She is Jianxiu

Chapter 264 Two hundred sixty-three Baptism
When Zhao Chun said this, his body stood upright like a green pine, with a kind of arrogance that was hard to be seen from Sanxiu, unyielding.

The priest put aside his doubts, and recalled that in the Holy Land, there is indeed a great lack of cultivators who are equipped with the art of refining, and the person in front of him is from the sect of the Three States, and the art of refining is orthodox inheritance. Cultivation is very different, and I also weighed it in my heart. After a little meditation, I said:
"That being the case, the Holy Land will be your home from now on. After baptizing you in front of all peoples on a certain day, you will be given an emblem and assigned to the mansion. The waiter who guides you will tell you about other matters. I will not leave today Talk too much."

There was a little satisfaction in his eyes for being able to get a refiner with a condensed cultivation base, and he turned his attention to Pu Yue, rubbed his fingertips against the spine of the book, and said after a long time: "I have never restricted You go out and play, but people outside are complicated, with various forces intertwined and flowing, coming and going, a little kid like you probably doesn't know how he died."

Pu Yue pressed her lips tightly, knowing that the priest's words were right, if it hadn't happened to be rescued by Zhao Chun, she would have been plundered by the gangsters and gone to the island, and there is no possibility of returning to the Holy Land.

But in these years, she has lived a reckless life. The elders and brothers and sisters around her love her very much, and because she showed her talent in alchemy early on, she has been placed high expectations by the priests since the beginning of Qi training, and she is often taken by her side to guide and raise her. He couldn't hear such serious words, so now his eyes are red, and there are two crystal spots on the corners of his eyes.

"Forget it, just come back." As if he couldn't see her acting like this, the priest waved his hand together with the scroll in his hand and sighed, "If you want to go out in the future, you have to tell me first, I will arrange someone Go with you, at least keep you safe."

"Thank you, sir!" Pu Yue burst into tears and smiled, and suddenly remembered the ever-burning lamp that was broken by the deserted people in the sea of ​​sand, so he suppressed his smile and said, "My lord, I also took an ever-burning lamp from the Holy Land during this trip , but met the Desolate race on the way...then the ever-burning lamp was broken in the sea of ​​sand."

If people in the holy land want to go out, they must use the everlasting lamp to guide the way, otherwise they will be in danger of life. Therefore, when they first heard about Pu Yue's departure, the priest knew that she had taken an everlasting lamp. Not much surprise either.

It's just that when Pu Yue mentioned that the lamp was broken in the sea of ​​sand, the corners of his mouth drooped slightly, and his face suddenly became solemn, which showed that he was quite distressed.

It should be noted that the eternal lamp can only burn for 300 years. Once lit, even if it is extinguished again, the candle oil will gradually melt away with the years. Therefore, there are only twelve lamps left in the Holy Land, each of which is very precious .

"Although the destruction of the lamp was not your intention, it was also caused by you. If I insist on protecting you, I'm afraid that the Holy Land will complain." He glanced coldly at Pu Yue, pursed his lips and said, "You Then stay in the mansion first, and wait for me to discuss with the elders to see how to deal with this matter."

Pu Yue, who grew up here, naturally understands how precious the ever-burning lamp is. At this time, she doesn't dare to make the appearance of being aggrieved as before. She just buried her head deeply and didn't say a word.

Standing beside her, Zhao Chun saw the demeanor and behavior of the two of them. Sometimes he felt natural, and sometimes he felt weird.

This weirdness is not in Pu Yue, her attitude towards the priest is admiration and awe that anyone with a discerning eye can see, it's just that there is more than enough reverence but not enough intimacy.

As for the priest, he was quite tolerant and caring towards Pu Yue in his words. It can be seen that he attached great importance to her, but when his eyes fell on him, he did not have the love and concern of the elders for the younger generation, leaving only indifference and indifference. Such emotions are contrary to each other, making the priest show some moodiness for no reason, which is quite different from the benevolent and fraternal attitude when talking with Zhao Chun.

She asked, "My lord, I came here with Pu Yue from the sea of ​​sand. On the way, she told me that the people in the Holy Land can distinguish between the wind and sand and not be harmed by the desolate people because of the ever-burning lamp. But when the lamp shattered, it was just There are also the iron hooves of the Desolate race stalking the surroundings, but after seeing the two of us, he didn't make a move, so I dare to ask my lord, what is the reason for this?"

In response to Zhao Chun's question, the priest was silent for a long time. He raised his eyes indifferently and spit out a sentence: "When the lamp is broken, the lamp oil will not melt immediately. The reason why the ever-burning lamp avoids harm to the desolate people is because of its breath. The two of you were tainted by the smell of lamp oil, so you were lucky enough to escape." He took up the scroll again, obviously not wanting to answer any more.

But Zhao Chun was clear in his heart, that day the spear pierced the lamp straight into the deep sea of ​​sand, there was only the stench of camel blood splattered on the spot, and there was no fragrance of lamp oil, how could it be this reason that made the desolate people avoid it ?

The priest didn't want to answer, and she couldn't ask any more questions. After paying her respects and leaving, she left the peach grove with Pu Yue who was full of disappointment.

……

Since that day, she has never seen Pu Yue again.

Before the baptism, Zhao Chun was not considered a member of the Holy Land. After a woman without a badge on her shoulder led her to live in a quiet place, it was two days before someone knocked on the door, saying that the baptism was ready, but Immediately go to the tower in the lake.

By the time Zhao Chun came in the air, the holy place was empty of thousands of people, all monks or mortals who came to watch today's baptism.

In addition to the priest wearing a white crown and standing with his hands behind his back, there are thirteen Fenxuan monks lined up on both sides of the tower, all dressed in red robes, with a beast face emblem on their shoulders, and only one middle-aged beautiful woman among them has a The pattern of silver thread yellow flower and three leaves.

They should be the elders in the mouth of the priests.

The baptism is not as complicated as Zhao Chun imagined. First, the priest announces the identity of Zhao Chun to everyone, and then thirteen red-robed elders touch the top of her hair with willow branches. Last gift.

"I look forward to the benevolent words of my ancestors, and I hope that after you enter the Holy Land, you will put aside the distracting thoughts of the past, watch and help all people, and walk in one heart." He held a jade plate in his hand, and after tapping his fingertips, a ball of white light suddenly escaped from it and flew straight Enter Zhao Chun's sea of ​​knowledge.

However, Zhao Chun was extremely prepared for today's events. Seeing the white light attacking, he immediately defended against the sword energy, causing the white light to stop quickly, and gradually fell into the sword energy and stopped moving forward.

This is, a living thing? !

She couldn't help being startled, and when she took a closer look at the white light, it turned out to be an invisible bug, wriggling impatiently and moving around.

Zhao Chun watched the expression on the priest's face, and saw that he didn't notice any difference, so he secretly wrapped the bug with sword energy, brought it from the sea of ​​consciousness to the dantian, but did not kill it.

The priest made a formula in his hand, felt that the little bug was still alive, and felt a little satisfied: "The baptism is complete, and you are a citizen of the Holy Land from now on."

After the crowd dispersed, Zhao Chun felt more and more wrong, so he handed over the bug to the Golden Crow Bloodfire in his dantian to keep it alive and prevent it from harming him.

She didn't know if other people had bugs, and she couldn't ask in detail at the moment, so she followed the guiding monk silently and walked forward, stopping at a quiet and spacious mansion in the innermost part of the lake.

"Workshop." It's an extremely easy-to-understand name.
