"Disciple thought earlier that this Mountain God Sacrifice event was exceptionally well designed. It turned out to be the work of the Dharma Protector Elder. It's no wonder." Chu Liang laughed quickly.
"It sounds nice to talk, and my brain is good enough. It's a pity that I don't take the right path, but..."
The elder protector smiled and said a few words. He was about to say that he looks a bit like your master, but then he thought about how Emperor Nv Feng didn't follow this path. It's really hard to say whether this kid learned from Emperor Nv Feng.
After a pause, he continued: "There is a bit of the unscrupulous merchant spirit of Taotie City."
"Hehe." Chu Liang could only laugh twice.
Although Taotie City has brought great convenience to the world of immortality on the one hand, on the other hand it has indeed brought about a bad trend of completely pursuing profit.
Many old-school practitioners still believe that cultivating immortals should have a transcendent and supernatural spirit. And they couldn't stand the businessman's mercenary attitude.
As a representative of traditional immortal sects, Shushan naturally has a majority of old-school sects.
"To be honest, you really gave us elders quite a headache." The guardian elder looked at Chu Liang with interest, "The Mountain God Festival has been going on for thousands of years, and it is rare to see such a misbehaving disciple."
He did tell the truth.
Chu Liang sells clues, collects talismans... All commercial activities are to make profits through mountain god sacrifices, but they do not violate the rules. He is just like an outlaw who wanders on the edge of the mountain gate's regulations.
In the end, the only way to sanction him was to add conditions, and there was already nothing that could be done against him.
Just when Chu Liang was a little nervous, he heard the guardian elder continue to speak.
"But I'm very optimistic about you. Being cunning is another way of saying being clever. It's just that being resourceful is not enough to get things done. You need a leader to lead you on the right path..." He paused and looked at Chu with a smile. Liang: "Do you want to come to the Dharma Protector Hall?"
Clam?
This turn of events made Chu Liang startled.
Did he come to invite me?
Among the four major halls, the Dharma Protector Hall recruits the fewest deacon disciples. At least the only one Chu Liang had ever seen was the senior brother with a square face.
It may be because the Dharma Protector Hall has relatively few affairs, or it may be because this location is more valuable.
If you are a deacon in the Chuanjian Hall, you will not use all the magic weapons casually; if you are a deacon in the Alchemy Hall, you will not take all the elixirs casually; but in the Dharma Protector Hall, you will be able to read almost all magical powers and techniques casually.
After all, Kung Fu books are different from magic weapons and elixirs. As long as you see them, you have already earned them.
Chu Liang asked with some confusion: "Is the Dharma Protector Hall short of deacon disciples?"
"I'm not talking about the deacon disciples, but the personal disciples." The elder protector said slowly.
"Ah?" Chu Liang was even more surprised.
The deacon disciples at the entrance of a church are more like apprentices. Just like Chen Su, who has his own teacher at the top of the mountain and just studies alchemy in his spare time.
But direct disciples, like Liu Qin and Lu Xun of Dandingtang, worship Elder Zhenshan as their master and are the true heirs of the mantle.
Of course, there can only be one master who can be passed down personally.
Chu Liang's first reaction was to glance at Emperor Nvfeng's attic and said with a guilty conscience: "I don't dare to say this on Silver Sword Peak..."
"Oh, how could I be afraid of a junior like her..." The guardian elder smiled lightly and added, "I have used secret techniques to seal the surrounding area, so the sound of our conversation will not be heard at all."
"That's good." Chu Liang breathed a sigh of relief.
The emperor's daughter Feng never held back when beating the old man, and he knew this well.
As for poaching, this is not the first time I have experienced it. But this is indeed the first time I have seen someone who blatantly came to Yinjian Peak to poach people.
After thinking about it, he said tactfully: "The guardian elders value me, and I am really flattered. But I am a Shushan disciple wherever I am, so why should I change my family?"
The elder protector heard this and said, "That's true, but your master is the Emperor's daughter Phoenix, isn't she?"
This moment is just like that moment.
Chu Liang couldn't help but laugh in his heart, but he still said with a serious expression on his face: "My master saved my life and took me up the mountain, just like my biological parents. How can my disciples abandon me?"
The elder protector looked at Chu Liang and nodded suddenly, his eyes showing undisguised appreciation.
The Zhufeng system on Shushan Mountain is destined that no matter how outstanding a disciple is, it is difficult for him to receive direct attention from the top management. The most important person for his growth is his master. And Emperor Nv Feng is obviously an unqualified master, and the help she can give to her disciples is not much...even the negatives outweigh the positives.
but.
Facing such a character, Chu Liang couldn't bear to abandon him, but instead showed his side of love and justice.
Today's protection elder is more like a test than a recruitment. If Chu Liang is really tempted to change his family, then no matter how smart he is, he is not worthy of being trained as Shushan's future successor.
From this moment on, the guardian elder really listed Chu Liang as one of the future of Shushan.
Originally, there were only two people in this generation who had this status, namely Xu Ziyang and Jiang Yuebai. They also went through many tests to reach their current status. And Chu Liang's sudden emergence made Shushan's senior officials see a new seed.
The shape is a bit strange...but it is a promising seed for the future.
"You do have a side of friendship." The elder protector smiled, nodded, waved his hand, and said: "By the way, before I leave, I have a message for Elder Alchemy. He said that top-grade Qingdan is now sold for 10,000 sword coins. One."
Naturally, Chu Liang didn't know the protector elder's thoughts. He just looked at the change in his eyes and vaguely felt that he had made the right choice.
When he suddenly heard that the high-grade Qingdan cost 10,000 sword coins, Chu Liang frowned and felt that things were not simple.
Ten thousand, you might as well come and grab it directly.
Why give me a pill back?
But then I thought about it, this is probably a recycling mechanism for the senior elders of Shushan to recycle their income this time.
The sword coins I earned this time were 15,600. They recovered a large part of them this way, and they didn't care about the rest. Then the top spot in the Mountain God Festival can still be awarded to yourself, after all, it is what you deserve.
If you want to win the first place, you have to give up your wealth...
The elder protector drifted away, leaving Chu Liang alone in silence.
…
At night, the soul arresting order suddenly shook.
Chu Liang had previously opened the orifice for Liu Xiaoyu and helped her open up the path to the dragon's blood secret method. He had just fallen asleep when he suddenly woke up again.
This thing hadn't sounded for a long time, and he had almost forgotten about it. Now when it rings, it is inevitable to feel a little nervous again.
[Dongfang Reception]: "Everyone, the Marquis has summoned you."
[Fifty-nine]: "Ah ah ah ah, is it finally here? Is it about going undercover in the Bone Palace? I have been looking forward to this day for a long time, and the day has finally arrived. The time to dedicate myself to the Marquis has finally arrived, I am so excited. ah……"
[Sixty]: "When? Where to go?"
Chu Liang looked at the replies of the two people in front of him and felt like the world was filled with ice and fire. Under their background, he seemed to be the only normal person in the group whenever he said anything.
[Fifty-Eight]: "Received, please take instructions from your Excellency."
[Introduction from the East]: "There is news that there will be a large-scale change in the Palace of Bones, and we are expanding our manpower. This will be a good opportunity for you to sneak into the Palace of Bones. In three days, someone will pick you up and go to assemble, so be prepared."
[Sixty]: "Received."
【58】: "Received."
[Fifty-nine]: "Oh my God, this is about to begin. I'm really a little nervous. Does Mr. Jieyin have any suggestions for us? Who is going to meet us? Is there anyone who has already lurked into the Bone Palace? If you can do it, can you? Have you seen Mr. Hou? Is his injury healed?"
There was no more movement from Dongfang Jieyin.
Cannot read back.
