"Ahh Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 The childish screams of info were full of terror, echoing through the small valley, covering the tiny waterfalls. He felt that this time it was absolutely miserable, even if he couldn't fall into the flesh, his whole body would have to fall apart, especially if his butt hit the ground first, he would definitely fall into sixteen petals.

The "ugly bird" on the tree didn't seem to let Nie Tong go, and quickly pursued down. At the moment when Nie Tong was about to land on the ground, its two claws grabbed Nie Tong's hair at once, and its wings flapped rapidly, trying to drag Nie Tong up.

When he felt the sharp pain of his scalp being pulled, Nie Tong also felt a soft wind suddenly rise from under him, gently supporting his body.

On the top of the South Mountain, Old Man Lu withdrew his outgoing arm, stroked his goatee, nodded slightly, and said to himself: "Well, it's good to maintain the spirit of the contract!" ”

In the valley, there was a soft "snap", and Nie Tong fell to the ground lightly. "Ouch!" He was accustomed to wailing, but he didn't feel the maddening soreness that often came from his ass.

It's a long story, but in fact, all of this happened at the moment when Nie Tong was about to land. One hand instinctively grabbed his head, and the other hand habitually rubbed his buttocks, Nie Tong didn't catch anything, so he stroked his scalp a few times, and when he looked up, he saw the gray "ugly bird" flying straight into the cold pool and landing on the water.

"You-" Nie Tong chased after him. He wanted to express something, but he didn't know how. (Blame the old man, I blame you!) So that the kid doesn't even know how to communicate. "Ahh Ahh The meditating old man Lu sneezed twice inexplicably. He looked around suspiciously and muttered, "Who's talking about me?" Who did the old man recruit and provoke whom? ）

Nie Tong chased to the shore and saw the ugly bird swimming around in the water alone, without even looking at him. After looking closely, I found that there was a hint of indifference in its eyes. Nie Tong's heart ached inexplicably, as if he felt empathy, realizing that he wanted to remember something, but he couldn't remember anything.

What does it want to remember? Why do you have this look? Nie Tong's heart was inexplicably infected, and he became terrified, and he couldn't help but think of the death of his parents. He was a little gloomy, a sadness could not help himself, and shed a few tears.

The "ugly bird" seemed to have sensed it, and shouted a few times at Nie Tong, with helplessness, sadness, and loneliness in his voice.

Everything seems to have no reason, but there always seems to be an invisible thread that implicates Nie Tong and the ugly bird, making them feel each other and sympathize with each other!

Nie Tong wanted to say something to the ugly bird, but he didn't know how to do it. He simply sat on the shore and habitually recited the scripture to the ugly bird: "The Tao is the Tao, the Tao is very ......."

"Chirp!" The ugly bird called twice more, swam closer to Nie Tong, and responded to it. For the scriptures, it doesn't seem to be very interested.

Seeing the strange phenomenon in the valley, Old Man Lu couldn't help but laugh dumbly. He rose to his feet and descended slowly into the valley. There were no pinching tips in the fingers, no auspicious clouds under the feet, and even the air did not produce large fluctuations.

As if sensing the danger, the ugly bird in the cold pool suddenly stood on end with cold feathers and exploded its wings. It quacked, fled in terror, and scurried into the woods like lightning. As if sensing that something was wrong, it flew back in an instant, landing on top of Nie Tong's head. His eyes stared at the old man Lu who fell from the sky, the bird's beak chirped in horror, its wings flapped desperately, but its claws tightly grasped Nie Tong's hair.

Nie Tong's scalp was scratched painfully, but he didn't feel the malice of the ugly bird. He endured the pain and looked up, and saw Old Man Lu landing with a smile on his face.

"Grandpa. It's grandpa. Nie Tong shouted, raised his hand and stroked the ugly bird's head. The ugly bird seemed to trust Nie Tong very much, let him pet it a few times, and gradually quieted down.

"Well, follow me back to the cabin." Old man Lu ignored the ugly bird, threw down a word, and floated into the cabin.

The ugly bird saw Old Man Lu leave and flew into the cold pool again. Nie Tong looked at the ugly bird, turned around and walked towards the wooden house. With the experience of climbing trees, he climbed up in three or two clicks. As soon as he entered the wooden house, he found a strange phenomenon, he couldn't even see the surrounding walls, only saw Old Man Lu hanging in the air in a meditative position, looking at him with a serious face. When I looked at it again, everything around me seemed to be gone; If you listen carefully, you can't hear the sound of the waterfall or the wind, and your ears seem to be deaf.

"Hitomi knelt down and kowtowed to the master." Old man Lu said. There was a majesty in the voice that could not be refused, affecting Nie Tong's body and mind.

Nie Tong knelt down involuntarily, but wondered in his heart: Who is the master? Could it be that grandpa is the master?

"Well, from now on, grandpa will be your master. You remember, call me grandpa in front of people, but keep the master in your heart. ”

"Nowadays, the rules of apprenticeship are: worship the heavens, ask questions, and take ordination. Now that you have worshipped the Master, you don't have to worship any heavens. From now on, you only need to bow to your teacher, and you don't need to bow down under any other circumstances, and you can't bow down. You should remember that if you violate it, the master will immediately expel you from the school and never recognize the master-apprentice relationship. ”

The old man's words were sharp and unquestionable. Nie Tong nodded very seriously.

Old man Lu continued: "Asking, that is, if you ask a question that you don't understand, the master will answer it for you. Now, just ask. ”

As the saying goes, when God closes a door for you, He will open a window for you. Nie Tong's heart door was open, and the windows of his eyes and ears were also very open, but this mouth could not be opened well like a rusty iron door.

He had a lot of questions, such as where did his mother's soul go? How did that black thing turn into a bird? Why do I have an affinity for it and so on. However, he was stunned and didn't know how to express it. His mouth was open for a long time, and he couldn't speak.

Just when he was holding back his face and thick neck, Old Man Lu stroked his goatee and smiled:

"Well, that's good! You're still young, and it's right not to ask. In the future, when the understanding of the Tao has deepened, it will be more meaningful to ask in-depth questions. Then, the master will talk about 'taking the ordination'. Ordination means that you have to follow certain rules. Alas! In fact, there are many rules that do not have to be followed...... However, you must remember three points: respect the teacher, respect the way, and do not use spells to sensationalize. Hitomi, do you remember? ”

Nie Tong nodded ignorantly, and his neck turned red.

"Alright. Since you have worshipped me as a teacher, the master cannot fail to express it. This is the master's token and the secret of cultivating the truth, you can take it well. Old man Lu took out two things from his arms as he spoke. An ordinary jade pendant, a yellowed paper book. He gently sent it forward, and two items hung in front of Nie Tong's eyes.

The jade pendant is shaped like a scallop, as thin as a button, only the size of two thumb covers, translucent, with a gray-white surface, and a slightly thicker part is gray-green, strung with a red thread. Mobilize the divine sense to see, the space inside the pendant is like a small world, gray is the sky, gray green is the hanging mountains, the main peak of the mountain range, engraved with a big "land" character.

Although Nie Tong didn't know what this pendant was for, since it was given by the master, he naturally hung it around his neck. Reaching for the paper book, his arm was immediately sunk by the paper book. Fortunately, the other hand also pinched the paper book instantly, and the paper book did not fall off the ground. He didn't expect that what seemed to be a paper book with only a dozen pages was so heavy.

In addition, he discovered a strange thing. The paper is thick and yellowed, but not damaged. However, whether it is the front cover, back cover, spine of the paper book, or the dozen or so thick sheets of paper inside, not even a single word is displayed.

Nie Tong held the paper book and studied it for a long time, but he didn't have a clue, and when he was wondering, Old Man Lu solemnly explained: "The Shimen token is just a small object to prove your Shimen's identity, and it is not of much use. You don't have to show it lightly, but you should keep it safe and don't take it lightly. As for that book, as long as you study it carefully, the master believes that you will be able to see the content inside. This book is a secret treasure of the master's family, and it cannot be lost, let alone let outsiders read it. You must keep in mind what you say for the teacher. This is the respect for teachers and the way of respect. ”

Listening carefully to the master's words, Nie Tong nodded frequently. When the master stopped talking, he looked up at the master again, and saw that the master was not hanging in the air, but sitting upright on the wooden bed, looking at himself and smiling.

The walls of the wooden house came into view, and the sound of splashing springs came into my ears. His sight and hearing were back to normal. When he looked stunned, the figure of the master floated past him, flashed out of the door and disappeared. Only one sentence echoed in my ears: "You can continue to study the secrets......"

After listening to the master's words, Nie Tong pondered: Since the master said that there is content in it, there must be content, but I haven't found the right way yet, so I can't see it. What should I do? Casually sweeping his eyes over the head of the bed, he saw the board that he used to write. As if a meteor was streaked across the night sky, a thought flashed through his mind: Well, if I read a book in the same way I used to write, would I be able to see the contents of the book?

Moved, Nie Tong immediately put it into action. He quickly took the plank and went to the wall where he often practiced calligraphy, sat cross-legged, laid the plank flat on his lap, and laid the paper book flat on the board. Instead of rushing to the end and blindly flipping through the book, he meditated with peace of mind and closed his eyes.

When he was finished, he didn't open his eyes, but everything around him was in full view. This method is the divine sense of seeing things, and seeing the distance and knowing the subtle. Nie Tong can not only see inward, but also release his sense, but he doesn't know it.

His mind swept over the paper, but he still didn't see anything. Why can't you see it yet? He was suspicious in his heart, and suddenly remembered that he had burned his mother's clothes, and vaguely remembered that it seemed that a cool breath had poured into his eyes, which led to that situation. As soon as my mind moved, I felt that there was really an air flow towards my eyes. A miracle happened. He saw that there was really handwriting on the cover of the paper book: There are immortals in the world...... Lu Suifeng. The four large characters in seal script are written lightly and elegantly, and the three small characters in italics reveal the true nature of the frankness.

Nie Tong's heart became excited, and he quickly turned the page. The lines of beautiful small characters suddenly came into view: building the foundation and knotting the Dan, the immortal fan in one step. Refining is still Qi, and life is at stake......
