After Mi Peng and Feng Xuan knelt three times and bowed nine times towards Ji Kao, this apprenticeship ceremony was over.

"Kao Jun, Mi Peng and Feng Xuan worship you as their teacher, I am barren and have nothing to give. ”

"I once saw that when Kao Jun swallowed the breath machine, the starlight drooped, and I thought that the method I did was related to the stars. Among my ancestors, there was the art of divination by observing the stars and astrology, which is said to have been passed down by the god Zhurong. Originally, I was worried that Kaojun would not be able to master it, but now that you have entered the door of the witchcraft, I would like to give it as a thank you gift. ”

For a long time, Mane Bear has been thinking about what gift he should give to Ji Kao when the two children apprentice.

Although it is said that Ji Kao has passed on a witchcraft to divide disasters, but compared to the way of refining qi that Ji Kao wants to pass on to Mi Peng and Feng Xuan, he thinks it is still inferior.

After thinking about it for a while, he decided to dedicate one of his roots to Ji Kao.

The witch veins of Chudi are almost all in the hands of the patriarch of their clan, passed down by word of mouth, and never flow out.

Now that there is an inflow of the way of refining qi, the outflow of his witch blessing method seems to be the way of heaven and earth to travel back and forth.

Ji Kao listened to the words of the bear, he didn't know that this method was precious, but he was really interested in the method of stargazing and divination in the witch way, and he didn't refuse it at the moment.

"Chu Jun is willing to give it, and he will not refuse it. However, it should not be regarded as a gift of apprenticeship, and it is passed on from master to apprentice, but it is the way to pass on the Ji Kao, and there is no need for any gifts. Now accept Chu Jun's witchcraft, and in the future, he will return Chu Jun with the law. ”

When the bear heard that Ji Kao did not refuse, his heart was immediately relieved, and he was also worried that Ji Kao was unwilling to accept this thing.

Then, he handed a piece of yellow animal bone to Ji Kao's hand.

Originally, this beast bone should have been white, but after many years of inheritance, it looked a little burnt.

Ji Kao looked at the qi machine and knew that this was something like a jade slip of a qi refiner, and a beast bone contained a lot of information.

Seeing that the appearance of the beast bones was old, it seemed that it was still passed down from the original version, and his heart suddenly moved, and he bowed to this Chu Jun.

The most primitive method may not be the best method to use, but it must be the method that is closest to the idea of the person who created the Fa.

"Haha, Kid Mipeng, you are now on the path of cultivation. I have a few methods here, which are suitable for you, so I will give them to you. ”

This middle-aged man named Ao Guang said with a loud laugh.

However, Mi Peng glanced towards Ji Kao.

Ji Kao's eyes wrinkled slightly, and he looked at the big man: "Jun is a dragon?"

Seeing this big man, and Mi Peng's unspeakable words, Ji Kao couldn't guess where he was, this was probably the dragon he saw in the water before Mi Peng entered the country.

"Yes, I am indeed a dragon?" the big man said indifferently, "What, the disciple of Kaojun, can't you accept something different?"

Ji Kao smiled softly: "It's not, they can have gifts from masters, and it is also their own blessing, how can Ji Kao stand in the way." ”

After speaking, he glanced at Mi Peng: "Whether to accept things or not, whether to refine or not, it is up to you to decide." If you are undecided, come back to me and ask me. ”

"I have been practicing all the way, and I have received a lot of help and donations from many people. It's just that you have to know that if you take something, you will do something, and if you gain something, you will lose something. ”

After listening to this, Mi Peng pondered for a while, and then said to Ao Gan: "Thank you for the gift from Long Jun." ”

There is an inexplicable feeling in my heart that I should take these things, otherwise, I will regret it.

Since he had this feeling, Mi Peng decided to take it.

"Okay, okay, you have a good understanding, this is the top magic method among the qi refiners. ”

Ao Qian pointed towards Mi Peng, and the aura of clouds and water around him was permeated, and when the clouds and water dispersed, he disappeared.

Even Ji Kao and the mane bear didn't feel how he disappeared.

"Hey, Kao Jun, the old turtle thinks that he has some fate with your other disciple, so I don't mind if I send him something. ”

The old turtle, who had just woken up, suddenly spoke, making Ji Kao slightly stunned.

He glanced at Feng Xuan, then shook his head and smiled: "If you want to send something, you can naturally do it as you like, but I still say the same thing, whether to accept it or not, whether to use it or not, it is all up to them." ”

After hearing this, the old turtle said directly to Feng Xuan: "Feng Xuan boy, the old turtle wants to give you something, do you accept it, do you use it?"

Feng Xuan said calmly: "The master calls Turtle Jun a brother, and he is naturally an elder Xuan, so he can naturally accept it, but if you want to use it, you have to see what it is first?"

"This kind of good thing, your master didn't get the fate, I saw that you were pleasing to the eye, so I gave it to you. ”

After speaking, he didn't care about Feng Xuan's thoughts, a Xuanwu phantom appeared around his body, and then turned into a beam of black light and shot into Feng Xuan's eyebrows.

After this beam of black light shot out, the spirit of the giant turtle seemed to be partially extracted, although it was not a human body, but Ji Kao could still see that the giant turtle seemed to be extremely expensive.

Especially now that he has not taken off the curse and his strength has not recovered, this is a very simple method for ordinary monks, and it must be extremely difficult to use it.

Sure enough, after the giant turtle came out, it fell asleep again.

Mane Bear and his son Qi Li, seeing that the apprenticeship ceremony had been completed, Mi Peng and Feng Xuan were both in a fixed state, laughing at the method passed on by Long Jun and the giant turtle.

Then they got up and took their leave to Ji Kao.

When bidding them farewell, Ji Kao suddenly asked, "Chu Jun, in the past two months, Kao found that the Chu people have fought more frequently with diplomacy, I don't know why?"

He has been in Chu for three months, and he has seen the situation in Chu more or less.

When they first came, occasionally the neighboring tribes came to provoke, and the Chu people went out and fought with them. It's rare, and it often takes seven or eight days to see it once.

Even when people go out to hunt and encounter groups of fierce beasts, they are more frequent than this.

But in the last month, things have been different.

The Chu tribes, in the southeast, northwest and northwest, are provoked by the surrounding tribes almost every day. The warriors went out to fight, and often people returned with serious injuries.

Ji Kao is already a true person of the Qi Refiner, and the conversation of the people of the tribe is willing to listen, and he will hear some of it. But during this period of time, because he devoted himself to standing on the pile to recuperate, he did not deliberately pay attention.

But during today's apprenticeship ceremony, I found that several people were carried back to the tribe and waited for the bears to come over to heal, and finally couldn't help but ask.

Hearing Ji Kao's inquiry, Mane Bear sighed and said: "This matter shouldn't have bothered Kao Jun, but since Jun asked, Mane Bear also told him bluntly. ”

"The place where my Chu people live is between Zhujing and Baipu, with Yangyue in the east and Bafang in the west, and all kinds of tribes are mixed. The farther Yang goes, the less impact it has on this side. In the past, the Ba people were friendly with our Chu people, and it was not difficult to fight against the people of Jingpu with their help. ”

"But a few months before Kao Jun came to Chudi, there was chaos in Ba Di, and even Ba Jun was replaced. Feng Xuan also told Kao Jun about this matter, and I won't re-appeal much. The new Ba Jun almost listened to the words of Lingshan Wuzhu. ”

"I, Chu Wu, are in the same vein, although they are not far from Lingshan, but they have never visited Lingshan, so they naturally don't like it. Now that the help of the Ba people is gone, the situation is naturally more difficult than before. ”

"Coupled with this period of time, Zhujing and Baipu seem to have a tendency to have a big war. The two sides are in contact with the tribes everywhere, so that our small tribes can make a decision, which side will they stand on?"

"All this time, I didn't make up my mind, because both sides were constantly harassing. ”

After listening to the bear's words, Ji Kao also understood.

Originally, with the help of the Ba people, although the Chu people were not very stable here, they were still able to get by.

Now that the Bachu Alliance exists in name only, the Chu people are starting to have a hard time.

In addition, if Zhujing and Baipu start a war, they must clear the field in advance and let all the tribes stand in line.

So far, the Chu people have not stood in line, and they have always been unstable.

"Help Zhu Jing, or help Bai Pu, has Chu Jun made a decision?"

Ji Kao smiled faintly and asked Mane Bear.

Mane Bear also smiled: "Which side does Kao Jun think the Chu people should stand on?"

After a month of thinking, Mane Bear already had a plan in his heart, but he wanted to know what Ji Kao thought.

Ji Kao pondered for a while and said: "Jing Chu Jing Chu, the name has been decided, it is better for Chu Jun to stand on the side of Jing people." ”

"I want to hear about it. ”

The mane bear suddenly became serious and looked at Ji Kao.

The idea in his heart is actually to help one side openly and secretly, and neither side will be offended.

He originally thought that Ji Kao would have the same idea as him, but he didn't expect Ji Kao to directly let him stand on the side of Zhujing.

Didn't Ji Kao think that if Zhu Jing lost to Bai Pu, the Chu people would also suffer?

"If the Chu people are strong and not afraid of either side, I would suggest that Chu Jun'an sit on the high mountain and watch the battle between the two tigers. If the Chu people are alone and weak, and the two sides can be destroyed at will, I will suggest that Chu Jun curry favor with both ends, so as not to usher in a catastrophe. ”

"But looking at the momentum of the Chu people, although they are not as good as the people of Zhujing and Baipu, they are all a big tribe in Zhujing and Baipu. ”

"Although this kind of power cannot influence the situation, it can stand out in the battle. The surrounding tribes, whether it is the Central Plains or Yangyue, or Baipu Sanmiao, since they are all known as Jing Chu, why not take this opportunity to sit down completely?"

"If the Jing people win, the Chu people can also take advantage of the opportunity; if the Jing people lose, the Chu people can directly turn Jing into Chu and get rid of the century-old predicament. ”

Ji Kao's mouth gushed endlessly, and when he heard it in the bear's ears, it was like a light splitting into his mind.

According to what Ji Kao said, it seems that this war, which they consider to be a great disaster, has also become an opportunity for the Chu people.

"However, in this way, isn't it possible for us to completely integrate into Jingchu, worship the gods of Jingchu, and completely abandon the customs brought from the Central Plains?"

Mi Li, who heard this on the side, suddenly spoke.

Since moving to the south, the hearts of the Chu people have always been proud of their own sacrifices and various customs from the Central Plains.

Thrown into the Jing people, if these customs and their own sacrifices are also wiped out, wouldn't this be similar to exterminating the clan?
