Chong Zi - Chapter 34 : Master's Chong'er

Chongzi recognized the woman, and because he was grateful for her help yesterday, he took the initiative to ask, "You...are you here to find Master?"

Yan Zhenzhu shook her head and said nothing.

Chongzi said to himself, "I just saw that Shishu Wen again, but I don't know what her name is..."

Yan Zhenzhu replied, "He is called Wen Lingzhi. He is a direct disciple of Xianzun Min. He cultivated an immortal bone at the age of twenty-nine."

Yan Zhenzhu laughed when he heard his own words, “He, he used to be a flower of Nanhua. He was extremely talented, extremely reliable, and extremely arrogant. that he brought. Almost made Min Xianzun angry, and then it became like this."

"Why did he break his sword?" Chongzi was shocked. Anyone in Xianmen must know the importance of magic weapons, and it is even more difficult to escape the curse of magic weapons. It's a shame to break the sword with your own hands.

“Who knows, it might be…” Speaking of this, Yan Zhenzhu also felt strange, but fortunately, he never liked to make trouble, so he just snorted, “I think he is more pleasing to the eye now.”

This Yan Zhenzhu is truly a righteous person. Chongzhi thought about it. Letting go of the most important things . Everyone in Nanhua has their own story, how much they don't know, including Master...

Yan Zhenzhu looked at Xing Can in his hand, and sighed for a while, "It's really not like that. I don't know what Your Highness is thinking!"

Chongzi was sensitive, "What?"

Yan Zhenzhu dodged the question, "His Majesty treats you very well."

Chongzi whispered, "You all don't like me. I'm afraid it's not just because of this."

Yan Zhenzhu touched his head, "It's not like that. Come back quickly."

Chongzi gently tugged at his sleeve, "Zhenzhu."

Yan Zhenzhu was stunned for a moment and smiled, "Although I am one generation younger than you, I am older than you. If you want, you can call me sister in private."

Chongzi wanted to approach her, and was happy to hear the words, "Sister Zhenzhu. I'm new here, I don't know what's going on, and I don't know the rules. So I beg Little Sister to tell me."

"What you want to know?"

"None of you want to see me."

"I'm not like that,"

"I mean... Senior Brother Qin and the others."

"Qin Ke? You went to look for him?"

Chongzi hesitated, "I just... Senior Brother Qin is very powerful, isn't he? He has done great things in the world, and everyone respects him very much."

"He's really good." Yan Zhenzhu shook his head. "It's not that he hates you. There is a reason for this."

"Why?"

"Because your name is Chongzi."

Chongzi was even more clueless.

Yan Zhenzhu said softly: "There was actually a senior sister before you."

Senior sister? Chongzi is really stupid. It turns out that he is not the only disciple of Master. Why didn't he hear Teacher mention the matter of senior sister to him.

"What about him now?"

"She goes."

As expected. No wonder Master is so sad. Chongzi became sad, "He...is he okay?"

"Very good. Very good."

"Is he great?"

"Not at all. He didn't learn much magic."

Yes, the teacher said that it doesn't matter if you don't learn magic, Chongzi squeezed his finger, "Did he die in the hands of the devil?"

Yan Zhenzhu shook her head.

"That......"

“Your Highness handled it personally,” Yan Zhenzhu said indifferently, “He has been expelled from the sect.”

What does "handle it privately" mean? It's not difficult to understand. What kind of crime did he commit to get kicked out of school? He must have deceived his teacher and humiliated the ancestor. Something unforgivable.

The teacher says that he did something wrong.

Chongzi's face turned pale, what really shocked him was Yan Zhenzhu's last sentence.

"His name is Chongzi."

Qin Ke's indifference, everyone's strange eyes, and his love and secrets, all of a sudden explained sensibly.

***

The Chasing Waves Sword was still glued to the stone block, not moving.

Chongzi sat quietly by the Sihai Sea.

It can be seen that senior brother is very familiar with his teacher. Even though he had committed the unforgivable sin, even though he had been kicked out by his teacher, master still missed him. When he punished her himself, he must have been very angry and hurt.

As for that senior sister he had never met. Chongzi's attitude had gone from pitiful to loathsome.

Master must really cherish him treat him very well, and can even give this kind of kindness to Chongzi at this time, but that senior sister must have let him down, made him sad, and even made him abandon his sword!

Nothing sadness and anger can compare to disappointment.

Those who like Chongzi are because they think of him as someone else; those who hate Chongzi also because they think of him as someone else. The magic weapon, name, and everything she got from her teacher all belonged to that older sister, so it's no wonder people despised her and thought of her as a thief.  

Everything that should have belonged to her senior sister, love and hate, likes and dislikes, had all fallen on her and allowed her to endure it.

It turned out that he wasn't the one Master had always cherished and protected.

Chongzi looked at Xing Can and muttered, "Is this also hers?"

Luo Yinfan really came out at noon. When he returned to Chonghua Palace, it was already dark, and he subconsciously checked the whereabouts of the little disciple, but the results he got made him suddenly change color – Inside and outside the palace, there was no aura of anger from the little disciple! There was no response even for the remaining magic spells in his body, he seemed to have just disappeared

Luo Yinfan was very clear about what his absence meant and suddenly panicked.

He was so negligent to let her have another accident! If he really...

Zizhu Peak has obstructions everywhere, so it's reasonable to say that there won't be any problems.

Luo Yinfan comforted himself and personally searched every room in Chonghua Palace, but still found nothing, and his heart gradually sank.

According to his current temperament. Chongzi couldn't have sneaked out of Nanhua without permission. So why did his immortal spell fail?

Could it be that Yu Du and the others...

Impossible! He used the mana within him to cover up his demonic aura. Unless someone with higher mana than him, no one would ever be able to detect it.

The green mountains and bamboos roiled, and it was impossible to see what was hidden below.

After searching the entire mountain, Luo Yinfan couldn't maintain his composure any longer, and finally decided to head to the main peak to take a look. Who would have expected that the eternal curse would react as soon as he got up with his sword.

In the bamboo forest behind the mountain, traces of anger loomed.

Anger filled the forest, the girl sat cross-legged on the ground, her eyes closed, and Suāní snored beside her.

Chongzi had heard of the elder sister. The more he thought about it, the more uneasy he felt. When he returned to his room, he tried his best to study the book his teacher gave him, determined to be better than the older sister. But as a result he just ran to Suāní for help. Unexpectedly, Suān ní saw that his talent was too far behind the previous one, so he was too lazy to accompany him and just went to bed, and he was so angry that he practiced alone until it got dark.

"Chong'er!" The voice was familiar, but the trace of anxiety in the middle made it feel foreign.

Chong'er? Did the teacher call me?

Almost as soon as he opened his eyes, a pair of hands pulled him up from the ground.

His eyebrows were knitted together, and his black eyes were full of concern. He looked her up and down. The person in front of him was no longer the Immortal who was indifferent when he first met him, but was simply a teacher who was worried about what happened to his student.

Chongzi stared at him blankly.

Those eyes, that worry, she seemed to have seen it before.

"It's late. How can you run around!" His reproach in anger didn't feel the least bit uncomfortable, and he quickly bent down, as if hugging her into his arms.

So Master was really worried about him? Chongzi came back to his senses, excitement flooded like a tide, and subconsciously stretched out his hand to respond.

The hand didn't hold him the way he wanted it to and stopped in midair just in time.

The atmosphere turned from tense to awkward.

After a while, his teacher and disciple turned their faces at the same time, but they saw Suān ní next to him who had woken up at an unknown time, still lying on the ground, staring round. After staying on Zizhu Peak for so long, he couldn't imagine that his teacher would still have such an expression.

"It's A Zi's fault for worrying Master," the little hand tugged gently.

Necromantic techniques use the terrain and environment to hide the true soul and anger. No wonder even Immortal couldn't detect it. After confirming that he was fine, Luo Yinfan smiled bitterly. Secretly retracted his hand and straightened up, "It's already dark now, don't come out at will."

All the excitement faded in an instant, Chongzi lowered his head and said "oh".

What she was worried about wasn't really him. He wasn't serious, it was just A Zi.

Seeing his determination, Luo Yinfan was much more careful when teaching techniques, and Chongzi became more and more proficient. Sure enough, Master pointed out that it was better than a few days of hard training. No wonder everyone wants to be his disciple, and since then he has listened more seriously, coupled with his hard work, after three days, his swordsmanship has improved greatly. Even if it's not good, it's fine to come and go freely.

Everyone knows that Venerable Chonghua protects his disciple the most.

Early in the morning, he went with a sword to Xiaofeng to talk to Yan Zhenzhu, and accidentally met Sima Miaoyuan on the street.

Because she was being punished, Sima Miaoyuan was jealous and loathed, and sneered, "It's no surprise that you look beautiful. You really resembled the vixen in our palace back then."

This is too cruel. She even lost her status as a princess. Of course, Chongzi ignored it. He didn't hear it, he didn't see it, and he thought Sima Miaoyuan was air.

Without a response, Sima Miaoyuan raised his voice, "Do you think His Majesty is a match for you?"

This sentence just hit Chongzi's mind. Chongzi immediately stopped and turned to look at him coldly.

Sima Miaoyuan was only angry with him, and said very happily, "You still don't understand? His Majesty has already had a disciple. He is called Chongzi, and Xing Can is the magic weapon he uses."

"Does a noble person like you care about it?"

"The name and magic weapon, this was originally his. Who do you think you are..."

Sima Miaoyuan suddenly couldn't speak anymore, and looked at him with a dumbfounded look.

The phoenix eyes narrowed slightly, and Chongzi smiled sweetly. He stared at her blankly.

Just listening to her relaxed and happy tone, she said slowly, "I was nothing at first, but sadly now he's gone. Now Chongzi is me. His is mine and his master (Xing Can) is only me!"

The sound of water in the smoke, the color of the mountains in the clouds, and the view of Moyun Peak are actually very good. The mountain peak was covered with ancient black pines and cypresses. Neat and orderly, and has a solemn beauty. With a cold air, there are two thousand year old vines outside the Moyun Cave, full of strange blue fruits. Chongzi thought it was medicine. Then, when he asked it by chance, he found that it was used to punish and he was shocked.

Yan Zhenzhu wasn't there, Chongzi was still in a good mood. He stopped by Moyun Peak to say hello. Thinking of Sima Miaoyuan's face just now, it was like opening a large dyeing workshop, and he couldn't help but laugh.

A princess who was spoiled by the heavens, it was inevitable to suffer from quarrels.

In fact, after calming down and thinking about it, Chongzi regretted his actions just now. As usual, his father said that it was better to offend a man than offend a criminal. From the way Sima Miaoyuan had plotted against him the day before, it was really hard to care about him over such trivial matters. Not being wise, it would become a hidden danger in the future and cause trouble.

But she was only twelve years old, and that childish temperament still made her feel happier.

As soon as he walked outside the Moyun Cave, a man came out ahead. He was only thirty years old, tall and beautifully dressed. He held a white folding fan in his hand. 

Compared to the quiet and innocent Qin Ke, she had a different temperament. Her appearance is ordinary, her two sword-brows are eye-catching, especially her step, her attitude, her three points are relaxed, seven points are high-spirited, completely worthy of the word "sweet and suave".

Chongzi hurriedly lowered his head and retreated to the side of the road.

The man didn't pay attention, and walked past him. After a while, Min Yunzhong also stepped out of the hole and shouted angrily, "You bastard!"

"Brother Qin must have waited a long time. I will go to him first." The man paused, closed his fan with a smile, turned to his side and saluted nonchalantly, “Sorry, Sorry, Immortal Venerable.”

After he finished speaking, he left.

Who is this person? Dare to be rude to Min Xianzun! Chongzi was shocked, and looked at Min Yunzhong again, holding the Buddhist Pagoda tightly in his hand, but there was a rare expression of helplessness on his face.

Min Yunzhong also saw it and his tone softened, "What about your teacher? He came out again?"

Chongzi hurriedly stepped forward to say hello, and replied, "Master is here, but he didn't come out."

Min Yunzhong nodded and gave him a few words of encouragement, and asked him to come back, "Be diligent. Don't disappoint your teacher."

The man who had been impudent on Moyun Peak was now standing in front of Zizhu Peak, holding a folding fan and facing the cliff.

Chongzi felt strange and couldn't help but stop to take a few more looks.

When he noticed the movement, the man turned his head to the side, his eyes immediately lit up, raised his eyebrows and smiled, and beckoned to her, "When did such a beautiful Little Sister come to Nanhua. I don't know."

Everyone in Nanhua recognizes Chongzi, so it can be seen that he is not a disciple of Nanhua. Chongzi only felt that her smile was too kind, and when he heard her complimenting her for being beautiful, he blushed and bowed, "I don't know Big Brother's name. How should I call Big Brother?"

The man bowed to him and covered their faces with a fan, "I, my surname is Zhuo. You can call me Brother Zhuo."

Just now, he said that he was looking for Qin Ke. Could he be the Young Palace Lord Qinghua that Wen Lingzhi mentioned the other day? 

Chongzi connected the situation before and after, and then glanced at the fan in his hand, he became more and more convinced, he thought that this young palace master was behaving casually, and his words were more seductive, and he knew that he was an uncouth person, so he smiled, "It turned out to be Young Master Zhuo."

The man was stunned for a moment, and said strangely: "What a smart little sister. How do you know who I am?"

Chongzi pursed his lips and pointed to the words on the fan, "Qinghua Palace, it's not hard to guess."

The man nodded repeatedly and took her little hand, "Nanhua is so boring. Why don't you accompany your Brother for a walk, how about it?"

It was okay not to look at Min Xianzun in the eyes, it was impolite to say that Nanhua was boring in front of himself, Chongzi was a little angry, and quickly pulled his hand back, "There is a saying that don't play with things and lose your mind . Nanhua disciple takes care of the common people, practices diligently, and never dares to be lazy. Therefore, Nanhua Mountain is a place of pure cultivation, and not a place to seek pleasure. How can Senior Brother Zhuo not even understand this truth?"

Being taught a lesson by a little girl, the man was extremely shocked, and he couldn't help laughing. "Makes sense, it's so true. This little sister is amazing!"

Chongzi glared at him and turned to leave. 

The man closed the folding fan, pulled it over to take a careful look, and smiled even more, "I presume you are a new student, right? Call me Senior Brother and walk with me again, so that you won't suffer in Nanhua in the future."

Ha, I still need to use you to look after me? Chongzi smiled secretly, and said, "You are not from Nanhua!"

"What a sight!" The man poked his chin with a folding fan. "Qin Ke, do you know him? I can ask him to take care of you. With him, who would dare to bully you?"

Brother Qin? Chongzi's heart moved, "Are you familiar with Senior Brother Qin?"

The man said, "Of course."

Chongzi hesitated, "Then can you tell him, I..."

Before they could finish speaking, a blue light flashed above their heads, and both of them looked up at the same time, but it was Qin Ke who came over with a sword.

Seeing Chongzi, Qin Ke's face turned cold as expected.

Chongzi felt sad and called out "Senior Brother" in a low voice.

Qin Ke nodded in response, then turned to the man and frowned. "I heard Min Xianzun said you were gone. It turned out that you were here."

"Instead of accusing her of scolding, it's better to accompany Little Sister to talk," 

As if nothing had happened, the man gently pulled Chongzi and asked, "What's Little sister's name and which Immortal master do you worship? I'll come back to you next time.

Before Chongzi could answer, Qin Ke interrupted him, "It turns out that you are here."

The man was dumbfounded.

Qin Ke said hurriedly, "He has been looking for you all over. He just rummaged through my Yuchen Peak, and then went to Moyun Peak. So I thought maybe you would come here soon. Looking at the friendship between the two factions , I came here specifically to look for you. Brother Zhuo may be hiding in Zizhu Peak, but I don't think he will dare to break through here. I have to go back soon."

The man seemed to give Zhi Ji a headache, and when he heard the words, he left Chongzi, "Let's go, I'm looking for you."

After seeing the two off, Chongzi returned to Chonghua Palace dejectedly, reported to Luo Yinfan, and then went downstairs to practice the Self-Liberation Technique. It is said that this Self Liberation Technique is similar to the Body Splitting Technique. Soul-sharing techniques mainly relied on the evolution of the ghost body, whereas the Self-Liberation Technique separated the primordial spirit from the physical body. Perhaps because of his restless mind, Chongzi repeated it several times but failed. In the end, he became irritable and forgot Luo Yinfan's warning, and allowed the primordial spirit to leave his body. 

This time it really worked.

The primordial spirit was separated from the body, and Chongzi felt light and fluttered everywhere, and excitedly went out and took a walk.

In the middle of the night, the moon was as cold as water, and the pearl light in the hall was extinguished.

In the past, because of etiquette, he didn't dare disturb his teacher. Chongzi knew almost nothing about his teacher's daily life. At this moment, his primordial spirit left his body. He quietly walked out of Luo Yinfan's room, used a wall piercing technique, stuck his head in first, and looked left and right.

For the current Chongzi, seeing things at night is no longer a problem, and the entire space is unobstructed.

On the wooden bed against the wall, Luo Yinfan lay quietly, his white clothes gaudy.

Master sleeps in his clothes. With a red face and sticking out his tongue, Chongzi secretly rejoiced, bit his lips, suppressed his laughter, and pressed his whole body against the wall. He silently floated to the front of the bed, saw a few long strands of hair hanging from the bed and dragging them to the ground. He hurriedly knelt down and stretched out his hand to clean them.

The tentacles of his black hair were silky, and they moved his heart.

Chongzi raised his eyes and looked at the sleeping face on the bed.

Her thin lips pursed slightly, her eyes were slightly closed, her brows were slightly locked, and her complexion was slightly pale. Even if she was asleep, her weak and gentle temperament still made people want to adore her.

Strands of hair slipped from her fingers, and her cheeks were intensely purple.

With this face alone, no one else in this world could match him. Why did it always make him feel so wrong? Did he really see it?

Luo Yinfan had already noticed that someone had entered the room, and he was so familiar with this air that he immediately knew that it was him, and Chongzi was very surprised. If the little disciple in his previous life did this, he would not be surprised, but now his little disciple is well-behaved. He rarely even enters the main hall on weekdays, and sneaking into his room in the middle of the night is already an extremely daring act.

What will she do?

The primordial spirit came out of the body, and ordinary people couldn't see it, but Luo Yinfan's cultivation base was so famous that even if he closed his eyes, he knew everything he was doing.

He knew that this kid was talented. He was able to let the Primordial Spirit leave the body so quickly.

Luo Yinfan sighed secretly, also a little embarrassed. Even though he was young in this life and didn't know much, that female disciple sneaked into his teacher's bedroom in the middle of the night and always surpassed his rituals, let alone in his previous life… Luo Yinfan was starting to be pleased that he was in peace when he slept on weekdays and never undressed.

Waiting to speak and rebuke, as if not the time.

The little disciple knelt on the ground and started to style her hair for her, and then she started to stop.

The phoenix's eyes were hazy, and she just stared at him dreamily, motionless for a long time.

Luo Yinfan was helpless and coughed softly.

Master is awake! Chongzi was so scared that the three souls and seven souls returned to their positions. He covered his mouth and nose with both hands. After not seeing anything for a while, he patted his chest, spat out a suffocating breath, and breathed out lightly.

After this fright, she still didn't intend to leave, but reached out and took the long black jade hairpin beside the pillow and quietly placed it on the table.

Master will wake up tomorrow morning, will he know it? He just thought he was wrong, right?

The charming phoenix eyes flickered and squinted proudly.

Do you really think you can hide this from him? In an instant, Luo Yinfan became both angry and playful, only to feel that the naughty little pupil back then, he couldn't help but open his eyes and reproached, "Chong'er!"

Master is really amazing, he can find it! Chongzi is guilty of being a thief and wants to sneak away.

Instant awakening, originally only needed an immortal incantation, but in a hurry, for some reason, it is difficult for the primordial spirit to return to its original body.

Too bad he can't come back!

Chongzi was stunned when he found out that there was a problem.

At first glance, he could tell that she had not heeded the warning. He was eager to make progress, and forcibly released his primordial spirit, which led to such consequences. Luo Yinfan turned and sat down, helpless and angry, and with his hair loose, he taught a lesson, “If you are so careless, it will only injure your vitality. your place!"

Chongzi barely cried, and knelt in front of the bed, "Teacher...teacher..."

Before he could admit his mistake, he reached out and slapped his forehead hard, and then the realization was in a dreamy state, and in an instant, that Chongzi had returned to the room, sitting on his bed well.

This is so reckless!

The first time he got naughty, an accident happened, and Chongzi broke out in a cold sweat.

It's a pity that children like this, the more indulgent and presumptuous they are, Luo Yinfan didn't punish him this time, and Chongzi saw more and more that his teacher was good at talking. When Luo Yinfan woke up early on the third day, he saw Linghe, who was delivering letters, waiting outside the hall. When he saw her, he shyly approached, his head almost fell to the ground, and his walking posture was very strange.

Seeing the situation clearly, Luo Yinfan laughed.

How dare he use Linghe to practice the Soul Exchange Technique without permission. Perhaps it was because of the exchange of primordial spirits, and he was unable to return to his place. That little disciple really should have a lesson!

He raised his face, "If you don't have a long memory, I will punish you to be Linghe for a day."

Chongzi wanted to cry without tears, shook his slender neck, and followed him into the hall.

Luo Yinfan ignored him and threw away the letter, "Go, deliver the letter."

Did the teacher really want to send a letter like this? Chongzi begged for a long time to no avail, so he had to flap his wings, but unfortunately this body was never his. He barely flew half a meter high, and fell due to bad balance.

"Teacher, my physical body is occupied by Linghe, and it will cause trouble!"

As soon as the words fell, "Chongzi" suddenly came in from outside the hall door, with his waist down, his chest up, his neck up, and his legs up one step at a time.

Chongzi was so embarrassed that he wanted to find a crack in the ground to enter.

Seeing him holding his long mouth at the corner of his clothes, Luo Yinfan was also amused, helping him and Linghe to return to their bodies, sighing, "You are so impatient. What if something happens!"

Hearing the worry, Chongzi bit his lips and smiled, and said after a while, "I wouldn't be able to fix it if Master wasn't here."

Luo Yinfan shook his head, pulled him forward, and said solemnly, "Chong'er, teacher taught you the teacher's technique, didn't expect you to become world famous, but hoped that when the teacher left you could protect yourself thoroughly. Now you are so careless. You will only hurt yourself. How can the teacher be relieved?"

Chongzi was silent for a long time, then whispered, "Teacher, disciple is Azi, not Chong'er."

"You..."

"I'm not very talented. Master accepted me and treated me very well. Was it because of Chongzi before?"

Hurt by his words, Luo Yinfan stared at the slightly disappointed pair of bloodshot eyes in front of him, silent.

He would pamper her and love her like this. There was no denying that it was completely because he was ashamed of her in his previous life, gave her a name, and gave her Xing Can. But he had, in word, deed, and appearance, become another person, and he remembered nothing at all. Sometimes even he himself doubted whether the disciple he raised was that poor child in the first place.

Was this kind of compensation what he wanted? Because of his mistake, was it too unfair for him to endure everything from his previous life?

These questions, he never thought about it.

Maybe some mistakes can't be fixed.

There was silence in the hall, and the Linghe next to him was thrown into the game for no reason. Originally, he was full of grievances and wanted to seek more justice. At this time, he felt that the atmosphere was solemn, so he had to take the letter wisely and walk out of the hall, flap his wings and fly away. 

Finally, Luo Yinfan supported her small shoulders, "If you don't like it, Master won't call you Chong'er."

Chongzi glanced at him and lowered his eyes, "As long as teacher really likes A Zi, teacher can call me by the same name."

"Master liked the previous Chong'er, and also liked the current Azi."

"Who is better? Azi or Chong'er?"

Once the obedient and wise children became stubborn, more difficult to deal with than the naughty children, Luo Yinfan couldn't laugh or cry. How can they be compared? They are the same person.

He had never seen Master look so embarrassed. Chongzi was secretly happy and decided to let him go.

"Does teacher think of Azi as Chong'er?"

"Azi, Chong'er, they are all good Master's disciples."

That Senior Brother, he is not a good student! Chongzi was furious. He let his master down, but Chongzi wouldn't do it. Over time, the teacher will be able to find its strengths.

Luo Yinfan did not forget what had just happened, "If you mess up again, I won't forgive you easily."

"Understood!"
