One day and one night, two days and two nights...... For three whole days, the people sent out did not have any news of the spirit stones.

In the three-story pavilion of Jiuzhu Peak, except for Chu Qiu, all the eight disciples of Lingshizi have arrived, and they have not gone anywhere for three days, and they have been waiting for news in the three-story pavilion.

Time passed little by little, and the hope of Lingshizi's survival became slimmer and slimmer. Gradually, some people began to have other thoughts.

If the spirit stone is gone, the position of the first seat of Jiuzhu Peak will be vacant, and someone will inevitably replace it immediately. Originally, it stands to reason that the disciple of the first seat is the most likely to become the next first seat - usually the first seat will appoint one of his disciples as his heir before leaving office. The premise is that this disciple has already cultivated to the Jindan stage.

In the past, with the improvement of cultivation, this was not a difficult task. Now there was an accident, the spirit stone went too early, and none of the disciples under the seat cultivated to the Jindan stage.

Needless to say, the four disciples who had just started the spirit stone were Li Hong. The top five disciples Chu Qiu are not counted, and the third disciple Chu Lixiu is the highest. This person has been in seclusion for a long time and has cultivated everything, and Li Hong has been in the door for two years, and he has actually seen him no more than one palm. He is already in the middle stage of refining his heart, and he is only two steps away from the Jindan stage. But because he doesn't show up often, he is not popular at all. And the most respected senior brother Chu Ming's cultivation is not as good as Chu Li, only in the early stage of heart refining, just like the fifth senior brother Chu Gang.

Whether it is in the middle or early stage of heart refining, it is far from qualified. There is only one circumstance in which the next first seat may be incompetent, and that is when the outgoing first seat has been designated.

But Lingshizi didn't designate anyone at all. In this case, the chances of producing the next first seat among the current disciples of the first seat are very slim, not that there has never been one, but that this situation is very rare.

There is also a possibility, that is, the head of the family designates an outstanding person to parachute down to serve as the head of Jiuzhu Peak. Such people are generally unpopular, and it takes a long time to subdue people's hearts, and the gains outweigh the losses.

Finally, there is another situation, that is, one of the Lingshizi's native brothers, such as Lingpanzi and Lingjizi, will be promoted to the first seat, but in this way, their own disciples will have the problem of belonging - the first disciple is the first disciple who chooses the person with the best qualifications when it is the turn of the first vein to open the mountain gate every five years. The apprentices of Ling Panzi and others are inevitably mixed, and they are not worthy of being the next first candidate.

As a result of these circumstances, the people of Jiuzhu Feng are now panicking, and everyone is secretly speculating in their hearts about the next person to be the first seat. It seems that anyone is possible, and it seems that no one is possible.

In the three-story pavilion quiet room, the eight first apprentices sat opposite each other, and there was a gloomy mist.

Fourth Senior Brother Chu Shi suddenly spoke, "Should we call Second Senior Brother back?"

As soon as these words came out, everyone paid attention to him, especially Li Hong Chuxiong, who felt that these words were very harsh.

Chu Shi wiped away his tears and sighed: "The second senior brother was sent down the mountain by the master for some reason, and now the master is seeing ...... It's time for him to come back...... Master and apprentice, I have to go to the spirit to worship once......"

Chu Ming is a loyal person, he didn't know about Chu Qiu's framing of Li Hong and Chu Xiong at the beginning, and he always felt that his master's attitude towards Chu Qiu was very inexplicable. Hearing this, he nodded and stood up and said, "I'll go and tell my uncle and let them pass on Chu Qiu's return." ”

Li Hong's heart jumped, Huo Ran stood up and said: "Senior brother, slow down! Now the master may not be gone, it is better to wait for the exact news to arrive before making a decision." ”

As soon as these words came out, Chu Xuan and Chu Liang immediately looked at him.

Li Hong was not afraid, and quietly met the eyes of the two.

Chu Ming hesitated, "That's what the sixth said." Let's wait, we can't just assume that Master ......has gone without the slightest bit of definite news," he said, his eyes reddening.

Chu Liang spoke: "I think what the fourth senior brother said is right, it's always good to be prepared, is it possible not to let the second senior brother send the master on the last journey......?

Chu Xiong couldn't help but shout when he heard this: "Old Jiu is talking nonsense! Second Senior Brother, that kind of person doesn't care what he does!"

Chu Liang was furious, and his mouth was about to be ridiculed. Chu Li said: "Junior disciples, don't be impatient. If you're really tired, go and meditate for a while, and don't talk about it. There was a faint demeanor in the speech.

Chu Shi glanced at him, revealing a hint of mockery.

Li Hong didn't want to say anything anymore. He looked at Chu Xuan. Chu Xuan sat motionless, expressionless as an old monk.

This person is indeed a descendant of the Zhao family, with a family background, and he is becoming more and more urban. There is also the fourth senior brother Chu Shi's proposal just now is quite interesting, he has always not talked much, why did he suddenly jump out today, could it be that he was already friendly with Chu Qiu, who was driven down the mountain? Li Hong glanced at him.

was thinking about each other, Li Hong's heart moved, Chu Li and the others also felt it, and everyone hugged the window with a cheer.

In the sky, a large group of people and horses drove the boat straight to Jiuzhu Peak.

Someone in the distance was shouting: "The spirit stone is fine! The disciples of Jiuzhu Feng have returned to their original places!"

Chu Ming Chu Gang let out a long breath and increased his forehead with his hand, so excited that he couldn't speak. Chu Shi and Chu Li glanced at each other like lightning, and sparks almost burst out when their eyes met, but in the blink of an eye, both of them showed happy expressions.

Li Hong saw it in his eyes and sighed secretly, but found that there was no sadness or joy in his heart until this moment.

For this master, I don't know when I started to have a diaphragm. The scene of the experimental disciple's corpse being turned into ashes by spirit stones is deep in my heart. If he couldn't pass those levels at the beginning, maybe the ending would be the same as them, right? Thinking of this, Li Hong couldn't let go of Lingshizi.

After ten days, Lingshizi finally summoned his apprentice.

He spent ten days healing. If the spiritual power is exhausted, he is stuck in the middle of the mountain and rocks and cannot move, if he is not found and rescued, I am afraid that he will become a fossilized corpse between the mountains and rocks. Thousands of years later, if someone discovers it, it will definitely be mistaken for the incarnation of mountain spirits and ghosts! Lingshizi is amused when he thinks of this, and he is afraid when he is funny. He told his disciples about this, and told them to take caution when they used the spirit runes.

Li Hong listened and listened, but his mind wandered, and he thought of another terrible question. The Demon Sect Demon Sect is so powerful!

Earlier, I thought that a Nine Leaves the Sect will be a master in large numbers, not to mention the entire Immortal Sect, those who are young are not worried. But now there are living examples in front of him, and even the spirit stone is almost folded under their hands!

Cold sweat overflowed from his forehead, and Li Hong found that he had underestimated the enemy, and his strength must be worked hard to improve his strength! Whether it is for the great revenge of Tiandanzi's predecessors or for the sake of saving his own life, he must work hard to improve his strength.

Strength determines life and death, honor and disgrace, and everything!

Li Hong clenched his fists unconsciously.

At this moment, Chu Xiong pushed him. I only heard Lingshizi ask curiously: "Sixth, what are you thinking?" My old man is talking happily, why are you distracted again?!"

Li Hong raised his head and met the amber eyes of the spirit stone. He wasn't angry, and there was a hint of concern in his eyes, as if he cared about his thoughts.

Li Hong calmed down and said indifferently: "If the master has no other instructions, the disciple wants to cultivate." ”

As soon as these words came out, Chu Li and the others glared angrily, and even Chu Ming cast a reproachful look.

Ling Shizi understood Li Hong's thoughts, and he smiled kindly: "It seems that the sixth child was stimulated by my injury. It's okay, it's okay, isn't Master fine? He looked around at everyone: "You all have to work hard to cultivate, and you must remember the lesson of the teacher this time!"

After asking a few words of homework, Lingshizi told the disciples to stand down. Li Hong was about to leave, but he heard Lingshizi raise his voice and say, "Sixth, you stay." ”

Leaving him alone again! Li Hong turned around helplessly.

Lingshizi smiled, and his face did look much better. He twisted his beard and suddenly asked, "Sixth, how long have you been in the Nine Departure Gate?"

Li Hong was stunned, he didn't expect him to ask this question.

It has been two years since he left the door. Although there have been some turmoil in the past two years, the life has been very fulfilling, and I have almost forgotten the past. It's just that can you really forget?

The eldest brother's painful and helpless face when he was pulled away, his mother died tragically under the golden soldier's knife, Wanyi worked in the farmland in rags and barefoot, sweating like rain and working hard with his back to the loess, the golden soldiers burned the mountain, and the villagers were burned alive...... Scenes flickered past Li Hong's eyes.

I thought I had forgotten about it a long time ago!

A gentle and beautiful face came to mind, "Hong'er, I'm lonely......"

Lingshizi looked at Li Hong kindly: "People in the world always think that immortals are ruthless and loveless, but in fact, they are not. If you have love in your heart, you will have the sword of justice in your hand. Let's go down the mountain. It's been two years, and it's time for you to go down the mountain to see your loved ones. ”
