She is Jianxiu
Chapter 943
Sunrise and morning glow, the sky is bright and the air is clear.
Under the cloudy sky, a stream of pure spiritual energy surrounds the valley. Looking down from the mountain, one can see a large spiritual field spread out, surrounded by continuous green tiles and white walls.
There is no rice or wheat planted on the spiritual field, but upon closer inspection, there are medicinal herbs full of aura growing in the field. From time to time, there are medicinal farmers walking on the ridge, carefully screening the condition of the medicinal herbs.And the harvest of medicinal materials in these spiritual fields is related to their contributions at the end of the year, so no matter the weather, no one dares to relax.
At the end of the year, deacon disciples from the sect will come to inspect the medicine fields. According to the growth of the elixir and the fertility of the land, four grades will be evaluated, A, B, C, and D. Among them, A is the highest, and D is the lowest. The best ones will receive additional rewards.And whether it is the contribution given according to the evaluation level, or this other reward, it will eventually become the various resources they need for practice.
For outside disciples with no background and no family to rely on, this will be a rare way of cultivation, and it is also the best choice to touch the immortal fate.
As long as you practice diligently and break through to the reunion period within a certain age, you can enter Zhaoyan and become an inner disciple.
A few disciples from the outer sect hurried past the field ridge, and when they caught a glimpse of a figure lying on the ground, they couldn't help showing a bit of envy.
The woman had her hands behind her head and a weed that she found somewhere in her mouth. She looked completely bored, but the deacon disciple who supervised the place was respectful to her, and she didn't even dare to say a serious word. , although everyone felt dissatisfied, they could also guess that the identity of this person was not simple.
Huang Guan naturally knew that this person's identity was extraordinary, if the other party hadn't been punished to come here to look after the medicine field, he might not have even seen a person like Zhao Hui, who is the pride of heaven.
Personally handed down by the head of the sect, a disciple of the Taiyan Jiuxuan lineage.Although she is young, her seniority is extremely high, if she really wants to talk about it, the Immortal Qin in the door has to call her "Little Martial Uncle".
And half a month ago, two black-robed law enforcement disciples from Bufeishan came here and wanted to arrange Zhaohui to be punished in the medicine field under his jurisdiction. Huang Guan only found out that this ancestor seemed to be injured. He was from the same family, so he was ordered to take care of the medicine field.
For this reason, he was even more cautious, for fear of getting into Zhaohui's bad luck, lest he be taught a lesson.
"Blocked."
Huang Guan was taken aback for a moment, but the woman in front of him had already stood up. She was tall, half a head taller than Huang Guan himself, with a well-proportioned and slender body, with a face as bright as the morning glow, but her eyes were extremely There is a sense of oppression.
With long eyebrows drawn into the temples, a pair of phoenix eyes stared slightly below, with a sullen expression on his face, which made Huang Guan tremble in fright.
Standing on the ridge of the field, he didn't know what he was blocking, but he still responded obediently, and fled quickly from Zhaohui's sight in three steps at a time.
When Huang Guan left the place, Zhaohui snorted coldly, stretched out his foot and kicked the nearby bushes, saying: "People are gone, get out quickly."
I only heard "Ouch" coming from the bushes, but a person crawled out of the bushes.
He covered his shoulders, grinned his teeth and said: "This kick almost killed me by your nephew."
Zhaohui squinted his eyes, watching the boy put on a show, but never said a word.
As if he didn't hear the echo, the young man soon put on a playful smile, clasped his hands together in front of his chest and said, "Why is uncle so upset? Who messed with you? Nephew will vent your anger on you."
"You have the face to say it, Chi Shen!" Zhao Hui grabbed the boy's collar and said through gritted teeth, "I knew those people were cowards who couldn't afford it, so what are you doing with them? You promised that the winner of the ring would win everything." Caitou, turn your face away and don’t recognize me, I just taught them a lesson, and I was actually accused of going to Bufei Mountain, what a villain!”
Chi Shen just grinned, but he was already crying in his heart.
Among the people who were "taught", there were disciples from the Eighteenth Cave Heaven, as well as bloodlines from aristocratic families. Zhao Hui didn't know the severity of his actions, and several disciples returned to the master's sect for people to see, and they all offended the elders in the sect. Shocked and angry, he was sued to Bufei Mountain.
After Zhaohui was angry, he pushed Chi Shen's collar forward, let go, and said, "It's really unlucky, it's unlucky for me to meet Baili Yue on duty in the Law Enforcement Hall, unlucky!"
As the head of the sect, she has to be courteous to others wherever she goes, so even if she is accused of going to Bufei Mountain, she doesn't think she will be punished for these trivial matters.Unexpectedly, the disciple who was guarding the Law Enforcement Hall that day happened to be Baili Yue, who came from a poor family, and couldn't get used to those disciples who behaved mischievously and acted recklessly based on their status. It is his condemnation.
And Baili Yue wanted to be punished more severely, but the disciple Zhenying didn't have much authority in his hands, and he had to discuss the punishment with his colleagues, so Zhaohui's punishment was reduced a lot.
Seeing that she was gradually losing her temper, Chi Shen approached her in a low voice and persuaded, "Master, why do you need to be angry about these things?" He winked his eyes and raised his eyebrows, "I got a new good thing, you see Don't you see?"
After all, without waiting for Haiqing to nod, he raised his sleeves and flung them aside.
But he didn't know what came out of his sleeve, and after falling to the ground, a white light appeared, and then the white light dispersed, and what appeared in front of the two of them was exactly the same figure as Zhaohui.
"Here, Sprinkling Beans into Soldiers, isn't it amazing?"
Zhao Hui glanced at it, and said angrily, "It's just a puppet, so it doesn't count as a supernatural power."
"This is not an ordinary puppet!" Chi Shen lowered his voice, "Isn't the master master about to ascend to the ascension? At that time, the Ascension Conference will need manpower, so the senior brother ordered the Department of Artifacts to hurry up and build a batch of gold and stone puppets. I heard that This thing is almost indistinguishable from a real person, even its appearance can be manipulated at will—”
"You dare to take this thing casually," Zhao Hui heard the veins on his forehead twitching violently, he just wanted to slap Chi Shen on the head, but he was afraid of making him even more stupid, "If Immortal Qin finds out, what will happen?" You feel good!"
But Chi Shen waved his hand and said, "Don't worry, what I took is just a defective item, and the Equipment Manufacturing Division won't pursue it, let alone——"
He grinned: "Nursing the medicine field is so boring, now that I have replaced it with a puppet, the uncle will be more at ease?"
Zhaohui glanced at the golden stone puppet suspiciously, but his mind was full of thoughts. She had a free and unrestrained temperament. If she really wanted her to stay here honestly, it would be better to kill her. Now the way to escape is at hand. How could Zhaohui care about Sanqi 21? Anyway, monks like Huang Guan couldn't tell the difference between a puppet and a human. Even if she walked away, who would know?
The combination of the two made up their minds to go down the mountain.
After all, there are law enforcement disciples patrolling everywhere in the sect, and going to the inner sect is tantamount to throwing oneself into a trap, so it's better to take this opportunity to go down the mountain to have some fun, it's also a way to relax.
When Zhaohui was still in her infancy, she was brought back to the door by Cui You, the head of the sect. Her name and surname were also taken by Cui You, which means "when the sun rises, the light shines everywhere." As for who her biological parents were, she did not know. I have never seen it before, but I only know from Cui You that I was born in Yuanxi Town near Zhaoyan, and my parents are ordinary people without celestial karma. She brought back Zhaoyan.
For some reason, even though she has no memory of her homeland, at this moment there is always a sense of longing, forcing her to go to Yuanxi Town.
There are even several large cities under Zhaoyan's jurisdiction, and there are countless towns like Yuanxi.The two climbed over mountains and ridges, passed several streams and rivers, and waited until the sun was setting to the west, and the sky was full of sunset clouds, before they settled down by a clear stream.There is a gurgling sound of water here, and several children in linen clothes are playing and playing. Behind them is a low wall, and the houses in the wall are like houses, and the smoke is floating.
Seeing strangers coming, the children timidly withdrew their smiles. Among them was a bold one who seemed to be the leader of the group, but asked Zhaohui and the others: "Where do you come from, and what are your interests?" matter?"
The child's voice was immature, with a hint of defensiveness.
Yuanxi Town is located in a remote place, even the nearest city is away from here, there are also two day and night tutorials.Therefore, most of the people in the town have a few fields to grow rice and wheat for self-sufficiency, and if there is any surplus, they can go to the city to invite monks to come and cultivate the land, plant a few acres of spiritual rice and sell it in the city.Therefore, although Yuanxi Town is small, it is by no means poor.
It's just that Zhaohui's clothes are obviously not like those of the townspeople, and even the rich and noble people in the city can rarely dress like this.Although the children are innocent in temperament, they can also recognize others from their clothes and appearance. Now when they see Zhaohui and Chi Shen, they know that they must have come from afar.
Zhaohui was taken aback by the question, thought for a while and replied: "I used to be from Yuanxi Town, so I came here specially today to take a look."
As soon as this remark came out, Chi Shen beside him had slightly surprised eyes. Zhao Hui was about the same age as him. It was said that he was brought back to the door by the head immortal when he was young, so he worshiped under the seat of his mentor At that time, the other party was already the head of the sect. As for where it came from, not many people in the sect really knew about it.
She had no reason to lie to these children, not to mention that she herself was quite outspoken. After thinking about it, she knew that the fact that she was born in Yuanxi Town should be true.
Hearing Zhaohui say that he is from the town, the faces of the children showed some doubts.Children of this age are always happy and angry, and after thinking about it boldly, they said to their friends: "Then she is the same as Fifth Master, she came back after learning the fairy art outside."
Hearing this, the little girl with the double buns blinked her eyes and asked naively: "Sister, what kind of fairy art do you know? Can you make the seeds germinate with one breath like Fifth Master?"
The Dekun Palace gathers all kinds of spells, and such a small spell that spawns grass sprouts is not even qualified to be included in the palace collection.Zhaohui smiled slightly, and leaned over to answer the girl, but at this moment, shouts came from behind her, which made the group of children panic and started running towards the town.
At this moment when the sun was setting and the parents were calling their children to go home, Zhaohui straightened up and looked at the woman with her hips on the low wall. The girl who was wearing a double bun before was now throwing herself in her mother's arms. Acting like a baby, but the woman's eyes widened and she asked in surprise, "Where did the two immortal masters come from?"
With an adult's eyesight, I can see that Zhaohui and Zhaohui are extraordinary ordinary people, and when she finds out that the other party is from Yuanxi Town, the woman is even more surprised, and hastily said: "I will take the two of you to see Wu. Lord!"
The fifth master she was talking about was named Li Chan from the town, and because he was only a foundation cultivator, he was already old and hard to hide.
When Li Chan was young, he was quite good at arithmetic, so he worked as an accountant for a rich family in the city. The rich family had a medicinal material business, and on weekdays he had contacts with some servants in the monk's mansion. These servants were respectful in front of the monks, but ordinary In front of the people, it is very arrogant.Li Chan saw more of these, and began to have the idea of cultivating Taoism in his heart.
If you want to say which is the largest sect nearby, I am afraid that there will be no second answer other than Zhaoyan.Li Chan longed for the Taoism of the immortal family, and after making up his mind, he packed his bags and went to the Valley of Asking Immortals to seek immortal fate.Fortunately, he does have spiritual roots, but his aptitude is really mediocre. After decades of cultivation, he can barely build a foundation, and if he wants to become an inner disciple, his hope is slim.
From being ambitious when he was young, to being disheartened after not seeing any progress for many years, Li Chan finally realized that he was indeed not the kind of person who was blessed with luck, so at an octogenarian age, he returned to Yuanxi Town , taking care of the people in the town with his own academic methods, and now he has become the generation of Delong Wangzun in this Yuanxi town.
As soon as he saw the two of them, he suddenly stood up from his seat, and said with a respectful salute: "Young Li Chan, I have met two seniors."
Ask the monks in the Immortal Valley, although they claim to be disciples of Zhaoyan's outer sect, they have not been recognized by the sect in fact, and they are not like formal disciples who can leave the jade talisman and light a longevity lamp in Jiudu Hall Soul Lamp.That's why Li Chan didn't dare to pretend to be Zhaoyan's disciple, and he only showed it to outsiders as a casual cultivator on weekdays.
Because they ran out secretly, Zhao Hui and Chi Shen took off the life talisman to show their identity early. She called Li Chan to get up, but asked eagerly, "How long has the old man been in Yuanxi Town?"
"It's not too long, it's just been 60 years now." Li Chan saw that the two people's aura was as vigorous as Yuan Yue, so he didn't dare to take it too seriously, and only lowered his posture and said humbly.
Zhaohui was overjoyed when he heard the words, and walked forward half a step, "Over 40 years ago, there was a family in the town who was taken away to practice Taoism shortly after giving birth to a daughter?"
She is now a sub-xuan cultivator, and her life expectancy is over forty. Fortunately, Li Chan has stayed in Yuanxi Town for many years. According to the monk's memory, such special events should not be forgotten.
Sure enough, after hearing these words, Li Chan was stunned. He looked Zhao Hui up and down, and then showed his face and said: "It turns out that the senior is the one who..."
Li Chan paused suddenly, as if realizing that he had made a slip of the tongue, he softened his tone and said, "It's only been a few decades, and the senior has achieved what he is today. He is really talented, far better than my generation."
As soon as Li Chan knew her background, Zhao Hui asked, "Then do you know the name of this family, and they are still in Yuanxi Town?"
"Uncle!" Chi Shen's complexion changed suddenly, he gently pulled Zhaohui's sleeve, and said, "I've been out for a long time today, I'd better go back first, don't offend the elders."
He always had a playful smile on his face, and rarely showed such a dignified and serious expression, but Zhaohui didn't know why Chi Shen suddenly asked her to return to the sect, and she still had doubts in her heart, it seemed that there was always an idea that drove her to get to the bottom of things She understood, so she just frowned at Chi Shen's words, obviously unwilling to agree to him.
Seeing this, Chi Shen felt more and more uneasy. Fortunately, Li Chan came out to smooth things over and explained to Zhaohui: "It's not that I don't want to tell you two, but that soon after the senior left, the family left They were moved to other places, and it has been more than 40 years now, and we and the people in the town do not know where they have gone.”
"However," Li Chan bowed slightly and said sincerely, "Senior, please listen to my old man who is half buried in the ground. Let this past matter pass by. Over the past few decades, all the previous dust has been turned into loess, so why worry about it?"
Zhaohui didn't say a word, and was just silent when he heard the words. Li Chan sighed secretly when he saw this, but turned around and took out a wooden box from the inside.
"This is left by the person who took away the senior. He once entrusted me with a word, saying that when the daughter of that family comes to the town in the future, he will open this wooden box and let her have a look."
After finishing speaking, he opened the wooden box and placed it in front of Zhaohui.
There was nothing in the box except for a piece of gray paper. Zhaohui looked intently, and saw the writing on the paper, which read "Don't forget, you will be bound by the past; if you don't ask, you will live forever." ", and the owner of this handwriting is very familiar to Yu Zhaohui, it is her mentor, Cui You, the sixth generation head of Zhaoyan!
And the moment she saw the handwriting on the paper, there seemed to be a puff of fresh air pounced on Zhaohui's eyebrows, causing a sense of fear to well up in her heart.
She took a few steps back and stopped asking about the past. It was at this time that Zhao Hui realized that her forehead was covered with cold sweat, and she was distracted by obsessive thoughts before.
But the strange thing is that she doesn't even know where this obsession came from, and in the past few decades, she has never had such a strong obsession with her life experience like today.
Zhaohui felt something was wrong, looked sideways at Chi Shen, nodded and said, "I'll go back first."
The other party breathed a sigh of relief, quickly nodded in agreement, but remembered today's strangeness in his heart, and after saying goodbye to Li Chan together with Zhaohui, he immediately rushed back to the sect.
With the foot strength of the two of them, it was already dawn when they reached Wenxian Valley, or because of Yuanxi Town, Zhaohui was still a little uneasy, and when he was walking quickly, he saw Chi Shen's expression was a little strange, pulling Stopping her to slow down, she whispered: "Uncle Shi, we may not be able to leave today."
Zhaohui frowned, followed Chi Shen's gaze and looked forward, and saw two Bufeishan black-robed disciples standing in the medicine field, one of them was of great stature, with a resolute face, and his long hair and shawl seemed wanton. Seeing Zhaohui and Chi Shen returning together, his face became even more unkind, and he said coldly: "You two left the sect without authorization, what should you do?"
Chi Shen smiled awkwardly, waved his hands and said, "But I didn't know that Senior Brother Baili was here, haha, I'm so sorry—"
His voice stopped suddenly, but his eyes fell on Baili Yue's feet, looking at the gold and stone puppets that had become a pile of scrap iron, he was speechless as if his throat was choked.
"Stealing the property of the Toolmaker and using it to aid the tyrant, this should be a higher crime." Baili Yue couldn't help but convict Chi Shen.
"As for you," he gritted his teeth and looked at Zhaohui. He was extremely angry at this person who refused to change after repeated admonitions and gave Bu Feishan a headache.
Zhaohui curled his lips, and without arguing with him, pulled up Chishen and went to Bufei Mountain.
When they got outside the punishment hall, there was a figure rushing over, waving to Baili Yue and saying: "This matter will be judged by this elder, you two should go down first."
Baili Yue glared angrily, and knew that someone had tipped off the news and summoned the elder of the punishment hall in front of him.The other party was deeply loved by Cui Youende, and he loved his disciples very much. Zhao Hui was usually favored by these elders, so he also planned to kill him first and then report to his superiors, so as not to let the matter go unnoticed.
"The elder is busy with other things, this matter should be done by the disciple—"
Baili Yue hurriedly opened his mouth, but was still interrupted by the other party, saying: "Okay, Qing Zheng, I know what you have in mind, but the head of the sect is about to ascend, and everything in the sect should be taken as the top priority. Just leave it alone, this elder has his own plans."
The opponent's attitude was tough, and they brought out the head immortal, even if Baili Yue was not afraid of arguing with him, he could not disobey the head's wishes.
Cui You's love for his disciples is well known in the sect, and the elder in front of him wholeheartedly supports the sect master, so it is probably impossible to shake the other party's mind.
"Yes, the disciple will leave." Baili Yue gritted his teeth, his face was gloomy, and he gave Zhao Hui and Chi Shen a hard look before turning and leaving with his comrades.
As expected, the Xingtang elder never made things difficult for the two of them, he only gave them a few earnest words of advice, and ordered them to go back to the cave for three months of confinement, and there was no other punishment other than that.
Chi Shen breathed a long sigh of relief, and went back to the cave as if he had received an amnesty. When he entered the door, he saw Qin Yishu sitting in the main hall, holding a volume of Taoism scriptures in his hand.
……
There are few stars on the moon, and there are light clouds that cover the bright white moonlight lightly.
Zhaohui climbed up to the osmanthus tree in front of the door, and the night breeze was cool and gentle, blowing people's minds with thoughts, making it difficult for her to calm down.
After a while, a person walked under the tree, with a gentle smile, and asked, "Did you get into trouble again today?"
This person is in his early twenties, with a moderate stature and a thin body. He wears a precious moon crown and a stone blue coat. He has clear eyebrows and a smile on his mouth.If he goes outside, no one will be able to see that he is Zhao Yan's current head, Cui You.
Zhao Hui looked down at him, pursed his lips and said, "The disciple went to Yuanxi Town and met Li Chan."
"I know it as a teacher," Cui You smiled indifferently, and jumped to the tree. He bent down and sat down beside Zhaohui, his eyes were calm and soft, "When I brought you back to the sect, I knew it as a teacher." There will definitely be such a day. Fortunately, what happened today is over, and there is a motto left to you by your teacher, so that obsessive thought should never trouble you again."
Zhao Hui was puzzled, looked at him with doubts, and asked: "Many people in the sect know their own backgrounds, but they are not trapped by the world, so why can't disciples find and ask?"
"Haha," Cui You laughed loudly, and answered her, "It was for the teacher to count his fingers, knowing that you will be here if you are doomed, so you made these arrangements. People have different fates, so do you understand?"
"Is that so?" Zhaohui turned his head and pouted, "To put it bluntly, you told Uncle Mao that it was his destiny that he deserved this disaster , so it's not my fault as a disciple, but on a bigger scale, the senior brother doesn't want to be the head of the sect, and you also tell him that this is the arrangement of heaven and fate, and ask him not to mess around.
"In the eyes of Master, destiny has always been more important than everything else. Now that you explain this, the disciples will reluctantly believe it."
Cui You laughed for a moment, and said slowly: "Among the disciples of Master Chu, the second senior brother Meng Congde has the highest reputation, and the fourth senior sister Xun Shengyi has the best aptitude, but the head chosen in the end has a gentle temperament and treats me well." Waiting for the third senior sister who has always been lenient. Perhaps it is also because of this that it is difficult for the senior brothers and sisters to convince each other."
"But you are the one who became the master in the end," Zhaohui said with a grin, "I'm afraid no one would have thought of it!"
"No," Cui You looked at her seriously, shook his head and said, "Master... I figured it out."
Apart from Chu Yunkai, almost no one knew of his talent for understanding numerology.So when the mentor appointed the third senior sister Qi Ruohuai as the head of the sect, but he never saw Qi Ruohuai's destiny to be the head of the sect, Cui You felt only infinite fear.
He knew very well that he was mediocre, and he couldn't bear to compete with his brothers and sisters, and he never thought that he would be the head of the sect.
It's just that everything that happened later told Cui You that his calculations were correct.Xun Shengyi is arrogant, Meng Congde is cold and ruthless, and Kang Jingyun, the fifth senior brother who was supported by the aristocratic family, is not taken seriously by Taiyan Jiuxuan.The final winner of the Nine Immortals Rebellion was supposed to be Qi Ruohuai, who was ordered by Master Chu to take over as the master.
But who would have thought that the battle with Xun Shengyi would damage her Dao fruit, so that Qi Ruohuai had to reincarnate and leave, and finally elected Cui You as the head.
Others thought that it was a fluke that Cui You intercepted the victory from Qi Ruohuai, but only Cui You knew that the final outcome of the Nine Immortals Rebellion had already come to fruition from the moment Master Chu appointed the head of the sect. .
He just followed the general trend...
"In my whole life, I've been like a prisoner of destiny," Cui You smiled bitterly, and looked at Zhaohui sadly, "As a teacher, I only did one thing that violated the destiny."
Zhaohui waited quietly for him to speak, but Cui You kept silent and just looked at the night sky from a distance.
Today the stars are sparse and the brilliance is dim, only one star shone brightly in the night.
"Hai Xingxing." Zhaohui murmured.
Hanging under the gate of heaven, the star that began to shine at Haishi, where the star of Hai is, means where the gate of heaven has moved to. If the monks in the world want to ascend, they must be guided by this star, so as to sense the specific situation of the gate of heaven. where.
"Since you are leaving, I will give you something as a teacher."
"What?" Zhaohui asked
"It was supposed to be given to you earlier, but it was delayed until today," Cui Youyao pointed to the night sky, and said, "How about I give you a Taoist name for my master, Haiqing?"
"Master, is this a whim?"
"No, it's just that I suddenly sensed the destiny." Cui You shook his head in denial, without changing expression or beating heartbeat.
But the night breeze is smooth and the osmanthus trees are fragrant. Those who are about to leave will go, but those who see them off have not yet returned.
……
On the day of Cui You's Immortal Ascension Conference, Feng Shi finally rushed back.
"The disciple came late, and I hope the master will forgive me." He had a rare gloomy face, and anyone who was around him could feel Feng Shijing's unusually obvious unhappiness.
"It's good if you come, it's good if you come." Cui You nodded and smiled, without any intention of blaming his disciple, he just ordered him to take a seat and sit down with Wen Sui and Zhao Hui.
During the dinner, Zhao Hui couldn't help asking him: "Brother, why did you come back now? After today, Master... Uncle Mao will definitely want to say a few words to you again."
As soon as the words came out of her mouth, she remembered that Mao Dingshan was notoriously reticent, and after Cui You left, no one else would come to tell her to wait, so she felt a little sad because of her slip of the tongue.
But when she raised her head, she was surprised to find that Feng Shi was still in a daze, and the senior sister Wen Sui next to her couldn't help showing worry, so she asked a few words repeatedly.
"It doesn't matter." Feng Shi actually sat down, and when Zhao Hui looked again, he had returned to his previous appearance of being breezy and bright.
Fortunately, the Ascension to Immortal Conference went quite smoothly, Cui You was successful in cultivating Taoism, and when he broke through the gate of heaven, there was still celestial music wafting, which made everyone envious.
After all the people were gone, Mao Dingshan came forward and said majesticly: "According to what the sect master said, the nephew should be the successor and take the helm of the sect. And the position of the sect master should not be left vacant for too long, the nephew should be the master." You have to plan ahead.”
Feng Shi nodded slightly, and replied: "You can follow the arrangement of Master Uncle, I have no objection."
Mao Dingshan was surprised at his obedience. After looking at Wen Sui, he made up his mind and said: "Then the succession ceremony will be scheduled in three days. At that time, we will enshrine the Zen and worship the ancestors. If the nephew agrees, I will wait." You can start preparing now.”
"Trouble Master Uncle and all the immortals." Feng Shi nodded and said.
When the two were talking, Zhao Hui stood beside Wen Sui, immersed in the loss of her mentor's ascent, so she never saw Feng Shijing's gloomy gaze like Wen Sui.
Cui You's ascension made everyone in the sect busy with the handover of the sect leader, so no one has time to care about whether Chi Shen and Zhao Hui are still in confinement.
But this day, Zhaohui was sitting under the osmanthus tree, but he saw Chi Shen running in a hurry, his face was terrified and anxious, and when he saw Zhaohui, he shouted:
"Uncle, my mentor is gone!"
Zhaohui stood up abruptly, and took Chi Shen to Yuandu Dongtian without asking any questions.
The next day was the succession ceremony, but Feng Shi was nowhere to be seen at this time. With such a monstrous event, Wen Sui and Mao Dingshan should be most worried!
When she and Chi Shen rushed to the outside of the hall, Mao Dingshan's voice was undeniably firm, and he said: "Nephew Wen, don't make excuses anymore, you are also the head of the sect, and you belong to the Taiyan Jiuxuan lineage, and now you are sealed off If you are not here, who else can be more justified than you?
"Tomorrow is the succession ceremony, and the invitations I sent have already been sent out. If no one is there when offering sacrifices to the ancestors, wouldn't the sects all over the world laugh at me, Zhaoyan, nephew Wen? This is a last resort. !"
After Mao Dingshan finished speaking, other voices echoed, Wen Sui stood among the crowd with a gloomy face, where was his usual composure and composure.
Zhaohui stood blankly at the door, watching the senior sister respond to the matter amidst all the urging voices, but she firmly refused to agree to take over as head, only saying that she could not disobey the master's order, so she could only take over temporarily.All the immortals breathed a sigh of relief, but no one could understand that Wen Sui's heart was full of worries for his junior.
Just like the day when Cui You was promoted, no one could understand Zhaohui's feeling of helplessness.
……
It has been more than [-] years since Feng Shi went away, Wen Sui took over the head of the sect in a state of anxiety, with Mao Dingshan as his assistant, nothing went wrong.
As for why Wen Sui was the interim head, and what happened in it, the other nine sects of the orthodox sects all kept silent, thinking it was Zhaoyan's internal affairs and did not dare to intervene in it.Only Yixuanjianzong asked a few more questions, but in the end Mao Dingshan stopped him with a word.
As far as Yu Zhaohui is concerned, the days seem to have not changed much, but because her cultivation base has gradually increased, others no longer treat her as a child.
She still likes to climb up the laurel tree in front of the house in the dead of night.Everything responds to the vicissitudes of life, only Haixing remains the same.Hai Qing, Hai Qing, she may have started to like this dao name, so she refuses to let others call her by her first and last name, and only let others call her by this name.
Zhao Hui looked carefully, but couldn't see the outline of Tianmen from the Haixing star. She was thinking, where will the master go after ascending from Tianmen? Will the laws of heaven and fate still trap him?Where did the senior brother go, and why did he not return for so long?
Brighter and brighter stars are reflected in her eyes, and the brilliant brilliance draws a long tail on the star.
Zhaohui was slightly stunned, but the long tail became more and more obvious. The stars that existed since the establishment of the Three Thousand Worlds, just today, fell downwards in her horrified eyes until they disappeared at the end of the night.
……
Hai star has fallen!
What followed was chaos.
The sky sea in the south of the world boiled endlessly, and the boundless sea water seemed to be boiled, and the deep cracks in the dome began to be exposed. Without the obstruction of the sky sea, the violent Yuan Qi from outside the world swept in, causing countless deaths and injuries in the entire south land, and thousands of living beings were buried in the deep sea. The rift absorbs the outside world, and then shatters into the void.
The demon Taoist monks in Jingshan Ghost Domain fled in panic because of this, and even crossed the territory set by the Taiyi Golden Immortal back then.The evil cultivators who flooded into the Northland began to slaughter innocent people, using the nearby sects as sacrifices for human sacrifices, and took advantage of the coming catastrophe without any scruples to carry out their evil intentions.
And the Mo Yuan under the Suppressing Void Sect also changed frequently, so that in just three months, hundreds of letters asking for help were sent to the two great immortal sects.
Junling Cave, Quanyu Palace.
Wen Sui summoned all the immortals here, with his mind set, and said: "Yaori Island sent a letter to ask for help, the three Sun Palace clans suffered heavy losses, Emperor Hengxu's eldest son and eldest daughter both fell, and the six-winged blue bird clan Fanyuan wise man was reincarnated after a serious injury. , the patriarch of the Jinyu Dapeng clan also died. Now the Sun Palace alone cannot stop the fall of Tianhai!"
All the immortals looked at each other, and they all saw the shock in each other's eyes.
The fall of four immortal-level powerhouses shows how terrifying the power of this catastrophe is!
He waited for his heart to be heavy, and at this moment he shouted in unison: "But listen to the orders of the head immortal!"
Wen Sui Surong nodded, and said in a deep voice: "The change of Tianhai is not unrelated to the fall of the Hai star. At that time, I will go south with the master Shi of the Taiyuan Taoist sect to see how to prevent this catastrophe. Xi and Liang, two sword celestial beings from South Tianhai Jie, will definitely help me, so you don't have to worry too much.
"As for the Suppressing Void Sect's request for help, it is necessary to ask my uncle and junior brother Han to help me."
Mao Dingshan responded with a nod of his own, and made a slight gesture with his disciple Han Xuzheng, saying: "Please rest assured, the master, I, the master and the apprentice, will do our best."
"The demon cultivators from Jingshan Ghost Domain came out in full force, causing much unrest in the Northland. I asked the two junior sisters, Zhang Xianren and Zhu Xianren, to take action on their behalf." Once the words were settled, Wen Sui had already made another arrangement. .
Zhang Yun and Zhu Miaoyun responded together, with solemn expressions.
"As for the affairs of the sect, I will leave them to Nephew Qin to handle."
After that, Wen Sui ordered a few more people to go to Tianhai with her to investigate the situation. All the immortals were convinced of her, so they had no objection to this.
And when all the immortals left, a figure rushed out from the inner hall and knelt down in front of Wen Sui.
With a determined gaze, Zhaohui shouted: "Senior Sister, I want to go to Tianhai with you!"
Wen Sui, who had always been obedient to her, changed his face at this moment, and scolded sharply: "The catastrophe is rising, how can you allow you to mess around here, why don't you quickly back down!"
"Senior Sister!" Zhao Hui grabbed her by the hem of the clothes, his eyes were full of pleading, "You let me go, you let me go!"
Seeing Wen Sui's delay in responding, Zhao Hui felt aggrieved, and the heart that had been hanging all this time smashed her rationality to pieces.
"The master is gone, and the brother has gone somewhere, do you want to leave me here alone?"
Wen Sui was startled, bent down to hold her hand, and his expression gradually eased.The two looked at each other, but no matter how hard Zhao Hui begged, Wen Sui never let go of his promise.
Hundreds of years have passed since then, but Zhaohui has never seen her senior sister again.
Only when the world is settled and all the common people are overjoyed at being reborn after the catastrophe, the news that Wen Sui ruined the Dao and turned into a Sanxian, it was like a blow to the head that knocked her heart out.
I see thousands of people rejoicing to have a future, but I am the only one who weeps because your path is ruined.
This is a despicable selfishness that I dare not speak out under the righteousness praised by the world.
Zhaohui stood in front of the osmanthus tree in a daze, watching Haixing slowly rise into the night sky.Endless unwillingness welled up in her heart, and she slapped the tree with her palm, causing the fire to climb up.
When Cui You brought her back to the Zongmen, he planted this osmanthus tree in front of the house for her, but now it has been burned, and it is no longer there.
In the face of the apocalypse, she felt powerless because of her weakness, so she could only use the way of destroying herself to try to vent the grief and anger in her heart.
But when Feng Shi saw this scene, he could only be silent.
"Why did you come back at this time?" Zhaohui lowered his head and refused to look at him, and asked himself, "Forget it, you never said anything."
She walked straight past Feng Shijing, so she never saw the complex scrutiny in Feng Shijing's eyes.
After Zhaohui left, he smiled miserably, stepped into the ashes of the osmanthus tree alone, and broke off the last living branch with his own hands.
"The catastrophe of heaven and earth begins today...it begins with me!"
……
Mao Dingshan's voice was as majestic as before, which made Zhaohui very irritable.
She knelt with the disciples of Taiyan Jiuxuan lineage, behind him was Chi Shen with a serious face, and Immortal Qin stood on a high place, personally handing over the great seal to the successor head.
All the immortals felt deeply at ease because the head of the sect returned, as if after the end of the thousand sails, everything would be as before.
After three kneelings and nine knocks, Zhaohui stood among the disciples bored, small, new grass sprouts emerged from the cracks in the bricks and stones at her feet.
She thought sadly that it was another spring. (end of this chapter)
Under the cloudy sky, a stream of pure spiritual energy surrounds the valley. Looking down from the mountain, one can see a large spiritual field spread out, surrounded by continuous green tiles and white walls.
There is no rice or wheat planted on the spiritual field, but upon closer inspection, there are medicinal herbs full of aura growing in the field. From time to time, there are medicinal farmers walking on the ridge, carefully screening the condition of the medicinal herbs.And the harvest of medicinal materials in these spiritual fields is related to their contributions at the end of the year, so no matter the weather, no one dares to relax.
At the end of the year, deacon disciples from the sect will come to inspect the medicine fields. According to the growth of the elixir and the fertility of the land, four grades will be evaluated, A, B, C, and D. Among them, A is the highest, and D is the lowest. The best ones will receive additional rewards.And whether it is the contribution given according to the evaluation level, or this other reward, it will eventually become the various resources they need for practice.
For outside disciples with no background and no family to rely on, this will be a rare way of cultivation, and it is also the best choice to touch the immortal fate.
As long as you practice diligently and break through to the reunion period within a certain age, you can enter Zhaoyan and become an inner disciple.
A few disciples from the outer sect hurried past the field ridge, and when they caught a glimpse of a figure lying on the ground, they couldn't help showing a bit of envy.
The woman had her hands behind her head and a weed that she found somewhere in her mouth. She looked completely bored, but the deacon disciple who supervised the place was respectful to her, and she didn't even dare to say a serious word. , although everyone felt dissatisfied, they could also guess that the identity of this person was not simple.
Huang Guan naturally knew that this person's identity was extraordinary, if the other party hadn't been punished to come here to look after the medicine field, he might not have even seen a person like Zhao Hui, who is the pride of heaven.
Personally handed down by the head of the sect, a disciple of the Taiyan Jiuxuan lineage.Although she is young, her seniority is extremely high, if she really wants to talk about it, the Immortal Qin in the door has to call her "Little Martial Uncle".
And half a month ago, two black-robed law enforcement disciples from Bufeishan came here and wanted to arrange Zhaohui to be punished in the medicine field under his jurisdiction. Huang Guan only found out that this ancestor seemed to be injured. He was from the same family, so he was ordered to take care of the medicine field.
For this reason, he was even more cautious, for fear of getting into Zhaohui's bad luck, lest he be taught a lesson.
"Blocked."
Huang Guan was taken aback for a moment, but the woman in front of him had already stood up. She was tall, half a head taller than Huang Guan himself, with a well-proportioned and slender body, with a face as bright as the morning glow, but her eyes were extremely There is a sense of oppression.
With long eyebrows drawn into the temples, a pair of phoenix eyes stared slightly below, with a sullen expression on his face, which made Huang Guan tremble in fright.
Standing on the ridge of the field, he didn't know what he was blocking, but he still responded obediently, and fled quickly from Zhaohui's sight in three steps at a time.
When Huang Guan left the place, Zhaohui snorted coldly, stretched out his foot and kicked the nearby bushes, saying: "People are gone, get out quickly."
I only heard "Ouch" coming from the bushes, but a person crawled out of the bushes.
He covered his shoulders, grinned his teeth and said: "This kick almost killed me by your nephew."
Zhaohui squinted his eyes, watching the boy put on a show, but never said a word.
As if he didn't hear the echo, the young man soon put on a playful smile, clasped his hands together in front of his chest and said, "Why is uncle so upset? Who messed with you? Nephew will vent your anger on you."
"You have the face to say it, Chi Shen!" Zhao Hui grabbed the boy's collar and said through gritted teeth, "I knew those people were cowards who couldn't afford it, so what are you doing with them? You promised that the winner of the ring would win everything." Caitou, turn your face away and don’t recognize me, I just taught them a lesson, and I was actually accused of going to Bufei Mountain, what a villain!”
Chi Shen just grinned, but he was already crying in his heart.
Among the people who were "taught", there were disciples from the Eighteenth Cave Heaven, as well as bloodlines from aristocratic families. Zhao Hui didn't know the severity of his actions, and several disciples returned to the master's sect for people to see, and they all offended the elders in the sect. Shocked and angry, he was sued to Bufei Mountain.
After Zhaohui was angry, he pushed Chi Shen's collar forward, let go, and said, "It's really unlucky, it's unlucky for me to meet Baili Yue on duty in the Law Enforcement Hall, unlucky!"
As the head of the sect, she has to be courteous to others wherever she goes, so even if she is accused of going to Bufei Mountain, she doesn't think she will be punished for these trivial matters.Unexpectedly, the disciple who was guarding the Law Enforcement Hall that day happened to be Baili Yue, who came from a poor family, and couldn't get used to those disciples who behaved mischievously and acted recklessly based on their status. It is his condemnation.
And Baili Yue wanted to be punished more severely, but the disciple Zhenying didn't have much authority in his hands, and he had to discuss the punishment with his colleagues, so Zhaohui's punishment was reduced a lot.
Seeing that she was gradually losing her temper, Chi Shen approached her in a low voice and persuaded, "Master, why do you need to be angry about these things?" He winked his eyes and raised his eyebrows, "I got a new good thing, you see Don't you see?"
After all, without waiting for Haiqing to nod, he raised his sleeves and flung them aside.
But he didn't know what came out of his sleeve, and after falling to the ground, a white light appeared, and then the white light dispersed, and what appeared in front of the two of them was exactly the same figure as Zhaohui.
"Here, Sprinkling Beans into Soldiers, isn't it amazing?"
Zhao Hui glanced at it, and said angrily, "It's just a puppet, so it doesn't count as a supernatural power."
"This is not an ordinary puppet!" Chi Shen lowered his voice, "Isn't the master master about to ascend to the ascension? At that time, the Ascension Conference will need manpower, so the senior brother ordered the Department of Artifacts to hurry up and build a batch of gold and stone puppets. I heard that This thing is almost indistinguishable from a real person, even its appearance can be manipulated at will—”
"You dare to take this thing casually," Zhao Hui heard the veins on his forehead twitching violently, he just wanted to slap Chi Shen on the head, but he was afraid of making him even more stupid, "If Immortal Qin finds out, what will happen?" You feel good!"
But Chi Shen waved his hand and said, "Don't worry, what I took is just a defective item, and the Equipment Manufacturing Division won't pursue it, let alone——"
He grinned: "Nursing the medicine field is so boring, now that I have replaced it with a puppet, the uncle will be more at ease?"
Zhaohui glanced at the golden stone puppet suspiciously, but his mind was full of thoughts. She had a free and unrestrained temperament. If she really wanted her to stay here honestly, it would be better to kill her. Now the way to escape is at hand. How could Zhaohui care about Sanqi 21? Anyway, monks like Huang Guan couldn't tell the difference between a puppet and a human. Even if she walked away, who would know?
The combination of the two made up their minds to go down the mountain.
After all, there are law enforcement disciples patrolling everywhere in the sect, and going to the inner sect is tantamount to throwing oneself into a trap, so it's better to take this opportunity to go down the mountain to have some fun, it's also a way to relax.
When Zhaohui was still in her infancy, she was brought back to the door by Cui You, the head of the sect. Her name and surname were also taken by Cui You, which means "when the sun rises, the light shines everywhere." As for who her biological parents were, she did not know. I have never seen it before, but I only know from Cui You that I was born in Yuanxi Town near Zhaoyan, and my parents are ordinary people without celestial karma. She brought back Zhaoyan.
For some reason, even though she has no memory of her homeland, at this moment there is always a sense of longing, forcing her to go to Yuanxi Town.
There are even several large cities under Zhaoyan's jurisdiction, and there are countless towns like Yuanxi.The two climbed over mountains and ridges, passed several streams and rivers, and waited until the sun was setting to the west, and the sky was full of sunset clouds, before they settled down by a clear stream.There is a gurgling sound of water here, and several children in linen clothes are playing and playing. Behind them is a low wall, and the houses in the wall are like houses, and the smoke is floating.
Seeing strangers coming, the children timidly withdrew their smiles. Among them was a bold one who seemed to be the leader of the group, but asked Zhaohui and the others: "Where do you come from, and what are your interests?" matter?"
The child's voice was immature, with a hint of defensiveness.
Yuanxi Town is located in a remote place, even the nearest city is away from here, there are also two day and night tutorials.Therefore, most of the people in the town have a few fields to grow rice and wheat for self-sufficiency, and if there is any surplus, they can go to the city to invite monks to come and cultivate the land, plant a few acres of spiritual rice and sell it in the city.Therefore, although Yuanxi Town is small, it is by no means poor.
It's just that Zhaohui's clothes are obviously not like those of the townspeople, and even the rich and noble people in the city can rarely dress like this.Although the children are innocent in temperament, they can also recognize others from their clothes and appearance. Now when they see Zhaohui and Chi Shen, they know that they must have come from afar.
Zhaohui was taken aback by the question, thought for a while and replied: "I used to be from Yuanxi Town, so I came here specially today to take a look."
As soon as this remark came out, Chi Shen beside him had slightly surprised eyes. Zhao Hui was about the same age as him. It was said that he was brought back to the door by the head immortal when he was young, so he worshiped under the seat of his mentor At that time, the other party was already the head of the sect. As for where it came from, not many people in the sect really knew about it.
She had no reason to lie to these children, not to mention that she herself was quite outspoken. After thinking about it, she knew that the fact that she was born in Yuanxi Town should be true.
Hearing Zhaohui say that he is from the town, the faces of the children showed some doubts.Children of this age are always happy and angry, and after thinking about it boldly, they said to their friends: "Then she is the same as Fifth Master, she came back after learning the fairy art outside."
Hearing this, the little girl with the double buns blinked her eyes and asked naively: "Sister, what kind of fairy art do you know? Can you make the seeds germinate with one breath like Fifth Master?"
The Dekun Palace gathers all kinds of spells, and such a small spell that spawns grass sprouts is not even qualified to be included in the palace collection.Zhaohui smiled slightly, and leaned over to answer the girl, but at this moment, shouts came from behind her, which made the group of children panic and started running towards the town.
At this moment when the sun was setting and the parents were calling their children to go home, Zhaohui straightened up and looked at the woman with her hips on the low wall. The girl who was wearing a double bun before was now throwing herself in her mother's arms. Acting like a baby, but the woman's eyes widened and she asked in surprise, "Where did the two immortal masters come from?"
With an adult's eyesight, I can see that Zhaohui and Zhaohui are extraordinary ordinary people, and when she finds out that the other party is from Yuanxi Town, the woman is even more surprised, and hastily said: "I will take the two of you to see Wu. Lord!"
The fifth master she was talking about was named Li Chan from the town, and because he was only a foundation cultivator, he was already old and hard to hide.
When Li Chan was young, he was quite good at arithmetic, so he worked as an accountant for a rich family in the city. The rich family had a medicinal material business, and on weekdays he had contacts with some servants in the monk's mansion. These servants were respectful in front of the monks, but ordinary In front of the people, it is very arrogant.Li Chan saw more of these, and began to have the idea of cultivating Taoism in his heart.
If you want to say which is the largest sect nearby, I am afraid that there will be no second answer other than Zhaoyan.Li Chan longed for the Taoism of the immortal family, and after making up his mind, he packed his bags and went to the Valley of Asking Immortals to seek immortal fate.Fortunately, he does have spiritual roots, but his aptitude is really mediocre. After decades of cultivation, he can barely build a foundation, and if he wants to become an inner disciple, his hope is slim.
From being ambitious when he was young, to being disheartened after not seeing any progress for many years, Li Chan finally realized that he was indeed not the kind of person who was blessed with luck, so at an octogenarian age, he returned to Yuanxi Town , taking care of the people in the town with his own academic methods, and now he has become the generation of Delong Wangzun in this Yuanxi town.
As soon as he saw the two of them, he suddenly stood up from his seat, and said with a respectful salute: "Young Li Chan, I have met two seniors."
Ask the monks in the Immortal Valley, although they claim to be disciples of Zhaoyan's outer sect, they have not been recognized by the sect in fact, and they are not like formal disciples who can leave the jade talisman and light a longevity lamp in Jiudu Hall Soul Lamp.That's why Li Chan didn't dare to pretend to be Zhaoyan's disciple, and he only showed it to outsiders as a casual cultivator on weekdays.
Because they ran out secretly, Zhao Hui and Chi Shen took off the life talisman to show their identity early. She called Li Chan to get up, but asked eagerly, "How long has the old man been in Yuanxi Town?"
"It's not too long, it's just been 60 years now." Li Chan saw that the two people's aura was as vigorous as Yuan Yue, so he didn't dare to take it too seriously, and only lowered his posture and said humbly.
Zhaohui was overjoyed when he heard the words, and walked forward half a step, "Over 40 years ago, there was a family in the town who was taken away to practice Taoism shortly after giving birth to a daughter?"
She is now a sub-xuan cultivator, and her life expectancy is over forty. Fortunately, Li Chan has stayed in Yuanxi Town for many years. According to the monk's memory, such special events should not be forgotten.
Sure enough, after hearing these words, Li Chan was stunned. He looked Zhao Hui up and down, and then showed his face and said: "It turns out that the senior is the one who..."
Li Chan paused suddenly, as if realizing that he had made a slip of the tongue, he softened his tone and said, "It's only been a few decades, and the senior has achieved what he is today. He is really talented, far better than my generation."
As soon as Li Chan knew her background, Zhao Hui asked, "Then do you know the name of this family, and they are still in Yuanxi Town?"
"Uncle!" Chi Shen's complexion changed suddenly, he gently pulled Zhaohui's sleeve, and said, "I've been out for a long time today, I'd better go back first, don't offend the elders."
He always had a playful smile on his face, and rarely showed such a dignified and serious expression, but Zhaohui didn't know why Chi Shen suddenly asked her to return to the sect, and she still had doubts in her heart, it seemed that there was always an idea that drove her to get to the bottom of things She understood, so she just frowned at Chi Shen's words, obviously unwilling to agree to him.
Seeing this, Chi Shen felt more and more uneasy. Fortunately, Li Chan came out to smooth things over and explained to Zhaohui: "It's not that I don't want to tell you two, but that soon after the senior left, the family left They were moved to other places, and it has been more than 40 years now, and we and the people in the town do not know where they have gone.”
"However," Li Chan bowed slightly and said sincerely, "Senior, please listen to my old man who is half buried in the ground. Let this past matter pass by. Over the past few decades, all the previous dust has been turned into loess, so why worry about it?"
Zhaohui didn't say a word, and was just silent when he heard the words. Li Chan sighed secretly when he saw this, but turned around and took out a wooden box from the inside.
"This is left by the person who took away the senior. He once entrusted me with a word, saying that when the daughter of that family comes to the town in the future, he will open this wooden box and let her have a look."
After finishing speaking, he opened the wooden box and placed it in front of Zhaohui.
There was nothing in the box except for a piece of gray paper. Zhaohui looked intently, and saw the writing on the paper, which read "Don't forget, you will be bound by the past; if you don't ask, you will live forever." ", and the owner of this handwriting is very familiar to Yu Zhaohui, it is her mentor, Cui You, the sixth generation head of Zhaoyan!
And the moment she saw the handwriting on the paper, there seemed to be a puff of fresh air pounced on Zhaohui's eyebrows, causing a sense of fear to well up in her heart.
She took a few steps back and stopped asking about the past. It was at this time that Zhao Hui realized that her forehead was covered with cold sweat, and she was distracted by obsessive thoughts before.
But the strange thing is that she doesn't even know where this obsession came from, and in the past few decades, she has never had such a strong obsession with her life experience like today.
Zhaohui felt something was wrong, looked sideways at Chi Shen, nodded and said, "I'll go back first."
The other party breathed a sigh of relief, quickly nodded in agreement, but remembered today's strangeness in his heart, and after saying goodbye to Li Chan together with Zhaohui, he immediately rushed back to the sect.
With the foot strength of the two of them, it was already dawn when they reached Wenxian Valley, or because of Yuanxi Town, Zhaohui was still a little uneasy, and when he was walking quickly, he saw Chi Shen's expression was a little strange, pulling Stopping her to slow down, she whispered: "Uncle Shi, we may not be able to leave today."
Zhaohui frowned, followed Chi Shen's gaze and looked forward, and saw two Bufeishan black-robed disciples standing in the medicine field, one of them was of great stature, with a resolute face, and his long hair and shawl seemed wanton. Seeing Zhaohui and Chi Shen returning together, his face became even more unkind, and he said coldly: "You two left the sect without authorization, what should you do?"
Chi Shen smiled awkwardly, waved his hands and said, "But I didn't know that Senior Brother Baili was here, haha, I'm so sorry—"
His voice stopped suddenly, but his eyes fell on Baili Yue's feet, looking at the gold and stone puppets that had become a pile of scrap iron, he was speechless as if his throat was choked.
"Stealing the property of the Toolmaker and using it to aid the tyrant, this should be a higher crime." Baili Yue couldn't help but convict Chi Shen.
"As for you," he gritted his teeth and looked at Zhaohui. He was extremely angry at this person who refused to change after repeated admonitions and gave Bu Feishan a headache.
Zhaohui curled his lips, and without arguing with him, pulled up Chishen and went to Bufei Mountain.
When they got outside the punishment hall, there was a figure rushing over, waving to Baili Yue and saying: "This matter will be judged by this elder, you two should go down first."
Baili Yue glared angrily, and knew that someone had tipped off the news and summoned the elder of the punishment hall in front of him.The other party was deeply loved by Cui Youende, and he loved his disciples very much. Zhao Hui was usually favored by these elders, so he also planned to kill him first and then report to his superiors, so as not to let the matter go unnoticed.
"The elder is busy with other things, this matter should be done by the disciple—"
Baili Yue hurriedly opened his mouth, but was still interrupted by the other party, saying: "Okay, Qing Zheng, I know what you have in mind, but the head of the sect is about to ascend, and everything in the sect should be taken as the top priority. Just leave it alone, this elder has his own plans."
The opponent's attitude was tough, and they brought out the head immortal, even if Baili Yue was not afraid of arguing with him, he could not disobey the head's wishes.
Cui You's love for his disciples is well known in the sect, and the elder in front of him wholeheartedly supports the sect master, so it is probably impossible to shake the other party's mind.
"Yes, the disciple will leave." Baili Yue gritted his teeth, his face was gloomy, and he gave Zhao Hui and Chi Shen a hard look before turning and leaving with his comrades.
As expected, the Xingtang elder never made things difficult for the two of them, he only gave them a few earnest words of advice, and ordered them to go back to the cave for three months of confinement, and there was no other punishment other than that.
Chi Shen breathed a long sigh of relief, and went back to the cave as if he had received an amnesty. When he entered the door, he saw Qin Yishu sitting in the main hall, holding a volume of Taoism scriptures in his hand.
……
There are few stars on the moon, and there are light clouds that cover the bright white moonlight lightly.
Zhaohui climbed up to the osmanthus tree in front of the door, and the night breeze was cool and gentle, blowing people's minds with thoughts, making it difficult for her to calm down.
After a while, a person walked under the tree, with a gentle smile, and asked, "Did you get into trouble again today?"
This person is in his early twenties, with a moderate stature and a thin body. He wears a precious moon crown and a stone blue coat. He has clear eyebrows and a smile on his mouth.If he goes outside, no one will be able to see that he is Zhao Yan's current head, Cui You.
Zhao Hui looked down at him, pursed his lips and said, "The disciple went to Yuanxi Town and met Li Chan."
"I know it as a teacher," Cui You smiled indifferently, and jumped to the tree. He bent down and sat down beside Zhaohui, his eyes were calm and soft, "When I brought you back to the sect, I knew it as a teacher." There will definitely be such a day. Fortunately, what happened today is over, and there is a motto left to you by your teacher, so that obsessive thought should never trouble you again."
Zhao Hui was puzzled, looked at him with doubts, and asked: "Many people in the sect know their own backgrounds, but they are not trapped by the world, so why can't disciples find and ask?"
"Haha," Cui You laughed loudly, and answered her, "It was for the teacher to count his fingers, knowing that you will be here if you are doomed, so you made these arrangements. People have different fates, so do you understand?"
"Is that so?" Zhaohui turned his head and pouted, "To put it bluntly, you told Uncle Mao that it was his destiny that he deserved this disaster , so it's not my fault as a disciple, but on a bigger scale, the senior brother doesn't want to be the head of the sect, and you also tell him that this is the arrangement of heaven and fate, and ask him not to mess around.
"In the eyes of Master, destiny has always been more important than everything else. Now that you explain this, the disciples will reluctantly believe it."
Cui You laughed for a moment, and said slowly: "Among the disciples of Master Chu, the second senior brother Meng Congde has the highest reputation, and the fourth senior sister Xun Shengyi has the best aptitude, but the head chosen in the end has a gentle temperament and treats me well." Waiting for the third senior sister who has always been lenient. Perhaps it is also because of this that it is difficult for the senior brothers and sisters to convince each other."
"But you are the one who became the master in the end," Zhaohui said with a grin, "I'm afraid no one would have thought of it!"
"No," Cui You looked at her seriously, shook his head and said, "Master... I figured it out."
Apart from Chu Yunkai, almost no one knew of his talent for understanding numerology.So when the mentor appointed the third senior sister Qi Ruohuai as the head of the sect, but he never saw Qi Ruohuai's destiny to be the head of the sect, Cui You felt only infinite fear.
He knew very well that he was mediocre, and he couldn't bear to compete with his brothers and sisters, and he never thought that he would be the head of the sect.
It's just that everything that happened later told Cui You that his calculations were correct.Xun Shengyi is arrogant, Meng Congde is cold and ruthless, and Kang Jingyun, the fifth senior brother who was supported by the aristocratic family, is not taken seriously by Taiyan Jiuxuan.The final winner of the Nine Immortals Rebellion was supposed to be Qi Ruohuai, who was ordered by Master Chu to take over as the master.
But who would have thought that the battle with Xun Shengyi would damage her Dao fruit, so that Qi Ruohuai had to reincarnate and leave, and finally elected Cui You as the head.
Others thought that it was a fluke that Cui You intercepted the victory from Qi Ruohuai, but only Cui You knew that the final outcome of the Nine Immortals Rebellion had already come to fruition from the moment Master Chu appointed the head of the sect. .
He just followed the general trend...
"In my whole life, I've been like a prisoner of destiny," Cui You smiled bitterly, and looked at Zhaohui sadly, "As a teacher, I only did one thing that violated the destiny."
Zhaohui waited quietly for him to speak, but Cui You kept silent and just looked at the night sky from a distance.
Today the stars are sparse and the brilliance is dim, only one star shone brightly in the night.
"Hai Xingxing." Zhaohui murmured.
Hanging under the gate of heaven, the star that began to shine at Haishi, where the star of Hai is, means where the gate of heaven has moved to. If the monks in the world want to ascend, they must be guided by this star, so as to sense the specific situation of the gate of heaven. where.
"Since you are leaving, I will give you something as a teacher."
"What?" Zhaohui asked
"It was supposed to be given to you earlier, but it was delayed until today," Cui Youyao pointed to the night sky, and said, "How about I give you a Taoist name for my master, Haiqing?"
"Master, is this a whim?"
"No, it's just that I suddenly sensed the destiny." Cui You shook his head in denial, without changing expression or beating heartbeat.
But the night breeze is smooth and the osmanthus trees are fragrant. Those who are about to leave will go, but those who see them off have not yet returned.
……
On the day of Cui You's Immortal Ascension Conference, Feng Shi finally rushed back.
"The disciple came late, and I hope the master will forgive me." He had a rare gloomy face, and anyone who was around him could feel Feng Shijing's unusually obvious unhappiness.
"It's good if you come, it's good if you come." Cui You nodded and smiled, without any intention of blaming his disciple, he just ordered him to take a seat and sit down with Wen Sui and Zhao Hui.
During the dinner, Zhao Hui couldn't help asking him: "Brother, why did you come back now? After today, Master... Uncle Mao will definitely want to say a few words to you again."
As soon as the words came out of her mouth, she remembered that Mao Dingshan was notoriously reticent, and after Cui You left, no one else would come to tell her to wait, so she felt a little sad because of her slip of the tongue.
But when she raised her head, she was surprised to find that Feng Shi was still in a daze, and the senior sister Wen Sui next to her couldn't help showing worry, so she asked a few words repeatedly.
"It doesn't matter." Feng Shi actually sat down, and when Zhao Hui looked again, he had returned to his previous appearance of being breezy and bright.
Fortunately, the Ascension to Immortal Conference went quite smoothly, Cui You was successful in cultivating Taoism, and when he broke through the gate of heaven, there was still celestial music wafting, which made everyone envious.
After all the people were gone, Mao Dingshan came forward and said majesticly: "According to what the sect master said, the nephew should be the successor and take the helm of the sect. And the position of the sect master should not be left vacant for too long, the nephew should be the master." You have to plan ahead.”
Feng Shi nodded slightly, and replied: "You can follow the arrangement of Master Uncle, I have no objection."
Mao Dingshan was surprised at his obedience. After looking at Wen Sui, he made up his mind and said: "Then the succession ceremony will be scheduled in three days. At that time, we will enshrine the Zen and worship the ancestors. If the nephew agrees, I will wait." You can start preparing now.”
"Trouble Master Uncle and all the immortals." Feng Shi nodded and said.
When the two were talking, Zhao Hui stood beside Wen Sui, immersed in the loss of her mentor's ascent, so she never saw Feng Shijing's gloomy gaze like Wen Sui.
Cui You's ascension made everyone in the sect busy with the handover of the sect leader, so no one has time to care about whether Chi Shen and Zhao Hui are still in confinement.
But this day, Zhaohui was sitting under the osmanthus tree, but he saw Chi Shen running in a hurry, his face was terrified and anxious, and when he saw Zhaohui, he shouted:
"Uncle, my mentor is gone!"
Zhaohui stood up abruptly, and took Chi Shen to Yuandu Dongtian without asking any questions.
The next day was the succession ceremony, but Feng Shi was nowhere to be seen at this time. With such a monstrous event, Wen Sui and Mao Dingshan should be most worried!
When she and Chi Shen rushed to the outside of the hall, Mao Dingshan's voice was undeniably firm, and he said: "Nephew Wen, don't make excuses anymore, you are also the head of the sect, and you belong to the Taiyan Jiuxuan lineage, and now you are sealed off If you are not here, who else can be more justified than you?
"Tomorrow is the succession ceremony, and the invitations I sent have already been sent out. If no one is there when offering sacrifices to the ancestors, wouldn't the sects all over the world laugh at me, Zhaoyan, nephew Wen? This is a last resort. !"
After Mao Dingshan finished speaking, other voices echoed, Wen Sui stood among the crowd with a gloomy face, where was his usual composure and composure.
Zhaohui stood blankly at the door, watching the senior sister respond to the matter amidst all the urging voices, but she firmly refused to agree to take over as head, only saying that she could not disobey the master's order, so she could only take over temporarily.All the immortals breathed a sigh of relief, but no one could understand that Wen Sui's heart was full of worries for his junior.
Just like the day when Cui You was promoted, no one could understand Zhaohui's feeling of helplessness.
……
It has been more than [-] years since Feng Shi went away, Wen Sui took over the head of the sect in a state of anxiety, with Mao Dingshan as his assistant, nothing went wrong.
As for why Wen Sui was the interim head, and what happened in it, the other nine sects of the orthodox sects all kept silent, thinking it was Zhaoyan's internal affairs and did not dare to intervene in it.Only Yixuanjianzong asked a few more questions, but in the end Mao Dingshan stopped him with a word.
As far as Yu Zhaohui is concerned, the days seem to have not changed much, but because her cultivation base has gradually increased, others no longer treat her as a child.
She still likes to climb up the laurel tree in front of the house in the dead of night.Everything responds to the vicissitudes of life, only Haixing remains the same.Hai Qing, Hai Qing, she may have started to like this dao name, so she refuses to let others call her by her first and last name, and only let others call her by this name.
Zhao Hui looked carefully, but couldn't see the outline of Tianmen from the Haixing star. She was thinking, where will the master go after ascending from Tianmen? Will the laws of heaven and fate still trap him?Where did the senior brother go, and why did he not return for so long?
Brighter and brighter stars are reflected in her eyes, and the brilliant brilliance draws a long tail on the star.
Zhaohui was slightly stunned, but the long tail became more and more obvious. The stars that existed since the establishment of the Three Thousand Worlds, just today, fell downwards in her horrified eyes until they disappeared at the end of the night.
……
Hai star has fallen!
What followed was chaos.
The sky sea in the south of the world boiled endlessly, and the boundless sea water seemed to be boiled, and the deep cracks in the dome began to be exposed. Without the obstruction of the sky sea, the violent Yuan Qi from outside the world swept in, causing countless deaths and injuries in the entire south land, and thousands of living beings were buried in the deep sea. The rift absorbs the outside world, and then shatters into the void.
The demon Taoist monks in Jingshan Ghost Domain fled in panic because of this, and even crossed the territory set by the Taiyi Golden Immortal back then.The evil cultivators who flooded into the Northland began to slaughter innocent people, using the nearby sects as sacrifices for human sacrifices, and took advantage of the coming catastrophe without any scruples to carry out their evil intentions.
And the Mo Yuan under the Suppressing Void Sect also changed frequently, so that in just three months, hundreds of letters asking for help were sent to the two great immortal sects.
Junling Cave, Quanyu Palace.
Wen Sui summoned all the immortals here, with his mind set, and said: "Yaori Island sent a letter to ask for help, the three Sun Palace clans suffered heavy losses, Emperor Hengxu's eldest son and eldest daughter both fell, and the six-winged blue bird clan Fanyuan wise man was reincarnated after a serious injury. , the patriarch of the Jinyu Dapeng clan also died. Now the Sun Palace alone cannot stop the fall of Tianhai!"
All the immortals looked at each other, and they all saw the shock in each other's eyes.
The fall of four immortal-level powerhouses shows how terrifying the power of this catastrophe is!
He waited for his heart to be heavy, and at this moment he shouted in unison: "But listen to the orders of the head immortal!"
Wen Sui Surong nodded, and said in a deep voice: "The change of Tianhai is not unrelated to the fall of the Hai star. At that time, I will go south with the master Shi of the Taiyuan Taoist sect to see how to prevent this catastrophe. Xi and Liang, two sword celestial beings from South Tianhai Jie, will definitely help me, so you don't have to worry too much.
"As for the Suppressing Void Sect's request for help, it is necessary to ask my uncle and junior brother Han to help me."
Mao Dingshan responded with a nod of his own, and made a slight gesture with his disciple Han Xuzheng, saying: "Please rest assured, the master, I, the master and the apprentice, will do our best."
"The demon cultivators from Jingshan Ghost Domain came out in full force, causing much unrest in the Northland. I asked the two junior sisters, Zhang Xianren and Zhu Xianren, to take action on their behalf." Once the words were settled, Wen Sui had already made another arrangement. .
Zhang Yun and Zhu Miaoyun responded together, with solemn expressions.
"As for the affairs of the sect, I will leave them to Nephew Qin to handle."
After that, Wen Sui ordered a few more people to go to Tianhai with her to investigate the situation. All the immortals were convinced of her, so they had no objection to this.
And when all the immortals left, a figure rushed out from the inner hall and knelt down in front of Wen Sui.
With a determined gaze, Zhaohui shouted: "Senior Sister, I want to go to Tianhai with you!"
Wen Sui, who had always been obedient to her, changed his face at this moment, and scolded sharply: "The catastrophe is rising, how can you allow you to mess around here, why don't you quickly back down!"
"Senior Sister!" Zhao Hui grabbed her by the hem of the clothes, his eyes were full of pleading, "You let me go, you let me go!"
Seeing Wen Sui's delay in responding, Zhao Hui felt aggrieved, and the heart that had been hanging all this time smashed her rationality to pieces.
"The master is gone, and the brother has gone somewhere, do you want to leave me here alone?"
Wen Sui was startled, bent down to hold her hand, and his expression gradually eased.The two looked at each other, but no matter how hard Zhao Hui begged, Wen Sui never let go of his promise.
Hundreds of years have passed since then, but Zhaohui has never seen her senior sister again.
Only when the world is settled and all the common people are overjoyed at being reborn after the catastrophe, the news that Wen Sui ruined the Dao and turned into a Sanxian, it was like a blow to the head that knocked her heart out.
I see thousands of people rejoicing to have a future, but I am the only one who weeps because your path is ruined.
This is a despicable selfishness that I dare not speak out under the righteousness praised by the world.
Zhaohui stood in front of the osmanthus tree in a daze, watching Haixing slowly rise into the night sky.Endless unwillingness welled up in her heart, and she slapped the tree with her palm, causing the fire to climb up.
When Cui You brought her back to the Zongmen, he planted this osmanthus tree in front of the house for her, but now it has been burned, and it is no longer there.
In the face of the apocalypse, she felt powerless because of her weakness, so she could only use the way of destroying herself to try to vent the grief and anger in her heart.
But when Feng Shi saw this scene, he could only be silent.
"Why did you come back at this time?" Zhaohui lowered his head and refused to look at him, and asked himself, "Forget it, you never said anything."
She walked straight past Feng Shijing, so she never saw the complex scrutiny in Feng Shijing's eyes.
After Zhaohui left, he smiled miserably, stepped into the ashes of the osmanthus tree alone, and broke off the last living branch with his own hands.
"The catastrophe of heaven and earth begins today...it begins with me!"
……
Mao Dingshan's voice was as majestic as before, which made Zhaohui very irritable.
She knelt with the disciples of Taiyan Jiuxuan lineage, behind him was Chi Shen with a serious face, and Immortal Qin stood on a high place, personally handing over the great seal to the successor head.
All the immortals felt deeply at ease because the head of the sect returned, as if after the end of the thousand sails, everything would be as before.
After three kneelings and nine knocks, Zhaohui stood among the disciples bored, small, new grass sprouts emerged from the cracks in the bricks and stones at her feet.
She thought sadly that it was another spring. (end of this chapter)
