Seeing Chen Shannushan's exaggerated expression, Li Xiuyuan shook his head gently, picked up the cup and took a sip of tea.
Gui Guzi asked from the side: "Have you met the young master from Ding'an City when you came back this time?"
Unexpectedly, Li Xiuyuan looked at the two of them, shook his head, and said softly: "I have cut ties with them since I left last time, why do I still have to get entangled with them?"
Ever since Ximen Lone Star came to the wine shop to invite him back to the city lord's palace, he had cut off his relationship with the couple. Coupled with Ximen Tingxue's later actions as the city lord, he completely drew a clear line with this family.
Even if he goes back this time, he will not see Ximen Lone Star again.
The Shura battlefield was waiting for him, and he had no intention of carrying two more heavy burdens.
His three burdens are enough for him to carry.
"It turns out that you actually ended your relationship with them." Chen Shanshan thought for a moment and asked, "Where are you going when you go back this time? Do you have a place to stay?"
Li Xiuyuan did not answer her question, but frowned and asked: "What's going on with your state? That guy Zhao Ping'an? He's not even inferior to you, is he?"
Chen Shanshan was stunned. She didn't expect that Li Xiuyuan would ask about her cultivation, and couldn't help but be stunned for a moment.
Then he looked at Li Xiuyuan and asked: "He is only at the fifth level, I am at the sixth level...Why can't I see your realm clearly? Could it be...can you still enter the Shura battlefield?"
She knew the state of Li Xiuyuan back then. If this guy could cultivate faster than her, it would be close to a miracle.
"Of course I can enter." Li Xiuyuan looked at her and replied calmly.
After a while, he seemed to remember something, and said to Chen Shanshan: "Come here alone tomorrow at noon, and I will help you break through another level. Remember, you can only come alone, otherwise I will leave immediately. "
When Chen Shanshan heard this, she couldn't help but cover her mouth again.
Li Xiuyuan's realm had already shocked her. She didn't expect that this guy could help her break through another realm. You must know that before the Shura battlefield opens, every breakthrough to a realm has great benefits.
"It seems like you are really amazing. You can actually help me get out of this situation with just a wave of your hand. Why don't you think of something for my husband?"
Chen Shanshan looked at him and said in a daze.
Li Xiuyuan didn't expect that she would make such a request, and he couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, thinking that this married woman really had different thoughts than usual.
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but said coldly: "First, I don't lack spiritual stones; second, I can't buy my spiritual medicine with spiritual stones. You have to be content and don't be too greedy."
In his opinion, he could give it to Zhao Ping'an, but he couldn't say it out of Chen Shanshan's mouth.
I can give it to you for free, but you can’t ask me for it. Because we don’t know each other very well, okay?
Chen Shanshan was stunned for a moment. She put her hand on her chin and kept mumbling to herself. After reading for a long time, she suddenly felt that something was wrong. It took her a long time to figure it out.
It turns out that she hasn't repaid Li Xiuyuan's life-saving kindness back then, and now she has even increased her demands. Thinking of this, I couldn't help but lower my head, and my face instantly turned red.
Guiguzi naturally knew that it was not easy for his disciple to get the elixir. He had countless friends around him who needed his help. It was not easy to help Chen Shanshan break through the situation.
You must know that after reaching the Breaking Void Realm, every next level is a very difficult thing for the monks.
"Uh... I'm hungry, Xiuyuan, why don't you go cook? Do you want to starve to death?"
Listening to these words, Li Xiuyuan looked at him and laughed. In his heart, his teacher still understood him, so he stood up in a panic, looked at him and said, "Teacher, don't be anxious, disciple, I'll go right away."
Before he finished speaking, he had already left the living room.
Seeing Li Xiuyuan leave, Chen Shanshan asked angrily: "Teacher, am I going too far? After all, I haven't repaid him for his life-saving grace."
Chen Shanshan had a look of shame on her face and reached out to give Gui Guzi some tea.
Gui Guzi thought about something Li Xiuyuan told him, and after hesitating for a moment, he asked: "You shouldn't ask him for this request. If you don't say it, he will definitely give it to you. What will he think when you say it?"
Chen Shanshan was stunned for a while, and then she said shyly after a while: "Am I worried for Zhao Ping'an? I can't even understand Li Xiuyuan's state, not to mention that he is worse than me."
Gui Guzi took a sip of tea from the cup and said seriously: "You can't compare with him in everything. He was the only one who could rescue you back then, and he wouldn't want anything in return from you, otherwise you wouldn't be able to see this side of him. "
"Is he already so powerful?" Chen Shanshan asked angrily.
"What would you do if I told you that Li Xiuyuan back then was more powerful than me? Does it mean that I have been practicing hard all my life and am not as good as a young man?"
Guiguzi looked at her quietly and replied softly.
"Oh my God, it's unbelievable." Chen Shanshan patted her chest and asked seriously: "Doesn't that mean that Li Xiuyuan is now a Talisman Master, but there are no Talisman Masters in the wilderness or the Great Wall?"
Since Gui Guzi broke through and became a Talisman Master, he has never made it public on the Great Wall, nor has he dared to ask him this question. So until now, the four major legions still believe that there are no Talisman Masters in the Great Wall.
Guiguzi glared at him and said: "Is there anything surprising about this kind of thing? We practice hard, who is not looking forward to breaking through?"
"It's just that he looks so young now, he looks like he hasn't grown up yet."
Chen Shanshan looked up and looked out of the living room and said, "He looks like he is only fifteen years old. Who would believe a fifteen-year-old Talisman Master?"
Guiguzi shook his head and handed her a brocade bag.
He said calmly: "There is no fixed time to enter the Tao. Your father must have taught you this Tao a long time ago. Why are you unwilling to believe it in reality?"
"Here are some talismans written by my master for you." Guiguzi looked at the sky outside the living room and explained softly: "I hope these talismans can help you turn danger into good luck on the Shura battlefield."
Chen Shanshan thought she heard wrongly, looked at Guiguzi and asked blankly: "Teacher, what did you say? You admitted that I am you and your disciple... Am I not dreaming?"
After practicing Talismanism with Guiguzi for decades, Guiguzi accepted his death and only recognized Li Xiuyuan as his disciple, although he had been teaching Chen Shanshan the knowledge of Talismanism.
Gui Guzi looked at her and sighed helplessly and shook his head, and said: "After dinner, you can perform the apprenticeship ceremony in front of Li Xiuyuan. From now on, all the Talisman collections and masters will be passed on to you. From now on, you will be here." 's home."
Seeing Chen Shanshan's excitement, Gui Guzi smiled slightly and said, "I hope Li Xiuyuan can help your husband for my sake. I can only help you so much."
"As for the cultivation of runes, at your current level, you can only work hard to understand the power of heaven and earth... Neither Li Xiuyuan nor my teacher can help you much."
He even wanted to tell Chen Shanshan in front of him that back then he just threw a bunch of books to Li Xiuyuan and relied on his own understanding to forge the unique talisman arrows of the Great Wall and the Wilderness.
If he could break through the void and ascend, even this talisman arrow would become a dead ringer on the Great Wall.
As for the talisman arrows, he couldn't teach Chen Shanshan because he didn't even know how to cast them. It was thanks to Li Xiuyuan that he shared the secrets with him while casting arrows.
He could accept what Li Xiuyuan said back then, but he couldn't pass these principles on to Chen Shanshan in front of him. This was his sadness.
And since Li Xiuyuan didn't want to stay at the Great Wall, he naturally didn't have time to teach her these principles.
The only thing he could do was to pass the collection of books in this room to Chen Shanshan, hoping that in the long years to come, she would be able to understand her own Talisman Dao and become a Talisman Master.
"Teacher, what do you mean?" Happiness came so suddenly, Chen Shanshan said excitedly: "Oh my god, teacher, do you think all the books in this room belong to me?"
"I was too stubborn before I became a master." Gui Guzi looked at her and said with a smile: "Actually, all my skills have been passed on to you over the years, and there is only one title difference between us master and apprentice.
Chen Shan smiled gratefully and didn't know what to say for a while.
Years of willingness came so suddenly, and she felt a little unreal. She took a sip of tea from the cup in front of her, took a deep breath, and shed tears with excitement.
Only Guiguzi couldn't laugh or cry. He had known this for a long time, so why bothered to persist so hard in the first place.
Only when I saw the hope of ascending could I let go of my attachments. Thinking of this, I couldn't help but sigh. My own realm was actually not as good as that of Li Xiuyuan back then.
Back then, Li Xiuyuan didn't even think twice, so he told him the secret of the Talisman Arrow and let him see the door of the Talisman Master.
Thinking of this, Guiguzi couldn't help but burst into tears.
...
Carrying the food into the living room, Li Xiuyuan was stunned when he found that both the master and the apprentice were crying.
"What's going on? Isn't it just a matter of one person breaking through the situation? Is it necessary to react badly?"
After putting down the food, Li Xiuyuan frowned as he looked at the two of them. In his memory, the teacher was not such a sentimental person. He must know that the teacher did not shed tears when he carved the first talisman arrow with his own hands.
Guiguzi was startled, thinking that he had been misunderstood by his disciples.
I couldn't help but take out a handkerchief and gently wiped the tears from the corners of my eyes.
He looked at Li Xiuyuan and said with a smile: "From now on, Shanshan will be your legitimate junior sister. After finishing this meal, let her perform the apprenticeship ceremony."
When Li Xiuyuan heard this, he couldn't help but look at Chen Shanshan, then at Guiguzi, and then he laughed.
"You two took advantage of my cooking time to settle the matter? This sister Shanshan is older than me, isn't it awkward now?"
Li Xiuyuan didn't have any objections to Chen Shanshan being able to take Gui Guzi as his teacher. This should have been the case a long time ago.
Just thinking about it in the blink of an eye, Teacher Xu Shi saw the opportunity that broke the situation, and couldn't bear to lose the book collection in this room, so he took Chen Shanshan into his sect.
Thinking of this, I couldn't help but take a jar of wine and put it on the table, slap it away with a smile, and fill up the glass.
Looking at the two of them, he smiled and said: "What kind of etiquette is there? Before the meal, Sister Shanshan kowtows to the teacher and toasts with a glass of wine. It is considered a ceremony. I am a witness."
When Guiguzi heard this, he looked at Chen Shanshan and said with a smile: "Then listen to your senior brother, we master and disciple should keep everything simple."
Chen Shanshan was happy to do this, and she did not mind the dust on the ground. She knelt down on the spot and kowtowed three times to Gui Guzi. She respectfully picked up the wine glass on the table and said, "Disciple Chen Shanshan, please say hello to the teacher."
Gui Guzi took the wine glass and drank it down, stretched out his hand to help Chen Shanshan up, looked at Li Xiuyuan and said with a smile: "In this way, you will all be legitimate senior brothers and sisters in heaven and earth from now on."
When Chen Shanshan heard this, she blushed and shouted to Li Xiuyuan: "Shanshan has met senior brother."
Li Xiuyuan looked at the two of them and shook his head, smiling: "Teacher, are you really going to cause trouble for me?"
Gui Guzi glared at him and said, "Aren't you lonely practicing alone?"
Chen Shanshan was stunned, looked at him and asked, "Senior brother, do you think Shanshan is stupid?"
