Tongtian Peak, outside the Law Enforcement Palace, there is a small courtyard that is not large in area, but extremely neat and peaceful.

Zhang Xiaofan lay flat on the bed, breathing very steadily, cutting the bamboo for a day, barely cutting the thinnest one, which really tired him a lot.

In the night, the window is slightly oblique, and there is a faint moonlight, which shines obliquely in, sprinkled on the blue brick floor, like frost and snow.

And in the moonlight, a slender figure also appeared, appearing next to Zhang Xiaofan's bed.

Lin Nuo's gaze swept over Zhang Xiaofan, and then with a wave of his robe, the next moment, a dark purple dull bead flew out of Zhang Xiaofan's clothes and landed in his palm.

This is a somewhat ugly bead, by the moonlight, lined with the moonlight and clear light, I saw that the color of the bead actually became lighter, turned into a light purple, translucent, vaguely saw a faint green gas in the rotation of non-stop, as if there is spirituality, want to break out of the shell.

It's just that every time he approaches the surface of the bead, a small "*" will light up there, blocking it back.

This is a bloodthirsty bead, a treasure refined by the black-hearted old man who unified the Demon Sect eight hundred years ago, which can devour living beings and the essence blood of monks to enhance their own power, which is a magic weapon that can grow.

However, at this time, the bloodthirsty power in this bead was sealed by the secret technique of Buddhism, which also made this Demon Sect treasure look ordinary, no different from ordinary Buddha beads.

Lin Nuo observed for a moment, then shook his head, ready to return the bloodthirsty bead, this kind of cult treasure was not attractive to him.

"Who...... Who's here?"

It's just that suddenly, Zhang Xiaofan, who was sleeping soundly on the bed, suddenly got up and looked at Lin Nuo, which made Lin Nuo slightly surprised, but he didn't expect that this kid had just started to cultivate, and his vigilance was far beyond that of most cultivators.

"Division... Master?"

After seeing the person through the moonlight, Zhang Xiaofan's heart tightened, why did the master suddenly appear in his room in the middle of the night?

"How did you get this bead?"

"I ...... I ......" Zhang Xiaofan didn't say a result, this was his secret, it was inconvenient for him to say, but he didn't want to lie and deceive his master, his face was flushed for a while, and he was a little at a loss.

"It's inconvenient to say?" Lin Nuo smiled indifferently, he was also clear about Zhang Xiaofan's character, although this kid was wooden, he was also very stubborn, and he wouldn't say anything about promising others.

Besides, he was also very clear about the origin of this bead, and asked casually, just to see how he would react.

The result was not bad, although this kid didn't speak, but at least he didn't make up lies, which still made Lin Nuo feel more satisfied.

"If you don't want to say it, then you don't have to say it!"

Handing the bloodthirsty bead to Zhang Xiaofan, Lin Nuo turned around, greeted the faint moonlight, and walked towards the door.

"Go to bed early, you will continue to chop bamboo tomorrow, you are still too weak now!"

When he said the word too weak, Lin Nuo's voice was a little low, as if he had thought of something, and his figure slowly disappeared into the night.

Zhang Xiaofan pinched the beads in his hand and was a little stunned for a while.

He couldn't figure out what the master meant by coming here in the middle of the night, was it really just to see the ugly bead in his hand?

After putting away the beads, Zhang Xiaofan lay flat on the bed, with a shallow smile on the corner of his mouth, although Shizun's tone was still flat, he could feel that Shizun's attitude towards him was slightly gentler than during the day.

"Maybe Master, it's not as difficult as others say!"

......

Whether Lin Nuo's master is good or not, Zhang Xiaofan is not sure, but he has no talent in cultivation, and he has almost been understood by the entire Tongtian Peak disciples.

After three years of entry, the first layer of Tai Chi Xuanqing Dao Jade Qingjing Realm can be practiced, and this speed is three times slower than that of normal people.

You must know that the Qingyunmen exercises, the first layer is the easiest to cultivate, and those with good qualifications can be practiced in a few months, even if they are ordinary people, one year is completely enough.

But Zhang Xiaofan broke the record of thousands of Qingyunmen, and left a joke that made countless Qingyunmen disciples smack their tongues for three years.

In order to cultivate to reach the first layer of the Yuqing Realm, Zhang Xiaofan did not have the slightest joy, he knew in his heart that with his cultivation speed, he had already become a joke in the sect, and it was estimated that the master had already given up on him completely.

But fortunately, although Shizun was called a cold-faced god by outsiders, at least he never reprimanded him, and even sometimes comforted him gently, never showing his intention to expel him from the sect.

For this, Zhang Xiaofan was very grateful in his heart, he knew in his heart that with his qualifications, he was not qualified to worship the immortal cultivation sect at all, if it wasn't for the master to take him in, he would probably have become a lonely wanderer!

"Master, I've embarrassed you!"

In the back hall of the Law Enforcement Palace, Zhang Xiaofan stood in the hall a little nervously, looking at the master who was in the center and was sitting cross-legged on the futon meditating and cultivating.

As a disciple of the hall master Lin Nuo, Zhang Xiaofan still has some privileges, at least, every month, he has the opportunity to meet his master once a month and get the teacher's guidance in person.

"Cultivated to the first layer of the Jade Qing Realm?"

Lin Nuo opened his eyes, sensed the breath on Zhang Xiaofan's body, and nodded lightly at the moment.

"The dual cultivation of Buddhism and Taoism, it only took three years to reach the first level of the Jade Qing Realm, and your qualifications are also good!"

Shizun was obviously praising himself, but Zhang Xiaofan's face suddenly turned pale, and his whole body was trembling, and there was a kind of crumbling tendency, as if a gust of wind could blow him down.

"Master....... You see that?"

Zhang Xiaofan's heart was cold, in the past few years, when he was practicing the Qingyunmen exercises, he was also practicing the Buddhism's Dafa Prajna exercises, which were the exercises taught by an old monk before the Caomiao Village tragedy.

I thought that as long as the Buddhist exercises were not displayed, they would not be discovered, but I didn't expect that in the end, I still couldn't hide the eyes of the master!

Qingyunmen is a Taoist sect, Zhang Xiaofan has been in the sect for three years, and he is no longer the ignorant stupid boy he was before, so he naturally knows that when he cultivates Taoist exercises, he also practices Buddhist exercises, which can be regarded as a taboo in the cultivation world.

If you don't get it right, you will probably be identified as a spy from the Buddhist sect, it doesn't matter if you die, you may even involve your companion Lin Jingyu, if this is the case, then your own sin will be great.

"What, there's nothing you want to say to the teacher?"

Seeing Zhang Xiaofan standing in place and not saying a word, Lin Nuo's voice had a hint of majesty in it, which fell into Zhang Xiaofan's ears, like a thunderbolt exploding, and he sat on the ground in shock.
