Chapter 18 [Zhu Li's Apprenticeship]
"Are you the scourge?" Li Chuxun was even a little incredulous, he had originally heard Xuanxin Daoist mention that there was a fire god called Huilu in the Guangming Palace of Kunlun Mountain, and the only assistant of the fire god Huilu was this calamity. In other words, the name Scourge is also taken because he always causes trouble, and it seems that it is really not false at all.
"Exactly, but this Taoist doesn't seem to have a good impression of me. Scourge said, his face was a little pale, and he stroked his body that had been pierced by thorns with one hand. must have already comprehended Li Chuxun's thorns, and after the operation, he was a little afraid of him.
"I remember you, it was you that day, and you wanted to steal those jewels and jade!" As soon as Scourge finished speaking, Zhu Li came out from the side and pointed at Scourge and said sharply.
"This young man, I think you have misunderstood! Those jewels are what the crown prince of Chengji Imperial City Yu is looking for, and with my friendship with Emperor Yan, I helped the crown prince to obtain this item, so as not to fall into the hands of Chi You, the chief of the Sanmiao clan. After saying that, Zhu Li looked like a child who had done something wrong, and his face was uneasy.
"It seems that I also misunderstood you!" Li Chuxun also blamed himself, why did he rush to act without asking right and wrong, otherwise maybe there would not be many things that would happen later.
"Scourge, why don't you stay in the Bright Palace, why are you so embarrassed?" Mu Changfeng was silent when he saw Li Chuxun finish speaking, so he asked what happened to him.
Scourge Dou lost the Samadhi True Fire when he asked the Fire God Huilu to take care of the Light Palace, until how he met the Samadhi True Fire that Master Fire Phoenix Butterfly borrowed from Sancheng Fire, and then went to the Fire Aversion Country to ask for the cultivation of the method of earth fire, and told everything about what happened after meeting Li Lu, then he swallowed his saliva and took out a flame from his mouth.
Seeing the exquisiteness of the flame, Zhu Li immediately looked envious, and then he also learned to take out the flame from his mouth, but he couldn't take out the slightest flame, so he said eagerly, "Scourge, no, Brother Scourge, can you teach me how to take out this samadhi true fire?"
"This is not something that can be learned by speaking! If you are born with the ability to spit fire, then your fire comes from the dantian! And I am refined, and the mother fire in my hand is a gift from the master of the fire phoenix butterfly!"
"My samadhi fire has only three layers of fire, but it has burned the roof of my mouth, why is it that your fire has been perfected but has not burned you in any way?"
"Has the fire of the Vulcan ever been so powerful?"
"So, do you want to see the God of Fire, why don't we have a discussion, if you win me, then I'll take you to the Palace of Light!"
"If you say it, then you can teach!"
Just as Li Chuxun was asking his master Mu Changfeng about the magic of the multicolored stone, he suddenly saw Scourge and Zhu Li actually competing for the true fire of Samadhi in the dry stream. Under the bright sun, the samadhi true fire struck by the two of them was extremely bright, and the huge gravel hit by the fireballs of the two of them turned into stone powder powder under the ravages of the samadhi true fire. Thinking that Zhu Li followed him all the way from Jinyun Village, the purpose was to worship himself as a teacher in order to learn the exquisite Taoism, so since he was now encountering the assistant of the Fire God, wouldn't it be just right for him to go to the Guangming Palace to apprentice.
Thinking of this, Li Chuxun also showed a relieved look on his face, and then told his master Mu Changfeng about this idea. Mu Changfeng agreed very much, and also showed a satisfied expression. For a boy who is born to breathe fire, and is also a true fire of Samadhi, going to the god of fire to learn the Tao is the icing on the cake and a good thing like a tiger with wings.
"Zhu Li!" Seeing that the samadhi true fire spewing out of Zhu Li's mouth was about to scorch the entire dry river, Li Chuxun shouted at him.
"Brother Chu Xun, is there something wrong?" Although he replied loudly to Li Chuxun, Zhu Li still had some admiration for Li Chuxun, so he signaled to pause with the scourge and stepped up from the river.
"Zhu Li, do you want to learn more exquisite spells, and do you want to become the pride of your Jinyun Village in the future?" Li Chuxun asked softly, and his eyes seemed to tell Zhu Li that he would have a master!
"Yes, I want to do it very much!" Hearing this, Zhu Li seemed a little excited.
"Scourge!" Seeing Scourge Dou get up from the river, Li Chuxun continued, "Trouble you, take Zhu Li to the Bright Palace to see the Fire God Huilu! I hope you can convince the Fire God to accept Zhu Li as a disciple!"
"Really, I'm afraid you won't agree, but I didn't expect us to think of going together!hahahaha!" Scourge was a little excited, and he couldn't hide the joy in his heart.
It turned out that because he lost the Samadhi True Fire, he would ask the Fire Phoenix Butterfly to borrow the Samadhi True Fire of the three layers of fire to remedy it, and go to the Fire Disgust Country to seek the method of earth fire. What I am afraid of is that when the Queen Mother of Kunlun Shanxi held a peach banquet, if there was no strongest fire in the world at the banquet, he would be ridiculed by the gods and immortals, and finally the fire god would be punished because of this, so that he would lose this great opportunity to become an immortal.
So, Scourge has the intention to do the same. In that case, then Zhu Li, what do you think?" Mu Changfeng stroked his beard and looked at Zhu Li who was stunned on the side with a benevolent expression.
"I, I can't ask for it! Thank you Brother Chu Xun, thank you Master Mu, thank you, thank you!" Zhu Li was overjoyed, and he was so excited that he hurriedly bowed to everyone one by one.
"Okay! Then let's go! Fellow Daoists, I'll leave first!" said to Zhu Li, and then said to everyone.
"Brother Chu Xun, I can't bear you!" but ......" Zhu Li's eyes were a little hazy, but he quickly burst into laughter. Li Chuxun stroked Zhu Li's head, and when his body was close to Zhu Li, he hugged his arms tightly, as if telling his reluctance.
"Okay! Brother Chu Xun promised you, if I go up Kunlun Mountain, I will definitely go to see you!" Li Chuxun also hugged Zhu Li and patted him on the back shoulder, and a picture of inseparability became moving in the eyes of everyone.
Under everyone's send-off, Scourge took Zhu Li to the immortal mountain in the Kunlun Mountains that was covered by clouds and mist, and with the lost steps taught by Li Chuxun, they disappeared from everyone's sight in a blink of an eye, and Fenghou was also a little daunted, cultivating to become an immortal, which was something he had never thought of.
Everyone looked at the remaining two grilled fish, and couldn't help but push each other, and at this time, the crane swept past and actually threw down a black baggage. Li Chuxun couldn't understand what the hell this Lei Gong was doing, but when he opened the baggage, he realized that Lei Gong actually threw down a burden of wild fruits for himself.
Although Li Chuxun didn't quite understand why Lei Gong appeared repeatedly, he at least knew that Lei Gong was no longer the evil crane who wanted to kill him, so he picked up a wild fruit and threw it into his mouth.
"It's so sweet!" As soon as Li Chuxun's words came out, a bag of wild fruits was snatched up by everyone, and even he didn't expect that his always respected master would rob everyone of the wild fruits regardless of his identity, it seems that everyone is also hungry, Li Chuxun couldn't help but shake his head, turned around and walked towards the grilled fish that he usually dropped first.
Not long after he got back on the road, Li Chuxun gradually fell from the first to the last, and Mu Changfeng, who looked full of thoughts, had to temporarily leave the fox and turn around and walk towards Li Chuxun.
"Li Chuxun?" Unconsciously, Master Mu Changfeng had already come to Li Chuxun's side, and when he looked back, Mu Changfeng was stroking his beard and looking at himself.
"Master!" Li Chuxun shouted, but soon fell into his own worries again, "The task assigned to me by Uncle Shi is only ten days, and I must go and complete it." However, the master is not in Heming Mountain, and I am not in Heming Mountain, so wouldn't the many Taoists and disciples on Heming Mountain be able to practice the Beidou Tiangang Array, if that's the case......"
"Apprentice, my good apprentice! Why didn't the teacher think of this, if this is the case, then I must rush back to Heming Mountain! Otherwise, if I am really succeeded by that Xuansong, then the entire Heming Mountain will be finished!" As he spoke, Mu Changfeng's tone became eager, and he was even a little uneasy.
"Back to Heming Mountain?" Hearing that Mu Changfeng was going back to Heming Mountain, Hu Meier hurriedly slipped over, and Chang Xian and Fenghou also stopped.
"Not bad! Not only to go back, but also to go back immediately!" Mu Changfeng's deep eyes seemed to see the potential threat of Heming Mountain devouring his nerves step by step.
"I'll go back with you!" Fox Mei'er knew that she couldn't defeat Mu Changfeng's decision, so she grabbed Mu Changfeng's arm tightly with both hands, a bit like a coquettish feeling.
In fact, what Mu Changfeng is worried about is this, if Fox Mei'er uses the body of a fox demon to go to Heming Mountain, then it will not be out of order. Not to mention expelling from the division, even Hu Meier's surname may not be guaranteed. So, after careful consideration, he decided to let Hu Mei'er accompany Li Chuxun to Xuanyuan Hill.
"Go with your apprentice to find Gongsun Jiyun? Am I only worthy of traveling with your apprentice? I, Fox Mei'er, will never go with any man except you!"
Seeing that Hu Mei'er was a little unreasonable, Mu Changfeng's eyes widened, and his tone became serious: "You are simply unreasonable! You can go wherever you want, in short, don't go up to Heming Mountain! When I finish my work, I will personally go up to Kunlun Mountain to ask the Taoist spirit boy for the guilt, I hope that when the time comes, I can tolerate me and live in seclusion in the mountains and forests with you, and no longer ask about the world!"
Hearing Mu Changfeng's last words, Hu Mei'er's original angry appearance immediately returned to its original state, but the joy in her heart had already arisen. For her, having this promise is a hundred times better than cultivating and becoming an immortal, so she no longer asks when she will go down the mountain, but turns around with a tender face.
"Master, then I'll ......" As soon as Li Chuxun spoke, he was interrupted by Mu Changfeng, "Complete the task as soon as possible, Chu Liying and I will take good care of it for you, don't worry!"
"Then master take care!" Seeing that Mu Changfeng was about to leave, Li Chuxun hurriedly said. And Li Chuxun's words seemed to remind Hu Mei'er, so the moment Mu Changfeng turned around, she put a red lip on Mu Changfeng's cheek, and then the sky left in different directions.
"Master......" Looking at the distant back, Li Chuxun muttered to himself, he was originally hovering between the relationship between master and apprentice and the importance of Heming Mountain, but once he became clear, the master disappeared from his side in a moment, and the sense of loss occupied his heart again.
"Brother Chu Xun, let's go!" Chang Xian still called Li Chuxun sensibly, while Fenghou had already picked up Li Chuxun's burden and carried it on his back.
