Zhang Li's first reaction was to turn around immediately, and then quickly ran towards the courtyard where the outer gate elder Qu Cheng was located. At this moment, perhaps only Elder Qu could save his life.

"Want to run?" Lu Duanming sneered, and a flying pounce forward had already choked Zhang Li's neck. Zhang Li suddenly felt that it was difficult to breathe, and at the same time, the serious injury in his body immediately came with intense and unbearable pain.

"Division... Senior brother, what the hell are you... Think... What do you want?" Zhang Li knew that he could not be Lu Papi's opponent anyway, so Suo directly gave up struggling.

"Hmph, what do you want? I want your life. It's only to blame you for hearing things you shouldn't have heard. Lu Duanming snorted lightly, and then the thought of torturing Zhang Li suddenly rose in his heart.

With a 'bang', Zhang Li was kicked hard by Lu Duanming on the thick snow. 'Huh' Lu Duanming was suddenly a little surprised, and secretly said in his heart: "This kid has no cultivation at all, he is thin and weak, he was kicked so hard by me during the day, and now he eats me again, can he still survive until now?"

Zhang Li only felt that all the internal organs in his body seemed to be displaced, the hot pain was one after another, and the corners of his mouth began to slowly ooze blood.

He struggled to his feet, but suddenly he felt a pair of large hands like pincers grasp the back of his neck, followed by a loud 'bang', and his head was smashed into the snow. The ice tweezers he brought up were stained with Zhang Li's blood and scattered in all directions.

There was a burst of Venus in front of him, and Zhang Li suddenly felt as if his soul was about to fall into the wonderful state that he had ten days ago. But the change of soul made the pain in the body magnify in an instant. His soul seemed to be able to clearly perceive the trembling of every painful nerve! This clear pain made Zhang Li couldn't help but hum softly.

Lu Duanming has absolutely no mercy for a waste like Zhang Li. Quickly kicked Zhang Li again. Zhang Li rolled a few times on the snow, leaving a long blood stain, and then lay on his back on the cold, hard snow nest.

Zhang Li passed out in a coma. The two remaining spirit grasses hidden in his torn cotton jacket, as well as the food he had made for the ferret in the kitchen, were all scattered on the snow.

"Okay, I said how did you become so resistant, it turns out that you actually stole Lao Tzu's spirit grass. And stealing food from the kitchen, Ma, damn it. Lu Duanming scolded, and suddenly had a vicious plan.

Lu Duanming said secretly: "Although this kid is a waste, he is also a disciple of the Luogu Sword Sect in name. If I beat him to death, I would inevitably be interrogated. It's better to hand him over to Elder Qu, and say that this kid stole the spiritual grass in the medicine garden, and he will die with this alone, and Lao Tzu can still clear up the relationship. ”

Thinking of this, Lu Duanming couldn't help but show a hint of a cruel smile......

The separate courtyard of the outer gate elder Qucheng.

"Lu Duanming, what you said is true?" Qu Cheng asked coldly with an old face.

"Elder Hui, the disciple doesn't dare to say half a lie. Zhang Li's uneaten spirit grass and food are all here, you just need to check this waste...... Zhang Li's body knows it. Lu Duanming's face was respectful.

Qu Cheng had already reached the realm of the ninth layer of Qi acceptance, and he could already initially use his divine sense. He carefully examined Zhang Li's body and found that Zhang Li's body did indeed have the aura of the elixir spirit grass remaining in it. But he also faintly noticed something else. This thing startled his heart, and then his eyes flashed, and then quickly retracted.

Qu Cheng remained silent and said to Lu Duanming lightly: "Okay, you can go." I'll handle Zhang Li's affairs. ”

Lu Duanming naturally didn't dare to say anything, and soon left respectfully.

Qu Cheng immediately closed the door, and then carefully probed Zhang Li's body several times, and said in his heart: "There is a faint strange aura in this kid's body, but why can't I find it? Moreover, this Zhang Li is a well-known waste in Wanglong Mountain, how can such an aura appear in his body? It's really strange." ”

This peculiar aura in Zhang Sanliang made Qu Cheng feel extraordinary. The aura that could shock his heart, Qu Cheng felt that there must be something strange in it. He's about to have a very important 'building qi', so he's very concerned about anything that helps.

He wanted to directly break open Zhang Li's body and see what was inside Zhang Li, but he was afraid of causing any accidents, and he wouldn't be able to get anything out of it at that time. So after thinking about it, Qu Cheng decided to wake up Zhang Li first......

And Zhang Li, who was in a coma, felt in a daze that a slight sound of 'bang' seemed to sound in his head again...

'Hmm', Zhang Li snorted lightly, and then slowly opened his eyes. As soon as he opened his eyes, he found himself lying on a very comfortable bed.

"Zhang Li, are you awake?" a somewhat familiar old voice suddenly sounded beside Zhang Li. Zhang Li was taken aback, quickly turned his head, and found that it was actually the absolute ruler of the outer gate, Elder Qucheng!

Zhang Li was very curious about how he was here? Could it be that Elder Qucheng suddenly passed by and saved him? Thinking of this, Zhang Li himself wanted to laugh a little. The probability is infinitely close to zero.

However, he knew that he had to salute when he saw Elder Qucheng, otherwise he would be guilty of great disrespect. These high-minded people are like that, and they are happy even if your salute to him is false.

Zhang Li struggled to sit up, but Qu Cheng suddenly said, "Zhang Li, you don't have to get up and salute if you are injured." This sentence entered Zhang Li's ears, and Zhang Li simply thought that he had heard it wrong. Could it be that the sun is really coming out in the west?

At this time, I heard Qu Cheng say again: "Zhang Li, then Lu Duanming beat you like this, as an elder of the outer gate, I really don't want to go, in order to compensate you, I decided to make an exception to accept you as an apprentice, are you willing?"

Zhang Li's previous surprise had not yet come back to his senses, and he was stunned again at the moment. How could he be beaten into a coma by Lu Papi, and after waking up, could it be that the way of the world has changed? Zhang Li's soul is constantly changing, and his thinking is gradually changing. He had a vague feeling that there must be something strange in this. But no matter how strange you feel, this 'teacher' must be worshipped. Just kidding, if you don't agree, isn't that looking for death?

Zhang Li's mind instantly seemed to return to the time when he fell into the ice cave before, so he immediately said respectfully: "Master is above, please forgive the disciple for being injured and unable to kneel down." After the disciple is healed, he will bow down again. ”

Qu Cheng smiled proudly, very satisfied with Zhang Li's reaction. In Qu Cheng's eyes, Zhang Li should also have such a reaction. Then he asked Zhang Li to recuperate from his injuries and quickly left.

Zhang Li was lying on the bed, his head a little cloudy. She was almost beaten to death by Lu Papi before, but Su Xuan still didn't react at all, could it be that her agreement with herself was just a casual talk? Of course, Zhang Li felt that it would not be like this, but he couldn't understand the reason.

In fact, the reason is very simple, ten days ago, Su Xuan was ready to take away Zhang Li, but she failed because of Zhang Li's soul, and later helped Zhang Li become half of the owner of the Purple Phoenix Coffin, which has consumed too much of her soul power, so at this moment, Su Xuan has already entered a deep sleep in the Purple Phoenix Coffin.

If Zhang Li knew that Su Xuan would take away a man, I don't know how he would feel......

Zhang Li's injuries healed quickly, and he also performed the apprenticeship again. When the news of Qu Cheng's acceptance of Zhang Li as an apprentice spread throughout the Luogu Sword Sect, everyone was very surprised, very, very surprised. Subsequently, almost the entire Wanglong Mountain began to talk about the news of the explosion......

And from the moment Lu Duanming learned the news, he felt that there must be something wrong with his ears. If there is anyone who knows Zhang Li best in the entire Wanglong Mountain, then Lu Duanming thinks that it is definitely him. In his mind, it was absolutely impossible for a super waste like Zhang Li to be accepted as an apprentice by any elder, even the weakest outer sect elder Qu Cheng!

But when Zhang Li appeared in front of Lu Duanming wearing a formal disciple's uniform, Lu Duanming suddenly felt that his view of something had collapsed.

The sun was shining, and the snow everywhere didn't seem to bring cold. For the first time, Zhang Li felt that the snow scene of Wanglong Mountain was so beautiful.

Lu ...... Senior brother?" Zhang Li's tone at the moment was subdued, but to Lu Duanming's ears, it was like a needle thunderbolt, and he was uncomfortable. Lu Duanming didn't know what was going on in the middle, how could the super waste who had originally committed a 'capital crime' become the first disciple of the entire outer sect instead?

But the facts are in front of him, even if Lu Duanming is bold, he doesn't dare to offend the elders of Qucheng. He immediately knelt on the ground with a thud, hugged Zhang Li's leg and cried: "Senior Brother Zhang, you have a large number of adults, and you used to be the younger brother who didn't know Mount Tai with eyes, and asked Senior Brother Zhang to raise your noble hand." Don't worry about your little brother. ”

Zhang Liling's handsome face was slightly tinged with a strange color, and he was still a little uncomfortable with the sudden change in identity. Looking at Lu Papi, who had a handful of snot and tears, Zhang Li just shook his head, and then walked quickly towards his broken wooden house. A few days have passed, and I don't know what happened to the little ferret.

After Zhang Li's figure gradually disappeared, Lu Duanming's eyes suddenly flashed with a fierce light again: "Ma, the little white-faced waste, must have used some shady means to make Elder Qu accept him." Hmph, even if you worship the teacher, the waste is still the waste. Lu Duanming secretly spat out, and then turned around and walked away.

As soon as Zhang Li pushed open the wooden door, a snow-white shadow suddenly jumped on his shoulder, and then grabbed his hair and 'buzzed'. Zhang Li grabbed the cute little guy in his hand, and then suddenly smelled a faint smell of blood. He threw the ferret on the cot, sniffed it, leaned down to see some broken bones under the bed. Zhang Li quickly recognized that these should be the leftover bones that the little ferret had eaten after catching the snow mouse.

At this moment, the little ferret actually made a human-like 'clucking' sound on the cot. Zhang Li's heart suddenly moved, and he said secretly: "The little ferret actually makes different sounds? From the 'sizzling' sound I heard at the beginning, to the 'buzzing' sound, and then to the 'gurgling' sound just now, what do these sounds mean differently?"

Zhang Li thought about it carefully, and for the time being, he could only judge the meaning of one sound. That is, when the ferret is happy, it will make a 'buzzing' sound.

After a brief tidying up, Zhang Li took the little ferret to his new residence. Next to his master, Qucheng is a small courtyard with three neat houses...... Zhang Li entered one of the rooms and began to clean and tidy up, not noticing at all that Qu Cheng was standing in a very hidden corner and quietly watching here, with a strange look on his face.
