Chapter 238: Apprenticeship
Tang Xuyou thought about it, but he really couldn't think of it.
I had to smile bitterly and said, "You don't want to cover it up mysteriously, what exactly do you want to do, let's be honest." β
Tang Chengnian smiled and maintained the action of arching her hand, making it in her shape, which was not strict, but it was a little funny.
"I'm here to apprentice." She laughed.
"Apprenticeship?" Tang Xuyou hesitated for a moment and added, "Me? β
"Elder Tang, you're obviously pretending to be confused! I came to the inner gate, I didn't go anywhere, the first one to come was you, and the person I was looking for was you, besides you, who else could I learn from? Tang Chengnian was still smiling.
Tang Xuyou was a little embarrassed, but more still puzzled.
He was indeed confused: "But how did you think of apprenticeship with me?" β
This time, Tang Chengnian, who really understood it, showed a confused expression again: "Elder Tang said this, doesn't he want to accept me as an apprentice?" β
Tang Xuyou was annoyed, how could he answer this!
If she says no, then she will definitely hit the snake with the stick; If you say yes, then you will properly offend the beginning of tomorrow.
At this moment, Tang Xuyou couldn't help but think, could it be that he offended the beginning of Ming Chu when he didn't know it, and he deliberately rectified himself?
"Hahaha...... I'm kidding, Elder Tang, don't worry, this matter is not my uncle's idea. β
Tang Chengnian burst out laughing for no reason, and hurriedly said.
Tang Xuyou smiled bitterly: "You kid ......"
He thought for a moment and asked, "So...... Is it Elder Mingyue? He was referring to Ming Yuejin.
Tang Chengnian hurriedly shook his head, "This is not my little uncle's idea. β
It seems that Ming Yuejin has not been less tidy than these inner door elders on weekdays, and if you think about it carefully, this group of elders who are powerful in front of outsiders have to live under the rule of the ice cube Ming Yue Yue and the tricky Ming Yue Jin, which is also quite miserable.
Of course, she only had to gloat.
Tang Chengnian smiled secretly, but he didn't expect that his glittering eyes had already betrayed him. Although Tang Xuyou didn't know what she was thinking. But it was almost guessed.
He shook his head helplessly, knowing that he couldn't be pushed off his master-apprentice status, but he was so naughty that he was no less than her little uncle's apprentice, he was really not sure if he could control it. What's more. Tang Xuyou still didn't understand why Tang Chengnian had to worship him as a teacher, not early tomorrow? Isn't Mingyue Jin good? What's so special about him, if he is close, he thinks he hasn't met her a few times, especially after handing her over to Chang Xinchen's care - to be honest, according to him, Chang Xinchen is probably closer to Tang Chengnian than him.
If he couldn't dispel this doubt, Tang Xuyou didn't dare to accept her as an apprentice.
Of course, because of the beginning of Ming and Ming Yuejin, if Tang Chengnian can give him a reasonable reason. Naturally, he would not refuse.
"Miss Tang, you and I know each other, let's just say it, why do you have to worship me as a teacher? β¦β¦ IMHO, whether it's the head of Mingyue. They are still Elder Mingyue, their cultivation is higher than mine, and they have experience in educating disciples, so they must be more suitable to be a master than me. Even if you leave these aside, the head of Mingyue and Elder Mingyue are still your two uncles, if you talk about trust, I don't think I'm qualified to compare with them, right? "Tang Xuyou is not a presumptuous person. But he is not a person with empty eyes, what he is best at is finding his own position.
He was the only one who couldn't understand it, and if he couldn't solve it, he wouldn't dare to feel at ease.
Tang Xuyou said a big call freely, but he didn't hear an answer for a long time.
If it was usual, he said so much. I'm afraid Tang Chengnian should have smashed back with a long string of words, right?
He sighed and thought to himself, could it be that he has some masochistic habits, and he is not happy if he is not scolded?
"Ahem."
Tang Chengnian coughed. Pulled Tang Xuyou's attention back.
He hurriedly looked at Tang Chengnian, with the appearance of a fairy wind and bones on his face, but he was so nervous in his heart that he was to death.
Now that he has finished speaking, he is worried that he will offend Tang Chengnian if he talks too much.
Fortunately, Tang Xuyou's heart didn't have time to go up and down before he got a response from Tang Chengnian.
"Elder Tang don't worry, you are a person trusted by the eldest uncle and the younger uncle, and I will naturally believe in you as much as they do. Even if you say so much today, it's only because of your cautious personality that with someone like you as a master, I'm relieved that it's too late. Tang Chengnian spoke first to appease, but she had already expressed her attitude very obviously, that is, this master-apprentice status, she was convinced, "As for why don't you apprentice to the eldest uncle and the younger uncle...... It's really not a good aspect. β
Tang Xuyou asked hesitantly, "Is this because of this?" β
"I'm saying it too generally." Tang Chengnian chuckled, "In fact, my identity, except for people close to you, has to be hidden." My dad and my mom...... I don't know when I offended people, they didn't dare to be angry with my father, but it didn't mean that they didn't dare to be angry with me, I was just a seven-year-old child, and I was just a little foundation-building monk, tidying me up, and even ...... It couldn't have been easier to kidnap me. If I apprentice to my eldest uncle or younger uncle, I am living under the noses of others, and sooner or later I will be seen to be flawed, so for this reason, I must not apprentice to two uncles. β
She explained in great detail, and after listening to Tang Xuyou, she couldn't find any problems.
He asked, "Well, why me?" You can't apprentice to the head of Mingyue or Elder Mingyue in person, but it's okay to ask them for advice in private. β
Tang Xuyou really has no experience as a master, and he is not good at the fire spirit root spell, so he is afraid that it will delay Tang Chengnian.
Tang Chengnian hurriedly explained: "You don't have to worry, the two uncles do often advise me. β
"Then why do you have to apprentice? Isn't it okay if you don't have a Master? Tang Xuyou was puzzled.
"You are an elder of the inner gate, and you have a special identity, so naturally you don't know that a disciple who does not have a master will be oppressed a lot in the inner gate." Tang Chengnian was also a little irritable when he thought of this. When she was not famous before, from the outer door to the inner door, from the inner door to the outer door, it was still comfortable, but now that the inner disciples recognize her face, there are more people who come to find trouble.
Obviously, he was just passing by, and he was intercepted three times. Three times!
She is not afraid of challenges, or even provocations, but she is always being troubled, like a fly that cannot be killed, flying around every day, buzzing, buzzing. It doesn't hurt, it's annoying!
Tang Chengnian said very resolutely: "I need to use your identity to be a shield, at least I can screen out those useless people, and after that, I really want to trouble me, so I can think of some smart ways." I think it's always more interesting to fight wits and courage than to be harassed all the time. β
She said it for granted and with good reason.
But because of this, Tang Xuyou thought about teasing her: "But why should I help you?" β
"For the sake of our mentorship!" Tang Chengnian said with a smile.
At first, Tang Xuyou didn't understand what she meant, "What do I want to do with the love of master and apprentice?" β
Tang Chengnian pretended to be disappointed and shook his head: "If Elder Tang doesn't understand, then I'm afraid I'm really worried about whether you are suitable to be my master......
Although there were many deliberate ingredients, Tang Xuyou still heard a trace of hesitation.
It's really strange, when Tang Chengnian wanted to recognize him as a master before, Tang Xuyou was a little unhappy, but now that Tang Chengnian was about to leave, he was even more unhappy.
Tang Xuyou saw that Tang Chengnian refused to say anything, knowing that this was testing him!
But what did Tang Chengnian mean by that?
He lowered his head and pondered.
The love of mentorship and apprenticeship......
Master and apprentice ......
Mutual affection......
Master and apprentice ......
Could it be that the point is this "master and apprentice"?
Got it! Tang Xuyou laughed.
"Hahaha...... Little Miss Tang, you are really generous! β
"I take the liberty of saying that you did take advantage of it, and I accepted this evaluation generously." Tang Chengnian reciprocated with the same smile.
She naturally wouldn't be naΓ―ve to think that because she was Ming Chu's niece, Tang Xuyou would help her unconditionally.
Even if it's just for the status of a master and apprentice.
Therefore, from the very beginning, Tang Chengnian had already proposed her payment.
And that reward, in her words, is also in her request.
Coming and going, it is still the same sentence, the status of master and apprentice.
The love of master and apprentice.
Master and apprentice.
No matter what agreement there is between her and Tang Xuyou this time, in the eyes of outsiders, they are masters and apprentices.
All in one.
If she is angry, people will only say how competitive Tang Xuyou's apprentice is.
If she gets ahead in the future, these glories will also be draped on Tang Xuyou's body.
Although this is the cultivation realm, it is also an ancient era after all, and once the master-apprentice status is established, it is difficult to give up. Moreover, this has nothing to do with feelings, but is an unspoken rule established in the world, if someone does not abide by it, it is the enemy of the whole people - that means that today's Tang Chengnian's remuneration is actually supervised by the people of the world.
Although he had to wait for Tang Chengnian to grow into a person who could have a place in the eyes of the world's monks, Tang Chengnian was full of confidence in himself. And what Tang Xuyou has to do is to bet on whether she can become famous.
He just can't, he doesn't actually suffer much.
There is no harm in all the benefits, and the fool will not agree.
Tang Xuyou immediately nodded and agreed: "Okay, I'll take you to the deacon's hall to register later." β
Once the status of master and apprentice is registered and the sect is announced, it is considered established.
Tang Chengnian immediately bowed down again, and automatically and consciously changed his title: "Meet Master!" β
"Okay, these false gifts are enough, and when the registration is completed, drink a cup of apprenticeship tea, and it will be fine." Tang Xuyou wouldn't really feel that she was Tang Chengnian's true master, after all, she had just said that she had been teaching her at the beginning of tomorrow. Not to mention that he had no experience in teaching apprentices before, even if he had, he could only be called a class with an axe in front of the beginning of tomorrow. RP
