Chapter 1401 Important Task
Seeing the solemn look on the seventh elder's face, I stopped joking.
"What happened, Grandpa Seven?"
"Recently, there are always people sneaking close to the sect." The seventh elder whispered, "I suspect that they are plotting against the Secret Pavilion."
I frowned: "Who are they?"
"It's not clear yet. It only appeared in the past few days. It's been coming and going around, but hasn't come in. So, I just stayed put."
The seventh elder looked disgusted.
"Our Yunyin Sect is now in a state of poverty. Apart from the Secret Pavilion, what else is worth coveting?"
"I'm afraid it's still the same group of people who didn't succeed back then and are still obsessed with it now."
I thought for a while and said, "Then I won't go down the mountain this time. I must catch those guys out."
This matter is related to the Secret Pavilion and must be taken seriously.
"Sect Master, I feel at ease now that you are back." The Seventh Elder nodded, "I am a bad old man, and I would not regret dying. I am afraid that I will not be able to guard the mountain gate and let those evil thieves enter the secret pavilion. I am sorry for Yunyin." Zong.”
"Bah, bah, bah! What nonsense are you talking about, Grandpa Qi!" I interrupted him, "You live to be a hundred years old and want to watch the Yunyin Sect develop and grow again, do you understand?"
"Okay, okay." The seventh elder smiled, and then glanced at Gao Jiang who was putting things outside. He felt worried and said, "Sect Master, do you think any of the people we have taken in will..."
"Grandpa Qi, don't think blindly. Lao Gao is a good person. I believe he will be fine," I said.
"It's okay. I was frightened by what happened in the past. Our Yunyin Sect has finally gained hope, and we can't afford to go through this kind of trouble again." The seventh elder sighed.
"Grandpa Qi, don't worry, I won't let you worry about such a thing."
After a few words of comfort, the seventh elder felt much better.
"How's Uncle Qin Master doing lately?"
"Practice diligently, and my soul has stabilized, and there seems to be a sign of a breakthrough. Now that I have her as my companion, the days of guarding the mountain gate are not so sad anymore."
"That's good. I'll have a nice chat with her tonight."
I didn’t mention Qinglong for the time being.
During the day, Gao Jiang and I were asked to tidy up the sect and weed and repair it.
Dusk.
We finally repaired a leaky roof, sat on the roof, watched the setting sun, smoked and rested.
The orange-red afterglow shines on the winter mountain forests and ancient buildings, which is quiet and beautiful.
"Sect Master, the scenery of our Yunyin Sect is so beautiful." Gao Jiang, a rough man, felt deeply.
"So we have to protect the sect well." I said.
"That's necessary! I've always wanted to do something for Zongli, but I don't have Lao Bai's brains, advanced cultivation, and no money. I don't know what else I can do except menial work." He Somewhat frustrated.
"Don't belittle yourself. There was no task for you before because the time has not come yet." I smiled and said: "There is an important task tonight, and it must be you."
"Really?" Gao Jiang suddenly became energetic.
"Do you think I would make fun of the sect?"
"No, no, sect leader, that's not what I meant. I'm so happy! No matter what the task is, I, Lao Gao, will definitely complete it."
Gao Jiang patted his chest excitedly.
"You won't go up the mountain, and you won't get down from the frying pan. You are like this tonight." I lowered my voice.
"that's all?"
After listening, Gao Jiang was a little confused.
"Don't think it's easy. Whether you can catch those people depends on your performance." I said seriously.
"Promise to complete the mission!" Gao Jiang nodded heavily.
The sun sets.
Yunyin Sect gradually fell into the night.
The mountains are silent except for the sound of the wind blowing constantly.
In the huge sect, there was only one dim candlelight.
I was talking with the seventh elder and the piano master uncle in the room.
"Uncle Music Master, your condition is much better." Looking at Uncle Music Master whose soul has stabilized, I couldn't help but smile.
"It's not all thanks to you kid." Uncle Qin Master also smiled, "But this is just the beginning. I hope I can practice it as soon as possible and take off this wedding dress."
"With Uncle Qin Master's diligence, it won't take long."
"I wish I had worked so hard when I was alive." Uncle Qin Master sighed, "It happens that people only understand after experiencing painful lessons."
It is quite common for ordinary people to regret that they did not study hard when they grow up.
"Qin'er, you have done a good job, let's not talk about the past." The seventh elder comforted.
"Yes, Uncle Qi, we all need to be good and watch as Yunyin Sect gets better and better."
After chatting for a while, I regained my composure.
"Grandpa Seventh, Uncle Master, I was investigating at the foot of the mountain recently, and I got some clues about the twenty-eight constellations, but there are some things I still don't understand. I want to hear what you think."
"What's going on?" They both listened attentively.
"How much do you know about Qinglong?"
"How to start talking about this? Qinglong is one of the four images of the twenty-eight stars." The seventh elder said, "It is rumored that each image of the stars guards a different power."
"Canglong Qisu has a body like a long snake, a unicorn head, a carp tail, a long beard on the face, antlers like a deer, five claws, and a majestic appearance."
"It is said that he controls the lifeblood of all people in the world and has great influence in all directions."
"But what exactly it is, no one can tell."
"The lifeblood of the world?" I thought about the seventh elder's words, thinking about the appearance of Long Lingyu in my mind, "Water? Everything is inseparable from water."
Uncle Qin Master asked curiously: "Yunfeng, what exactly did you find out?"
"A few days ago, I went to Qingcheng, where there is Shenglong Lake, and I saw a real dragon." I said, "He gave me a drop of water. I was wondering what the function of this drop of water was."
At this point, there is no need to hide the progress of Xingxiu from them.
"Real dragon?! You actually saw a real dragon?" Master Qin's eyes widened in shock, "Then what does a real dragon look like? Is it really as majestic as in the legend?"
"And why did it give you a drop of water? What did you do there?"
The seventh elder's brows twitched and he said in disbelief: "Yunfeng, could it be that that drop of water is the power of the blue dragon?"
I nodded.
One person and one ghost took a deep breath.
"The green dragon was suppressed under the water by Xiangongtang's trapped dragon. I rescued it. Out of gratitude, it gave me a drop of water." I took out the Dragon Spirit Jade.
"This is it."
The verdant dragon-shaped jade ring with a drop of crystal clear water in the middle is a work of art.
They were so shocked that they didn't know what to say.
"Yunfeng, be sure to keep it!" The seventh elder didn't even dare to look at it and said nervously, "It's not peaceful outside our sect recently!"
"Don't worry, I've sent Lao Gao to watch outside."
I put away the Dragon Spirit Jade.
"Although I have obtained the power of the Blue Dragon, I don't know what its function is, and I am a little troubled."
The seventh elder pondered and said: "It is said that Canglong is closely related to the cultivation of the earth. What is water, the lifeblood of the world, combined?"
"What is water called again?" Suddenly my heart moved and I couldn't help blurting it out.
"The source of life!"
