Shen Geng's speech in the dining room was immediately effective. Xiao Qingtao, the only sister and brother in the Pei family, lost almost all of his friends after breakfast.

She acted very well at the time and said to Fangfang who had not left: "It's okay, I'm used to it. Before coming to Pangshan, my parents had reminded me that there would be such a thing. I have two younger brothers, and I'm not alone at all." Her voice was still soft and childish as if she was a few years old. Her tone and expression were like a person who had experienced vicissitudes of life. The tears in her eyes turned around for a few times, but they never flowed out.

Shen Geng drew two circles in the dining room, one circle was friends, the other circle was people who needed to be vigilant, and outside the two circles were ordinary disciples who were mediocre. After him, the other four Taoist children also selected their friends. Chen Hao and Fangfang were fortunate to be selected in this batch. Other young men in Yelin Town could only act as envy. They were already very happy, at least they were not classified as alternative because of the demon seed.

Xin Youtao was also selected. When he washed the haze on his face, he was very excited all morning, spreading the deeds of Shen Geng and others to the "ordinary disciples". No one could tell whether these words were found out or made up.

Shen Geng and Shen Ji are two brothers, and they are only one year apart. As for why "Geng" is brother "Ji" and "Ji" are brothers, Xin Youtao cannot explain clearly, so he can only vaguely pass. The parents of the Shen brothers are both law enforcement officers in the precepts department and are highly valued in Pangshan.

The parents of the other three are also disciples of various subjects, one of them is even a return master of the Five Elements Department - this means that she is proficient in the three categories of the Five Elements magic and is a rare elite among the Nine Daotongs.

When Chen Hao came back from Shen Ji, his walking posture was a bit abnormal. His knees were raised too high, as if he wanted to fly one step, but he seemed a little clumsy and half confused. He seemed to be a naughty student who was praised by his husband for the first time. "He asked me to call him fellow Taoist Shin Ji, so that it is easy to distinguish from his brother. He also said that my stick skills are good. If I work harder, I might be able to appreciate the identity of Pangshan disciple."

The teenagers in Yelin Town gathered in a room, and at this time they all showed envious eyes. Only Xiaoqiu frowned slightly, "He is talking to you like this?"

"What's wrong?" Chen Hao didn't understand yet.

"Shen Ji is not the only one who teaches us, they are all new disciples who have just a new student of Daogen. What qualifications are they? To speak in a tone of instruction?"

The teenagers looked at Xiaoqiu in surprise, and Daliang Chen Xiuming said: "The parents of the two brothers of the Shen family are Taoist priests. They may have a Taoist root from their wombs. Even if they enter Pangshan with us, how many years will they have been practicing their bodies? We have only been a few months, and our level... should be different, right?"

Chen Hao scratched his head, "They have lived in the mountains since they were young and have no contact with ordinary people. They speak in this style. In fact, they are quite kind."

Erliang Chen Xiuwei also felt that Xiaoqiu was thinking too much, "Yes, fellow Taoist Shen Geng was so polite when he was breakfast. He took the initiative to come and talk to us. Brother Xiaoqiu, should we go back and visit later? Or wait for lunch before talking."

Indeed, with the status of the Shen brothers, their behavior and tone were very polite, much more polite than the former second young master of the Shen family, Chen Hao, but Xiaoqiu still felt awkward, "Shen Geng shouldn't speak to Xiao Qingtao so much. Xiao Qingtao has never offended anyone."

Everyone still remembers the scene of the three siblings in the Pei family walking out of the dining room in panic. The teenagers were silent for a while. Erliang Chen Xiuwei said: "But what fellow Taoist Shen Geng said is the truth. Everyone thinks so, but no one dares to say it in public before. Brother Xiao Qiu, don't you also object to be friends with them?"

"It doesn't matter whether you are friends or not, but Shen Geng doesn't need to humiliate Xiao Qingtao in public." Mu Feihuang suddenly interrupted. He was not valued by the Taoist disciples. He was envious of Xiaoqiu and others, and he was a little jealous of the Pei siblings.

"The Taoist children speak so straightforwardly." Erliang Chen Xiuwei explained.

"Not only that." Chen Hao remembered some rumors he heard. Although the source was Xin Youtao, it was also somewhat worthy of belief. "Shen Geng, Shen Ji's grandfather and an aunt died in the land of demons many years ago, so their whole family hated the demon clan extremely, no matter which type it was."

"I really don't understand why Pang Shan wanted to accept a few non-demon disciples?" Erliang Chen Xiuwei said angrily. He is now completely on the side of the Shen brothers.

Xiaoqiu had nothing to say and shrugged, "Let's go and practice boxing, you don't have to worry about other people's business."

Chen Hao walked to the door and took a look, "Fangfang hasn't come back yet? She has been chatting with that female disciple named for a long time."

Erliang Chen Xiuwei laughed and said, "Fangfang likes the story of Taoism the most, of course she has to talk about it for a while."

Xiaoqiu felt that Fangfang would not break off contact with Xiao Qingtao just like this. He took the lead in walking out of the room and went to the martial arts training ground between the main room and the east wing room to do boxing. The other teenagers also followed him. After the fight, they all broke up. Chen Hao and Erliang Chen Xiuwei both wanted to make new friends and ran very fast.

Xiaoqiu was the only one left. He punched the bone-forging fist again, and then sat on the stone bench under the tree to rest.

It was late October autumn, and Yelin Town should have been very cold at this time. Jinghu Village, which is thousands of miles apart but is located in the northwest, is just a little cool, so Xiaoqiu doesn't even need to add coats.

Perhaps Taoist priest Pangshan used spells on the entire area so that the climate here would not change too violently. Looking back, Xiaoqiu found that the rain here was always very timely, and every time it rained, it would be at night, so that it would not delay the daytime.

The spell is really a wide range of uses. As soon as this idea disappeared, Xiaoqiu focused on listening to the sounds in the museum and had a superb ability without using it. It was like having toys without playing with them, and having gold and silver without flowers, which always made people feel itchy.

It was only once, but it was better not to be too much. Xiaoqiu easily found Shen Geng. Shen Ji and the other three Taoist children were still so elegant and indifferent, even though there were probably no outsiders nearby.

They were talking about the topic of practicing Taoism, and some of the content was quite mysterious. If Xiaoqiu had not read some books in a few months and heard Fangfang tell some stories, he might not have understood a single sentence.

Just as Xiaoqiu was about to give up, a female disciple mentioned his name, "The one named Mu Xingqiu seems very arrogant."

Shen Geng said: "Normal, he is arrogant because of his talent. He is the strongest among this group of disciples, so he will naturally be a little arrogant. I just hope that he will not be arrogant to the point of being stupid and must date non-demons, that Qin Lingshuang..."

As soon as Shen Geng mentioned "Qin Lingshuang", Fangfang's voice came, "Xiaoqiu..."

Xiaoqiu didn't tell where the sound came from for a moment. He trembled in his heart and hurriedly retracted his hearing, feeling dizzy in his mind.

"What's wrong with you?" Fangfang stood in front of Xiaoqiu, only five or six steps away from him.

"It's okay, I'm a little dizzy." Xiao Qiu shook his head, "Is there anything I need to ask me for?"

Fangfang bit her lip, thought for a while before speaking, "Xiao Qingtao is my good friend. I will not break off contact with her just by saying something from others, but you and others don't have to care about my choice. You can make new friends, we... just know it in our hearts."

"Shenkang, Shinji has his family dead at the hands of the demons, so he hates all demons, just like Ye Linzhen is destroyed in the hands of the demon seed..."

"I know." Fangfang raised her head a little, and suddenly she had a more proud expression on her face than Shen Geng. "But there are injustice and debts. The Pei family has been moving to Furong Mountain for seven or eight generations, and it has nothing to do with the hatred of the Shen family. Xiao Qingtao has never seen the appearance of a demon before. She should not be discriminated against."

"But……"

Fangfang smiled sweetly, "I didn't mean to make friends with the Pei siblings. I only made friends with Xiao Qingtao myself. You are a boy and a girl. You should have made friends with each other."

"I understand, my idea is the same." Xiao Qiu said immediately, Fangfang's idea did make things simpler.

The two of them didn't say anything for a while, and finally Fangfang spoke, "These people in Yelin Town... nothing has changed, right?"

"It hasn't changed." Xiao Qiu replied, but he was a little confused. He didn't understand what hadn't changed, so he kicked the stone under his feet.

Things are not as simple as the two imagined.

During lunch, the dining room changed its usual atmosphere. When everyone walked in, they seemed to be watching the show. They quickly found their place, swept their eyes around, and searched for the protagonist today.

The five Taoist disciples were divided into two tables, men and women. Two female disciples called their selected friends over. There were eight people in total, and the table was full. The three male disciples called their friends a little slower. Xin Youtao, Shen Hao, Erliang Shen Xiuwei and another young man were lucky enough to sit at this table. The former was proud and reserved, but the latter three were a little nervous and lowered their heads and dared not speak.

Then other talents sat down one after another. Pei Zihan and Pei Ziqi hid in the corner and buried their heads in their meals. Fangfang and Xiao Qingtao sat in another corner. The two tables looked very neglected.

Several village women watched this scene with great enthusiasm and almost forgot to make a meal.

Xiaoqiu practiced bone-forging fist twice more, and it was relatively late. Erliang Shen Xiuwei immediately waved to him. Xiaoqiu walked over under the gaze of everyone, and there was only one place next to Shen Kang.

Shen Geng pressed his right hand on the stool and looked up at Xiaoqiu, "I think there is a saying I'd better say first."

Xiaoqiu nodded. He practiced fist for a whole morning and had a little sweat on his face. He raised his hand and wiped it with his sleeve. Shen Hao and Erliang Shen Xiuwei both opened their mouths, looking shocked and suspicious.

"There is only one way to practice Taoism, there is no other way, and you can't be a human being. You can't swing left and right. I believe that some non-demons are good, but this requires evidence and you need to see how they choose at critical moments."

"Yes." Xiaoqiu nodded again.

"You go and let Qin Lingshuang understand this, and then you can sit here."

"Yes." Xiaoqiu nodded again

Shen Hao and Erliang Shen Xiuwei breathed a sigh of relief, but Xin Youtao on the opposite side showed a look of great interest, staring at Xiaoqiu without blinking. In fact, most people in the dining room were staring here, and even forgot to eat. Most people didn't hear what Shen Geng said, but only saw that Xiaoqiu had not sat down yet.

Xiaoqiu turned around and walked to the village woman who delivered the food. She received a bowl of rice and a bowl of vegetables. The village woman knew that he had a lot of food and served him a lot.

Xiaoqiu held a bowl in one hand and quickly walked to Fangfang and Xiao Qingtao's table, asking, "Can I sit here and have dinner with you?"

Xiao Qingtao's cheeks were red and her eyes flashed. She couldn't tell whether she was excited or panic on her face.

Fangfang's face was just a little red, and her expression was more calm than usual. She nodded slightly. When Xiaoqiu sat down, she pushed the bowl of dishes in front of her towards him a little.

Xiaoqiu lowered her head and started eating, without saying a word.
