Chapter Thirteen: Meet the Master and Uncle

Xue Xiuyi and Li Ru were sitting at a street tea stall drinking a large bowl of tea.

From their position, they could just see the alley across the street.

Although their view is occasionally blocked by pedestrians on the street, this is also their safety guarantee.

When they saw the "yellow-faced middle-aged man" pushing forward with a sword, the two of them thought they were going to fight, so they couldn't help but nervously hold the hilt of the sword.

Then their view was blocked by pedestrians. When they looked again, they saw Min Xuelou flying down.

This scene made Xue Xiuyi almost stand up, but was held down by the calmer Li Ru.

Then the two of them couldn't help but widen their eyes, showing signs of astonishment.

Because after Min Xuelou flew down, not only did he not take action, but he knelt down in front of the person who was being carried!

"What...what is going on?" Xue Xiuyi couldn't help but stuttered.

After Li Ru was shocked, her face was full of doubts, her mind turned quickly, and she guessed: "Could it be... that he is the same generation as Master Su Yi's great-uncle?"

"But I heard that didn't all the seven true traditions of the ancestors fall away except for Su Yishi's uncle?" Xue Xiuyi expressed confusion.

Li Ru frowned, "They say they all died, but the body of the fifth master's uncle has never been found."

Xue Xiuyi was pleasantly surprised after hearing this, but still asked with some uncertainty: "You mean the person being carried might be the uncle of the fifth master?"

Li Ru didn't answer.

Because the new scene in the alley has given the answer - after Min Xuelou, Mu Chunhua also knelt in front of the person who was carried.

"It seems that he may be the uncle of the fifth master. Let's go there quickly!" Xue Xiuyi stood up excitedly.

Li Ru was also quite excited, but she had a calmer personality and her emotions were not as obvious as Xue Xiuyi's.

Nodding, she dropped the tea money and followed Xue Xiuyi towards the alley.

However, just after crossing the street and entering the alley, the two saw an unexpected scene - Min Xuelou and Mu Chunhua stood up together, and at the same time clasped their fists and bowed to the "yellow-faced middle-aged man"!

This scene made the two of them stunned for a moment.

Although Wuji Dao's etiquette is not as strict as other sects, it is still somewhat particular.

You only need to bow and clasp your fists when you are among peers, and you only need to bow when facing your teacher.

As for the big ceremony of kneeling down, it is only used on certain special occasions, such as worshiping the ancestor, performing the apprenticeship ceremony, or expressing excitement after seeing the teacher again after a long separation, etc.

However, according to the two people's speculation just now, if the person who was carried was the uncle of the fifth master, even if the "yellow-faced middle-aged" was his disciple, he was only the same generation as Min Xuelou and Mu Chunhua. How could they be allowed to salute like a master?

?

On the other side, Min Xuelou and Mu Chunhua had already noticed their arrival.

Min Xuelou turned his head. Although there were tears on his cheeks, he had a rare smile. He waved to the two of them and said, "Why are you two standing there in a daze? Come and pay homage to the ancestor!"

‘Ancestor?!!!’

The two people who had just recovered were stunned again.

At this time, Mu Chunhua also turned around and waved: "Come here quickly!"

Xue Xiuyi and Li Ru finally came to their senses. Although they were a little confused, they still walked over quickly and obediently.

Neither of them heard a more specific explanation, so they were held down by their respective masters and bowed down to the man who was being carried by the big man.

"No need to be polite, just get up."

A plain and gentle voice suddenly appeared in his mind, startling Li Ru.

She subconsciously raised her head and saw the man's face that looked quite familiar - it was at least 70% similar to the portrait of the founder of the sect. Could this man... be the legendary founder Su who died overseas?

Yan?

Amid the ups and downs of her mind, she was half-pushed to stand up by her master, Mu Chunhua.

At this time, Min Xuelou wiped away the tears on his face and asked: "Master, back then..."

"This is not the place to talk. If you have any questions, ask later." Su Yan's voice appeared in several people's minds.

Su Yan had tried transmitting messages to two people at the same time a month ago, but this was his first time trying to transmit messages to six people at the same time. He found it quite difficult and he felt tired after saying a few words.

Min Xuelou and Mu Chunhua actually had no fewer questions than Xue Xiuyi and Li Ru, but they did not dare to disobey Su Yan's words.

After hesitating for a moment, Min Xuelou said: "The sect has a secret shop in Nancheng. Why don't Master follow us there?"

Judging from the behavior of Min Xuelou and Mu Chunhua just now, they obviously did not expect his appearance, so Su Yan was not afraid that they were traitors of Wuji Dao, so he took him to a place where there was an ambush and immediately sent a message to Wu Yue.

, means yes.

Min Xuelou didn't hear his master's voice again. Just when he was wondering if his master disagreed, he heard Wu Yue say: "Master said it's okay, you guys can lead the way."

Min Xuelou, Mu Chunhua didn't ask any more questions and immediately went forward to lead the way.

Xue Xiuyi and Li Ru fell behind. They each looked away from Wu Yue and couldn't help but look at each other.

Without speaking, the two of them could guess what each other was thinking at this moment - no wonder the master had saluted him before, it turned out that this man was their master-uncle.

Because the store is located in Nancheng, although the group walked through alleys to avoid attracting attention, they quickly arrived at Yaoji Grocery Store.

Entering the main room, the most spacious room in the courtyard, Tie Xiong followed Su Yan's request and placed him on the bed.

In this way, Su Yan faced his disciples and grandsons in a relatively normal cross-legged posture.

Wu Yue stood to Su Yan's lower right hand, and Tie Xiong stood to Wu Yue's lower right hand, both facing Min Xuelou's four people.

Min Xuelou opened her mouth to ask something, but Mu Chunhua pulled her back and said to Li Ru and Xue Xiuyi first: "This person next to the founder is your eighth master uncle. Quickly salute and say hello."

When the two came back, they knew Wu Yue's identity, so they were mentally prepared. They immediately bowed and clasped their fists, and said together: "Greetings to the eighth master's uncle."

In a blink of an eye, Wu Yue became a master's uncle, and Wu Yue felt a little embarrassed.

Fortunately, her face is still smeared with ginger juice and her beard is stained, so it is not easy to notice the change in her complexion.

"No need to be polite." Wu Yue responded politely, then thought of Tie Xiong next to him, and said: "This is my disciple Tie Xiong."

After hearing this, the expressions of Min Xuelou and the other four people all changed slightly, especially Min Xuelou's expression changed the most.

But soon Mu Chunhua pulled Min Xuelou, smiled and saluted Tie Xiong, clasping his fists and saying, "It turns out to be Junior Brother Tie Xiong, I was rude just now."

Iron Bear was a little nervous.

He had seen Min Xuelou flying down in the alley. In his eyes, these women were all heroines who could go high and high.

Therefore, he was a little helpless and said with a naive smile: "It's not rude, it's not rude."

Min Xuelou was originally very disgusted with this male junior brother who suddenly appeared, but when he saw Tie Xiong's behavior as a simple and honest countryman, his disgust was reduced, so he reluctantly cupped his fists and saluted, "I have met Junior Brother Tie Xiong."

Immediately, Li Ru and Xue Xiuyi also bowed to Tie Xiong under Mu Chunhua's eyes, "Meet Master Uncle."

"Ah, am I going to be a master uncle now?" Tie Xiong was obviously confused.

To be honest, he still hasn't figured out his relationship with this group of fellow disciples.

Wu Yue felt so embarrassed that she coughed twice.

Fortunately, Iron Bear was not too stupid. He realized that his performance was not very good, so he scratched his head and stood aside without saying anything.

Su Yan has been secretly observing the performance of the four people in Min Xuelou.

He found that although these four people did not seem to have betrayed Wuji Dao, they were still a little weird, but for a while he couldn't figure out what was weird.

After thinking about it, he sent a message to Min Xuelou: "I am currently ill, so I can only use my spiritual consciousness to transmit my message. However, if there are many people transmitting at the same time, my spiritual consciousness will easily get tired. For the sake of convenience, Wu Yue will take over.

Let me send a message to communicate with you."

Min Xuelou was slightly stunned after hearing these words in her mind. Before she could fully understand, Wu Yue said: "Master asked, who is the leader of Wuji Dao now?"

Min Xuelou came back to his senses and looked at Mu Chunhua before facing Su Yan and said, "It's Junior Sister Fu Xuan."

After hearing this, Wu Yue's expression changed slightly, and she immediately said: "Master asked, how many of his seven true successors are still alive?"

This question made Min Xuelou and Mu Chunhua lower their heads and their expressions turned ugly.

Min Xuelou opened his mouth, and his voice became hoarse for no reason——

"Only...only left, Uncle Su Yi!"
