This time there were only two people on it, one of whom was wearing a black long robe, sitting cross-legged on the boat, with a long piano in front of him.
His fingers were floating above the strings, plucking them in the air, but there was no sound, which looked extremely strange.
The other person was wearing a green shirt, and his round belly stretched the blue shirt to a huge size, as if he had a big ball stuffed in his belly.
He just sat opposite the young man in black clothes, his fat, knuckleless fingers flying up and down, playing with a tea set.
Yunze raised his eyes slightly, revealing a thin slit, and looked at the little fat man in front of him, feeling helpless in his heart.
According to the usual practice, after I went to the Chengtian Dynasty on behalf of Tongtian Academy, someone from the Immortal Palace would come to connect with me.
So before I practiced the piano, I asked this little fat man to make a pot of tea so that he could entertain the people of the Immortal Mansion.
But now an hour has passed...
This little fat man actually held the jade slip and compared the steps for making tea one by one.
This is the reliable outer disciple introduced to him by his little senior sister.
Yunze couldn't help but have some doubts. Did he really bring the wrong person?
Making tea is just a small thing.
Nearly half a month has passed since the two came out of Tongtian Academy, and he has only been observing this little chubby boy for half a month.
In the past half month, he has failed to do even one thing well.
During the Qi refining period, he had not yet eaten grains and needed to eat, so Yunze asked him to buy some food before setting off, but this guy came back with six chickens!
Three males and three females are euphemistically called chickens that lay eggs, and eggs that lay chickens. You only need six to create an endless supply.
Yunze didn't need to eat now, so he rolled his eyes and endured it.
Later, when the boat was launched and headed towards the Chengtian Dynasty, Yunze needed to practice quietly, so that if he discovered anything, he could come to the cabin to wake him up.
But this guy is good.
When he saw a flock of birds flying outside the boat, he wanted to catch them all and lectured them one by one, telling them not to chirp so as not to disturb his practice.
Seeing someone setting off fireworks below, he jumped down from the boat and told everyone not to set off fireworks into the sky if a fairy family passed by recently.
This was a good intention, but in the end Yunze had to turn the boat around and go down to pick him up.
There are so many things that Lin Zongzong doesn't know, but the way this guy handles these things every time is beyond Yunze's expectations!
No, let’s make some tea. It’s been an hour, and the water hasn’t even boiled yet!
"well……"
Yunze sighed, he had no choice but to open his eyes and look at Xiaopangdun: "Zi Ji, let me do it."
"Don't!"
Ziji stood up quickly, cupped his hands towards Yunze and said, "Mr. Tu, you are concentrating on enlightenment. Don't let me disturb your mind. You are just making a pot of tea. I can do it!"
If you can do it, why should I speak...
Yunze smiled helplessly.
This little chubby Dunhan is a bit stupid, but being stupid also has its advantages.
At least Yunze hasn't really played the piano for so many days, and just practicing out of thin air fell into his eyes, and it turned into enlightenment.
He didn't know what to say.
"Fellow Taoist ahead, are there people from Tongtian Academy?"
Just when Yunze was thinking about whether to knock this guy out and make tea himself so as not to lose face to Tongtian Academy, a voice sounded from a distance.
This voice... seems familiar!
Yunze turned his head to look in the direction of the sound, and his eyes suddenly lit up!
I saw a man dressed in white, standing on a flying sword, hovering a hundred meters away from the boat.
Brother Ji!
Isn't this Brother Ji who took special care of himself in the Fairy Club?
The old friend repeated that he subconsciously wanted to call out Ji Shan's name, but when the words came to his lips, they still changed.
"Exactly."
Yunze suppressed the joy in his heart, stood up, clasped his fists towards him and said, "Tongtian Academy, Tu Sheng."
"Xianfu, Ji Shan."
Ji Shan also smiled and clasped his fists. After a brief introduction, he stepped on the flying sword and walked towards the boat: "Fellow Taoist, can you allow me to get on the boat and talk about it? There are some things that need to be confirmed with you before the Ascension Conference begins."
"nature."
Yunze had no reason to refuse. He glanced at Ziji and found that he was busy playing with the tea set again.
Well, this time I poured the water into the teapot.
But you should light the fire first!
Yun Ze was really speechless, so he could only pinch out a ball of flame, throw it under the teapot, and then sit cross-legged.
He put the shock in front of him into the Sumeru Ring and stretched out his hand towards Ji Shan: "Fellow Daoist Ji, please."
"Thank you."
Ji Shan replied, then sat opposite Yunze, took out a token and handed it to Yunze: "This token is the admission certificate for this Immortal Ascension Conference. There are still more days until this Immortal Ascension Conference is held.
Half a month.
Taoist friends can enter and leave the venue and the fair at will with this certificate. If you want to trade something, we will prepare a free booth for you. If you want to consign something, we can also auction it for you and only charge half of the handling fee.
But the envoys from the other seven sects have already arrived, and this slightly better stall..."
"it's okay no problem."
Yunze smiled and put away the token.
Naturally, he didn't care about this stall or anything like that.
"There are some things that need attention."
Ji Shan saw that Yunze was easy to talk to, so he smiled and said: "The Chengtian Dynasty is not that big, and the people have not seen the Xian family very often, so it is inevitable that it is a bit rare and strange.
If some people offend you, please inform the Immortal Mansion to resolve it, and never take action yourself."
"Don't worry, I understand this."
"If you find that the same is true for people in the Demonic Path, please be sure to inform us. Now that the Demonic Cave and the Xiu Family have declared war, it is difficult for us, the Immortal Palace, to participate."
Yunze nodded slowly.
He only learned this news the day after arriving at Tongtian Academy.
After he learned the news at the time, he was a little confused subconsciously and thought it was a family dispute.
The main line of the Xiu family changes every thousand years, he knew this.
Based on his understanding of his brothers, even if Xiu Long didn't fake his death, he would never be Xiu Yun's opponent, so why should he be so anxious?
Yunze didn't know why Xiu Litian would resort to such thunderous methods against the Xiu family.
But after Yunxiao's explanation, he understood the root of all this!
It's not a family feud, nor an old feud, but the immediate crisis!
Hell!
The battle situation in the Demon Prison is tense, but in the world of cultivation, some families headed by the Xiu family are unwilling to go to war, and only send some monks above Nascent Soul to participate in the battle.
But monks like Fusion and Tribulation are hidden within the family.
Xiu Litian just wanted to use this thunderous method to force these guys out!
Kill the chicken to scare the monkey.
Xiujia is the chicken!
This is also the reason why the Immortal Palace is unwilling to intervene...
Yunze couldn't help but feel regretful.
If I didn't have the Heavenly Dao Foundation, I would really like to see this Demon Lord with my own eyes.
"Okay, now that we've finished talking about business, it's time to talk about personal matters."
Ji Shan suddenly stood up, clasped his fists towards Yunze and said, "The eldest prince of the Chengtian Dynasty, Ji Shan, would like to invite Mr. Tu to come to the palace to have a talk. I hope that Mr. Tu will give you a favor."
"ha?"
Yunze's head tilted.
He never thought that Brother Ji still had this identity.
Ji...that's right, his surname is also Ji!
"It sounds a bit abrupt."
Ji Shan's face turned red and he no longer sat down, but just stood like this: "I have a merciless request!"
Brother Ji, could it be that he wanted to take his younger brother under his wing through the back door?
Yunze couldn't help but frown. In his impression, Brother Ji was not such a person.
Although it is said that Ji Xiu will be accepted as a disciple sooner or later, there are different explanations as to why he is accepted.
His face darkened, and he replied according to Tu Sheng's character: "Fellow Daoist Ji, if it's a private matter, don't mix it with official matters."
"It doesn't really count..."
Ji Shan scratched his head in embarrassment, and after struggling for a while, he still said: "I would like to ask first, how many disciples will Tongtian Academy recruit this time?"
"Maximum seven."
"Seven..."
Ji Shan muttered something silently and frowned slightly.
After thinking for a few breaths, he spoke to Yunze: "Mr. Tu, why don't you listen to my unkind request first and then decide whether to agree?"
"Let's talk about it." Yunze did not refuse directly.
"My third brother..."
Just after hearing the first four words, Yunze secretly thought that it was indeed true.
But when he heard Ji Shan's words behind him, he couldn't help but be surprised!
"Please be sure not to take him under your wing and leave him in the mortal world!"
"What?"
Yunze was stunned.
The development of this matter seems to be a little different from what he thought!
"Please sir, please don't take my third brother under your wing!"
Ji Shan repeated: "In return, I will give you a second-level spiritual pen. Please agree to it!"
Yunze frowned and asked, "Does your third brother have a grudge against you?"
"none."
Ji Shan answered honestly: "I have been away from home for many years and have cultivated as an immortal. Today I came home and saw my third brother for the first time."
"Then your third brother and you are not blood relatives?"
"He and I were born from the same mother. Speaking of which, it's thanks to the elixirs I always send to my mother to keep her youthful. Otherwise, this kid wouldn't be able to come out."
"Then why did you..."
"inherited!"
Ji Shan had no reservations and said immediately: "Now that the Chengtian Dynasty is facing military chaos, I am an orthodox cultivator of immortality, so I can no longer interfere with mundane matters.
The first time I saw Xiao Xiu, I knew that he was extremely gifted and unusual. If he wanted to, he would be able to become an immortal!
But if he ascends to immortality, no one will be able to inherit the dynasty, and Chengtian... will most likely be destroyed as a result!"
Yunze frowned slightly.
It is said that cultivators should cut off the mortal world, but many people say this, but very few can actually do it.
Either he has become a Taoist cultivator, and after hundreds of years, all blood relatives have been cut off, so he will have this kind of character.
But for a person like Ji Shan who still has blood relatives, even if he becomes an immortal cultivator, how can he cut off the seven emotions and six desires?
According to him, Ji Xiu was so talented that even if he was delayed in the mortal world for a few years and the war was calmed down, he would still be able to rejoin the path of cultivating immortals.
When the time comes, the most important thing is to follow his path and enter the Immortal Mansion. There is really no need to enter the Tao at this moment.
but……
The young senior sister said that this Ji Xiu must be accepted as his disciple no matter what!
As for the reason, Yunze also asked Yunxiao.
However, the answer I got was somewhat surprising.
Dream!
She dreamed that Tu Xiu told her personally that Ji Xiu, the third prince of the Chengtian Dynasty, was responsible for her hope of condensing the elixir!
You must know that after people who cultivate immortality reach the foundation-building realm, they can not only reach the realm of Bigu, but also no longer need to sleep. They can replenish their energy and spirit simply by practicing.
But Yunxiao was dreaming!
Therefore, this discipline cultivator must be admitted to Tongtian Academy no matter what!
Brother Keji's family can't ignore it either.
Just as Yunze frowned, Ziji, who was playing with the tea set next to him, suddenly raised his head and looked at the two of them.
"Senior Ji, Mr. Tu, I have a plan that might get the best of both worlds."
