"Mao Ji, do you think Senior Brother Bai will be surprised to see the two of us?" On the mountain road leading to Baiyun Creek, two young warriors were walking and talking. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

The person on the left is wearing a sky-blue round-necked robe, holding a folding fan, and his face is always filled with a confident smile. The person on the right has thick eyebrows and big eyes, a thick face, and a thick short hair under his chin, and he is the one who spoke just now.

These two people are Gan Zhang and Mao Ji, who have traveled abroad and done meritorious tasks for more than two years.

Originally, the Qingdu Temple only gave them a year to travel, but the two of them didn't know whether they were stimulated by the Huashan Sword or influenced by the White Cliff, so they both succeeded in "peeping into the Dao" within a year, and successively broke through the three levels and penetrated the Star Bridge of Heaven and Earth, becoming the first level of artistic conception.

In this way, they were not in a hurry to return to Qingcheng, and after Feishu sent a message to Hua Cheng, the current peak master of Sword Finger Peak, they continued to stay outside to complete the remaining merit tasks.

"Is Senior Brother Bai the kind of person who is startled?" Mao Jian slapped his palms with a folding fan and said with a smile.

"But he's certainly happy to see that we're real. Lord Hua Feng said that before the silver corpse was refined, Guanli would not let him go out. He is now like being imprisoned on the wall, and there is no one to chat and drink with him, can he not be depressed?"

"Alas, it's all your fault, otherwise you would have been able to come back to drink with my senior brother a long time ago. Before going out, I took on so many meritorious tasks, if it weren't for the two of us walking all the way, it would have been completed in what year and month. Gan Zhang glared at him angrily.

"Didn't I listen to my senior brother, he said that a meritorious task can be completed in ten days and a half months as early as possible, and it won't take a month or two later. Mao Ji smiled bitterly and said, "I think, we are two people, and we have to go out for a whole year, and it is not too much to do a dozen meritorious tasks, who knows that it will take more than two years......

"How can we be weird with Senior Brother Bai...... Compare it!" Gan Zhang thought of the hard work of the past two years, and muttered with palpitations.

In the first three years of their admission to Qingcheng, they basically practiced penance in the mountains, and occasionally went down the mountain to do a meritorious task, and they were all led by artistic conception warriors, with a clear purpose for activities, just like Bai Ya followed Xuanji to Xiao Le to suppress zombies.

This is also the standard process for Qingcheng Zhumen to train and teach new disciples, and after Huashan discusses the sword, the merit task that the two of them have to find clues and find a way to do it by themselves.

They took on so many tasks, and they were completely pitted by the white cliff.

At the beginning of Huashan, Bai Ya told about several meritorious tasks he had completed. Although it took him more than three quarters from the time he descended the mountain to the beginning of the Huashan sword discussion, the time for performing the meritorious task was really not much.

Maybe he didn't speak in detail enough, it sounded like it was very simple, and he didn't even notice the fame in it. But when the two of them did it themselves, they found that without the intelligence clues provided by the sect, all the tasks seemed to be clueless.

Besides, in order to make more merits, Mao Ji took on those more tedious tasks. So the two of them were forced to work hard, often groping for months to find a clear clue, but the part that needed to be solved by force was easier.

That's why they've been doing more than a dozen merit tasks for more than two years, and fortunately, some of them don't have time limits. For example: clearing out the bullies in certain places, eliminating the brute beasts that threaten the ferry tunnels in a certain place, and so on.

The two walked while talking, and soon came to Baiya's courtyard in Baiyunxi.

"Hey, isn't my brother in the house?"

"This time...... I guess he's still on top of the waterfall, right?"

There is a waterfall and pond behind the courtyard of White Cliff, and the scenery is very beautiful. The cliff where the waterfall is located is just facing east, and the white cliff has paved a martial arts arena on top of it and built a small stone platform.

He would refine qi on the stone platform every morning and evening, which was also a cultivation method of swallowing the essence of the sun and the moon, and the harmony between man and heaven.

The scene when Mao Ji and the two of them came over now was already halfway through the hour, and Bai Ya was almost about to end the morning class.

The two of them walked around the mountain road towards the top of the cliff, and when they reached the top, they saw a person sitting on the stone platform in the distance, meditating and refining qi.

There is a mountain stream more than ten meters wide on the left side of the cliff here, which is the source of the waterfall below. Because of the waterfall, the water vapor here is thick, and the temperature is low in the early morning, and the cliff is filled with a layer of mist, which is like a dream.

"Senior brother, this place is really good, when we get started, why don't we move in and be neighbors with him?" Gan Zhang said enviously.

Leaving aside those disciples who have traveled in the rivers and lakes, there are about two thousand inner disciples who have lived in Qingcheng Mountain for a long time, less than one-tenth of the martial disciples in the outer hall, and even one person living on a mountain in Qingcheng is more than enough.

"You said it simply, we are not as famous as our senior brothers, and our talent realm has been exceptionally included by Jingluo Zhenren. Unless the two of us are on the list of Huashan Sword, we can only wait for the cultivation of the Fa Heaven and Earth before we can be included in the disciple by Master Liu. Mao Ji sighed and said.

"That's right!" Gan Zhang smiled bitterly.

The larger the scale of the Immortal Martial Sect in the Divine World, the more demanding it will be to accept disciples. A big sect like Qingcheng generally waits for disciples to cultivate into the Dharma Heaven and Earth, and they will definitely be able to advance to the potential realm, and this will be included as a real disciple.

If you want to make an exception for the collection, it must be a fragrant bun like Baiya, which everyone is vying for. If you want to have a lot of influence, or if you have a strong martial arts talent, you can only produce a demon in a hundred years, which is stronger than geniuses like Lin Mu, Mao Ji, and Gan Zhang.

For example: Sword Finger Peak, a little Qingcheng martial artist who was Ming Xuan at the age of fourteen, once his heart matures, he has a good chance of being exceptionally included.

The two of them walked as they spoke, and when they got closer, they lowered their voices and looked at the figure sitting cross-legged in front of them.

The figure sitting on the stone platform was also a young warrior, combing his hair and facing away from them, wearing an old cyan robe, with a yin-yang fish Taiji diagram printed on the back.

"Why is Senior Brother still wearing such an old Wuzen cultivation robe, and hasn't he changed into a new one?" Gan Zhang said with some envy.

The Wu Zen Repair Cloth is a Taoist meditation robe embroidered with runes that help to meditate and refine qi. The white cliff was lent to him by Liu Yu when he came out alone to practice.

As a result, after borrowing for a few years, it is estimated that Liu Yu has forgotten that there is such a thing now, after all, this clothes are just spare parts, and he can't remember it if he doesn't use it.

"Don't think about it, and Yuqing is ahead of us?" Mao looked at him with a smile.

"How can there be ......" Gan Zhang's face turned red and he glanced at Mao Ji angrily.

Although both of them are from martial arts families, their family style is quite strict, and they are not the main investment objects of the family. There aren't many cultivation resources you get every year, so it's better to do merit tasks honestly.

The two were talking in a whisper, and there was movement on the stone platform over there.

Bai Ya had already noticed the arrival of the two, but the internal qi circulation had not yet been completed, so he did not finish. As soon as the last cycle is completed, it will immediately collect its energy and turn around.

"You two are back!" When he opened his eyes and saw Mao Ji and Gan Zhang, Bai Ya was very happy in his heart.

"Quack~" As soon as he jumped off the stone platform, he saw a ball of yellow, orange and orange hairballs falling from the sky and covering his head directly.

This yellow-orange-orange hairball is actually a bird covered in pale yellow fluff and looks like a chicken, but it is much larger than a chicken, about the size of an adult rooster.

This thing ate so chubbyly that it lay on the head of the white cliff, like a stuffed felt hat, covering half of his head.

"Hahaha~~" After Mao Ji and Gan Zhang were stunned for a moment, they couldn't help laughing.

"Dead bird, come down for me!" Bai Ya twitched the corner of his mouth, and grabbed the fluffy bird and threw it aside.

"Quack~~" The hairball-like bird screamed twice, and there was obviously a trace of grievance in the big black eyes.

"Senior brother, did you raise this thing?" Gan Zhang couldn't help but laugh, "Is it so lonely on the mountain?"

"No, this guy should be Senior Brother's Mixed Sky Peng Egg, right?" Mao Ji shook the folding fan and said thoughtfully.

"Well, it just hatched last year, and it's quite smart, but it's very clingy. Bai Ya sighed and said with a wry smile, "I have to eat ten kilograms of spiritual rice and one kilogram of fresh meat every day, which is even better than a pig." ”

"I can't afford to raise this, senior brother really doesn't think about handing it over to the sect?" Gan Zhang asked curiously.

"Quack~~" The young Chao Tianpeng seemed to understand Gan Zhang's words, and shouted at him angrily twice, and the pale yellow fluff on his body stood up.

"Can this little thing understand human speech?" Mao Ji stared at it curiously.

"Hehe, this kind of high-level immortal bird is born with a memory of inheritance, this little thing can hold a grudge, you two be careful. Bai Ya's eyes flashed, and he smiled a little meaningfully.

"What can such a chick do to us?" Gan Zhang shrugged his shoulders and said indifferently, "When it grows up, it will take at least a few decades!"

"Senior brother, senior brother, Senior Brother Baiya~~" The three of them had just chatted for a while, when they suddenly heard a crisp cry from above their heads.

When I looked up, I found that it was actually a lark learning to speak. Bai Ya stretched out his hand, and the lark flew down and stopped on his arm.

"The master has something to call for, so the two of you should come over together. Bai Ya took a finger-sized tube from the lark's leg and pulled out a small note from it.

"Okay, just say hello to Master Liu!" Mao Ji and Gan Zhang looked at each other and smiled.

Although they are Liu Yu's disciples, because they haven't really started, they can't enter the ancestral hall to see Liu Yu.

However, since there is White Cliff leading the team, it doesn't matter.

Liu Yu has now been promoted to congenital, he originally suppressed his cultivation, and after being promoted, his realm was stable and fast, and he was already out of the customs last year.

"Master Liu will definitely be glad to see you two back. Bai Ya smiled and led the two of them down the mountain.

"Quack~~" The little bastard Tianpeng, who originally expected him to finish his cultivation, was suddenly dumbfounded, looking at Mao Ji and Gan Zhang's eyes became more and more angry, and a pair of plush wings fluttered, and flew into the sky.

It's just that its feathers haven't grown well, even if it has the talent to resist the wind, it can still only fly up and down, and its posture is ugly to death, which makes Mao Ji and Gan Zhang laugh.

"Hey, you two better be careful!" Bai Ya quietly distanced himself from the two.

"Be careful...... Watch out for what?"

"Be careful...... It's coming!" Bai Ya smiled and tiptoed away, quickly leaving the two of them.

"Huh~~" As soon as he jumped away, Mao Ji and Gan Zhang heard a strong wind blowing overhead.

"Could it be that little thing...... The two of them have been out for more than two years, and they still have basic vigilance, and they each raised their hands to shoot a palm wind upward, not seeking to hurt the enemy, but only to force the enemy away.

Then I only heard a "poof", and a ball of slimy and warm bird droppings was scattered by the palm wind, drenching the two of them on their heads and faces.
