Chapter 6 Chapter 6 I have never heard of anyone using a broom as a magical instrument...
"Don't try to tease me again. We Luo Luo birds also have backbone." Luo Luo tilted his neck and simply kept silent.
"Why are you pretending to be dead? Hurry up and lead the way for me. But I don't want to see your parents. Take me to find some other good things." Bai Lu pointed the witch blade at its neck twice and felt that this bird was not very smart.
Why don't you want to see my bird?
Luo Luo Bird felt something was wrong, but didn't dare to ask.
Although the dagger seemed to have no spiritual power at all and was not even sharpened, Luo Luo Bird had seen how fast it could cast spells instantly. After gritting his teeth for a long time, he said softly, "Okay, okay, come this way."
It seems that he has some backbone, but not much. With Luo Luo as the guide, Bai Lu's exploration progressed faster, and the collection progress was quite gratifying. Not only did he find plants, but he also found some ores and spiritual stones that Luo Luo kept for himself. The harvest was full.
Before leaving, Bai Lu used the witch blade to scratch Luo Luo's body a few times.
Luo Luo asked tremblingly: "What does this mean, to silence someone?"
Although it felt nothing when the small dagger scratched it, the previous spell cast by Mo Zun had made no sound, so it did not dare to underestimate it. It rolled its eyes around, wishing it could just run away.
"How could you think of me like that?" Bai Lu snorted. They, the wizards, also respected nature. "I'm going to release you now."
Luo Luo: “…”
The word "release" suddenly sounds so harsh.
"But before releasing you, I have to mark you. I don't know how many birds like you there are, and whether they all look the same. This way, if I catch you next time, I will know which one you are." Bai Lu said. This is equivalent to a wizard version of the mark-and-recapture method.
Luo Luo almost fainted, "There will be a next time?! Can I be so unlucky?"
Bai Lu was not happy to hear it say that. "Of course I can, but it's not because I'm unlucky, it's because I can still find you actively by following this mark."
If he didn't record it, what if he needed to collect the materials again in the future? He recorded the locations of not only the Luoluo bird, but also the plants.
Luo Luo: “You…”
No, Luo Luo can't speak anymore. He feels a tightness in his chest and might want to vomit blood.
After Bailu finished marking, she left.
Luo Luo was left there searching himself for a long time but couldn't find out where the mark was placed on him, let alone break it.
If it weren't for the chill in his tail and heart, Luo Luo would almost think that everything was just a dream. It was so scary!
.
Bai Lu was still reluctant to leave until Manager Dai said that the introductory training was over.
It would be great if I could stay here, with food and accommodation provided, and it would be convenient to go in and out of the valley. There are so many good things in the mountains.
For Bai Lu, making choices is not an issue at all, he wants them all! He can make staffs, brooms, and other magic props, decorating them on wizard blades, notebooks, belts... There are so many uses for them.
But we still have to wait for the main materials, in case there are better ones later.
And Dai, the head of the group, couldn't help but tell everyone about the hidden test of Kaiyang Peak before they left. Seeing everyone's sudden realization, he said, "Alas, I have never seen people like you. Even if there are other places to go, won't you fast lightly in the future? Especially Bailu, you are the one who started it."
Bai Lu said in embarrassment: "Brother Dai, how can you have the energy to fast if you don't eat enough?"
Director Dai: “…”
It took me a while to realize what a mess this was!
But now that things have come to this, we can only say that Kaiyang Peak really has no destiny among this batch of disciples.
The students also discussed where they would like to go. Basically everyone had decided on a Dharma lineage, but they were just worried about which immortal they would become disciples of.
The most troubled one is Liang Mangu, he hasn't made his choice yet. Recently, people from various peaks have been contacting him, and he has already applied for a delayed selection.
Meng Caiqing had already made a reservation at Cang Yuntai, so he had nothing to worry about, so he stole a glance at Bai Lu who was in a daze.
It was not only because Senior Brother Bai was good-looking that they all liked to secretly look at him, but also because when Senior Brother Bai first came to Xuanshan Xianzong, he had almost nothing. But after staying in the sect for a while, Senior Brother Bai became richer and richer.
There was a delicate crystal agate pendant on his waist, and a belt hook inlaid with a cloud gem. Senior Brother Bai said that these were given to him by other candidates, and he then embedded them into the belt hook himself.
Everyone was wearing the same headband handed out by the headmaster, but Senior Brother Bai's headband had some new patterns on it. It was said to be a blessing pattern from his hometown, and it was rumored to have the effect of increasing luck.
Junior Sister Ding Douhua also wore several kinds of velvet flowers on her head in rotation, and Senior Brother Bai was very interested in this kind of handicraft. Today, Senior Brother Bai did not wear a set of pendants, but there was a velvet flower decoration on his chest, but it was very novel, the main body was a furry blue spider, and the eyes were made of some fine spiritual stones. He said it was a brooch.
Although mortals also believe that the appearance of spiders means auspicious events and that spiders represent good luck, and they will make some spider ornaments, they have never seen a blue spider like the one Bai Lu wore. I wonder if it was imagined by him. The way of wearing it is also novel, but it looks very beautiful.
Originally, because of the entry trial, Meng Caiqing still had some trauma against spiders, but now his mind has changed.
This made Meng Caiqing unable to help but wonder, does his senior brother embroider patterns and make accessories by himself after class every day?
No wonder Liang Mangu said that he had also seen Senior Brother Bai suffering from insomnia at night.
Bai Lu, who actually completed everything with magic, was thinking about her gains over the past few days: the main material for the broom had not yet been decided, and whether the new staff should use material numbered 23b...
"Senior Brother Bai, Senior Brother Bai, are you still thinking about where to go?" Meng Caiqing called Bai Lu.
I want to always be the new guy here...
No, Bai Lu remembered her silk book. She was so absorbed in collecting information that she almost forgot the clues to get home. "Of course I firmly choose my master. I will go to Xiaomei Peak!"
Meng Caiqing: "It's Meifeng, right?"
Bai Lu nodded in annoyance: "Nod, nod!"
Meng Caiqing: “…”
Next, the classmates left with the disciples from each peak who came to pick them up. Bai Lu said goodbye to everyone one by one, especially to Junior Sister Ding Douhua, asking her to take good care of her cooking skills.
Because of their constant gatherings for meals, this group of disciples who entered the sect at the same time had a very good relationship and they all agreed to get together again in the future.
When Ning Yanhu appeared again, there were only a few people left.
Ning Yanhu saw Bai Lu's furry blue spider brooch and reached out to touch it, thinking it was so cute, but Bai Lu dodged it.
Bai Lu smiled shyly. He had set up some self-defense magic inside...
It is said that spiders represent good luck in both the East and the West.
"I'm not stealing yours." Ning Yanhu said. She came here to confirm Bai Lu's thoughts. "Have you thought about becoming my disciple?"
Bai Lu immediately said, "I'll go order the plum blossoms!"
It was beyond reason and expected. Bai Lu was still determined to go to Dianmei Peak, but she didn't know why she said so hard... Ning Yanhu said, "In that case, I will take you to Dianmei Peak. In fact, Uncle Huo has already agreed to take you as his disciple, but I just want you to think about it again."
"Then Master and I are really..." Bai Lu got stuck in the middle of his sentence, and was a little unsure about how to word the second half of the sentence. He remembered that "a match made in heaven" was used to describe lovers.
Ning Yanhu looked at him, still waiting for him to say something else, "Hmm?"
Staring at each other.
Bai Lu said weakly: "...What do you think, Senior Sister?"
Ning Yanhu: "..."
"Why are you asking for praise?" Ning Yanhu said in confusion, "It's a perfect match, okay?"
"Thank you, Senior Sister."
Bai Lu: I learned something.
Ning Yanhu led Bai Lu and Jia Yun to Dianmei Peak. If it weren't for Bai Lu, she would have no chance to climb Dianmei Peak.
The sect leader will preside over the apprenticeship ceremony for Huo Xuexiang and Bai Lu here, and then Bai Lu will stay in Dianmei Peak.
Ordinary disciples, no matter how brave they are, will feel unnatural when flying for the first time. What's more, this cloud technique is different from some large flying magic tools. It has no obstructions and the wind blows from all directions.
But unexpectedly, Bai Lu didn't feel uncomfortable at all, and even looked down with great interest.
The two landed outside the plum forest of Dianmei Peak, which was named Jianmei because of Huo Xue. However, the plum trees have not bloomed in recent years. There are rumors that it is because Juntian Sword Master vowed not to ascend to heaven, so this strange phenomenon has occurred.
Although these sword plums do not bloom and are no longer in their prime, the trees are just as rumored, with their growth retaining a majestic sword spirit.
Although he has no experience in swordplay, he seems to have some insights.
Ning Yanhu glanced at Bai Lu and found that Bai Lu was also staring at and comprehending the sword intent. Combined with his composure in the air just now, well, he is worthy of being a sword cultivator.
…
Bai Lu has been observing this place since it landed, thinking about how to cut, what to dig, and what to pick.
My senior sister was still reminding me, "I think Master Dai has already led you in the ceremony. This is the first time that Master Uncle has accepted a disciple, and many elders have come to watch the ceremony... Even the Supreme Elder who is in the Three Unskilled Realms has sent a gift."
"Didn't you say before that my master is very good at fighting?" Bai Lu asked curiously, "Can he beat the elders? How many can he beat?"
This question made Ning Yanhu sweat profusely.
…The main reason was that when she looked up, she saw many elders and peak masters standing in front of her who were watching the sword. She didn’t know if they had heard Bai Lu’s outrageous remarks, so she coughed hurriedly and said, “Follow me to meet all the teachers.”
There were a bunch of people in front of her, and Bai Lu couldn't tell who was who. Most of them were addressed as elders, and she followed her senior sister and called out randomly.
"What a good young man! Huo Xuexiang is really good at selecting disciples."
"Haha, don't you know that this disciple chose the Sword Master?"
Unlike Huo Xuexiang who was all plain, his disciple was covered in a dazzling array of things, but even that couldn't hide his green eyes——
In the light and shadow cast by the branches, her green pupils are between turquoise and peacock green, and her thick eyelashes curl up at the ends, making her look charming and endearing.
It really makes people want to pat his head...but considering that he is Huo Xuexiang's disciple, they decided not to cause trouble.
Suddenly, a young man in the crowd said to Ning Yanhu in a cold voice: "Senior Sister Ning, Tianji Peak applied to build a few more warehouses, why hasn't it been approved yet?"
He was wearing a jade crown and gorgeous clothes, and looked down on the common people. It was hard to talk to him at first glance. And unlike the others, he didn't tease Bai Lu, but just glanced at her, showing no interest in people whose cultivation was so low that it was almost incalculable.
"…I'm busy at the moment, Pei Zhaoting, can't you ask your family to stop sending you the treasures first?" I'm so annoyed knowing that your family is rich.
Pei Zhaoting urged, "Please approve it quickly, and I will fix it myself."
This seemed to be the beginning of something, and others also started to speak: "Forget about Zhao Ting's warehouse. I just asked the neighboring peak to lend me people to feed my spirit beasts, and I will fight back."
"I applied to fight back. Why should I help you feed the pigs?"
"Because I'm unreasonable."
“…”
Bai Lu, who saw this scene for the first time, said: What a special team of teachers.
Amid the chatter, someone asked a slightly more serious question: "Recently, there seem to be unidentified cultivators bullying birds and grass in the mountains. Have you gone to investigate?"
"I went there. The demon cultivator who complained said that his origins were unknown, but I saw no signs that the mountain protection formation had been tampered with. We need to investigate further." Ning Yanhu said.
Not only was there no trace of the mountain protection formation, there was no so-called marking either. Was the demon cultivator hysterical? Or was it some bored inner sect disciple who was researching a new technique? It would be best if she didn't catch him.
Thanks to Bai Lu's preparation, the two were able to escape from the encirclement.
Bai Lu seemed to be meeting relatives during the Spring Festival. After going around, she didn't remember much. She turned around and looked at her senior sister, who was still frightened. "Senior sister, didn't you say that Cang Yuntai is the most leisurely place?"
"…You can't have a rest sometimes. Bailu, you heard it just now, there are bandits in the mountains recently. You are a newcomer, so don't run around everywhere, or you will be bullied." Ning Yanhu abruptly changed the subject and threatened.
Bai Lu nodded and said obediently: "Yes, I will wait for the security to be strengthened."
…
At this moment, the sect master, Immortal Boluan, was already in Shuchun Garden on the top of Dianmei Peak.
Huo Xuexiang had never accepted any disciples, so Dianmei Peak was quite deserted. There were many people from the sect who wanted to join in the fun and watch the ceremony, but at this moment there was no one in Shuchun Garden.
It was because those people took this rare opportunity to gather in the plum forest to appreciate the remaining sword spirit and recall the beauty of the sword plum in its past, which made the owner's place deserted.
The puppet standing by prepared Xuanshan's specialty dragon algae tea for the two of them. This tea has the effect of increasing strength and concentrating the mind.
Immortal Boluan took a sip of tea and said leisurely: "Junior brother, I got a new divination tool recently, and I told you about your fortune." Although he was a practitioner of magic, he felt that he had some experience in divination.
Huo Xuexiang paused and said, "The Sect Master is asking about the Immortal Fate again?"
"No, I know it's useless to tell fortunes." Immortal Lord Boluan had given up worrying about this matter, but a hint of smile flashed in his eyes, "Do you know... I can tell your Red Luan star is moving?"
Huo Xuexiang tilted his head, "?"
Boluan Immortal Lord said mysteriously: "According to my analysis, this person should be an outsider. Although I don't know whether he is from another sect or from another continent, the important sign is that he is accompanied by the star Ji. I seem to see him holding a broom, which is quite related. I don't know if it is his magic weapon. You can figure it out for yourself."
Regardless of which method is used, each diviner has his or her own way of thinking and interpretation, and the interpretation angles may be different. Different diviners may interpret the results completely differently, but they may all be correct. Sometimes you cannot see it at the moment, but you will suddenly realize it after the corresponding events.
Huo Xuexiang nodded, and just when Immortal Boluan thought he had heard it, he opened his mouth and said, "The sect master has never been good at divination."
Immortal Lord Bo Luan: "..."
Immortal Boluan said unhappily: "No way, when I predicted that I would have a beloved disciple, I got the tiger child."
Huo Xuexiang remained silent.
Although he didn't say anything, his silence had a ruthless and revealing meaning...
Because that year Immortal Lord Bo Luan predicted that he would raise a tiger demon, and that year he declared that he would recruit demon cultivators, Ning Yanhu almost failed to become his disciple.
Immortal Lord Boluan forced a smile and said, "Anyway, everything is in my plan. It's just a test. You too, wait and see if your divination works. By then, you will have both a disciple and a Taoist companion, which can be said to be a double blessing."
It's really nonsense.
Huo Xuexiang put down the teacup and said, "I have never heard of anyone using a broom as a magical instrument. I can't possibly get close to something that sweeps dust."
