Chapter 23: The Benefactor
Changsheng couldn't cross the Phantom Bridge, and the Jade Void disciple took her out of the Taixu Wonderland. The pen "fun" pavilion www.biquge.info untie the sword, and the sword will send the immortal to the top of the mountain of its dust view, the name of the view comes from the Tao Te Ching in the "frustration of its sharpness, the solution of its conflict, and its light, with its dust." "There is the meaning of participation and scenery, and the same dust and image.
Sima Luming and the four of them entered the Dust View directly from the entrance on the side of the Illusion Bridge of the Taixu Immortal Realm, and they had already met the head of the Guanzhong and the three elders first.
Changsheng saw that he had obviously fallen into the water, and he thought it was a burden that he would not come back, but he was tied up and rested on the table of the Eight Immortals. The head of the sect, Daoist Xu Qing, picked up the jade plate that Yan Wuming gave to Changsheng, with a childish face and kind eyebrows, and asked, "Is this yours?" ”
Changsheng saw that Xu Qing was approachable, and relieved some nervousness, she thought that most of the people who could be the head of the sect were very majestic, she nodded and said, "My father-in-law asked me to take it and let the head of the sect take me in." ”
Xu Qing asked, "What's your father-in-law's surname?" ”
Changsheng replied, "My father's surname is Yan, and he said that life is in the world, and the life obtained does not bring death or take it, including the name. That's why it's called nameless. ”
Hearing this, Xu Qing confirmed the guess in his heart, beckoned to Changsheng, and called her to him, "I once owed your father-in-law a favor, and promised that one day if he comes with a jade card, as long as I can do my best, I will definitely do my best to repay him this favor." It's just that I didn't expect it to be him. ”
Xu Qing put the jade plate into the baggage, and returned the baggage to its original owner to Changsheng.
There was a female Taoist priest sitting next to Xu Qing, wearing a pale gray Taoist robe, her long hair was tied into a bun with a purple hosta, a pair of sword eyebrows were wrinkled, and her expression was stern.
She heard that Xu Qing's words seemed to have the intention of taking Changsheng under the door, and her tone was full of impersonal feelings, and said, "Although there is no explicit text, it has become an unchanging rule for a hundred years to only break through the Taixu Immortal Realm and cross the Phantom Bridge to be included in the door." Senior brother in charge is not going to break this rule today. ”
Xu Qing said frankly, "I really want to include this child in the Yuxu Sect. But it's not just for selfishness. I knew her father-in-law from the same time. If she hadn't encountered some difficulties, her stepfather would not have asked her to come all the way to come alone, and if she was allowed to go back like this, it would be the same as seeing people in danger but not saving her, which is contrary to the chivalrous righteousness of my faction. ”
Shen Ling said, "It's not unheard of people who have encountered trouble and went up to the mountain to apprentice and want to seek the protection of the Jade Void Sect, senior brother, you made an exception today, which is equivalent to setting a precedent, and in the future, those who have unspeakable secrets but have a little qualification to come to apprentice, do you have to accept all the orders." She turned her head to look at the other two Taoist priests, "Fei Heng, don't the two senior brothers of Zhongmiao have any objections." ”
The Taoist priest named Feiheng didn't want to wade into this muddy water, so he didn't say a word.
And the fat Taoist priest called Zhongmiao is more afraid of Shen Ling's pungency than the peace who went to the head, if he offends her, he is afraid that she will hold a grudge and hold a grudge for several years, "What the senior sister said is not unreasonable." If the senior brother in charge takes pity on this child, there is a compromise method, or a gift of silver taels, or there is not a hut on the mountainside that can allow her to live temporarily, and it does not necessarily have to be accepted as an apprentice. ”
Jiang Qu muttered in a low voice, "What's the difference between this and using silver." ”
Shen Ling said solemnly, "If you really have the heart to learn from a teacher, the first point is to understand what is respecting the teacher, who this Jade Void Sect wants to accept, and who you don't accept, where you can put your beak." Don't say that you haven't entered my door yet, even if you do, you can be expelled from the sect if there is no one in your eyes. ”
Jiang Qu pursed his lips disapprehantly, Fei Heng took a fancy to Jiang Qu's qualifications, and he was already interested in taking him into the room, although he didn't want to get involved in the dispute between Shen Ling and the head of the house, but when it came to Jiang Qu, he had to jump out and say something.
Fei Hengdao, "Could it be that the Jade Void Sect is the junior sister who is in charge alone?" It is true that these juniors can't talk a lot about who the Jade Void Sect wants to accept, but it's not up to the junior sister to decide. ”
Shen Ling looked sideways and said, "What do you mean by this, Senior Brother?" ”
Fei Heng said expressionlessly, "You don't understand what I mean?" Since you are educating these juniors to respect their teachers, then what did the master say when he was dying, since the position of the head of the family has been passed on to the senior brother, everything should only be listened to by the master. Now he just wants to accept it from his apprentice, and he has to get your approval and consent, who allowed you to override your senior brother. ”
Shen Ling frowned and said, "What are you saying, I don't allow it, it's to follow the door rules, are you and I for my own selfishness?" ”
Fei Heng asked rhetorically, "Which door rule stipulates that disciples who are not allowed to enter the Phantom Bridge?" But you will point it out and show it to me, and if there is, I will be convinced, and I will not say anything more. ”
"Alright." Xu Qing broke off the dispute between Shen Ling and Feiheng, and glanced back at the statue of Hong Jun Ancestor, "Cultivation is the most jealous and impetuous, and you are not afraid of losing your cultivation." ”
Gu Changsheng was a little embarrassed to cause these people to quarrel unhappily for the sake of herself, she said, "The rules were made clear when I entered the Illusory Realm, but I was useless." Don't be embarrassed. ”
Xu Qing looked at her eyes without distractions, and smiled, "Child, you have a kind heart. Even if he is a disciple with good talents, it does not mean that he will be able to achieve his own chances. Since the establishment of the Jade Void Sect, there have been countless disciples, and few of them can achieve success, even if I am the head of the sect, my ability is not good. It's just because the master didn't give up that he became the head of the house. The so-called cultivation of the Tao does not only mean that you have to cultivate a whole body of ability, to attain the Tao and attain the Tao, and the right path is also the Tao, and if you do not give up your heart after entering the path, it is not for nothing. ”
Xu Qing's reasoning was too long, and Gu Changsheng only felt that he didn't seem to understand it when he heard it. Gu Changsheng is honest, if she understands, if she doesn't understand, she doesn't understand, she can't play the trick of pretending to understand, she has a few big words engraved on her head.
Shen Ling didn't like it even more when he looked at it, accepting this kind of stupid disciple to get started, it was simply to laugh and be generous. "Boss ......"
Xu Qing raised his hand to stop it, the new disciples were all selected by Shen Ling and included in their respective sects, and he was busy with the affairs of his own sect, so far he had only accepted one disciple. "I have decided that there is no class to teach, I will accept her as a disciple and teach her personally, so I don't have to bother my junior brothers and sisters."
Before Xu Qing's words fell, he heard someone laughing wildly, very unscrupulously. Compared with Shen Ling, Fei Heng and these people are serious eight hundred, although Changsheng feels that it is their seriousness that makes the people around them depressed and then at a loss. But with the statue of Hong Jun's ancestor on it, it seems that he shouldn't be too presumptuous.
"Senior brother wants to accept her as an apprentice, but it can't be."
Gu Changsheng looked back, the drunken Taoist priest he had seen at the Yunlai Inn that day, his beard was even more sloppy than the last time. I haven't taken care of myself for a long time, and I staggered in with a gourd of wine in one hand.
Xu Qing seemed to be very surprised, "Senior brother." ”
Gu Changsheng was also surprised, although he was wearing a Taoist robe, he was full of wine and his mouth was a little upside down, and he looked at it horizontally and vertically, and he was not quite the same as the righteous and self-respecting cultivator disciple in the Yuxu Sect, but he was the junior disciple of the head of the sect.
She was about to burst out and shout uncle.
But seeing that Sima Luming, who was silent, actually knelt down and shouted, "Benefactor." ”
