I am Zhao Zhijing, a poor Taoist priest, and I have disciples all over the world.

Chapter 29: The Eighteen Vajra
Zhao Zhijing explained to several fellow apprentices how difficult his situation was, but there was no room for discussion regarding the apprentice.

Now that Wang Chuyi is not in Mount Zhongnan, after they return to Chongyang Palace, Zhao Zhijing will naturally go to the head teacher Ma Yu to explain everything.

Although Li Zhichang felt that something seemed to be wrong, Zhao Zhijing was the leader among the seven people, and he himself was a disciple of Qiu Chuji, so it was indeed not appropriate for him to comment too much on Zhao Zhijing's decision to accept disciples.

Just like that, several people, each with their own thoughts, went back to their guest rooms, either to wash and meditate, or to blow out the lights and rest, each doing their own thing.

Zhao Zhijing closed the door, and the corners of his mouth, which were originally downwards, slowly curled up, and he was obviously very happy.

When I first went down the mountain, I thought it was another voluntary contribution, but I didn't expect to meet Yelu Qi and Guan Man'er one after another, and suddenly I had two more disciples.

In this way, including Yang Guo and Lu Qingdu's original sixteen disciples, there are now eighteen disciples.

From now on, you will be the Eighteen Vajra under the master’s seat.

It just corresponds to the eighteen kinds of weapons. Everyone masters one, and then forms the Eighteen Bronze Men Formation of Chongyang Palace. It’s exciting just thinking about it.

Zhao Zhijing washed up while thinking about random things. It was already late at night, so after he had finished cleaning up, he went straight to the bed to meditate.

After returning to Chongyang Palace this time, there shouldn't be anything that requires going down the mountain in the short term.

The only two people who need attention are Zhou Botong and Ouyang Feng.

Zhou Botong was easy to deal with. There were still some Tai Chi moves left, so he could just pass them on slowly. After all the Tai Chi moves were passed on, he could also say that the master in his dream had given him a set of Tai Chi sword.

Even the great master Zhang Sanfeng had to be 120 years old to create this set of Tai Chi sword.

No matter how solid Zhou Botong's foundation is, it will definitely take him quite a long time to slowly digest it before he can fully comprehend it.

Moreover, Yelu Qi was taught by Zhou Botong. The higher Zhou Botong's martial arts skills were, the more Yelu Qi would benefit from them.

As for Ouyang Feng, he will most likely head towards Mount Zhongnan in the next two days to look for Yang Guo.

Although Mount Zhongnan is several hundred miles in radius, and the Quanzhen Sect is on high alert since the last riot in Chongyang Palace, it is definitely not able to defend against a master of Ouyang Feng's level.

If he insisted on taking Yang Guo away at that time, he really couldn't think of a perfect plan at the moment.

For the time being, we can pin our hopes on the remaining power of Master Chongyang. Back then, Ouyang Feng was defeated by Wang Chongyang, who faked his death, who used his Xiantian Gong to activate the One Yang Finger, which broke the Toad Skill in one move. Ouyang Feng retreated to the Western Regions with severe injuries and did not dare to set foot in the Central Plains for more than ten years.

Now that he has returned to Chongyang Palace, Ouyang Feng might still remember this old incident, so he would be wary and would not dare to cross the line easily.

Of course, we cannot pin all our hopes on such an illusory thing. The final trump card is still the Quanzhen Sect's Big Dipper Formation.

The reason why Guo Jing was able to break the formation on his own was that he had received guidance from Ma Yu and others. Firstly, he was very familiar with the Quanzhen martial arts, and secondly, he also knew the location of the core of the Tiangang Big Dipper Formation.

If it were Ouyang Feng, who didn't understand the changes in the Big Dipper Formation, even if he couldn't capture him, he should be able to stop him outside Chongyang Palace.

But if the two sides really fought, even if they could stop Ouyang Feng, many disciples in Chongyang Palace would suffer casualties.

"Qiu Chuji, Wang Chuyi and the others seem to have to wait until the end of the year to return to the mountain. There are still three months left. I hope everything will be fine inside and outside Chongyang Palace."

After thinking about the two important things, Zhao Zhijing began to think about the two apprentices he had just accepted.

Most of what Zhou Botong passed on to Yelu Qi were Quanzhen martial arts, and of course there was also the 72-move Kongming Fist that he created through the "Tao Te Ching".

As long as Yelu Qi practices Kongming Fist, Zhao Zhijing will be able to comprehend the boxing moves at ten times the speed. The deficiencies can also be supplemented by comparing with the "Tao Te Ching".

The 72-Move Kongming Fist is extremely yin and gentle, with numerous moves and endless variations. Zhao Zhijing felt that it was just right for Yang Guo at this time. He was active and erratic when young, and he was not as steady as the sword demon Dugu Qiubai who learned the Xuantie swordsmanship after experiencing many hardships and breaking an arm.

Unfortunately, Yelu Qi was very talented and could not learn Zhou Botong's other unique skill, "Left-right Fighting Technique", otherwise he would be even more powerful.

With Guan Maner's personality, it shouldn't be difficult for him to learn how to fight with both hands.

According to Guan Changhong, Guan Man'er spent six years without being able to learn a single sword technique.

Therefore, after returning to the mountain this time, I should change my thinking and start with internal strength. After all, Quanzhen Sect's internal strength is the authentic Xuanmen, and I may get unexpected gains.

"The charge Guan Man'er made just now was as powerful as a running bull. Most martial artists who only practice external skills cannot do that."

When others meditate and practice qigong, they try to forget about themselves and the world, enter a state of emptiness, clarity and tranquility, and let their inner energy circulate in the body over and over again.

Zhao Zhijing meditates out of habit, as this state is more conducive to thinking.

After much thought, perhaps the most suitable martial arts for Guan Maner to practice are the Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palms or the Dragon Elephant Prajna Paramita Sutra, which are extremely strong and masculine.

But there is no way to obtain these two kinds of martial arts for the time being.

Lu Youjiao, who is currently working at the Changhong Escort Agency, can also use a few moves of the Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palms, but although he is generous and honest, it is impossible for him to use the Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palms to make friends.

After all, there is no such thing as a friendship where one would sacrifice one's wife and children for others.

Zhao Zhijing was thinking about how to teach Guan Maner. Before he knew it, the night had deepened and he began to feel sleepy.

The next morning, Zhao Zhijing got up early, and soon a disciple from the Changhong Escort Agency brought him breakfast.

Although it is still a vegetarian dish, you can tell that a lot of effort has been put into it: the porridge is fragrant, the pastries are soft, the side dishes are all fresh, and the seasoning is just right.

After breakfast, after a cup of tea, someone came to invite Zhao Zhijing and Chief Escort Guan to wait in the living room in the backyard.

Lu Youjiao, who loves to join in the fun, was not present this time. He was busy with many matters in the Beggars' Sect. He had to bring the news from Mongolia mentioned yesterday back to the south to ask Sect Leader Huang for a decision.

So he said goodbye to Guan Changhong early, and said hello to Zhao Zhijing before leaving. If he was traveling in the world in the future and needed the Beggars' Gang, he should just mention Lu Youjiao's name.

“The green mountains will never change, and the green waters will always flow.”

After Lu Youjiao left first, Zhao Zhijing and six other fellow apprentices came to the living room in the backyard again. Guan Changhong was already waiting at the door with Guan Shengnan and her brother.

Guan Changhong has already dealt with most of the matter regarding the root of the trouble. Just as Zhao Zhijing said, the Quanzhen Sect, the Beggars' Sect, and the Changhong Escort Agency have all put in a lot of effort.

While openly repairing the plank road, they secretly attacked Chencang. On this side, the people in Xianyang City entertained various heroes to attract attention, while on the other side, elite troops had already been sent out and killed Huo Shigen by surprise.

"Of course, this great victory also relied heavily on the presence of all the heroes and brave men, who were able to scare away the evil monster that brought disaster to the world!"

"After all the hardship from the journey, Changhong Escort Agency offers you a small gift. It is not a token of respect, but I hope you heroes will accept it with a smile."

Guan Changhong was very generous and gave travel expenses to all the martial arts people present. However, some of them felt that they had not contributed anything or they valued the moral principles of the martial arts world and refused to accept the money.

But most people came to Xianyang just to have a meal. They didn't have to really fight with the source of trouble, and they had money to take with them. After returning, they were naturally happy to talk about this matter and show off to their friends.
