Seeing this, the two hurriedly turned over and bowed down, and said in unison, "Disciple to meet Master." ”

Zhongli asked, "Get up, why did you two have a dispute?"

Mu Long glanced at Qin Mo and stammered, "No...... There's no argument, I'm playing with my sister. Master...... Disciple...... The disciple hasn't seen your old man for ten years, but your demeanor is still the same, and you haven't changed in the slightest...... Not only has it not changed in the slightest, but it has also added to the spirit and grace. "Mu Long went up the mountain when he was three years old, and the master cared for him, eating at the same table and sleeping at the same bed, even if he was a child. After that, since the age of six to go up the cliff to practice, suddenly has not met with the master for ten years, today suddenly met, Mu Long in his heart mixed feelings, between the words of the true feelings, for a while can not help himself, grabbed the master in front of the master, knelt down again, as when he was a child, hugged the master's thigh, whimpered and cried.

Zhong Lixun stroked the back of his head and said with a smile: "You little ghost, why are you still as sweet and slippery as ten years ago, I told your senior sister several times, and you have changed this frivolous and nonsense temperament, it seems that she has not disciplined you well." ”

Mu Long whimpered: "It's none of my senior sister's business, it's the disciple who is stubborn, disobedient to my senior sister's discipline, and has failed your teachings." ”

Zhong Lixun sighed: "In this way, the country is easy to change, the nature is difficult to change, the fate has been determined, and the fetters cannot come." ”

Mu Long cried for a while, calmed down a little, wiped away his tears, and said, "Master, didn't your old man say that he would only go up the cliff tomorrow? Why did you come today?"

Zhong Li asked: "As a teacher, I was going to go up to the cliff half a year ago to test your Taoist swordsmanship, but I didn't expect a sudden change and a delay in time. Today's things have settled a little, for the teacher to observe your cultivation for the realm, found that it is weaker than half a year ago, one is puzzled, and the other is more afraid that you practice the wrong method, go mad, so come up to see what is going on. ”

Mu Long was stunned when he heard this, and said, "Master, you ...... You've never come up to see a disciple, so how can you detect your disciple's cultivation progression?"

Qin Mo said: "Mulong, you don't know, Master used a drop of your blood to refine the purple jade crystal, put it at the head of the bed, and check your soul power every day to distinguish your gains and losses." ”

"Ahh Mu Long snorted softly, couldn't help but shed tears again, and said: "It turns out that the master remembers me every day, but I thought that the master was ruthless and had already ignored me, so I was left to fend for myself." ”

Zhong Lixun smiled: "What's more, you even complained about the master, wanted to pack up the baggage, and left, never to return to Kunlun." ”

Mu Long's face turned red when he heard this, and he said sneeringly: "Master, it turns out that ...... You know that, too. ”

Zhong Lixun sighed lightly and said, "Mu Long, don't blame the master for being ruthless. With your qualifications and understanding, you are really a genius, and if you are good at carving, you will inevitably become a great road and rank in the immortal class. However, the path of enlightenment and cultivation is long and long-term, and the most important thing is to be able to endure loneliness and loneliness. Imagine that the life span of mortals is only a hundred years, if you fall into the world, be neighbors and friends with them, and you gradually get the way of immortality, but watch your relatives and friends grow old, sick and die, hundreds of years later, you will be the only one left in the world. That's why Master gritted his teeth and grounded you on the Yingxue Cliff, and didn't see each other for ten years, just to make your heart stop like water, look down on the vicissitudes of life, get only one self from outside the body and heart, and turn a blind eye to the outside of the body, and hide all things in your heart, and get a glimpse of the wonderful truth of all things in the universe, which is one of them. The second is because you were just a child, you had no dust in your heart, no thoughts without dust, less seven feelings, practicing immortal arts, Taoism, and concentration, not to mention ten times better than ordinary people? These were originally planned by the teacher for you, but I don't know what happened in them? Why have your cultivation not advanced but retreated in the past six months?"

After listening to what the master said, Mu Long knew that the master was very hard for himself, and his heart was full of gratitude and regret...... Disciple is really ashamed of your old man, please punish me, punish me. ”

Zhong Li asked: "Don't cry, don't cry, the seven emotions are the most hurtful, you have experienced loneliness and hardship in the past ten years, Fang Xiu has this little bit of pure heart and few desires, don't be completely lost." ”

Although Zhong Li said this, his eyes couldn't help but turn red, and he looked sideways at him, and only after a moment did he turn his head, help Mu Long up, and said, "Get up, tell Master, what has happened in the past six months?"

Mu Long wiped away his tears when he heard this, looked at the master, and stopped talking several times. Seeing this, Qin Mo said: "Back to Master, in fact, Mu Long was greedy for fun, and used his aura to plant these Jiana trees. ”

"I see. Zhong Lixun looked at the jade forest in front of him and said, "I said that the Jiana tree that came to the snow cliff at a time turned out to be planted by you, a little ghost. Not bad, the branches and leaves are luxuriant, the flowers are clustered, especially the fragrance, which is long and long, which shows that your heart is ethereal and pure, and the meaning is empty. Zhong Lixun said with his head bowed repeatedly, his eyes full of appreciation.

Seeing this, Qin Mo hurriedly said: "Master is right, the spirit body of the dragon is pure, and the cultivation is unremitting, and he has seen the shape of the elephant. As a senior sister, the apprentice is ashamed of herself on the one hand, but proud on the other hand, since you have also spoken out in praise, Master, you must be a lot of magnanimity, and you have forgiven Mu Long. As he spoke, he turned around and glanced at Mu Long, "Mu Long, why don't you hurry up and thank Master?"

When Mu Long heard this, he knew that his senior sister had the heart to excuse herself, so he hurriedly turned over and bowed again, but before his knees touched the ground, Zhong Lixun had already supported him, and said: "Mu Long, you have suffered a lot in the past ten years, the master is too strict with you, and you often blame yourself in your heart, now although you have made mistakes, the master can't bear to blame you, this matter is ......" Zhong Li's inquiry came here, and suddenly his heart moved, and then he turned around to look at the woodland, and after a while, he turned around, his expression changed greatly, and he said in a deep voice: "Mu Long, are you planting these Jiana trees really just for fun?"

Hearing this, Mu Long was sincerely frightened, lowered his head to avoid Zhong Lixun's fierce gaze, and muttered, "This is ...... In vain...... ...... in vain"

Seeing that Master suddenly became angry, Qin Mo was secretly frightened and asked, "Master, what's wrong with these Jiana trees?"

Zhong Li asked: "This piece of Jiana woodland is scattered, secretly in line with the changes of the five elements of yin and yang, there are thousands of ingenuity in it, life hides death, and death contains life, it is an extremely powerful formation. The Jiana tree is already impressive, coupled with such a profound formation, it can be described as a step-by-step killing machine, it is for me, if I strayed into it, I am afraid that it will be difficult to retreat. As he spoke, he looked sideways at Mu Long, with a cold light in his eyes like electricity, and asked in a cold voice: "Mu Long, what do you mean by secretly laying such a dangerous formation outside the Xiangxue Cave?
