It was frost that year, and Jiang Sibai was already nineteen years old. He held a small wooden barrel in one hand and followed his master into the mountains with a black sword box on his back.
Beside him, the happy Qiu Shuang Fairy was riding on the back of the big white fox, happily riding all the way.
Children's funny voices continued along the way, making the old Taoist priest walking in front often stroke his beard and smile.
This is a combination full of warmth and fun.
At this moment, Jiang Sibai sniffed and suddenly smelled the aroma of wine coming towards him.
The aroma of this wine is very strange, and it seems to make people drunk after smelling it.
The unprepared Qiuniang reacted even more strongly, her little body swayed, and she fell off Dabai's back.
The big white fox quickly rolled up its tail and wrapped the little girl in its tail, and then cursed angrily: "Who is this wicked person? How can he be as virtuous as that bastard Shuzhenko!"
A voice came from the distance: "Okay, you fat fox, are you scolding me?"
As soon as he finished speaking, Jiang Sibai didn't know why, but a man in black robes appeared in front of him.
Is this person Shu Mako?
Although it seems that Sake Mako is quite familiar with Mr. Dabai, he still needs to show his attitude.
Jiang Sibai put down the barrel and took out the Kunyu sword from the sword box, making a defensive posture.
After all, he has been fighting in a vicious nightmare for the past three years. At this time, just a defensive posture actually feels like a Yuan Ting Yue Zhi.
That aura seemed to be overwhelming that of Taoist Mo Shang.
"Huh?"
The visitor let out a light sigh.
Only then did Jiang Sibai see this man's face clearly. He was a young man with a round face who seemed to be slightly fat, but was very delicate and handsome.
The key is the cynicism on his face, which makes him look extremely charming.
The black Taoist robe on his body reminded Jiang Sibai that this was the highest Zaoyi disciple among the five colors of Luo Yun!
"Okay, nephew, hurry up and get rid of your alcoholic smell. Those are my new disciples."
Taoist Mo Shang spoke.
Only then did Shuzhenzi take a deep breath, and he felt like he was swallowing the heavens with gluttony. For a moment, the howling wind rolled back towards the mouth filled with the smell of alcohol.
When everything calmed down after a while, Jiang Sibai realized that the strong aroma of wine was gone.
Then Shuzhenzi said with a stern look on his face: "Master, I think your disciple has a deep foundation and great potential, so he won't be afraid of the smell of my wine."
Seeing this, Jiang Sibai put away his Kunyu sword and clasped his fists, saying, "Jiang Sibai, I have met Senior Brother Shuzhenko."
"Thank you, senior brother, for taking care of our frail junior sister. I am deeply grateful."
Only then did Sake Mako realize with embarrassment that there was a three-year-old girl here!
Fortunately, Jiang Sibai's words took care of his feelings.
But this is still very embarrassing.
He hid his face and said, "Junior brother, you are a good man. Let's meet again on the mountain in three years!"
Before he finished speaking, the person had disappeared.
"This Jiu Zhenzi..." Taoist Mo Shang smiled lightly.
Dabai said disdainfully: "I didn't expect that the candidate to succeed the old Taoist priest would be this alcoholic. Xiaobai, I'm afraid your family will suffer a lot."
Jiang Sibai took advantage of the situation and asked: "Which peak and valley does that senior brother come from?"
Taoist Mo Shang said: "That is Jiu Zhenzi, the second generation disciple of Shenwu Valley. In fact, he could have entered Doufeng as a deacon long ago, but he didn't want to, so he has been hanging around in Shenwu Valley."
Dabai said very dissatisfied: "Is he hanging out in Shenwu Valley? He has obviously been eating and drinking in our Shennong Valley!"
Taoist Mo Shang shook his head and said: "Most of our disciples in Shennong Valley are weak. It is a good thing to have the help of such strong disciples from other sects."
Jiang Sibai nodded repeatedly as he listened. He agreed with his teacher's view, but Teacher Dabai might not think so.
They continued walking into the mountains.
It was even colder in the mountains. Fairy Qiu Shuang was agitated by the cold wind blowing in the mountains and sneezed suddenly with an 'ah-chirp' sound.
Seeing this, Jiang Sibai directly deprived Teacher Dabai of the right to take care of the baby, took Fairy Qiu Shuang off his back, and then wrapped her in her robe and held her in her arms.
"Kekeke~"
The little girl smiled happily.
Of course it’s the warmth of my senior brother’s embrace.
Taoist Mo Shang walked in front. He said with a smile: "Disciples, don't worry, we will be there soon."
"Grandpa, where are we going?"
Fairy Qiushuang asked innocently.
Taoist Mo Shang said cheerfully: "Go to a place... where it's warm and there won't be any fights."
Fairy Qiu Shuang nodded as if she understood. Of course she didn't understand anything about this.
But Jiang Sibai asked more: "Is it true that there won't be any fights in Luo Yunxian Mountain?"
Taoist Mo Shang was immediately stunned by the question.
He said: "There will still be some disputes of spirit, but they won't be as intense and frequent as in the mortal world."
Jiang Sibai nodded tentatively after hearing this. The little girl in his arms had somehow fumbled out a piece of parchment filled with words...
So the whole mountain was filled with Jiang Sibai's exclamations and Fairy Qiu Shuang's charming laughter.
…
The mountain road becomes more and more dangerous.
Gradually the clouds cover and the fog surrounds.
Jiang Sibai's expression suddenly tightened, and he said: "Master, I feel that the spiritual energy under my feet is chaotic!"
His outstanding talent lies in the Qi of the Golden Spirit, but what he spends the most time on is the Qi of the Earth Spirit.
Therefore, the first thing I sensed was the disorder of the Qi under my feet.
The big white fox sneered and said: "Look at how anxious you are, this is the outside of the 'Luo Tianduyun Formation'. If you, a young monk who has practiced Qi for three years, can overcome the disturbance of the formation, then this Xianjia Mountain Gate Formation can also
Too cheap.”
Jiang Sibai felt relieved after hearing this.
Taoist Mo Shang praised: "Disciple, you can find clues just outside the formation. Your thought is commendable."
Of course, Jiang Sibai had long formed the habit of memorizing the aura of the earth veins wherever he went, so this sudden disorder would naturally attract his attention.
This is when the old Taoist priest said again: "Don't think about anything else now, just follow me closely."
I saw the old Taoist priest starting to walk quickly on the steep mountain road.
Jiang Sibai and the big white fox quickly followed, but Fairy Qiu Shuang seemed to find it very exciting and let out another burst of sweet laughter like silver bells in his arms.
After a while, a pavilion suddenly appeared in the fog ahead.
A young man in white robes sat cross-legged in the pavilion.
"Uncle Master, have you returned to the mountain?"
Taoist Mo Shang nodded to him slightly and said, "Zhike, I brought two disciples back this time, please inform me."
Nazhi Ke Taoist nodded, and then lightly tapped on the table, and saw an emerald-colored jade token fly into the mountain.
Then he said: "The 'Chu Yuan Hall' has been notified, asking Uncle Master to bring his disciples to register, and then the 'Chu Yuan Hall' will receive them."
Taoist Mo Shang nodded and said, "Then I'll trouble Zhi Ke."
Then he turned back to Jiang Sibai and said, "Come on, disciple, it's time to take you into the real fairy gate. Don't just look at the scenery in front of you, be more careful about whether you are stepping on solid ground."
"Yes, Master." Jiang Sibai responded, and then realized that it seemed to be full of puns.
Yes, he was led in by his master.
What will unfold before his eyes must be an extremely magnificent world. Master is warning him not to aim too high and to pay more attention to laying a solid foundation!
He felt that he understood, and quickly and solemnly clasped his fists and bowed and said again: "Thank you, Master, for your teaching!"
Taoist Mo Shang blinked his eyes in confusion, then coughed dryly and said, "Okay, let's go."
