Yashan, when Tianjisou came to this mountain, it was almost a virgin forest, and the road was rugged and difficult to walk. Thanks to a man of great perseverance like Tianjisou, he was able to establish a sect here. The highest peak of Yashan, Cangcuiling, is more than 1,500 meters above sea level and is considered a beautiful place. The main gate of Tianjimen is located here. After so many years of operation, Tianjimen here can be considered impregnable. Of course, there will be no blind thieves who would really dare to come to Tianjimen to do evil. When Tianji Sect was founded, it only engaged in the business of selling information. This business finally allowed Tianji Sect to gain a foothold in the Central Plains martial arts world. Tianji Sect was not considered a major martial arts sect at that time, not even a middle-class sect. Those big sects didn’t pay any attention to Tianji Sect. But just a few years later, Tianji Sect not only made a lot of money by selling information, but also recruited a group of amazing disciples. And Tianjisou Zhouli's name gradually became known to more and more people.
On this day, the master and the apprentice finally returned to the foot of Yashan. Yashan is located in the southern part of the Central Plains, only one mountain away from the Zhulong River. It was late spring and early summer, and the scenery was superb. Tianjimen is divided into an upper courtyard and a lower courtyard. The lower courtyard is at the entrance to the mountain and is responsible for receiving all guests who come to visit or buy and sell news. The upper courtyard is where the disciples of Tianjimen stay in their daily lives. The stewards of the House of Commons are on rotation, and today it happened to be Wu Qi's turn.
Wu Qi was lying on a wicker chair basking in the sun at this time. Coming to the House of Commons to manage affairs was definitely a good job for Wu Qi. Several other senior brothers were too lazy to take care of the chores in the lower courtyard, but Wu Qi just liked to take care of these things. Living the life of a master in the lower courtyard made him feel very satisfied.
At this time, a boy ran over and said: "Third Master, the master of the door is back, Third Master!"
Wu Qi came back from Jialan Temple and was punished by Chu Mu to think about his past in Broken Soul Valley. He had just been released and was about to live out his life as a master when he suddenly heard someone say that the master of the sect was back. Wu Qi was so frightened that he jumped out of the wicker chair. He quickly ordered someone to clean up the teapots and bowls next to him, and trotted towards the front door.
When he reached the second door, he saw his master and Lao Qi walking inside. Wu Qi took two steps, walked to Tianjisou, lifted his clothes and knelt down: "Disciple pays homage to master. Master, you are back."
Tianjisou helped Wu Qi up and then pulled him to the inner room. As he walked, he asked if anything happened in the door recently and what new things happened in the world recently. Wu Qidu answered them one by one. Finally, Tianjisou said: "Lao Qi and I will have a rest here and go to the upper courtyard in a while. You go back with me today. I will hold a class to accept disciples tomorrow, and you will also attend. By the way, have you received a letter from me recently?" ?”
"Letter? There are too many letters. I don't know where Master is looking for letters." Wu Qi asked
"Well, do you have the letter from Creation Peak?" Tianjisou asked.
"The golden-backed eagle from Creation Peak did bring a letter five days ago." Wu Qi seemed to have known that his master would read it. He took out an unopened letterbox from his arms and handed it to Tianjisou.
Tianjisou hurriedly took it and opened it. He only glanced at it twice before his expression changed. He stared at the letter and read it carefully several times, then carefully put it in his arms. Du Jie and Wu Qi looked at each other, wondering what was wrong with their master.
Du Jie took advantage of the fact that he had been staying with Tianjisou recently, so he stepped forward and asked with concern: "Master, what's wrong?"
Tianjisou shook his head and did not answer him directly. He just said: "You have a good rest today. Master has to go back to the mountain to deal with things first. Tomorrow, let your senior brother accompany you up the mountain. He knows all the rules here."
Wu Qi was stunned and said: "Master, are you going up the mountain now? The chairs are not even warm yet."
Tianjisou smiled and said: "You little bastard, you want me to leave, it's better than the landlord of the lower courtyard. Third child, if you still don't make progress in the competition at the end of the year, I will let you go to Shura Hall for a year to train." ”
Wu Qigang had a slightly embarrassed expression on his face after hearing the first half of the sentence. After hearing the second half of the sentence, his expression changed drastically and he said, "Master, don't be like this. We can discuss everything easily."
"Hmph!" Tianjisou stopped caring about Wu Qi after humming. He turned to Du Jie and said, "When you enter Tianjimen tomorrow, I will hand you over to your senior brother Chu Mu for a while. Our sect knows a lot about martial arts. You are an apprentice, so I will let him teach you a set of marksmanship first. I will be out again in a few days."
"Master, are you going out again?" Wu Qi and Du Jie were stunned after hearing this.
"Yes, it won't be long. You are born to practice martial arts on Yashan. Don't rank at the bottom in the year-end martial arts competition, otherwise you will suffer." Tianjisou smiled mysteriously, but Wu Qi's face was bitter. down.
Du Jie looked at Tianjisou and then at Wu Qi, somewhat confused as to why they had such expressions. Tianjisou laughed, then stood up and left the lower courtyard. When Wu Qi and Du Jie watched their master leave, Wu Qi turned around and looked at Du Jie, then circled around the latter three times, looking up and down carefully. Finally, he said with a click of his tongue: "Junior brother has become famous all over the country in more than half a month."
After hearing this, Du Jie didn't understand what it meant and asked, "What do you mean, senior brother? I have been following our master faithfully for the past half month."
Wu Qi had a clear expression on his face: "Senior brother knows that senior brother knows that although junior brother has always been with the master, the fact that he was recognized as the master by the Jiutian Soul-Chasing Gun caused such a stir that the whole world already knew about it, especially here. In the past ten days, it has been rumored that it was you Du Jie who unlocked the secret of the Nine Dragons Soul-Chasing Gun. From then on, there will be a powerful young man in the world. Now everyone in the martial arts knows that there is a Du Jie like you. It really makes senior brother I’m so envious.”
After hearing this, Du Jie laughed and said, "I thought it was something, but it turned out to be this. Senior brother, doesn't he still have seven stars?"
Wu Qi shook his head and said: "How can I be the same? This star picking weapon is different from other weapons. Not only do I have to steal it from Gu Wu, but I also have to steal it from the hands of the old man Beiming Monk. I can't even get it. You know how long it can be held, this star-catching weapon is a famous weapon in the weapon spectrum, it is not as impressive as the Nine Dragons Soul-Chasing Spear of Junior Brother."
Du Jie shook his head and said nothing. Wu Qi continued to chatter: "Master asked the senior brother to teach you marksmanship again. The senior brother always loves the junior brother. When you didn't come here, the benefits were all taken by the sixth brother."
"Benefits? What benefits?" Du Jie asked strangely
"Junior brother, don't you know? Oh, no wonder, the master may not have time to tell you, the martial arts of our Tianji Sect is derived from one of the three branches of Taoism, and was mixed into the martial arts of Zen by the master. That's why we have the Tianji Sect. Martial arts that are independent of any sect. And there is a place not far from Yashan that contains martial arts secrets. It is guarded by Sister Ding Feng in the Wanjuan Hidden Flower Cave in Wanbao Mountain. Usually our teacher will teach us in person when he has time. If he doesn’t have time, he will let us know. We go to Zanghua Cave to learn martial arts on our own, but the time to go to Zanghua Cave to learn martial arts is also fixed. The time is completely allocated according to the martial arts examination at the end of the year. In the past, when the martial arts skills of the senior brother were the best, he was considerate of us and would not take more. What, it’s just that the second and fourth children robbed each other so fiercely that I couldn’t even get a few days apart in a year. And the youngest disciple can enter the Hidden Flower Cave at any time as long as he is led by the head brother." Wu Qi said as he said While casting an envious look at Du Jie.
Du Jie's eyes lit up after hearing this: "Oh? There is such a good thing. By the way, senior brother, just now you mentioned the secret of the Kowloon Soul Chasing Gun. My grandfather also told me that there is a big secret hidden in this gun. Senior brother, do you know what it is?"
"You don't know?" Wu Qi glared and said, "You don't know how you made the Nine Dragons Soul Chasing Gun recognize you as its master? You don't even know how I would know!"
"Brother, don't you know?" Du Jie took the gun off his back, touched it with his hand and said
Wu Qi thought for a while and then whispered: "I don't think this Nine Dragons Soul Chasing Gun has any secret at all. I'm afraid it's just a gimmick that our master came up with. His old fox can do any trick. I think it's probably true." Wu Qi said in a low voice. Qi nodded to himself as he spoke. The more he spoke, the more he felt that what he said made sense.
Du Jie was happy when his senior brother said this to his master, and then he said with a smile: "Stop talking about this, senior brother, I have been following the master for the past ten days and I am bored. Has anything interesting happened in the world recently? Come and follow me. Tell me, you can take me around the courtyard later, this is my first time here, and I will have to rely on Third Senior Brother to take care of you from now on."
"Haha, don't worry. In this three-acre area of Tianjimen, as long as it is said by me, Wu Qi, even Old Zhou will have to consider it, don't worry." Wu Qi laughed and hugged Du Jie with his arms. Then he patted the latter on the shoulder.
At dawn the next day, Wu Qi and Du Jie got up early. After breakfast, they took their weapons with them, and then Wu Qi gave instructions to the housekeeper here. He and Du Jie left the lower courtyard and ran to the upper courtyard.
There are three mazes and countless mechanisms on the way from the lower courtyard of Tianjimen to the upper courtyard. Some of these were arranged by Tianjisou himself, and some were designed by Lao Liukong Miaozhi. They were all very special and difficult-to-break mazes and mechanisms. Therefore, the way up the mountain must be led by someone who is familiar with the route, otherwise you may be trapped and die on the cliff.
But I don’t know what happened today. Wu Qi and Du Jie have been walking for two hours, but they haven’t reached the top of the mountain yet. Du Jie was okay, thinking that the mountain was already so high, but Wu Qi was covered with big bumps at this time. Khan, Du Jie even suspected that Wu Qi had forgotten how to leave because he hadn't returned to the Upper House for a long time. Wu Qi wandered around an intersection for a long time, then raised his head and shouted: "Old Liu, you little bastard, have you changed the mechanism and formation? Come out quickly. Otherwise, I will catch you and I will be cruel." Give you a good beating."
