18 Chapter XVIII
In this ancestor worship ceremony, there were a total of nine inner disciples in the Feng Pavilion, including Qin Gu and Ji Yun, and Ye Yuqing was also among them.
According to the rules, the day before the unveiling ceremony, all the disciples would board the fairy boat and rest in their respective rooms to prepare for the unveiling ceremony.
Qin Gu arrived early, and when all nine disciples arrived, he took the lead in walking towards the Protector Sect Great Array.
He injected spiritual power into the master's tokenβwhich Qin Rulian had left himβand the red light suddenly flourished, resonating with the magic circles around him;
In the trembling of heaven and earth, a long golden ladder rose from the ground, extending all the way up into the clouds.
The golden light illuminated Qin Gu's eyes as bright as stars, and he withdrew his gaze, his heart shocked.
This is the ladder to the immortal boat, usually only the five great families are qualified to open, only during the ancestor worship ceremony, other immortal doors under the jurisdiction of the family can open the ladder in their own sect.
At the end of the ladder is the immortal boat that countless monks have been looking for.
There are a total of 9981 steps of the ladder, and the monks can use light skills to climb the ladder, of course, they can also choose to climb the stairs.
The other disciples all jumped up, but Qin Gu wanted to experience the feeling of walking, so he walked calmly for most of the time, and waited until the entrance of the immortal boat was faintly visible, and then he jumped up.
As soon as he stepped on the ground, a huge coercion struck in an instant, and the boundless solemnity was shrouded in the entire immortal boat.
This is the majesty of the Innocent Immortal Venerable.
Qin Gu stretched out his hand, his five fingers were retracted and grasped, and the spiritual breath flowed in his fingertips, like a tripped electric lamp, and it went out with a "snap".
This is the most special feature of Xianzhou.
Perhaps because the power of the Mahayana period was too terrifying, the immortal boat, as a part of the soul of the Immortal Venerable, instinctively suppressed the monks who boarded the boat.
Below the out-of-body period, he is no different from a mortal on the fairy boat; Someone as close as Qin Gu to the Transformation God can use some spiritual power, but he can't use all his strength; The transformation period is better, and the merger period is able to move freely.
This is also why the ancestor worship ceremony requires a blacksmith shop to make iron tools, and they can't urge magic weapons.
There are disciples of the Duty Division on the Xianzhou to guide them, and they will be brought to the assembly place to receive their respective tokens first.
Drinking Fengge Pavilion came neither early nor late, and quickly got the token from the person in charge.
An exaggerated cry sounded in his ears: "Yo, isn't this the famous Young Alliance Master, I've seen the Young Alliance Master." β
Qin Gu followed the voice and looked over, it was a monk wearing a mask who spoke, and as he spoke, a black eagle landed on his shoulder and glanced at Qin Gu.
Qin Gu saw a deep disdain in the eyes of the black eagle, and was speechless for a while.
The original body pretended to be a righteous gentleman in front of outsiders, and he would never reveal the slightest bit of his true nature, and after ruling out the possibility of seeking revenge, the person in front of him was obviously just looking for fault.
Qin Gu stared at his mask, the mask covered the upper half of the monk's face tightly, only revealing the black moire on the center of his eyebrows, his clothes were extremely exotic, his feet were β‘β‘, not like the Central Plains.
Looking at the entire cultivation realm, there is only one sect that would dress up like this.
One of the five great families, Yuecheng Turbid Cloud Valley.
The disciples of Turbidity Cloud Valley never show their true faces, they are good at using poison and controlling beasts, each disciple has their own partner spirit beast, and it is obvious that this huge black eagle is this person's partner spirit beast.
Qin Gu smiled: "I really don't dare to be famous, I am lonely and unheard, but I have never heard of Your Excellency's name, dare to ask Your Excellency?" β
The monk was stunned for a moment, and then spoke a little more annoyed: "You dare to say that I am unknown?!" β
The reaction was quite fast, Qin Gu blinked innocently: "Don't dare." β
He really didn't know this man.
Around them, many young monks lined up to see the excitement and laughed when they heard the words.
The exposed half of the Turbidity Cloud Valley monk's face was flushed with anger, and he shook off the hand of the same door, and sighed: "I want to see what qualifications you have to be the leader of this young alliance!" β
When the words fell, the black eagle flapped its wings and flew high, turning into a swift black shadow and attacking Qin Gu, Qin Gu subconsciously blocked his face, but the black eagle flew over his waist with a tilt, Qin Gu only felt a weight on his waist, and then lowered his head, the token had been caught by the black eagle.
The monk of Turbidity Cloud Valley laughed: "Before the autumn hunt has started, your token has been taken away by me, Qin Juanzhi, you might as well withdraw from the competition!" Don't embarrass the Immortal League! β
The ancestor worship ceremony is both communication and competition, and only the defeated monks will have tokens in the hands of other sects.
After laughing, the Turbidity Cloud Valley monk saw that Qin Gu was still standing in place, neither angry nor snatching the token back, and looked around a little suspiciously: "Why don't you come and grab it?" Is it because you're afraid? β
Qin Gu smiled, and said in his heart, wouldn't it really be a primary school student to grab it with you.
His face was still calm: "The ancestor worship ceremony has not yet begun, if Your Excellency wants to learn from me, when we hunt in autumn..."
Before he could finish speaking, the black hawk suddenly let out a terrible scream, shook in the air a few times, and fell straight down;
As soon as the claws were loosened, Qin Gu's token also fell, and with a gust of wind behind him, the token was intercepted by Ji Yun's volley.
The black eagle fell at his feet, Ji Yun didn't even look at it, walked back slowly, and returned the token to Qin Gu with both hands.
He turned around again and looked at the stunned monk: "Lin Yin, is that what you can do?" β
Qin Gu's smile froze on his face, and his heart was filled with joy and sorrow.
The joy is that the protagonist stands up for him, and he has an excitement of hugging the protagonist's thigh;
Sadly, he finally remembered who this Turbidity Valley monk was in front of him.
Lin Yin, whose name is shocking, is the son of the former valley lord of Turbidity Cloud Valley and the nephew of the current valley lord.
The former valley lord of Turbidity Cloud Valley was a strong contender for the leader of the Immortal Alliance, but later failed to rush through the level and died in an explosion;
In other words, if the previous valley lord did not die, maybe the position of the young alliance lord would be Lin Yin's.
That's why he has thorny sentences, but there are traces to follow.
Lin Yin was angry, and hugged the black eagle "you" for a long time, looking like he wanted to die with Ji Yun.
Qin Gu hurriedly dragged Ji Yun behind him: "Senior Brother Lin, you take my token in public, and my junior brother takes it back, and when we come and go, we are even." β
Lin Yin: ...
You call this flattening?!
Qin Gu quickly added: "Several heads are nearby, if this matter is big, I'm afraid that not only will I, the leader of the Young Alliance, be embarrassed, but also have a dull face, I have the best medicine for injuries here, Senior Brother Lin will take it first, and it is important to treat the injuries of the spirit beast." β
He had taken a step back and took the initiative to administer the medicine, that is, to admit that his side was more at fault, and to analyze the pros and cons clearly, Lin Yin seemed to want to argue, but in the end he was stopped by the other disciples of Turbidity Cloud Valley, and took the medicine angrily, and said viciously: "You wait for me!" β
Qin Gu nodded: "See you tomorrow." β
The cruel words were interpreted as reluctant, Lin Yin stumbled, glared at Qin Gu angrily, and finally left with the black eagle in his arms.
Qin Gu breathed a sigh of relief, and the onlookers all said goodbye when they saw that the show was over.
The tokens were distributed randomly, and the residences of the nine people in the Drinking Maple Pavilion were not all in the same place, Qin Gu told the others a few words, and especially instructed them to avoid disputes with Turbidity Cloud Valley, so they also disbanded on the spot.
Coincidentally, he and Ji Yun lived in the same courtyard, and the two walked side by side, when Ji Yun suddenly stopped him: "Senior brother." β
Qin Gu turned his head, seeing that his brows were frowning slightly, his lips were pursed, and he guessed what he was going to say: "Lin Yin is indeed excessive, it's good to teach him a lesson, this matter is not taken care of by the Turbid Cloud Valley, they won't want to make a big fuss." β
Ji Yun's eyebrows loosened, and he let out a soft "um", Qin Gu thought about it, reached out and pressed the top of his hair, and rubbed it.
Ji Yun's pitch-black pupils shook for a moment, Qin Gu was amused by his reaction, and laughed for a long time before he said with a straight face: "Senior brother's falcon kung fu is good, it seems that the leader of the autumn hunt must be my Fengfeng Pavilion." β
He waved his hand and motioned for Ji Yun to go back to the room, and he also took two steps towards the room.
Behind him, Ji Yun asked, "Senior brother, don't you blame me for being too impulsive?" β
Qin Gu didn't look back: "It's good that you know that you're impulsive, why do I blame you?" β
With that, he pushed the door open and entered.
The courtyard for the young monks to rest is similar to the courtyard house, which is much more spacious than expected, and the bedding and tea set are all brand new, and the entrance is marked with a wooden sign to prevent anyone from entering by mistake.
Well prepared indeed.
Qin Gu pushed open a window facing the courtyard and saw an ornamental tree with a crooked neck dropping leaves in the wind.
He stared at the leaves, his thoughts drifting farther than the leaves.
For a while, I thought of Lu Mi's expressionless and cold face, for a while, I thought of Lin Yin's unconvinced face, and finally, in the dream many years ago, the eyes of the Demon Venerable Ji Yun were full of murderous intent and banter.
Thinking of Ji Yun, he suddenly looked to the other side with a blessed heart, and through the layers of leaves of the crooked neck tree, he saw Ji Yun push open the window, and he looked at him at first sight.
Ji Yun seemed to be stunned for a moment, and then the corners of his lips hooked up a little, and he opened his mouth silently, and called: Senior brother.
The face of the protagonist is indifferent and lonely when he has no expression, once he laughs, the ice and snow melt, the spring breeze and rain are still out of reach, and all the adjectives whistle through Qin Gu's heart, and in the end, only the most straightforward word "beauty" remains.
Beauty has nothing to do with men and women, and the young man who smiles at himself in front of him is really beautiful.
Qin Gu's heartbeat skipped a beat, and he suddenly understood the mood of the ancient heroes who were angry at the crown.
He raised his hand to cover half of his face, and the skin touched by his fingertips was slightly hot.
