If there had been an elder accepting a disciple when he first entered the sect, Qi Fan would have jumped to his feet. After all, he didn't know many things about monks at that time.
But now, alas, I can only sigh. I have too many secrets in my body, and I can only think about those pleasant scenes. I don’t have a life with a mountain on my back.
Qi Fan finally replied: "Senior Brother Duan, please tell Elder Nie that I know my talent is not good, so I don't dare to deceive the elders, so as not to ruin the reputation of the elders. I really don't have this blessing. Thank you, elder, for your kindness."
Qi Fan still knew how wrong he was, so it would be best to simply decline like this. Who knows what kind of temper Elder Nie is? Anyway, he gave the elder enough face from the beginning to the end.
If this elder really meant it, Qi Fan would have no choice but to accept it. His little arms couldn't hold up his thighs.
There is a saying in the world that if life fucks you and you are unable to resist, then enjoy it.
As for leaving the sect, Qi Fan has never thought about it. The first reason is because of familiarity and nostalgia. The second reason is because he has been a casual cultivator and knows the hardships of being a casual cultivator. He does not want to repeat his previous life.
Duan Qian was still imagining what Qi Fan would bring to him in the future when he became the elder's disciple, with a look of longing on his face. When he heard Qi Fan's answer, he subconsciously said: "I agreed, okay, I'll do it now."
Go talk to the elders."
In his subconscious mind, it was impossible for anyone to reject an elder's intention to recruit a disciple. If he had already agreed, it was a bit unexpected for Qi Fan to think about it for so long.
He stood up and walked for two steps before he realized what was happening. He turned back to look at Qi Fan and stammered: "Master, junior brother, what did you say?"
Qi Fan looked at him helplessly: "Senior Brother Duan, please tell Elder Nie that I know my talent is not good, so I don't dare to deceive the elders, so as not to ruin the reputation of the elders. I really don't have this blessing. Thank you for your kindness, elders."
.”
Duan Qian's face suddenly flushed, and he sat down excitedly and said, "Junior brother, do you know what you are talking about? You refused... Wuwuwu"
Qi Fan saw Duan Qian's voice getting louder and louder, and quickly blocked his mouth, and whispered: "Brother, please be quieter." He turned around and looked around, showing his face to everyone.
gave an apologetic smile.
He didn't want everyone to know about this. An elder took the initiative to recruit a disciple, but was rejected by a disciple? If this spread, would the elder still have the dignity? Will Qi Fan still be alive?
After Qi Fan's reminder, Duan Qian also woke up and his eyes indicated that he knew. Qi Fan then released his palm.
Duan Qian looked around, moved a little closer to Qi Fan, and whispered: "Junior brother, you have to think carefully. This is an elder recruiting a disciple, and it is also Elder Nie."
"As far as I know, Elder Nie is the only elder in the sect who has never accepted a disciple. If you become his disciple, you will be the chief disciple, and you will be able to pass on the mantle in the future. Don't you understand?"
"This means that you don't have to fight for resources like others. Everything Elder Nie has is yours, and he will do his best to train you."
To be honest, Qi Fan became more and more itchy after being told by Duan Qian, but he still said: "I know all this. Senior brother, just tell Elder Nie my exact words directly. Junior brother also has his own considerations."
Duan Qian looked at Qi Fan's serious expression and could only sigh and said: "Okay, since you have thought it through clearly, senior brother will not say more, so as not to blame senior brother for meddling in other people's business."
Qi Fan smiled and said: "How could it be possible? Senior brother is the best. You are all doing it for my own good. How could I think so?"
Duan Qian shook his head again and let out a long sigh: "Then you should go back first. I'll go talk to the elders."
After saying that, he walked away slowly, his back looking like a heartbroken old father. When he reached the corner, he looked back, expecting Qi Fan to change his mind, but the stone table just now was empty.
In the inner courtyard, an old man with half-white hair and piercing eyes was sitting in a pavilion drinking tea, wearing a white robe and silver-trimmed Taoist robe that symbolized the elder's status. There were cranes and white clouds curling above the Taoist robe.
The Taoist robes of Xuanyuan Sect are all different. Outer disciples such as Qi Fan wear white robes with green edges and no patterns, while inner disciples wear white robes with black edges and fish swimming around the hem.
The elders wear white robes with silver trim and cranes and white clouds. The sect leader's clothes are white robes with gold trim and cranes and white clouds, but there is an additional pattern of yin and yang on the back.
Duan Qian stood respectfully outside the pavilion, lowered his head and said Qi Fan's words intact. This old man was Elder Nie who was interested in accepting a disciple.
Elder Nie picked up the tea cup and tasted it carefully. After a while, he said: "Oh? You refused? That's interesting. If it's like this, forget it. You can step back."
It's interesting, just a little bit interesting, but it doesn't mean that he will really take this matter to heart. A five-spirit root is not worth what he does.
Duan Qian respectfully withdrew. After leaving the inner courtyard, he realized that his palms were all sweaty, for fear that the elder would get angry and punish Qi Fan.
Thinking of Qi Fan's appearance, his face darkened. Xiaofan, Xiaofan, you really look alike.
After Qi Fan left the main hall of the mission hall, he came to a side hall next to it. This is the exchange point under the mission hall, called Dibao Tower.
Every time you complete a task, you will also receive merit points in addition to the reward of the task itself. This is also another way that the sect uses to train disciples.
Merit points are used for transactions in Dibao Tower. Of course, you can also exchange them for some elixirs and magic weapons.
Gold and silver can also be used, but gold and silver are the lowest-grade currencies and can only be used for some low-level healing medicines and low-level Guyuan Dan.
Qi Fan has been to Dibao Tower a few times, but there are not many good things. The main target is outer disciples.
And Qi Fan once heard that there is actually a Tianbao Tower in the inner sect. That is the real good place, and the disciples of the inner sect basically do business there.
The Dibao Building occupies a small area and only has one floor. There are not many people inside. In other words, except for a few people in the outer gate, the rest of the people rarely come here.
Qi Fan stepped in. The young man at the counter looked a few years older than Qi Fan. He said with a smile: "Senior Brother Qi, what do you need?"
Because not many people came, and Qi Fan happened to be one of those with higher cultivation among this group of people, the young man remembered Qi Fan.
Qi Fan also smiled and said: "Get me some better healing elixir. The injury this time is relatively serious."
The young man's name is Su Pingan. He has an ordinary name and an ordinary person. Like Qi Fan, he has five spiritual roots.
It's just that he doesn't have Qi Fan's luck. Like most people, he doesn't have the opportunity to practice. Even he was able to enter Xuanyuan Sect because of the gospel of his ancestors. But now his ancestors have passed away.
When he met Qi Fan for the first time and learned that Qi Fan also had five spiritual roots, no one was more shocked than him. Only those with five spiritual roots could know how lucky he was to be a monk and to reach Qi Fan's level.
It's even rarer.
From that day on, Qi Fan was the person he admired the most, no one.
And Qi Fan is the same, if you are good to me, I will be good to you. If you make me unhappy, I will ask you to go back. He is such a straightforward person.
After going back and forth, the two of them became familiar with each other.
