Chapter 3 The Young Master and the Book Boy

His name was Lu Ang in the past, and he was also called Lu Ang after time travel.

However, when he discovered that "real name: Lu Ang" was displayed on the system panel instead of "name: Lu Ang", Lu Ang was cautious. Just in case, relying on his favor, Lu Ang begged his father to change his name. Lu Ang (ang) was changed to Lu Pleiades (mao). From then on, he was always called Lu Pleiades (mao) by others.

It's very similar, but different, with an extra "丿". You can't be too careful with things like your real name, especially when you later learn that this is a world of immortal cultivation. Who knows what insidious methods there are about real names?
Although he didn't know who this young monk was and why Manager Liu was looking for him, looking at the nodding and bowing attitude of Supervisor Zhao, he knew that he couldn't disobey and hiding could only last for a while, so Lu Ang had to take the initiative to stand up.

"I am, sir..."

Before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by the young monk: "Stop talking nonsense, just follow me!"

Seeing the half-eaten meal, Lu Ang had no choice but to leave the table and take two steps. Still unwilling to give in, he turned back, picked up the half watermelon and a wooden spoon, and then followed the young monk out of the cafeteria.

The young monk frowned, and there was a hint of coldness on his face, but without saying anything, he walked ahead and left the cafeteria.

Walking all the way out of the living area, he turned left and right again and climbed over a ridge. After eating all the watermelons, he finally came to the foot of another hill and in front of a beautiful manor built on the mountain.

There is a plaque on the door frame: Xishan Farewell.

Lu Ang carefully looked at the architectural style here. It was carefully crafted and the landscape was harmonious. It seemed that skilled craftsmen had been hired and a lot of thought had been put into it. It was completely different from the crooked wooden houses in the mining slave living area.

Is this the residence of a steward who is higher than the overseer?

Supervisors are all in the late stage of Qi refining, so don’t stewards need to build the foundation?What would such a big shot do with a loser like himself who has never even reached the first level of Qi refining?

Could it be that when he obtained the "Iron Body Skill" in the mine, someone saw him and made a report?
It can't be so miserable, right?I've looked around, and there shouldn't be anyone there.Could it be that there are surveillance methods in the entire mine that I don't know about?Some kind of surveillance array or something?
Lu Ang couldn't help but tighten the bag around his waist that held the raw spiritual stones and jade slips.

Forget it, there is no way to avoid the disaster. At worst, I can just present the "Iron Body Kung Fu" and say it is passed down from my ancestors. Anyway, the technique has been memorized.

After thinking about it all the way, Lu Ang was brought into the manor and came to a hall.

"Waiting in the side hall, I'll call you when I'm free!" The young monk pointed casually, walked into a corridor without looking back, and disappeared.

This side hall was quite large, with tables, chairs, and tea sets on the table, but no one could be seen. Lu Ang did not dare to wander around, so he sat directly on the floor and began to move the spiritual energy and practice "Naling Gong".

After carrying it for two whole weeks, nearly an hour passed, but still no one came to call.

Worried and anxious, he lost his mind to practice. After waiting for a while, the young monk reappeared and said as concisely as ever: "Follow me!"

After another round of twists and turns, he walked through a pavilion and waterside pavilion, and met several beautiful maids carrying plates of leftover food. Finally, Lu Ang was brought to a three-story building.

"Master, we have brought them." The young monk clasped his fists.

"Come in." A voice came from the second floor.

When I went up to the second floor, the first thing I saw was a middle-aged monk in a month-long white Taoist robe, wearing a Taoist crown, and a fairy-like Taoist bone. His whole body was filled with pure spiritual energy, and there was a slight pressure.

There is no doubt that this is a master of foundation building!
Lu Ang quickly leaned over to salute: "Lu Subaru pays his respects to Manager Liu, I don't know..."

"I don't want to see you." Manager Liu interrupted Lu Ang's inquiry and pointed to the side: "It's your old friend who wants to see you."

Lu Ang raised his head and saw a young man and woman sitting next to him enjoying tea.

The woman is in her mid-twenties, wearing a long red dress and a pretty face. She has the air of a arrogant young lady.

The man also wore a red robe, carried a long sword on his back, had a tall and straight posture, and a handsome face. He looked like a handsome young man.

……

Lu Qingfeng did not speak immediately, but carefully looked at his former master in front of him.

Seeing that his face did not have the dejection or despair that I originally thought, it was just like the three years he taught me, the three years he traveled around the world, and the six years he had always been calm and calm, as if he was detached and didn't care about anything. superior.

This young master is good at everything, but it's this expression, this temperament, this feeling of being superior to everyone else that makes people particularly annoying!

Unfortunately, things are different now!I am the one with middle-grade spiritual roots!He is the one with inferior spiritual roots!It’s me who should be aloof and aloof!

Maybe... he still doesn't know what kind of natural chasm separates these two levels, right?

Thinking of this, the anger in Lu Qingfeng's heart dissipated a lot. He clasped his fists slightly and said hello: "Master, long time no see."

"Well, it's been a long time indeed." Lu Ang did not see the little thoughts of this former book boy, but his tone was full of emotion.

Fate is so unfair. The two of them participated in the Immortal Ascension Conference together. The young master himself had a low-grade spiritual root and became a slave in the mines, but the book boy had a medium-grade spiritual root. He skipped the handyman disciple and was directly promoted to the Liuhe Sect. Door.

"How are you doing here, young master?" Lu Qingfeng decided to be polite first.

"It's not bad." Lu Ang said honestly: "It's good to eat well, wear warm clothes, and not be tired from work."

"That's good." Lu Qingfeng seemed to let go of something, and then said the purpose of his trip: "That's it, now we have all become immortals after all. There are differences between immortals and mortals, the rules of the mortal world, and the relationships in the mortal world. , no matter what, I can’t control the immortal, so I want to restore my surname..."

"Does that mean terminating the master-servant relationship?" Lu Ang laughed. He just found out about his golden finger. What does this mean? He immediately expressed his position: "What does this mean? In fact, I have never regarded you as a servant. Your original surname seems to be Li, right? Do you want to change that name back? Your original name seems to be Li Gou..." "No need for that!" Li Qingfeng immediately interrupted Lu Ang and changed the subject: "I know. If the master hadn't bought me back then, I would have starved to death a long time ago. Master, you treated me well on weekdays and taught me reading, martial arts, chess, calligraphy and painting. I'm here to repay your kindness!"

As he spoke, he stretched out his hand, and a porcelain bottle suddenly appeared in his hand: "This is a bottle of grass elixir, which is an elixir for increasing spiritual power. It is difficult to exchange for a piece of money in the mortal world. Here is A total of 24! It should be enough to repay the Lu family for so many years of kindness."

Grass elixir!
Lu Ang had heard of this name. According to a fellow mine slave who slept with him, it was a reward for production activists in the mine. Only the ten slaves who turned in the most raw spiritual stones in each mining area every month were eligible to receive one. It is an excellent elixir to assist cultivation and increase spiritual power!
It's a pity that other mining slaves with spiritual roots cannot ask for this kind of elixir, because over the years, the representatives of the top ten outstanding mining slaves with monthly output, without exception, are all soil spiritual roots who have been mining for many years.

"I know that both the master and his wife are kind people, and you treat me very well, young master..." Lu Qingfeng said with sincerity, "but I can't live in the sect as a book boy or a servant..."

He pointed at the girl next to him: "This is Senior Sister He from Huoyun Peak. She has been taking good care of me since I entered the school. The elders of their family are also very optimistic about me. They have agreed that as long as I advance to the inner sect, we will marry."

He continued to explain: "The He family of Huoyun Peak is a Jindan family and has a high status in the sect. I can't let others laugh at me and say that a young lady from the He family married a book boy. I hope the young master can understand."

"I understand, I completely understand." Lu Ang said, feeling that it was okay and as it should be.

"It's good that the young master understands." Li Qingfeng looked relieved: "But just in case, I still hope that the young master will not come to me again after the 20 years in the mine. It is best to go elsewhere. Seeking opportunities..."

"That's it... that's okay!" Lu Ang agreed. He had the lottery panel with him, so he couldn't afford to go find this former book boy and embarrass him.

"Young master, just agree." Li Qingfeng nodded: "I have been with you for almost six years, young master. After you have worked in the mine for three years, you can exchange it for learning one technique. I will double the amount here and compensate you for four techniques." Law."

Then, he bowed his head to Manager Liu and said, "I'm sorry to trouble Uncle Liu."

"That's easy!" Manager Liu raised his hand, and a scroll appeared in his hand: "All the spells that can be exchanged are here. You can choose four."

After saying that, with a slight toss, the scroll flew lightly into Lu Ang's hands.

"Thank you then, and thank you Manager Liu." Lu Ang has always been very polite when facing interests.

This kid Qingfeng is still very good at life. It seems that all my years of teaching have been in vain. He is well-mannered, handsome, and talented. No wonder some senior sisters are against him.

However, I am still a little envious...

While thinking about it, Lu Ang opened the scroll and began to select spells.

The five elements of metal, wood, water, fire, and earth, plus general, five spells for each category.

There is no need to look at anything else. Lu Ang looks directly at the water, wood, and communication elements.
