Chapter 292 Bridge Mountain
The matter of becoming a disciple was finally settled. Lin Bai breathed a sigh of relief and held Mo Yingcheng's hand tightly.
"We will be a family from now on." Lin Bai knew that Mo Yingcheng was a man of noble character, and the others had passable characters regardless of how they did things. It was definitely a good thing for Sister Pei to join the Taoist Yin Sect.
After sighing for a long time, Lin Bai came again to ask about the etiquette of becoming a disciple and what he needed to prepare.
Although Lin Bai had also accepted apprentices, he had only just established the foundation level when he accepted apprentices. The two apprentices were both yellow-haired little girls, so naturally there was no need to be too solemn, and a cup of tea would be considered a formality.
But now he is a high-level disciple of Nascent Soul, and he is not in the Qiaoshan area. He doesn't know whether the etiquette is complicated or whether he needs to invite people to watch the ceremony.
"Kowtow and forget about it." Mo Ying knew what Lin Bai meant, "Since you have become a master, you are no longer an outsider. Besides, master doesn't really like to deal with nonsense, so just kowtow and call him master." ”
"Chen Tianren deserves the name of a heavenly being." Lin Bai sighed.
Lin Bai also planned to learn from Chen Tianren's teaching methods so that he could teach Miaomiao in accordance with his aptitude in the future.
After chatting for a while, it was agreed that the apprenticeship ceremony would be held ten days later, and Mo Yingcheng left immediately.
Only Lin Bai and Mu Zhen were left in the courtyard.
"Sister Zhen, Pei Ning has joined the high school. As a senior, you have to be considerate, right?" Lin Bai grabbed Mu Zhen's sleeve.
"..." Mu Zhen was stunned for a moment, and finally became impatient and said angrily: "Lin Zhuanlun, do you think I am Taoist Duobao? You love Pei Ning and you can do it yourself. What does it have to do with me?"
"I just said it casually." Lin Bai was aggrieved and did not dare to argue.
"However, what you said makes sense." Mu Zhen actually showed a smile and said: "I was also a witness when you and Pei Ning were conspiring together. You should express yourself."
"I know that Sister Zhen loves to support the juniors the most!" Lin Bai quickly stepped forward to say nice things.
"As for what to give, I have to think carefully." Mu Zhen pushed Lin Bai away, got up and walked into the house.
Lin Bai couldn't help but hesitate when he saw that the room was gloomy and that if he went in, he would be exploited.
"Are you coming?" Mu Zhen walked to the door, turned her head, spoke softly, and raised her eyes.
When she was in the secret realm of Endless River, she kept getting angry. After returning to Daoyin Sect, she had not been intimate with her yet. It seemed that she had recovered from her injuries and could no longer hang up her avoidance card.
Close the door and create a world of its own.
"Whether they are ordinary people or the powerful ones who guard the world, in the end they will be wiped out by loess and destroyed by smoke and dust. How many people can live and watch for a long time?"
After all the ups and downs, Mu Zhen became more interested. He pinched Lin Bai's flesh and said, "The sword intention is stagnant in your body, but it seems to be tempering your body all the time. Not only do you recover faster, you are more condensed than before."
Now that I’m full, I’m reviewing the dishes. Lin Bai naturally followed her and did not answer the call.
"I don't know when we will see you next time." Mu Zhen actually felt sad.
"Sister Zhen, what are you doing in the north?" Lin Bai was very curious.
"Go and see why the war started and where its source is." Mu Zhen smiled and asked in a low voice: "Do you want to go?"
"The intention of the sword has not disappeared, and the magic weapon has not yet been completed. I don't plan to go out." Lin Bai didn't want to go out and take risks. He could just go home and take care of his apprentice.
Mu Zhen nodded, not forcing herself more, but becoming more gentle.
"Sister Zhen, that treasure you promised..." Halfway through the journey, Lin Bai brought up old matters again.
"I can't do without you!" Mu Zhen was not as angry as before. Maybe it was because he was used to it, but instead smiled coquettishly.
Hearing this, Lin Bai felt relieved, and seeing that she was extra attentive and willing to try anything, he no longer worried.
At dawn the next day, Lin Bai finally woke up in a daze, but Sister Zhen was nowhere to be seen.
"Don't run away, right?"
Lin Bai was shocked and hurried out. When he saw Dugu Yan and Dugu Jing chatting by themselves, he asked.
"Senior Mu said that if I discuss Tao with you overnight, I will gain something. I have to choose a place to enlighten myself." Dugu Yan answered honestly.
"Choose... choose a place? Doesn't that mean he ran away?" Lin Bai was stunned.
"Sir, Senior Mu has something to give me before he leaves." Dugu Jing took out a letter and presented it with both hands.
What can't be said on the bed, but why should I write a letter? Lin Bai took it and tore it open to take a look.
Sure enough, there were only four words: I'm leaving first.
After all, he ran away. The affection last night was nothing but false, I just ran away this morning...
Women really can't believe it.
Lin Bai felt that he couldn't even do such a thing!
"Eat my food, drink my food, and run away in the end!"
There was nothing he could do, Lin Bai touched his waist, knowing that he could only suffer the loss.
I went to Mo Yingcheng again and asked, only to find out that Mu Zhen had really been here.
"She has decided to leave, and I can't stop her." Mo Yingcheng also lamented, "She came to say goodbye to me early this morning, and said that you worked hard to stay. She was afraid that you would be too sad, and she was afraid that Pei Ning would blame her, so she asked me to take a moment. Soothing.”
Mo Yingcheng spoke with a smile on his face, and then said in a low voice: "Junior Brother Zhuanlun is always merciful. He is indeed a romantic person."
"..." Lin Bai had no choice but to deal with it by laughing.
After asking about etiquette again, Lin Bai returned to Daishan without mentioning Mu Zhen's departure. He only told Sister Pei about Chen Tianren's acceptance of a disciple.
"I have been in Daoyin Sect for a long time. Although the background here is not as good as Qiaoshan, Chen Tianren is famous, and the senior brothers and sisters are kind and gentle. You and I have received a single word of kindness from Chen Tianren in the past, and now I can be a disciple of Chen Tianren, and I am naturally happy. Extremely." Pei Ning agreed.
The matter was settled, and there was no need to think about it any more, so he meditated quietly and waited for the apprenticeship ceremony to be completed.
There was nothing to do, but Sister Pei didn't want to indulge in bed anymore, so Lin Bai checked what he had gained from his trip to Jiuzhe Mountain.
In a quiet room, he set up a formation and took out the fragments of the stone plate.
In the secret realm of Endless River, I got plum tree fruit and stone plate fragments on the top of the mountain. Mu Zhen took away the chessboard.
He held the fragment in his hand and rubbed it carefully. It didn't feel mysterious at all, he just felt it was an ordinary thing.
He probed into the spiritual power and consciousness, but there was no reaction at all.
But vaguely, it feels extremely close, as if it was taken from oneself.
Previously, in the secret realm of Endless River, I felt a strong sense of auspiciousness in my heart, so I knew that this thing must be suitable for me. It's just that due to my state of mind and vision, I still can't recognize the magical effect.
"This object is indeed my natal stone plate, but it broke for unknown reasons. How many pieces did it break into? Who broke it? Who was the previous owner?"
"Now that we have this thing, do we still need to refine the gourd into a magic weapon for life?"
"This thing should be left by the Taoist Wuxiang Taoist and used by the Taoist Wuxiang Taoist?"
"How should I use it? My life has derived the ability to seek good luck and avoid evil, and it can also cause death and end life, and it can also trace the traces. If Master Wuxiang Taoist teaches the law, time and space go hand in hand, then What effect does the stone plate have? ”
After thinking about it for a long time, I got nothing.
He closed his eyes and came to the stone plate. A wisp of green was still there. This was Aunt Gu's dog leash. The white color of the moon is thicker, which shows that Xiu Xiu is really making great progress with each passing day.
Sitting down and meditating, Lin Bai looked at the stone plate under him.
In fact, Lin Bai had spent an unknown amount of time here, and he had already become aware of the lines and cracks on the stone plate like palm prints.
After pondering for a while, he found a place that matched the obtained fragment. It's just that the fragments were as big as a fist, but here they were more than a hundred times larger.
Lin Bai looked at the lines carefully and drew in a cloud of mist. He tried to imitate its shape, but it dispersed. After all, it was difficult to do so.
"The stone plate here and the fragments outside are the same thing. It is naturally impossible. Or am I not feeling the mystery?"
Lin Bai murmured for a while, but had no idea.
Anyway, this fragment must be of great use, just not today, but in the future.
If the fragments can be combined to form a stone plate, the object of destiny will be formed, which must be more mysterious.
Lin Bai no longer bothered about this matter and just focused on meditation. Anyway, once the realm is raised, many things will be easily solved.
In a few days, it will be an auspicious day to become a disciple.
There were no special etiquettes prepared. In addition to the seven disciples under Chen Tianren, there were also the three golden elixir stewards in the sect. The only people watching the ceremony were Qu Ruyi and Huang Ruhua. They were very close and loved to join in the fun.
After the apprenticeship ceremony, Chen Tianren gave him a rusty sword, which he had worn in the past. After a few more words, Pei Ning was told to go find him if he had any questions, and then he clapped his hands and called it a night.
Thinking back to the pomp and circumstance when I collected Miaomiao, it seems that it was not as perfunctory as it was today. Lin Bai had also seen Chen Tianren's eclectic style.
"Junior Brother Zhuan Lun, don't worry about it. We are new to the Taoist Hidden Sect and have always been simple." Mo Yingcheng was a kind-hearted person. He was afraid of Lin Bai's grudge, so he did not forget to explain it afterwards.
Lin Bai didn't pay much attention to these false gifts and wouldn't say anything. Anyway, the master-disciple status has been decided, and Sister Pei will have a new world in the future.
After the apprenticeship ceremony was over, Lin Bai was not in a hurry to return to Qiaoshan and continued to stay and continue his meditation.
Pei Ning was the last of Chen Tianren's many disciples. He moved away from Meishan and went to Yufan Mountain to live with Dugu Yan.
Lin Bai helped Sister Pei understand the meaning of the sword every day, and taught Dugu Jing the formation from time to time, which was a pleasant life.
Another half year passed. When Lin Bai was meditating, Dugu Yan came to the door with Gu Yao.
Lin Bai thought it was Aunt Gu who came to urge him to do something, but he didn't think there was another reason.
"The ancestor of the Cheng family passed away. Uncle Jiuchong and Cheng Shuang went to visit Chen Tianren. I specifically asked Senior Sister Dugu to come find you." Gu Yao did not hesitate and simply said that she was here for the funeral.
Lin Bai didn't have a deep impression of the ancestor of the Cheng family. He only knew that he was the oldest and did not have many years to live. Moreover, the last time Lu Haike was surrounded and killed, he had tried his best, and I was afraid that the inside would have been ruined long ago.
Now his death is not unexpected.
"You should go back too." Gu Yao joked: "Now people in Qiaoshan say that my Gu family worked hard to raise a golden elixir, but it was robbed by the Daoyin Sect."
Lin Bai immediately became anxious and said loudly: "Do you believe this? I am loyal to my ancestor! The sun can teach me a lesson!"
"I didn't say I believed it, so why are you anxious?" Gu Yao crossed her arms and smiled, "Pei Ning joined the Daoyin Sect, do you have this idea?"
"My ancestors have been so kind to me that I can't even repay them. How can I join them again?"
Lin Bai made a quibble, changed the subject, and asked, "Why didn't Miaomiao and Xiao Yu'er follow you? I've been here for so long, and they didn't say anything about sending a message or anything."
"Both of them have their own assignments. Miaomiao is detained in Fengming Mountain as a preacher and teaches, and Jiang Yu is refining elixirs in her home, Fire Cave Mansion. Both of them are very busy!" Gu Yao said.
"That's it." Lin Bai nodded and sighed: "Busy, everyone is busy, it's better to be busy."
"It's not that they are busy. It seems that they have committed a crime and are not allowed to go out." Gu Yao smiled.
Don't think too much, it must be Miaomiao's fault.
Without asking any more questions, Lin Bai and Gu Yao went to look for Gu Jiuchong.
At this time, Gu Jiuzhong had paid a visit to Chen Tianren and was talking to Mo Yingcheng in the side hall.
Cheng Shuang stood aside, wearing a black robe. He was not as cheerful as before, but looked sad.
Next to Mo Yingcheng stood Shen Qiyun, as well as Qu Ruyi and Huang Ruhua.
Qu Ruyi first met Cheng Shuang in the Wordless Secret Realm. The two of them watched mung beans and formed a deep friendship. Now that the ancestor of the Cheng family has died, Qu Ruyi hurriedly came to see her little sisters.
"It's time for you to go back to Qiaoshan. Everyone is talking about you." When Gu Jiuzhong saw Lin Bai coming, he refused to let him go.
Lin Bai naturally agreed, he also wanted to take care of Auntie.
After chatting for a while, Gu Jiuzhong stopped staying any longer, took Gu Yao and Cheng Shuang with him, and headed south to visit the Yunxia Sect.
Lin Bai didn't hesitate, spent the night with Pei Ning, and then went to say goodbye to Dugu Hao. He was going to leave alone, but Qu Ruyi pestered him and insisted on following.
Huang Ruhua was led astray by Qu Ruyi and wanted to follow her.
Lin Bai lost his temper, so he took two women and one snake with him, crossed the Endless River, bypassed the sandy land of Thousand Valleys, and then headed towards Qiaoshan.
After leaving the two of them in Xinyi Square, Lin Bai did not go to see his old friend, but went directly to Qiaoshan to send Qingyun Mountain.
After being away for a long time, I returned to Qiaoshan and felt a little more solemn.
Looking at the blessed land of Xianqiao from a distance, I feel that there is no way back.
"Senior." Gu Wushang greeted Gu Fang.
Lin Bai nodded, casually asked about Qiaoshan's current situation, and then followed Gu Wushang to Water Curtain Cave.
The two of them came to the outside of Gu Yao Cave and continued walking up.
Soon I saw a pool of water surrounded by green trees. There is a waterfall at the end, which is where Gu Qingshui meditates.
Quickly stepping forward to salute, Lin Baixin said that this time he could finally walk through the main entrance.
Sure enough, a wisp of clear water came to cover him. Lin Bai didn't dare to resist, and he was involved in it in an instant.
Although he walked through the main entrance, he didn't step in by himself.
Hearing the sound of water in his ears, he opened his eyes and saw a person sitting in front of him, wearing a light green palace dress, with black hair hanging behind him.
"Ancestor!" Lin Bai quickly stepped forward and knelt down next to Gu Qingshui.
Gu Qingshui couldn't stand Lin Bai's affection. She shook her head slightly, stared at Lin Bai for a while, and asked, "Are you injured?"
"It's an old injury in the secret realm of Jiuzhe Mountain. It doesn't matter." Lin Bai said.
Gu Qingshui didn't say anything, she gently raised the catkin and pointed it towards Lin Bai's eyebrows.
Her body is slightly thin, her palms are slender, and her nails are pink and soft as water.
Lin Bai remained still, feeling a slight coolness between his brows, and then the coolness spread throughout his body.
Gu Qingshui took back her hand, nodded slightly, and said, "It seems that your trip was worthwhile."
"If not for the mercy of my ancestor, I would not have this chance." Lin Bai asked sincerely, "Ancestor, does he know who this sword intention comes from?"
Gu Qingshui did not answer, but said: "Please tell me in detail what happened during this trip."
Lin Bai did not dare to hide his secrets, so he immediately told them one by one. Even the matter of working together with Mu Zhen to kill people and the matter of removing the sword intention were all mentioned.
After Gu Qingshui listened, she pondered for a long time but did not speak.
