book of mountains and seas

Hall of Longevity.

Chang Yuan stayed in the Hall of Eternal Life after noon, and Ji Ziyong was ordered around by them.Now he has come to a conclusion: as long as Chang Yuan is around, things will become complicated.

Speaking of his master, that is, Fang Xiaotang's father, Jinyuan Xianzun, he basically never told him how his kung fu was doing, but this Changyuan Xianzun kept a close eye on him.

"Ziyong, let me see how my kung fu is doing now."

"Ziyong, how are you reciting spells?"

"Ziyong, you can't do this."

"Zi Yong..."

Gradually, Ji Ziyong discovered that this Changyuan Immortal might just be afraid that he would get into the water with his beloved apprentice.Thinking of this, Ji Ziyong's heart trembled slightly.

Thinking about being here in Jin Yuan, he is like a wild horse that has run free.So Ji Ziyong found out again, maybe his master just knew that someone was taking care of him, so he just ignored it.

Now Ji Ziyong was holding a tea tray and looked helplessly at the two immortals, thinking that if Chang Yuan came to the Hall of Eternal Life again next time, he would let Gu Yuan come over.

Said that Cao Cao Cao Cao arrived.

"Brother Ziyong, what are you thinking here?" Gu Yuan lowered his voice so that Ji Ziyong could hear him clearly, and got very close, as if he was blowing into his ear, which made goose bumps all over his body.

Ji Ziyong originally wanted to say a few words to him, but he suddenly put the tea tray into Gu Yuan's hand, and said in a commanding tone: "Go and bring the teapot, and refill some tea for the teachers."

It was too late for Gu Yuan to see this, and Ji Ziyong quietly ran out without saying this.

"It won't be long this time. They should have gone alone, but this is the first time that Mingyu's enchantment has a problem. I thought it would be good to take the two of them to see the world." Chang Yuan then went on in detail He said: "Although Ziyong and Yi'an's kung fu is indeed slightly better than other disciples, they still need to practice and practice."

Jin Yuan said: "That's fine, but you need to worry more about Ziyong's words, that child's temperament is not as calm as Yi'an, so my apprentice will entrust you."

"Where did the senior brother say?"

Gu Yuan listened quietly, and suddenly remembered to refill the tea, so he hurriedly went out and looked up at Chang Yuan.Seeing that he seemed to have something to say, Chang Yuan first asked, "Over there in the study, are you still used to listening to the lectures by Senior Brother Zi Yong?"

Gu Yuan nodded, and seeing Chang Yuan looking at him kindly, he said, "Master, can I go with you?"

When Chang Yuan heard this, he thought that Gu Yuan was quite courageous, and his kung fu was only a semi-finished product, so he wanted to go down the mountain. Although it was not particularly dangerous this time, it was still too early to take Gu Yuan with him. some.

Chang Yuan calmly said with a tone like treating a child: "Your kung fu is not mature yet, practice well here with Uncle Chang, and your brother will take you there in the future."

Gu Yuan was silent for a few seconds and nodded reluctantly. When he left the Hall of Eternal Life and was on the way back, he thought carefully. From entering the Longevity Gate to now, although he has indeed learned a lot compared to before entering the Longevity Gate, At least he has a bit of kung fu, but if he wants to compare with Jiang Yi'an and Ji Ziyong, maybe they can't even compare with a single finger.

Those two were talented, and it would take even more effort to catch up with them.Thinking about it, the image of Jiang Yi'an jumping on the water suddenly appeared in Gu Yuan's mind, and there was a rush in his heart that came out unconsciously.

Back in the Seventeenth Hall, just as he was about to open the door, he saw a faint red light from the window next door to Jiang Yi'an, and the candles in the room were still shaking.Gu Yuan hesitated at the same place, he thought he should go to find Jiang Yi'an.Gu Yuan walked over from the front hall, walked all the way to Jiang Yi'an's door and knocked lightly on the door: "Brother, can I come in?"

Jiang Yi'an opened the door, and Gu Yuan caught a glimpse of the packed luggage behind him.

"Brother, are you leaving tomorrow morning?" Gu Yuan asked.

"You didn't ask where we were going? And how did you know I was leaving?" Jiang Yi'an leaned over and whispered.

In Jiang Yi'an's eyes, Gu Yuan is like Zuo Jing and You Jing, a young man who is curious about everything and keeps his innocence.

Gu Yuan raised his head and the eyes of the two unconsciously collided with each other. Gu Yuan swallowed, and stammered, "In the evening... I was in the Hall of Eternal Life... listening to my uncle and master."

Jiang Yi'an nodded his head and turned around, turning his back to Gu Yuan and naturally twirled the corner of his clothes. At this time, the red candlelight reflected Jiang Yi'an's body line clearly, with broad shoulders and narrow waist, slender but not thin.Gu Yuan stood behind him and watched intently: "Can I... Can I go with my brother?"

"What did Master say?"

"Master said that my cultivation level is not high enough, and now... I can't go now." Gu Yuan hesitated, Jiang Yi'an turned his head to see him with his head slightly lowered, one hand pulled him over, the other Touching the top of his head with his hand, he said, "You are not hot enough."

When Gu Yuan heard this, he raised his head, his eyes sparkled.

"You haven't started the fire yet."

Gu Yuan: ...

The light in Gu Yuan's eyes went out in an instant.

As soon as Jiang Yi'an said that, he suddenly felt that what he said was too harsh, maybe it hurt Gu Yuan a little.As soon as he changed his mind, he pulled Gu Yuan to the table, pushed away a pile of luggage on the table, pressed his shoulders to make him sit down and said, "Gu Yuan, I know it's not easy for you to come to the Longevity Gate, but you You know, when you arrive at the Longevity Gate, although you have learned some things on weekdays, if something unexpected happens one day, your ability can save yourself. The greater the ability, the greater the chance of getting yourself out of danger. This time, Ji Ziyong and I went down the mountain with Master. To put it bluntly, if you go together, it’s okay if you don’t get hurt, but if you get hurt, it will become a burden for us, so you have to remember to protect yourself and protect yourself. It’s also about protecting others.”

Jiang Yi'an pretended to look at Gu Yuan silently with a scheming face, and thought to himself: Sure enough, speaking in an adult's tone is effective.

"Brother, are you caring about me?" Gu Yuan asked.

When Jiang Yi'an heard that Gu Yuan was really too naive: "I'm educating you, listen to me carefully, I'm your senior brother."

"Who taught me to practice the exercises during the time you left?"

Only then did Jiang Yi'an remember that the most critical and difficult problem had arisen.

It's not easy for Fang Xiaotang not to take him to eat, drink and play every day, so don't mention things on the level of kung fu; the left scene and the right scene are also two halves, if you really take the exam, you may not be as good as Gu Yuan, and Jin Yuan ——One month, maybe ten days in the Palace of Eternal Life, and the remaining two-thirds of the time is spent traveling around outside.

Jiang Yi'an thought for a while and patted Gu Yuan's shoulder and said, "You practice by yourself. If you have any questions, you can ask him. If you are not... you can find a way by yourself."

Gu Yuan:? ? ?

"Don't be lazy. I'll do an inspection when I come back. If I'm not satisfied, you can go to the Hall of Eternal Life and call Ji Ziyong a senior brother."

Gu Yuan: The 15-year-old innocent and happy life is once again facing serious threats.Just now he felt that Jiang Yi'an was perfunctory him, but he didn't say it out, and he didn't want to ask such a question that seemed to be deliberately angry, so he changed the way of asking: "Brother, did you really care about me just now?"

When Jiang Yi'an heard this, he wanted to say: You have a really thick skin, you bastard.But thinking of the blow he had given to this young man's cultivation career just now, he still couldn't bear it, so what he said was: "Yes, yes, yes, I am your senior brother, so of course I care about you."

Gu Yuan laughed when he heard that.With this smile, Jiang Yi'an's heart suddenly became hot, and he felt that this young boy was innocent and cute, but only a little cute, not very cute. Even if Jiang Yi'an had such thoughts, according to his temperament, he would not change his behavior at all. , it will not affect his urge to slap Gu Yuan.

At this time, he kept reflecting on himself in his heart: Could it be the same when he was 15 years old?

"Brother, thank you." Gu Yuan smiled again.

Jiang Yi'an patted him on the shoulder, Gu Yuan looked at the candlelight all around, and Jiang Yi'an's light-colored clothes, feeling gentle everywhere.

The next morning before dawn, Gu Yuan watched Jiang Yi'an walk away from the Seventeenth Corridor with the whiteness that had just appeared on his head, until the curtain on the promenade was gently blown by the wind, and he couldn't touch anything. Only then slowly leaned back on the bed.

Jiang Yi'an's phrase "Of course I care about you" kept repeating in Gu Yuan's mind.Like a faintly chiming ancient clock, it has been lingering in Gu Yuan's heart.

Outside the Gate of Longevity, Jiang Yi'an stepped on his horse and looked back at the Seventeenth Palace in the distance.Ji Ziyong touched the horse's head and pulled the rein tight: "What are you looking at?"

"It's nothing, I said a few words to Gu Yuan before leaving last night."

Ji Ziyong got on his horse, turned the horse's head and leaned close to Jiang Yi'an and said quietly, "Oh, I'm going to teach people a lesson."

Jiang Yi'an sneered and said, "I'm sorry, I never teach others a lesson."

Ji Ziyong blew out a breath of cold air from his nose with disdain: "Oh yes, then the person you taught may not be human."

Last time in the study, Ji Ziyong asked his disciples to recite the heart formula recently mentioned in the book together, and just when it was Gu Yuan's turn, Jiang Yi'an came in.

"The sky is yin and the earth is yang, the static and the moving are the same, Fu Tianming will move after that, start...start..." Gu Yuan saw Jiang Yi'an leaning against a pillar behind him.

"What?" Jiang Yi'an looked at him with a slight smile.

"Qi Di Li... No, Qi Di..." Gu Yuan became nervous.

Ji Ziyong saw that Jiang Yi'an had no intention of leaving, so he walked over and whispered: "What are you doing, he just memorized it well, you see you scared him, go away quickly."

Jiang Yi'an stood up straight: "After studying for so long, I haven't even memorized this thing well. Ask me to memorize it tonight. If you don't memorize it well, you won't be allowed to sleep."

Gu Yuan pursed his lips and nodded, the surrounding disciples watched and began to whisper, some said: "Brother Jiang is too strict..." Some patted their chests and said: "It's a good thing he asked me to carry my back last time. I didn't recite it wrong...", and some even said: "I found that Senior Brother Ji is quite gentle..."

Recalling this time, Ji Ziyong felt that Jiang Yi'an sometimes really likes to catch people's pigtails and not let them go. No wonder most of the courses of Changshengmen are taught by himself, and it is because his temperament is more approachable.

Seeing the complacency on his face, Jiang Yi'an smiled silently and shrugged.The two walked side by side slowly to the door.

"Why do you need to ride a horse? It saves effort by flying." Ji Ziyong asked quietly.

Jiang Yi'an looked at Chang Yuan who was standing next to the horse in the distance, and leaned over with the corner of his mouth curled up, and said, "Do as the Romans do."

Stepping out of the "Longevity Gate" means leaving the boundary of the Longevity Gate. It was early morning at this time, and the surrounding fog had not completely dissipated.The three of them shuttled through the mist, and behind them a white jade pillar engraved with the words "Longevity Gate" gradually became smaller and smaller, and finally disappeared into the mist.

In the morning, Gu Yuan returned to the Seventeenth Hall from Zangshu Pavilion, passed by Jiang Yi'an's bedroom and found that the door was not closed. A sword——this is the first sword he used to practice after entering the Longevity Gate.He went in, pulled out the scabbard, and found that the edge of the sword had been polished and shiny, and the hilt and sheath had been wiped clean.

Gu Yuan saw his own eyes through the edge of the sword, and called softly: "Senior brother."
