You cultivate immortality, I cultivate merit

Master Pingyang looked at Shi Zelan and sighed, "I'm hiding from you because I don't want to tell you about Lin Zi and the others."

Shi Zelan looked at him and said, "Little Master, are you and Master worried that I will not follow the arrangements of the Governor's Hall and go to rescue Lin Zi and the others on my own?"

Master Pingyang was silent for a while, then nodded silently and said, "Can you?"

“Not now.

The governor should arrange people to provide support. I won't cause trouble at this time.

Lin Zi and the others will surely be able to turn danger into safety. I can wait for the news that they are safe."

Master Pingyang looked at the expression on Shi Zelan's face and reminded her, "Sister Lan, don't lead others to act impulsively."

"I will not."

On the second day, when Shi Zelan was on patrol, he received news that Shi Xiaoliu had returned to the sect and had something to say.

She replied, saying that she would go talk to Shi Xiaoliu as soon as she finished her patrol.

What happened on this day happened to be much more than usual, and they found traces of demons in some corners.

The people from the Dharma Hall came over and checked carefully, and found out that it was the work of the same demon, so Shi Zelan and his group did not let their guard down.

After dark, when another team came to take over, Shi Zelan talked about these things very seriously with the team leader.

When Shi Zelan returned to the cave, Shi Xiaoliu was waiting outside her cave door.

When Shi Zelan saw Shi Xiaoliu, she looked at him carefully and said with relief, "Xiaoliu, you are back safely."

Shi Xiaoliu followed Shi Zelan into her cave, and after carefully looking around, he said to you, Shi Zelan: "Can you still recite the Taoist Heart Purification Mantra?"

"Yes."

"Then can you recite the Buddhist mantra of purification?"

Shi Zelan looked up at Shi Xiaoliu in surprise: "Yes, I will.

I remember reciting it to you.”

Shi Xiaoliu whispered, "Now there are demons outside of Jiuzhou, and they use some magic to confuse people's minds."

"The Buddhist mantra of purifying the mind cannot deal with demons?"

"It's not that the Buddhist Heart Purification Mantra can't deal with demons, but the Buddhists are compassionate and the effects are too slow to show."

"I understand. I will remember the Taoist Heart Purification Mantra."

"You'll have to act according to circumstances. Perhaps the demon you encounter is obeying the Buddhist mantra of purification."

Shi Zelan saw the fatigue in his eyes and whispered, "Is the situation outside Jiuzhou a little out of control?"

Shi Xiaoliu nodded: "Yes.

I originally thought that the situation outside Kyushu was better, but after going out, I found that their situation was much worse than ours."

Shi Zelan was silent for a while, then told Shi Xiaoliu that a demon had appeared outside the sect.

"Is that so? Then our sect can't spare any manpower to leave Jiuzhou?"

Shi Zelan nodded silently and said, "We are in the light, and the demons are in the dark.

As for whether or not to support the sects outside of Jiuzhou, it depends on the sect’s decision.”

Shi Xiaoliu looked at Shi Zelan and smiled again: "We have lived a carefree life for so many years, now it's time to contribute."

Shi Zelan told him that she might have to lead the team out of the sect to support nearby disciples.

Later, the governor added six more people to Shi Zelan's patrol team.

After Shi Zelan asked Shi Shitou and his group for their opinions, she arranged for Shi Shitou to be the deputy captain of the patrol team.

Shi Zelan told Shi Shitou privately that she would most likely lead a team to support fellow disciples who had sent out distress signals nearby.

After hearing her words, Shi Shitou said seriously, "Senior Sister, when something happens, I should bring people to support."

Shi Zelan looked at him and shook her head: "My cultivation is higher than yours. Even if I encounter a Yuanying-level monster, I can handle it." "Senior sister, it's not easy to fight against a higher level. I think I can do it."

Shi Zelan looked at him and said, "We will follow the arrangements of the Governor Hall."

That night, Shi Zelan received news that Shi Xiaoliu was leaving. When she rushed over, she just saw Shi Xiaoliu boarding the flying boat.

Shi Zelan waved to Shi Xiaoliu on the flying boat. At this time, she did not think that they would be separated for several years.

Shi Xiaoliu left, and Shi Zelan was ready to fight at any time, but ended up waiting for the injured Xia Yu.

Shi Zelan rushed to the medicine pavilion, but was stopped by the new junior sister there.

"Master Zelan, Senior Brother Yu is here so it's inconvenient to see you."

Shi Zelan stopped in surprise and looked at the blooming little white flower. She indeed looked much more delicate than her former junior sister.

Shi Zelan did not stop and continued walking forward until she reached outside the treatment room, where she reached out and knocked on the door.

"Sister Lan, come in."

When Shi Zelan heard Xia Yu's clear voice, she reached out and pushed the door open, then quickly closed it.

The junior sister was standing at the door with a red face and tears in her eyes. Shi Zelan walked in and saw Xia Yu meditating.

"Where is the injury?"

Xia Yu motioned Shi Zelan to sit down and told her, "I'm not seriously injured, but Senior Brother asked me to pretend to be seriously injured.

He wants to use my illness as an excuse to check on some of the people and things in the pharmacy."

Shi Zelan listened to Xia Yu's words, nodded, and said with a smile: "Did you hurt your throat?"

Xia Yu shook her head and whispered, "Why do you care about my throat problem?"

"The little sister in the medicine pavilion admires you very much, did you know that?"

Xia Yu widened her eyes and looked at the serious expression on Shi Zelan's face.

He quickly shook his head: "I will tell my senior brother that I don't want to recuperate in the medicine pavilion.

Sister Lan, please ask my senior brother to come over for me."

"Wait a while, at least until the little sister outside the door leaves."

Xia Yu frowned and said to Shi Zelan, “They are becoming less picky when it comes to accepting female disciples in the Medicine Pavilion, and one is worse than the other.

The junior sister in the past was a little willful, but she was more pleasing to the eye.

This little sister in front of me seems to have grown up in water, and she looks like she is about to cry at any time and anywhere. "

Shi Zelan listened to his words and looked at him deeply: "If Wanyu didn't like to cry when she was young, would you insist on your engagement?"

Xia Yu looked at Shi Zelan in surprise: "You..."

He quickly stopped talking and told Shi Zelan, "Why did you mention Wanyu again?

Have you seen her recently?"

Shi Zelan shook her head: "I haven't seen Wanyu for a long time, but the appearance of Junior Sister just now reminded me of something."

"whats the matter?"

"If your future Taoist partner is a crying beauty, I won't have much contact with you."

Xia Yu looked at her with an angry expression on her face: "Sister Lan, I have never been a frivolous person, and I have no interest in being anyone's hero."

Shi Zelan looked at him with a smile and was about to speak when she heard sobbing voices coming from outside.

"Woo, woo, woo, Senior Brother, I can't stop Master Zelan, she must squeeze in.

Wuu, wuu, wuu, Senior Brother, Senior Brother Yu was injured so badly, now, wuu, wuu, wuu. "

Shi Zelan looked at Xia Yu with sympathy: "You have encountered the peach blossom curse." (End of this chapter)
