In that distant little black house

As practitioners of the Dao, firstly, the most important thing is cultivation, and secondly, the most important thing is inheritance.

Because no one knows whether his disciple's achievements will surpass him in the future, and after surpassing, whether he will give him a hand on the road to immortality.

It is also because of this that Zhang Jingmo attaches great importance to the matter of accepting disciples.His first and second apprentices were all highly talented disciples. After being accepted by Zhang Jingmo, they quickly showed their talents in cultivation.

As a master, Zhang Jingmo is also talented, but his talent is not in cultivation, but in alchemy.

A cultivator at the Golden Core stage can refine the elixir of the Nascent Soul stage, which proves Zhang Jingmo's talent.Some people, even if they come back more than 120 times, they can’t do what they can’t do.Just like for Zhang Jingmo, even if he was reborn more than 120 times, he failed to break the demonic barrier in his heart.

Bai Lingxiao is older than Zhang Jingmo, but he has yet to accept a single disciple.His personality is colder than Zhang Jingmo's, and he concentrates on kendo and rarely gets distracted by foreign affairs.

It is also because of this that he has made rapid progress and his swordsmanship is superb, almost unmatched by anyone.

Huo Rong Dan is very important to Bai Lingxiao, which is why he agreed to Zhang Jingmo's request.

Lu Guijiu's ability to learn swordsmanship under Bai Lingxiao's sect was, in other people's eyes, a very enviable thing - of course, Lu Guijiu himself obviously didn't think so.

Zhang Jingmo was not afraid that Lu Guijiu would convert to his sect in the past ten years. He treated Lu Guijiu much worse than now, and Lu Guijiu never left him.

Now he wants to give Lu Guijiu the best, he can't believe that Lu Guijiu was abducted by Bai Lingxiao in just ten years.

Bai Lingxiao seemed to see what Zhang Jingmo was thinking, he squinted his eyes, and took another sip of his wine: "Junior Brother, how about this..."

Before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by Zhang Jingmo. Zhang Jingmo said with a smile: "Brother, I won't say more about this apprentice, and I won't agree to your request."

Bai Lingxiao sighed softly. This was the first time he had the idea of ​​taking in an apprentice. After all, he had never seen a third-level evildoer in the six-year-old Qi refining period. He had traveled to the mainland for so long.

Zhang Jingmo said: "I hope senior brother will keep it a secret." He doesn't want Lu Guijiu to attract too much attention for the time being.

Bai Lingxiao nodded: "I know this, but are you planning to go out to find elixir recently?"

Zhang Jingmo responded.

Bai Lingxiao said: "It's not necessary. I have already found almost the same elixir of Huo Rong Pill, but I'm missing a fire seed called Zhu Yan. I've already sent people around to inquire..."

Zhang Jingmo said: "Brother, I know where Zhu Yan is."

There was a little surprise in Bai Lingxiao's eyes.

Zhang Jingmo said: "I need some time to get the fire, so during this time, I will trouble you to take care of my apprentice."

Bai Lingxiao would not refuse. Although he wanted Zhang Jingmo to make alchemy, he was not an unreasonable person.Most of the medicinal materials have already been prepared, and only Zhu Yan's kindling is left.

Now that Zhang Jingmo told him that the tinder was found, Bai Lingxiao couldn't help but be happy.

Bai Lingxiao asked Zhang Jingmo again if he needed his help, but Zhang Jingmo declined.When he was looking for Zhu Yan Tinder, he also wanted to find some other things, so it was inconvenient for Bai Lingxiao to go with him.

Although with Zhang Jingmo's current level of cultivation, going to those places is somewhat dangerous, but danger and benefits have always coexisted, and there are so many things that are easy to get in the world.

After Zhang Jingmo and Bai Lingxiao drank the wine in the jug, Zhang Jingmo got up and said goodbye.

Bai Lingxiao watched Zhang Jingmo leave, and the indifferent expression returned to his face.

Back in the mansion, Zhang Jingmo was about to enter the alchemy room, but saw Qingfeng hurriedly looking for him. When he saw him, he knelt down and shouted: "The mansion master is not good! Something happened to Master Lu!"

Zhang Jingmo wondered in his heart that he had only been out for such a short while, what kind of trouble could Lu Guijiu cause, and said, "What's the matter?"

Qingfeng hurriedly told what happened just now.

It turned out that a Taoist cultivator from Lingxu Sect came to Zhang Jingmo's mansion to receive the elixir, and happened to bring his apprentice with him.

The disciple of the Taoist happened to be a seven-year-old girl, about the same age as Lu Guijiu, and more lively, so when he saw Lu Guijiu, he invited him to play with him.

Lu Guijiu naturally ignored it, and turned around to leave after giving the elixir.

Who would have thought that the girl was usually pampered by her master and had never been bullied like this. When she saw Lu Guijiu, she ignored him, so she wanted to cast a spell to evil Lu Guijiu.

Lu Guijiu had never been the kind of person who was bullied even in front of him and would endure it. When he was casting a spell on a girl, he would rush towards her and immediately throw the girl to the ground—if that was the case, then This incident is also a trivial matter, but Lu Guijiu seemed to be holding back the evil fire that finally broke out. He took out a dagger directly from the Sumeru ring Zhang Jingmo gave him, and pointed it at the girl. He stabbed several times.

If the girl's master hadn't arrived in time, the girl's life might have been lost.

Qingfeng spoke tremblingly, for fear that Zhang Jingmo would punish him for this.

After hearing this, Zhang Jingmo asked, "Where are they now?"

Qingfeng said: "In the hall... that fairy teacher said... I will wait for you to come back to solve it."

Zhang Jingmo hummed lightly, and told Qingfeng to go down, while he walked towards the hall.

Before entering the hall, he heard the girl crying and yelling sharply. Zhang Jingmo, with his eyesight and ears, heard the girl shouting: "You uneducated little bastard, I tell you to hit me! I tell you to hit me!"

Zhang Jingmo's complexion remained unchanged, but his eyes instantly turned cold.

After entering the hall, Zhang Jingmo saw Lu Guijiu who was tied up.

Lu Guijiu has lived at home for four years and in the Lingxu Sect for two years, and he has never been wronged like this - he is tightly bound by a rope, while the scolding girl kept kicking him. body.There were already bruises on his face, but his teeth were clenched tightly, and he refused to utter a word of begging for mercy.

Seeing Zhang Jingmo coming, the girl's master yelled, "Su Zhi, stop now!"

The girl glared at Lu Guijiu, then kicked him a few times before stopping.

The Taoist said slowly: "Elder Zhang, long time no see."

Zhang Jingmo glanced at the Taoist, and after thinking for a long time, he remembered the name of this person. He wondered if his temper was too good, so that people would think that he would not be angry.

Dao Ren said: "It's okay for children to fight and fight, but it's not good if they almost hurt their lives, but I think you, Elder Zhang, are not very good at teaching."

Zhang Jingmo said slowly: "Lu Guijiu, do you know your mistake?"

Lu Guijiu originally looked at Zhang Jingmo expectantly, but after hearing Zhang Jingmo's words, he showed an expression of disbelief. He didn't seem to expect that Zhang Jingmo would let him admit his mistake.

Zhang Jingmo said: "Do you know your mistake?"

Lu Guijiu coughed up a few traces of blood, he said in a hoarse voice, "Your apprentice is right!"

Zhang Jingmo stepped forward a few steps, picked up Lu Guijiu who was lying on the ground, and said coldly, "You still don't know what's wrong?"

Lu Guijiu's eyes weren't red this time, but he just looked at Zhang Jingmo with extremely aggrieved eyes.

Zhang Jingmo said: "Do you still remember what my teacher told you?" While talking, he casually tore off the rope that tied Lu Guijiu.

Lu Guijiu lowered his head and refused to speak.

Zhang Jingmo's complexion became colder.

Seeing the embarrassing situation, the Taoist wanted to smooth things over, and said, "Elder Zhang..." He shut up after saying three words, because the way Zhang Jingmo looked at him was ten times colder than the way he looked at Lu Guijiu. .

In the confrontation between master and apprentice, Zhang Jingmo seemed to have won in the end, because Lu Guijiu apologized with sobs, "I know I was wrong."

Zhang Jingmo's breath eased, and he said, "Where did you go wrong?"

Lu Guijiu burst into tears and said, "I, I shouldn't bully people."

Zhang Jingmo's expression did not become gentle because of this, but became more cold and hard. He looked at Lu Guijiu and said two words: "Idiot."

Lu Guijiu looked at Zhang Jingmo dully, not understanding why he was scolded by his master after he had already apologized.

Zhang Jingmo stretched out his hand and gently stroked the bruise on Lu Guijiu's face, and saw that the skin instantly returned to its original shape. He said, "Bullying people? How can there be bullying in this world? I told you before, this world of comprehension Look, you are not strong enough, and you dare to provoke someone who is stronger than you. If I were not here, wouldn't you just lose your life today?" He didn't want to teach Lu Guijiu to act on his own will, but to be brave. Unsuspecting people.

Zhang Jingmo said again: "If I were to be a teacher today, if I was abused by that girl, I would still smile at her."

Lu Guijiu stared blankly at Zhang Jingmo.

Zhang Jingmo said coldly: "Pamper her, pamper her, and when the time comes, completely destroy her."

The Taoist thought that Zhang Jingmo would reprimand Lu Guijiu, but he didn't expect that he would teach Lu Guijiu to change his style of painting...

When Zhang Jingmo said this, he laughed again, and he said: "Of course, if you are strong enough, you can treat what I said as nonsense, because—" he drew his voice, using his empty penis With a quick grab, he grabbed the girl who was standing next to the Taoist into his hands, "Because you can kill her easily."

Lu Guijiu was stunned.

The girl screamed and struggled, the Taoist was stunned for a moment, and then angrily shouted: "Put down my apprentice!"

Zhang Jingmo smiled contemptuously, and with a slight force on his palm, the girl raised her voice in an instant, and then fell into a coma.

The Taoist was extremely angry, picked up the magic weapon, and rushed towards Zhang Jingmo!
