Seeking Good Fortune and Avoiding Misfortune Starts From Tianshi Mansion

Chapter 126 125. Master’s dark history

 Shanpi?

  ? ? ?

Lei Jun has question marks on his forehead.

 For a moment, he thought he had heard wrong.

The Mountain Pit in this world, also known as the Iron-Eating Beast, looks like a bear with black and white fur...

 That is the giant panda, or cat bear!

He has known for a long time that this beast also exists in Bashu in this world, and he had been thinking about going to the Bamboo Sea in southern Shu to find it.

In this world of monasticism, people are not the only ones who can practice spiritual energy.

Non-human beings can not only become monsters, they can also cultivate with spiritual energy and become spiritual beasts or fairy spirits.

 There can be tiger spirits, vixens, snake spirits, etc. Of course, pandas can also become spirits.

 Lei Jun is very open to this point.

But what the Shushan disciple across from me meant was that Lei Jun’s own mentor, Yuan Mobai, was actually a hunk of spirit?

Master, I have to say that you gave this disciple a big surprise...

　　No, I've never heard you mention this before... The corners of Lei Jun's mouth twitched. In front of outsiders, he didn't know what expression to put on his face for a moment.

 Before going out, I listened to Yuan Mobai explain a lot of things related to Shushan.

 However, Yuan Mobai only briefly mentioned his own experience at the time.

"Although it was an unintentional mistake in the past, it was indeed my teacher's fault. Fortunately, most of the grudges have been resolved."

At that time, the young man in purple was very calm: "Some things involve your master, so I won't say much. If you meet the descendants of Shushan during this trip, and there are people who know the old things, I think I will tell you something."

Master, you also have image baggage. You didn’t mention a single word of the most critical information... Lei Jun complained in his heart.

 He suddenly felt that the meaning of the golden bamboo had changed somewhat.

Many things that I had doubts about before can now be understood immediately.

 No wonder when Yuan Mobai and senior sister Xu Yuanzhen talked about the candidates for the new Heavenly Master, Yuan Mobai claimed that no one's turn would be his, at least he would be the last choice.

This also explains why, as an elder with a foreign surname, Yuan Mobai can get along well with several elders of the Li family, becoming a bridge of compromise and balance between Li and foreigners, and even temporarily takes charge of the Wanfa Zong altar.

 Obviously, in addition to Yuan Mobai's personal temperament and style, it is also related to his background.

Moreover, just as Yuan Mobai said at the beginning, although he was somewhat curious about Lei Fatian's calligraphy urn, he was not particularly eager.

Taking into account his background and advantages, among the three caves and three realms scriptures, the most suitable one for his practice is the Ming Gongren calligraphy urn.

On the one hand, it is more conducive to transforming into a human form and practicing the authentic Taoist scriptures like a human being.

On the other hand, Shanpi has inherent advantages in body structure.

Hmm, having said this, I suddenly wanted to see Master and his old man show his true form... Lei Jun quickly restrained his divergent thoughts.

 Looking at Ji Chuan, who looked unkind in front of him, he suddenly thought of another question.

Yuan Mobai’s identity base does not seem to have spread on a large scale.

 Otherwise Lei Jun should have heard about it long ago.

 Looking at the current situation, it seems more like it is limited to the Longhu Mountain and Shushan factions, and only some people know about it.

I just don’t know whether I should say Lei Jun was lucky or not, but he happened to meet Ji Chuan, a Shushan disciple who knew about it.

 It is not surprising that the Tianshi Mansion in Longhu Mountain keeps it secret and limits the spread of the inside information.

Even in the early years, the transformation of spiritual beasts into humans was quite eye-catching.

 Especially when someone like Yuan Mobai ascends to a high position, it attracts even more attention.

In recent years, great demons have begun to appear frequently and wreak havoc. Not long ago, a demonic chaos broke out in the Western Regions that nearly turned the Tang Dynasty upside down. In this case, things like Yuan Mobai became even more sensitive.

 Once it is announced to the public, I am afraid it will cause an uproar.

Even if Yuan Mobai practices spiritual energy, not demonic energy.

 But apart from Longhu Mountain keeping secrets, Shushan did not leak the news to a large scale.

From this point of view, Yuan Mobai said that the grievances between the two parties have been generally resolved, and the real situation should be quite different.

Of course, the possibility of "I will keep your secret for the rest of my life" cannot be ruled out.

Lei Jun had many thoughts flashing through his mind, but his face was relatively calm:

"Jichuan... I have heard about it, and I remember that I was a disciple of a senior He Dongxing of the Shushan sect.

What I didn’t expect was that meeting someone is not as good as being famous. Are Senior He’s disciples so polite? "

He took out a jade slip in his hand and waved it in front of the other party: "It's a pity that my master also wrote a letter. After I came to Bashu, I ordered the poor Taoist to visit Senior He and submit a letter of greetings."

Ji Chuan on the opposite side had just spoken the truth, but he already regretted it because he remembered his teacher's teachings.

At this time, after listening to Lei Jun's words, his expression changed again and again, as if something came to his lips and he endured it.

Master, are you sure everyone has resolved their grievances... Lei Jun almost had the urge to hold his forehead.

“I was rude just now, fellow Taoist Wang Lei, please don’t blame me.”

Ji Chuan took a deep breath, calmed down and regained his composure.

His eyes fell on the jade slip in Lei Jun's hand: "Fellow Daoist Lei, please come this way. My tutor is in front. Since there is a letter from the noble sect... Elder Yuan, Taoist Lei can directly submit it to my tutor."

Lei Jun nodded and followed the opponent calmly forward.

 He still has the intention to observe.

Ji Chuan is currently flying in the clouds and mist like him, above the mountains.

 The opponent is not seen using a portable magic weapon.

 When Ji Chuan first appeared, a sword light flew towards him, and his escape method was obviously faster.

Speaking of which, comparing the news that Lei Jun heard before and seeing Ji Chuan wielding a sword with his own eyes, in this world, a Taoist weapon-refining monk, or a Taoist sword cultivator, did not use the flying sword as a skateboard when flying into the sky. The image is that the body and the sword are combined, the sword splits the air in front of the person, and flies away like a fish swimming in the water...

“How much does Fellow Daoist Lei know about what happened back then?”

Lei Jun was thinking wildly when Ji Chuan, who was leading the way, suddenly asked.

After hearing the other party’s question, Lei Jun replied vaguely: “I know a little bit.”

"Ji Meng Lang was rude just now. I hope fellow Taoist Lei will forgive me. If Taoist Ru Lei is free later, please allow me to be your host and take Taoist Lei around Bashu as an apology." Ji Chuan said.

Lei Jun glanced at Ji Chuan again in surprise.

However, the two sides did not talk any more, as they could already see big movements in the mountains in the distance.

 A ray of precious light rushed up into the sky, as if forming a formation, surrounding a large area nearby.

There is not only the fierce sword light, but also the brilliance of other magic weapons.

Lei Jun only made a rough count. I'm afraid there are hundreds of magical artifacts scattered in all directions, covering hundreds of miles of mountains and ridges. "There is a big demon named Nine-clawed Stone Lion causing trouble here. My master is leading some of our brothers to try to surround and kill this demon." Ji Chuan briefly introduced.

Perhaps considering Yuan Mobai's sensitive identity, the Shushan disciple didn't say anything more and just took Lei Jun to meet his mentor.

 Elders of Shushan, why go eastward?

On the top of a solitary mountain, sat an old Taoist who looked a little older.

 Referring to Ji Chuan's practice path, most of him is also a Shushan sword cultivator.

However, he has an easy-going temperament, and even smiles a lot, without any aggressiveness around him.

When Lei Jun and Ji Chuan came to the foot of the lonely peak, Elder He of Shushan looked over and said with a smile:

“Young student Lei Xiaoyou from Longhu Mountain, your reputation has been as strong as your last name recently.”

Lei Jun greeted the other party and said: "Lei Chongyun, a junior student at Longhu Mountain, has met Senior He in Shushan. My master has asked me to send my greetings to you on his behalf."

 He handed the Yuan Mobai jade slip to Ji Chuan, who presented it to He Dongxing in person.

 At the same time, he whispered: "Master, disciple Meng Lang, was rude in front of Fellow Daoist Lei earlier."

"You don't know how to speak. There are things that a teacher can say and your father can say, but it's not easy for you to say it freely."

He Dongxing received the jade slip and did not open it. He just looked at Lei Jun and said, "Didn't your master explain much to you before you came here?"

Lei Jun answered truthfully: "My master said that he offended the seniors of your noble sect through unintentional mistakes in the past. However, the grievances between the two parties have been generally resolved. He did not explain the specific details. He only ordered the juniors to go to Bashu and greet the people in Shushan on his behalf. senior."

He Dongxing nodded: "Your master did not mean what happened back then, and everything related to it has indeed come to an end.

 A few years ago, Junior Brother Ji had another competition with your master, but there was no grudge, it was just a discussion and exchange to see how both sides have progressed over the years.

Although Junior Brother Ji doesn’t say it, I know that he has always admired fellow Taoist Yuan’s cultivation and art.

As for some internal information, only a few people in our sect know it, and it will never be leaked. As for my disciple..."

He looked at Ji Chuan, who was standing with his hands tied up, and said, "...he is the son of Junior Brother Ji. Later he accidentally found out a thing or two. He didn't keep his mouth shut. I will let him improve his memory later."

Ji Chuan lowered his head and said, "The master's lesson is right, and the disciple knows his mistake."

However, He Dongxing looked at Lei Jun and suddenly smiled: "But since you already know it, you might as well listen to it. Although the grudges have been resolved, I am still happy to add some trouble to fellow Taoist Yuan, hehe!"

The old man suddenly acted childishly, making Lei Jun dumbfounded: "Senior, I'm afraid this is a bit inappropriate..."

That’s what he said, but he was almost dying of curiosity...

“What Fellow Daoist Yuan said is true. He made an unintentional mistake at that time, because at that time, he was not even aware of his sanity.”

He Dongxing said leisurely: "Shanpi is greedy. After being nourished by the spiritual energy, his saliva was like gold and iron. He dared to eat anything and could chew anything. As a result, one day, he also ate the spiritual flowers raised by Junior Brother Ji. ”

After a pause, the old Taoist priest added: "Junior Brother Ji has been cultivating the spiritual flower for nearly sixty years. He will be able to harvest it when the period of Jiazi comes."

Lei Jun’s mouth twitched when he heard this.

 Spiritual flowers grow for sixty years, which is not a long time.

But a monk personally spends sixty years cultivating and caring for it...compared to the lifespan of monks in this world, this is already a very significant number.

Although I don’t know what Elder Ji intends to do with the spiritual flower he cultivated, and what losses he will suffer if he loses the spiritual flower, he can make a rough estimate by seeing that his son Ji Chuan is still emotionally explosive after so many years.

Especially Ji Chuan usually seems to have a relatively calm and self-sustained style...

A certain Gungun accidentally ate the spirit flower and was chased by Shushan disciples, and fled outside Bashu.

 Fortunately, the heavenly master from the previous generation took action, and he protected a certain Gungun, compensated the elders of Shushan, and resolved this grudge.

 Except for the person involved, Elder Ji, only a few people such as He Dongxing knew the details.

Those who know a little bit about it probably only know that Elder Ji of our sect and Elder Yuan of Longhushan have some old grudges, but they don’t know the specific details, so naturally they don’t know the foundation of Yuan Mobai.

As for the Tianshi Mansion, few people know that Elder Yuan, who has always been highly virtuous, gentle and upright, has such a dark history...

“It’s a pity that your master has never entered Shu again since he left that year. I welcome him back to his hometown very much.” Elder He said cheerfully.

Lei Jun also laughed.

What I was thinking in my mind was that I wouldn’t be silenced by my master after I go back, right?

Elder He from Shushan did not ask Lei Jun why he came to Bashu or where he was going. He only said:

“There are still things to take care of here. If Lei Xiaoyou is not in a hurry, please wait for a few days and ask my disciple to be your guide later.

Nowadays, the earth's veins are changing frequently, and the situation in Sichuan is no more complicated than outside Sichuan. If you are new to this place, don't be careless. "

The other party was really caring, so Lei Jun did not refuse and thanked He Dongxing and Ji Chuan.

The people of Shushan were hunting a big demon called the Nine-clawed Stone Lion here. Through various means, they had successfully trapped the big demon underground within a certain range nearby.

 Next, He Dongxing will personally cast a spell to force the nine-clawed stone lion out of the ground, and then kill it.

Ji Chuan and other Shushan disciples arranged magical weapons on the outside and assisted from the side.

 The preparations were almost complete, and other Shushan disciples also came to He Dongxing to gather here.

 “Uncle He.” A handsome young Taoist priest with a jade flute on his waist came to the vicinity of Gufeng in the clouds and mist, heading towards He Dong to resume his life.

Ji Chuan stood by and introduced Lei Jun: "Fellow Daoist Lei, this is Junior Brother Lin Xinran and Lin, who is under the sect of our great uncle."

 He did not introduce it in too much detail, but only said a few words.

 But Lei Jun is more sensitive to certain surnames now.

What's more, before coming here, Yuan Mobai had mentioned that there were more than one or two descendants of the Jiangzhou Lin clan in the Shushan sect.

Hmm, there are also the Ye Clan in Jinzhou, the Fang Clan in Jingxiang, and the Xiao Clan outside Long...

Lin Xinran's performance was much calmer than that of Ji Chuan. He did not show any special mood swings and greeted Lei Jun as usual.

 Another Shushan disciple who arrived later had a similar reaction to Ji Chuan's original reaction, or even exceeded it.

Ji Chuan was still alone at first, and his emotions temporarily went out of control.

Now this Shushan disciple named Zhao Gang, even though He Dongxing was standing nearby, he still stared at Lei Jun angrily with his eyes rounded.

"This is...Senior Brother Zhao Gang Zhao from Uncle Ji's sect." In front of Lei Jun, Ji Chuan mentioned his father according to his sect's ancestry.

Zhao Gang, as the disciple of Elder Ji, was staring at Lei Jun with wide eyes.

 But with He Dongxing standing by, he did not dare to be presumptuous and suppressed his anger.

However, when He Dongxing made the final preparations to kill the nine-clawed stone lion, only Zhao Gang and Lei Jun were left, and he lowered his voice:

 “Disciple of Yuan Mobai, I remember you.”

Hearing this, Lei Jun calmly turned to look at the other party.

Zhao Gang snorted: "We have a long way to go!"

 “Well, you remembered it, but it’s useless, just like you…”

Lei Jun: "It looks like there are two brushes, but they have no hairs."
