Chapter 21: I'll Keep Her Behind

Completely different from the magnificent architectural style of the Sixth Courtyard of the Outer Sect, the quiet and elegant of the Inner Sect is eye-catching. After Chen Xi arrived at the Inner Sect, he pretended to be a little curious and looked around, but in fact, he was quite familiar with this place. Although he was only four years old when he left, he was extremely naughty at that time, running around the inner sect all day long.

Because he is the child of the sect master, he doesn't have to worry about getting lost.

Wherever you go, there are people secretly protecting you.

Ten years later, seeing these buildings again feels like a world away.

The inner sect buildings are mostly wooden houses and bamboo houses. This inner sect was originally in a large bamboo forest, and the scenery was exceptionally beautiful. The largest building in the Inner Sect is the Lingyun Hall built on the cliff halfway. It will only be opened when the sect master convenes the sect elders and the dean to discuss the matter, and the disciples are not allowed to enter.

In the bamboo forest, from time to time, there is a wooden house and bamboo house in front of you, all of which are independent courtyards. This is different from the disciples of the outer sect who live together, and the disciples of the inner sect have their own "home".

Chen Xi often ran around when he was a child, so he knew that these simple-looking wooden houses and bamboo houses were actually quite luxuriously decorated. In each room, the furniture is mainly made of sandalwood, and the cups, plates, and chopsticks used are all silverware. This is because it is said that silver is the cleanest, and who can say whether this is the case or not.

Behind the bamboo forest is a cliff with a waterfall falling from the sky. The waterfall is extremely wide, about 50 meters long, and it is magnificent.

Below the waterfall is a small lake that flows down the mountain. The river runs through the bamboo forest and is clear and thorough.

Here, it is refreshing.

Yuan Fenglei walked in front of Du Meng, who had broken his appearance, and it could be seen that he hated Chen Xi to the core. Chen Xi didn't bother to pay attention to them, and walked side by side with Ding Mei, still more than ten meters behind those two people. This was Ding Mei's first time in Neizong, so he also seemed a little nervous.

Speaking of which, if Chen Xi hadn't entered the inner courtyard as her disciple, she wouldn't have had a chance to come in and have a look. Dean Zhou arranged this way to let her know more. Or maybe something else.

When Chen Xi walked to the small river deep in the bamboo forest, he looked up along the river. I saw the waterfall on the cliff in the distance, and the bamboo and wood building built on a boulder next to the waterfall. The small building has three floors, built according to the rocks, and looks exceptionally thin and steep, but very solid.

There, it's called Purple Qi Donglai Pavilion.

Once upon a time, it was the place where his father handled the affairs of the sect.

Now, it has long since changed hands.

"What are you going to do with the person who picked you up in a moment?"

Ding Mei stepped forward and pouted.

Chen Xi looked at Du Meng, who was a down-and-out wolf in front of him, and smiled: "No one will explain to me, just come out casually and two disciples are so obedient, obviously the atmosphere of the inner sect is like this." Maybe...... The Inner Sect does not even prohibit disciples from competing with each other. Besides, I don't believe that when the two people before were embarrassed for me, the teachings or elders of the inner sect couldn't see it. Since they allowed those two to make things difficult for me, what reason do they have to worry that I hurt one of them?"

Ding Mei sighed slightly: "I really don't know what you think, and I don't know anything about you." I just think that you should be a poor person, who would have thought that it would be a ......"

"A genius?"

Chen Xi took it and asked.

Ding Mei nodded.

Chen Xi said: "In fact, the biggest gap between genius and mediocrity lies in oneself. ”

After saying this, Chen Xiruo glanced at Ding Mei meaningfully: "The two of them said that you are a mediocre person, but is this really the case? You did not enter the inner sect to cultivate, and you relied on your own efforts to reach the realm of breaking the void in the Qingwu Academy...... That's mediocrity, so you didn't enter the Inner Sect in the first place, but there was another reason, right? It's just that for this reason, you don't want to mention it to anyone. ”

Chen Xi saw that Ding Mei's face had changed significantly, and it was a very complicated feeling.

She turned her head away from looking at Chen Xi.

Chen Xi didn't continue to ask, this was a past that she didn't want to be mentioned in her heart, and she knew by looking at her expression that it must be a past that made her unhappy, so Chen Xi knew that she couldn't continue to ask. He smiled at Chen Xi and was extremely gentle: "Actually, sometimes although the old man is stubborn and backward, there is still some truth in some words...... For example, Zhou Jiuzhi said to me that you can't stop and linger on the path of cultivation, because once you stop, you will miss the more magnificent scenery ahead. ”

"It depends...... What do you value. ”

Ding Mei replied in a very light tone.

"What's important?"

When he heard this, Chen Xi couldn't help but think of the stunning woman named Liu Xichen. I thought of the boundless grassland, and the sunset on the high slope.

"Hmm"

Ding Mei didn't notice the change in Chen Xi's eyes, she said in a low voice as she walked: "If what you value is cultivation, then naturally there is no need to stop for the scenery on the way. But if you love the scenery here, do you care if the scenery in front of you is beautiful or not? That's all you love...... Nothing else. ”

Chen Xi felt that he suddenly understood Ding Mei's suffering.

That must be an unbeautiful story.

So some slight anger in his heart came out involuntarily.

Ding Mei is a kind woman, a good woman. So...... The reason why Ding Mei's story is not beautiful is definitely not because of Ding Mei. Chen Xi then thought of something, so he was a little angry.

But this anger was quickly put aside by him.

Because he doesn't have the extra energy to think about other people's stories now...... He also has to write his own story seriously.

......

......

As Chen Xi expected, no one pursued the fact that he injured Du Meng on the way. And after Du Meng and Yuan Fenglei took him and Ding Mei outside a courtyard, they left directly without saying a word. This is a courtyard that seems to occupy a large area, and unlike other single-courtyard buildings, there are more than a dozen rows of houses in front of and behind here, which should be a place for disciples to study.

Standing at the gate of this large courtyard were two old men who looked very kind and one who was particularly unkind.

The two looked very kind and smiling, one tall and one short, tall and thin and fat. But the smiles on the faces of the two people are very similar, and the two of them give people a very special temperament, as if these two people who have no resemblance in appearance are brothers.

In fact, they are indeed brothers.

"You are the future genius Chen Xi under my disciple? hehe...... In the future, you can follow me, my name is Chen Tianji, and I am the most capable and strongest teacher of the Inner Sect. This is Chen Diji, and he is the second strongest teacher in the Inner Sect, second only to me. We all saw your shot at Du Meng in the Confused Forest just now, and it was really beautiful. Defeating Du Meng with the cultivation of the first product of the broken void and the second grade of the broken void, it is rare!

The tall, thin old man said with a smile, although he really wanted to put on a particularly amiable expression, but because he was too thin, that expression was greatly reduced on his face.

The short and fat old man glared at the thin and tall old man and said to Chen Xi, "I am the strongest sect in the Inner Sect, and he is the second. As for the guy next to him with a cold face, you can automatically ignore it. He is the most boring teaching in the entire inner sect, and his cultivation is so ordinary. ”

Chen Xi first saluted respectfully, and then glanced at the three of them.

The tall and thin and stocky old man obviously wanted him to come into his sect to practice. So at first, it seemed a little chattery, but it was also sincere. Chen Xi always felt that these two people were familiar, and he had some impressions, but after searching his memory, he didn't find any information about these two people.

And the old man with a medium stature, a somewhat gray head, a square face, and angry sword eyebrows has not said a word. There was a chill all over his body, and he stood there like a murderous javelin. It can be seen that this is an old man who does not smile, and he is about fifty years old.

Don't be angry.

"Wait...... Three gentlemen. ”

Chen Xi leaned over slightly again: "Excuse me, which gentleman am I practicing with?"

Chen Tianji immediately said: "Can't you see it? I just came to pick you up on the order of the sect master, now as long as you nod your head, you can go with me, I promise to make you reborn within a year and become the top ten of the inner sect!"

The short and fat Chen Diji immediately stopped in front of Chen Tianji and said to Chen Xi: "He is talking nonsense, the sect master didn't let him pick you up at all, but let me come." He is simply here to make a fuss, his disciples are already full, and it is impossible to accept any more disciples, so you should go with me, I am the sect master selected for you. Don't worry, within a year, I will make you the top five in the Inner Sect!"

After Chen Xi listened, he subconsciously looked at the cold and arrogant old man.

The old man still didn't say a word, just looked Chen Xi up and down.

"I get it......"

Chen Xi suddenly smiled: "Actually, the sect master didn't designate which gentleman to teach me at all, right? ”

Chen Tianji's face was slightly ugly and he smiled: "How is it possible? When did the Inner Sect have a precedent for disciples to choose to teach and practice?"

Chen Diji also said: "That's right, that's right, the two of them just accompanied me to see you." ”

As he was talking, the cold old man suddenly grabbed Chen Xi's arm and strode back. Chen Tianji and Chen Diji were startled, and their figures flashed and stopped in front of the cold old man. Chen Tianji pointed at the old man and said loudly, "Gao Qingshu, what do you mean by this?" The sect master just asked the three of us to come together, and didn't say who had to take him away!"

Chen Diji said: "You can't be unreasonable, let him choose by himself!"

Chen Xi smiled in his heart, sure enough.

The old man named Gao Qingshu snorted coldly: "You two, but you are letting him choose?"

Chen Diji said: "Naturally, he is chosen, but he will definitely not choose you." You see, our two brothers are surnamed Chen, and he is also surnamed Chen, this is the fate that has long been destined. ”

Gao Qingshu didn't bother to say anything more, and pulled Chen Xi to continue walking. The Chen brothers immediately stopped again, and the two of them looked really anxious.

"Rather than choosing this way, it would be more straightforward. ”

Gao Qingshu asked Chen Xi to stand behind him, pulled up his cuffs and said coldly: "After the fight, you can fight?"

The Chen brothers were obviously stunned, you look at me, I look at you, I don't know what to do.

"Don't fight?"

Gao Qingshu asked, pulling Chen Xi to continue walking: "Then he had to choose me." ”

As a party, Chen Xi was robbed like this, obviously a little uncomfortable. He followed Gao Qingshu for a few steps and saw the ugly faces of the Chen brothers. Seeing Chen Xi looking at him, the Chen brothers shook their heads at the same time: "It's not that we can't beat him, but ...... It's that everyone in the inner sect doesn't know that Gao Qingshu is simply a mad dog when he fights. ”

Gao Qingshu was said to be a mad dog by the Chen brothers, and he was not angry, so he snorted coldly and continued to walk forward.

"That...... Wait a minute. ”

Chen Xi suddenly broke free of Gao Qingshu's hand and pointed to Ding Mei, who was standing behind him at a loss: "She came with me, if you accept her, I will practice with you." ”

Gao Qingshu's eyes flashed with a hint of fierceness, he looked at Chen Xi, then at Ding Mei and shook his head: "No." ”

Chen Xi took two steps back, sat down on a stone and said, "Then I can't say it's okay." ”

Gao Qingshu obviously didn't expect Chen Xi to be like this, and the corners of his eyes moved a few times, he should be a little angry. Ding Mei walked over quickly, squatted beside Chen Xi and lowered his voice to persuade eagerly, but Chen Xi just shook his head.

"Good!"

Gao Qingshu nodded suddenly: "I promise you, but you have to remember...... If you want to blackmail the teacher, I will settle this account later. Other than that...... She stayed...... Not necessarily a good thing. ”
