Jiang Feng originally wanted to say "I am," but he saw that the red robe on the person who came was of extraordinary quality, and there was a magic weapon with orange light in his hand. It was with this object that he came from the void and was able to hold such a treasure.
He is definitely not a good person. More importantly, this person is introverted in his cultivation and cannot see the realm clearly.
"That'll be easy."
The black-bearded monk smiled and let out all his restrained cultivation. He changed from simple and unpretentious to sharp-edged. He actually reached the perfection of golden elixir and reached the realm of Nascent Soul. This made Jiang Feng secretly take a breath of cold air and thought this.
He couldn't have just watched the previous fight and come here to kill people and seize treasures. Thinking about this, he couldn't help pouring all his spiritual power into the talisman "Qingfengwuying" in his sleeve.
"Don't run yet!" Unexpectedly, the monk's perception was very keen. He shouted out from the corner of his mouth and threw out several pale talismans at the same time, cutting off all the nearby space. Jiang Feng was stunned and thought he had lost the chance to escape.
, after observing carefully, I found that what the other party used was some kind of special sound insulation.
"Your Excellency, I haven't asked for your name yet." Jiang Feng took three steps back and clenched the talisman in his hand.
"Oh, I almost forgot to introduce myself." The big man embarrassedly touched the messy hair on the back of his head, "I am Zhao Jiyuan, the dean of Zen Heart Academy."
Never heard of it... Jiang Feng subconsciously wanted to deal with it, and suddenly remembered that this "Zen Heart Courtyard" was one of the five courtyards under the old man Jiu. Leng Tingtao once popularized the common sense of the old man Jiu, and once mentioned it to him.
I have been there and found that this courtyard was under the supervision of Xu Funing, the last of the Nine Old Men. In addition, this "Zen Heart Yuan" was also a link that could not be bypassed when helping Tu Shan reshape his body and obtain legal documents.
"Long time admiration, long time admiration." Jiang Feng quickly changed his attitude and understood that this person was probably a subordinate of Xu Funing, the ninth old man. Although he didn't know what the authority of the "dean" was, he would probably ask for help from him in the future.
"Oh? You know me?"
"No, I just heard about your reputation by chance. The name of Chanxinyuan is famous all over the world, and how many people don't know about it." This was the first time he encountered such a compliment that he took seriously, so Jiang Feng had to round up his words to avoid embarrassment.
"Look, let me tell you, this is the first time I have heard of your name, and you are a leader, right?"
"I am not talented, but I am in charge of the Qianshan Sect." Jiang Feng was ashamed. Although the attitude of the guy in front of him was not unruly, every word he said always felt unpleasant to his ears, like a ray of light on his back.
"Is it hard to be the leader?"
"Fortunately, taking charge of a party has its own advantages and disadvantages compared with being independent, but it is also often burdened with mundane affairs, and occasionally it is a little tiring..." This question made Jiang Feng completely unable to figure out the other party's routine. It stands to reason that you have something to say, but you
It's the usual rhythm of chatting. The problem is that with your status and cultivation level, and the fact that I may ask for something from you in the future, I can't help but get close to you. Also, if it's just a small talk, why do you use the isolation note? Look.
This talisman seems to be of extraordinary quality and expensive.
"Well, it's good to get used to it. It seems that you still like your current position." The big man rubbed the beard on his cheeks and seemed to be thinking about what to ask, "Do you, the Qianshan Sect, have any valuable specialties?"
"It's embarrassing to say that the Qianshan Sect's spiritual veins are barren and there are not many products."
"How much is your income this year?"
"This year's income is still being calculated. The Qianshan Sect has been carrying out a lot of construction work recently and has spent a lot of money. The accounts will not be fully sorted out until the end of the year. Judging from last year's records, the sect's income is not much." Jiang Feng couldn't help but lick the dryness.
His lips asked, "I wonder if you, senior, are here to inspect this place despite your busy schedule. Do you have any advice?" He simply used the word "senior" to address Zhao Jiyuan, who is perfect in the golden elixir, and thought to himself, what are you here to do? Tell me quickly.
, building relationships is important, but I am still anxious to run away.
"I'm just asking casually, don't be nervous." Zhao Jiyuan waved his hand to signal Jiang Feng not to panic, "I'm just here to accept a disciple for my master. He wants to accept you as a nominal disciple."
"I wonder who the master of my senior is?"
"Xu Funing."
"Why is this?" Jiang Feng was confused. Xu Funing naturally knew it, but he had never had a relationship with him so far. How could he suddenly accept him as a nominal disciple.
"You don't need to know why, you just need to know that the term of this nominal disciple is only five years."
Five years? Jiang Feng suddenly remembered Li Zhenlong’s promise of protection to him before. Could it be that he wanted to fulfill it in this way? Becoming the disciple of Xu Funing, the last of the Nine Old Men, was indeed equivalent to an extra layer of protection, so he asked in a low voice.
He said, "Is this the chief's order?"
"What chief? What does this have to do with him? Don't talk nonsense!" Zhao Jiyuan subconsciously looked around, but saw that the light of the insulation note was still as bright as before, with no sign of dissipating, so he felt relieved, "It's mine.
Master happened to pass by here and found your bones..."
"No, you don't have any extraordinary appearance at all. I found out that you are promising at a young age... No, at your age, there are many people with higher cultivation and achievements than you... I found out about your appearance, no, it's not right
, your Dharma Appearance is really mediocre, and the fighting Dharma Appearance is not considered... Hey, I found you..." Zhao Jiyuan shook his head repeatedly and complained with an unhappy face, "You! Think about it quickly, what are your strengths and what can you do?
To make my master love talents and accept you as his disciple, this must be reasonable!"
This is really difficult for me.
Jiang Feng naturally understands Zhao Jiyuan's excuse just now. It is obvious that it must be Chief Li Zhenlong's will to allow heaven-level monk Xu Funing to send disciples to indirectly accept him as his disciple. However, the truth cannot be told to anyone, otherwise he will be seeking death.
.But when it comes to strengths, he thought about it, but he didn't find anything special about him. Of course, he has the marks left by several old immortals who don't mean what they say and will not save them even if they die. This is true.
Many people can't do it, but you can't talk about it to outsiders.
"I'm lucky." Jiang Feng could only make up a sentence casually.
"You really know how to make things up, aren't you blushing?" Zhao Jiyuan snorted, "Forget it, I heard that your sect hasn't chosen the enshrinement yet, why not just choose my master as the enshrinement? Such an excuse is barely enough.
It makes sense, after all, my master doesn’t have any worship sect yet.”
"But..." Jiang Feng suddenly felt that he was at a loss. Li Zhenlong had promised to protect him for five years, but he didn't say that he would offer it to the sect himself, and he didn't have any extra spiritual stones to present.
"But what? My master accepts you as a nominal disciple, and you will claim to be a true disciple to the outside world. Then do you think that once the news spreads, you will have other opportunities to choose the sect to worship, and the result will be the same? Don't worry, I
Master is in charge of the three courtyards and doesn’t care about your few spiritual stones."
True disciple, that's good. Although the essence is fake and nothing will be taught to me, it is enough to protect myself from some accidental harm. As for not wanting the spirit stone, that would be the best. Jiang Feng felt slightly calm, and immediately
Another practical question comes to mind:
"Senior brother, but what should I do in five years?" He said "senior brother" in a smooth tone. It was obvious that he could not refuse the offer given by the other party.
"Five years later, you were expelled from the door by Master because you violated the commandments."
"This...why is this?" Jiang Feng couldn't help but be speechless.
"You have to think of the reasons yourself at that time. As for why it is five years, don't you know very well in your mind? However, little junior brother, you can do a lot of things in five years. Master is actually not a completely unreasonable person. If you can
Once you reach my level, Master will surely have a love for talents and personally retain you."
Within five years, you will reach your level... Do you think that the golden elixir is made of earth and will become bigger and stronger if you roll it in the mud? Unless you take out the golden elixir and give it to me now, Jiang Feng
I couldn't help but sigh secretly, but then I thought about it, it's better to get over the current situation and focus on the future.
"Is Master's name really enough to guarantee my safety within five years?"
"At least the monks from major sects should not be in trouble with you, but you must first not seek death. As for those casual cultivators who are not following you, there is no guarantee that they will not covet the ancient treasures on your body. From another perspective, if
I am a courageous casual cultivator, but I still want to crush you and see what the ancient treasure is like."
"This... senior brother, do you have any more ways to crack it?" Seeing Zhao Jiyuan's fingers on his right hand making a clicking sound, Jiang Feng was really worried that he would really try it.
"Of course there is. I am in charge of the Zen Heart Courtyard. The dungeon inside is safe enough. If you are willing, you will not be killed if you stay in it for the rest of your life."
"Forget it." Jiang Feng knew that after a few words of conversation, Senior Brother Zhao Jiyuan returned to his true nature and could no longer argue with him. "If you are trapped in prison, your life will be worse than death."
"Let me correct you, life is definitely better than death." Zhao Jiyuan smiled, "This is the common view of most prisoners in the dungeon. However, junior brother, although you are not willing to go, you still want to go to Zen with me.
Heart courtyard."
"Why?" Jiang Feng couldn't help but feel a chill in his back.
"It will take some time for the news that Master has accepted you as his disciple to be known to the major sects. During this time, they are likely to pretend not to know and look for trouble with you."
"What senior brother said is absolutely true, how long will it take?"
"One year is the safest."
"One year?" Jiang Feng was surprised, "One year, my sect?" He subconsciously stretched out his hand and pointed into the distance. Behind the vast mountains, peaceful villages and towns lay across the sky.
"It's just a small sect, and isn't it protected by the sect?"
"I also want to participate in the Shiqian Alliance." Jiang Feng found that although Zhao Jiyuan seemed to be arrogant and ignorant, he had done some homework in advance, and he immediately thought of a recent arrangement.
"With all the leaders of the Li Sect gone, do you think this alliance can still continue?"
"That's true." Jiang Feng couldn't help but sigh. He didn't expect that the previous melee would end with Zhu Qianmu's death. In this way, this Shiqian Alliance meeting must have been cancelled. It's a pity that Xiao Ming really meant well.
"Brother, I'm busy with trivial matters. I don't know how long I need to stay in the Zen Heart Courtyard in the shortest time?" Jiang Feng then thought of the gathering with Baiyao Laoxian and others on January 28th next year. He didn't know if he would miss it, plus Chu
The matter of Menyutan is still waiting for me to investigate, and the Dharma conference promised to everyone in the sect is still two times away, not to mention the various general affairs in the sect waiting to be decided by myself, such as the ascension conference.
It would be slightly inappropriate not to attend...
"Well, how about it be an auspicious day, the 7749th?"
Forty-nine days, it's still too late. The news that Xu Funing accepted him as his disciple must have spread to all the surrounding sects. Of course, there may be those who realize it later, or those who deceive others, but if you think that way, even if
Waiting for a year, or even two years, is just as dangerous.
"Okay. Senior brother, when I return to the sect, I will give you a few words."
"No need, leave now. If you delay for too long, I won't be able to protect you." Before Jiang Feng could reply, a dazzling white light lit up on the magic weapon in Zhao Jiyuan's hand, suddenly tearing apart the surrounding space, and the two of them were
Wrapped inside, like a shooting star, it took Dao Lizong and headed straight to the northwest.
…………
Li Zong, Zhenwu City.
Han Li looked at the roster in his hand and couldn't help but feel ups and downs in his heart.
He had just received an order from the sect. He, along with the other six people, had been accepted as a nominal disciple of Master Feng. Although he was a nominal disciple, he would visit Master Feng alone twice a year to ask about opportunities and once a year.
Disciples from the same family generally participate in small Dharma gatherings for teaching and teaching. It can be said that the treatment is between nominal disciples and true disciples.
These seven people have one thing in common. They are not the descendants of the five major families of Zhu, Yu, Bai, Xiao, and Chu, but they are more or less involved with the five major families. For example, he is actually the son-in-law of the Xiao family. On the one hand,
This shows the new atmosphere of the sect, that is, the children from poor families have the opportunity to stand out. On the other hand, it also declares to the many monks who understand the truth that actively getting closer to the five families is the right way.
This is not a contradiction. Every monk in a large sect should understand that it is a beautiful ideal to be alone, to make a big impact and to know the truth. Only by kneeling in front of the powerful and powerful can you have a chance to get ahead. The only difference is,
The kneeling position can vary from person to person.
Han Li has long understood this truth.
Of course, this news also changed the direction and revealed a fact within the sect: Uncle Feng had no intention of getting involved in the position of head. Otherwise, there would be no need for him to suddenly accept disciples at this juncture, so as to preach and teach with peace of mind.
It seems that the position of leader has not been settled yet.
Han Li couldn't help but hold his breath and refine his mind. He knew that this matter was too far away for him. Hearing that the Feixiong Army and the Chiluan Army were about to be rectified, the head of the family, Xiao Daoming, had hinted to him more than once that he could do some appropriate activities. He also
At the same time, he would strive for a better position for himself. Thinking of this, he showed determination and clenched the storage bag in his sleeve. At this time, he suddenly felt something in his heart, and the coldness on his face melted away.
"Sister Shan, why are you here?" He turned his head, and his unique warm smile spread out.
"If you have time, I will take you to meet Zhu Zhenhuai. He is Zhu Zhenluo's fourth brother."
"The one with the loudest voice?" Han Li couldn't help but ask. Naturally, he was referring to Zhu Zhenluo, one of the talents in the clan that the previous leader Zhu Qianmu paid most attention to during his lifetime.
"Yes, I am familiar with Kong Xianglin, Zhu Zhenhuai's second wife. This time it is thanks to her relationship. I have prepared the gifts." Xiao Mingshan unfolded a vermilion lacquer wooden box, which contained two azure porcelain bottles.
Han Li picked up one of the elixirs, sniffed it, and found that it was a good-quality Zhuyan elixir.
"Isn't this what I gave you?"
"Compared to your future, husband, this elixir is not important." Xiao Mingshan closed the wooden box with a look of admiration in her eyes, "Why, Brother Li, I am the youngest?"
…………
Flying higher and higher.
The wind roared loudly in my ears, and the turbulence was like a knife cutting. After flying past for nearly ten hours, the light group carrying Jiang Feng fell sharply downwards, like a bird returning to its nest. By the time everything became clear, Jiang Feng was already far away.
Under the clouds, I saw an ancient town with tall walls and clear water.
"This is the Zen Heart City, which is self-contained and specially built for the Zen Heart Institute." Senior brother Zhao Jiyuan's voice came to his ears, and then he saw two streams of light, one red and one blue, rising into the sky and heading straight towards the two of them.
"When I detected a strange smell, I didn't expect that it was Vice President Zhao bringing someone to visit."
The stream of light approached, and two figures appeared, one old and one young, both of whom were monsters. The old man had white beard and hair, was slightly fat, and was in the middle of the prefecture level. The young man was wearing a green gauze square scarf and had a
The purpose of the black ribbon is unknown, but the cultivation level is higher, but it is still in the middle of the prefecture level.
"I've said it many times, when you say hello, you have to remove the word 'vice'."
"Yes, Vice President Zhao."
"No big one, no small one!" Zhao Jiyuan scolded with a smile, "Let me introduce, this is my junior brother, Jiang Feng!"
