Xianzun, your spirit bird is gone

When Shi Xueshu woke up, the bed beside her was still warm.

His slender fingers stroked the quilt, but they didn't touch anyone.

He called out his name in a low voice, and at the same time put on his robe and got up and got out of bed. The wooden building was shaking gently under his feet, and the sound of water flowed in. Outside the water pavilion was the open water surface of Spring Lake.

The warm body slammed into his arms the moment the curtain was lifted, the voice was slightly hoarse, and there were eye-catching spots on the side of the white neck.

He tightened his arms, listening to the chatter of the person in his arms, patiently stretched out his hands to stroke the person's hair, and smoothed his hair with his fingertips, the corners of his mouth had already been curved at some point.

The man took his hand, interlocked his fingers and opened the curtain, trot happily to the side of the building, looked at the lake and said something, let go of his hand and jumped into the lake.

He was a little anxious and helpless, but no one came up after waiting for a long time, so he simply tore off his coat and threw it on the ground, and also got into the water.

The surface of the lake was clear, but the water was cold, and the cold air penetrated into his skin. He opened his eyes underwater to look for someone, but what he saw was pitch black.

He swam in the water without a clue. The water was so deep and dark that it seemed to have no bottom.

Suddenly, a bright light flashed in front of his eyes, and a fiery red flashed across his face. He couldn't reach it, so he had to try his best to find it. Finally, at the bottom of the lake, he saw the man sleeping soundly with his eyes closed.

He moved faster, with eagerness and worry, but when he touched a person, his eyes were once again pitch black, and a bird song shook the sky, shaking his brain, and he quickly floated to the surface of the water. Gasping, he woke up.

The chill emanated from the bed board below her body, Shi Xueshu lay still for a long time, trying to forget the second half of the dream, and savor the warmth of the previous part.

This may be the happiest moment after waking up every day.

It's just that today seems to be different from the past.

He remembered the bird song that woke him up, and he got up slowly after a long time.

There was a chaotic gray in front of him, he stretched out his hand to retie the loose Shuiguang Ling, and slowly walked out.

He was considered blind, but not totally blind. He could see objects and shadows, but it was difficult to distinguish shapes, and he could not stare at anything for too long, or encounter strong light or wind and sand.

This is the aftermath of the fierce beast war many years ago.

This is the lightest sequelae.

"Chirp—"

The sound of birdsong brought his thoughts back to his cage, but he didn't know if he stayed in the cave for too long and some new birds and beasts were born in the world, or he was still in a trance and couldn't tell what kind of bird's song it was.

Dazed, she felt that her mind seemed to be a little clearer, Shi Xueshu pressed her fingers against the cold and wet stone wall, and moved a few steps.

"Master, Immortal Venerable..." A voice as small as a mosquito came from outside the cave, and it seemed that a magic weapon was used, but it was still barely heard through the barrier of the cave.

Shi Xueshu hadn't heard a human voice for many years, and naturally she hadn't spoken a word, so she didn't know how to answer for a while.The situation here is called retreat to outsiders, but he knows that it is better to say it is punishment and repentance.

"...Immortal Venerable, disciples Yue Mo, Yue Rui, and Yue Zhi, are ordered to welcome the Immortal Venerable out of the customs."

His voice was a little rough, he opened his lips but it took a long time before he made a sound: "Yue?"

After the voice came out, he himself was stunned, hoarse and ugly, like a centenarian's deep and muddy sigh.It is true that he is several hundred years old. This cave has a long history, and he does not know when it will be. It's just that immortal cultivators have always had an ugly face, and it is common for them to be unable to distinguish their age and gender.

He lowered his head and smiled, maybe he really became old and ugly after being injured, even if his lifespan is not over, he looks like an old man, worthy of the title of immortal.

The disciples outside didn't care about the voice of the Immortal Venerable. For the young disciples who had never met Shi Xueshu, the Immortal Venerable should have a solemn and dignified appearance with white hair and white beard. They all looked up and were pleasantly surprised by the Immortal Venerable's response , even if you didn't even hear what you said.

But it is not important.

"Immortal Venerable, please step out of the pass. The head said that you have a friend who sent a gift from thousands of miles away. Congratulations on your exit!" Yue Mo's voice raised slightly, and he knelt even straighter. There was a half-person-high cage by his side, covered with a green cloth, and there was some movement inside.

The other two disciples, like him, wore green shirts with white seals, embroidered with fine animal totems and auspicious clouds, their hair was neatly combed into high ponytails, their faces were still childish, and they held wooden boxes of different sizes in their hands. Kneeling respectfully behind Yuemo.

All three of them were beating drums in their hearts to varying degrees.

There is a general election for disciples held every three years in Yanlu Mountain. There is no limit to the origin but only the aptitude. Children with spiritual power points above ten and bone age below fifteen can be selected to enter the outer sect to practice. After a period of grinding and observation, leave behind the hard work Concentrate on entering the inner sect to worship a teacher, and only after being named by the master can you officially start the road of practice.

The month is the ranking of the young disciples of this generation.The three of Yuemo can be said to be the three most special children in this general election. After staying in the outer gate for a month, they were not selected by any immortal masters, but they were personally given names by the head and sent to stop Xuefeng to see them off. thing.

The head said: "The three of you have excellent qualifications. Now that Xiubai Immortal Venerable is about to leave the customs, he has been lonely in Xuefeng for many years, so you go to add more people."

The surprise came suddenly. The three of them were not outstanding among the group of new disciples, but they were said to have excellent aptitude by the headmaster, and they were specially asked to worship the legendary god-level immortal as their teacher. The news smashed their faces Flushing, calm down all the way but worried about what to do if Xiubai Immortal Venerable doesn't accept him.

At this moment, there was no sound coming from the cave, and the three of them couldn't help but look sideways at each other, feeling uneasy.As the oldest senior brother, Yue Mo was a little more stable than the other two, so she couldn't help feeling a little flustered at the moment, so she had to muster up the courage to speak again.

"Immortal Venerable...respectfully invite Immortal Venerable to leave the customs."

Let three young disciples who are immature to welcome her out of the customs... Shi Xueshu smiled bitterly, whether this is the kindness of the younger brother or a warning.But the younger brother didn't think about it. In fact, he didn't even have the intention of going out and competing with him for the position of master.

His mind was never here either.

"You guys go back." After a long time, Shi Xueshu opened his mouth, his voice was a little clearer, but still hoarse and obscure, "Tell the head, I will be closed."

The three children outside the door were stunned. They had only just started, but they also learned the basic knowledge of cultivation from the big class. The death test means that they either die or ascend to the upper realm.

According to legend, Xiubai Immortal Venerable had reached the god level 300 years ago, and one step forward would be the guest of the upper realm, and it is not against harmony to say this now.only......

Once he soars, there will be no one to sit and protect Yanlu Mountain, and the Xuanlu Pavilion, which mainly raises spirit beasts, will be devoured to nothing by other immortal sects.

Today's Lushan Mountain has been destroyed by the fierce beasts, and more than half of its heritage has been destroyed. In addition, the aura of heaven and earth is getting thinner day by day. Many people think that the spirit beasts are just a burden rather than a help. Treasure, where are the extra resources to raise these gold swallowing beasts.

There are even many people who secretly took aim at the spirit beasts of Yanlu Mountain, and after secretly stealing them, they peeled their skins and dug out the pills, and absorbed all their muscles, bones, and flesh to improve their own cultivation. Now, fewer and fewer people come to apprentice.

If Immortal Venerable Xiubai once retreated and ascended to the upper realm, no one dared to say how many years the Lulu Mountain would last.

Yuemo and the others had heard other senior brothers talk about this matter before, but because they were ignorant not long after they started, now they heard Xiubai Xianzun himself say the words of the closed death test, and they couldn't help but think of these things.

The young children only saw the majesty of the mountain gate and the majesty of Tingxue Peak, and they couldn't feel the decadence of being strong outside but doing nothing at all. What they were more worried about at the moment was who would be their master when the Immortal Venerable was closed to death ah!

As if they were about to fall from the clouds of surprise to the soil, they desperately wanted to struggle.

"Xianzun... the master said that the time for you to retreat has come, and today...today is going to leave." Yue Mo said reluctantly, and he was very anxious to tell the three of them that they would be apprentices. Things, and thinking about the original words of the master, he dared not say that, so he had to consider and consider.

The original words of the head of the sect were "he must come out today", but Yue Mo couldn't say such words, although he couldn't see the appearance of Xiubai Immortal Venerable through the gate of the cave, but the voice already felt extremely majestic, and he didn't dare to presume.

Shi Xueshu didn't know the trembling of the three children outside, and he didn't even want to answer when he heard this. He has always had a bad relationship with his junior, so he didn't think he would be able to say any kind words to let him go out, but he suddenly remembered the bird call just now. Called, and asked: "What was it called just now?"

Qilu Mountain mainly raises spiritual beasts, among which there are many beasts with various attributes and characteristics that have strange sounds, and the bird sounds of quadruped beasts are not special, so the question is "what is called" not "what is the bird called?" ".

Yue Mo and the others were stunned for a moment when they heard the words, and then their eyes fell on the half-person-high cage. The three of them looked at each other, and it was Yue Rui who spoke.

"Returning to the Immortal Venerable, this disciple doesn't know. The cage is covered with a green cloth, we don't allow it, we dare not open it to see it without authorization."

He is more eloquent than Yue Mo, with a hint of arrogance between his brows and eyes, and he kneels straightest: "I just heard that this is from Penglai, a friend of Xianzun entrusted a merchant ship to transport it. The head said It was brought to Tingxue Peak to show you."

Shi Xueshu thought it was funny, if he didn't leave the customs, how could he see this special spirit beast, the junior brother really hated him the most, and also knew him best.

Just one cry can wake him up from the dream of infinite reincarnation, this little guy is no longer an ordinary spirit beast.

If he doesn't leave the customs, how can Shi Xueshu rest assured that this rare spirit beast cub will be raised by a few young disciples outside.

His hands were still holding on to the rough stone wall, but his fingertips lightly tapped on the stone wall. The rough rock mud under his palm seemed to come to life in an instant, sliding like a loach, bringing the whole cave to make a small "rustling" sound. Combining new shapes and shapes, the black and gray wall mud gradually formed pieces of light green bamboo, and the damp and cold cave gradually transformed into an elegant bamboo building, which rose slowly to a height of three stories.

The three little disciples outside were dumbfounded, and saw that the dilapidated cave with strange rocks slowly turned into a three-story bamboo building in front of them, and the surrounding dead wood turned into a secluded and towering deep bamboo forest, covering the sun and casting a shade , the body of the building is getting wider, and there are some intricate corridors and rooms on each floor, which are exquisite and elegant, but a little more mysterious.

Xu felt the changes in the outside world, and there was a lot of movement in the cage. It seemed that he wanted to break out of the cage back and forth, and a series of sharp calls pierced through the air, piercing the eardrums of Yuemo and the three unbearably swollen, and they covered their ears. Blood gradually flowed out from between his fingers.

A gust of bamboo wind passed by, the green cloth on the cage was lifted, and the knuckles of the long and thin palm easily pierced through the cage and gently pinched the beak of the red bird, and the sharp singing stopped abruptly.

Shi Xueshu was stabbed by the sunlight outside, and with the other hand, she hugged the small bird from the cage into her arms.

"It won't be good if you keep screaming, don't be afraid, we won't hurt you, good bird."
