Chapter 593 Incentives

Hearing Wu Zhouxu's greeting, Zhang Xiaohua cupped her hands and said, "You two masters, please go away. I have to go back to practice martial arts, and I have to find a place to water the medicinal herbs for my tea."

After hearing what Zhang Xiaohua said, the two of them stopped keeping him and turned around and returned to the courtyard.

Zhang Xiaohua looked at the back of the figure walking into the yard and said to herself: "How can a sparrow know the ambition of a swan?"

After saying that, without any hesitation, he used Qinggong and headed towards the top of Tianmu Peak.

In the alchemy room at the top of Tianmu Peak, the liquid in the "Bagua Purple Gold Furnace" is still spinning as before, and the thin red threads are constantly twirling, without any abnormalities.

Zhang Xiaohua felt relieved, put a few magic formulas into the alchemy furnace, sat cross-legged in front of the alchemy furnace, and meditated on the way of heaven.

The night gradually came, and the night gradually became deeper.

While Zhang Xiaohua was doing her routine Wuyou Heart Sutra exercises, the endless starlight still passed through the alchemy furnace and joined the rotation of the pregnancy elixir.

In an exquisite hut far away in Baiyue Peak, Deputy Hall Master Xu of the Tuodan Hall was sitting at the top, leisurely sipping tea. Under his left hand, a man was sitting there respectfully.

This person was Lu Lihong who had returned to Baiyue Peak from Tianmu Peak. Judging from his expression at this time, he was humble and cautious, just like facing his elders, far from the pride and warmth of Tianmu Peak.

Seeing Lu Lihong's performance, Deputy Hall Master Xu was very satisfied. After waiting for a while, he said kindly: "Martial nephew Lu, don't be so polite. You are now a disciple of Wuming Hall. I am just the deputy hall master of Tuodan Hall. No matter how long I stretch, I can't control you."

Lu Lihong did not dare to be negligent, and said respectfully: "Vice Hall Master Xu is very kind to me. Every time I see you, I treat you the same way I would see my elders. How can I be more respectful?"

"No, no need, the wise nephew is too polite. Back then, I just saw that you were practicing hard, you had some qualifications, and the opportunity was good, so I helped you. This is just a help, your own Strength is the most important thing.”

Lu Lihong licked his lips and remained humble: "I dare not forget the grace of Deputy Hall Master Xu."

After a while, he tried again: "Deputy Hall Master Xu, I have already done what you asked me to do."

"Huh?" Deputy Hall Master Xu was slightly surprised and said, "My nephew is very concerned about it. Can it be done so quickly?"

"Yes, your old man's affairs must come first.

"

"Well, okay, let's talk about Ren Xiaoyao's martial arts."

Deputy Hall Master Xu asked with interest.

After thinking for a while, Lu Lihong said cautiously: "This child's martial arts is quite high, but after all, he is still young and has a short time to practice internal skills, so his internal strength is relatively weak. Although the moves are somewhat subtle, they are unfortunately rather monotonous. Just repeat them over and over again. Boxing skills; well, Qinggong is pretty good, and I may have gotten some guidance from some masters in the Rejuvenation Valley, but it’s still a bit worse than me. It’s pretty much what you said, and I should be on the same level as Chen Fengxiao and the others.”

After saying that, he took out the jade bottle from his arms, handed it to Deputy Hall Master Xu respectfully, and said: "I have already used this 'Jade Return Pill'. Please take it back, Deputy Hall Master Xu."

"Haha, as soon as you said you wanted to trade herbs with him, this kid would have taken the bait immediately."

"That's right. Deputy Hall Master Xu is very good at knowing things. He didn't know where he was at first and didn't want to see me. I heard that I can trade herbs with him. It's like meeting his biological father."

"Hehe, it's nothing. Which of the medicine boys from Hui Chun Valley didn't treat those herbs as treasures when they first came here? This kid worked so hard that he finally won a few gambling battles and replaced them all with Medicinal herbs are pure 'fetching water with a bamboo basket in vain'. Now that he has just woken up, how can he refuse the bait you sent? By the way, if you return to Baiyue Peak again, Yang Yao won't have any doubts, right?"

"No, I was still racking my brains to come up with a reason, but Wu Zhouxu actually wanted to stay here to see me off. After drinking this wine, I naturally had a reason."

"Wu Zhouxu, he is a good man."

Deputy Hall Master Xu nodded slightly, very satisfied.

Seeing that Deputy Hall Master Xu only spoke and did not accept the elixir, Lu Lihong said again: "Since this bait has been used up, please ask Deputy Hall Master Xu to take it back."

"Huh?" Deputy Hall Master Xu snorted: "If I, Mr. Xu, took out something, how could there be any reason to take it back again? Just take this elixir and treat it as a favor for you this time. Reward.”

"Ah???" Lu Lihong was surprised and didn't believe it, and said in a trembling tone: "Deputy Hall Master Xu... Is this... too expensive? This matter is just a piece of cake. You are so kind to me..."

"It doesn't matter, you always do things properly, and I am happy in my heart. Although this pill is valuable, it is useless to me. You should stay here, maybe it can be of some help in the future."

"This..." Lu Lihong thought for a moment, then gritted his teeth and accepted it. In fact, he originally wanted to use this time to help Deputy Hall Master Xu and ask for something else, but when someone gave this elixir to him, it was considered as a return to the past. He understood everything he had done to help, but he had given up the idea of ​​opening his mouth and could not say anything about what he asked for.

"You're welcome, little one." After saying this, Lu Lihong put the jade vase into his arms, with a mixture of joy and sorrow on his face.

Seeing the wonderful expression on Lu Lihong's face, Deputy Hall Master Xu also had a confident expression on his face. However, Lu Lihong only thought about his own affairs and did not dare to face it directly, so he did not notice it.

The two of them sat in silence for a while. Lu Lihong raised his head and was about to stand up and say goodbye.

Deputy Hall Master Xu said softly: "Since Senior Nephew Lu has already tried Ren Xiaoyao's martial arts, he must be fully confident in dealing with this kid, right?"

Lu Lihong was stunned and said: "It should be no problem. If it's a gambling fight, even Chen Fenghiao and Wu Zhouxu can defeat Ren Xiaoyao."

"Well, that's good." Deputy Hall Master Xu nodded, making Lu Lihong confused. The gambling battle at Tianmu Peak didn't happen for a year or two, so why did he specifically mention a little drug boy who had just entered Tianmu Peak now? ?

Then there was another moment of silence.

There was a moment of silence in the house.

So, Lu Lihong stood up and said, "It's getting late. Deputy Hall Master Xu, please rest early and I'll take my leave first."

Deputy Hall Master Xu smiled and said: "Martial Nephew Lu, don't be anxious. I see that Senior Nephew Lu is frowning. Is there something difficult to deal with? You didn't regard me as a father just now, so you might as well tell me. I may not be able to help you. Can I help you as a reference?"

"Hey, did I frown?" Lu Lihong was surprised for a while, and secretly wondered: "I was so respectful just now, how could I let him see my worries? But this is also an opportunity, let's talk about it, maybe... "

After thinking about it, Lu Lihong cupped his hands and said, "Deputy Hall Master Xu is indeed like his father. Even this can be seen. Alas, it is also disturbing to say it."

Then he talked about his desire to enter the Grand Canyon for a trial, and then said: "There are many masters of Wu Ming Hall today, and the younger ones are not too outstanding, and they have all been practicing in Wu Ming Hall since they were young. Waiting for the opportunity, no matter what, it will not fall on the young one, but if we don’t go into the Grand Canyon for the trial, we may never have the chance to participate in the outer door test, let alone the subsequent inner door test.”

Deputy Hall Master Xu nodded slightly: "Oh, so that's what happened. You are right. It is indeed difficult for you to get the qualification for this outer sect test. If you can go to Orchid Grand Canyon for the test, you might be able to do it. There is a chance, haha, I forgot, that place is your blessed place, it was a great opportunity last time, maybe this time it will be the same."

Lu Lihong looked at Deputy Hall Master Xu with some longing and said: "Yes, it seems that the small internal strength is no longer improving, and it will be even harder to say after five years, so..."

Deputy Hall Master Xu nodded again and said, "I know your Deputy Hall Master Peng well, and he seems to be able to talk."

After saying that, he picked up the tea cup and took a sip.

"Ah?" Deputy Hall Master Xu said this very softly, but it sounded like the sound of nature to Lu Lihong's ears. He stood up hurriedly and asked in disbelief: "Then...then, you old man...are you willing?" …”

I can't say what I want to say later. Indeed, this favor is huge. Although he was praised by others at Tianmu Peak just now, he knows his own status in the outer sect, and the person in front of him also knows it very well. , this kind of kindness could not be repaid by him no matter what, so he did not dare to say any more tentative words.

Deputy Hall Master Xu remained unmoved. He only raised his eyes to drink tea and looked at him quietly. After a while, he put down the teacup and said calmly: "I can help you open this mouth. However, I hope you will open it for you in the future." You can listen to me..."

When Lu Lihong heard this, he was overjoyed and walked to the front and said: "Vice Hall Master Xu has been kind to me and reborn me. My parents gave birth to me in this world, and Vice Hall Master Xu is the one who created me. From now on, the little ones will only follow Vice Hall Master Xu's lead. If you ask me to go east, I will go east." , I don’t even look at the north, south, and west. Even if I go up the mountain of swords and under the sea of ​​​​fire, I am still willing to do it ten thousand times.”

Deputy Hall Master Xu smiled and said: "Okay, okay, since what Senior Nephew Lu said, it is in line with my wishes. Senior Nephew Lu, please sit down first. I have decided to help you with this, but now I have something to do." I want you to do it."

Lu Lihong nodded and said: "As long as it is something Deputy Hall Xu has to do for me, I will never refuse."

"Don't agree so easily. This matter isn't complicated. Just come over here."

"Ear?" Lu Lihong was stunned.

However, he still stepped forward and Deputy Hall Master Xu spoke in his ear for a while.

Lu Lihong's face showed surprise at first, then frowned, and finally turned pale with shock. Finally he murmured: "Deputy Hall Master Xu, this... this is inappropriate, although... although... this is too... …”
