Chapter 131 Bamboo Pavilion
Jin Renfeng was somewhat puzzled.
"Shopkeeper Lu, I saw before that you had no intention of letting Miss Lu learn Taoism, why did you suddenly have this idea?"
Shopkeeper Lu smiled bitterly and said,
"If my daughter were just an ordinary person, I would certainly hope that she could stay with me and live in peace!"
"I don't want her to fight monsters either."
But now it’s different!”
Shopkeeper Lu sighed and pointed in the direction of the town.
"Because of the bronze gong, Xiaobo has long been suspected of being a monster. Now that the cat monster has appeared, those people will definitely blame it on Xiaobo."
"Rather than letting Xiaobo stay by my side and be looked down upon, it would be better to let her go to the Taoist sect to seek a future."
"It just so happens that she has superior talents, so she must be qualified to join the Dao League."
Shopkeeper Lu raised the cloth bag in his hand and said respectfully,
"This hundred taels of silver is a thank you gift to the young Taoist priest. If my daughter can join the Taoist Alliance, I will also give her a gift of apprenticeship!"
Jin Renfeng fell into deep thought.
Naturally, he would be a hundred percent willing to allow this kind of cultivator to join Shenhuoshan Villa.
Those who reincarnate to continue their relationship all carry the magical powers of the great demons.
As long as he practices Taoism seriously, he can use this magical power for his own benefit.
Due to the difference in lifespan between humans and monsters, among humans, a few decades of cultivation is already considered top-notch.
However, the demonic power of monsters is measured in hundreds of years. Any big monster that can transform into a human form must have at least several hundred years of cultivation.
In comparison, the human race's magic power is almost pitifully weak.
If Lu Zhubo can refine the demonic power in herself, she will definitely become the top master in this alliance in the future.
Except for a handful of geniuses, no one will be her match.
However, the problem is that Jin Renfeng's agreement does not mean that the master agrees.
Even though he is the chief disciple of Shenhuoshan Villa, it does not mean that he can take over the master's job and accept disciples on his master's behalf.
This is also the reason why he had never thought of bringing Lu Zhuobo back to Shenhuoshan Villa before Manager Lu took the initiative to propose it.
But just because he has no solution doesn't mean others have no solution either.
Thinking of this, Jin Renfeng couldn't help but look at Qin Lan beside him.
If I want the master to agree, I still have to find a way from my junior sister.
"Don't worry! I'll take care of this matter!"
Noticing Jin Renfeng's gaze, Qin Lan immediately took the responsibility and agreed.
"I think this young lady is quite pitiful. Since she is willing to become my disciple, I will convince my father to agree."
Jin Renfeng breathed a sigh of relief and said to Shopkeeper Lu,
"With my junior sister's words, there will be no problem!"
"My junior sister is Master's youngest daughter. Master loves her the most. This is a piece of cake for her."
"Thank you, young Taoist priest, and thank you, young lady!"
Shopkeeper Lu thanked him repeatedly.
Then he raised his hands and presented the silver in his hand.
Jin Renfeng pushed the silver back.
"My sect does not accept gifts for conquering demons. Besides, Shenhuoshan Villa does not charge any apprenticeship fees. Manager Lu gave me a gift. If I accept it, I will be scolded by my master!"
Seeing him say this, Shopkeeper Lu didn't feel comfortable sending him off anymore.
"Thank you, senior brothers and sisters!"
Lu Zhubo said softly.
"Okay, okay!" Qin Lan puffed out her chest and waved her hand.
Jin Renfeng laughed and said,
"The name 'Junior Sister Lu' is a little wrong. This Senior Brother is right, but this Senior Sister is wrong!"
"Junior sister is the daughter of Master. Although she has already started practicing, she is not yet included in the rank of disciples!"
"If you are admitted, Qin Lan should call you Senior Sister!"
Seeing Jin Renfeng reveal the truth, Qin Lan, who was originally happy to hear someone calling her senior sister, immediately became depressed. She kicked Jin Renfeng's calf in dissatisfaction.
The inn was destroyed and the group had no place to rest.
Afterwards, under the guidance of Shopkeeper Lu, the group went to a nearby village to rest for a night.
The next morning, Jin Renfeng set out again.
. . . . . . .
"Junior Brother Jin, this flying technique requires the unity of man and magic weapon, not just standing on it."
Standing on the Ruyi stick, Qin Lan narrated slowly.
Because the Golden Phoenix's inability to fly would delay the trip too much, Qin Lan began to teach the Golden Phoenix the art of flying.
"When flying, you have to use the connection of magic power to merge yourself with the magic weapon. In this way, when the magic weapon flies, you are also flying."
"Even if you don't stand on it, but just hold the magic weapon, you can be carried flying by it! Your body is stable."
"Then why do you always shake when you fly, Junior Sister?"
Jin Renfeng asked in confusion.
Qin Lan felt a little embarrassed.
"I am not proficient in this spell yet, and I cannot integrate it with the magic weapon."
"I understand. It's just that I'm not skilled enough." Jin Renfeng suddenly realized.
Seeing him speak so directly, Qin Lan couldn't help but grit her teeth.
Afterwards, following Qin Lan's instructions, Jin Renfeng tried to use his internal energy to fly.
With just one exercise of energy, Jin Renfeng soared into the air on his sword.
Although his body was shaky and his flying was very awkward, he was almost as good as Qin Lan.
"No way! This is too fast, Senior Brother, how did you do it?"
Qin Lan was stunned.
"I just tried it once according to what my junior sister said." Jin Renfeng said lightly.
He is extremely talented, and since he started practicing, no martial arts or magic has been able to stop him.
Qin Lan stopped talking, she felt very upset.
Thinking back, it took her a long time to learn the art of flying, but this senior fellow disciple mastered it in just one go.
In comparison, doesn't this make her seem useless?
A wave of sadness rose in Qin Lan's heart. He immediately dropped the Ruyi Stick, jumped onto Jin Renfeng's sword, and kicked his calf to vent his anger.
Jin Renfeng felt puzzled. After they flew for a while, Jin Renfeng gradually realized that the weakness of his inner strength still existed.
Just like when controlling a magic weapon, the reaction of the magic weapon also has a high delay when flying with a sword.
The speed of turning is very slow and flexible movements cannot be performed.
However, Jin Renfeng didn't care. It was just a transitional period anyway. It didn't matter whether his internal strength was flexible or not, as long as he could use it.
After flying for an hour, Jin Renfeng's internal energy was exhausted.
Qin Lan then took the magic weapon and flew with the two of them.
In this way, the two of them took turns flying and completed a day's journey.
. . . . . .
At nightfall, the two men arrived at the bank of the Huai River.
Qin Lan looked at the surrounding environment and suddenly shouted,
"I know where my sister went!"
After saying this, she pointed to the east and said,
"There is a bamboo pavilion by the water over there. Let's go there. My sister must be there!"
Hearing this, Jin Renfeng rode his flying sword and headed eastward along the Huai River.
After flying for a few miles, a bamboo pavilion appeared in front of us.
"Dad brought us here last time. I think the scenery here is familiar. I think my sister must have come here."
Qin Lan chuckled.
Jin Renfeng nodded, put down the flying sword, and landed next to the bamboo pavilion.
Qin Lan jumped off the flying sword and rushed into the bamboo pavilion.
Jin Renfeng followed closely behind.
As he walked, he scanned the scene around him.
"I think this is where Junior Sister will be pledged her love in the future, the Huaishui Bamboo Pavilion."
Looking at the bamboo pavilion, he guessed in his heart.
As the two entered the pavilion, they saw a figure leaning against a pillar nearby.
It was Huai Zhu who had disappeared before.
"elder sister-"
Qin Lan called out and rushed to Huai Zhu.
"Junior sister!"
Jin Renfeng walked to Huaizhu and called out as well.
Hearing someone calling her, Huaizhu slowly raised her head.
Her eyes were dull, her lips were cracked, her face was haggard, and she looked as if she had lost her soul.
Jin Renfeng frowned. It had only been two days since they last saw each other, so how come Junior Sister looked so haggard?
"Sister! Are you okay?" Qin Lan called out worriedly.
She walked forward, held Huaizhu's hand and shook it gently.
However, Huaizhu closed his eyes and his body fell limply.
"Sister!" Qin Lan exclaimed.
Jin Renfeng flew forward and hugged the unconscious Huaizhu.
"Sister, what's wrong?"
Seeing Huaizhu faint, Qin Lan was so scared that her face turned pale.
Jin Renfeng pressed her hand on Huaizhu's wrist to check her pulse.
As the saying goes, medicine and martial arts are inseparable. After experiencing the world of Smiling Proud Wanderer, Jin Renfeng has also dabbled in medical skills.
After a checkup, he felt relieved.
"Senior Brother Jin, how is my sister?" Qin Lan asked worriedly.
Jin Renfeng shook his head.
"Don't worry, Junior Sister Huaizhu is fine. She just fainted from hunger."
"This girl has not eaten or drunk anything for two days and two nights, and has not slept a day. She has also flown so far, it would be strange if she is not exhausted."
After hearing the reason, Qin Lan looked strange.
When she saw her sister faint, she thought it was some earth-shattering event, but she didn't expect the reason to be so simple.
Jin Renfeng was also a little confused.
Isn’t it just about marrying into the villa and living there in the future?
This Shenhuoshan Villa is not some devil's cave or monster cave, it is Huaizhu's own home after all.
Is it so hard to accept living in your own home?
It's really incomprehensible that he is getting angry with his body.
Afterwards, Jin Renfeng asked Qin Lan to take out the dry food sent by Manager Lu, mix the dry food with water, and feed it to Huaizhu in small mouthfuls.
After eating some liquid food, Huaizhu's complexion looked much better.
Jin Renfeng asked Qin Lan to support Huai Zhu, while he sat cross-legged behind Huai Zhu, gathering his internal energy in his palms, preparing to use it to clear Huai Zhu's qi and blood.
However, at this moment, a figure suddenly appeared beside them.
Jin Renfeng looked up and saw the person coming with gray hair and blue clothes. It was his master Dongfang Guyue.
"Master!"
Seeing the person coming, Jin Renfeng stood up in surprise.
Dongfang Guyue waved his hand to stop Jin Renfeng's actions.
A golden light flew out from his palm and landed on Huaizhu.
The powerful magic power directly lifted Huaizhu into the air.
Golden light is everywhere and a warm atmosphere is spreading.
Under the healing power of mana.
Huaizhu's physical condition began to improve rapidly.
After more than ten breaths, Dongfang Guyue finished his practice and stood up, and Huaizhu also slowly fell down.
Jin Renfeng hugged Huaizhu and saw that her face was rosy and her breathing was steady. She had completely recovered.
"When she wakes up, don't tell her I was here."
Dongfang Guyue said coldly.
"Dad, since you are worried about my sister, why do you deliberately hide it?" Qin Lan asked puzzled.
