[Ran^文^Library][]. []. [com] "Uncle Ye, disciple Lei Zhao and two junior disciples who have just started came to visit. (Burning Library (7764))" walked to the bottom of the hut, Lei Zhao said respectfully.

Lin Ning and Li Mingheng also followed his example and did not dare to slack off in the slightest.

I felt a breeze sweeping, and the wooden gate fence that was originally closed creaked open, and I saw an old man in thin and plain clothes, stepping on a steady pace, slowly walking out.

He is over half a hundred years old, with a weather-beaten face, two deep-set eyes, deep and bright, and a trace of brilliance in the vicissitudes of life.

Dressed in plain clothes, old but clean.

Ye Hongji walked out quietly, without the slightest dust, the breeze was elegant, freehand with people, since he appeared, it seemed that the entire bamboo forest was quiet.

He stood in front of the wooden door, looked at the three of them casually, and didn't say much, just said lightly: "Come in."

The tone did not carry the slightest fireworks, and it was as flat as coarse tea.

Lin Ning couldn't help but be slightly surprised, this Master Ye was even more indifferent and detached than he imagined, it seemed that everything in the world had turned into a lake of still water in those deep vicissitudes of life.

Obviously he was a foundation building monk, but Lin Ning didn't feel any oppression from him, and the same was true when he looked at Li Mingheng beside him.

Approachable, but involuntarily awe-inspiring.

"This Master Ye is really not an ordinary person." Lin Ning sighed slightly, but he was also relieved.

"Thank you, uncle." The three of them made a big salute and walked up.

As soon as they entered, the three of them were stunned for a while, in the middle of the hut, on the green bamboo square tea case, I don't know when three bowls of tea had already been prepared, and each put it aside, waiting for someone to come.

The tea is clear and green, contained in the wooden bowl, exuding a faint bitter fragrance, the taste is light and does not disperse, refreshing people's hearts.

"Sit down." Ye Hongji smiled.

The three of them woke up in a daze, Lei Zhao and Lin Ning were fine, and when they heard this, they didn't shirk it, and sat down at the table.

It's just that Li Mingheng is a disciple of the outer courtyard, with a low status, how could he have been so received? Especially the elders of the temple, an upright foundation monk.

This made him quite flattered, and when he saw the two of them sitting down, he dared to sit down, but he also lowered his head and didn't dare to say a word.

"Uncle Ye, these two are new disciples who have just entered the Qiankun Academy, and they don't know the rules very well, if there is anything to be seen, I still hope that Uncle Ye Haihan." Lei Zhao was afraid that the two of them would behave inappropriately and offend Ye Hongji, so he hurriedly opened his mouth to relieve the siege.

But Ye Hongji just smiled indifferently and said indifferently: "Don't worry, you just entered the Qiankun Courtyard and came to see me, an old man, you can be regarded as having a heart." ”

"Uncle Shi's words are serious, visiting your old man's health is the duty of a disciple, disciple Lin Ning has just entered the inner courtyard, he doesn't understand the rules, I hope Uncle Shi doesn't blame him." Lin Ning said, but his eyes looked at Li Mingheng.

Seeing that he was still a little at a loss, Lei Zhao was in a hurry, and hurriedly took over the words for him: "Senior uncle, this is Senior Brother Li who was admitted to the hospital with Senior Brother Lin, Li Mingheng, you should know him, he is stupid and not very good at talking, Uncle Shi should not be angry." ”

"Li Mingheng?" Ye Hongji tea, and after thinking about it for a while, he thought that in the outer courtyard, there was indeed a Li Mingheng who was not very qualified and had not been able to pass the assessment for seven years.

Li Mingheng thought that he would be like everyone else, after knowing his identity, he would say something mean and sour, but he didn't want him to be slightly surprised, he looked at himself carefully, and said with a smile: "It is naturally best to be admitted to the hospital, since you two came to Qiankun Courtyard as apprentices, let him go with the wind." ”

This sentence was said to Li Mingheng, how could Ye Hongji not know what he was thinking in his heart, in his eyes, no matter how poor the qualification of the disciple in front of him was, as long as he came here, he would be treated equally like everyone else.

The implication is that he doesn't care about Li Mingheng's failed past, let alone his qualifications.

He was just a little curious, why did a disciple who had failed to pass the examination for seven consecutive years suddenly get the approval of Nangong Wen Jian this year?

Curiosity is curiosity, he didn't ask, but let them relax, like an elder to a child, and talk at length.

Ye Hongji smiled and said: "Today, you two can see the old man, from now on, it will be up to me to supervise your cultivation, no matter how high your cultivation was before, what your qualifications were, everything in Qiankun Academy has to start over." ”

Saying that, he put down the tea, and said, "Senior Brother Lei, did you lead the two of you to receive the necessary things?" ”

"Uncle don't worry, as soon as the two of us come, Senior Brother Lei will take us to get the things." Lin Ning and Li Mingheng both took out the black storage box and put it on the desk.

Ye Hongji saw it, nodded and said: "After entering the Qiankun Academy, the first thing you have to do is to study the Taoist Sutra, whether you have participated in the Taoist Sutra before or not, it doesn't matter, the important thing is that from today onwards, the first thing to do is to consult the Taoist Sutra and study the Taoism." ”

"No day's work can be left behind." After Ye Hongji finished speaking, he looked at the two quietly, with a touch of solemnity on his face.

For the Taoist scriptures, Lin Ning has long been familiar with the enlightenment, so if he wants to do it again, it is just a review, why is it difficult?

Moreover, studying the three volumes of the Taoist Sutra is only good for him, not harmful, and he agrees without thinking about it at the moment.

When Li Mingheng heard this, he was faintly worried that he couldn't understand the Taoist scriptures, so his cultivation didn't grow at all.

The Taoist Sutra is the method of initiation for monks, and the practice is simple, but the mysteries in the heavens are extremely infinite, but it is difficult for a few people to really see through the meaning of the pearls.

What's more, he's a person with extremely poor qualifications?

It can be seen that Ye Hongji's tone is tough, and there is no room for relaxation, and Li Mingheng has no choice but to respond hard.

"Lei Zhao, the Taoist scriptures are endless, even if the two of them have seen it before, the difficulty is that there is no guidance from others, it is difficult to achieve something, you have studied the Dao for many years, and you naturally know more than the two of them, if there is any difficulty, help them more." Ye Hongji knew that the Dao Sutra was not as simple as ordinary spells.

The qualifications of the two of them are not good, and if no one mentions them at the right time, I am afraid that they will fall into a dilemma.

"The disciple obeys." Lei Zhao didn't refuse, and agreed directly.

"Well, the purpose of participating in the Taoist Sutra is to improve the understanding of the two of you, and it is natural to have bad qualifications, but the understanding can be cultivated, which requires you to redouble your efforts." Ye Hongji's faint words touched Lin Ning and Li Mingheng very much.

Especially Li Mingheng, he thought that it would be difficult for him to have a famous teacher to guide him in his life, but now he heard Ye Hongji's Chunchun teachings, and fell into his ears, but he was afraid that it was like a golden mouth, and it was unforgettable.

He said gratefully: "The words of the master, the disciple obeys them, and they dare not forget them." ”

A satisfied smile appeared on Ye Hongji's face, "Participating in the Dao Sutra is only the first step, all new disciples who enter the Qiankun Academy, there will be a practice within two years, that is, to go to the Qingfeng Vein Bamboo Garden to cut down the black bamboo, this is a compulsory practice, the same as studying the Dao Sutra, and the rest will wait for the two of you to cultivate to reach the eleventh level of Qi refining." ”

Chopping bamboo?

Lin Ning couldn't help but be stunned for a while, although he didn't know what the reason for doing this, but listening to Ye Hongji's words, it seemed that not only he had done it, but the disciples of the entire Qiankun Academy had done it.

If you want to talk about qualifications, Lin Ning is indeed not that material, but if you want to talk about strength, he thinks that he should not talk about the rough work of chopping bamboo.

After all, he has the Nine Palaces and Twelve Heavenly Laws, compared to those monks who have never learned secular martial arts, he doesn't know how much stronger his physical body is, and others can do it, so why can't he do it himself?

When Li Mingheng heard this, he was also secretly relieved, and said secretly: "Fortunately, I just went to cut bamboo, not to learn some advanced spells." ”

He has been doing miscellaneous labor for so many years, heavy work, and he has been doing it perfectly, in addition to his poor qualifications, only this brute force makes him a little proud.

Both of them think that it will not be too difficult to cut bamboo, but they are confident.

Ye Hongji didn't say anything when he saw the two of them swearing so much, just took a sip of tea and said lightly: "Since this is the case, you will go to cultivate today, from tomorrow, I will strictly supervise you in these lessons, if it is the assessment after two years, your cultivation fails to meet my requirements, don't blame me for sweeping the floor and driving people away." ”

Ye Hongji, who was still detached before, suddenly changed and became extremely stern.

Lin Ning said goodbye and quit, and came out all the way, but he found that Lei Zhao always looked at the two of them with bad intentions......
