My Senior Brother is Too Steady

This, here...

Is it really the Xiao Qiongfeng that I am familiar with?

In a trapped formation outside the alchemy room, Taoist Priest Qi Yuan, the newly promoted Immortal of the Duxian Sect, with his eyes unfocused and his robes scattered, was looking at the three paths in front of him at a loss.

It's been a few days and I haven't been able to get out...

He actually spent many years studying formations, but his level of formations was very limited.

——After all, in the next few hundred years, Qi Yuan spent most of his time repairing the Dao foundation, and the method of studying the formation was just to arrange it a few times with the formation diagram. If he remembered how to arrange it, he would be considered to have understood it. Small success.

Therefore, facing the confusing series of formations...

"Which expert set this up on my Little Qiong Peak? But what's the plan?"

Old Taoist Qi Yuan murmured, forcibly recalling the route he had taken before;

In a daze and confusion, Qi Yuan found a new path in his confusion.

Ahead, the forest was lush and green, without the common white fog, and the scenery was very ordinary.

Qi Yuan moved forward cautiously, and soon made a new discovery this time.

A wooden sign was hung on the treetop in front, with three big characters written on it:

【be lost? 】

Qi Yuan nodded subconsciously, then trembled, his eyes full of vigilance.

Why does this handwriting look so familiar?

Old Taoist Qi Yuan stared at the wooden sign for a while, and saw another wooden sign hanging on the tree behind him. He took two steps forward. The surrounding scenery changed slightly, but the wooden sign behind him was still there.

There was another sentence written on the wooden sign...

[Why are you here at Xiaoqiong Peak? 】

"Pindao lives here!"

Qi Yuan scolded angrily, but his hands couldn't help but tremble.

Could it be...

Is this the rumored time gap?

According to ancient legends, an innate creature entered a canyon and emerged from the other end of the canyon tens of thousands of years later, unaware of the changes in time.

Could it be that this kind of ridiculous thing also happened to Pindao?

The Xiao Qiongfeng at this time is no longer the Xiao Qiongfeng when he was still there? Is this Xiao Qiongfeng that has passed thousands and hundreds of years?

Seeing that there was another wooden sign behind him, Qi Yuan stepped forward again following the wooden sign. When he stood in front of the next wooden sign, the surrounding scenery would change slightly, as if he was shifting positions, which was exactly the transformation of the formation.

After the wooden signs, there are wooden signs.

And the handwriting written on the wooden signs became more and more familiar to Old Taoist Qi Yuan...

It was as if there was a dark shadow following him, asking questions quietly in his ears, driving him closer to a trap, but he didn't dare to retreat.

[Your Majesty, are you a member of my Duxian Sect? 】

[This formation is only for protecting the important area of ​​the alchemy room, and it complies with the regulations of this sect]

Alchemy room? It seems that I have vaguely heard my disciple talk about it.

[Your Majesty, did you break into Xiaoqiong Peak without permission? 】

Do you still need to break in? Pindao is the peak master of Xiaoqiong Peak!

[Please do not destroy any plants or trees here. This road leads to an open space without soundproofing array]

Eh? Is this the exit left by the people who set up the formation?

[This is a guide sign to make up the numbers]

[The open space is just ahead]

[Here we are, please take three steps forward]

Qi Yuan paused, held his breath subconsciously, looked at a big tree in front of him, and took three more steps forward with some suspicion.

The scenery in front of him changed again. An open space surrounded by trees appeared in front of Qi Yuan. The ground was covered with fallen leaves. There was a low table and a bucket of spiritual spring next to it.

"What...what is this place?"

Seeing a wooden sign in front of him, Qi Yuan walked over and looked at the handwriting written on the wooden sign that he was very familiar with but could not remember where he had seen it...

[Excuse me, please wait here. If Pindao fails to arrive in time, it should be at a critical moment of retreat or elixir refining.

If you can't wait any longer, you can use your immortal power to shout outside for help, help, etc.

Xiao Qiongfeng sincerely welcomes your visit, but next time please come directly to the door and don't stray near the alchemy room again.

Qi Yuan, the master of Xiaoqiong Peak, here to pay my respects]

Qi Yuan's hands trembled and he took two steps back, but his back hit a tree trunk.

The escape route had been blocked unconsciously.

‘This, is this set up by Pindao himself? ’

Old Taoist Qi Yuan's eyes widened, as if he had seen a ghost. The slight drunkenness that was still there disappeared in an instant. He glanced around and felt a little dizzy.

Could it be that Pindao got into trouble?

No, that's not right. Is this because Zhuo Xian is unclear?

When we were drinking just now, a senior in the sect reminded him that Zhuoxian was easily infected by the earth's energy, and that the Taoist heart was prone to demonic obstacles.

Could it be that Pindao is just the inner demon of the real Taoist Priest Qi Yuan?

Qi Yuan's hands couldn't help but start to tremble slightly. He rushed to the wooden sign again and looked at the words written on the wooden sign, his eyes full of disbelief.

The writing on these wooden signs...

Isn't it exactly, isn't it his own handwriting!

His feet slipped, and Old Taoist Qi Yuan sat down on the ground full of fallen leaves. His eyes were dull and distracted, and his long gray hair was a little messy.

The passage of time, the evil spirits, the inner demons...

The passage of time, the evil spirits, the inner demons...

"Who is Pindao? Is Pindao really just his own inner demon?

No, this is impossible. Pindao is definitely not a demon, Pindao is Qiyuan.

I am Qi Yuan, Qi Yuan is me, I have stepped into the gap of time, I cannot be the inner demon!

No, no!

no no……

No--"

Old Taoist Qi Yuan held his head with both hands, suddenly raised his head and shouted, startling birds flying far and near on Xiao Qiong Peak, and also caused several figures who happened to pass by in the distance to look at Xiao Qiong Peak curiously. jungle.

Suddenly, a slightly surprised female voice came from the side:

"Master?"

Qi Yuan's shouting stopped suddenly, and he asked in a trembling voice: "Ling'e?"

"Master, are you trapped in the formation?"

"Are you really Ling'e?"

"Yes, Master, can this disciple still make mistakes?"

"No, no, you may be the inner demon... the teacher's inner demon..."

Outside the formation, Ling'e, who had just arrived, couldn't help but put a hand on her forehead.

It's over, the master was ruined by the senior brother.

She groaned, and immediately had an idea, and said hurriedly: "Don't move around, there are many formations here!

Don't go in the direction of Ling'e's voice either. If you leave that small area, you won't be able to hear the sounds outside!

Disciple, I will go in to find you now!

But the disciple has to spend time to find the formation path to your location. Only senior brother can unlock the formation here. This place is all arranged by senior brother. Master, please wait for a while. "

Old Taoist Qi Yuan was slightly startled, and soon heard the sound of 'Ouch' coming from outside.

What did your little disciple say just now?

Senior brother?

Is this the arrangement made by Changshou?

Old Taoist Qi Yuan's eyes were full of doubts, and because he was lost in thought, he gradually calmed down.

Half an hour later, Lan Ling'e, covered in grass and fallen leaves, with a bruised nose and face, appeared in front of the master with a wry smile, and bowed to the master.

"Master, this disciple is here to see you."

Qi Yuan couldn't help but stare at Lan Ling'e. Lan Ling'e calmly cast a few small spells, which were all taught by Qi Yuan's Taoist before.

"Master, it's really Ling'e..."

Qi Yuan breathed a sigh of relief and said with a wry smile: "What on earth is going on?"

"Well," Ling'e bit her lip and pondered a few times, thinking about how to help her senior brother get through.

She quickly took out another treasure bag, walked quickly to the low table, took out two cushions and a teapot and a porcelain cup, and said with a smile: "Master, please come over and have a rest first, and allow me to report slowly."

There was still some doubt in Qi Yuan's eyes, but when he sat on the cushion and looked at Lan Ling'e's familiar tea-making technique, the doubts in his heart disappeared by a few percent.

The forest was quiet, except for the rustle of the treetops when the breeze blew;

Looking up from here, because the surrounding trees cover it, it seems that only this small piece of blue sky is left...

Suddenly, the old man understood something.

The old Taoist looked around everywhere and asked in a low voice: "Is this all arranged by your senior brother?"

Ling'e said: "It should be said that it was designed by senior brother, and it was arranged by Master Jiujiu of Potian Peak, a true immortal."

"Oh, no wonder," Qi Yuan said with a bitter smile, "It turns out that Junior Sister Jiujiu helped with the decoration."

"Actually, Uncle Jiujiu doesn't know the formation at all. It's the senior brother who tells him word by word, put this here, put that there."

Ling'e paused for a moment, then lowered her head and said, "Master, have you really not noticed it all this time?"

Qi Yuan picked up the tea cup and took a sip. It was indeed his favorite chrysanthemum and lotus seed tea.

"What did you find? What do you like about your senior brother?"

"Ouch!" Ling'e's pretty face turned red instantly.

Old Taoist Qi Yuan frowned and stared, "Don't you like longevity?"

"This...can't say it directly, the disciple will be embarrassed..."

Ling'e quickly calmed down and said softly: "Senior brother, he is actually very extraordinary."

"oh?"

Old Taoist Qi Yuan's eyes were somewhat doting, and he said with a smile: "In your eyes, your senior brother is naturally extraordinary."

"No, Master," Ling'e raised her hand to straighten a strand of hair beside her ear, "Senior brother, he is actually much more promising than Master thinks.

For example, the formations here are all formed by the basic formations.

Although the senior brother asked Uncle Jiujiu to help, there would be no difference if the senior brother could arrange the decoration here alone. "

Old Taoist Qi Yuan was suddenly startled again.

Ling'e continued:

"For more than ten years since I started as a disciple, my senior brother has taught me a lot.

Many times, after Master has given a sermon, the disciples are confused and do not understand the meaning. The senior brother will come over and explain the essence to the disciples.

Often, the senior brother can reveal the true meaning with just one or two sentences, so the disciple can make such progress. "

Qi Yuan frowned and looked at Ling'e, not knowing what to say for a moment.

Ling'e said softly: "Also, Master, what level of cultivation is this disciple's current level?"

Qi Yuan Fu Xu pondered twice and said: "The ninth level of Qi refining?"

Ling'e raised her sword fingers with both hands and made a complicated seal. The breath around her body suddenly surged out, "Then, what now?"

Qi Yuan's eyes widened, "Fifth level of divine transformation! Ling'e, when are you going!"

Ling'e made a silent gesture, formed a seal with her hands again, and the aura around her body quickly became restrained.

She whispered: "This is the [Turtle Breath Calming Qi Technique] passed down to me by my senior brother. It can hide one's own cultivation. As long as the body is not touched by people at the true immortal level, one can hide it and simulate what one wants to reveal." realm."

Old Taoist Qi Yuan's face was filled with shock.

"Master, my senior brother has been a monk for a hundred years. You have spent most of your time in seclusion and practicing to reach the Immortal Realm. Your understanding and care of your senior brother is really too little."

Ling'e picked up the tea cup, holding the bottom of the cup with two slender fingers of her left hand. She held the tea cup in her right hand and took a sip. There was no hesitation in her eyes.

"While senior brother was tricked by Master Jiuwu and went to the East China Sea, I want to make these things clear to you, Master.

The disciple has been watching from the sidelines as his senior brother has done many things for you, Master, but Master, you don’t know anything about it, and every time you see your senior brother, you either scold him or tell him how unbearable he is.

Master, senior brother is probably not far away from becoming an immortal now.

As for the Immortal Fusion Pill that you used for your military solution, Master, if the disciples expected it to be true, it was made from the Immortal Solution Grass that the senior brother personally dug up from the depths of Luzhou in Beiju during the training conference a few years ago, and then refined it.

Master, you are worried about your catastrophe of immortality, and my senior brother has been most concerned about your catastrophe, and has made a lot of efforts for this.

Master, what you see is only the Master Birdcage... In fact, Senior Brother has made more than ten treasures to resist the catastrophe in the past two years, but they were all ineffective in subsequent tests.

The only few times the disciple saw his senior brother being upset was when he squatted in front of the treasures that had been damaged by lightning;

The only time a disciple would feel nervous when he saw his senior brother was when he was going through a tribulation before his master. "

Ling'e looked at Old Taoist Qi Yuan, but the latter's eyes were blank, and he was sitting there as if he had turned into wood.

"Master, senior brother is really extraordinary. This is not a disciple's lie..."

Slowly, Ling'e told what she knew about her senior brother.

Although she would hide a lot because of her senior brother's instructions, there was nothing exaggerated;

Qi Yuan gradually returned to his senses, and asked Ling'e to perform the Turtle Breath Calming Technique again, and then looked at the many elixirs and poisonous pills that Ling'e carried. The old Taoist sat there again and fell into deep thought.

After a while.

Qi Yuan asked uneasily: "Ling'e, you said that as a teacher... what should I do as a teacher? When your senior brother comes back, go and praise him?"

"Master, you'd better just pretend that my disciple didn't say anything to you today, and that this didn't happen, and just do whatever you do on weekdays," Ling'e said with a smile, "Senior Brother will come in to pick us up later, so just take the Slap him on the butt with a whisk...

But just don't use too much force.

Every time Master wants to hit Senior Brother, it is actually Senior Brother who deliberately exposes his flaws so that Master can catch you. "

Qi Yuan had a few black lines hanging on his forehead and said with a wry smile: "Is it so unbearable to be a teacher?"

"Uh," Ling'e hurriedly shouted, "Master, you are so wise and powerful! Your magic is boundless!"

Qi Yuan hesitated and said: "Then, as a teacher, I will pretend that I didn't hear what you said?"

"Senior brother, what he wants most is for others not to pay attention to him, and then he can make a fortune silently," Ling'e puffed up her lips, "Now the disciples have to deliberately act stupid in front of senior brother. They should pretend to be confused. Confused, otherwise he will definitely be gradually alienated..."

Ling'e changed the topic and began to talk about how Li Changshou bullied her, a junior sister, in an attempt to alleviate the depression in her master's heart.

Soon, Qi Yuan was laughed at by her and became full of energy again.

"You! Hahaha!"

Qi Yuan stood up and walked aside, looking at the various arrangements of the formations that he could not figure out, so as not to let his little apprentice see the moist corners of his eyes at this time.

"As a master, I am too selfish. I just want to escape the tribulation and retreat.

Alas, after Master brought your senior brother in and taught him the exercises, he has been in retreat, and has been in retreat.

After surviving the catastrophe this time, I originally wanted to guide your senior brothers and sisters in their practice, but I found that my teacher is the one who has always been cared for.

That's all, that's all, Master doesn't care anymore, just don't care too much.

If there are disciples like this, as a teacher, I can also comfort all the masters in the Xiaoqiong Peak lineage! "

After saying this, Qi Yuan turned to look at Ling'e and said with a smile: "Besides, my master's little disciple is now so sensible."

Ling'e smiled sheepishly and murmured in a low voice: "In order to be worthy of my senior brother, I have been working very hard."

"oh?"

"Uh, Master, the tea has gone cold!

Master, please do not expose what the disciple said today! "

"Okay, okay, let's pretend to be stupid together and act in front of your senior brother." Qi Yuan sat back behind the low table and took out the whisk, "I will teach your senior brother a lesson later, and you can also join in and try your hand." .”

Ling'e's eyes suddenly lit up: "Is it okay, Master?"

"Of course, after treating my master like a monkey for so many years, of course I have to punish him!"

Lan Ling'e immediately cheered and was eager to try.

Qi Yuan said again: "Don't worry, I will go into seclusion to study the Zhuoxian cultivation method later. From now on, you brothers and sisters will just have to deal with this little Qiong Peak."

After saying that, Qi Yuan looked at the tea in front of him and the old face reflected in it, and couldn't help but shake his head and chuckle.

really……

Wonderful, indescribable.
