On the second day, Zhu Hao went to the Zhenshan Dart Bureau and officially learned Xingyi Boxing from Liu Zhenshan. Also together are Liu Zhenshan's youngest son Liu Fangze and his youngest grandson Liu Maozong, who has just turned seventeen, and Liu Fangze is only in his early twenties, teaching two people kung fu, and Liu Zhenshan is on the side from time to time to point.

After a few days like this, Zhu Shouyi called Zhu Hao to him and said, "Child, tomorrow I will take you to Daming Temple to visit Master Wuming." ”

"Dad, who is Master Wuming?"

"Speaking of Master Wuming, it is also quite related to our family, when he was a righteous brother with your grandfather, I don't know why he came to Daming Temple to become a monk, your grandfather is secretive about him, so he doesn't know much about his father, but Master Wuming is a scholar and kind-hearted, you must not lose your manners when you see it."

Daming Temple is located in the north of Yangzhou on the Shu Gang, was built in the Southern Dynasty Song Wu Emperor Ming Dynasty, since the founding of the Ming Dynasty, because of the relationship between the word "Daming", the imperial court also attaches great importance to this temple, has always been prosperous incense.

After nightfall, in a wing room in the backyard of Daming Temple, an old monk sits on his legs, with gray hair, about seventy years old, with a charitable face, but occasionally a ray of light flashes in his eyes, showing extraordinary wisdom, which is the host of Master Wuming. Sitting opposite him was a green shirt scribe about thirty years old, clear and elegant, with a talent, this person's name was Li Qiankun, a disciple of Master Wuming.

I only heard Li Qiankun say: "I don't know what is important for the master to recruit disciples in a hurry?" ”

"Qiankun, in the past few days, I have been observing the sky at night and found a strange scene, the emperor star seems to have moved southward."

"Ah, how can this be?" Li Qiankun was taken aback, he studied under Master Wuming, and he was also quite insightful in astronomy and astronomy, and he was familiar with the most mysterious celestial phenomena Emperor Star, generally speaking, once the momentum of the Emperor Star was determined, it was extremely difficult to change.

"Master, didn't your old man already say ten years ago that when the emperor star moves eastward, a new dynasty will be born in the east?"

"Yes, back then, Lao Qu calculated with ancestral stargazing that the number of Ming Qi has been exhausted, Longxing is northeast, and the Jurchens should have the world. Therefore, the Eastern Emperor Star should be brighter and brighter, but the stars have changed a little in the past few days, the Eastern Emperor Star has flickered, but there is a new star in the southern star group of the crape myrtle center, although its potential is far less than that of the Eastern Emperor Star, but the lifeline is strong, and it is unlimited. ”

"Which master could have figured out the specific location of the nova?"

"Alas, maybe it's because the old man is not perfect, the celestial phenomena of the past few days are the most chaotic I have encountered, I can only roughly calculate that it is in the Jianghuai area, and the others are indeed blurry." Master Wuming shook his head and frowned.

"What about the disciple, where should I go?" Li Qiankun hurriedly asked. Master Wuming glanced at him with a little dissatisfaction, and said, "You have been participating in Zen for more than ten years, why are you still so impatient." The current situation is unclear, so you won't go north for the time being, and you will have your own place to use it when the time comes. ”

"Yes, the disciple knows his mistake." Li Qiankun said with some shame.

"Qiankun, I feel a little guilty as a teacher, I was forced to stop you from going north, I don't want to see what you have learned in vain, and I don't want to see you become an alien eagle dog, no matter how far you and I are out of the world, after all, we are all Han people, and the northern Hulu have always been fierce and barbaric, if they occupy the country, I don't know how many people will die innocently, and then you and I will become the fingers of thousands of people, leaving a thousand years of infamy." Master Wuming said with a solemn face.

Li Qiankun is already in a cold sweat, he was an orphan, was adopted by Master Wuming when he was a teenager, and taught him what he had learned, Li Qiankun hid in the mountains for more than ten years, lonely and unbearable, and had no ambitions to display, so he traveled down the mountain, seeing that the Ming Dynasty was faint and mediocre, and the number of qi was about to be exhausted, and the Jurchen people outside the Guanwai were politically clear and strong, and they were not deeply educated, and the heart of the Chinese Yi was not deep, so he came up with the idea of going to Liaodong, but was opposed by Master Wuming, and today he heard the master's lesson, and couldn't help but feel deeply frightened.

Master Wuming saw that he had the heart to repent, and it was inconvenient to delve into it, and said: "From tomorrow onwards, you will continue to practice in the mountains, and you must not be approved by the teacher, and you must know that it is always beneficial to practice more things." ”

"Yes, the disciple obeys."

Early the next morning, Zhu Shouyi took his son Zhu Hao out of the city and went to Daming Temple, accompanied by Ding Luoyunqu, the number one family of the Zhu family, this person is thirty years old, very capable, and his martial arts are also counted in the Jianghuai Green Forest. Grateful to Zhu Shouyi for saving his life, he sold himself to the Zhu family and became Zhu Shouyi's right-hand man, leading the family.

Zhu Hao went out of the city for the first time since his memory was opened, and he was very excited, and he kept asking questions along the way. Although Yangzhou is located in the north of the Yangtze River, the scenery of the people is no different from that of the south of the Yangtze River, the warm breeze is smoky, and the scenery is very good.

It didn't take long to arrive at Daming Temple, and after the monk reported to him, Zhu's father and son were invited to the abbot's meditation room. After seeing the ceremony, Zhu Shouyi said: "It's really a shame to disturb the master's Qing Xiu, I took the liberty to come with a dog today, and I hope that the master will not hesitate to teach." ”

"Virtuous nephew is polite, I am married to your father, and your child is my grandchild, child, come and let me see you."

Zhu Hao stepped forward, Master Wuming looked at it kindly for a while, suddenly his eyes flashed, his brows furrowed slightly, as if he had thought of some difficult problem, after a while, he smiled slightly, put his palms together and said: "Good and good, virtuous nephews don't have to worry, everything has cause and effect, don't force it, this child is a blessed person, and his achievements in the future are limitless." ”

Listening to Master Wuming's words, Zhu Shouyi's hanging heart was put down, he had always been convinced of this Master Wuming, and he was determined to cultivate Zhu Hao well.

The two chatted a few more words, and the father and son got up to say goodbye, leaving Master Wuming in the meditation room with a deep contemplative face.
