Chapter 3 Wandering with thorns
"Who are you?"
Chu Liuxian said this as a matter of course, and the smiles on the faces of the tall, short, fat and thin people froze suddenly.
"I ...... We ......"
The tall and thin man instinctively wanted to introduce himself, but he was pulled by the short and fat man, and he didn't lose his face to the bottom.
Chu Liuxian's expression was flat, and his heart was stunned.
He has always had a keen perception, although this tall, short, fat and thin person is full of smiles, as if he is greeting warmly, but he clearly feels a strong fear and nervousness from their looks and tones.
If they are really old friends of Childe, can they say hello and be afraid of being nervous?
Jokes.
Chu Liuxian has no pressure to deal with it, even if he takes 10,000 steps back, it doesn't matter if he feels wrong, it is the true nature of the child.
Seeing the embarrassment of the tall, short, fat and thin duo, Wang Ku lowered his head, his shoulders twitched incessantly, and Lin Qingcheng covered her mouth with her small hands, and her eyes were clearly full of smiles.
It's still Gu Feng to be kind and kind, don't look over, I can't bear to look at them.
The tall, short, fat and thin people are obviously not very popular in normal times, so that no one came to warm up the scene and ease up, but let them be embarrassed.
Only Chu Liuxian seemed to be fine, so he naturally nodded at the two of them, and then strode forward without looking back.
This time, he surpassed Gu Fenghan and the others and went first.
Gu Fenghan and the others were afraid that they would stay with the tall, short, fat and thin two of them again, and they couldn't hold back their laughter, so they hurriedly followed.
Originally, it was the three brothers of Gu Feng and Han who led the way, but they invisibly became Chu Liuxian taking the lead, and several of them followed suit.
The four of them walked away, and the tall, short, fat and thin two breathed a sigh of relief and looked at each other with a wry smile.
"He's still the same, he hasn't changed at all, he's still the high-ranking son who stays in the immortals!"
The tall and thin one had a gloomy face, and he wanted to stomp his own feet, and he had nothing to do to humiliate himself.
Humpty Dumpty was a little better than him, shook his head and said, "I should have known him for more than ten years, when did he remember our names, when did he put us in his eyes?"
"Do you remember when you were a child, what did the older generation of our Chen Lin family say about him?"
The tall thin man shook his head, he has always used his brains less, and he said that he was ten years ago, how can he remember.
Humpty Dumpty didn't expect him to answer, and said to himself: "The surname is arrogant when he leaves the world, and he sees no one in his eyes!"
"Jiang is really old and spicy, and it is three points to the bone. β
"We didn't stand at the same height as him, and it was difficult for the proud son to look at us. β
The tall thin man was both depressed and unconvinced, and pouted: "Wait and see, how do you say that, it's too late, it's not inevitable." β
"When he was a child, he left the immortal son to cover the young people of the family, and we were breathless, I don't believe it, now everyone has entered the fairy gate, everything starts from the beginning, can't let him remember us?!"
Humpty Dumpty nodded approvingly.
Neither of them realized how big the shadow left in their hearts was, obviously talking behind their backs, and all they wanted was for the other party to remember them.
In the deepest part of their hearts, they don't even have the ambition to be on an equal footing with each other, how sad.
The tall, short, fat and thin people didn't feel pathetic, the two of them didn't say anything, and they didn't disperse, they just stood there and watched Chu Liuxian and his party drift away, as if they were waiting for something.
Ahead, Chu Liuxian and the others walked forward dozens of steps, and a loud shout came from behind them.
"Stay!"
"It's Chu Liuxian in front?!"
As soon as these words came out, Gu Fenghan's face sank, like frost.
With the identity of Chu Liuxian, there are only a few elders in the sect who can be called by name and surname, but when the elders are called, they must also call by name but not surname, in order to show intimacy.
What kind of character is this behind that he dares to call it that?
Gu Fenghan, Wang Ku, and Lin Qingcheng stopped and looked back at the past with angry faces.
Dozens of feet behind him, a young man with a dark face and a green robe strode after him, shouting and screaming as he chased.
"Hongtong, what are you yelling about?"
"And there are no rules. β
Gu Feng shouted loudly in a cold voice.
He recognized this Hongtong.
This person is a descendant of casual cultivation, and three years ago he was selected for the entry school because of his qualifications. Just like an ordinary newly recruited disciple, he was just an outer disciple at the beginning, and he worked for three years as a miscellaneous soldier before he was transferred to the inner door.
In the past three years, the practice of the outer door and the miscellaneous servants are in order to hone the disciples' hearts and surnames, and at the same time to lay a solid foundation.
This level is extremely important for beginner immortal cultivators who don't have enough foundation, after all, most of them haven't been able to lay a solid foundation and advance bravely early, and they will only end up breaking the immortal path.
After that, according to the rules, he also had to cultivate in the inner gate for three years, and his own elders observed his enlightenment surname and character, and finally decided whether to include him in the seven veins, or whether the elders would include him as a disciple.
Hong Tong was unwilling to be patient, and not long ago he caught up with the son of the Chen Lin family, so he worshiped a certain elder of the Chen Lin family and directly became a disciple.
It was precisely because of this that Gu Fenghan had some impressions of him.
Gu Fenghan's fierce drink was ignored by Hong Tong, he approached quickly, and he was still shouting in his mouth: "Chu Liuxian, why did you decide that you were a disciple of the Lord of the Seven Veins Mountain as soon as you entered, but we have to come from the outer gate, start from the miscellaneous servants, and work hard step by step without a chance?"
As soon as these words came out, Wang Ku was still at a loss, Lin Qingcheng frowned slightly, and Gu Fenghan's face suddenly became gloomy.
"I'm waiting for hard cultivation, and no one cares, and as soon as you come, you will open the mountain gate to show your grandeur?"
"Why?!"
When the last three words were shouted out with emotion, he passed by Gu Fenghan and the others, and chased after Chu Liuxian, who had just paused when he just shouted, and never stopped after that.
Gu Fenghan originally wanted to intercept him, but at the moment of his shot, he suddenly understood the purpose of Hong Tong's shouting and endured it vigorously.
Strictly speaking, Hong Tong has been full of resentment in the outer gate for three years, and he doesn't understand the purpose of the sect's rules at all.
But that's what he shouted, not so much for himself, but for those on the periphery of the square, outside the mountain gate.
The prince arrived, the immortals entered the sect, the Taoist sect opened the mountain gate to welcome it, and the Jiuyao ancient ship was huge, which of these was not eye-catching?
Hong Tong's words were exactly what he said to them. The pride of the sky is always a minority, and the vast majority of people have to go up layer by layer, whether they are still struggling at the bottom or already at the top, there will always be a period of time in the past that will be touched by Hongtong's words.
That's what he wants.
Not everyone can see themselves clearly, see others clearly, understand all kinds of internal and external gains and losses, and will not understand how hard people work when there is no one in the dark.
Most of them have grievances.
This is what Hongtong wants.
ββBorrow the love of the group to protect yourself!
In this way, Gu Fenghan couldn't stop it forcibly.
But he didn't take it too seriously, and even sneered in his heart, waiting to see the joke.
"Senior Brother Chu was born in the Shenxiao Chu clan, he has been carefully cultivated by the family since he was a child, and he is also an immortal with extraordinary qualifications, according to Master Chu, he has already reached the peak of the true spirit. β
"If it weren't for the sake of entering the Dao Sect and getting the authentic inheritance of the Immortal Sect, I am afraid that I would have entered the realm of seclusion long ago. β
"Such a character, how can you provoke Hongtong, who has just entered the True Spirit Realm and has not even been able to condense the True Spirit?
Gu Fenghan was waiting to see the joke and didn't worry at all, the tall, short, fat and thin people who were a little farther away widened their eyes, and the Daoist monks who were farther away didn't know what to think, and they were also paying attention.
No one doubted that Chu Liuxian would suffer any loss, but more curious about the immortal who was so ceremoniously courteous to the Taoist Sect.
This is what everyone expects and pays attention to.
After Hong Tong shouted such words, Chu Liuxian knew what he was going to face.
"It's also the first time to enter the realm of true spirits. β
Chu Liuxian walked forward unhurriedly, and all kinds of thoughts flashed in his heart. He has the idea of suppressing the yang god, and no one can catch his breath to distinguish his cultivation, Hongtong does not have this treatment, and he will be able to watch the fire at the slightest induction.
"You can't do it normally with this Hongtong, if you really want to form a stalemate or fight for a while, then the four-character signboard of Gongzi Liuxian will be smashed clean!"
"Even if you find an excuse to be seriously injured or something, you can't do it. β
"Chu Liuxian, he is an immortal, he is an immortal, just like a dragon in the sky, how can he be entangled with insects on the ground?"
Chu Liuxian took another step forward, the sound of footsteps behind him was approaching, and the faint strong wind was blowing on his back, and his mind was enough to restore the action that Hong Tong reached out to grab.
Behind him, Hongtong's voice came: "Today, let me Hongtong try your catties." β
Chu Liuxian was unconscious, and his mind was still racing: "You can't hide, you can't dodge, any downside will be a catastrophe." β
"So, that's all I can do......"
Chu Liuxian's mind thought everything clearly, and his insight was clear, and from the outsider's point of view, it was just Hongtong chasing after two or three steps, and he could touch Chu Liuxian's back and shoulders with one hand.
In front of him, Chu Liuxian didn't put it in his eyes at all, and was still moving forward at a uniform speed.
Seeing that, Hong Tong's hand was about to put on Chu Liuxian's shoulder, and a sudden change occurred.
"Brush~"
A strange light, neither red, not orange, not blue...... Not in the nine colors, it suddenly rose from Chu Liuxian's waist, and conjured up a tree with jagged branches in the air, and the thorns of the tender branches set off a different flower, slowly blooming.
Hong Tong's outstretched hand seemed to reach into the spiky branches all over his body to pluck the strange flower.
"Wandering Flowers!"
In the distance, the tall, short, fat and thin people exclaimed in unison, and Lin Qingcheng and the two of them in the distance looked dazed, while Gu Fenghan was taken aback, obviously recognizing the origin of this hand.
"Ah~~~"
A scream, ripping his throat, came out of Hongtong's mouth in an instant.
As if he had been struck by thunder, he withdrew his hand like lightning, holding his wrist and looking at Chu Liuxian's back in shock.
Hong Tong's originally normal palm was full of holes, as if it had been punctured by countless spikes, and blood was bubbling from each hole.
In the blink of an eye, his injured palm swelled rapidly, three or five times the size of before.
Judging from the inch-inch-bulging of his clothes, Hong Tong is afraid that it is not only his palms that are swollen, but also his body.
Hong Tong couldn't help but wail, and his voice gradually became thinner like a gossamer, and it was painful at first glance, and he almost rolled on the ground.
In this regard, Chu Liuxian was unconscious, and still moved forward leisurely at the same pace.
With his footsteps, a pendant made of slender branches fell, and the weathering quickly turned yellow, and fell to the ground into powder.
This small pile of inconspicuous powder, which was not even seen by Hong Tong who was close at hand, attracted the attention of the tall, short, fat and thin two people at the first time.
"Sure enough, it's a wandering flower pendant!"
The tall thin man exclaimed in disbelief: "Isn't this the treasure he got three years ago at the foot of Qishan Mountain, beating the sons of the seven great families?!"
"This is the Wandering Flower Branch refined by the Yin God Venerable, and it can protect your life at a critical moment!"
Wandering flowers, for Qishan endemic species, under the arch of the group of branches, a tree put a flower, its tender bushes of thorns, want to pick its flowers, it is difficult to escape the stabbing attack.
At that time, the Yin God Venerable of the major families used the special surname of the wandering flower branch and refined it with the spiritual power of the Yin God Venerable, so that he had the wandering pendant, which could prevent close attacks.
It's a pity that in the end, Gongzi faced the Lethe Curse, and the magic of this pendant was only found by Chu Liuxian after reading the golden book of the Jade Palace.
"This ...... Isn't it his hole cards?"
"How do you use it on Hongtong?"
The tall and thin man couldn't believe it, he treated others with himself, if this treasure was his, he had to stay until life and death.
Next to him, Humpty Dumpty smiled bitterly, "There's only one reason. β
Glancing at each other, the two said in unison: "This is no longer his hole card." β
Coming up with this reason that they thought they had no other possibility, the expressions on the faces of the two became more and more bitter, and they sighed in their hearts: "The gap is getting bigger and bigger." β
When they were feeling sorry for themselves, the words that came from Chu Liuxian's back were loud:
"When an eagle strikes the sky, it will not complain to the hares, nor will it fly with the fowl. β
"The fish leaps over the dragon gate, you must go against the current, be indomitable, and will not complain about the turbulent water and the height of the dragon gate.
"I won't explain to you what you're asking, if you understand, you understand, and if you don't understand, you don't understand. β
"I've given you a chance, there's no next time. β
At that time, inside and outside the mountain gate, there were countless monks, and the sound was in the ears, and I don't know how many people were thoughtful and thoughtful, and how many people agreed with it......
Chu Liuxian's footsteps did not stop, and he gradually drifted away from Gu Fenghan and the others who caught up.
ps: "Rose a wandering flower...... The tender bush thorn ...... "wandering flower is another name for roses, and the word "wandering" is wonderful, and it is written to pick flowers and hesitate to move, so it is borrowed for use.
