Chapter 278 I...I’m here to pay homage to Elder Shu (please vote for me)
The entrance to the reception courtyard.
When Chu Ning's figure fell, he saw an old man standing in front of the door with a smile.
Is this the elder of Luoshan Sect who is responsible for reception?
Before coming, Chu Ning had already learned about the Luoshan Sect. The Luoshan Sect was a small sect with a history of only more than a thousand years, and it has only been passed down to the third generation.
The leader of Luoshan Sect is in the late stage of Yuanying, while the elders are in the middle or early stage of Yuanying. The core disciples are mainly Golden Elixir disciples, and there are also some foundation-building monks who have just started.
After understanding the situation of the Luoshan Sect, Chu Ning knew that this was the basic situation of the Dan Domain. The Dan Domain consisted more of these small sects and higher sects. Super sects like the Danshan Sect, for many monks in the Dan Domain It is an unattainable goal.
However, even if it is a small sect, Chu Ning cannot force his way in. The Luoshan Sect is protected by formations, and there is also a sect leader from the late Yuan Ying period who is in charge. If he breaks in by force, it will easily cause misunderstandings.
"Welcome fellow Taoist to my Luoshan Sect, I am Chen Qian." The old man spoke first.
In Chen Qian's mind, the mid-stage Nascent Soul strongman in front of him looked unfamiliar. He should not be a monk from this area of Luoning City.
Chen Qian had seen all the Nascent Soul monks in the area around Luoning City, so the man in front of him was a strong man from other places.
"Fellow Daoist Chen, I am Chu Ning, from the Danshan Sect. I came to your sect to meet my friend Shu Wenruan."
Chu Ning went straight to the point, but his words made Chen Qian open his mouth slightly. Even though he was a powerful Nascent Soul, Chen Qian couldn't control his emotions at this moment.
"Danshan Zong Chu Ning?"
Ji Youli, who took the last step to the door, heard his master's trembling voice. His eyes fell on Chu Ning, but he felt a little confused in his heart.
Who is this person that makes the master so excited?
He knew about Danshan Sect, one of the super sects in the Dan Realm, but even if he came from a super sect, his master shouldn't be so excited.
"It turned out to be Fellow Daoist Chu. Fellow Daoist Chu made a sensation at the newcomer competition in Dan City. When I heard about it afterwards, I was extremely regretful that I missed the opportunity to go to Dan City to see Fellow Daoist Chu because of seclusion."
Chen Qian was very excited because Chu Ning was an alchemist of the same era as him, and Chu Ning caused a sensation in the entire Alchemy City after the newcomer competition.
Chen Qian would not suspect that Chu Ning's identity was false. Several other elders in the sect had gone to Dan City to watch the competition with their own eyes, or through the broadcast of Sihai Commercial Bank.
Pretending to be a well-known figure in the Dan Realm like Chu Ning would only be done by someone who is stupid and looking for death.
"Young Daoist Chen is exaggerating. It's just a competition."
Chu Ning smiled slightly. This was the benefit of being famous. Even though he was in the middle stage of Nascent Soul, his influence in the Dan Realm was comparable to that of the average god-transformation expert.
Chu Ning also saw the doubtful look on Ji Youli's face who was standing behind Chen Qian, and a strange idea suddenly came to his mind.
In my previous life, there was often a saying about the so-called has-been celebrities. In the eyes of these young people, I am afraid that I am a has-been.
The new competition ended a few years ago, and the idols in the eyes of these young people are several first-class players in this competition.
As for myself, to use a popular saying in my previous life, those who know me were all born 100 years ago in Chu Yuanli, and the youngest ones are over three hundred years old.
"This is no small competition."
Chen Qian answered, but then he saw that Chu Ning didn't want to talk to him too much, so he ended the topic.
"Fellow Daoist Chu is here to attend Elder Shu's funeral?"
funeral?
Chu Ning's body trembled, so she was still late, and Senior Brother Shu left.
"Fellow Daoist Chen, can you take me to Senior Brother Shu's place?"
"good."
Chen Qian did not refuse, but he was moved in his heart. Chu Ning called Elder Shu his senior brother, which showed that the relationship between Chu Ning and Elder Shu was extraordinary.
Chu Ning is a disciple of the Danshan Sect and is not from the same sect as Elder Shu. However, Chu Ning calls Elder Shu his senior brother, which shows that Chu Ning has great respect for Elder Shu.
"I'm afraid Elder Sun's idea will come to nothing this time."
Chen Qian took Chu Ning towards the mountain, and Ji Youli, who was standing behind, was thinking about what he should do, when he saw his master stopped and said to Ji Youli: "Disciple, go inform the sect master. , there are distinguished guests coming."
When Chu Ning came to Luoshan Sect, he could transmit the message to the sect leader himself, but he specifically asked his disciples to notify him, just to give his disciples a chance.
…
…
Mountainside yard.
The atmosphere was very solemn at this moment. Qi Chengli and several other junior brothers and sisters looked at Zhang Qinqin with dissatisfaction.
"Third Junior Sister, you should know that even if you persist, it will be useless. Do you think the sect master and other elders will care about a foundation-building disciple?"
Qi Chengli's voice became fierce: "You will only harm everyone!"
"Third Senior Sister, what Senior Brother said is right. Don't we want Master to be buried in glory? But the current situation does not allow us to do so."
"Second Senior Brother and Fourth Senior Brother's medicine shop was robbed. I went to the medicine hall a few days ago to pick up this month's elixirs. The medicine hall didn't have enough elixirs, so I was told to go back and get them a few days later."
Cao Ying smiled bitterly and said: "Although Master is gone, under normal circumstances the deacons of the sect would not treat us like this. Someone gave these deacons an order. I don't need to say who gave the order behind the scenes, senior brother and senior sister. You should know."
Elder Sun!
The only one who allowed those deacons to make things difficult for them was Elder Sun.
"Even if we report this matter to the sect now, the other elders will not care about it, and the sect master will not care about these trivial matters. To put it bluntly, the sect cannot lack Elder Sun, but it does not lack us disciples."
"Third Junior Sister, Senior Brother and Junior Sister are right. I think Master would agree to what we did if he knew what we were going through."
There was a wavering look on Zhang Qinqin's face, because she knew that what her senior brother and junior sister said was the truth, and if she insisted on it, it might be fruitless.
Qi Chengli saw the wavering look on Zhang Qinqin's face and immediately stepped up and said: "Third junior sister, the master has been so kind to us, how can we want the master to be buried like this? It is forced by the current situation. When we break through to Nascent Soul one day, Today’s shame must be washed away!”
"I agreed."
After a long time, Zhang Qinqin replied in a low voice. She also saw the joy in the eyes of senior brother Qi Chengli and others after she finished speaking.
"You go and tell Deacon Wang, I will accompany the master in the end."
Zhang Qinqin looked at the master lying on the bed. The master was a powerful Nascent Soul. Even if he passed away, his body would not rot so quickly and he still maintained a peaceful smile.
"I'll notify Deacon Wang!"
After Cao Ying finished speaking, she walked out of the inner room, but Zhang Qinqin suddenly knelt down at this moment.
Bang bang bang!
"Master, I'm sorry for you!"
yard.
Wang Jiren sat leisurely on the stone table. He believed that Qi Chengli and others would make the right choice.
These people are not talented in cultivation, so Elder Shu is a bad guy and will accept these people as his disciples. Now that Elder Shu is gone, if these people don't know good and evil, there are many ways to deal with them.
If you just arrange a few hard jobs to do, your whole life will be wasted. If you dare to refuse or run away, you will be treason and the end will be death.
"Deacon Wang, I persuaded Senior Sister to agree. In order not to delay Senior Brother Sun Ming's wedding, Master's funeral will be held in secret."
As soon as she stepped out of the inner room, Cao Ying shouted loudly. In order to please Deacon Wang and Elder Sun, she even took the credit for persuading Zhang Qinqin to herself.
"Don't talk nonsense. What does this matter have to do with Junior Brother Sun Ming?"
It's a pity that instead of making Wang Jiren happy, her words made Wang Jiren's face suddenly darken.
There are some things that everyone knows very well, but they must never be spoken out.
"Yes, yes, it has nothing to do with Senior Brother Sun Ming. I was confused." Cao Yong looked bitter and quickly defended: "We don't think the master's funeral needs to be a big one."
After listening to Cao Ying's words, the gloomy look on Wang Jiren's face disappeared.
Now that the goal has been achieved, there is no need to stay here. Qi Chengli and others will not make any progress in the sect in the future, and they are destined not to have many opportunities to interact with each other in this life.
Wang Jiren stepped towards the courtyard door, but as soon as he took the step forward, he was stunned for a moment because two figures walked in from the courtyard door.
"Chen...Elder Chen."
Wang Jiren didn't expect to meet Elder Chen here. Elder Chen was responsible for the reception of the sect. How could he appear here?
And who is this person next to Elder Chen?
Seeing this man's expressionless face, he felt a little chilly for some reason.
Chen Qian had a helpless expression on his face. He didn't expect that it would be such a coincidence that when he brought Chu Ning here, he would encounter Wang Jiren forcing Elder Shu's disciple.
With his and Chu Ning's consciousness, what happened in this courtyard, including the inner room, had already been clearly seen.
"Fellow Daoist Chu, this..."
"Thank you, Fellow Daoist Chen, for bringing me here."
Chu Ning interrupted Chen Qian's words and looked at Cao Ying, who was a little confused, and Qi Chengli and others who came out after hearing the noise. Chu Ning suddenly smiled.
The letter that Senior Brother Shu wrote to him did not mention many other things. He only mentioned one thing, which was that he hoped that he could help take care of his disciples.
"Disciples like me are not very talented and are not taken seriously in the sect. I am afraid that I will be bullied by my fellow sects when I leave. I hope that Junior Brother Chu can take care of me."
In Brother Shu's letter, it is a bit exaggerated to say that he will be left alone before his death, but his love and care for these disciples is clearly evident on the page.
Seeing Chu Ning laughing, Chen Qian felt something in his heart. Although they were both at the Nascent Soul realm, the aura that Chu Ning was exuding at this moment made him feel a little frightened.
"What are you still doing? This is your master's best friend during his lifetime, fellow Daoist Chu from Danshan Sect."
Chen Qian saw Qi Chengli and the others walking out of the inner room with confused expressions on their faces, and quickly reminded them.
"You...are you Senior Chu?"
When Qi Chengli and others heard Chen Qian's words, their eyes lit up and their expressions became excited.
They all knew the identity of Senior Chu from Danshan Sect, but they did not expect that Senior Chu was really good friends with their master, and they were not ordinary friends.
"Junior Qi Chengli has met senior Chu."
"Junior Cao Ying has met senior Chu."
"Junior Wang Lijun has met senior Chu."
"Junior Zhang Miaoren has met senior Chu."
"Junior Zhang Qinqin has met senior Chu."
The five of them looked very excited, but Zhang Qinqin's eyes were the brightest, while Qi Chengli and the other four were excited, but there was still a hint of anxiety in their eyes.
Senior Chu probably didn't hear what they said in the inner room.
According to the rules of the Dan Realm, when a monk visits another sect, he cannot use his spiritual consciousness at will.
Wang Jiren on the side was also dumbfounded. He didn't know who this senior Chu was, but he knew about Danshan Sect.
Whenever a disciple of the Danshan Sect comes to the sect, the sect leader will personally accompany him and entertain him.
This... I'm afraid something is wrong this time.
"Senior Chu, please make the decision for me!"
The next moment, Zhang Qinqin suddenly spoke with grief and anger. As soon as these words came out, everyone else's expressions changed.
Chen Qian also sighed in his heart. If disciples like Elder Shu didn't put this matter on the table, it would be very easy to solve this matter.
The sect buried Fellow Daoist Shu according to the elder's specifications. Elder Sun would obviously not offend Fellow Daoist Chu. As for the persecution, Fellow Daoist Chu would also expose it, and everyone understood it tacitly.
After all, this is an internal matter of their Luoshan Sect. Fellow Daoist Chu is just an outsider and cannot interfere too much.
But now that Elder Shu's disciple has put this matter on the table, it won't be so easy to solve.
As a good friend of Elder Shu, Fellow Daoist Chu must seek justice for Elder Shu.
"Elder Chen, Senior Brother Shu and I are good friends. Let me pay my respects to Senior Brother Shu first."
Chu Ning did not answer Zhang Qinqin's words, but said something to Chen Qian and walked towards the inner room. Qi Chengli and others quickly got out of the way and stood to one side with anxious expressions.
Seeing Chu Ning walking into the inner room, Chen Qian breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed that this fellow Daoist Chu didn't want to make the matter a big deal.
"Why are you still standing here? Are you also a disciple of Elder Shu?"
Chen Qian glanced at Wang Jiren, who said tremblingly: "No... no, I just came to pay homage to Elder Shu. Now that the worship is over, I will leave now."
Wang Jiren left the yard as if fleeing, and Chen Qian looked at Qi Chengli and others.
"You are juniors, just stay in this courtyard."
Chen Qian has received a message from the sect master at this moment. He is going to the sect hall to inform the sect master and other elders about the situation.
The sect leader and others should know what happened, but they can't figure out Ning's reaction. How Chu Ning will react also determines how the sect should respond.
Inner room.
Chu Ning watched Shu Wenruan lying quietly on the bed, but his mind was recalling every detail of getting along with Senior Brother Shu in the Xinhuo Palace.
"You don't need to call me senior. My surname is Shu. You can call me Senior Brother Shu, because I only arrived in the Dan Realm fifty years earlier than you."
"Junior Brother Chu, you should focus on refining elixirs instead of practicing now, and strive to join the sect within a hundred years."
"If you don't have enough spiritual stones, you can borrow some from me."
"Senior brother is here to say goodbye to Junior Brother Chu. Senior brother is going to a secondary sect. The sect has a powerful person who transforms into gods..."
Scenes of past events came to mind. Over the past few decades, Chu Ning's friendship with Senior Brother Shu was no less than that of Senior Brother Gu when he asked about Jin Zong.
"Didn't Senior Brother Shu say he wanted to join a secondary sect? Why did he end up joining the Luoshan Sect?"
Chu Ning whispered, and then continued: "People like Luo Shan Sect don't know that it is their honor for Senior Brother Shu to join Luo Shan Sect."
"Before coming, I have already sent a message to those guys. Brother Shu, just wait a few more days."
