Chapter 19: Dust and Wind
Tianlu fish belly white, Huo Qing confessed to a knight to escort Haoyu to Tianchi Sect, and he led the Huatai army to follow the traces of the demon beast.
Haoyu packed a few clothes, took the token given by Huo Qing, and found the gentleman in the village before leaving, entrusted ten acres of fertile land and a buffalo to Mr., and Mr. took out his life savings and handed it to Haoyu.
Mr. tearfully instructed Haoyu to be a low-key person outside, and told him to endure hardships in order to become a master.
Haoyu nodded in response, reluctantly said goodbye to Mr. and walked towards the entrance of the village.
After a stick of incense, Haoyu came to the entrance of the village, looked back at the wolf-like Wujia Village, sighed in his heart, turned around and stepped on the wolf horse, and clasped the ironclad knight with both hands.
The Iron Knight pulled the rope and shouted, "Go." ”
The wolf beast ran, and Haoyu never looked back.
The wolf beast travels 800 miles a day, and arrives at the foot of Tianchi Mountain before sunset.
There are two peaks in Tianchi Mountain, the main peak is 800 meters high, and the side peak is 500 meters high.
The main peak is 300 meters away to build a field named Xinyun Dojo, Xinyun Dojo is the place where the beginner disciples practice and stay, the main peak is 500 meters to build a hall also known as the Tianchi Hall to live in the Xuanjing and above the cultivation of the disciples, the main peak 800 meters to build a house and a pavilion, for the elders and the masters to practice and live.
At the foot of Tianchi Mountain, set up an entrance archway, the two stone pillars of the archway are three zhang high respectively, there is a stone plaque of one zhang five erected in the middle of the two pillars, three big characters are written on the stone plaque Tianchi Zong, and five small characters are written in the lower right corner of the sword fairy Yuqing inscription.
There is a wooden house under the archway, there are two people living in the wooden house, one is called guarding the mountain and the other is called attracting guests, both of them are seven feet tall, in their early thirties, wearing a loose gray robe, and the hairpin is tied up on the top of the head.
The Iron Knight was still ten meters away from the archway before stopping the wolf beast, "It's here." ”
The ironclad knight jumped down, turned around and hugged Haoyu down.
The ironclad knight patted the wolf beast's head, "You wait for me here, I'll come when I go." ”
The wolf's head nodded to indicate that he was waiting.
After the ironclad knight finished speaking, he took out a half-foot jerky from the cloth bag hanging on the wolf's back and stuffed it into the wolf's mouth.
The wolf beast lay on the ground with the jerky in its mouth and began to chew with relish.
The Iron Knight looked at Haoyu and said, "Follow me. . . ”
Haoyu responded yes, followed behind the ironclad knight, and the two walked towards the archway of Tianchi Sect one after the other.
Shoushan saw that two people were coming, looked at the ironclad knight with a solemn face, and greeted the person when he stood under the archway.
Shoushan bowed and asked, "I don't know why the two of you came?"
Shoushan remembered that the ten-year apprenticeship ceremony had just passed a year, and some people brought children to come every day, thinking that it was another general who sent Xiao'er to Tianchi Sect to apprentice, and if such things happened, Shoushan would stop and persuade them to return.
The Tianchi Sect has a good reputation, recruiting a group of disciples every ten years, from ten to fifteen years old, and every time it recruits disciples, thousands of people come to sign up.
The Tianchi Sect has strict requirements for accepting disciples, and each teenager has to go through many tests and competitions to eliminate, and select the best twenty or so teenagers to be accepted as disciples.
After those unsuccessful teenagers went back, they practiced hard at home every day, and felt that they had reached the standard of accepting disciples in the Tianchi Sect, and they came to worship the mountain with a large amount of gold and silver.
Most of these young men were the children of generals and officials, and their families were well-off.
However, the Tianchi Sect has the rules of the Tianchi Sect, and after the time of accepting disciples, even the heirs of the princes will not be accommodating.
The ironclad knight saw that Shoushan stopped him and asked him politely: "My general asked me to send this young man up the mountain to worship in the Tianchi Sect. ”
After the ironclad knight finished speaking, he glanced at Haoyu beside him.
Haoyu stared at the man guarding the mountain for a while, and stared at the ironclad knight for a while, and he was very nervous.
Shoushan said: "You two go down the mountain! Don't say that it is your general, even if the city lord of this hundred miles comes, he will no longer accept people after the time of the apprenticeship ceremony." ”
The ironclad knight winked at Haoyu.
Haoyu knowingly took out a token from his robe and offered it with both hands.
Shoushan frowned, reluctantly took the token, and held it in his hand.
After watching it for a few breaths, my eyes lit up.
"This is Uncle Huo Qing's token, you two are waiting here, and I will pass on the stewardship. ”
After Shoushan finished speaking, he took the token and went up the mountain.
The ironclad knight smiled: "It's better for you to use the general's token, it's more effective than the city lord coming in person." ”
Haoyu breathed a sigh of relief, he was worried that the Tianchi Sect had strict rules, and he had no martial arts foundation, if the Tianchi Sect did things according to the rules, and he wanted to worship the Tianchi Sect, it would be a fool's dream.
"I didn't expect that Brother Huo's status in the Tianchi Sect was so respectful. ”
"That's nature. ”
The two waited for a stick of incense under the archway and saw three people coming to this side, and one of them was windy under his feet.
Twenty or thirty meters away, he shouted.
"But Senior Brother Huo has a letter to deliver. ”
Haoyu was looking at the comer, and the caller was a handsome man in a white robe, with a deep and powerful voice.
This person is seven feet five tall, with upright and delicate facial features, and a five-foot long sword diagonally tied to his back, and he is in his early twenties.
There were two other people beside this man, a man and a woman, the man in his early forties wore a gray cotton robe, and the woman wore a green shirt skirt, in her early twenties.
The beautiful woman looked at her expectantly.
The white-robed man arrived first, stretched out his hand and patted Haoyu on the shoulder, "You are the young man sent by Senior Brother Huo?"
The white-robed man's joy was palpable.
Haoyu's figure is half a head shorter than the white-robed boy.
The white-robed man didn't wait for Haoyu to answer, and then opened his mouth to praise: "The face is like a crown and the body is like a tiger, which is a material for martial arts." ”
The white-robed man is named Chenfeng, the beautiful woman is named Ziyue, and he has the best relationship with Huo Qing in Tianchi Sect.
Today, I happened to discuss things with my senior sister Ziyue in the Xinyun Dojo with the steward, and the mountain guard came to spread the news that someone was holding Huo Qing's token and asking to see him at the bottom of the mountain.
The two of them couldn't wait to come down and take a look.
Seeing that this person was enthusiastic, Haoyu thought that he must be Huo Qingge's best friend, so he immediately greeted him with a smile and bowed, "My name is Haoyu, and it was Huo Qingge who sent someone to Tianchi Sect to learn the arts, I don't know what the seniors call me?"
Haoyu didn't know what to call the man in front of him, was he called senior brother, senior uncle, or brother?
Chenfengzi immediately laughed, "I knew that Senior Brother Huo was afraid that I would be lonely on the mountain, so he sent the boy from his hometown over." ”
After Dusty Wind finished speaking, tears flowed down his eyes.
Love and hate have tears, love and righteousness are not, the so-called men have tears and do not flick, but they have not reached the sad place, the white-robed man is like this, sentimental and affectionate.
Chenfeng still remembers that year, Huo Qing went up the mountain to apprentice, and his uncle brought Huo Qing to come and arranged for Huo Qing to live in a courtyard with him, Huo Qing was a few years older than him, and he didn't know how to call him, so he hugged his fists and shouted seniors.
The past is clear in my eyes, as if it was yesterday.
Ziyue stood under the archway and looked at Haoyu not far away, revealing complicated eyes.
After a few breaths, Ziyue let go of the woman's reserved and delicate state, ran to Haoyu's side, staring at him without turning her eyes, her eyes looking at Haoyu.
Haoyu looked embarrassed and was about to speak.
The steward not far away coughed and strode over.
