Ji Ye followed Qin He through the Taiqing Palace, walked down the long steps and meandered, and came to a wide square.

This is what Uncle Shi called Tai Chi Square, Ji Ye thought to himself.

There is a palace on the south side of the square, and there is a path on the east and west sides of the side, Qin He led Ji Ye to the residence of Zhuo Fengming and his disciples, vacated a remote hut for Ji Ye to live in, and said to Ji Ye that in the future, even if he was a preparatory disciple of the master, he would only have to do two years of miscellaneous labor in the Taoist temple before he could officially apprentice.

After that, Qin He took a robe and asked Ji Ye to fill the water tank behind the house.

Ji Ye secretly slandered, isn't this just a lie to work for you in the Pure Yang Palace, prepare disciples, hum, I don't know how much strength this Zhuo Dao Chang has as an old man and a senior uncle. Thinking about it, I still changed my robe and picked up water.

Before leaving, Qin He instructed Ji Ye that the places around Taiji Square could be reached, but the path on the other side should not be stepped on.

The rest of the day and night wore Taoist robes and wandered around, which could be regarded as looking for some clues to the beads, some of the disciples of this Pure Yang Palace were better, and some saw that Ji Ye was a new face and commanded.

But after half a day, I can't even see the shadow of a bead, Ji Ye can't help but think to myself, I'm afraid I have to go to the forbidden area of another path to find it, but Uncle Shi They came to find a bead on purpose, what is the use of this bead?

Finally, at noon, after Ji Ye avoided people and came to the square, there was a very old cypress tree here, covering the sky and extending beyond the cliff on the top of the mountain.

Ji Ye stood under the tree, there was silence all around, and suddenly two figures jumped down from the tree, Ji Ye was startled, and looked at it Sure enough, it was Uncle Shi and Wei Jing.

Lin Xuanjian laughed and said: "The kid has changed into a Taoist robe, and he looks like a Taoist priest, what do you think, Wei Jing?" ”

Wei Jing nodded in agreement.

Ji Ye said angrily: "This Pure Yang Palace doesn't teach skills, first asked someone to do two years of miscellaneous labor, I don't know if this Pure Yang Master has great ability, if it wasn't for just a few days of lurking here, he would have opened his Taoist temple." ”

Hearing his words, Wei Jing was rarely a little displeased, but he still said patiently: "This is to hone the mind, and it is also an extremely important part, I was the same back then, I swept the fallen leaves and snow on the Laojun Palace for three years, and the master officially accepted me to get started, little master, not everyone has such luck." ”

In the middle of the conversation, Lin Xuanjian interrupted him impatiently, and said to Ji Ye: "Don't listen to him, boy, these so-called monks on the mountain have this kind of arrogance of looking down on the world, but I don't know who to find to make up for the wasted two or three years?" As for the mind, it depends on oneself. But his pure yang master is indeed like a cloud, and he is not a deception of the world. ”

Ji Ye remembered that Zhuo Yunping's strength was not mediocre, and he wondered: "That junior surnamed Zhuo's swordsmanship is really mediocre, is their top senior stronger than Uncle Shi?" ”

Lin Xuanjian said: "These so-called famous and decent families have paid less and less attention to the cultivation of their juniors in recent years, but they are very persistent in fighting for power and profit, but this generation of pure yang seven sons can all be regarded as a single party, their senior brother, this generation of pure yang head Li Wusheng Although his talent is mediocre, but he is extremely diligent, compared to ordinary people, he has worked several times hard, he was already a master of the eighth layer of the heart forty years ago, at that time I and my senior brother, with him and his senior brother Xie Yunliu had a battle. ”

Ji Ye was very curious and interjected, "What is the final result?" ”

Lin Xuan's eyes pursed his lips and said dishappily: "Senior brother and I were only newly entering the eighth layer at that time, and the senior brother barely defeated Xie Yunliu with his swordsmanship, while the old man was defeated by Li Wusheng after a thousand moves. ”

Ji Ye showed a restrained look on his face, and didn't dare to mention it again, but changed his words and said: "Their Pure Yang Palace's mental martial arts are actually stronger than our nameless sword skills?" ”

Lin Xuanjian scolded slightly: "Fart, fart, it's all fart, what do you kid know, the two of them were nearly seventy years old at that time, and my senior brother and I were only thirty-five or sixteen, and I was twice as old as I was, who do you say is more powerful in mental martial arts?" Compared with the two of us, it's just taking advantage of the age, and if the old man is his age, maybe he has broken through the boundary. ”

Ji Ye was even more surprised and muttered: "That's no wonder, it's just forty years ago... Isn't this Li Wangsheng more than a hundred years old now? ”

Lin Xuanjian nodded and responded: "Exactly, that old thing was sixty-nine years old forty years ago, and today it is one hundred and nine years old, and now the head of the Pure Yang Sect has not been replaced, so it can be seen that he is still alive in the world." It's just that his senior brother Xie Yunliu has not been traced since the end of that war shortly after, and the position of head can only fall on Li Wangsheng's head, but unfortunately his senior brother Xie Yunliu is amazingly talented, and if he lives to this day, he must be the first in the world. ”

Ji Ye nodded slowly, and with the arrogance of his uncle, he must be worthy of the name if he can get this evaluation in his mouth.

Lin Xuanjian seemed unwilling to mention Li Wusheng more, and urged: "Okay, there is a scripture building on the back peak in the south, you kid will go there with Wei Jing, and if someone sees you, you can also take care of you and get out." Then he said no more and disappeared into the night.

Ji Ye and Wei Jing hid their bodies along the path, all the way unimpeded, Ji Ye looked much more relaxed, and couldn't help but ask Wei Jing what the bead was.

Wei Jing said: "The bead is called the Ruyi Pearl, according to legend, it is the personal artifact of the Holy Emperor thousands of years ago, and it can shine within a zhang without the light of the sun and the moon, but no one has seen it with their own eyes, and even whether the rumors are true is not known." ”

"If no one has seen it, it must be looking for a needle in a haystack." Ji Ye said dejectedly.

While speaking, the two of them had come to the bottom of the scripture building, and they wanted to knock the disciples on duty unconscious, but when they were about to make a move, they saw that the two disciples were already lying on the wooden table motionless.

Ji Ye said in his heart that the disciple on duty was inevitably too loose, and he slept soundly in the middle of the night, but when he thought of the two years of miscellaneous labor, he didn't feel like that.

Wei Jing has always been cautious in doing things, but he still stepped forward to make up for the back of their necks, turned to Ji Ye and said, "Young Master, you can go to the top floor first, let's look at it separately." ”

Ji Ye was still very unaccustomed to this change of title, but now he called Lin Jingjian uncle, and he could no longer call Wei Jing uncle, so he answered the call and climbed the winding staircase.

Walking lightly to the top floor, looking at the shelves of bookcases that could not be seen, Ji Ye thought to himself that since the beads were shining, they must be hidden in some box, otherwise wouldn't it be more eye-catching, so he lowered his body and flipped over.

Shuttling through the bookcase by the moonlight, but there are only books here after all, the cover reads "Shangqing Tang Yuan Zhen Sutra", "Dong Xuan Ling Bao Dingguan Sutra Commentary" and the like, open the content of the words on the top of the words are almost recognized, but the group together I don't know what it means, and the scriptures in the 'Great Day Burning Yu Jue' are a little similar.
