Jia Yongan was confused. After receiving the signal from his peak master, he immediately transformed into a dog-legged boy and poured tea and water for the two of them.

The movement is so skillful that I often do it every time I see it.

The young man in white naturally refused at first, and said apologetically: "Thank you Peak Master for your kindness, but this incident is not trivial, and I have to report it back to the sect as soon as possible."

Weng Gaozhuo was also sensible and did not force him to stay. Instead, he followed his words and said: "What the Venerable said is absolutely true, but I didn't consider it."

"But I heard that fellow Taoists from Penglai Pavilion are already on their way to Jianzong and will arrive in the near future. Why don't you wait any longer, Your Majesty? It's not too late to meet before leaving."

Upon hearing this, the young man in white hesitated.

Upon seeing this, Weng Gaozhuo tried to persuade him to stay while the iron was hot. The pie painting made Jia Yongan crazy. The young man nodded slightly and said politely: "Then I'm sorry for bothering you."

"Your Majesty, you are welcome."

Weng Gaozhuo suddenly laughed so hard that he couldn't even see his eyes.

In the next few conversations, he intentionally brought the topic to "Penglai Pavilion", but the young man seemed unwilling to talk more, and instead turned the topic to Jia Yongan.

He smiled gently and said: "Speaking of which, when this fellow Taoist came just now, it seemed that he had something to report to you. There is nothing to do with you, so how about taking care of the internal affairs first?"

The implication: take care of yourself.

(Weng Gaozhuo’s imagination)

No matter whether the young man said it casually or he meant something, after hearing this, Weng Gaozhuo mentally scolded Jia Yong'an, who was in trouble.

But since the other party said so, he didn't want to bother any more. He could only turn his head to look at Jia Yongan, and his voice suddenly became colder: "Tell me, what's the matter?"

Jia Yongan, who was huddled next to him as a servant:...

What did this make him say?

He originally sneaked here to avoid being seen and heard, but who would have thought that there was a giant Buddha in the courtyard, and he was also a powerful figure from other sects.

No matter how thick-skinned Jia Yongan is and no matter how hard he tries to climb up, he can't show off in front of outsiders that he is a fellow student!

And it happened to be stuck at a time when my classmate was recovering from a serious illness, his cultivation level had plummeted, and his brain might not be working very well!

People doing things?

Jia Yongan said: You can be a dog behind your back, but you still have to be a little human in front of a powerful person.

But now both of them are staring at him, as if waiting for his reply. Jia Yongan can't just stay silent and say nothing, let alone make up random things——

Otherwise, in a few days, Weng Gaozhuo would probably find a reason to throw him off Xijiang Peak.

So he had no choice but to omit the bet part of the matter, concealed some of the causes and consequences, and focused on telling the story of Xu Minyu being brought back to Qingshan Peak by Ming Dai.

"Xu Minyu, is that child with both water and fire spiritual roots in his body?" After all, he was a student sent by Xu Qingchuan himself, so Weng Gaozhuo still had some impressions.

Jia Yongan nodded: "Exactly."

When he said this, Weng Gaozhuo also remembered something from the past: "When he was sent here, I helped suppress the fire root in his body."

Water and fire have been incompatible since ancient times.

What's more, Xu Minyu not only has two spiritual roots of water and fire in his body, but the two forces are not very balanced.

Among them, seven are water and three are fire.

However, from a numerical point of view, although the water spirit root in his body is slightly stronger, it does not have an advantage against the fire spirit root.

For example, a disciple with a single spiritual root of the water system can obtain 100% water spiritual power by practicing a small Zhoutian.

What Xu Minyu obtained after practicing for a week was 70% of the water spiritual power and 30% of the fire spiritual power. After the two phases were lost, it was estimated that only 30 to 40% was left.

In other words, although his talent is good, he is a natural funnel. In more serious cases, he may even become obsessed due to the imbalance of spiritual power in his body.

People with dual spiritual roots are rare, and those with mutually incompatible spiritual roots are even rarer. When Xu Qingchuan took Minyu around to seek medical treatment, the response he received was that he could not be cured or that his spiritual roots were removed.

In the end, there was no other choice, so Xu Qingchuan had no choice but to send people to Xijiang Peak, which was good at water swordsmanship. The purpose was to suppress the fire root in Minyu's body as much as possible.

Although Tang Mingdai herself has dual spiritual roots, she is of the wind and fire elements. If she were to teach her, wouldn't all her previous efforts be wasted!

Jia Yongan sighed and said: "Xu Minyu, this child, although he is usually a bit naughty, he is still motivated and eager to learn."

"I am usually very cautious when teaching. I don't even dare to say harsh words, for fear that he will make a mistake."

"But now Elder Tang insists on taking the child back to educate him himself. He refuses to listen to me no matter how hard I try. Isn't this harming the child? When the time comes, Master Xu will ask, what should I do..."

Weng Gaozhuo said nonchalantly: "Since it was Qingshanfeng himself who came to take people back by force, just tell the truth. There is no need to explain."

Xu Minyu's physique was too unstable, to put it mildly, like a time bomb. If he hadn't happened to be looking for Xu Qingchuan back then, he really wouldn't have accepted this hot potato.

When he first took over, Weng Gaozhuo had seriously considered how old it would be for someone to stay there before sending him back. Now Tang Mingdai took the initiative to take the person back, which saved him a lot of effort.

But that Tang Mingdai...

"From what you're saying, she wants to set up a training academy on Qingshan Mountain and teach her disciples by herself? Why would she want to take people back?"

Jia Yongan was stunned, he really hadn't thought about this.

But thinking about it, there seems to be some clues to follow.

As for why we need to take people back...

"I'm not sure if I understood it wrong, but at that time she said..." Jia Yongan paused, seeming a little embarrassed to speak.

"explain?"

As expected, Weng Gaozhuo's curiosity was aroused, and even the young man in white who had been silent not far away cast his eyes.

"Said that our teaching was too poor and delayed their students." Jia Yongan carefully observed their expressions while considering Gong Huo's words.

"She also said that when the sects compete in five months, the disciples from Qingshan Peak will beat our little disciples from Xijiang Peak to a pulp."

"I tried to persuade her with good intentions, but she dismissed me, saying that there are no students who can't teach well, only teachers who can't teach. What qualifications does such a person have to be an elder?"

Before Jia Yongan finished speaking, cracks appeared in the teacup in Weng Gaozhuo's hand, and he looked like he was about to explode. But at this moment, another voice came in from the side.

"There are no students who cannot teach well, only teachers who cannot teach?" He repeated it unhurriedly, as if he was asking a question or mumbling to himself.

Weng Gaozhuo paused slightly with his palm movements, then he suddenly remembered that there was a giant Buddha next to him, so he quickly calmed down.

But he couldn't figure out the other person's thoughts for a while, so he could only ask tentatively: "What do you think, Your Majesty? But I don't think it's appropriate?"

"No." The young man in white shook his head.

"I just suddenly remembered an old friend."

He lowered his head and slowly brushed the strings with his slender fingers, as if he was looking at something or reminiscing about the past through the strings.

Soon, a string of intermittent noise flowed out from his fingers. It was incoherent and not even musical, but it was mixed with a majestic spiritual power, making people unconsciously immersed in mystery.

Jia Yongan listened to half of the song in a daze, but at a certain moment he suddenly realized that the venerable person in front of him might be a music practitioner.

Just like there are countless sword cultivators in the world, but the orthodoxy depends on the sword sect. There are many people in the world of immortal cultivators who have entered Taoism through music, but the most influential one is the Miaoyin Sect above Yunmeng Daze.

According to legend, the ancestor of the Miaoyinmen was originally an actor who was on the run. When he was hunted to Yunmeng Daze, he luckily broke through the barrier with his music and escaped into the hinterland of Yunmeng Ze.

Since then, the Miaoyin disciples have lived a solitary life in Yunmeng Daze, but even so, there are still some geniuses whose brilliance cannot be blocked by Yunmeng Daze's obstacles.

For example, the Venerable Liao Zhen, Xie Jing'an, used his harp to protect the city in the great wilderness and turned the tide.

Facing the powerful monster, he, who was still unknown at that time, stood alone on the city gate, building a barrier to the sky with only a simple Yao Qin.

The sound of the piano continued for three days, forcibly saving a mortal town that was destined to be destroyed from the brink of death.

Three days later, reinforcements arrived, and he left quietly, disappearing from people's sight as silently as he came.

Only then did the name of Venerable Lozhen spread throughout Central Continent, triggering a frenzy of music practice.

But unfortunately, because the Miaoyin disciples have always kept a low profile, there is very little information about Xie Jing'an from the outside world.

Apart from his identity as the "Elder of the Miaoyin Sect", no one knows who he studied under, and no one knows how he practiced. They only know that when he left Yunmengze and entered the human world, he had already entered the state of transformation.

.

In the age of the end of the Dharma, when cultivation is difficult, the word "transformation into a god" alone is an existence that countless people look up to.

Jia Yongan originally thought that an established venerable person like him would be ashamed of Tang Mingdai's radical and irresponsible behavior.

In his view, spiritual practice is entirely his own business, and how far he can go depends entirely on his own ability. The teacher is just a guide. If a disciple has no chance of the great path, what does it have to do with the teacher?

Jia Yong'an thought: "A teacher should preach, teach, and resolve doubts. Other than that, it should have nothing to do with the 'teacher'."

Obviously so many disciples are taking the same class and learning from the same person, so why can others learn well? But some people can't keep up?

The reason is that the disciples themselves lack understanding and are unable to understand the mysteries of the Tao.

The reincarnation of heaven is inherently determined. If others forcefully interfere with it, it will easily push people astray, and even lead to eternal disaster.

Therefore, if you want to blame them, you can only blame those disciples at Qingshan Peak for their poor natural life.

Not only Jia Yongan, but also Weng Gaozhuo and even most immortal cultivators think so.

When he heard Xie Jing'an suddenly mention "an old friend", Weng Gaozhuo thought it was someone close to him who had been tricked by such an arrogant and unscrupulous teacher.

He was about to say "My condolences" and then angrily say "Arrogant kid, it's not worth the trouble" when he heard the other party sigh softly and say in a nostalgic tone -

"Since my master passed away, I haven't heard similar words for a long time. In such a state, I feel ashamed."

"In the Sword Sect, there is indeed a Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon."
