The place where senior brother Bu Rugui lives is actually in the maple forest on the main peak of Canyang Peak. It should be said that Chen Qiansuan and several of his disciples' caves are in that maple forest mountain with an area of more than 20,000 acres. Dai's 'Landscape Residence' is the closest to the third senior sister's 'Baby Residence', and the farthest from the eighth junior brother Fan Changge's cave, while the senior brother's 'Guichen Cave' is located in the middle of the mountain.
As soon as they entered, everyone was present except for the eighth junior brother who was still training, the fifth senior brother who had left, and the master who was in 'reclusion'.
Entering the Guichen Cave, Li Dai discovered that this cave was supposed to be a cave for two people to live alone. When they first entered, they saw a stone wall hall that looked like it was dug out. It was no different from a real cave, except that it was larger and had more complete facilities.
On the left and right walls of the stone wall hall, there are obviously two protruding button mechanisms. This is equivalent to an independent cave with "two rooms and one living room" that does not disturb each other.
Therefore, Li Dai guessed that the elder brother's cave must have been shared by two people in the past.
Then I thought about the name of Senior Brother's Cave - Guichen Cave. Guichen Cave, didn't it just take the word "Gui" from Senior Brother Bu Rugui and the word "Chen" from Mo Ban Chen.
Li Dai's guess was correct. Bu Rugui saw that she was interested in the mechanism of two separate holes and couldn't help but said:
"The branch cave on the right is for Xiaochen. I remember when master brought Xiaochen and his sister back, Xiaochen was only three years old at that time. Master didn't have so much energy to take care of the children, so I dug in my own cave. There are two sub-cave houses, one big and one small. Your fifth senior brother Xiaochen lives in the small one on the right, and I live in the one on the left."
"Later, when your fifth senior brother got older, he stopped getting close to me. When he was ten years old, he moved out directly, saying that he wanted to be independent."
"But I have always kept that small cave for him."
…
After this, Li Dai could completely imagine the days when Bu Rugui was a nanny. Speaking of Chen Qiansuan's apprentices, they were not very old. It was his senior brother Bu Rugui, who was regarded as eight senior brothers and sisters. The oldest one among them is now almost over 400 years old, and the number of years that a Danjie monk can live is only about 500 or 600 years old, so her elder brother's life is running out.
If you still can't break through, you will really run out of life and die, just as the master said.
Judging from these details, this senior brother has contributed a lot to every junior brother and sister below, especially the fifth senior brother Mo Chenchen. According to this statement, he should have been raised by senior brother Bu Rugui, but Li Dai did not feel how much he relied on his senior brother, but instead she could not forget the 'irresponsible' master.
Li Dai couldn't figure out the reason, and it was hard to ask at this time. As the senior brother entered the sub-cave house on the left, the mechanism was opened, and the entire Guichen Cave barrier was opened, and everyone followed the senior brother and walked in.
As soon as the person entered, there was another "bang", the protruding stone like a pheasant shook, and the opened stone door closed again, and they arrived at the private area where the senior brother actually meditated.
"Everyone, sit down. You don't have to be polite here, senior brother." Bu Rugui greeted everyone and sat down around the only square stone table in the cave. He also served tea to everyone. The taste of the tea was exactly what Li Dai asked the third senior sister to bring to everyone. The senior brothers and sisters brewed the elemental tea and said while making Bu Rugui:
"The taste of this tea is far-reaching and pure. Drinking it can make people feel the movement of the elements of heaven and earth and the original spirituality, helping us to break through. Such tea is exactly what Xiaoqi gave to my senior brother. There is no other good tea here. For tea, I will borrow flowers and offer them to Buddha to entertain you."
"Senior Brother!" Before Li Dai could speak, Third Senior Sister Yang Yueying spoke up, frowning, "Senior Brother, there's no need for this. Junior Sister Seven also gave us this strange magical tea, and we can all drink it, but this tea is precious, and Junior Sister Seven doesn't have much. Its effect is too great. Now, senior brother, you urgently need it to realize the breakthrough, so it really shouldn’t be wasted on us."
"Yue Ying is right." Second senior brother Mu Canyang also nodded in agreement.
"Yes, what the Seventh Junior Sister gave me this time is enough to keep the baby healthy and my cultivation level will not drop. Senior Brother, there is no need to waste his tea."
…
Li Dai listened to their words and thought about the inexhaustible Lingsu tea on the branches in the space. For the first time, she felt a little guilty because what she gave was too little. .
But the guilt didn't last long, and Li Dai calmed down.
She understood that the brothers and sisters present cherished what she gave so much because of its rare, magical and shocking effects. If it was taken out like cabbage, it would not necessarily be a good thing.
Therefore, Li Dai does not regret her decision before taking action, and she will not give anyone the chance to hurt her, even if they are her senior brothers and sisters, it seems that they will never hurt her.
But life is a gamble, and human nature cannot stand the test. Take Fourth Senior Sister Luo Yanfei as an example. If she compares her secret with the safety of her son in the future, she believes that Fourth Senior Sister will definitely choose to betray her son in order to choose to keep it. Himself, that's unequivocal.
This kind of choice is human nature. Everyone has the people they want to protect the most, and she, Li Dai, also has those spirits who are dependent on her life and death. So this is the difference between closeness and distance. Between the people closest to you and your senior brothers and sisters, When siblings make a choice, the answer is self-evident.
So the only way is to make your true trump card less exposed in front of anyone.
Of course, what Li Dai said about the balanced choice between Fourth Senior Sister and her son was just an illusion that Li Dai thought about, but since this possibility exists, it means that it will not happen at all, so the reason why the secret is a secret , that means no one will tell, no one dares to tell.
Others are just senior brothers and sisters, and even Taoist couples have their own independent secrets.
The world of cultivation is between children. Male and female cultivators who are trying to reach the top will not let their Taoist partners or children know their true trump card. If the Taoist partner is a good one, he will keep it a secret for you, but the children will also be able to grow up in the future. , I have my own lover and my own children, there is no difference between telling them and completely exposing myself.
It is precisely because Li Dai has seen through this that for so many years, apart from being a little naive when she first entered the world of cultivation, Space let Lu Zhi know about it, but she has not told anyone else.
Now Luzhi has left her to practice everywhere, and she doesn't know where she is. After not seeing her for so many years, Li Dai actually regrets telling Luzhi about the space in the first place.
At that time, she was on guard. Li Dai had sworn an oath not to expose any information about her space, otherwise she would die in a state of confusion. But if Luzhi finally gave up on the path of a monk, found a man, got married, and chose to sacrifice herself for What about her family considerations?
What if someone directly searched for the soul of Green Branch?
These are all issues that Li Dai worries about.
It can only be said that she was still too young at that time, so when she returned to the sect this time, after her affairs were almost settled, she would look for the person she accepted, whether it was Lu Zhi or Zhan Tai Qingqing who swore to follow her forever. I went to find these two people and asked them what they were doing and what they had done over the years.
Not to mention those things, Li Dai was still thinking a lot, but she heard her senior brother walking back home saying:
"So, everyone knows how stupid and innocent our seventh junior sister is. The seventh junior sister stupidly gave us all the good things she had, and in the Criminal Law Hall, she had no choice but to tell her true cultivation level. Now It seems that they have escaped, but the situation of Seventh Junior Sister will be even more dangerous."
"Seventh Junior Sister is less than a hundred years old, but she already has the cultivation of integration. Everyone will have random thoughts, thinking that Seventh Junior Sister has a strange treasure, so it will be dangerous if such Seventh Junior Sister is targeted by those old monsters with evil intentions. "
"Even if the seniors of our sect are upright and don't take the junior sister's attention away from them, if the junior sister's affairs are announced, the old monsters from other sects will probably be very interested in her. Now I invite you all to come here to discuss everyone's opinions. What do you think? Protect junior sister."
Li Dai: "..."
She was completely confused after hearing this.
She actually dared to reveal her strength, not only because Gan Xirou was forced to take action too quickly at that time, but also because she felt that no one in Cangyun Continent could do anything to her due to her physique and soul. But now she doesn't want to let her senior brothers and sisters suffer as a result of such a direct explosion. So worried.
Li Dai coughed slightly and smiled, saying:
"Senior brother, it doesn't have to be like this. Even if I reveal my true strength, only the seniors in the sect know about it today. I can also see clearly that most of those seniors are good and won't do anything to me."
As for the one or two people who had an instant desire to covet them, Li Dai didn't know them, but their cultivation as gods was not something Li Dai noticed at all.
"Junior sister!" Bu Rugui became serious, "You are so naive! In this way, you have cultivated to the late integration stage with the three spiritual roots at the age of only seventy-one. Do you know how big a sensation this will be? Not only can this Encouraging those monks with weak spiritual roots to work hard and make progress is also a wake-up call for the geniuses of the sect to make them work harder."
"Looking at the interests of the sect as a whole, Senior Lu and Ancestor Hongfeng will definitely set you up as a benchmark to attract more people to the Tianyan Sect, and maybe even hold a special ceremony for you. You have to know that the sect Once the sect has broken through to the Nascent Soul, a grand ceremony can be held, allowing representatives of the sects to participate, and as a young fusion monk like you, the sect will not let go of the opportunity to become famous."
"So you should think about avoiding the edge for a while and not show too much specialness."
Bu Rugui’s words. She directly told Li Dai that she was confused. She looked at her senior brothers and sisters who were looking at her with worried eyes. She once again felt a little guilty. It was rare for her to be sentimental. "You don't have to worry. Even if there are those who don't have eyes to mess with me, I will Even the explosion of the name talisman left by the great master of transcending tribulations can withstand it. What else can hurt me, but..." At this point, Li Dai hesitated and then said: "It's just that I said before that I was an early-stage cultivator of distraction. Aren’t you angry because I hid it from you?”
"Hahaha." Bu Rugui laughed and touched Li Dai's head, "How could he be angry? Our Xiaoqi has a sense of crisis and knows how to keep trump cards for herself. It's too late for us senior brothers and sisters to be happy. "
"Do you think so?" He asked as he looked at the second senior brother, the third senior sister, the fourth senior sister and the sixth senior brother.
Several people nodded in agreement.
"That's how you should be!" Bu Rugui sighed, and then took a deep breath, "It's just that because of special circumstances, you have exposed yourself. Even if you don't have any treasures, as long as the sect promotes you as a benchmark, those Old monsters will also target you, many people will target you."
"You will get a lot of admiration from people, but the situation will only become more dangerous."
"But we know that in the face of the interests of the sect, individuals will always have to make concessions, so I called everyone here today. I hope..." After saying this, his expression became extremely serious, and even lost his usual gentleness like the warm sun. Instead, he said with a strong look:
"I hope that no matter how other people treat Junior Sister, how other people covet Xiao Qi's things, and what other people think, our fellow Senior Sisters and Brothers at Setting Sun Peak will never do anything to harm Xiao Qi! You must think about Xiao Qi! Seven is good to you, don't be that ungrateful person." He called people over, mainly because he was worried that the Fourth Junior Sister and the narrow-minded Sixth Junior Brother would be beaten by them, so Bu Rugui's words were not polite at all and could be said to be very straightforward. Bai even directly named Sixth Junior Brother Jie Xixia and said:
"Xiao Liu is born with a narrow heart, which is very good, but when helping others, you should consider the difference between closeness and distance. If you help others at the expense of hurting Xiao Qi, you can even use it to save you if you think Xiao Qi has something good. Those so-called passers-by and friends have put Xiao Qi in danger, so I, the senior brother, will never let him off lightly!"
"No matter how narrow-minded you are, Xiao Liu, and how much you love to help others, always remember that you can do good deeds, but you must estimate your own abilities, and don't bring down other brothers and sisters just because you are a good person. That's not a good idea. This is stupid behavior!”
What he said made Jie Xixia blush. He was often scolded by his senior brother in the past. Unexpectedly, now that the seventh junior sister is back, he finally managed to have some respect as a senior brother, but he was wiped out by his senior brother.
However, the words of the eldest brother are also very reasonable. Whether he was in the mortal world or now in the cultivation world, his narrow heart has never changed, and his innocent heart has not changed. He still likes to draw his sword to help when there is injustice on the road, but as the eldest brother said In that way, helping others depends on your own strength, and you can't hurt others just because you want to do narrow things. He didn't think about these issues before, but he will definitely remember them in the future.
"I know, senior brother." Jiexixia looked like this, and Li Dai couldn't help but laugh.
This Sixth Senior Brother, after so many years of not seeing each other, still looks good.
"In addition, Xiaoqi, what I want to tell you is that after your grand ceremony is held and the various sects come to watch the ceremony, you can either disguise yourself and continue to go out to practice, or you can train yourself in a restricted area of the sect, which is relatively safe."
"Yes, the sect's forbidden area is indeed an excellent place for training. Only those who have achieved a breakthrough in spiritual transformation can enter. Don't miss this opportunity like Xiaoqi's."
"Yes." Li Dai nodded. She felt like she was alive after comparing it to her senior brother's cave.
She never knew that her senior brothers and sisters could be such long-winded people. After the first senior brother spoke, the second senior brother spoke right next to each other. Li Dai listened for seven hours, but it tortured her terribly.
As for the grand ceremony that the senior brothers and the others attached great importance to, Li Dai didn't worry at all about the various sects coming to watch the ceremony. Not to mention that the sect had not yet notified whether any ceremony would be held for her, even if it was held, Li Dai was not afraid.
Since you can't keep a low profile, now that you have the strength, it's not impossible to be as high-profile as you want.
What's more, Wanjian Sect, Zhenqian Sect, Danyun Sect, Fuhuo Sect...those old friends can also meet.
