When it was daylight, Wei Shiqi woke up leisurely and found that his master and fellow disciples were beside him, looking at him strangely.
Qi Yunhe said expressionlessly: "Disciple, you're awake, you're snoring very loudly, that's earth-shattering, it's a thousand twists and turns, it's very imposing." Everyone tightened their faces, and it was very hard to hold back their laughter. Even Qin Zhen, who had always been reserved, had a crooked look on her face, showing her "disrespect" towards her senior brother.
Wei Shiqi was a little embarrassed. He knew that he would snore when he was tired, but due to some obvious reasons, he had never heard it with his own ears.
"Gulu...Gulu..." Wei Shiqi felt hungry and his stomach growled. When he woke up with his snoring, his stomach growled, and he had nothing but food and wine. Everyone could no longer hold on and finally laughed out loud. Even Qi Yunhe couldn't help laughing.
"I didn't see you back until midnight yesterday. I thought there was an accident and spent the night looking for you. Then I heard a snoring sound and then I touched you here. Tell me, what happened?"
Wei Shiqi remembered the line between life and death last night, his face changed drastically, he pointed in the direction where the snake venom spread, and shouted: "You must not go there!"
"Huh?" Qi Yunhe frowned.
The moment of testing has arrived. Wei Shiqi told the story of meeting the man in Tsing Yi and inhaling the snake venom. He told it intermittently and intermittently. Ninety-nine percent of it was true. He only concealed one small and insignificant detail - he Swallowing the snake meat alive and absorbing the energy from it - created an illusion for Qi Yunhe. After being poisoned, the apprentice struggled to practice the skills on the fragments of the animal skin. By a strange combination of circumstances, he used the essence of moonlight to detoxify the poison in his body.
Qi Yunhe is an old man in the world, and even he didn't hear any problem, not to mention the others, all of them felt lucky for Wei Shiqi.
Qi Yunhe lowered his head and thought for a moment, then told his disciples to stay where they were and not to leave. He followed the traces left by Wei Shiqi and came to the place where the python died. Looking up, he saw that the deer that Wei Shiqi had hunted had been infected with snake venom and was all black. A hunting fork was leaning on it. On the ground, not far away, a snake head rolled to the side, dripping with blood, but there was no python corpse. It may have been taken away by the man in green clothes. The surroundings were filled with poisonous poison, making people want to vomit. He sighed, took out a porcelain bottle from his sleeve, activated his energy, put away all the snake venom, and restored peace to the forest.
Qi Yunhe cleaned up the mess and returned to his apprentices. He waved his hand and told them to hurry up and go on their way. He seemed a little uneasy. Yue Zhilan distributed the dry food to his junior brothers and sisters, and handed a piece to Wei Shiqi. Wei Shiqi shook his head, indicating that he did not eat pasta.
Everyone followed Qi Yunhe on the road, chewing a few mouthfuls of dry food to satisfy their hunger. Wei Shiqi was so hungry that his stomach thundered, but he never said a word.
This day we walked non-stop over mountains and ridges, and by the time we rested at dusk, we had traveled more than a hundred miles. Under the setting sun, two steep peaks looked like sharp swords thrust into the sky. Qi Yunhe breathed a sigh of relief and said: "This is already the territory of the Xiandu Sect. If we drive for another day, we can reach the foot of Tiandu Peak. "
Yue Zhilan settled down his junior brothers and sisters, fetched water and lit a fire, and prepared to sleep in the open air. Wei Shiqi went to the forest to hunt a wild boar, skinned it, removed its internal organs, and roasted it on the fire. Yue Zhilan started to operate the knife. One of the fattest front legs was used to honor his master, and the other was given to the younger junior brothers and sisters. Knowing that Junior Brother had a big food store and he had been hungry for another day, he chopped off a hind leg and gave it to Wei Shiqi.
Wei Shiqi tore and tore pieces of wild boar meat into his mouth. He chewed them a few times and swallowed them. In no time at all, he ate the entire leg cleanly. He was still not satisfied and even broke the leg bones. , sucking bone marrow. Even though he controlled his appetite and tried his best to behave politely, he was still no different from a hungry beast in the eyes of the Song brothers and Qin Zhen.
The firelight shone on Qi Yunhe's face, and he threw the leftover bones into the fire, wiped off the oil on his Taoist robe, and said: "The man in green may be the Qidu of the Pingyuan sect. The Pingyuan sect It is also a side branch of Kunlun, Taoism's original heart, which emphasizes no good and no evil, and sticks to its original intention. He watches you being poisoned, but does not help, because 'not to save' is his original intention."
Song Qi couldn't help but interjected: "Everyone has a heart of compassion. How could he not save someone in the face of death?"
Qi Yunhe said: "The words of vulgar scholars cannot be taken seriously. Let me ask you, if you peed into an ant nest and drowned hundreds of ants, would you have any compassion?"
Song Qi did not dare to refute his master and whispered: "How can humans and ants be compared..."
"In Qi Du's eyes, we are just ants." Wei Shiqi brought the topic back again, "Master, Qi Du is in the Pingyuan Sect, but is he a worthy figure?"
"Ten sons of Pingyuan, Qi Du ranks sixth, and the old Taoist... feels inferior." Qi Yunhe was worried that his apprentice was eager for revenge, so he specially mentioned a few words to him. He originally wanted to say "out of reach", but then he thought about it and said in front of his apprentice Self-deprecation is too shameless, so I changed it to "feeling ashamed".
Wei Shiqi was a smart man and immediately understood the implication of Qi Yunhe's words. He buried his hatred deeper, without showing any signs of strangeness on his face, and continued to ask: "Besides the Pingyuan Sect and our Xiandu Sect, are there any other branches of Kunlun? "
Qi Yunhe raised his fingers and said, "Liyang, Xuantong, Yuanrong, Shaoling, Yuxu, plus Pingyuan and Xiandu are called the seven side branches. The Taoism of the seven sects all originated from Kunlun. If you are successful in your cultivation, , and also have the opportunity to worship Kunlun and get a glimpse of the supreme sword technique."
A few words made everyone feel like frogs in a well, giving birth to infinite emotion and yearning. Becoming a disciple of Xiandu is just the first step in a long journey. If we use the analogy of ants, they have just climbed a big tree and are still far away from the sky. Out of reach.
Thinking of Qi Yunhe's previous fear, Wei Shiqi speculated that although the seven sects of the side branch came from Kunlun together, they might not have a harmonious relationship with each other. He was fortunate that the snake venom attacked quickly and his mouth and tongue were numb, and he did not have time to reveal his identity to Qidu. If he knew that he was worshiping Will Xiandu's disciples stretch out a thumb and crush them to death?
Things have changed, and there will never be an answer to this question, and Wei Shiqi doesn't want to know the answer.
Qin Zhen listened very carefully and asked: "The Taoism of the Pingyuan Sect is based on the original intention, which emphasizes no good and no evil and sticks to the original intention. What about our Xiandu Sect?"
Qi Yunhe said slowly and calmly: "The Taoism of the Xiandu Sect emphasizes being spotless and having no worries. Tell me, what exactly is this Taoism? Which one is right? The old Taoist will give you another Yinxu Pill."
Everyone thought about it and talked about it. Song Qi's guesses follow his heart, and Song Ji's guesses do not exceed the rules. They have attended private schools, memorized the Four Books, and like to think in the words of sages in everything. Yue Zhilan guessed the silence. He heard Deng Zhang recite a stanza, "The body is like a bodhi tree, and the mind is like a mirror. I must brush it diligently at all times to prevent it from causing dust."
Qi Yunhe shook his head, it was all wrong.
Qin Zhen was young and thought for a long time without saying a word. Wei Shiqi said: "But Zi Zi?"
Qi Yunhe took a Yinxu Pill and gave it to this seemingly rude but in fact careful apprentice. Wei Shiqi casually gave the pill to his junior sister Qin Zhen - Yue Zhilan is the senior brother, and the Song brothers should not favor one over the other. She is the youngest, and she is a beauty with picturesque features, so she must be taken care of.
Qin Zhen glanced at her master and saw him nodding slightly. She immediately took the Yinxu Pill and thanked her senior brother. She felt a little confused, but also a little happy.
