Chapter 44: The Supreme Learning
Ji Chou looked around on the way to the Zhenhun Hall following Tiantongzi. He saw that the Zhenhun League occupies a large area. There are many Qiongtai pavilions in the city, which are solemn, simple, grand and thick. The stone road paved with bluestone is more than nine feet wide. The road was wider, three feet long. Because it was still early, there were few pedestrians on the road. Only the servants and servants were cleaning the street. When they saw Tian Tongzi, they all said hello and gave way. Tian Tongzi did not answer, but just nodded in response.
Seeing Ji Chou looking around, Tian Tongzi frowned and glanced at him again. He didn't know that Ji Chou wanted to look at him a few times before leaving, but he just thought that he had little etiquette and didn't understand the rules.
Ji Chou was still a little cautious at first, but he didn't care after being looked down upon. He endured the pain and followed Tian Tongzi, looking around and around, as he headed towards the Hall of Zhenhun.
The streets were very quiet, a bit depressing. I have to say that the Soul-Souling Alliance is indeed a majestic place for outstanding people. Most of the buildings in the city are made of stone. Although they are tall, they are not ostentatious. Although the wooden buildings are decorated with carved beams and beams, they are not fancy.
At first, Ji Qiu could barely keep up, but later it became really hard to follow, and he simply stopped because he couldn't breathe easily.
Tian Tongzi walked a long way away, but did not hear Ji Chou's footsteps. He stopped and turned around, only to find Ji Chou sitting on the stone steps beside the road.
"What are you doing?" Tian Tongzi asked with a frown.
"I'm injured. I'm tired from walking. Let's take a breather." Ji Chou said casually. As the saying goes, being strong without desires, as long as you don't ask for anything from others, you will be confident.
Tian Tongzi was very unhappy, "Didn't the leader of the alliance give you a Huang Zhi Resurrection Pill?"
Ji Chou took the elixir in his hand, raised his hand and said, "I don't want to eat your food. The elixir is right here, do you still want it with you?"
Ji Chou's words were already quite hostile. Tian Tongzi was surprised to see how stubborn he was, "Why don't you eat what the alliance leader gave you?"
"I won't die if I don't eat it." Ji Chou said with a smile.
Tian Tongzi was almost 40 years old, so how could he not hear the hostility and dissatisfaction in Ji Chou's words. He was responsible for guiding the way. If he and Ji Chou had a quarrel in the street, it would definitely be embarrassing, so he lowered his tone and said softly, "Feng Tianlun once misunderstood you..."
Before Tian Tongzi could finish speaking, Ji Chou interrupted him, "Feng Tianlun didn't misunderstand me, he wanted to kill me!"
Because Ji Chou's voice was quite loud, it caused the street sweeper boy to stop and look around. Tian Tongzi hurriedly calmed down the matter and said, "You have a rest and wait until you are able to walk. Go to the Soul-Suppressing Alliance as soon as possible. The alliance leader and the elders are all in the hall. Don't let anyone go." They've been waiting for a long time."
Ji Chou didn't answer, took a breath, stood up and took steps.
Tian Tongzi walked a little slower this time, and it was not very difficult for him to follow. The Soul-Suppressing Hall is located in the middle of the main city, with a main road connecting the southeast and northwest. The two of them were going to the Soul-Suppressing Hall from the east road at this time.
After burning half a stick of incense, the two of them arrived at the outer gate of the Zhenhun Hall, entered through the main entrance, and walked up the corridor to the hall.
The corridor is dozens of feet long. The door of the palace is open at this time. Ji Qiu can see the situation inside the palace. There are many large chairs with backrests, three rows on the left and right, and each row has dozens of large chairs with backrests. The hall was full of people at this time. There was a golden plaque hanging at the height of the north, with the four ancient seal characters "Heavenly Bearer" written on it. There were many Dharma statues hanging on the four walls of the hall. He only knew the Patriarch of the Sanqing Dynasty, and the rest He should be the founder of each major sect.
Under the golden plaque is the main seat, with a large seat, but there is no one on the seat at this time. A tall and thin middle-aged man stands in front of the main seat. His eyebrows are very similar to Ji Ling'er's, no doubt. It’s Ji Lianyu, the leader of the Zhenhun Alliance.
Third aunt once said that Ji Lianyu had a daughter in middle age and loved her very much. Judging from his age, Ji Lianyu should be sixty or seventy years old, but this man was successful in Qi training and his appearance was not old, and he looked quite young.
Ji Lianyu was looking out of the hall at this time, and Ji Chou was able to face him face to face. Ji Lianyu's demeanor was aloof, majestic and calm yet friendly and peaceful. When his eyes swept over Ji Chou's face, a slight smile appeared on his face.
.
At this time, the official affairs of the Soul-Suppressing Alliance have been discussed, and everyone stayed in the palace just to wait for Ji Chou to grow old. Tian Tongzi came in to resume his duties, and then returned to his place. Ji Chou stepped forward to the threshold in full view of everyone.
At this time, it would be rude to look around. Ji Chou did not look at the high-level monks sitting on both sides. Instead, he clasped his fists and bent down to salute Ji Lianyu and others, "Junior Ji Chou, please see Alliance Leader Ji and seniors
.”
There were many sensitive and intelligent people among the crowd. Seeing that he added Ji Lianyu's surname when meeting Ji Lianyu, he could not help but have more doubts. Adding the surname meant that he was treating himself as an outsider and was not getting close to him to please him.
"No need to be polite," Ji Lianyu waved with a smile, then said in a deep voice, "You are still seriously injured, so sit down and talk."
After hearing Ji Lianyu's words, someone immediately moved a seat for him. Ji Chou shook his head and said, "Thank you, Leader Ji, for the seat. I'll just stand."
"Ji Chou, you'd better sit down and talk." Someone spoke from the last row on the east side, and it was Ji Ling'er's voice.
"Thank you, Alliance Leader Ji, no need." Ji Chou shook his head.
Seeing that he insisted on not sitting down, Ji Lianyu did not force himself. He put away his smile and said seriously, "Tianlunzi relies on force to show off his cruelty and maliciously hurts others, which is against the moral ethics of monks. After verification and adjudication, he will be severely punished and the flaming arrow will be destroyed."
Genealogy, temporarily stay in the Soul-Suppressing Alliance to perform meritorious deeds and see the consequences. Are you satisfied with this treatment?"
On the way here, Ji Chou thought that Ji Lianyu would give him an explanation. He also expected that Feng Tianlun would be dealt with in this way. Ji Lianyu did not protect his apprentice, but he also left a way out for Feng Tianlun.
"The Soul-Suppressing Alliance is fair in dealing with matters," Ji Chou said. "Miss Ji was also too angry earlier. If the leader of Alliance Ji does not punish Miss Ji, Feng Tianlun and Feng Tianlun can just punish her with a small punishment, but there is no need to be so harsh."
"Well, I have my own thoughts on this matter," Ji Lianyu said with a smile, "Ji Linger is both a monk of the Soul-Suppressing Alliance and my daughter. You saved her life and took care of her for many days. You should be praised. I will
Asking you, what kind of reward do you want?"
Ji Chou shook his head and said, "I don't want anything."
"Oh?" Ji Lianyu was very surprised.
Not only Ji Lianyu himself was surprised, but everyone in the palace was also surprised. The surprise was not that Ji Chou didn't want anything, but that his tone and demeanor proved that he really meant what he said and was not lying against his will to retreat in order to advance.
"I really don't want anything," Ji Chou shook his head and said, "If it had been anyone else, I would have come to the rescue if I was in danger. Miss Ji is a good person, and the Soul-Suppressing Alliance is also very fair in dealing with things. There is no favoritism. My injuries are not
He's almost healed and will be leaving in a few days."
"It is very kind to give kindness without expecting anything in return," Ji Lianyu said, "but there is no reason in the world to do good without reward. Whatever you want, just say it."
"I really don't want anything." Ji Chou shook his head and said.
"Are you interested in joining the Soul-Suppressing Alliance?" Ji Lianyu asked.
Ji Chou shook his head.
"Do you have anything personal to ask for?" Ji Lianyu asked again.
Ji Chou knew what Ji Lianyu's words were implying, and after hesitation he shook his head again.
Seeing Ji Chou shaking his head, Ji Lianyu nodded slowly, and after pondering, he asked again, "Do you want to practice martial arts and Qi?"
Ji Chou wanted to shake his head, but he didn't. How could a man not want to practice Qi and martial arts?
Seeing that Ji Chou did not shake his head, Ji Lianyu asked harmoniously, "The Yanjian Sect has nine levels of qi and heart training methods. Samadhi True Fire is the nine-level supreme skill. Do you want to learn it?"
"Samadhi is really fire?" Ji Qiu asked back.
