Xiaoyao Sect, one of the five major sects in the mainland, is located in a secret place in the vast main country, and it is difficult for ordinary people to enter. Their only connection to the mundane world is that they are supporters of the vast lord on the continent, accepting offerings from the vast lord and providing protection to it, but most of the time, this sect is closed to the outside world. In fact, almost all the cultivators in the vast continent who have a fixed sect or family cultivation location live such a life, that is, the cultivators and the cultivators have their own methods and ways of communication and communication, and most of the ways and means are unknown to mortals, even if the location is in the downtown area of the mortal world, the monks have a way to make it impossible for mortals to notice. Only some casual cultivators who have no place to settle are willing to reveal their identity as monks in the mundane world due to various reasons such as lack of cultivation materials, and of course, the monks don't mind coming out to show their strength when it comes to the rise and fall of the family and the country, as well as grievances and hatreds like Princess Shuirao. To put it simply, monks will automatically and spontaneously separate themselves from mortals, and if a monk causes trouble to the mortal world, it will even trigger a hunt or a large-scale wanted in the region, because after all, mortals are the foundation of monks.

At this time, Sun Fu and Zhao Forget had already returned to the Xiaoyao Sect with Princess Shui Rao. What catches your eye is a pastoral scenery with beautiful mountains and rivers, and the people who come and go do not look like cultivators. In the eyes of Sun Fu and Zhao Wang, they came to a beautiful village, the village is backed by two low peaks, and a bluestone avenue leads directly to the valley between the two peaks.

Princess Shui Rao led the way towards the valley, but Xiaohong, who was good at observing the color, seemed to sense their doubts, and whispered to them as she walked: "This is the place where all kinds of subordinates in the Xiaoyao Sect live, such as gardeners, gardeners or something, our Xiaoyao Sect is a place of cultivation, but many small things still need some manual care, and as one of the five major sects, it is always difficult for the disciples under the sect to do some rough work every day." However, these subordinates are actually very happy to work here, because the aura in the sect is strong, even if they just live here, they will enjoy inexhaustible benefits, and you laymen will slowly know. ”

Princess Shui Rao smiled at Xiaohong's general explanation, and did not interrupt him, and after a while, the four of them entered the valley, turned two corners, and the peaks on both sides disappeared as if they had been suddenly split, and the front suddenly opened up. A large group of carved beams and paintings, each with its own purpose of the building appeared in front of the front, the first of a huge archway eye-catching, on the book Xiaoyaozong three golden characters, this time, they really arrived.

In front of the archway, four young men in sky-blue robes stood as guards, and when they saw the five people, they clasped their fists and shouted: "Uncle Shui Rao is good." ”

Princess Shui Rao stopped, let out a soft "um", and then pointed at Sun Fu and said to one of them, "This is my newly accepted disciple, named Sun Fu." You help me bring him to Tingyun Pavilion to wait, I still have some things, and I will go to him when I am done. ”

The four of them bowed, and one of them stepped out and said, "Senior Brother Sun, please come here." ”

Sun Fu was about to follow this person, but he heard Princess Shui Rao say behind him: "Don't talk nonsense. ”

Sun Fu nodded and followed the disciple as he walked away.

Then Princess Shui Rao took Xiaohong and Zhao Forget to walk in, many people greeted Shui Rao along the way, and Princess Shui Rao also responded without a match, but the sharp-eyed Zhao Forget found out about the situation, the color of the people's robes here is divided into blue, blue, gray and white, but when the person wearing the white robe in the four colors greets Shui Rao, Shui Rao will respond or even pause slightly, and when the people wearing other three-color robes say hello, Shui Rao just nodded, which makes Zhao Forget have some thoughts in his heart: It seems that there are four similar forces here, and Princess Shui Rao can only represent one of the forces, and she must pay attention to it when contacting other people in the future。 He suddenly remembered that when he first arrived at the sect, Princess Shui Rao had told Sun Fu to pay attention to his words, and the four of them were wearing blue robes, which strengthened his thoughts.

After walking for nearly half an hour, all kinds of houses were gone, and a valley appeared in front of him, when Zhao Forget was still thinking about his new discovery, Princess Shui Rao stopped, turned around and signaled Xiaohong to stay here, and then waved to Zhao Wang, and the two entered the valley. It was a very quiet valley, and the valley was full of greenery, and there was a small stream at the bottom of the road, which flowed out of nowhere, and disappeared into the ground near the mouth of the valley. Walking to the bottom of the valley, the road was divided into four, leading to four wooden houses that were far away, Princess Shui Rao took Zhao Forget directly to the door of the second wooden house, and pushed the door directly.

There was no furnishings in the room, and it was simply outrageous—only two futons woven of green vines. An old man with white hair and a red face in a white robe with gold patterns on his placket stood by the futon, looking at the two people who entered.

After Zhao Forget turned around and brought the door, he found that the two of them were already sitting on the futon, so they stood behind Princess Shui Rao. He originally thought that Princess Shui Rao would introduce the old man, but he didn't want her to just wave at random, and Zhao Forget found that he couldn't move his body, and she obviously saw the old man's mouth moving, but she couldn't hear any sound. Until he didn't know how long it took, when he found Princess Shui Rao standing up, he heard Princess Shui Rao's voice in his ears, "Then please." ”

"Good. The old man only said one word, and then Princess Shui Rao left, leaving the inexplicable Zhao Wang, looking at the person in front of him blankly.

"You're—"

"Shhhhhhhh

It wasn't until a moment later that he heard a sigh from the house not far to the left, "What a child is not polite now," that the old man put down his hand. According to the distance between the wooden houses, this sentence should not have been transmitted to the house they were in, but now it really reached Zhao Wang's ears, and Zhao Wang couldn't help but feel that this was indeed a strange world, looking at the old man in front of him, he found that he was pinching the trick with both hands and seemed to have laid some magic circle, and then pointed to the futon on the ground, signaling Zhao Wang to sit down.

"What did you just want to say?" asked the old man, sitting on the futon at the top.

"Who are you?" Zhao asked.

"I'm Shui Rao's uncle. The old man replied.

"Who is the person who just spoke? You seem to be scared. Zhao Forget asked again.

"Just now, Shui Rao's master is also my Taoist companion. I wasn't afraid of him, but I didn't want to disturb him. The old man replied.

"Why did Princess Shui Rao leave me here?" Zhao Forget asked again.

"Because she wants me to take care of you, uh, to be exact, I found that we are more connected, so I decided to take you as an apprentice. The old man replied.

"Uh, where is this?" Zhao Wang.

"Hehe, you finally asked a more meaningful question, this is the Elder Pavilion of the Xiaoyao Sect, Xiaoyao Valley. ”

Zhao Forget also found that he had asked so many questions and seemed that the other party was slightly ridiculous and avoided the specific things, but he still decided to try again: "Will I be able to see Princess Shui Rao again?"

"Hehe, good question. The old man nodded, "I guess it won't be possible in a short time." ”

"Why?" Zhao was shocked.

"Because she's going to do something very complicated and far-reaching, she can't take care of you next. The old man replied.

Zhao Forget was helpless, "Can you tell me carefully?"

"Okay, but how about we make a game first?" said the old man with a grin.

After Zhao Forget nodded in agreement, the old man took out a dice clock from the sleeve of his robe, uncovered one of the dice and covered it, shook it a few times, put it in front of him, pointed to Zhao Wang, and said, "Guess!"

"Three points. ”

The old man immediately opened it, and Zhao Wang's probe saw that it was exactly three o'clock. Again, Zhao Forget hit again, and the third time was still. The fourth time, the fifth, dozens of times, Zhao Wang, all of them hit, at this time even Zhao Wang, he was a little confused, when did he have this ability, he was very excited, but he was far from forgetting his original intention, so after the thirty-second guess, he couldn't help asking: "Are you going to teach me to gamble?"

"No!" the old man suddenly looked at him seriously and said, "What I want to teach you is divination!"

So in the following days, Zhao Wang, together with the old man and this dice clock, practiced "divination".

And at this time, Sun Fu was a different kind of affection.

Just like the Elder Pavilion is not a Pavilion, the Tingyun Pavilion is not a Pavilion, they are all a name for a certain area within the Xiaoyao Sect. Tingyun Pavilion is a large courtyard consisting of five courtyards, the middle one is the largest, and the other four are slightly smaller, and it is located in the north of the second half of the entire Xiaoyao Sect. This is one of the few places in the Xiaoyao Sect that is both high-level and relatively deserted, and it is said to be high-level because the geographical location, the size of the space, and even the concentration of aura that is conducive to cultivation are almost the same as the Xiaoyao Pavilion where the head lives, and there is no other reason for saying that it is deserted, the master here never preaches seriously, nor does he instruct the disciples to practice, and he does not welcome other side branch disciples to visit, so if the four branches of the Xiaoyao Sect are allowed to jointly evaluate a place they don't like the most, it is definitely here. The owner here is Princess Shui Rao.

Sun Fu didn't feel that Tingyun Pavilion was deserted, because it was the first time he had actually come to the place where the cultivator lived, and he thought that it should be so quiet. However, after a few vague inquiries from the "junior brother" who led the way on the road, Sun Fu obviously noticed some jealousy, as for why, he had to wait for Princess Shui Rao to answer for him.
