The entrance of the Patriotic Mansion was tall, and two rows of eight guards in silver armor stood like javelins under the porch.

Xiao Ziyang walked up the steps to the porch. The two guards in the front row crossed their spears and shouted in a low voice, "Defend the Mansion, Hugh has to break in." ”

A family member walked out of the gatehouse and asked Xiao Ziyang, "Who are you?" The ding's voice was not stern.

Xiao Ziyang arched his hand and said: "I am tired of informing me, Xiao Ziyang is here, and I have come to ask to see Murong Lingdaoyou." ”

When that family Ding heard Xiao Ziyang say the three words Murong Ling, his eyebrows were raised, and he was about to attack. But when he heard the words Daoyou behind, his expression changed. His attitude immediately changed to respect, and he saluted and said, "This gentleman, please wait a moment, and the little one will go to report immediately." After saying that, he turned around and walked quickly towards the house.

As soon as the tea was done, three people in the house hurriedly came out. The first person, about forty years old, wore a red second-grade official uniform, and was handsome with three points of majesty. followed by the two, it was Murong Ling and Murong Zixuan, brother and sister.

When the guards under the porch saw the middle-aged man in official uniform, they all raised the spears in their hands to the ground, bent down and saluted, and said in unison: "I've seen the world!"

Seeing this, Xiao Ziyang couldn't guess the identity of this person, so he stepped forward and saluted: "Xiao Ziyang greets Lord Murong." ”

This person is Murong Ling's father, Murong Wenyuan, the son of the Duke of Weiguo.

Murong Wenyuan took two steps forward, grabbed Xiao Ziyang's arm, and said with a smile: "I have been a classmate with Brother Shouqing for several years, and I admire Brother Shouqing's profound knowledge very much, and I also sighed after hearing that the Xiao family had an accident. After I got out of the cage, I was overjoyed when I heard that it was the old man who saved my Murong family. But I didn't expect Ziyang, you didn't say goodbye......"

Speaking of this, Murong Wenyuan pointed at Xiao Ziyang and said, "Xiao Xian's nephew really deserves to be punished, and you will be drunk tonight." ”

Xiao Ziyang replied respectfully: "Thank you Lord Murong for your concern, I got revenge that day, and captured the thief Jiang He, and eagerly used his head to pay tribute to my parents, and I returned to Ganzhou overnight in a hurry, I am really ashamed." ”

Murong Wenyuan said unhappily: "What Lord Murong, I talked about poetry and politics with your father back then. They are often referred to as brothers. If you don't dislike it, just call me Uncle Murong. ”

Hearing this, Xiao Ziyang hurriedly shouted, "Uncle Murong." ”

Murong Wenyuan listened to Ha Lu's laughter, and turned to introduce Xiao Ziyang: "I heard Ling'er say that Ziyang, you are also a cultivator. The dog Murong Zixuan also worshiped and cultivated under the Daluo Sect. You will be closer in the future. ”

Xiao Ziyang hurriedly turned to Murong Zixuan and said, "I've seen Senior Murong!"

Murong Zixuan hurriedly grabbed Xiao Ziyang's arm and said, "What senior, since you call your father uncle, I am naturally your brother." How about you call me Brother Murong?"

Xiao Ziyang hurriedly shouted again: "Brother Murong." ”

When the father and son of the Murong family heard this, they laughed in unison.

At this time, Murong Ling also stepped forward and called sweetly, "Brother Xiao." ”

Xiao Ziyang and Murong Ling, father and son, entered the Chu Mansion. I went to meet Old Master Chu first.

Old Master Chu was also very happy to see Xiao Ziyang. rewarded Xiao Ziyang with 100 purple gold treasures, and rewarded him with two hundred-year-old crested crested black that made him work hard that day.

That night, Murong Wenyuan hosted a banquet to entertain Xiao Ziyang.

The banquet of the Chu Wangfu is not the same as the banquet of the Wen family on that day. The dishes are exquisite and luxurious.

The wine is a Jincheng old cellar that has been cellared for 30 years, and enjoys the reputation of the first fine wine in Xiliang. This wine is golden in color, mellow in the mouth, and has a long aftertaste.

The singers who cheered up during the banquet were all singing and dancing beauties cultivated in the music room of the Weiguo Mansion, with beautiful appearances, superb dancing skills, and even more melodious singing.

The banquet was very enjoyable.

That night, after the banquet was dispersed, Xiao Ziyang was arranged to live in a separate courtyard.

Early the next morning, Xiao Ziyang had breakfast and planned to go to Murong Zixuan to meet him.

Xiao Ziyang has always been bitter without a master, but now that he has an opportunity, he naturally has to take advantage of it. As soon as he walked out of the door, he ran into Murong Ling, who came to look for him.

"Brother Xiao, where are you going?"

"Miss Murong, I was about to visit Brother Murong and ask for advice on some difficult problems in my cultivation. ”

"What Murong girl, call me Ling'er. Murong Ling said angrily when he heard this.

"Ling'er, do you have anything to do with me?" Xiao Ziyang said with a smile.

"Can't I come to see you if I don't have anything to do? I'm just here to see if you're used to it? You're going to find my brother, and I'm going to go too, let's go together." ”

"It's a beautiful place and there are people to serve you, so how can you not get used to it. Okay, let's go together. The two walked side by side towards Murong Zixuan's courtyard.

Murong Ling suddenly remembered something, and said, "By the way, my eldest brother has promised me to ask his senior brother to intercede and ask the Deacon Hall to agree to admit you as an outer disciple." I just don't know what your spiritual root qualifications are. If it's too bad, I'm afraid it won't work!"

Xiao Ziyang was surprised and delighted when he heard this, and hurriedly said: "I am a four-grade fire earth spirit root, I don't know if I can meet the requirements" After speaking, he was busy secretly using the secret method to convert the spirit root.

I couldn't help but secretly rejoice in my heart. In order to practice the spells in the "Five Elements Spell General Record", he had thoroughly studied the secret method of converting the mana of the spiritual root in "Purple Jade Smoke" on the way.

When Murong Ling heard this, he couldn't help but envy: "Brother Xiao, your spiritual root qualifications are good! Alas, it's not like me, it's Lei Linggen." Don't think about building a foundation in this life. ”

When Xiao Ziyang heard this, he comforted: "Although Lei Linggen is difficult to build a foundation, it is not completely impossible. Besides, the thunder spell is powerful, as long as you succeed in building the foundation, you will immediately become a master. What kind of Lei Ling Root are you?"

Murong Ling said gloomily: "Sanpin, but what's the use." It has been three hundred years since the Xiliang Kingdom cultivated the immortal realm, and no Lei Linggen monk has succeeded in building a foundation. If it weren't for the fact that our Murong family ancestors had an old relationship with a real person, I'm afraid I wouldn't even have the qualifications to be accepted as a disciple by the Da Luo Sect. ”

"Ling'er, don't be discouraged, your spiritual root is of such high quality, as long as you are willing to work hard, maybe you will be the first thunder cultivator to successfully build a foundation in three hundred years. ”

When Murong Ling heard this, he smiled sweetly: "Xie Lu, Xie Xiao, big brother Jiyan." Well, with your spiritual root qualifications on par with my brother, and with the addition of intercession with a real person, it is not impossible to be accepted as an inner disciple!"

After Xiao Ziyang heard this, he was stunned, as far as Xiao Ziyang knew, the four-grade earth spirit root could only be regarded as a middle and upper quality. It's not very good.

I heard that there are tens of thousands of carefully selected disciples in the six major immortal sects, among which there are more excellent disciples than the four grade earth spiritual roots, if not thousand, but also eight hundred.

If the quality of Murong Zixuan's spiritual root was really as Murong Ling said, how could he be favored by Monk Jindan and accepted as a disciple?
