"Fellow Taoist, walk slowly!" There is a century-old store named Yufulou on Fuguang Street in Liuxian Town. The talismans, elixirs and other items sold are of high quality and low price, and are very popular among many disciples of Huang Shengzong. Although the store is located a little off , but the business in the store is not bad. The middle-aged shopkeeper Liu Changsong, who is not wearing a green robe, is sending a regular customer out of the store.
"Hey! It's so boring!" A young woman in her mid-20s was lying on the counter next to the reception desk, pouting.
"Junior Sister Mu, if you're bored, just go shopping on the street. Senior Brother Zhang and I are watching in the store." Liu Changsong said with a chuckle when he saw this scene.
"Go!" Another middle-aged Taoist who was looking after the elixir counter in the store also said with a smile. The middle-aged Taoist's name was Zhang Fenghai. He was a disciple of Taoist Xuanhan and was ordered to run the elixir business in the store.
"I don't dare! If Master finds out, he will be nagging me." The young woman said with a grimace.
The girl's name is Su Mu, and she is the beloved younger brother of the owner of this store, Fairy Xuan Yue. The last time she was lazy and ran out to play while looking at the store, she was caught by Master Xuan Yue. Not only was she scolded a lot, but she was also fined a lot. A book of scriptures.
"Don't get caught this time, just don't do it, senior brother and junior brother Liu won't tell the truth." Zhang Fenghai said with a smile. This junior sister Su is naughty and fun, and often gets into trouble. Every time, her teacher Xuan Yue takes care of her. It was pitiful, but it also gave the two of them a lot of fun.
"Hmph! I don't know who it was last time, but I told Master that Mu'er sneaked away to watch a play in Lichun Garden. As a result, I was caught by Master after I saw only half of the play." Su Mu said with a little pout. .
"Ha, ha!" Zhang Fenghai and Liu Changsong looked at each other, shaking their heads and laughing.
"You..." Su Mu was about to say with an aggrieved face. When he saw a beautiful figure walking in front of the store, he immediately straightened his posture, closed his mouth, looked at the counter, and pretended to be serious.
"Greetings to Senior Sister!" It turned out that his master, Fairy Xuanyue, was here, and Zhang Fenghai and Liu Changsong paid their respects immediately.
"You two junior disciples don't need to be polite. Is Mu'er thinking of being lazy and playing tricks again?" Liu Yue'er glared at her troublesome little apprentice and said in a bad tone.
"No, no..." Su Mu waved her hands hurriedly, her little head shaking like a gourd.
"Junior sister, she came to the store early in the morning and was not lazy." Liu Changsong also spoke to help.
"Here! I brought this for you. If the store is not busy and you are bored, you can go shopping on the street. Don't go too far!" Liu Yue'er had seen the scene just now, but she was in a good mood today and had no time to repair this damn girl. She took out A box of pastries just bought from a street food shop was placed on the counter, and he walked to the talisman drawing room on the second floor.
Just now, Liu Yue'er went to Bai Xinglin to collect a batch of high-quality spiritual beast essence and blood sent by the Blue Eyes Gang. She also found out from the shopkeeper that the fleets of the three sects returning from the North had arrived in Zhoushan City a few days ago. I think Master will be able to return to the sect by the end of the month.
"Senior brother, here! You said that the master has a ruddy complexion and a smile on his eyebrows today. What's the good thing? He didn't scold me, huh! I can't figure it out." When the master Xuan Yue went up to the second floor, Su Mu immediately returned to his original shape and took a few mouthfuls. Then he swallowed a piece of sweet and glutinous "Cotton Snow Ginseng Cake", picked up another piece in his mouth, and then handed a piece to each of the two senior brothers, muttering vaguely.
"Brother, I heard from Master that Uncle Xuanyu will return to the sect soon. Senior sister is in such a good mood. I guess it's because of this." Liu Changsong guessed and said, his face gradually became serious. Although this Uncle Xuanyu has not yet I have seen it with my own eyes, but it does not hinder my respect for this uncle in my heart.
Uncle Xuanyu is the senior brother of his master, Taoist Master Xuanzhi, but to Liu Changsong, it is more than that. Uncle Xuanyu is the ancestor of the Jiuzheng Liu family and his great-grandfather, Liu Changsong.
With his Four Spiritual Roots, Liu Changsong was able to worship and practice in Huangsheng Mountain, and entered the disciples of Taoist Xuanzhi, thanks to the great ancestor's protection.
This is why Fairy Xuan Yue calls him Junior Brother. Based on Liu Changsong's cultivation in the Eighth Qi Palace, even if this is true according to the seniority of the sect, he is still at a high level.
Because of this relationship, he could afford to be called junior brother. In fact, Su Mu needed to call him junior uncle, but these false titles were not important.
"Master Xuanyu returned to the sect. Mu'er also heard the master mention it. What does the master look like? Have you seen it?" She knew about this matter and heard the master mention it several times, so she couldn't help but curiously asked.
"Brother, I've never seen it before!" Liu Changsong shook his head and replied, but in the ancestral hall of the ancestral temple in the backyard of his old house in Jiuzheng County, there was a painting of the great ancestor drinking tea under the tree. He was a young Taoist who was floating out of the dust.
"I haven't seen Mu'er either. I think the master must miss his master very much!" Su Mu said, holding his chin. The master fell into a state of confusion several times when he mentioned his master.
"What are you talking about!" Tang Zhi said as he walked into the store and saw that Liu Changsong and Su Mu didn't know what they were talking about and neither noticed him entering the store.
"Meet the Master!"
"Meet the Master!"
"Meet Uncle Master!"
Liu Changsong, Su Mu and Zhang Fenghai in the store paid their respects one after another.
"Master, I'm going to talk to Junior Sister Su about Uncle Xuanyu again. I heard that Uncle Xuanyu is about to return to the sect from the North." Liu Changsong immediately replied.
"Senior brother, he is indeed going back to the sect soon." Tang Zhi nodded and smiled, then asked Su Mu: "Have you completed the homework given by Yue'er recently? Have you practiced writing spells seriously?"
"Master, the disciple has completed all the instructions given by the master, and has been able to draw a few simple spells." Su Mu, who usually had a playful smile, immediately became honest when facing Tang Zhi, and felt more honest than when he was lazy and was criticized by the master. Xuan Yue was even more cautious when caught.
Because Su Mu is the daughter of Su'anbao in Green Screen Mountain, the same family that Tang Zhi's mother Su Hui belongs to. Suanbao originally entrusted the girl to Tang Zhi to join Tang Zhi's sect to practice. Later, Tang Zhi asked Liu Yuer to accept the girl as his disciple on his behalf. And have high hopes.
Firstly, Tang Zhi's sect has already accepted many disciples, and he has no time to accept more disciples. Secondly, this girl is extremely talented and has a single spiritual root of the water system. He accepted her as his sect. He was afraid of delaying this girl's talent, so he asked his nephew Xuan Yue. Take on a disciple.
Because of this, Su Mu became Liu Yue'er's second disciple. The first disciple he accepted had died in the sect's "Building Mansion Stone Chamber".
Su'anbao and Tang Zhi often corresponded. Although Su Mu was young, he could not bear to let his family members worry about him. Tang Zhi was more strict with Su Mu than his master Xuan Yue. This was why Su Mu respected Tang Zhi very much. Chi reasons.
"Where's Yue'er!" Tang Zhi nodded. Although Su Mu was naughty, she heard Yue'er say that she practiced pretty hard, so she asked immediately.
"Master is painting talismans on the second floor!" Su Mu replied hurriedly.
…
"Sister Zhi, sit down quickly!" Tang Zhi came to the talisman painting room on the second floor. Liu Yue'er immediately put down the talisman pen in her hand and stood up to greet her.
"get out of class ends so early today!" The two of them came to sit down at the coffee table, poured a cup of jasmine tea for him, and said kindly.
"Today we have a silent test on seal script. The class is over early. I have some good news for Yue'er." Tang Zhi took a sip of tea. Tang Zhi has been working as a teacher in Chuyuan Hall for these years. His position is easy and his sect's salary is not bad. The most important thing is that you don’t need to leave the mountain gate, which is beneficial to your own practice.
"Yue'er, I also have good news that I want to hear from Sister Yu Zhi." Liu Yue'er picked up Tang Zhi and shook her.
"Then you say it first!" Tang Zhi said helplessly. Yue'er's temperament has become a master, but she is still like a child who has not grown up.
"I heard from Shopkeeper Bai Xinglin that the fleet has arrived in Zhoushan City a few days ago. I don't think I can see Master in less than a month!" Liu Yuer immediately said excitedly.
"This is what Sister Zhi wants to say. I just learned this news from the mouth of a senior deacon in the inner hall. Senior brother is finally back." Tang Zhi said, her eyes turning red.
"Okay, Master is about to return to the sect. We should be happy. Sister Zhi, why are you crying?" Liu Yue'er hurriedly persuaded.
"No, it was just windy on the road and I accidentally got in the sand and dust." Tang Zhi hurriedly turned to the side and wiped away the tears.
"Okay, do you want to inform senior brother Xuan'an and senior nephew Xuanci of this news and ask them to take leave and rush back to the sect?" Liu Yuer asked as she remembered something.
"No! Guarding the Spirit Vein Mine has a heavy responsibility. How can you take leave of absence so easily? When my senior brother returns to the sect, there will be plenty of time to see each other. There is no need to rush." Tang Zhi immediately objected. Wang Ping and Tian Yi now led As ordered by the sect, he was stationed at a spiritual vein mine in Nanliang Kingdom.
Although it is a foreign mission, the job pay is not low, and the surrounding area of the mine is rich in spiritual energy, not much worse than Shanmen. You can also maintain your practice, which is a rare good job.
If you take leave easily and fall into the eyes of interested people, your performance appraisal will be affected, and you will be transferred from the sect later on, you will lose more than you gain.
You must know that this assignment was made many years ago by the Tuoba family of the royal family of the Nanliang Kingdom. In order to thank their senior brothers for avenging their descendants, Taoist Xuanshan, they specially reserved seats for Wang Ping and Zhang Tianyi. I don’t know how many people secretly Jealous.
