Lu Jiayun put his hands on the table and said with a smile: "Senior brother, don't be too nervous. I don't have any ill intentions in coming."
Ji Xiong folded his arms and closed his eyes and hummed: "Our two families have never gotten along, so if you come to me, it must be up to no good."
Lu Jiayun said: "Although there are grievances between the sects, my senior brother and I have never had any feud. On the contrary, I have always admired my senior brother."
When Ji Xiong heard this, he felt happy and raised his eyebrows: "Oh?"
Lu Jiayun said: "Senior Brother Ji is extremely talented and charming, and his future is limitless."
Ji Xiong couldn't help but laugh, closed his eyes and said, "Junior sister, thank you."
Lu Jiayun chuckled and said, "However, senior brother is not very lucky, which is quite regrettable."
Ji Xiong blinked: "Bad luck?
What do you think of this?"
Lu Jiayun said: "People often say that you have to meet a wise master. Cultivating the Tao not only requires talent and hard work, but also requires someone to guide you."
Ji Xiong was displeased: "You mean, my master is not a wise master?"
Lu Jiayun said: "Your teacher is indeed quite capable, but he is indeed not a wise master."
Ji Xiong snorted and made a serious face: "My teacher has wonderful teachings and teaches them all, so why can't he be regarded as a wise master?"
Lu Jiayun asked back: "If your teacher really gave everything to teach you, with your senior brother's talent, how could you lose to my senior brother?"
Ji Xiong said unconvinced: "That's because the teacher didn't teach me the body-holding technique."
Lu Jiayun nodded: "That's right. Your teacher has some reservations when teaching his disciples."
Ji Xiong looked sideways: "Your teacher just passed on all his skills to you?"
Lu Jiayun said: "My teacher naturally has reservations, but he doesn't hide his unique skills like your teacher."
Ji Xiong raised his head and closed his eyes and said, "Tao is not taught lightly. My teacher has said that this body-fixing method cannot be taught until we have a solid foundation."
Lu Jiayun smiled and said: "If senior brother believes this, then I don't need to say more."
Ji Xiong frowned: "What do you want to do when you come to me?"
Lu Jiayun asked: "Senior brother, do you want to learn your teacher's body-fixing technique?"
Ji Xiong crossed his arms and leaned toward the chair: "Of course I want to learn."
Lu Jiayun said: "Junior sister has a good idea."
Ji Xiong probed: "Oh?"
Lu Jiayun changed the topic: "However, it is impossible for your teacher to teach you the body-fixing method obediently."
Ji Xiong thought about it and glared coldly: "You want me to be a traitor?"
Lu Jiayun said: "Senior brother, you have to be flexible. If your teacher really has no reservations, you should respect the teacher by defending him. However, senior brother, ask yourself, if you treat him as a teacher, does he treat you as a disciple?"
Ji Xiong stared and said loudly: "Of course, otherwise where would all my skills come from?"
Lu Jiayun said: "Senior brother's abilities are due to his extraordinary talent, but he is still no match for my senior brother. He is obviously delayed by mediocre teachers. A discerning person can tell this at a glance."
Ji Xiong said what he said but meant what he said: "Teacher has his own reasons for not teaching us the body-fixing method. If the time is not ripe, it means it is immature."
Lu Jiayun shook his head: "Brother, don't you understand? Your teacher doesn't regard you as one of his own at all. Otherwise, how could he stop you from pursuing Liu Lanqing and not teach you the body-fixing method?"
When Ji Xiong heard this, his eyes widened and he came to his senses.
Lu Jiayun continued: "Senior brother, your talent is so high that it is rarely seen in the world. Your teacher is afraid of you, fearing that you will not be able to master your skills after learning, so he will not teach you the unique skills of body fixation, let alone associate with your junior sister. Such a teacher, you
Do you still think you are a Master?"
Ji Xiong frowned, lowered his head and sighed.
Lu Jiayun looked over and said, "Senior brother, are you willing to live under others for the rest of your life?
How long will it take for you to repent?"
Ji Xiong raised his head and asked, "What does junior sister mean?"
Lu Jiayun said: "I have a clever plan for my senior brother to learn the master's body-fixing technique, and to win the beauty back."
Ji Xiong had already seen it clearly: "Don't you just want me to cooperate inside and outside?
If I become a traitor, will there be any place for me in the Taoist sect in the future?"
Lu Jiayun said: "Senior brother, if this matter comes to pass, senior brother will be the only disciple of Ji Rong Temple who has received the true transmission. At that time, what is the truth of the matter, and it is not up to you to tell me?"
Ji Xiong raised his head, weighed it for a long time, turned his head and asked, "What do you need me to do?"
Lu Jiayun said: "Senior brother is needed to make an opening in the mountain-protecting formation, and we will do the rest. The blame will be placed on us, Cheng Gongguan. Senior brother has both wonderful magic and beauty, isn't it wonderful?"
A smile gradually appeared on the corner of Ji Xiong's mouth, and he said: "The foot of the mountain-protecting formation is buried at the foot of the mountain. You go up the mountain from the northeast corner and climb over the wall, which is where my teacher lives. When the time comes, I will dig out the formation hole in the northeast corner.
"
Lu Jiayun stood up and sat on Ji Xiong's lap: "When the matter is done, senior brother has a little junior sister, but don't forget me, junior sister."
Ji Xiong swallowed: "That's natural."
In the afternoon of the second day, Ji Xiong returned to the mountain gate. In the evening, he quietly went to Liu Jue's residence.
Liu Jue came to open the door: "Brother, why are you here?"
Ji Xiong looked mysteriously, looking left and right, and said, "I have something to discuss with you."
Liu Jue invited the people in, closed the door, sat across from each other at the table, and asked, "Brother, what do you want from me in the middle of the night?"
Ji Xiong whispered: "I went down the mountain to collect herbs yesterday and met Lu Jiayun."
Liu Jue stood up: "Oh?
A fight started?"
Ji Xiong shook his head: "No, I stayed in the county town last night, and she came to see me in the middle of the night."
Liu Jue smiled: "Oh?"
Ji Xiong said: "Lu Jiayun said a few words to me, and I think what she said makes sense."
Liu Jue looked up and asked, "What did she say?"
Ji Xiong said: "She said that our teachers are mediocre teachers who mislead students."
Liu Jue shook his head: "Senior brother, Chenggong Temple and our Jirong Temple have always been at odds with each other. How can you listen to Lu Jiayun's nonsense?"
Ji Xiong shook his head and said: "In the previous battle with Cheng Gongguan, why was I not Wenlingshan's opponent?"
Liu Jue said: "The Taoism of Chenggongguan is a mixture of good and evil. They use some heretical techniques. It doesn't matter if they win."
Ji Xiong glared and said seriously: "If the teacher taught us the body-fixing method, how could I not be Wen Lingshan's opponent?"
After hearing this, Liu Jue blinked and nodded: "Senior brother's words are true. The teacher's body-holding technique is very powerful, but it's a pity that he refuses to pass it on to us."
Ji Xiong said: "Teacher only has three apprentices, why don't you teach it to us?"
Liu Jue laughed sarcastically: "Didn't the teacher say that this method needs to be taught by a virtuous person?"
Ji Xiong was unhappy: "What do you mean?
Aren’t those of us who are disciples virtuous people?
If he doesn't teach us this body-fixing method, what else can we learn from him?"
Liu Jue nodded and said: "Senior brother's words are reasonable, but we have already followed him, what else can we do, we can only hope that the teacher will pass on his skills to us as soon as possible."
Ji Xiong hesitated for a moment and said: "Junior brother, I came to you just because I didn't treat you as an outsider. Lu Jiayun came to me last night and gave our junior brothers a clever plan that can not only obtain the teacher's true biography, but also win the beauty back.
