Before Huang Fuzhou came to the Xuanshui True Palace, after waiting patiently for half a time, a Taoist came out to lead him to the side hall, offered fragrant tea, and said: "Uncle Huang, you came unlucky, the big competition in the door is about to begin, and the teacher is in retreat, I'm afraid I won't have time to see you." k update"

Huang Fuzhou sighed secretly, this is the third time he has come here after half a year out of customs, but he has received such an answer every time.

Qi Yuntian, as the head of the top ten disciples, Yuan Ying Zhenren, since ascending to the position of the top ten disciples, no one has ever fought against him, and now his deeds are becoming more and more unpredictable, what else do you need to close for this?

This is clearly a word of shirk, but I don't want to see him.

However, Huang Fuzhou couldn't have a seizure, knowing that it was useless, he still asked with a strong spirit: "When will Senior Brother Qi come out?"

This Dao person shook his head again and again, and said: "Maybe half a year, maybe a year, as for the specific time, Xiaodao really doesn't know." ”

Huang Fuzhou heard this, his heart was even more empty, he had been in retreat for forty-five years, he was still complacent, and wanted to cheer up, but he didn't want to be treated so coldly, but he was also a person with a firm heart, and he would never give up easily when he recognized it, otherwise he would not have been in retreat for more than 40 years.

But the position of the top ten disciples is not only a competition between the disciples in the sect, but also a game between the Xuanmen family and the master and apprentice lineage, if he can't get Qi Yuntian's promise, what if he can defeat Xiao Fu?

He sat until the end of the day, then he stood up, quit the man, and walked out of the Xuanshui True Palace.

He looked up at the magnificent sunset on the horizon, and made up his mind that he would come here every day from now on, until Senior Brother Qi was willing to see him.

He was about to go to the clouds, but a chubby Taoist walked out of the palace, saw his back, and greeted in a loud voice: "It's Senior Brother Huang in front?"

Huang Fuzhou looked back, his expression moved, he showed a little smile, and said: "It turned out to be Senior Brother Fan! I haven't seen Senior Brother for a long time, so it's always good?"

Fan Changqing patted his belly and said with a smile: "Senior brother, I have a wide heart and a fat body, and I am very haode." ”

He was surprised again: "What, Senior Brother Huang is also here to see Senior Brother?"

Huang Fuzhou sighed: "However, this is the third time that I have come to visit Senior Brother Qi after my brother has come out of the customs, but I still haven't seen my respect." ”

"Senior brother is also in retreat, and it is not easy for me to see ...... junior brother."

Fan Changqing narrowed his eyes, and suddenly said: "Senior brother, that apprentice has recently honored a lot of immortal tea, I heard that this is still the secret collection of Zhou Zhangyuan, junior brother, if I remember well, Senior Brother Huang is also a person in this way, you might as well go and taste it, how about it?"

Huang Fuzhou's heart moved slightly, although Fan Changqing was a registered disciple of Meng Zhenren, but speaking of which, he and Qi Yuntian were from the same sect after all, and whenever this senior brother brought up his juniors, he always came forward, and invited himself at this moment, did he get Qi Yuntian's arrangement?

Thinking of this, he couldn't hold back the excitement in his heart, but after all, he had cultivated kung fu, and he couldn't see the slightest inner thoughts on his face, so he said very naturally: "Since it is invited by the junior brother, how can the elder brother refuse it?"

Fan Changqing said: "Okay, senior brother, please come with my junior brother." ”

The two went all the way south, and within a moment, they came to a snail island with beautiful mountains and warmth.

Huang Fuzhou looked at it at a glance, only to see under the pines and cypresses, the grass is still clinging, the green vine and purple dill are green, the safflower and yellow flowers are all full of makeup, the young deer jumping next to the mountain stream, and the birds are singing, he can't help but be surprised: "This beautiful and gorgeous place is where the senior brother and apprentice live?"

Fan Changqing pointed to the bottom and said with a smile: "Senior brother has been in retreat for more than forty years, I'm afraid I don't know, junior brother, I recently accepted a good apprentice, it is a girl, and I am practicing on this Biluo Island, and my senior brother has never seen it." "...," I see. ”

Huang Fuzhou nodded, and he didn't blame him for being strange before, Fan Changqing has always been strict and cautious in accepting disciples, and he also knew the previous disciple, he was a wooden person, and he would never arrange the cultivation place like this, thinking that he should be a good disciple who has only been admitted to the door in recent years, otherwise he should not say a "good" word.

Before the two of them arrived outside the island, there was a female cultivator with delicate facets and clear eyes who stepped on the two-color Xuanguang to greet them, first saluted the two of them, and then stepped forward and pulled Fan Changqing's sleeve, swayed from side to side, made a pitiful appearance, and said, "Master, why did you want to come to see your poor apprentice today?"

Fan Changqing felt a little embarrassed, and said: "Han Yue, Hugh is messing around, how can you be without a situation if you have a fellow teacher here?"

Qiu Hanyue stuck out her little tongue, although she loved to play around, she always had to give her master some face, so she let go of her sleeves and stood aside with a grin.

Fan Changqing pointed at Huang Fuzhou and said, "This is your Uncle Huang, you started a few years earlier than becoming a teacher, you have to call Uncle Huang." ”

Qiu Hanyue immediately made a solemn face, saluted respectfully to Huang Fuzhou, and called out affectionately: "Uncle." ”

Then she raised her head, blinked, smiled playfully, and said, "Uncle Shi has a gift for my nephew?"

Huang Fuzhou stroked his beard and smiled, took out a golden toad the size of a baby's fist, and handed it to Qiu Hanyue, and said: "Uncle Shi came here in a hurry, and he has never prepared any good things, this little thing is called 'Landing Treasure', just whisper a few words to it, you can find the treasure in the soil, try all the souls, and give it to the nephew to play." ”

Although he was invited by Fan Changqing halfway, he originally wanted to visit Qi Yuntian, and he also brought some gifts with him, which was originally to be used by the disciples of Xuanshui True Palace, but his disciples did not dare to accept it, because they did not use it when they reached Zuihou.

This golden toad is actually a treasure, he is not afraid to give it out, Fan Changqing is willing to accept it, maybe he can say a few good words for himself in front of Qi Yuntian.

Fan Changqing glanced at it, and roughly saw that this thing was also quite rare, he pondered for a while, his face was slightly straight, and said, "Senior brother, please come and talk." ”

The two of them sat down in a gazebo, and immediately a maidservant on the island offered fragrant tea, but Huang Fuzhou didn't have the intention to taste more, so he put it down after a little dipping his lips, and praised Fan Changqing casually.

Although he still spoke freely on his face, Fan Changqing knew that his heart was not here, and after chatting a few words, he picked up the teacup and blew it, and said, "Senior Brother Huang has switched it out this time, but what are your plans?"

Seeing that he finally got down to business, Huang Fuzhou sat up slightly straight, and said cautiously: "Forty-six years ago, I couldn't fight with Xiao Fu, and I deeply regret it, and this time I came out, I want to fight with him again!"

After finishing speaking, he looked at Fan Changqing's face and waited for him to speak.

Fan Changqing put down the teacup, as if thinking about something, and after a long time, he slowly said in a voice: "Senior brother, do you know Senior Brother Ning Chong Xuanning?"

Huang Fuzhou nodded and said, "I have also heard from all the junior and junior brothers, but I didn't expect that there is such a person in my master-apprentice lineage. ”

Fan Changqing said: "Senior Brother Ning is the disciple of Uncle Sun, and this time he is about to take the position of the top ten disciples, and Master Meng and the other two uncles also know about this. ”

Huang Fuzhou suddenly felt a little bitter in his mouth, after leaving the customs, he also vaguely learned about Ning Chongxuan, he thought that his cultivation was not as good as himself, but he couldn't help but be the proud disciple of Sun Zhenren, even if his teacher was still in the world, it was impossible to fight with him.

But he originally thought that Qi Yuntian didn't just support himself at the beginning, he always had a chance, but listening to Fan Changqing's words, it seemed that he would only push Ning Chongxuan alone this time. ..., Fan Changqing saw that he was silent, so he said: "Senior Brother Huang, if you really want to give it a try, it's okay, but if you ask for it safely, you might as well take it off, but the chance is greater." ”

When Huang Fuzhou heard this, he pondered it carefully, and he could already discern the deep meaning.

If he wants to compete for the position of the top ten disciples this time, no one will stop him, but no one supports him, but if he gives up this big competition and has Ning Chongxuan become one of the top ten disciples, then next time he can free up his hands and support him to take the position.

According to common sense, what Fan Changqing said is indeed a safe way.

But Huang Fuzhou didn't think so, he worked hard to practice for more than 40 years, but the result was in exchange for others to come out, if he waited for another 24 years, who would guarantee that no outstanding disciple would step on his head again?

Not to mention others, even that Zhang Yan doesn't seem to be much worse than him.

And he can afford to wait, how can those juniors and disciples on Yangyue Island afford to wait?

After so many years of hard work, I finally got ahead, but when I was about to say no, how could I explain to them?

He nodded heavily, and then as if he had made up his mind, a hint of perseverance flashed in his eyes, and he stood up and arched his hand and said: "Thank you, junior brother, for telling me the truth, it's getting late today, and I will stay soon, senior brother, and leave." ”

Fan Changqing also got up and said, "Senior Brother Huang, junior brother, I'll give you a ride." ”

Huang Fuzhou raised his hand to stop him, and said in a deep voice: "Senior brother stay!"

After he bowed his hand again, he turned a puff of smoke into the sky and melted into the evening clouds.

At this time, Qiu Hanyue came to Fan Changqing's side and asked curiously: "Master, listening to what you say, wouldn't Uncle Zhang not be able to take the position of the top ten disciples?"

Fan Changqing shook his head and smiled, and said: "Who said it can't? Disciple, sometimes the victory or defeat is not as simple as you and I see, Senior Brother Zhang's ability is not bad, but Senior Brother Wuning has Sun Zhenren standing behind him like this, even if he wins a game, it is always untenable. ”

Qiu Hanyue nodded as if she didn't understand, and then her eyes turned around, but she was careful in her heart, thinking about how to tell Senior Sister Yanyi about today's events.

After Huang Fuzhou got out of Biluo Island, he turned into smoke and flew away, returning to Yangyue Island, but on the way, there was a purple and red smoke blocking in front of him, and a female Taoist aunt with a beautiful face and a dusty hand came to him, and said, "But Senior Brother Huang of Huang Fuzhou?"

Huang Fuzhou hurriedly shook his body and said, "It's here, dare to ask where this senior sister came from?"

This female Taoist aunt shook the dust and said solemnly: "Poor Dao is a disciple of Linlang Cave Heavenly Seat, and the real person has a law, so I will go and see Senior Brother Huang." ”

Huang Fuzhou's heart jumped, Rao is deep and introverted personality, and he couldn't help but lose his voice: "Qin Zhenren?"
