Chapter 15, etc.
The outer disciples of the Yunyan Sect lived in countless small courtyards, with each courtyard housing as many as fifteen or sixteen people, or as few as five or six people.
There is naturally no shortage of outer disciples in large sects, so many people come in and out of the sect, but there has never been an empty courtyard where the outer disciples live.
Shi Xiaoliu and his group were lucky. They lived in a courtyard for eight people. The other two outer disciples had come to the sect ten years earlier than them and were now devoted to their cultivation.
The eight of them lived in peace with each other, and sometimes, the two older outer disciples would give Shi Xiaoliu and the others some advice.
After Shi Zelan saw where Shi Xiaoliu and his family lived, she felt much more at ease.
Wan Tian sent Shi Zelan to Fangcao Hall. The manager of Zizai Peak came forward and thanked Wan Tian warmly.
Shi Zelan now felt that he had acted impulsively, so he was very embarrassed and apologized to the steward. He said that he would send a letter to Master Feng Yuan and Master Ping Yang to explain the situation.
When Shi Bachun saw Shi Zelan coming back, she whispered to the steward, "I will take good care of her in the future, and this incident will never happen again."
The steward understood too well Master Feng Yuan's attitude towards Shi Zelan: "No, Master, you still want her to live a happy life."
Shi Bachun felt much more at ease. Shi Zelan was at an age when she wanted to play, and she didn't want to completely trap Shi Zelan in the courtyard of Fangcaotang.
Shi Zelan didn't take this incident to heart. She went to the lecture hall as usual. When she occasionally met Xia Yu, they would chat for a word or two.
Some people in the sect now have a new opinion of Shi Zelan. They think that although her spiritual roots are good, they are useless. Moreover, she is arrogant and cannot stand being wronged. She probably will not achieve anything in the future.
When Shi Bachun heard some of the gossip outside, he cried several times behind Shi Zelan's back.
Shi Zelan was in a very calm mood. She was wholeheartedly learning various skills from the teachers in the lecture hall. As for friends, she had made them but did not have time to maintain their friendship for the time being.
Shi Zelan thought that the relationship between her and Xia Yu was nothing special, just slightly better than that of strangers.
But when such a scene fell into the eyes of the precocious, beautiful and proud young women, they thought that Shi Zelan was particularly good at pretending to be gentle and would show weakness in front of Xia Yu.
These days, the sect is busy with affairs, and Master Feng Yuan and his disciples are rarely at Zizai Peak.
They heard what the steward said about Shi Zelan's situation, so Master Pingyang went to Fangcaotang to meet Shi Zelan.
Shi Zelan was training in swordplay and was very happy to see Master Pingyang.
Taoist Master Pingyang corrected two of Shi Zelan's movements. After she waved a few times, she looked at Master Pingyang with joy on her face.
"It's smooth. Uncle Master, I corrected the movements according to your instructions, and now I feel much more comfortable."
Master Pingyang reached out and touched Shi Zelan's head: "You like kendo."
"Yes. Uncle Master, I like the feeling of moving forward."
"Well, then you should study hard."
Pingyang Zhenren turned around and said to Fengyuan Zhenjun with a smile: "Master, she is so focused on practicing swordsmanship that she can't tolerate any disputes."
Feng Yuan Zhenjun was quite emotional: "She is like your junior brother, who is very calm when faced with difficulties.
When your junior brother was in the lecture hall, he was also looked down upon for quite a while. ”
When Master Pingyang heard what Master Fengyuan said, he just smiled. Shi Beichen's situation back then was much better than Shi Zelan's current situation.
Pingyang Zhenren and Fengyuan Zhenjun discussed: "Master, there is news from the Northern Wilderness that someone saw Junior Brother and his friends a few days ago."
"Don't believe it. The headmaster has arranged for someone to find out clearly that someone misrepresented the news."
Master Pingyang said with some disappointment: "Master, given Junior Brother's personality, he will not return to the sect without passing on any news."
Master Feng Yuan and the sect leader guessed that Shi Beichen and his wife might have entered the space gate by mistake, which is why they lost contact with the sect.
“Pingyang, there has been unrest in several sects these days, and I’m afraid our sect will have to arrange people to mediate.
You just focus on your cultivation, I will look after Sister Lan. ”
Master Pingyang understood what Master Fengyuan meant: "Master, I don't want to get involved in mediating the affairs of other sects."
Feng Yuan Zhenjun's eyes were deep: "If the master arranges you to go, you should go, and there is no need to say anything more after you go.
If you meet someone with good character, you can make a few more friends and take a look at the situation of the elite disciples of other sects. ”
The head of the sect and Master Feng Yuan mentioned that the last beast tide had happened several decades ago, and he estimated that the next beast tide would be at most fifty years away.
Today, the Yunyan Sect seems to be prosperous, but there are not many outstanding young disciples in the sect, and the sect still needs to recruit more children with spiritual roots.
The head of the sect has always been far-sighted, and Master Feng Yuan respects his ideas very much.
When the autumn wind started to blow, Shi Bachun's sword skills began to show results. She cried with joy: "Lan Jie'er, I finally know the way of a swordsman."
After Shi Zelan congratulated her, she had to face the reality that they would separate.
Taoist Priest Pingyang privately told Shi Zelan that for the sake of Shi Bachun's future, she should leave Shi Zelan and concentrate on her cultivation.
"Uncle Master, if Eighth Aunt fails to reach the foundation-building stage within two hundred years, will she return to the world?"
Master Pingyang looked at Shi Zelan and sighed, "Lan'er, we cultivators can only have a longevity equal to heaven and earth when we reach the celestial immortal stage."
"Uncle Master, is my ancestor a celestial being?"
"The sect has records that he ascended to heaven."
Shi Zelan said with envy: "One day when my master and uncle both ascend to heaven, I will definitely follow them."
Master Pingyang looked at Shi Zelan and smiled: "Okay."
He turned around and told Master Feng Yuan what Shi Zelan had said. Master Feng Yuan smiled and said, "She is still a child. As expected, her childish words are extremely innocent."
True Lord Feng Yuan was very happy in his heart. People who practice Taoism often believe in cause and effect and chance.
"I haven't seen Lan'er for some time. Do you think she has made any progress in her cultivation recently?"
Master Pingyang shook his head: "She told me that many times, she couldn't feel the spiritual energy entering her body."
"Humph, if I find that vicious person, I will definitely not let him off."
"Master, has the Sect Master really not found any clues about Sister Lan's affairs?"
“In the month when Sister Lan was born, there were many things going on in the sect, and many people came to the sect.
The headmaster said that they must conduct a thorough investigation and not wrongly accuse anyone. ”
“Master, I have asked many people, and I always feel that it has something to do with the Lou family.
My junior brother's personality is such that he won't bear deep hatred with anyone. ”
“The headmaster and I have said that the Lou family would not dare to do such a thing. After all, Sister Lan is related to them by blood.
We guess that it might be related to love and hatred.
But the man was buried very deep, so we can only wait for the opportunity. ”
