Chapter 67: Apprenticeship
Under Brother Jun's skillful technique, after about ten minutes, Wu Xiaozheng's legs finally regained their feelings.
Although he lost a lot this time, Wu Xiaozheng did not regret it, but was very happy.
That's how martial arts are practiced.
The real skills are all hard work, and there is no room for the slightest stealing and cheating, as the so-called hardship is the only way to become a master.
And for the old man, the stricter he is with you, the more optimistic he is of you.
That's how relationships between people are.
I'm not afraid that someone will take care of it, but I'm afraid that no one will pay attention to it. Only people who really care about you will care about you and nag you.
So Wu Xiaozheng, who paid a heavy price, was actually warm in his heart at this time.
At this time, a dignified-looking woman in her fifties returned to the He family's courtyard from outside.
"Hello teacher, I have a greeting for you. Liu Zhijun hurriedly greeted him.
A sense of familiarity and intimacy surged back into Wu Xiaozheng's heart.
This is Shi Niang, the old man's wife, a woman with a very kind personality.
Don't look at Brother Jun's hippie smile in front of the old man, but he is respectful in front of the teacher.
Wu Xiaozheng also hurriedly followed, and also shouted, "Hello, master." ”
Shi Niang stopped.
"Oh, the army is here, who is this?"
"This is the little apprentice that the master just accepted, named Wu Xiaozheng. Brother Jun hurriedly introduced.
Shi Niang smiled and said to Wu Xiaozheng kindly: "Then go into the house and sit, don't stand in the courtyard." ”
What a warm feeling.
To be honest, in terms of the depth of feelings, Wu Xiaozheng's feelings for this master are deeper than those for the master.
The reason is very simple, He Yuncong is a stinky old man, he is really a little difficult to wait for when his temper comes, and the master is different, she treats every apprentice like a relative, neither too enthusiastic, nor too polite, and treats Wu Xiaozheng more like her own son.
In Wu Xiaozheng's opinion, only a good-tempered person like Shi Niang can live with the master for the rest of his life.
He Yuncong's temper is really too stinky, especially when he was young, many people couldn't get along with him at all.
"Now that Master has returned, let's serve tea. He Yuncong said lightly.
Wu Xiaozheng knew that this was going to be an official apprenticeship, and the reason why he didn't come to this procedure before was to wait for the teacher to come back.
Chinese have always attached great importance to etiquette, and this is especially true in the worship of ancient martial arts.
It is the so-called respect for teachers, and the so-called "parents who gave birth to me, and masters who teach me", "Casting a teacher is like reincarnation".
If it had been before, the rules would have been stricter.
According to the old rules, when apprenticing, you must first invite the grandfather, then give the ancestor incense to worship the ancestor, then worship the master and the master, and then accept the guidance and name of the door rules, etc., anyway, it is very complicated.
Now it is much simplified on He Yuncong's side, which is naturally because He Yuncong doesn't care much about vulgar etiquette.
But no matter what, it is still necessary to give tea to the master and the master.
Wu Xiaozheng picked up two cups from the table familiarly, poured two cups of tea, and handed them to the master and sister who were sitting upright: "Apprentice Wu Xiaozheng pays a visit to the master and the master." ”
Then he knelt down respectfully and knocked his head three times.
Master and Mrs. took a sip of the tea in their hands, and then put down the cup.
"Get up. ”
With He Yuncong's words, this simple apprenticeship was completed, and in this life, Wu Xiaozheng officially entered the master again.
Another wish has finally come true! Tears suddenly filled Wu Xiaozheng's eyes.
Although he felt that Wu Xiaozheng's current performance was a little strange, He Yuncong still asked: "You brought a lot of things this time, it seems that your family conditions are not bad?"
Brother Jun interjected in time: "Master, your new apprentice's ability to make money is not small, and the family is about to open a food processing factory, you can blackmail him a little more in the future." ”
This guy is starting to dismantle me again!
Wu Xiaozheng glared angrily at this unorthodox goods in front of the master.
He Yuncong smiled and said, "Really, don't come to the door empty-handed in the future." ”
Needless to say, Brother Jun's lack of orthodox form was learned from the old man, in fact, Wu Xiaozheng in his previous life learned more.
But now it's a little embarrassing.
Wu Xiaozheng has just entered the school today, so he can't just follow the shape!
He didn't care about that.
To be honest, in terms of value, this master-apprentice relationship is far from being measured by a little thing, you know, in the entire region, I don't know how many people want to spend a lot of money to worship He Yuncong as a teacher, but unfortunately no one has been able to get their wish.
Don't look at He Yun, who never shows his water, but his background is really not small at all.
In the entire southern Hunan region, He Yuncong is one of the few surviving contemporary descendants of Gumeishan martial arts, and now he still holds the position of honorary vice chairman of the regional martial arts association. The Gumeishan martial arts are also well-known in China, and even included in the fourth batch of national intangible cultural heritage list after more than ten years.
It can be said that He Yuncong's ability may not be able to learn if he is rich, and he doesn't really care about that thing, but he doesn't have a proper shape. In his previous life, because of Wu Xiaozheng's poor family, he came to the door empty-handed most of the time, and he didn't see his master and mother blame.
At a critical time, it was the warm master who came out to relieve the siege: "Okay, you dead old man, don't scare Xiaozheng." ”
Looking at the stinking appearance of the master after being dismantled by the master, Wu Xiaozheng finally couldn't help but laugh.
Now it's okay, he was caught by He Yuncong: "There are no rules, go to the rules of the military master!"
Then He Yuncong handed Liu Zhijun a very quaint booklet.
This time it was Wu Xiaozheng's turn to be deflated.
He Yuncong's rules are not strict.
As He Yuncong, who entered the Meishan Guwu sect before liberation, he still pays attention to the rules of the old school.
Brother Jun began to read into the booklet.
"Those who practice martial arts in my Meishan must practice martial arts, and if they violate the rules, they will be severely punished......"
"Eight do not teach: those who violate the heavens and morals do not teach, those who do not respect teachers and elders do not teach, those who are lazy do not teach, those who specialize in prostitution do not teach, those who compete for strength and competitiveness do not teach, those who are ruthless and unrighteous do not teach, those who are brave and ruthless do not teach, and those who take revenge do not teach. ”
……
There are a lot of rules in this booklet, and it takes a lot of time to read it through, and it's really a bit embarrassing for Brother Jun.
Reading and reading, Brother Jun was bored, he stuffed the booklet into Wu Xiaozheng's hand, and said, "You can read it slowly, I will call you slowly after some major rules." ”
He Yuncong is not very surprised by this.
Wu Xiaozheng knew that the master didn't really care too much about some details, but he attached great importance to martial virtues, such as his disciples must not do evil, oppress the good, and harm the people, otherwise they will be severely punished.
For these rules, Wu Xiaozheng is naturally clear.
An apprenticeship is considered complete.
