……

【Option [-]】

[Transform back into a fox and hide in the package, and be taken there]

……

Zheng Zhuo's eyes were sharp, seeing that the monk who was about to return to the sect had left his luggage unclosed, his mind moved.

He dodged and hid behind the alley.After a while, a white fox with a silver collar around its neck jumped out.

Seeing that the monk had already lifted his sword and took off, it jumped forward and jumped into the monk's burden.

"Ah! A dog jumped in!"

A child on the side saw it and pointed at it and yelled.

But the sound failed to reach the monk.He turned into a blue light and went up the mountain.

……

The wind howled, and the tip of Zheng Zhuo's tail was cold.

"(What is Yujian flying...it's not as good as [Shenxing Hundred Miles]...I'm so cold.)"

He flew in mid-air, picking up the furoshiki with his teeth.

It hasn't been long since the young monk learned how to fly with a sword, and he is still not proficient in flying.He looked forward nervously, so absorbed that he didn't notice the movement behind him.

Zheng Zhuo fiddled with it for a long time, and tied the burden from the inside.

It's finally not cold anymore.

But not because he managed to close the bundle.

It was because Xiyunzong had arrived.

Zheng Zhuo felt that the young monk was slowly descending in the burden, and the wind brought a little warmth.

But he didn't intend to come out.

"(Let's hide for a while.)"

Slowly, there were voices around.Zheng Zhuo heard the young monk talking with the monk guarding the mountain gate.

"... something happened in Xiyun Town. I just came back from there, and some children got mad for some reason..."

"...Yes, probably at the stage of Qi training to foundation establishment..."

"I don't know, I've never heard of this before."

"The last time I went to inspect and didn't..."

"Let's call some more people." Finally, the young monk said.

"No one can go."

However, the cultivator guarding the mountain gate also vomited bitterness.

"It's not that you don't know, this batch of newly recruited monks is too worrying! Some of them fought privately because they refused to accept the assignment of master and apprentice. The one who originally planned to enter the first sect...you know, it is The young master from the Lin family was besieged and beaten by several people, but he had never been beaten. Hey, these children from the big family of cultivating immortals, with high spirits, forcibly ran away with their swords. How can this cultivation level know how to control a sword? In the Hundred Thousand Mountains, many people have gone to look for him!"

"Eh……"

The young monk made a sound like his teeth were being sour.

"How many people have gone to Xiyun Town? I think it's enough, you go back first."

"Ah, but... there is no newcomer to meet me, and I will be scolded by my brother again..."

"No, no, no. It's so busy, who has time to care if someone comes or not?"

The monk guarding the mountain gate said impatiently.

"Be quick. If you have nothing to do when you go back, go around to the back mountain to move the spirit bamboo. The few new monks who fought privately were punished to chop the spirit bamboo. They chopped a lot and put them all in there."

"Eh……"

It seems that this young monk is a life to be ordered.Hearing his tone, Zheng Zhuoguang could have guessed that there must be a bitter look on his face.

"Hey what? Come on, let's go."

Zheng Zhuo lightened his body.He took off again.

This time the flight was not far away.After a while, it fell to the ground again.

The new place is quieter.Without the occasional sound of coming and going from the mountain gate, Zheng Zhuo could hear the wind and birdsong.

"That's a lot..."

He heard another grunt.A rustle followed.

The burden shakes up and down.

"(Could it be moving the spirit bamboo?)"

Zheng Zhuo poked a small hole in the knot of the burden with his nose.He put his eyes on the small hole and looked out.

In front of you is the wall of the bamboo structure shed.

The burden moved up and down again.The young monk turned around, and the wall in front of Zheng Zhuo turned into a pile of bamboo lying on the ground.

"Hey."

The monk lifted a large bundle of spiritual bamboos.Those bamboo leaves danced up and down.

Almost covering the sides of his body.

"(Looks like this is the back mountain.)"

Zheng Zhuo pressed down with his chin, and the burden opened.

He jumped out, landed on the ground, jumped three times and twice, and disappeared behind the bamboo pile.

"Huh? There is a sound?"

By the time the young monk waved a large pile of bamboo with great difficulty and turned around, he had long since disappeared.

……

Zheng Zhuo walked through the tall bamboo forest.After all, this is someone else's territory, so he didn't dare to use [Shenxing Hundred Miles], he just kicked with his short legs.

"(The terrain is a bit flat.)"

Finally entered the Zongmen.He was still a little worried.

After all, if the guarantee is not complete, a high-ranking monk will suddenly appear from nowhere and take him back as a pet.

However, after walking for a while, what Zheng Zhuo was worried about did not happen.

Instead, he saw a young man first.

This is a boy about twelve or thirteen years old, frowning at the moment, chopping bamboo with an axe.

"([Identification].)"

A light flashed in Zheng Zhuo's eyes.

……

【Name: Zhou Dong】

【Race: Human】

[Tendons: wood and fire dual veins are ordinary]

[Acquisition: Xiaotai Shangxuan Sutra to practice Qi Xiaocheng]

[Supernatural power: none]

[Magic weapon: none]

……

Only those who have achieved a small success in Qi training are not very old.

Looking at it like this, I'm afraid he is one of the monks who "disobeyed the assignment of master and apprentice and fought in private" as the gatekeeper monk said.

Zheng Zhuo thought for a while, and approached him wagging his tail.

Hundred steps.

"..."

Ten steps.

"..."

Five steps.

"!"

The boy named Zhou Dong suddenly turned his head.

Seeing a streak of white behind him, he jumped back in fright, raising his ax in a vigilant posture.

Can not be done.Response is really slow.Zheng Zhuo sighed in his heart.

Neither is judgment.What is the use of vigilance?With such a gap in strength, anyone who does not escape will be disqualified.

He didn't really sigh.Because he held the "Concentration Art" in his mouth.

"White...fox...?"

Zhou Dong looked warily at Zheng Zhuo who suddenly appeared in front of him.

"There is such a fox in Xiyunzong? I've never heard of it... with a book in its mouth..."

He is wary.

Then Zheng Zhuo opened his mouth and put the book on the ground.

"Why can only those who are related can enter the first door? Obviously, I am not much inferior to him..."

"!?"

Zhou Dong's face froze when the fox talked about the central matter.

too obvious.

Zheng Zhuo thought.

However, he can't pick students right now.

"A talking fox...a monster?"

Zhou Dong asked stiffly.

"You impolite boy, you actually compare me with a monster."

Seeing that he was bluffing people, Zheng Zhuo began to play tricks.

"Cultivating immortals is to move upward. I think you have an upward heart, and you are different from others. You are here alone."

He flicks his tail.

"Lend you the secret "Concentration Art". After three hours, I will take it back. Remember, it must not be seen by others."

Zheng Zhuo left the book in place.

"This is... this is the legendary chance... Unexpectedly, after joining the sect...!"

Zhou Dong's hands trembled slightly from excitement.

"I, I will definitely study hard! I won't leave even half a step!"

He said loudly, immediately opened the pages of the book, and began to recite silently.After a while, as if thinking of something, I quickly went to the shed to get the pen and paper used to register the bamboo, and copied it.

"(The response is qualified.)"

Zheng Zhuo looked at him, thinking with satisfaction.

Next...
