Chapter 105: Storm
At dusk, Master Decheng and his companions returned. They smelled the odor of a low-grade insect repellent all around their residence on the top of the mountain.
Before the person in charge of the Dharma Hall could tease Master Decheng, he saw Shi Zelan lighting the firewood on the open space.
The head of the Dharma Hall was stunned for a moment, then said to Master Decheng and Master Shanzheng: "Your disciples have a very worldly air."
After hearing what the head of the Dharma Hall said, Master Decheng smiled and said, "Ha, ha, ha, they don't forget where they came from."
Shanzheng Zhenren glanced at the head of the ritual hall and said, "I don't want to see that filthy scene either. You guys are still fussing about for half a day just for a fire."
The person in charge of the legal hall was speechless for a moment. After they arrived and searched the back, they could only set fire.
"We have to dig it down again tomorrow. I'm worried that there is something hidden underneath."
Zhenren Decheng and Zhenren Shanzheng nodded in agreement. They both felt that the people in the Dharma Hall had wasted their time today, but it was quite necessary to continue looking through the materials.
At night, Ji Lin, the head of the Dharma Hall, sat on the roof and played the flute. The sound of the flute was deep, distant, elegant and unworldly, with a sense of vicissitudes.
"Pah, pah, pah." The sounds of windows being opened were heard several times, but Master Ji Lin continued to play the flute calmly and without anxiety.
Shi Zelan sent a message to Master Shanzheng: "Master, I want to learn how to play the flute."
"Okay." Master Shanzheng answered her calmly.
Master Shanzheng climbed onto his own roof, looked at the man playing the flute on his roof, and sat down with a somewhat helpless expression to listen to him playing the flute.
The beauty of the flute sound lies in its airy, agile, and far-reaching sound that follows the wind. Master Shanzheng was immersed in the sound of the flute. After Master Jilin stopped, he asked with some regret, "One more song?"
"You disturbed me." Master Ji Lin said bluntly to Master Shan Zheng.
"Aren't you expecting me to come up and disturb you?
You don't sit on your own roof, but sit on my roof and play the flute. Do you have something to say to me? ”
"Shan Zheng, we haven't had the chance to sit together and talk for many years."
Master Shanzheng glanced at Master Jilin and said, "After I returned to the sect, I went to look for you. You were busy outside."
"After I returned to the sect, I heard that you accepted a personal disciple and took her out to travel."
Shanzheng Zhenren smiled happily from the bottom of his heart: "You have also seen her. Isn't she a very smart and open-minded person?"
"I only saw that she was timid and didn't like to cause trouble."
"Yeah, I didn't expect that Junior Brother's child wouldn't be like them. Sister Lan is much calmer and more low-key."
"How dare she not be low-key and peaceful? Her life is in the hands of others."
"Ji Lin, did you find out who harmed her?"
Master Ji Lin shook his head: "There are too many loose threads. If you pull one out, it will bring countless troubles later."
"Does it have anything to do with the feud with the Lou family?"
“I don’t know.”
"Can't you speak to me from the bottom of your heart?"
“I really don’t know.
But the most private thing I can tell you is that before the Lou family's ancestor died, he instructed his descendants not to make things difficult for Shi Zelan, saying that it was too difficult for her at such a young age. ”
After hearing this, Master Shanzheng sighed and said, "The ancestor of the Lou family has always been fair, but his fate has been unfortunate."
Master Ji Lin looked at him for a while and asked curiously, "Why did you accept your junior brother's daughter as your personal disciple?"
"Maybe it's my destiny as a teacher and student. My master also said that if I liked her, I wouldn't have to accept her as my disciple."
"Your master is right, she is Shi Beichen's daughter, and she can become Shi Beichen's direct disciple in the future.
You are doing something completely unnecessary. In the eyes of outsiders, they will only think that you accepted her as your disciple just for a false reputation. ”
After hearing this, Shanzheng Zhenren laughed and said, "Does this outsider include you?"
"I know you have always been kind and soft-hearted, and you are not someone who seeks fame for nothing.
Your master is not only a master of talismans, but also good at fortune-telling, but he is not well-known in the sect.
Did you learn fortune-telling from your master in private? ”
Master Shanzheng rolled his eyes at Master Jilin and said, "How many people in our sect can't tell fortunes?
This is the most basic knowledge. Anyone who has been to a lecture hall has learned a little bit of fortune-telling knowledge from the master. ”
"You mean Shi Zelan can also tell fortunes?"
"I don't believe you haven't checked what she does in the lecture hall. Whenever she has free time, she will attend everyone's class."
"That's right. She is clearly a little bastard, but in the classroom she has become a free and cool person.
I heard Youdaojun sigh that she has quite a bit of the demeanor of her ancestor. ”
"She is still like her father, a person of temperament."
"Yes, her father was very happy. He happily married the beloved daughter of the Lou family, and then your Fengmen and the Lou family formed an irreconcilable feud."
"Pfft. In the past, Junior Brother was obviously affectionate and loyal to Junior Brother's wife. If he married her, our peak sect would be well-known in the sect.
If he doesn't dare to marry his sweetheart because of the pressure from the Lou family, our peak sect's reputation in the sect will be greatly damaged. ”
Brother Shanzheng has always believed that Master Beichen did nothing wrong in this matter. He just took on the responsibility that a man should take.
If the people of the Lou family wanted to use their daughter's marriage to arrange an alliance, they should have spread the word early on instead of letting their daughter follow her own will and make friends with outstanding people in the sect.
Master Ji Lin looked at Master Shan Zheng for a while and said, "You are going to teach her how to practice now. What about your practice?"
Shanzheng Zhenren looked at him and said, "Didn't you feel that I have made some progress recently when you saw me this time?"
Master Ji Lin nodded: "It's good that you know it in your mind."
"I know what's going on. But Ji Lin, you've been busy with the sect's affairs. You should pay more attention to your own cultivation."
Master Ji Lin sighed, "I have been in a bottleneck period in the past few years. I'll go out for a walk, maybe I can get some good insights."
"So do you have a particularly bad feeling about the Juesha Forest this time?"
Master Jilin listened to Master Shanzheng's words and chuckled: "You also have a bad feeling, otherwise you wouldn't have left behind a purification talisman with merit points to purify the land, right?"
"There have been so many years of peace, but there have always been things that are not peaceful.
The people from Shenyi Sect said they came here to travel, but from the looks on their faces, I was afraid they were here to look for a great opportunity.
What opportunities do we have that are worth them rushing over here to fish in troubled waters without fear of offending our Yun Yan Sect? ”
"In recent years, several elite disciples of our sect have disappeared."
There was no sign of surprise on Master Shanzheng's face. However, since the sect asked them to report their safety within three months, he had some bad suspicions in his mind.
Shanzheng Zhenren sighed and said, "The storm is about to come. I hope that Lan Jie will grow up quickly so that she can protect herself when the storm comes."
