The next morning, Bei Jiuliang came to see Liangya, but Liangya had already gone on the road alone and only left a letter to Liangyu, Liangyu felt that his son was too vulnerable, but he felt that if Liangya went out for a walk and saw the world clearly, he might be able to understand why he was crusading and fighting everywhere to unify Beibang, if this was not a good thing, so he didn't stop it. Bei Jiuliang ate a closed door soup in Liangcheng, and then went on the road with Ming Qi to the demon capital, at this time Lu Li was still taking Mingyang and Xiaoman to find the secret realm of the demon world by feeling.

Shushan conducted the first academic evaluation, Bai Ruiji took the lead, and Zhiyue ranked last.

There was a crowd in front of the list, Zhiyue can be said to have found the last one from the first one, her mood also changed from the initial nervousness to low, and she even wanted to cry sadly, and her eyes were really red when she saw that she was the last one. She remembered that everyone in the human world praised her for her intelligence, and the three former masters were reluctant to let her go to a bigger world, saying that they could no longer teach her anything. At that time, Zhi Yue felt that she was the most suitable person for cultivation in the whole world, and she would be proud of the crowd after all, but now: last place! Zhi Yue took a quick look at Bai Rui Ji at the top of the list, she was congratulated by everyone, but she just nodded with a smile and turned to leave, as if she Bai Rui Ji was born to be the first place, and she didn't even need to say a few polite words.

Zhiyue glanced at the list again, the fifth hundredth: Zhiyue. She pushed aside the crowd and left, and secretly made up her mind to be on the first list! As soon as she got out of the crowd, she saw Senior Brother Yunshi come up and say, "Zhiyue, Master is looking for you." Zhiyue's heart sank, and she couldn't wait to leave Shushan immediately, "Zhiyue, hurry up, Master is waiting for you." As soon as Senior Brother Yunshi urged, Zhiyue had to keep up with heavy steps.

Senior Brother Yunshi walked to the door, and Zhiyue had to enter the hall by himself, and saw the third elder Li Yi standing in the middle with a solemn expression. Zhi Yue saluted, "Master." ”

"Zhiyue, there is something for you as a teacher, don't get excited after you hear it. ”

Zhi Yue didn't wait for Li Yi to say that she was already very excited, "Master, I know that Shushan has a rule for the elimination of the last place, but I, I've really worked hard! Master, please give me another chance, I will definitely step up my studies, and I will never take the last place next time! Master, Master, please!"

"Zhi Yue, Zhi Yue. Li Yi saw that Zhiyue's emotions were about to get out of control, so he hurriedly stopped it, "It's not about this matter that the teacher wants to say, besides, Shushan does have a last-place elimination system, but not the last-place will be eliminated, and there will be a lot of standards and reviews, which are very strict, and they won't easily eliminate anyone." Besides, your hard work as a teacher is in the eyes, how can you be eliminated. ”

Zhiyue's heart finally let go when she heard this, "Then, what is the master looking for me?"

Li Yi's expression became solemn again, "Zhiyue, you know that our cultivators have pure hearts and few desires, and the seven emotions and six desires are gradually cut off, but there are some feelings that are really difficult to let go. Zhiyue, if you rank in the immortal class in the future, you will live for a long time, and the love and affection you once had are like a cloud of smoke, but it is just a drop in the ocean, after all, it is an extremely small existence in your life journey. ”

"Master?"

"Three years ago, your father was injured by a wild beast when he went up the mountain to cut wood, and he died half a month later. More than half a year ago, your mother became seriously ill and died soon after. Because you have been practicing outside, these news have been going on for a long time, and finally came to Shushan, Zhiyue, this is the death certificate issued by the official government of the human world, and the burial place. Li Yi handed over the letter to Zhi Yue that had been going around for more than half a year, the envelope was even slightly yellow, Zhi Yue couldn't believe it, she took the letter mechanically, opened it and saw that the two death certificates inside were exactly what Li Yi said, and there was a detailed map of the burial location. Zhiyue's hands trembled, and she finally cried, "Dad, mother!"

Li Yi has been teaching and practicing the immortal method in Shushan for hundreds of years, and he has also notified the cultivators from the human world that their parents have returned many times, and he seems to have been used to these for a long time, but he is not numb. Li Yi walked over and stood next to Zhiyue, "Zhiyue, you have just two relatives in the human world, if you want to go back and see as a teacher, I can give you two days off, but if you don't want to, it's nothing." You have nothing to do with the human world from now on, so you should concentrate on cultivation from now on, and don't think about anything else. ”

Zhi Yue endured it, folded the letter, and sobbed: "Master, it is also my parents' expectation that I can come to Shushan to practice, I will definitely cultivate hard, become an immortal as soon as possible, and live up to Master's expectations." ”

"It's good if you have this realization. Only then did Li Yi put his mind at ease, and took out the style of a strict master again, "But Zhiyue, your test this time is indeed a little unsatisfactory, you have to work hard!"

"Master, don't worry, I won't be the last next time!"

Zhiyue walked out of the hall with the death notice of her parents and the burial place in her hand, and her heart was mixed. When she was five years old, Zhiyue was playing a game of eagle catching chickens with children at the entrance of the village, I don't know if it was because she was an eagle, and a Taoist Changleng said that she was a celestial. Zhiyue's mother thought that she was a madman from somewhere, and just about to pull Zhiyue home, the Taoist told all the members of Zhiyue's parents' family one by one, and even said clearly when and how she died, and even said that Zhiyue's family once had a Taoist priest and three monks.

"Oh, it's really a god, then the monk is okay, after all, it's been a matter of the past few years, that Taoist priest is my man's great-ancestor, no one in the living knows about it at all, Daoist can calculate this?"

The old man looked at Zhiyue, who was shy and shy and hiding behind his mother, "This child will be in the immortal class sooner or later, and he will fulfill the grand wish that your ancestors have not been able to fulfill." ”

"Oh, really?" Zhiyue's mother, Wang, was just an ordinary peasant woman, and when she heard that her child was about to come out, she was naturally elated and speechless, "That Dao chief, does this child have to practice? Then, it is better to worship you as a teacher." ”

Zhiyue tried her best to live in the corner of her mother's clothes, but Lao Dao laughed, "She is not something that ordinary people can teach, she has her big world." ”

The Wang clan didn't know what the big world was, but it was right to understand that this old Dao didn't plan to accept Zhiyue, "Then, hey, Dao Chief, you said that our Zhiyue can rank in the immortal class, and you don't want to accept her as an apprentice, so how can she practice? You're not lying to me, are you?"

"Hahaha, children have their own opportunities, and you can't be hasty before the time comes. After speaking, the Taoist chief floated away, but Wang had been thinking about it in his heart.

"You too, everyone has said so, why don't you ask the Taoist to come to the house and ask carefully, this won't delay the child. Zhiyue's father heard about it and blamed Wang.

"The Taoist chief has said that the opportunity has not arrived, what else can I do?"

"By chance, we are in this ravine every day, and we can still meet the old immortals. ”

"Then you are a hunter, where are we not going in the mountains? There is no chewing outside, and the whole family will drink the northwest wind!"

"You just have long hair and short knowledge, what's the matter, I'm hungry for you? You stupid woman! Delay my daughter to become an immortal, you see I won't kill you!"

"You beat you, you beat! I have no ability to hide in this poor ravine, and I still beat my wife and children, you have no ability, my woman will become an immortal, a fart!"

Zhiyue's father listened to his mother's words, and he was even more angry, and he started to move, and the young Zhiyue was crying, but her father and mother couldn't take care of her anymore, and scuffled together, and finally Wang was beaten to a blue nose and swollen face, and sat in the yard with Zhiyue angry. "Mother, mother, the more obedient Zhi is, the more Zhi doesn't go out, the more Zhi doesn't go out!" Zhi Yue comforted the Wang family with tears in her eyes, but the Wang family couldn't let her, "No, the Taoist has said that you will become an immortal in the future, and leave you bastard father with your mother!"

"You still dare to instigate my woman! Zhi Yue come over!" Zhi Yue's father pulled Zhi Yue when he came up, and the Wang family naturally didn't want to let go, so the two adults pulled the child like this. After all, the five-year-old Zhiyue has tender arms and legs, and she can't stand the pull of the two adults, and both arms are dislocated, Zhiyue is crying even more heartbreakingly, and the adults think that the other party is unwilling to let go so that Zhiyue cries, so they are even more angry and start to move again. "Mother, mother, father, mother!" Zhiyue lost sensation in her arm and didn't dare to move, so she stood in the courtyard in a staggered position and shouted hoarsely. Finally, the neighbor's aunt, who was standing outside the fence wall and watching the excitement, noticed the abnormality of Zhiyue's arm, "You two don't fight, look at your child, why is your arm like this!"

Zhiyue's parents finally found out that their daughter was injured, and hurriedly hugged Zhiyue to find the doctor, but in the deep ravine, the doctor's medical skills were too limited to get his arm back, "You hurry up and go to the town, there is a good doctor there, I really can't cure this here, you go quickly, it's too late, and you will always be disabled." ”

Zhiyue's father rode his horse, pulling the reins with one hand and driving Zhiyue to the town with the other, and the doctor in the town looked at Zhiyue and then at the anxious adult, "How did you get it." ”

Zhiyue's father naturally didn't want to say that it was caused by the adults in the family fighting, so he had to make up a lie, "We pulled it." ”

"Can you do this?" the doctor stared at Zhiyue's father, as if he wanted to see through people.

Zhiyue's father was lazy, "It's really just a pull, doctor, can you cure it?"

"It can be cured. ”

"Then hurry up, this kid can't fall ill. ”

"Incurable. ”

Hey, do you look down on me, think I'm poor and beg for food, and I'll tell you I'm rich. As he spoke, Zhiyue's father took out some loose silver, "Isn't that enough?"

"Enough. ”

"Then you can give me a good treatment. ”

"Hmph, I've seen a lot of people like you, do you see that your child is a female doll and trample on her, and you are afraid that the government will chase after you suddenly die, so you pretend to come to show the child this innocuous little disease, and then find a way to kill it when you go home, hum, I tell you, I will become your accomplice if I treat it! I am a doctor, I will never be deceived by people like you! I tell you, if this child has three longs and two shorts, I must go to the government to report you!"

"Oh, what are you talking about, how could I want to kill my daughter, my daughter will be in the immortal class in the future, it's too late for me to be good to her, you are really. ”

"Rank in the immortal class?"
