There were no furnishings in the pavilion, it was empty, and a woman with a veil on her face and gray hair was sitting cross-legged on the top.

Zhang Ping'er walked in cautiously with Zhang Xiaohua, stopped some distance from the woman, and said, "I've seen Master." ”

Zhang Xiaohua was naturally respectful and bowed: "I've seen the deputy hall master"

The woman waved her hand, still with a pleasant face: "There are no ordinary tables and chairs here, so let's do it casually, you don't have to be polite." ”

She said "You're welcome", but Zhang Xiaohua dared to be polite, she still thanked her in her mouth, and sat cross-legged not far away respectfully, fortunately, Zhang Xiaohua usually meditates and exercises, and she is no stranger to this posture. Seeing Zhang Xiaohua sitting down very skillfully, the woman seemed a little surprised, and couldn't help asking, "Ren Xiaoyao, are you ...... What kind of internal skills are you practicing?"

Zhang Xiaohua opened her mouth and came: "And the deputy hall master, what I am practicing is "Mangniu Jin" "

"Reckless bullishness?" the woman was obviously stunned, and muttered, "It seems...... It's not a famous exercise in the rivers and lakes."

"Hehe" Zhang Xiaohua said with a smile: "That's right, small qualifications can't be successful, you can only pick extremely shallow cultivation, this "Mangniu Jin" is in the rivers and lakes, and it is also an extremely superficial exercise, the deputy hall master has never heard of it, it is very normal." ”

"That's right. The woman was suspicious and said, "Seeing that you are quite young, this reckless strength is also an extremely simple exercise, but ...... Why are your martial arts so high? Even Ping'er is not your opponent?"

Zhang Xiaohua said with a smile: "That's Senior Sister Zhang's false praise, the little one has never done anything with Senior Sister Zhang, it's just a coincidence that can help her a few times, when it comes to the level of martial arts, the little one may not be Senior Sister Zhang's opponent." ”

Zhang Ping'er didn't know what Zhang Xiaohua meant, looking at him, and seeing that her master wanted to speak and stopped.

The woman was very satisfied with Zhang Xiaohua's modesty: "I can't imagine that you are still very self-aware and refuse to take credit, it's really rare." However, at an age like you, you should be strong in blood and strength, competing for strengths and weaknesses, so unremarkable, blindly hiding clumsy, and ...... It's not necessarily a good thing. ”

Zhang Xiaohua nodded and said, "Thank you for the guidance of the deputy hall master." ”

"Hehe, actually, from the footsteps you just came in, I can hear that you are very good at light skills, and this internal skill must also have some attainments, but I think you are young and a little strange. ”

Zhang Xiaohua liked it even more, and said respectfully: "The deputy hall master is small...... Elders, the little ones naturally have to listen to them, it's nothing. ”

"Hehe, speaking of elders, this seat is older than you, but this life is still saved by you, and the old body asked Ping'er to bring you over, and I also want to say Xiexie to you in person. ”

As he spoke, he stood up and bowed.

"Dizzy~" Zhang Xiaohua was immediately shocked, this is the deputy hall master of the Lihuo Palace, well, although I don't understand the trick of this, I can think of being the hall master in Yixiang Peak, that ...... At least it's at the same level as Yang Ruping and the old man Zi Ginseng, and he actually gave a salute to an ordinary disciple like himself, which ...... It's simply incredible.

Zhang Xiaohua also got up immediately, bowed deeply, and said politely: "The deputy hall master is like this, but the little one is scared, if I heard Senior Sister Zhang say this, the little one wouldn't dare to come."

"Hahaha" The woman also laughed, straightened up and said: "You kid, it's really funny, the grace of saving your life, you should thank you in person, otherwise the old body is not an ungrateful person?"

For a while, Zhang Xiaohua's impression of the bitterness and hatred of the Incense Sect was a little weaker, since there are such grateful characters in the sect, even if it is dirty, how dark can it be?

Zhang Xiaohua also straightened her waist: "It was Senior Sister Zhang's filial piety that touched the world, the small one was just at the right time, and the gift given to Senior Sister Zhang by God was taken away first, and the deputy hall master did not pursue the small one's private crime, where did the little one dare to be greedy for this credit."

"Well, it's okay, if you hadn't given this gift to Ping'er in time, otherwise, the old body would really turn into a ghost to find you for revenge~" The woman also smiled.

"This ......" Zhang Xiaohua scratched her head and said: "The idea of opening the hall master is about to fail, with a filial apprentice like Senior Sister Zhang, you want to find me, but after a thousand years"

"Haha" The woman laughed very happily, even Zhang Ping'er was sitting next to her to hide her fun.

After a while, the deputy hall master stopped smiling and said: "It's been a long time since I've seen such an interesting little guy as you, no wonder Ping'er has been nagging in my ear, saying something about gratitude and retribution, hehe, I still thought about Ping'er's selfishness before, but now it seems that if she didn't have this selfishness, this seat only took a martial arts cheats book to send you, how can I see you?"

"Master......" Zhang Ping'er's face was full of crimson again.

Zhang Xiaohua touched her nose and didn't know how to deal with it.

"Okay, Ren Xiaoyao, you go down with Ping'er first, your preparatory disciple is a special case, if it weren't for the fact that this seat has grown up with the sect leader since he was a child, she can't push this face, and it's really tricky for you to enter the inner door. ”

"This martial arts assessment is a pass, it is necessary to pass, and the old body can't do it, but, look at your light skills, when there is no problem, when Lianyan has kung fu, let you test it quickly, during this time, let's follow Ping'er to see us from the Fire Palace." ”

Zhang Ping'er was very happy when she heard this: "Follow Master's order." ”

Zhang Xiaohua arched her hand: "But listen to the arrangement of the deputy hall master." ”

Coming out of Master Zhang Ping'er, it was getting late, Zhang Ping'er smiled and said, "Senior brother, it's getting late this day, you must be hungry, how about having a meal first and then letting the male disciple take you to rest?"

"This ......" Zhang Xiaohua hesitated a little, thought for a while, and said: "I'm not hungry, I'm tired all the way, so let's rest early, right?"

"That's right. Zhang Ping'er was a little unexpected, and said with a wry smile: "Where the male disciple rests, it is inconvenient for the little sister to go over, and this is the time for dinner, senior brother should come with me to the dining room, feel free to use a little, and let them take you back to rest?"

"Of course, of course. Zhang Xiaohua also woke up and said repeatedly.

The dining room away from the fire hall is many grades higher than Tianmu Peak, that is, the houses are elegant, and the people who eat among them are even more Sven, and there is no vulgarity that Zhang Xiaohua saw when he first went to Tianmu Peak.

Zhang Ping'er came to a dining room, didn't go in, only waved his hand to beckon a male disciple who was a little younger than Zhang Xiaohua, and said a few words, just smiled and said: "Senior Brother Ren, you can use some at will, and then follow Senior Brother Zhai over, your residence has already been arranged." ”

"There is Senior Sister Lao Zhang, and there is Senior Brother Lao Zhai. Zhang Xiaohua replied with a smile.

After speaking, Zhang Ping'er glanced at Zhang Xiaohua and hurried away.

Senior Brother Zhai also observed his words, smiled on his face, and said, "Senior Brother Ren? ”

As he spoke, he brought Zhang Xiaohua into the dining room.

Although everyone in the dining room was Sven, they were all stunned when they saw a stranger coming in at first glance, and the room was full of silence, Zhang Xiaohua can be regarded as having seen a big scene now, and she will no longer be at a loss like Huanxi Villa back then, she only smiled, glanced around the dining room, looked at a blank table next to it, and asked, "Senior Brother Zhai, is it okay there?"

Senior Brother Zhai nodded: "You can do it anywhere, only Senior Brother Ren likes it." ”

Zhang Xiaohua sat down quietly and ate the vegetables and unknown fruits on the table at will, and at this time, the dining room that was quiet just now was immediately a little lively, well, it can be said that it was a commotion, far from the good atmosphere that Zhang Xiaohua saw just now.

It seems that everyone is talking to each other, but the eyes are glancing at Zhang Xiaohua, needless to say, they are all talking about the origin of Zhang Xiaohua, and it doesn't take half a meal to do it, and under the revelation of some well-informed disciples, the disciples in the entire dining room know.

So, the look in that eye can be wonderful, jealousy, admiration, injustice, mockery, etc., all kinds of people and so on.

Zhang Xiaohua looked at it in her consciousness, and ignored it, only lowered her head, as if she couldn't get along with the vegetables on the table.

There were still a lot of male disciples coming over one after another, some older and some young, but without exception, they were all surprised to see Zhang Xiaohua immediately sit at other tables, no one sat with him, it was the previous senior brother Zhai, although his attitude was respectful, but he also picked up a chair next to him and sat down, not at the same table with him.

Just when the dining room was a little messy, it suddenly fell silent again, and a disciple about thirty years old, with a slightly yellow face and eyebrows similar to a broomstick, stood at the door of the dining room with a frown.

Zhang Xiaohua, who was bowing her head and eating vegetables, was also stunned, it was very obvious, this silence was to welcome this disciple, and the yellow-skinned disciple, sweeping the entire dining room, it was easy to see Zhang Xiaohua sitting alone on the side, she was frowning slightly, and she was even tighter, and she was about to come over, looking at Zhang Xiaohua with her head down, she didn't speak, she just sat down with her butt down, and ate as usual.

Seeing this, Zhang Xiaohua had no choice but to raise her head and nod slightly at the disciple, but unfortunately, people only glanced at him and did not respond, "It's really a personality" Zhang Xiaohua laughed at herself in her heart.

It is also strange that since this disciple came, the dining room immediately regained its calm, even if someone turned their heads to each other, it was extremely low, and if they didn't prick up their ears, they couldn't hear it at all.

The time of the meal was also very fast, but Zhang Xiaohua was sitting depressed, and it was easy to see that Senior Brother Zhai was eating about the same, Zhang Xiaohua stood up, looked at Senior Brother Zhai, and was about to turn around, when she heard the disciple in front of her who had been eating with his head bowed and said, "You ...... Is it an alchemy disciple recommended by Senior Sister Zhang?"

Zhang Xiaohua looked at the disciple, nodded and said, "In the next appointment, I will also ask this senior brother for advice." ”

"Well, okay, there is a place to teach you in the future" The disciple said as he lowered his head to eat again, ignoring Zhang Xiaohua again.
