In an instant, everyone's eyes fell on this inconspicuous disciple of Dazhu Peak, Tian Buyi glanced at Su Ru, Su Ru smiled slightly and nodded.

Everyone in Dazhufeng was smiling and gathered around, Lu Daxin patted Zhang Xiaofan on the shoulder and said with a smile: "Stinky boy, I can't see that you are so lucky!"

Zhang Xiaofan scratched his head and stuck out his tongue, and his heart changed from surprise at the beginning to surprise. Du Bishu on the side suddenly patted his head regretfully, and said: "I knew that I should have made a bet on who won this lottery just now, hehe, it must be a big upset, all killed!"

"Go, go," Tian Ling'er smacked him, turned his head to Zhang Xiaofan and said, "Xiaofan, it's useless for you to enter the second round anyway, it's better to sign this to me!"

Zhang Xiaofan didn't expect his senior sister to say this, he was stunned for a moment, and with an "oh" sound, he handed over the note that said "one".

Song Daren's face changed slightly, he looked around, and said in a low voice: "Little junior sister, don't mess around." ”

Tian Ling'er smiled "fluttering", as bright as a peach blossom, her cheeks were slightly red like jade, she stretched out her fingers like green onions, flicked it lightly on Zhang Xiaofan's forehead, and said, "Little fool, I'm joking with you." ”

Zhang Xiaofan blinked his eyes and laughed too.

At this time, on the elder's side, Cangsong Daoren frowned, and then said loudly: "Okay, since the lottery has been completed, all the disciples will come to me and report their names according to the signature number, and then post it on the red list, and you will know who your opponent is." Now, I would like to give the floor to the senior brother in charge. ”

The disciples who were originally a little noisy heard that the head of the sect, Dao Xuan Zhenren, was going to come out to speak, and they all fell silent. Dao Xuan Zhenren stood up from his seat, walked slowly in front of everyone, glanced at the disciples, and then said, "Everyone, you are all the young generation of my Qingyun Sect, and your qualifications and talents are all outstanding. In the future, the position of the head of the Qingyun Sect, the elders, and even me, the head of the sect, is very likely to be held by the best of you. ”

The disciples of Qingyun shook for a while, and many of them showed yearning and excitement on their faces.

Dao Xuan Zhenren smiled kindly and said, "Of course, if you want to reach this step and sit in the position of these first elders behind me, you still need to work harder. ”

Everyone said in unison, "Yes." ”

Dao Xuan Zhenren covered his long beard with his hand, nodded, and said: "I, Qingyun Sect, have always been famous and righteous since the Qingyunzi Patriarch established the sect, and now I am the leader of the righteous path in the world. Under the party, the righteous path is prosperous, the evil demons retreat, and the world enjoys peace. But the remnants of the demonic path, jiān is sinister and vicious, its heart is immortal, and it seems to have a stupid tendency over the years, at this time, it is even more necessary for us and other people in the righteous path to hold the way hoe jiān, so you must concentrate on cultivating the way, firm mind, as long as we are strong and self-reliant, then there will be no gap in the evil demon outer way!"

The disciples shouted, "Follow the instructions of the master!"

Dao Xuan Zhenren smiled and said, "Okay, good." In addition, I would like to announce to you: in order to encourage the disciples of Qingyunmen to work hard towards the Dao and practice inspiringly, I discussed with all the first elders and decided to start with this Seven Veins Martial Arts, and give a small reward to the final winner every time after the Seven Veins Martial Arts Test. ”

"Ah!!" there was a stir among the Qingyun disciples.

Dao Xuan Zhenren looked at these young disciples and said with a smile: "The prize this time is the '** mirror'." ”

"What is it?" Zhang Xiaofan was stunned for a moment, he had never heard of this thing, and couldn't help but look around, but saw that Tian Ling'er, Du Bishu and others were also at a loss, and the young disciples of the other veins around him didn't seem to know very well, but disciples such as Qi Hao, Song Daren, Wen Min and other disciples who had been in the beginners for a long time changed their faces, and their faces showed rare excitement and yearning.

Tian Ling'er and the others also noticed that Senior Brother and the others seemed to know something, and leaned over and asked quietly, "Senior Brother, what is the **mirror?"

Song Daren said in a low voice: "** Mirror is the magic weapon handed down by the tenth generation patriarch of this sect, I have never seen the specific appearance, but I have heard the master say before, this is one of the treasures of this sect, it is extremely powerful, and it is even more wonderful, as long as the spiritual power of the user is strong enough, the ** mirror can be counterattacked, so as to be invincible." ”

Everyone opened their mouths wide, and Du Bishu stammered a little: "Then, isn't that invincible in the world?"

Song Daren shrugged his shoulders and said, "Anyway, I don't know exactly what it looks like, but what Master said will never be wrong, this time," he glanced at Dao Xuan Zhenren, lowered his voice, and said, "It seems that this time the head and the master seem to have made a lot of money!"

Everyone's faces were a little strange, and most of them seemed to be secretly swallowing their saliva, it seemed that the treasures were in front of them, even if they were cultivators, they would inevitably be greatly moved.

Dao Xuan Zhenren paused for a while, smiled and watched the young disciples talk about it, and after a while, he said: "Okay, that's basically the case, you go back and take a rest, early in the morning, the Seven Veins Martial Arts will start the competition." ”

The Qingyun disciples saluted in unison and said in unison, "Yes, the head of the sect is a real person." ”

Dao Xuan Zhenren nodded and said, "You guys go." ”

All the disciples gradually retreated, and only the head of the seven veins of Qingyunmen and a dozen elders were left in the main hall, Dao Xuan Zhenren turned around and smiled at those elders: "Senior brothers, you should also go back and rest earlier, starting from Mingrì, there will be many competitions, and you need to worry a lot." ”

Some of those elders were full of white hair and wrinkles, and some of them looked young and tight, and they had skills in their appearance, and at this moment they listened to the words of Dao Xuan Zhenren, and they didn't say much one by one, so they walked out one by one, and in the end, on the Yuqing Palace, only the first seat of the seven veins of Qingyunmen remained.

Dao Xuan Zhenren slowly put away the kind smile he had been hanging on his face, his eyes swept over the other six people sitting on the chair, and said lightly: "Okay, now there are only seven of us." ”

Shang Zhengliang, the first seat of "Chaoyang Peak" sitting on the right, frowned and said, "Senior Brother in charge, do you have anything to say to us?"

Dao Xuan Zhenren nodded, his face expressionless, and said slowly: "I went to see Lingzun just now. ”

As soon as these words came out, everyone's faces changed.

※※※

Walking down the steps, the disciples were still trembling when they passed by the edge of the blue water pool, but this time the water qilin fell asleep peacefully, and there was no movement.

After crossing the Hongqiao and returning to the huge square of the "Sea of Clouds", which was like a fairyland, Lin Jingyu said a few words to Zhang Xiaofan, and then went with the disciples of Longshou Peak. Zhang Xiaofan watched him walk away, and then walked back to Dazhufeng and the others, listening to Song Daren say some precautions and accommodation to everyone, Zhang Xiaofan listened and listened, and suddenly remembered something, and shouted: "Oops, it's bad!"

Everyone was taken aback, Tian Ling'er stood beside him and said, "Xiaofan, what's wrong?"

Zhang Xiaofan looked around and said hurriedly: "I just cared about talking to Jing Yu, I forgot about Xiao Ash, and now I don't know where it went?"

Only then did everyone remember, and sure enough, they didn't notice the trace of the gray-haired monkey, and then they all looked around, only to see the white clouds and the disciples of each vein gradually dispersed, but there was no shadow of the monkey Xiao Gray.

Zhang Xiaofan is in a hurry, since he brought Xiao Ash back from the valley two years ago, in the past two years, one person and one monkey (and later added the big dog Rhubarb) have lived in the same house, and the feelings are very deep, seeing this Tongtian Peak towering into the clouds, the upper and lower places are incredibly large, in case Xiao Ash runs somewhere to find wild fruits to eat, but how can he find it?

Just in a hurry, Zhang Xiaofan suddenly heard Tian Ling'er on the other side "Huh", turned his head to look, and saw Tian Ling'er smiling, pointing ahead, and said with a smile: "Look." ”

When everyone looked at it, they couldn't help but laugh dumbly, only to see Xiao Gray sitting firmly on the back of the big yellow dog that Tian Buyi raised, "squeaking" in his mouth, waving his monkey paw to Zhang Xiaofan, and the big yellow dog running here closed his mouth tightly, and actually bit a meat bone that he got out of nowhere.

Not long after, Rhubarb ran to him with Xiao Ash, Xiao Ash jumped on Zhang Xiaofan's shoulder three times and two times, Zhang Xiaofan hurriedly touched its monkey head, pretended to be angry and said, "Where did you run to?"

Xiao Ash was not afraid, and pointed to the rhubarb who was lying on the ground and gnawing on the meat bones with a smile, and pointed at the "squeak" sound more than painting, Zhang Xiaofan looked at it for a long time, and suddenly said: "Where did this meat and bones come from?"

When Xiao Ash heard this, he was comparing pictures again, and at the same time pointed to the direction at the end of the square, Zhang Xiaofan looked at Song Daren, only to see Song Daren quickly looked around, his face was quite embarrassed and funny, he lowered his voice, and whispered: "There is the kitchen where the disciples of Nagato eat." ”

Everyone was stunned, then they all laughed and shook their heads, Song Daren took the lead and walked to the other side, and said, "Let's also go to the resting house, by the way, little junior sister, you are a woman, and I arranged for you to live with Xiaozhufeng's junior sisters, do you have no opinion?"

Tian Ling'er shook her head and smiled: "I originally wanted to talk to Sister Wen Min a few more words, and at the same time, I can help Senior Brother you say a few more good words." ”

Everyone laughed, Song Daren's face turned red, pretended not to hear, and strode out, everyone behind him laughed and talked, Zhang Xiaofan, who walked at the end, did not participate in it, but glared at the gray monkey on his shoulder and said: "Dead monkey, you will run to be a thief in the future, see how I treat you." ”

Xiao Ash squeaked twice, grinned, and didn't know if he didn't understand it, or didn't take Zhang Xiaofan's words to heart at all.

Zhang Xiaofan scolded it a few more words, walked forward, took a few steps, remembered something, turned his head and said loudly: "Let's go, dead dog, you know how to eat!"

Rhubarb, who was lying on the ground and gnawing on the meat bones, finally raised his eyes, and saw that everyone had gone away, so he stood up, picked up the half-eaten meat bones and chased after him lazily.

※※※

On the Yuqing Palace, the first seat of the seven veins of Qingyun Gate gathered here, and at this time, their attention was attracted by Dao Xuan Zhenren.

The first Tianyun Dao person of "Luoxia Peak" stood up first and said, "Senior Brother in charge, then can you see what happened to Lingzun just now?"

Dao Xuan Zhenren sighed and said slowly: "I have carefully examined it, and there is nothing unusual about Lingzun. ”

"What?" said a look of surprise on everyone's faces.

Dao Xuan Zhenren looked at these fellow disciples and said, "That's true, I've watched it several times, and Lingzun is as usual, I really can't figure out why it suddenly has such a big anger, but it disappeared so quickly!"

Tian Buyi pondered for a moment and said, "I see that the target of Lingzun's attack seems to be a group of young disciples, could it be that someone is angry with it?"

"Little Bamboo Peak" The first Water Moon Master said: "Impossible, if it is really a disciple who angers Lingzun, how can Lingzun give up with one blow?"

Shui Yue looked quite beautiful, but as soon as she spoke, her voice was cold, as if with a hint of coldness, Tian Buyi glanced at her, and then stopped talking.

Dao Xuan Zhenren shook his head and said, "Lingzun is an ancient spirit beast, xìng has been psychic, and there has never been such a sudden abnormality in thousands of years, there must be a reason for this." ”

Sitting on the left side of the "Fenghui Peak" first seat, the temples are frost white, and the oldest of the seven people in the audience Uncle Zeng often said: "Could it be that the senior brother in charge has a conclusion in his heart?"

Dao Xuan Zhenren sighed lightly and said, "Don't hide it from you, I don't know anything about it. But Lingzun is my Qingyunmen Zhenshan spirit beast, it is not trivial, I wanted to use the secret 'spiritism' of this sect to find out, but unexpectedly"

Speaking of this, Dao Xuan Zhenren suddenly stopped, and the people next to him listened to half of it, and suddenly heard him stop talking, Tian Buyi first asked: "Senior brother in charge, what's wrong?"

Dao Xuan Zhenren looked embarrassed and said: "This spiritism is a side skill, but it can be used to communicate with Lingzun a little, but when I wanted to use it, Lingzun was already asleep, and I couldn't do it." ”

The crowd was dumbfounded.

Dao Xuan Zhenren coughed dryly twice, and said: "Don't worry about this matter, after Lingzun wakes up, we will think about it in the long run." And there is one more matter at the moment, I would like to discuss it with you. ”

When everyone saw that Dao Xuan's real face was strict, it didn't seem to be a trivial matter, so they all put away their smiles and sat down.

Dao Xuan Zhenren also sat back in his seat, pondered for a while, and then said, "Ladies and gentlemen, do you know that there is a 'Empty Mulberry Mountain' three thousand miles away in the east?" (Note 1)

Everyone was stunned, and Cangsong Daoist first came back to his senses and said, "What the senior brother in charge said is that Kongsang Mountain with the 'Ten Thousand Bat Ancient Caves'?"

Dao Xuan Zhenren nodded and said, "Exactly." ”

Uncle Zeng frowned and said, "I heard that the 'Ten Thousand Bat Ancient Cave' is a natural giant cave, which goes straight to the ground, unfathomable, and it is cold and wet, and only countless bats are born in it, and it is said that there are millions of them. How could Senior Brother bring up this kind of barren land?"

Dao Xuan Zhenren said slowly: "You don't know, although this Ten Thousand Bat Ancient Cave seems to be not close to humans and animals, it was an important stronghold of the Demon Sect eight hundred years ago. The cold and wet in that ancient cave is just right for those evil demons to practice demon methods. Later, under the siege and suppression of my righteous people, the demon sect was defeated and retreated, and this place was deserted. ”

Master Shuiyue opened his mouth coldly and said, "What does the senior brother in charge mean by mentioning it again at this moment?"

Shui Yue's attitude towards Dao Xuan like this can be said to be quite unfriendly, but everyone here knows that Master Shui Yue has always spoken like this to people, and Dao Xuan Zhenren didn't take it to heart, only sighed, and said: "Senior Sister Shui Yue doesn't know, just half a year ago, I got a copy of the Incense Valley, saying that there seemed to be signs of the remnants of the Demon Sect near the Ten Thousand Bat Ancient Cave recently, and asked for my opinion. ”

When Chaoyang Feng Shang Zhengliang heard this, he smiled and said: "Isn't this good, Xiao Yicai's master and nephew are extremely talented, and his cultivation is deep, he is actually the best in Qingyunmen, and he was even more successful in the last Seven Veins Martial Arts Examination." With him gone, what else can't be done?"

Dao Xuan Zhenren smiled slightly, and said: "Senior Brother Shang has a good reputation, but Yi only went to Kongsang Mountain, and a few months later, there was a message back, and Yan Dao did find that there were people in the Demon Sect who were active near the Ten Thousand Bat Ancient Caves, and their purpose was even more amazing. ”

Everyone was taken aback, and Uncle Zeng often said, "What?"

Dao Xuan Zhenren's face was calm, and he couldn't see any joy, anger and sorrow, and said: "According to Yicai's letter, he captured a demon sect disciple and forced him to ask from his mouth, it turned out that the Ten Thousand Bat Ancient Cave was the headquarters of the 'Blood Refining Hall' of a branch of the Demon Sect eight hundred years ago, and at that time, the Blood Refining Hall was strong and one of the five major forces of the Demon Sect, but after being defeated by my righteous path ancestors, it collapsed, and the Ten Thousand Bat Ancient Cave was also abandoned. But somehow, in recent years, the Blood Refining Hall, which has been in decline for a long time, seems to have raised its head again, and it is said in the Blood Refining Hall that there was a battle in the Ten Thousand Bat Ancient Caves, although the main characters of the Blood Refining Hall were all ambushed under the sword of my righteous people, but in the Ten Thousand Bat Ancient Caves, there is a hidden treasure cave, which contains many rare treasures, demon books and evil scrolls, and has never been discovered. ”

Speaking of this, everyone had already understood, and the Cangsong Daoist sneered and said, "The evil demon is crooked, wishful thinking!"

Dao Xuan Zhenren shook his head and said, "Regardless of whether this rumor is true or not, as far as I know, after that battle eight hundred years ago, the righteous people did not find any secret cave treasure troves in the Ten Thousand Bat Ancient Caves. It's okay for the rest, but if there really is this treasure cave, I'm afraid that there will be a big evil thing in it, but we can't guard against it. ”

Everyone looked at Dao Xuan, and Tianyun Dao said, "Senior brother, what kind of fierce thing are you referring to, so important?"

Dao Xuan Zhenren glanced at the people around him, and said in a deep voice: "Blood Devouring Bead!"

Everyone was moved, and Cangsong Dao was surprised: "Didn't this murderous thing disappear with the death of the black-hearted old man?"

Dao Xuan Zhenren shook his head and said, "Otherwise, although the black-hearted old man is dead, the blood-devouring bead may not be lost in the world." It seems that such a fierce thing cannot be mastered by idle people, and if the demon sect demon does not practice enough, it is unknown to collect it. Moreover, the black-hearted old man was born in the blood refining hall of the Demon Sect back then, so I speculate that it is likely that the blood devouring bead is in this secret cave. ”

Everyone was silent for a while when they heard Dao Xuan Zhenren's words, and for a while, it was the cold Shuiyue Master who spoke: "What does the senior brother in charge think?"

Dao Xuan Zhendao: "After I received Yicai's message, I immediately informed the Burning Incense Valley and Tianyin Temple, and soon these two major sects also replied, saying that they would also send proud disciples to Kongsang Mountain to stop the demon cult evildoers. ”

Tian Buyi frowned and said, "What does the senior brother mean?"

A smile appeared on Dao Xuan Zhenren's face, and he said: "Speaking of which, this is also a rare opportunity to practice, although there are many young talents in my Qingyun Sect, most of them have not gone out to cultivate, and the world has been stable all these years, and they have never confronted the demon sect demons. Taking advantage of the opportunity of this seven-vein martial arts, I plan to send the top four young disciples to Kongsang Mountain together, on the one hand, I can stop the demon sect demons from going perverse, and on the other hand, I can also experience experience and gain a long insight. Moreover," he put away his smile, his face changed to stern, and said, "And I heard that in the past hundred years, Tianyin Temple and Incense Valley have produced several outstanding disciples, and their talents are proud, so if we sit idly by, I am afraid that in the future, the position of this righteous path leader will be difficult to protect." If that's the case, I'll have no shame to go to see the Patriarch!"

Everyone was www.biquge.info in the pavilion, and Cangsong Daoren was the first to say: "Senior brother in charge is far-sighted, and he is very right. ”

Dao Xuan looked at the first seat and said, "In this case, you all have no opinions. ”

Everyone nodded yes.

Dao Xuan Zhenren: "Okay, then it's decided." In the Yuqing Palace, a residence has been arranged for all the senior brothers, please go and rest. As he spoke, he slapped his palm three times in a row, and several Taoist children immediately approached outside the door. "You lead you to your rooms to rest. ”

The Dao Tong went up in response, and all the leaders stood up, saluted Dao Xuan Zhenren, and followed.

Note 1: From the fourth volume of the "Classic of Mountains and Seas", "The Classic of the East Mountain": the first of the two classics in the east, it is called the mountain of empty mulberry, bordering the water in the north, looking at Fu Wu in the east, looking at Shaling in the south, and looking at Luze in the west.
