"Zhang Xiaofan!"

Zhang Xiaofan woke up from his dream and opened his eyes. Suddenly, he saw a large mouth and two rows of fangs lying in front of him. He screamed in fright, "Ah!"

"Giggle..." A burst of laughter came from behind.

Zhang Xiaofan finally calmed down, and then he saw clearly that there was a big yellow dog in front of him, which was half a person tall, with shiny yellow hair, lying on his bed, and behind the yellow dog, Tian Ling'er was dressed in red, tightly dressed, and bent over there with a smile.

Zhang Xiaofan stole a glance at the big dog and saw that it had a huge body, sharp fangs, and an old tongue sticking out outside, which was very fierce. He had never seen such a big dog, so he was a little scared. Seeing Tian Linger's smile, he murmured, "Senior sister, what's the matter?"

"What's the matter?" Tian Ling'er said with a smile, suddenly her face turned serious, and she frowned and said loudly, "It's dawn, what are you asking me about? Get up quickly, I'll go up the mountain with you to chop bamboo."

Zhang Xiaofan was stunned and asked curiously, "You want to go too?"

Tian Ling'er said: "Nonsense, disciples of this lineage have to go up the mountain to chop the'Black Festival Bamboo 'for the first three years of entry. I started at the age of ten, and this year is the last year. Hey, are you still in bed?"

Zhang Xiaofan hurriedly replied, carefully bypassed the big dog, got down from the other corner of the bed, and put on his clothes with all hands and feet.

Tian Ling'er shouted: "Then." Throwing a firewood knife over.

Zhang Xiaofan followed it with both hands, and seeing that it was an ordinary firewood knife, it was quite heavy. When he was ready, he said to Tian Ling'er, "Senior sister, do you want to ask senior brother to go with you?"

Tian Ling'er rolled her eyes at him and said, "Didn't you hear me say that only beginner disciples have to do their homework? Now only you and I are going to chop bamboo. Let's go."

After saying that, Zhang Xiaofan didn't move. The big yellow dog on the bed suddenly stood up, jumped out of bed, wagged its tail, barked at Zhang Xiaofan "woof woof" twice, grinned fiercely, and ran out.

Zhang Xiaofan heard it familiar, and remembered that when he came back with the eldest senior brother yesterday, he heard several barks of dogs. It seemed that it was this big yellow dog, and he couldn't help but say to himself: "Qingyun Sect is amazing, even a random dog is much bigger than our village."

He followed Tian Ling'er out of the room and saw that it was still early in the morning. He walked out of the corridor and looked at the back mountain, and there was a hazy fog floating in the mountains in the distance.

These two people and a dog walked towards the back mountain of Dazhu Peak.

Yesterday, Zhang Xiaofan was hugged by Song Daren and walked to the hillside. He only felt that he would arrive soon, and the road would be easy to walk. Unexpectedly, he came here today and only walked halfway, but he found that the slope was getting bigger and bigger, and the journey was much farther than he had imagined.

On the other hand, Tian Ling'er, who was beside her, didn't use the "amber vermilion" today, and still walked with great ease, the red petite figure swaying in the mountain road, extremely brisk. Not to mention the big yellow dog, it was very lively. After a while, it rushed forward, and after a while, it also got into the forest beside the road, and I didn't know what to do. After a while, the sound of grass and trees actually came out from another place, very brisk and excited.

After walking for another half an hour, Zhang Xiaofan was so tired that he was gasping for breath, his legs were sore, and he was exhausted.

Tian Ling'er walked in front. Seeing his appearance, she snorted and said, "It's really useless. Stop and rest."

Zhang Xiaofan hurriedly nodded, sat down, and panted desperately, but the big yellow dog disappeared at this moment, and he didn't know where it went.

Zhang Xiaofan gasped for a while before gradually calming down. He sat on the mountain road and looked down, only to see the big bamboo peak standing tall and tall, and the nearby mountains were a head shorter, quite proud.

"Senior sister, I have something to ask you, I don't know..."

Tian Ling'er heard his somewhat timid words and looked over with a pair of eyes. She felt a burst of pride in her heart. She subconsciously managed her hair with her hands and said solemnly, "You can ask."

"Why do we have to chop bamboo as homework? I thought homework was all about practicing Taoism?"

Tian Ling'er curled her lips and said, "What do you know, the body of a self-cultivator is the most important thing. My mother said that if the body is not good, there will be a supreme magic method, and it will be difficult to practice. Our Qingyun Sect originated from Taoism and places great emphasis on health preservation. When the Taoist method is practiced in the depths, the body is even more important. Take the'Divine Sword Thunder Control True Art ', one of the highest wonders in our Qingyun Sect, for example..."

Zhang Xiaofan's body trembled and his face changed greatly.

Tian Ling'er asked curiously, "What's wrong with you?"

Zhang Xiaofan came back to his senses, his face was cloudy and uncertain, and he said, "No, it's nothing, I heard that this name is so long and powerful."

Tian Ling'er glared at him and said, "Of course it's amazing, this is one of our Qingyun Sect's mountain stunts, and few people can cultivate it. I heard from my father that to use this true art, you must use yourself as a guide, supplemented by a sharp blade of a divine weapon, to attract the nine heavens of divine thunder, and the power of the bright sky is really invincible and powerful."

Zhang Xiaofan sighed and said, "Yes."

Tian Ling'er said again: "Then think about it, although there is a True Art to protect your body, but just how powerful the Heavenly God Thunder is, once an ordinary person comes into contact with it, it will immediately turn into ashes. Although the caster's practice is very deep, but if his health is not good, he will be afraid that he will be killed by the divine thunder for a while, what do you say about being invincible?" She glanced at Zhang Xiaofan and said, "So my father asked you to do this homework for your own good, and you still look reluctant."

Zhang Xiaofan was startled, and hurriedly jumped up and said in a hurry, "There's no such thing, I will never, never dare to show any disrespect to Master, let alone reluctance. Ah, I've had enough rest now, let's go, let's go!"

After saying that, he picked up the firewood knife, Dengdeng Dengdeng took a step forward and ran towards the mountain, but the speed was not slow. Tian Ling'er looked at his back, smiled gently, and followed.

Zhang Xiaofan was out of breath when he finally climbed to the small hillside. Before the bamboo forest, the big yellow dog was lying in front of the forest at an unknown time. When he saw the two of them come up, they barked "woof woof" a few times.

Zhang Xiaofan was stunned for a moment and said, "So fast!"

"Do you mean rhubarb?" Tian Ling'er walked up from behind without blushing.

Zhang Xiaofan pointed at the big dog and said, "Its name is Big Yellow?"

Tian Ling'er said: "Yes, don't underestimate it, it's very powerful."

Zhang Xiaofan murmured, "That's right, looking at its size, I know it has been raised for at least 20 years."

Tian Ling'er said: "How can there be!"

Zhang Xiaofanqi said: "It's not even twenty years old, and rhubarb really grows."

At this time, Rhubarb barked fiercely at Zhang Xiaofan in front of him.

Tian Ling'er said: "I mean how can there be so few years. Uh, let me calculate, it seems that it was available when the fourth senior brother came, that is seventy years, no, the third senior brother said that he was also there when he came, that is ninety-seven years. Ah!" She suddenly called out, which startled Zhang Xiaofan and hurriedly said, "What's wrong?"

Tian Ling'er said happily: "I remember, when I was a child, my mother and father quarreled and said cruel words, saying that she wanted to kill the yellow dog that my father raised from childhood to adulthood and stew dog soup. Father was half angry, and Rhubarb was so scared that he didn't dare to go home for many days!"

Zhang Xiaofan was astonished and said, "Big Yellow doesn't dare to go home?"

Tian Ling'er said, "Yeah, Rhubarb has lived for many, many years, and has become human. Knowing that my mother is powerful, I am afraid that she will really be poisoned, so I slipped away. How is it, is it amazing?"

"Amazing!" Zhang Xiaofan said sincerely, not knowing whether to say rhubarb or admire his wife's skills. He looked at the rhubarb dog more, but rhubarb ignored it, snorted, wagged his tail, turned his head sideways, and lay lazily on the ground.

The two of them had already walked to the bamboo forest, and Zhang Xiaofan said to Tian Ling'er, "Senior sister, when I first arrived at Tongtian Peak, I also saw a big monster that was many times bigger than Big Yellow. I heard from Senior Brother that it was called the'Water Qilin '. Is Big Yellow also a spirit beast like it?"

Tian Ling'er walked into the bamboo forest, shook her head and said, "No, the Spirit Venerable is an ancient exotic beast, a prehistoric spirit species, far superior to rhubarb, and cannot be compared."

As she spoke, she took Zhang Xiaofan through the forest and walked for a while before coming to a place with many thin bamboo. The black bamboo here was usually only the size of a wrist and was very slender.

"This is it. You can chop one every day for the next three months." Tian Ling'er said seriously.

"Only one so thin?" Zhang Xiaofan asked in surprise.

Tian Ling'er snorted and said, "Try cutting it."

Zhang Xiaofan nodded, picked up the firewood knife and walked to a thin bamboo, looked up and down, and slashed it down. Only to hear a crisp sound, the firewood knife was like a stubborn stone, shaking Zhang Xiaofan's palm. The thin bamboo was cut by him, leaned forward, and bounced back a moment later. Zhang Xiaofan couldn't dodge, and was hit hard on the head by the bamboo branch, which was in great pain and left a red mark.

"Giggle..." Tian Ling'er bent over with a smile, and after a while, she said hard, "You can cut it here, I'm going to do my homework." After saying that, she turned and left with a smile.

Zhang Xiaofan touched the place where his face was hurt, and saw that the bamboo had been chopped down, leaving only a faint white mark, so he couldn't help but take a deep breath. This morning, Zhang Xiaofan was facing the black bamboo alone, cutting, chopping, sawing, grinding, pressing, folding, and doing everything he could. After two hours, the sun rose into the air, his whole body was drenched in sweat, and his hands and feet were sore and weak. He actually only made a two-point small mouth of the black bamboo.

At this time, a burst of singing came, Tian Ling'er hummed an unknown tune, and came back bouncing. Seeing Zhang Xiaofan's embarrassed appearance, she looked at the black bamboo again, shook her head, raised the firewood knife, and was about to chop.

Zhang Xiaofan hurriedly said, "Senior Sister, what are you doing?"

Tian Ling'er said impatiently, "I'll help you cut it."

Zhang Xiaofan shook his head vigorously, gasped heavily and said, "No need, thank you, Senior Sister. But this is my homework, I will finish it myself."

Tian Ling'er snorted, pointed at the sun, and said, "Do you know what time it is now?"

Zhang Xiaofan was stubborn, gritted his teeth, and said, "Even if I cut it until it gets dark..."

"i***t!" Tian Ling'er suddenly cursed. Zhang Xiaofan was taken aback and could not speak for a while, so he just stared at this senior sister.

"You don't look at the time, nor do you think about others. You cut until it gets dark, do you want me to accompany you until it gets dark? If you really want to fight for your breath, you should work hard every day in the future, try your best to do your homework in two hours, instead of talking nonsense about cutting until it gets dark!"

As soon as she finished speaking, she took up the knife and dropped it. The sound of the knife broke through the air, and the bamboo fell in response to the sound, which made Zhang Xiaofan's eyes straight.

Tian Ling'er glanced at him and said lightly, "Let's go back." After saying that, he walked out of the forest. Zhang Xiaofan was ashamed and ashamed, and secretly made up his mind that he would work hard in the future and do his homework well.

🥰 🥰 🥰

When he dragged his tired body back to Dazhu Peak's living place, it was already noon, and Tian Ling'er walked to the back of Shoujing Hall without saying a word. Zhang Xiaofan was stunned for a moment, and moved with difficulty to his room. At the entrance of the corridor, he saw his eldest brother Song Daren standing there.

A smile appeared on the corner of Song Daren's mouth, and he said, "How is it, little junior brother, are you tired?"

Zhang Xiaofan forced a smile and shook his head.

Seeing that he was young, Song Daren couldn't help but laugh. He accompanied him to the room first and said, "There is usually hot water in the kitchen. When you come back in the future, you can go to fetch water and wash by yourself.

Zhang Xiaofan was startled and said, "Do you still have homework in the afternoon?"

Seeing his big reaction, Song Daren was stunned for a moment, then woke up and said with a smile: "Oh, I was wrong. In the afternoon, when the disciples of my lineage are practicing Taoism, I will teach you some introductory Taoism from today."

Zhang Xiaofan breathed a sigh of relief, and he was surprised and happy in his heart. He asked quietly, "Senior Brother, those Dao techniques are very powerful, are they difficult to learn?"

Song Daren smiled and said, "When the cultivation reaches the depths, it is naturally very powerful. As for the difficulty of learning, it depends on each person's aptitude and comprehension. But even if the aptitude is poor, it doesn't matter. You also heard what Master said last night: Dao sea is boundless, hard work is a boat. As long as you are willing to persevere and practice hard, no matter how difficult it is, you can achieve it."

Zhang Xiaofan nodded vigorously.

At lunch that day, Tian Buyi asked a few questions about Zhang Xiaofan's homework. Tian Ling'er scolded Zhang Xiaofan, saying that Zhang Xiaofan's face was red and he didn't dare to look up.

Tian Buyi listened to his daughter's words, shook his head again and again, waved his hand at the end, and only said two words: "Eat."

Tian Bunot was too lazy to scold Zhang Xiaofan, but in Zhang Xiaofan's eyes, he felt that his master cared about him very much, but he did not scold him, and his master was extremely magnanimous. He was really a rare teacher in the world. He felt ashamed in his heart, but he didn't dare to say anything more. He only swore in his heart that he would practice hard in the future to repay his teacher's kindness.

After the meal, Tian Buyi took his eight-character steps as usual, swaggered twice, and then went back to his Shoujing Hall. The other disciples walked towards Taiji Cave one after another, only Song Daren and Zhang Xiaofan came to the room together and said, "Junior Brother, this school's Taoist method is very fundamental. If you are a beginner, I will teach you basic Taoist techniques first. After you remember it well, practice it yourself. If there is anything unclear, come and ask me, do you understand?"

Zhang Xiaofan nodded again and again, excited in his heart.

Song Daren's face changed, and he said sternly, "I have to tell you something else: this strange technique is profound and wonderful, and there are many evil demons and demons. You need to make a solemn oath. After you have completed your studies, if you are not a disciple of this sect, you will never pass it on to outsiders."

Zhang Xiaofan's heart moved, and he was suddenly in a trance, but then he was awake, and Xiaoxiao's face had a resolute look, and he said, "Yes. Heaven is above, if disciple Zhang Xiaofan leaks the secrets of Qingyun Sect's Taoist method in the future, he will be hit by five thunderbolts and die without a burial place."

Song Daren smiled and nodded, let him sit down at the table, first teach him how to meditate and meditate, and then roughly talk about the meridians and essence of the human body, and finally pass on his "Taiji Xuanqing Dao" first-level practice method.

"Taiji Xuanqing Dao" is the foundation of all kinds of wonderful techniques in Qingyun Sect. It was comprehended by Qingyun Zi on the nameless ancient scroll two thousand years ago. After the intensive research of the masters of Qingyun Sect in the past dynasties, today, it is a supreme Dao method that has conquered heaven and earth and is mysterious and incomparable.

There were three realms of Yuqing, Shangqing, and Taiqing in Taiji Xuanqing Dao. The disciples of Qingyun Sect, including many intelligent people, could not break through the Yuqing Realm in their lifetime, but this was the case, but the cultivation at the top of the Yuqing Realm was rare in the world.

In the Azure Cloud Sect, there were close to a thousand people, but those who could break through the Jade Clear Realm and enter the Upper Qing Realm, led by the head of Dao Xuan Zhenren, were only a few dozen people. But with only a few dozen people, the Azure Cloud Sect was one of the most powerful and deepest sects in today's cultivation. As for the legendary Supreme Realm Taiqing Realm, it was said that only the wizard Qingye Ancestor, who was not born back then, had cultivated it.
