er, you don't know about it." Qiong Yezi said with a smile, "Since ancient times, there have been signs of the birth of treasures, and there are no obvious signs now, which means that there is still time." What's more, treasure hunting, as long as you are not sure where the treasure is, it doesn't make much sense to go in advance. ”
Qiu Xu nodded, in these matters, it was obvious that Qiong Yezi was much more experienced than him.
"What's more, the teacher didn't go out to look for you until today, which naturally brought you a boost!"
Qiong Yezi stretched out his hand, and a bronze compass appeared in his palm, and when the pointer rotated, there was a faint transmission of some strange fluctuations.
"This is a divine bow compass made for the teacher recently, but because the records of the divine bow are really limited, the effective range is only ten miles."
"As long as there is a suspicious divine bow within ten miles, the compass will react."
Qiong Yezi solemnly handed the compass into Qiu Xu's hands.
Qiu Xu looked down and saw that the compass pointer was burning with scorching flames, spinning rapidly, but it could not stop.
……
As soon as Jiang Chou returned to Xiaoqingguan, he didn't even enter the door before he was pulled by Chonglou in front of the deep pit left by him killing Qin Mu with a sword earlier.
"Senior brother, there is a big discovery!" Chonglou said with a glare.
