In that distant little black house

Why Zhang Jingmo treats Lu Guijiu so well has always been a mystery in Lu Shu's mind.

There are too many secrets in Zhang Jingmo, after reading it for so long, even Lu Shu couldn't understand it.But from Zhang Jingmo's words and deeds, Lu Shu got a not-so-good conclusion—since he can know so many genius treasures, that Zhang Jingmo is obviously not an ordinary cultivator. A reincarnated ancient power.

Thinking about it this way, this matter became more complicated. Why would an ancient power with countless rare treasures be so kind to Lu Guijiu?It's just that I can't wait to hold all the good things in front of Lu Guijiu, so much so that I don't hesitate to sacrifice my life.People don't get up early without profit, so Lu Shu's heart has always been uneasy. He doesn't understand Zhang Jingmo's ultimate goal, what exactly he wants to get from Lu Guijiu.

At this time, the conversation between Zhang Jingmo and Ao Mian finally resolved Lu Shu's doubts. When he heard Zhang Jingmo himself say that he wanted to use Lu Guijiu, he felt relieved—there really is no reason in this world. Love.

Zhang Jingmo didn't know what he said, and Lu Shu had already heard it. Seeing Lu Guijiu waking up in a daze, he reached out and touched Lu Guijiu's head.

Lu Guijiu's soul was recovered, but he was still very tired. He opened his eyes and heard Zhang Jingmo calling him "good boy", his heart trembled slightly, and he rubbed lightly on Zhang Jingmo's hand reflexively. rub.

Zhang Jingmo looked at Lu Guijiu's movement that resembled a black dragon, couldn't help but smiled, and said, "How old are you?"

Lu Guijiu snorted twice and closed his eyes again.

Zhang Jingmo didn't call him again, and simply went around to pick some elixir.

Since he was leaving this place, he had to take all the things he should bring with him. The spiritual plants around him were all of great value outside.Zhang Jingmo has always been a very frugal person, so he will definitely not let these treasures go.

Lu Guijiu was lying on the meadow basking in the sun, listening to Zhang Jingmo's walking not far away, what he was thinking about...why his master knew what he was thinking, but still didn't drive him away.

Because you can't bear it?Or maybe it's really like Lu Shu said...

Lu Shu's voice sounded coolly in Lu Guijiu's mind, and he didn't speak by himself, but simulated the previous conversation between Ao Mian and Zhang Jingmo.

Lu Guijiu closed his eyes and listened, but there was no reaction after listening, Lu Shu asked strangely: "Aren't you afraid?"

Lu Guijiu said lazily, "What are you afraid of?"

Lu Shu said: "Your master obviously wants to use you, aren't you curious, what exactly is he going to use you for?"

Lu Guijiu said, "What can you do?"

Lu Shu hated iron but said: "Your aptitude is against the sky. If your master is really a reincarnated cultivator, he will naturally take a fancy to your body."

After Lu Guijiu listened to it, he didn't speak for a long time. Just when Lu Shu thought he had figured it out, he said, "That's not bad, either."

Lu Shu said angrily: "Are you crazy? Is this not bad?"

Lu Guijiu murmured: "Master's soul, my body...does that mean that we will never be separated."

Lu Shu: "..." This baby is really hopeless.

After Lu Guijiu said this, he covered his eyes with his hands, sighed softly, and said: "If it is because of this reason that Master will not leave me, I can... accept it."

Lu Shu: "...you are crazy." He found that he could no longer look at Lu Guijiu according to common sense, because no matter what happened, as long as he got involved with Zhang Jingmo, Lu Guijiu would lose his mind.

Lu Guijiu laughed when he heard this sentence, "I've been crazy for a long time." To be able to desire his master is not crazy, but what else.

After Zhang Jingmo collected the herbs, he just returned to Lu Guijiu when he saw Lu Guijiu opened his eyes, sat up and hugged his waist.

Zhang Jingmo didn't think much about it, he thought it was Lu Guijiu's discomfort after the fusion of his soul, he touched Lu Guijiu's forehead again, and asked, "What's wrong?"

Lu Guijiu said in a muffled voice, "It's just a little uncomfortable."

Zhang Jingmo said: "Where is it uncomfortable?"

Lu Guijiu couldn't say anything, he just hummed.

Seeing Lu Guijiu's appearance, Zhang Jingmo probably guessed that Lu Guijiu was trying to act like a baby, and he said helplessly, "How old is he, he still looks like this."

Lu Guijiu stopped talking.He buried his face in Zhang Jingmo's waist, sniffing the smell that belonged to his master, and was unwilling to move away for a moment.

Zhang Jingmo didn't move either. He knew that Lu Guijiu must have suffered a lot in that realm for the past hundred years, so now that he finally came out, he let him go.

Lu Guijiu hugged him for a long time before letting go reluctantly. He raised his head and asked, "Master, shall we go back to Lingxu Sect next?"

Zhang Jingmo said yes.

Lu Guijiu frowned and said: "But ten years have passed, Tian Lu must have left the customs... Would it be too dangerous to go back at this time?"

Zhang Jingmo said: "That's right, so we can't go back in an open and honest manner." In fact, if Yu Fen and Wu Curao were not in the sect, he might not have gone back, but after much deliberation, he was worried about Fen and that fox , So I planned to go back privately.

Lu Guijiu said, "Shall we go back quietly?"

Zhang Jingmo nodded: "Ask Yu Fen and the others to come out and meet me, and we will leave."

When Lu Guijiu heard this, he was very happy. His master didn't want to keep him in Lingxu Sect, but included him in future plans.

The trip to the snow mountain was over, and it was one step closer to the demon invasion. At this time, a small part of the formation protecting the mainland had been damaged. Zhang Jingmo's next plan was to go to the place where the formation was damaged.

Originally, Zhang Jingmo planned to go alone, but Lu Guijiu had already formed a pill, and he had formed a ten-turn magic pill. In this case, bringing him can be regarded as a help.

After Lu Guijiu recovered for a few more days, Zhang Jingmo and Lu Guijiu set off to leave the snow mountain together.

After Zhu Feng's tomb sank, the wind on the snow-capped mountains became stronger. Before, he could grit his teeth and survive for a few days without spiritual power. Now, without spiritual power to protect his body, he might be torn into pieces in a short while.

Fortunately, Zhang Jingmo and Lu Guijiu were both at their peak, and going down the mountain was easier than going up, so it only took half a year to leave the snow mountain.

And because of this experience, Lu Guijiu's attachment to Zhang Jingmo has become morbid.

He knew that Zhang Jingmo wanted to use him, but he didn't care, Zhang Jingmo also knew what he thought about him, and Zhang Jingmo didn't seem to care...

Lu Shu talked and persuaded, but in the end he quietly shut up, just like what he said before, Lu Guijiu...is indeed crazy.

Zhang Jingmo was in a happy mood, and he didn't notice any abnormalities in Lu Guijiu's body. He just felt that Lu Guijiu was becoming more clingy, as if he refused to leave his side for a moment.

Although Zhang Jingmo was not used to it at first, he got used to it after being grinded by Lu Guijiu. As a result, after coming down from the snow mountain, the relationship between the master and the apprentice was a step closer than before going up the mountain.

Leaving the snow-capped mountains, we embarked on the return journey.

In fact, Zhang Jingmo had been thinking about whether to ask Ao Mian to help him kill Tianlu, but after thinking about it again and again, he still didn't speak.

Now Tianlu still has some effect...for the time being, he can't die.

The two traveled for a few more months, and finally returned to the vicinity of Lingxu Sect.

To be on the safe side, both Zhang Jingmo and Lu Guijiu changed their looks, and did not join the sect, but stayed not far from the Lingxu sect, and released a paper crane during the night to send the news of his return to the Yu Fen and others.

Yu Fen, who was in the faction, received the news, so he went out of the sect one night to conceal himself, and went to the place where Zhang Jingmo and Lu Guijiu were.

When he saw Zhang Jingmo and Lu Guijiu, his eyes widened, he pointed at Lu Guijiu and said you, you, you.

Zhang Jingmo naturally knew why Yu Fen was surprised, he smiled and said, "How?"

"Is your apprentice a monster?" After holding back for a long time, Yu Fen stared at Lu Guijiu as if he was looking at some monster.

Zhang Jingmo didn't know what Yu Fen was thinking at this time, a cultivator who had formed an alchemy before he was three hundred years old, would shock everyone's jaws wherever he put it.

He smiled and said, "How? But remember how you persuaded me back then?"

Hearing this, Yu Fen beat his chest and stamped his feet: "My eyes are really blind... Ahhh, if I knew it, I would have snatched this apprentice away!"

Zhang Jingmo laughed out loud, he knew that Lu Guijiu would make him look good in front of his old man, but he didn't expect it to feel so pleasant.

After envying him, Yu Fen told Zhang Jingmo about what happened to the Lingxu Sect in recent years. Zhang Jingmo listened carefully and asked questions from time to time.

Generally speaking, nothing major has happened to the Lingxu faction in the past ten years, and strange spirit beasts still come out of the forbidden area from time to time, but generally speaking, this secret is still covered up.

But these are temporary measures, and it won't be too long to hide this matter.

After Yu Fen finished talking about these trivial matters, he hesitated for a moment, and said: "Three years ago, Tianlu left the customs."

Zhang Jingmo's expression froze, knowing that the business was coming.

Yu Fen said: "As soon as he left the customs, he knew about Tian Wan being beheaded by you, and he was furious immediately, and came to Lingxu to send important people."

Zhang Jingmo said: "How?"

Yu Fen said: "Tsk, what else can I do, not only being beaten back by Bai Lingxiao, but also your senior brother is also very violent... The head is still negotiating with Tianlu, so he rushed up with a sword .”

Zhang Jingmo laughed and said, "That's the nature of him."

Yu Fen said again: "But he also has the capital to force Tianlu back to Kuchan Valley."

When Zhang Jingmo heard this, the smile on his face became stronger. Bai Lingxiao conceived a baby earlier than Tianlu. If it was only about strength, he would be much stronger than Tianlu. It is by no means an easy task for time to kill the other party.

After Zhang Jingmo heard Yu Fen talk about others, he suddenly said, "After talking about others, tell me about yourself?"

Yu Fen said: "I have nothing to say, isn't it still the same."

Zhang Jingmo glanced at Yu Fen up and down, and said, "Where's your fox?"

Yu Fen did not expect Zhang Jingmo to ask about his pet, he said: "Fox? That white fox?"

Zhang Jingmo said: "Yes."

Yu Fen scratched his head when he heard this, and said, "Just keep it like this."

Zhang Jingmo said: "No moths have emerged?"

Yu Fen asked suspiciously: "Isn't it just an ordinary fox, not even a spirit beast, what kind of moth can it produce?"

Hearing Yu Fen's words, Zhang Jingmo couldn't help showing a subtle expression.

Yu Fen continued to talk, he said: "What's strange about it, it seems to be in heat recently, come to rub against me every day, and ask a female fox to give it to him, but he refuses to take it."

Zhang Jingmo couldn't hold back anymore, and burst out laughing.

Yu Fen didn't understand why Zhang Jingmo was smiling so happily, he said, "Why are you laughing, isn't it normal for this fox to be in heat?"

Zhang Jingmo thought in his heart why he didn't laugh!He can still recall the disdain and indifference in the eyes of the big white fox monster who looked at him back then. How could he be unhappy that the big monster back then has become a pet that can't be transformed into a pet now?

Yu Fen didn't understand why Zhang Jingmo was so happy. He said, "Back then you were so angry at me for raising a white fox. I was a little puzzled. Thinking about it now, could it be that you thought there was something strange about that white fox?"

Zhang Jingmo nodded: "I asked someone to do a fortune telling."

Yu Fen said: "Foretelling is inaccurate, I even found someone to do it for your apprentice back then." After he finished speaking, he muttered, "It also cost me a high-grade spirit stone."

Zhang Jingmo said: "The hexagram said that you and the white fox have a conflict of fate, and nothing good will happen when you meet, that's why I reacted so strongly back then."

Yu Fen sighed: "Forget it, don't mention him, the left and right are just foxes, tell me, what do you plan to do in the future?" With Tianlu here, the Lingxu Sect cannot return.

Zhang Jingmo said: "I might go to the southwest."

Yu Fen said, "To the southwest? What are you going to do?"

Zhang Jingmo said: "Go get some things."

Yu Fen knew that Zhang Jingmo always had his own ideas in his heart, so he didn't ask any more questions, he just said: "Well, you must be careful yourself."

When Zhang Jingmo heard that nothing that shouldn't have happened to Yu Fen and Baihu, his mood immediately improved. He said, "I know, I came here specially this time, and I don't know when we will meet next time." .”

Yu Fen sighed, "You haven't heard of it since you accepted this apprentice. I'm so free, so I might as well accept an apprentice to play with."

Zhang Jingmo said: "Not bad."

The two chatted for a while, and Yu Fen got up to leave.

Zhang Jingmo didn't hold back either, he toasted Yu Fen's last glass of wine, and then watched Yu Fen leave.

After Yu Fen left, Zhang Jingmo turned his head and glanced at Lu Guijiu who had been standing aside, not saying much: "Go down and rest first, I'll wait for your uncle."

Lu Guijiu said suddenly: "Master, why did you accept me back then."

Zhang Jingmo knocked on the table with his wine glass, he was a little indifferent to Lu Guijiu's question, he said: "Probably because you are small and cute."

Lu Guijiu pursed his lips when he heard the words, Zhang Jingmo's answer was obviously not the truth.

Zhang Jingmo looked up at Lu Guijiu, and said again: "Go down."

Lu Guijiu said nothing more, got up and walked out of the house.

Zhang Jingmo looked at Lu Guijiu's back, and put down the wine glass in his hand again.

Bai Lingxiao arrived at dawn.

The first thing he said when he saw Zhang Jingmo was: "I'll kill him."

Zhang Jingmo naturally knew who Bai Lingxiao wanted to kill, he shook his head: "No rush."

"Not in a hurry?" Bai Lingxiao's face was ice-cold, obviously not agreeing with Zhang Jingmo's words, he said, "Not in a hurry now, when will it be?"

Zhang Jingmo said: "When Lu Guijiu grows up."

Bai Lingxiao frowned slightly: "Using Tianlu to train him, wouldn't it be too much?"

Zhang Jingmo said lightly: "Lu Guijiu has formed a pill."

Hearing this, Bai Lingxiao's eyes revealed a look of astonishment, forming an alchemy within three hundred years-this kind of thing is enough to make people amazed.

Zhang Jingmo said: "It won't be too long." Li Lu Guijiu's baby, but it's only a few hundred years, and it won't be too late to kill Tianlu by then.

Bai Lingxiao pondered for a moment, as if he was appraising what Zhang Jingmo said, but seeing Zhang Jingmo's face was determined, very sure, he didn't say what he said when it came to his lips.

Is Zhang Jingmo sure?He had to, because if the infant Lu Guijiu couldn't even kill Tianlu, then everything he had done would be in vain.

Because the cultivation of the man in red is far above the foot of the sky.

It can be said that Tianlu is a whetstone left by Zhang Jingmo to Lu Guijiu. He wants to see if this knife is sharp enough.

Bai Lingxiao said: "Wu Curyao is in retreat and cannot come."

Zhang Jingmo nodded: "Tell him for me that the Soul Gathering Wood has been found, so there is no need to worry about Ao Mian."

Bai Lingxiao nodded when he heard the words, he was silent for a while, and then said: "I heard about your second apprentice."

Zhang Jingmo said: "She hasn't returned yet?"

Bai Lingxiao shook his head: "It's just that there is a disciple in the sect who seems to have seen her in the southwest corner..."

Unexpectedly, the place where she was was exactly the same as where Zhang Jingmo was going. When Zhang Jingmo heard this, his face remained unchanged and he said: "Her fate card is not broken, and there is nothing unexpected about it."

Seeing that Zhang Jingmo didn't seem to care too much, Bai Lingxiao stopped talking.

It can be said that among the three disciples, the relationship between Zhang Jingmo and the second disciple is the weakest. After he introduced her to Taoism, she has been traveling all year round, and the time to return to Lingxu Sect is very little.

Whether it was foundation establishment or alchemy formation, Zhang Jingmo hardly asked for help.

It is also because of this that her relationship with Zhang Jingmo is not close, and after she successfully formed the alchemy, she has no connection with the teacher at all.

Since the master and apprentice were not destined, Zhang Jingmo didn't force it. If she came back, he would still give her what should be given to her, but he would not do his best like he did to Ji Jinglun.

The relationship between people is mutual, if it is not managed, it will fade away.

Zhang Jingmo said: "How about the apprentice I sent you?"

Bai Lingxiao said: "Very good."

Very good - for Bai Lingxiao, this is already a very good compliment, even for Lu Guijiu back then, it was just a good word.

It can be seen from this that there is a difference in treatment between the apprentices of one's own family and the apprentices of other families.

Zhang Jingmo seemed to be smiling when he heard the words, and he said, "How should I thank me?"

Bai Lingxiao frowned: "If you are bullied by your apprentice in the future, you can ask me to help you."

Zhang Jingmo said angrily: "What do you mean being bullied by my apprentice?!"

Bai Lingxiao said bluntly: "As a master, in just 300 years, your cultivation level will soon be overtaken by your apprentice, and it is normal to be bullied."

Zhang Jingmo: "..." He was speechless.

Seeing that Zhang Jingmo's expression was not good-looking, Bai Lingxiao actually laughed.

Hearing Bai Lingxiao's laughter, Zhang Jingmo showed a helpless expression.His cultivation was destined to be overtaken by Lu Guijiu. As for bullying...he didn't believe that he would be bullied by Lu Guijiu in this life.

Then, Zhang Jingmo told Bai Lingxiao about his future plans.

Knowing that Zhang Jingmo was going to the southwest, Bai Lingxiao seemed a little worried. There were many poisonous miasmas over there, and it was always an extremely dangerous place.Most of the cultivators who emerge are evil cultivators who follow crooked ways, and if they are not careful, they will easily die.

But seeing Zhang Jingmo's confidence, Bai Lingxiao didn't try to persuade him, he just told Zhang Jingmo to be careful in everything, if there is anything beyond his ability, don't force it.

Faced with Bai Lingxiao's kindness, Zhang Jingmo responded to all of them one by one.

After Bai Lingxiao finished speaking, he asked where Lu Guijiu was at this time.

Zhang Jingmo said he went to rest.

After a moment of silence, Bai Lingxiao said: "Qingyuan, are you really... completely at ease with your apprentice?"

Zhang Jingmo didn't expect Bai Lingxiao to say such a sentence, he said: "Naturally."

Bai Lingxiao was hesitant to speak, but in the end he just let out a long sigh, and said, "Forget it, I won't say much, you must have a sense of proportion in your own heart..." Although he admitted Lu Guijiu's qualifications, but I always feel that this child is both good and evil, like a person who will do something out of the ordinary.

Zhang Jingmo nodded, as he had complied with Bai Lingxiao's order.

The two talked until noon, when Bai Lingxiao was about to leave.

Lu Guijiu didn't have a good rest all night. As soon as he came out of the house, he saw Bai Lingxiao who was about to leave, and called out: "Master."

"Pokemon." Bai Lingxiao nodded slightly.

Lu Guijiu said: "Master is leaving?"

Bai Lingxiao hummed.

Lu Guijiu felt that Bai Lingxiao's eyes were a little weird, and he said, "Why is Master looking at me like this?"

Bai Lingxiao said coldly: "Lu Guijiu, you have to remember what your master has done for you. If you fail him in the future, I will kill you." He said The voice was extremely cold, obviously not joking.

After hearing this, Lu Guijiu was not angry, but responded lightly.

Only then did Bai Lingxiao leave, Lu Guijiu looked at his back, his lips pursed in an indifferent arc.
