The poem says:

Providence makes the number of people determined, and fate is lucky.

The lotus wind is not old, and the autumn rain is gradually cold and the chrysanthemum is still fragrant.

The fish leaps over the dragon gate by the water potential, and the phoenix perched on the sycamore tree to the rising sun.

At that time, the opportunity was not known, and it was difficult to decompose it in the future.

——Li Shijian followed behind the Nine Elders, entered the VIP room, and waited for the three elders to salute the sect leader Lei Ren, before he stepped forward and saluted Lei Ren as well. Lei Ren smiled:

"Poetry and sword, don't be polite. You are now at the beginning of the spiritual path, it seems that you have been cultivating a lot of hard work recently, so you can make such rapid progress, well, gratifying, you have to continue to work hard!hahahaha!"

Li Shijian said: "Thank you for the importance of the sect master, I will do my best to contribute to the sect as soon as possible!"

As he was talking, the Master of the Heart Mirror arrived, and Lei Ren immediately smiled and said to the Master of the Heart Mirror: "Heart Mirror, you came just in time, you have been doing a good job in the big arena recently, and yesterday you were promoted to two orders in a row, and the tribulation was successful, it can be said that you are the master of the new generation of my Mingzong." ”

The Master of the Heart Mirror hurriedly said humbly: "The sect master has won the prize!"

Lei Ren said: "Where? You are in charge of this big competition, and now you are very prosperous, and you have increased your income for this sect, this is meritorious; you can grasp your cultivation in such a busy situation, and suddenly advance to two orders in a row, it is so rare, where is this sect master's award?"

Heart mirror, among the descendants of our Mingzong, there have been two outstanding talents in the past few days, one is you, the other is here, I didn't expect him to be here today, you just happened to meet him, get closer to each other, in the future, you are all the pillars of my Mingzong!"

The Master of the Heart Mirror had already seen Li Shijian, and had already heard from Yu Ion that Li Shijian had dragon qi and was accepted as a disciple by the Nine Elders of the Sect, which was quite valued by the sect master. At this time, after listening to Lei Ren's words, the Master of the Heart Mirror secretly thought:

This Li Shijian was originally instructed by the Immortal to prevent him from crossing the path of cultivating immortals, or to disturb his cultivation speed, I don't want him to enter the spiritual realm not long after he arrived in this realm, I have to think of a way to make the sect master dislike him and let the Ming Sect expel him.

Thinking of this, the Master of the Heart Mirror said respectfully to Lei Ren:

"Report to the sect master, this Li Shijian has a lot to do with the thief monk Mingchen, he also has a senior brother who has entered this realm of Zen Buddhism, he has an indescribable relationship with Zen Buddhism, how can our Mingzong take him in?"

When Lei Ren heard this, he smiled and said: "This matter, this sect master has already sent someone to investigate, and he has also asked Shi Jian, and the reason for this is already known to this sect master."

Heart mirror, you have a conflict with him, according to what this sect master said, you all give in to each other! This sect master also hopes that in the hands of the two of you, he will carry forward my Ming Sect. ”

When the Master of the Heart Mirror heard this, he was shocked in his heart, and secretly thought to himself, yes, there are some words, it is better for me to say them first, after all, it is a preconceived idea!

Thinking of this, the Master of the Heart Mirror said at that time:

"Report to the sect master, the disciple and the senior brother of Shijian really have no hatred. It's just that in the lower world, his younger brother Li Shijun fought with my apprentice, and when it was critical, I knocked his younger brother down to the bottom of the cliff of the Snow Ridge of Qinglong Mountain in order to save my apprentice.

At that time, I did not ask for his brother's life, not even a single hair of his brother's hair. If you want to say that I have a contradiction with him Li Shijian, it is about this contradiction.

Sect Master, please think about it, if I were to kill his younger brother, how could his younger brother, as a mortal, be able to escape my means? At that time, the Heart Mirror was already at the second-order cultivation realm of the Spirit Dao. Please see this point, please see it!"

When Lei Ren heard this, he asked, "Oh, that's what happened. Heart Mirror, what are you going to do in that lower world?"

When the Master of the Heart Mirror heard this, he secretly said in his heart: I was originally sent by the powerful immortal of the upper realm, and the immortal wanted me to deal with his brother Li Shijian, as well as the dervishes monk Mingchen, this word cannot be said in any way.

Thinking of this, the Master of the Heart Mirror replied: "Sect Master, my apprentice Hulags is a good seedling, and the disciple went to the lower world with his own spatial magic weapon, the Bronze Mirror, in order to accept Hulags as an apprentice.

At that time, the two countries were at war, and I didn't help my apprentice, sect master, if I came forward to help my apprentice, how could he Li Shijian defeat the country? They fought for the world, after all, it was a battle between mortals, how could I, as a spiritual path cultivator, participate in it?

I will not help Hulagus to attack the Taiping Khanate, and naturally I will not do anything to the generals of the Taiping Khanate, let alone kill his brother.

The disciple doesn't know why he, Li Shijian, claims to have a grudge against me for killing my brother, the disciple has never killed his brother, and the disciple can swear to heaven by this!"

After hearing this, Lei Ren said: "Well, what you said also makes sense, after all, we immortal cultivators, generally speaking, are unwilling to participate in the war of the mortal world. Shijian, it seems that you have misunderstood your senior brother Xinjing. ”

When Li Shijian heard this, he couldn't help but be speechless, but he secretly said in his heart: If you hadn't knocked my brother off the cliff, how could my brother have died because of this?

Li Shijian couldn't let go of it, Lei Ren naturally saw it in his eyes, and his heart was already a little unhappy, and he immediately said: "Shijian, what this sect master said will not be wrong, immortal cultivators in the spiritual realm will not go to the lower world to kill mortals indiscriminately, that will cause killing karma, there will be retribution, and it will affect the tribulation, don't you still believe the words of this sect master?"

When Li Shijian heard this, he couldn't help but be shocked in his heart: Listening to the tone of this Lei Ren Sect Master, he was obviously dissatisfied with me.

Thinking of this, Li Shijian stepped forward and gave Lei Ren a salute, and only after the ceremony was finished did he say: "If you return to the sect master's words, how dare the disciple not believe the sect master's words? However, even if my brother was not killed by the Master of the Heart Mirror, he also died because of him! The disciple also wanted to ask the Master of the Heart Mirror for an explanation on this point. ”

The Master of the Heart Mirror had already taken over and said, "Senior Brother Shijian, you can disown me as a senior brother, but since you have the order of the sect master, I can't disown you as a junior brother." If you want to ask for an explanation, then I will give you an explanation. ”

Lei Ren wanted to speak, but when he saw that the person in the heart mirror grabbed the talk, he was about to open his mouth to reprimand, but he listened to the person in the heart mirror and was very ear-catching, so he couldn't help it at that time, listening to the person in the heart mirror, and wanted to hear what he said to Li Shijian.

I listened to the Master of the Heart Mirror continue: "Senior Brother Shijian, what can I say to you, Senior Brother?

You must know that at that time in the lower world, my apprentice Hulagus and you were hostile people, on the cliff of the Snow Ridge, if my apprentice Hulagus was killed by your brother, I was afraid that I would retaliate, and your Taiping army would not be enough for me to wipe out with a little finger.

I just wanted to save my apprentice, and I didn't think about killing your brother, and beating him down the cliff at that time was just a punishment.

Having said that, Senior Brother, I was a second-order Spiritual Dao Immortal Cultivator at the time, and I didn't take a mortal to heart, I didn't want his life at that time, but I was already merciful! It's just that I didn't expect that the Taiping Khan Emperor would now become my junior brother! Haha, hello junior brother!"

There are all immortal cultivators in the seat, of course, they all agree with the words of the person in the heart mirror, the person in the heart mirror is right, in the eyes of the immortal cultivators, they are indeed regarded as ants, and the master of the heart mirror did not ask for the life of his brother Li Shijian at that time, and he was indeed merciful!

So everyone expressed their agreement with the heart mirror, and Lei Ren also said: "The heart mirror is right, poetry and sword, you don't have to be stubborn and resentful!"

The Ninth Elder didn't see a clue, and at that time, the divine sense sent a message to Li Shijian: "Shijian, don't fight anymore, the sect master already has an opinion on you, this is not a good thing!"

Li Shijian replied, "Master, do you mean that I just want to let this matter go?"

Seeing that he was proud, he was even more pressed at that time, and asked Li Shijian:

"Senior brother, you weren't there at the time, and you were just a mortal in the lower world at that time, how did you know that I knocked your brother off the cliff on the snow ridge?

The person on the heart mirror predicted: Xu Wenhu must have told Li Shijian that he had killed his younger brother, and he had seen the two of them being forced to jump into the Shahe Spring, but he had never seen the two of them reappear since then, and he once thought that the two of them were strangled by the underwater array!

In the eyes of the Master in the Heart Mirror, if Li Shijian told the truth, the Tao was told by Xu Wenhu, and he would have to talk about his relationship with Zen Buddhism again.

At this time, Li Shijian had already let go, and said at the time: "Of course I heard what Xu Wenhu Daoyou said, and I didn't expect it, why are you unwilling to be merciful to all of us?"

Speaking of which, Xu Wenhu was originally a courtier of my Taiping Khanate, the dervishes Mingchen, and also the father of my neighboring Khan, we all came from the lower world to pursue the way of immortality.

As far as I know, the dervish monk Mingchen only dealt with our Mingzong, and it was also because you looked for his son first that many incidents occurred!"

At that time, the Ninth Elder felt that Li Shijian's words had the meaning of defending the dervishes, and immediately stopped Li Shijian from going any further, and scolded: "Shijian, Hugh is talking nonsense!"

The Master of the Heart Mirror said, "Sect Master, look, Senior Brother Shijian actually defended the thief monk and deducted basins on the disciple!"

Lei Ren was angry at that time: "Li Shijian, if you favor that thief monk again, this sect master can make you ruined!"

The Nine Elders hurriedly stepped forward and said: "Sect Master is angry! Shi Jian He wants to explain that the incident was provoked by the nephew of the Heart Mirror Master, but he invisibly replied to the thief monk, the sect master can rest assured, Shi Jian will not favor the thief monk!"

The Ninth Elder came forward to speak, and Lei Ren softened his breath.

No, there are old ones behind the small ones, and as soon as Yu Ion saw the Nine Elders speaking for his apprentice, he immediately went shirtless for his apprentice. I only heard Yu Ion say:

"Brother Jiu! I can't say that, since I entered the sect, I have seen everything I have done. The sect master is also in the know, if you want to provoke an incident, in my opinion, the thief monk is undisciplined, but he is the most likely to provoke the incident! Poet Sword Master and nephew, you can't affect your rational judgment because of your emotional intimacy!"

When the Ninth Elder heard this, he also became angry: "Tenth brother, what do you mean by this? Could it be that today your master and apprentice are going to force me, the only disciple, to death?"

Yu Ion sneered at each other: "Brother Jiu, what are you talking about? Could it be that I can only stand by and watch by allowing your master and apprentice to attack my two disciples?"

Okay, now, the Nine Elders and the Ten Elders are facing each other!

Lei Ren was furious and shouted: "Do you still have this sect master in your eyes?" Elder Guan, there is no doubt about the identity of the person on the Heart Mirror, but it is your disciple, whose identity is much more suspicious, you can protect your disciple, but don't forget what I said!"

The Ninth Elder was taken aback, and immediately said, "I am in a hurry, and I ask the sect master to forgive me!"

Lei Ren said: "Li Shijian, this sect master has given you a task, you complete one thing for this sect to prove that you are indeed loyal to this sect!"

The Ninth Elder was shocked, the sect master said so, that task must not be easy to do.

Before the Nine Elders could say anything, Lei Ren had already said, "Give you three years, and after three years, you will go to the Ancient Realm for this sect, and then you will pick the seeds of the phantom soul lotus for this sect!"

Li Shijian listened, I don't know what kind of task this is, but the ninth elder listened to it, but he breathed a sigh of relief, and said secretly in his heart: It seems that although the sect master is angry, he can finally be reconciled.

At that time, the Ninth Elder motioned to Li Shijian and said, "Shijian, don't hurry up and thank the sect master!"

Li Shijian had no choice but to follow the request of the Nine Elders and thank the sect leader Lei Ren.

I don't want the sect master Lei Ren to say again: "Elder Guan, track down the matter of the thief monk, I don't think you should get involved, you go back to the six cities in the northeast, and take advantage of your apprentices!"

When the Nine Elders heard this, they knew that their status in the heart of Sect Master Lei Ren had declined. However, this storm has finally subsided, which is a good thing, right?

At this time, the Nine Elders really regretted bringing Li Shijian to the arena.

The Ninth Elder took Li Shijian, saluted Lei Ren, and said, "Sect Master, I will take Shijian back to the six cities in the Northeast." ”

Lei Ren said: "Go ahead." ”

So the dervishes took control of the black bowl, followed behind the Nine Elders and Li Shijian, and quietly followed.

Out of the big arena, I only heard the Nine Elders say: "Shijian, if you go to the Ancient Domain Realm in three years, your strength is quite important, you have to work hard to advance to the sixth order of the Spirit Dao! ”

Li Shijian said, "Master, what is going on in the Ancient Realm?"

The Nine Elders said: "The Ancient Domain Realm is an extremely strange place, it appears once every three hundred and sixty years, and each time it appears, but it is two times in a row in three years, the first time it appears, the Moling Empire will choose people to go in to explore the treasure; After entering the Ancient Realm realm, those who can refine can refine magic weapons in order to fight the enemy. ”

Li Shijian had to ask for more details, and the Ninth Elder said, "What I know is still limited after all. According to me, let's rush to Nanming Yanshan now, and I will take the fire of Nanming Lihuo for you. ”

So, the Nine Elders took Li Shijian and did not return to the six cities in the northeast, but drove the wind chasing spirit ship and flew straight to the south. The dervish monk had already absorbed the black bowl to the wind chasing spirit ship again, and made a big trip for free.

Inside the black bowl, the dervish monk said to Li Wenshan: "Li Daoyou, looking at today's argument between the Nine Elders and Li Shijian's master and apprentice and the person on the Heart Mirror, I think that the person on the Heart Ion and the Heart Mirror are very cunning. ”

Li Wenshan said: "Well, I also think that when this Yu ion talks to the person in the heart mirror, it is a knife in the words, and it can kill people invisibly." It's this Ninth Elder, I think this person is also a lover. ”

The dervish said, "Do you think Li Shijian has changed?"

Li Wenshan said: "Back then, in the lower world, I heard that he once stunned Yang Qingcai with a poisonous tongue, and today it seems that it is still not good to debate." ”

The dervish monk smiled: "The Master of the Heart Mirror knows the situation, but Li Shijian doesn't know much about the situation, just by virtue of this, of course Li Shijian can't debate the Master of the Heart Mirror." To be honest, even I, after listening to his statement, don't believe that someone in his heart mirror will kill Li Shijun!"

Li Wenshan said: "That's right. It's just that we weren't there at the time, so who knows if the person on the heart mirror killed Shijun, and how did Shijun die?"

While he was talking, the Wind Chasing Spirit Boat suddenly stopped!
