Chapter 114 It turns out to be you! [Thanks to ‘Little Zhefu’ for the 20,000 reward! 】
Baiyu Island.
Port office.
Chen Jichuan took Wu Shouyang, Zhong Dahai and other eleven disciples off the boat.
"Finally here."
"This is Baiyu Island? It's so beautiful."
"It looks like a town. I thought there were fairy palaces overseas, built on the clouds."
Among the disciples there were those who had a lively temperament. Everything they saw was new. They looked left and right, but they couldn't see enough. They talked non-stop.
Some are introverted and reserved. They have been wandering for half a year and sailed tens of thousands of miles. Now they have finally arrived at their destination, with smiles on their faces and looking forward to the next life in their hearts.
"You guys will stay here for the next few days and get familiar with it. When I come back, I will relocate again."
Chen Jichuan ordered Wu Shouyang and others.
He was not prepared to take these disciples back to Yuquan Mountain and then merge them into Yuquan Mountain.
Not to mention that there is Immortal Master Wuyuan on top of Yuquan Mountain who is always holding his head down.
Even though Immortal Master Wu Yuan has passed away, there are still many uncles and elders of Chen Jichuan in the mountains, as well as masters with extreme innate talents. It may not be difficult for Chen Jichuan to fight for the right to speak, but there will be a lot of open and covert fighting.
Chen Jichuan didn't like this.
Not only that.
After the death of Immortal Master Wu Yuan, if there is no more Qi Refining Immortal Master in Yuquan Mountain, it will be a question whether Yuquan Mountain can be defended.
There is nothing to argue about.
Chen Jichuan spent a lot of time and energy cultivating disciples in the Three Realms Gate, but he didn't want to give them up to others, nor did he want to fall into internal strife.
Simply find an island outside, rebuild the 'Echo Valley', separate it from Yuquan Mountain, and form its own line.
As the founder of the sect, he has a lofty status. He does not have many nonsense things that ruin the situation, and he lives a quiet and clean life.
As for where to place everyone, Chen Jichuan hasn't decided yet, and he doesn't have a clear goal.
There are people coming and going on Baiyu Island, and there are many shops. It is a good place for Wu Shouyang and others to quickly become familiar with Xuanyou Sea.
Stop here first.
After he goes to Yuquan Island, it will not be too late to find a place to place all his disciples.
"Yes."
Of course Wu Shouyang and others had no doubts and agreed one by one.
They are also eager to understand Xuanyouhai and are not in a hurry to really settle down.
Wait until they become familiar with it.
Maybe they would want to have a stable base to provide them with a sense of belonging and security.
There is no rush at this time.
He followed Chen Jichuan and lived in a large house with three entrances and three exits. He also hired several servants and servants to take care of the mundane affairs and guide work.
Finish these.
Chen Jichuan separated from his disciples and went straight to Yuquan Dan Pavilion.
……
More than thirty years.
Yuquan Dan Pavilion is still there, with people coming and going here and there.
Outside Dan Pavilion, there are two rows of maple trees.
Autumn is coming to an end, and the maple leaves are turning red and falling all over the ground. There was a middle-aged man with gray hair, limping and cleaning the fallen leaves.
Chen Jichuan was looking at the Dan Pavilion at first, then at the maple trees and maple leaves, and finally his eyes fell on the middle-aged man sweeping the floor.
Habitually use the ‘insight technique’ to see.
This look.
"Yes——"
Chen Jichuan's heart suddenly trembled and he hesitated.
Stunned in place.
Until the middle-aged man seemed to be tired from bending down, he straightened up and stretched out a little. When he raised his head, he saw the young man standing not far away, looking at him.
Thirty-three years.
Chen Jichuan's appearance remained unchanged, with only a strand of white hair added.
When the middle-aged man saw it, he was stunned for a moment.
Eyes facing each other.
Chen Jichuan finally came to his senses, walked forward and called out: "Senior Brother."
Thoughts suddenly poured out like a tide——
……
"Who?"
"I am 'Chen Jichuan', the new water-carrying boy adopted by Immortal Master Wu Yuan. Immortal Master asked me to report to the Medicine Garden."
"Wait a minute, I'll call Master."
……
"Please take care of me from now on, little senior brother."
"Hey, okay, okay."
……
"There are uncles and senior brothers on the mountain who have come from far, far away on land, and they also started out as 'water-carrying boys.' Junior brother, if you work harder, you will soon become a registered disciple."
"Okay, I will try my best."
……
"Junior brother, the auspicious time has come, go and become a disciple!"
……
"Junior brother came back a few days earlier than I expected."
……
"I just came back and I'm leaving. How long will we have to go this time?"
……
"One year is too long!"
……
In a trance.
Chen Jichuan seemed to see the little boy with half his head sticking out of the medicine garden when he first met him again.
It was as if he had seen his little senior brother who happily came to Baiyu Island to see him again, as if he had seen the happy little boy who had obtained the 'Xiaoyao Shuttle' again.
Time and space change.
Many years apart.
The former boys and young men became lame and became the decadent middle-aged people sweeping the floor in front of the Yuquan Dan Pavilion? !
"Little senior brother!"
“What on earth is——”
Chen Jichuan felt sentimental and a little angry.
I don’t know what kind of change caused the cheerful and optimistic young man to fall into this!
"Junior brother——"
Pei Ze looked at Chen Jichuan, not daring to recognize him at first.
It was only when Chen Jichuan called out for the second time that he came back to his senses, with a complicated look in his eyes. He twitched the corners of his mouth and forced himself to smile: "Junior brother is back."
"Yeah."
"Back."
Chen Jichuan looked at Pei Ze and opened his mouth, not knowing what to say.
At first, he lied to Pei Ze, saying that he would go back to visit relatives in a year and a half. As a result, this journey lasted more than thirty years. I thought that when he came back, with Pei Ze's talent, he would be at least in the second or third realm of Xiantian.
But who knows——
"When I went to sea in my early years, I encountered a storm and broke a leg. Fortunately, I didn't lose my life."
Pei Ze's tone was calm and somewhat distant.
Chen Jichuan heard the distance in the words and didn't care much.
After all, I haven't seen him for more than thirty years, and when he returned this time, his appearance remained unchanged, so he was clearly successful in his practice. But Pei Ze had a broken leg, and his cultivation level was only at the sixth level.
The feeling of strangeness coupled with the gap in cultivation.
Pei Ze kept a distance from him, which Chen Jichuan could understand.
"Something happened inland and it was difficult to get away. I didn't go back until today. My younger brother is injured. Why don't you follow me back to Yuquan Mountain to recuperate in peace?"
After all, he and Pei Ze had a close friendship in the past, far from superficial friends like the Qian brothers. Seeing that Pei Ze was lame and had to sweep the floor outside Yuquan Dan Pavilion, Chen Jichuan couldn't bear it and really wanted to help.
"No need."
"I'm doing quite well here. I'm used to sweeping fallen leaves."
Pei Ze shook his head.
He hit his waist with his hand and said to Chen Jichuan: "Junior brother is back. This is a happy event. But there must be no one in front of my parents at home. Please forgive me for not being able to support my brother. Junior brother, I'd better go back to the island as soon as possible to pay homage to my ancestor. Worship the Master.”
"Master, he——"
Chen Jichuan was stunned when he heard this.
He remembered that when he left Xuanyouhai, Master Yu Chengbo was ninety-one years old.
A quick calculation shows that if he lived to this year, he would be one hundred and twenty-four years old. For Xiantian monks, this age is not really old.
Unexpectedly, he passed away early.
"It's been seven or eight years."
Pei Ze replied.
Seven or eight years ago, I was only over 110 years old, which was too short a life.
But when he thought about Yu Chengbo's wretchedness, Chen Jichuan wasn't too surprised.
They didn't communicate or get along much with this master, and they were far from being close to Pei Ze.
Now that this little senior brother is so alienated from him, Chen Jichuan has no special feelings for this cheap master who passed away long ago.
"After all, we still couldn't see each other for the last time."
Chen Jichuan sighed. Seeing that Pei Ze had no intention of reminiscing with him, he didn't want to be entangled, so he said: "Then I will go back to Yuquan Island first, and then I can have a good talk with my junior brother."
"Yeah."
Pei Ze nodded.
When Chen Jichuan saw this, he sighed again in his heart, did not enter the Dan Pavilion, and turned around to leave.
After he left.
Pei Ze limped, holding a broom, and continued to clean up the fallen leaves. When he bent down and lowered his head, the corners of his mouth were slightly raised and he could not hide his smile, but for some reason, his eyes were red.
……
I met Pei Ze.
Chen Jichuan's mood was also a little low.
When he returned to Xuanyouhai, the first thing he looked forward to was the reunion with this young senior brother. It's just that this reunion came too fast and too cruelly.
"The Dantian is damaged."
"This life will stop the day after tomorrow."
Chen Jichuan sighed in his heart.
If Pei Ze was killed, Chen Jichuan could avenge him after finding out.
But he was injured and had his leg broken due to a storm at sea. Chen Jichuan could kill people, but he couldn't go all out to vent his anger for Pei Ze.
As for the injury.
Chen Jichuan could also see clearly that the injury was in the Dantian and the meridians were also damaged. It is difficult to cure just source power, and there must be a panacea to repair the Dantian.
also.
Pei Ze's heart energy is now gone. If he cannot adjust, even if his dantian and meridians are repaired, it will be difficult to put the 'spirit' into his dantian in the future.
Innate hopelessness after all.
"Please help him in the future, at least protect him from being bullied."
Chen Jichuan thought to himself.
He suppressed his low mood, hired a boat, left Baiyu Island and sailed to Yuquan Island.
……
Yuquan Island remains the same as before.
Noisy to the west, quiet to the east.
When Chen Jichuan disembarked at the eastern port, disciples wearing Yuquan Mountain uniforms immediately came up and asked, "Who are you and what are you doing in Yuquan Mountain?"
Name: Chen Yu
Age: 25
Level: 6
Kung Fu: "Grass and Tree Technique" (Sixth Level)
Spells: Little Clouds and Rain, Fire Bombs, Object Repelling
……
This is an ordinary disciple of Yuquan Mountain who only cultivates his abilities the day after tomorrow.
Responsible for many secular affairs in the mountains and islands.
For example, guarding docks and ports is one of them. When Chen Jichuan went to work as a waiter at Yuquan Dan Pavilion, it was one of them.
Therefore, when I saw this disciple named ‘Chen Yu’, I felt a little close to him.
Not worried, he smiled at him and said: "I am also a disciple of Yuquan Mountain. My surname is Chen and my name is Ji Chuan. I studied under Yu Chengbo. I once worked with Master Xu Tianfang at the Yuquan Dan Pavilion on Baiyu Island."
Worried that Chen Yu would not believe it, Chen Jichuan not only reported his name, but also specifically mentioned the names of Yu Chengbo and Xu Tianfang.
I thought this person wanted to ask a few more questions.
Unexpectedly, as soon as he finished speaking, Chen Yu stared: "That's nonsense. Uncle Yu has only one disciple, Uncle Pei Ze, how come I haven't heard of another 'Chen Jichuan'?"
Chen Yu looked wary and tightened his sword.
"I went back to the mainland to visit my relatives a few years ago, but some changes happened, and I haven't returned until now. If you don't believe it, just ask Uncle Xu Tianfang."
Chen Jichuan explained to Chen Yu.
More than thirty years have passed.
It is too normal for the disciples of Yuquan Mountain not to know his existence, but his identity is true, it is just a few more explanations.
"Go back to the inland to visit relatives in the early years?"
Chen Yu frowned, doubtful. Suddenly he seemed to think of something again. He was excited and asked hurriedly: "Did you come back more than thirty years ago?"
"Thirty-three years ago."
"What's wrong?"
Chen Jichuan looked at Chen Yu, wondering why this man was so excited.
"It turns out to be you!"
Chen Yu looked at Chen Jichuan, patted his forehead, and said as if he suddenly understood: "I met Uncle Pei Ze at Yuquan Dan Pavilion a few years ago, and I specifically asked about it with the senior brothers in the sect. I heard that Uncle Pei secretly went to sea to find a junior brother. Thinking about the storm on the way, my legs were lame, and my foundation was ruined. I was originally expected to cultivate Qi, but now I can only clean up the fallen leaves outside the Dan Pavilion, and even the marriage I had planned long ago was ruined. It turns out that the person is you."
… Thanks to the boss ‘Xiao Zhefu’ for the 20,000 reward, thank you!
