Ning Chen

Ning, master wants to officially accept you as the third generation disciple of my Qianyan Sect tomorrow. "

Xie Zhanning tilted his head and asked, "Personal disciple?"

Since the founding of the Qianyan Sect, Gu Lichen has never accepted a single apprentice, and neither Gu Zhi nor the second disciple Gu Lichen were personally taught by Shi Shuliu. Only Elder Zhaohua from Zhaohua Palace passed it on personally.

There is a legend in the Qianyan School that the former suzerain Shi Shuliu jumped out from the cracks in the rocks in this half-smoke valley. Zhi and his second disciple, Gu Lichen, both followed him before the founding of the sect, but they both called him foster father, and only the third disciple, Fu Zhaohua, was handed down by Shi Shuliu, who could call him master.

16. Personal Disciple

"Is he your apprentice?"

500 years ago, Half-Smoke Valley was not called Half-Smoke Valley. It was just a desolate mountain depression outside Tianshui Town. There was a spirit stone in the mountain, where the essence of the sun and the moon was cultivated. inseparable.

"Little Stone, I've been in shape for so long, when will you be able to turn into a human form..." The person who spoke was a boy who looked about seventeen or eighteen years old. He was wearing a smoky pink brocade robe with a hairpin This magnolia flower is not too tall, and it can even be said to be slightly smaller than her peers. She has deep eyes, high nose, bright lips and white teeth. Although her face is not so sharp, it looks a little more playful.

"Little Shitou, Dr. Gu from Jishitang is really amazing. He taught me how to see, hear, ask, understand medicine and medicine, and there are many things I don't know..." The pink-clothed boy said to the strange stone in the valley .

The young man talking here is a magnolia flower that grew beside the strange stone. Because it opened up before the strange stone, he cultivated a human shape early, "Little stone, do you know that the magnolia flower has many, many effects, it It can dispel wind and disperse, and it can also relax meridian and activate collaterals..."

As an innate fairy herb and elixir, Xin Yi Hua always dreamed of becoming a Xinglin master who could save the world and people after he cultivated a human form before he took shape. In the daytime, he learns medical skills from Jing, the consultant of Jishitang in Tianshui Town, and in the evening he returns to the mountains to practice with Xiaoshitou.

Because he is a magnolia flower, and it grows next to the strange stone, he named himself Shi Xinyi, and every night when Shi Xinyi came back from Jishitang, he would chatter to the little stone next to him about all kinds of new things in the outside world. Interesting things, such as what medical principles he has learned today, what strange diseases he has cured, and what beautiful scenery he has seen, day after day, year after year, he never tires of it.

Although the little stone can't take shape yet, it has already opened up its spiritual wisdom. It can hear all kinds of stories that Shi Xinyi told him every day, and it never gets bored.

"Little Shitou, a few foreigners from other races came to Jishi Hall today. They have strange diseases that even Doctor Gu can't cure."

"Little Shitou, Doctor Gu can't save them, and I can't save them either. It's useless for me to be a fairy grass. I'm really useless."

"Little Shitou, today I... finally... successfully saved a person..."

"I...I cured them...all, am I very powerful..."

"...Little Shitou, I'm so tired, so tired."

One night, Shi Xinyi came back exhausted, fell asleep and never woke up again. Later, he turned into a magnolia flower without consciousness and lifeless.

"Xinyi." When Shi Xinyi turned back into a flower, it happened to be the time when the little stone turned into a human form. The two had been together for thousands of years, but by accident, they never saw each other.

One day, a stranger came to Jishi Hall. He was wearing a light mist-colored brocade robe and a black jade hairpin on his head. Form follows color.

The man said, "Excuse me, is your advisor Dr. Jing Gu?"

Advisor Jing said: "No, that's right, I dare to ask your Excellency..."

The man bowed, "I'm Shi Shuliu, Shi Xinyi's...elder brother."

Consultant Jing replied: "It turned out to be Xin Yi's elder brother. It's a pleasure to meet you, but Brother Shi, why didn't Xin Yi come here today?"

Shi Shuliu was stunned for a moment, and the corner of his mouth tugged slightly, "Xin Yi...won't come here again..."

Consultant Jing wondered, "Why?"

Shi Shuliu's eyes were dim, and his face was bloodless, "He has gone to a very far place, and will not return to Tianshui Town for the time being..."

Consultant Jing nodded and said: "So that's the case. I want to ask Xin Yi how he cured those foreigners in the next book."

This person who claimed to be Shi Xinyi's elder brother was the strange stone next to the magnolia flower. He heard Shi Xinyi tell him about Jishitang all day long, and came to Jishitang in a hurry to inquire about the news as soon as he transformed.

Sure enough, from Advisor Jing, he learned that those foreigners came from Miaojiang. When they came here, their bodies and faces were covered with black cloths. Shi Xinyi's condition became more and more weird, so that no matter what prescription he used later, Shi Xinyi couldn't cure them. What's strange is that Shi Xinyi didn't know how to cure them all of them.

Hearing this point, Shi Shuliu had already guessed all kinds of things, but he was unwilling to admit it. He was not reconciled to the magnolia flower abandoning himself in order to save irrelevant people. Xin Yi looked at himself, at his little rock.

Later, Shi Shuliu took care of the magnolia flowers that no longer had spiritual consciousness in his heart, and left the sad place of Tianshui Town.

Two years later, when Shi Shuliu returned to Tianshui Town again, more and more people in the town got the strange disease. Even the consultant Jing died of overwork in this sudden disease. Shi Shuliu went to see the consultant Jing for the last time, and before leaving, there was a little girl named Gu Zhi by his side.

Half Smoke Valley, Thousand Rock Sect.

Early in the morning, Shuliu Pavilion was crowded with bustling crowds. Young disciples rushed over to join in the fun when they heard that Daizong would hold an apprentice acceptance ceremony today. They want to see who is the god who can enter the eyes of Zhenjun Lichen.

Standing outside Shuliu Pavilion, Gu Lichen bowed respectfully, then turned around to face the disciples of Qianyan Sect, and announced loudly: "My lord, from today onwards, Xie Zhanning is my personal disciple."

"...Xie Zhanning..."

"So his name is Xie Zhanning."

"I don't see anything special about it."

"..."

In the crowd, you and I exploded with each other, and the noise was endless.

Xie Zhanning stood alone in front of the crowd, knelt down and kowtowed heavily to Gu Lichen three times, "Master, please accept my disciple's bow."

"Zhanning, the master is not in the sect for the time being, so you can pay respects to the master at Shuliu Pavilion."

As soon as Gu Lichen finished speaking, Xie Zhanning kowtowed heavily to Shuliu Pavilion three times.

"Is he your apprentice?" A man with black hair and black hair came in response. He had sword eyebrows and star eyes, a high nose and thin lips, and he was very handsome.

The disciples of the Qianyan Sect gave way to the man in unison, bowed and saluted: "See Elder Zhaohua."

Seeing the person coming, Gu Lichen said softly, "Junior Brother, why are you here?"

Fu Zhaohua glanced at Xie Zhanning and said, "Let me come and see your new apprentice, brother."

Gu Lichen looked at Xie Zhanning and said, "Zhanning, this is your Uncle Zhaohua."

"Hello, Master Zhaohua." Xie Zhanning called obediently.

Fu Zhaohua nodded, "Well, good boy."

Afterwards, Gu Lichen and Fu Zhaohua stood in a stalemate outside Shuliu Pavilion for a long time. Everyone saw it and did not dare to move. Fu Zhaohua suddenly changed his face and said with a playful smile: "The little guy is so cute!" , Come here and let the uncle take a good look."

"..." Gu Lichen pursed his lips into a smile, and nodded towards Xie Zhanning.

Fu Zhaohua's current expression was completely opposite to the stern look he had when he came over just now. As soon as Xie Zhanning walked over, Fu Zhaohua immediately rubbed Xie Zhanning's head with his hands.

Xie Zhanning frowned, seemingly displeased, Gu Lichen said: "Okay, Junior Brother, don't scare him."

"Cough, it's all gone, it's gone, why should I go..." Fu Zhaohua suddenly remembered that there were still a group of disciples and grandchildren surrounding them, coughed lightly, and sent everyone away.

Fu Zhaohua straightened his face, and said solemnly: "Senior brother, Master and his old man..."

Gu Lichen's eyelids twitched, and he said, "I'll talk to you in detail in a few days."

After the apprentice acceptance ceremony, Gu Lichen took Xie Zhanning back to his Heguangyuan. Because Xie Zhanning was different from ordinary outer disciples, Gu Lichen did not arrange him to the ordinary residence of outer disciples.

Gu Lichen said: "Zhanning, from now on you will live in Wakoin together with your teacher."

Xie Zhanning was startled, "Master..."

Heguangyuan is not big, but although the sparrow is small, it has all the five internal organs. There should be a lot of squares, wing rooms, and kitchens. It is more than enough for two people. Next to Gu Lichen's main room.

Suddenly, Gu Lichen conjured up a crystal-clear jade fan out of thin air, "This is my teacher's gift to you."

Xie Zhanning took the jade fan and murmured, "Fan?"

Gu Lichen shook his head, "This is not an ordinary fan. This fan is called Qianji Fan. It was forged by Gu Zhi, the number one disciple of Qianyan Sect. , retreat in all directions."

"Gu Zhi... her surname is also Gu..." Xie Zhanning murmured in a low voice, remembering that day when Gu Zhi
