"Since you are willing to worship me as a teacher, then as a teacher, on behalf of the Maoshan faction, accept you, but ......" Ru Yangzhen, the old Taoist who looked directly into Lu Yu's eyes, continued after pondering for a moment: "Considering your current specific situation, it is impossible for you to be willing to become a monk and become a Taoist, so the teacher only accepts you as a disciple of the Maoshan layman, and one day you sincerely cut off the fate of the dust, it is not too late for you to become a disciple of Maoshan again......"

"Master Xie understands ......" After listening to the words of the old Taoist Ruyangzhen, Lu Yu, who also knew that it was impossible for him to become a monk, made a long bow to the cheap master he had just worshipped.

"Good ......" After seeing his new apprentice so knowledgeable, the old relieved Ru Yangzhen nodded with satisfaction, and then, Ru Lao Dao, who was more than two heads shorter than his new apprentice Lu Yu, raised his hand and patted Lu Yu's arm, and said in a deep voice: "As for other things, let's talk about it later, now, let's deal with the evil ghost in the county school first......"

"Okay, master......" After listening to his cheap master's words, Lu Yu nodded and replied, he understood that now, although his master Ruyang really wanted to say something to himself, there may be a lot more, but with the "outsider" Zhang Hongwen present, he was reluctant to say more, after all, talking too much might reveal the secrets of the Maoshan faction, so ......

For the "outsider" Zhang Hongwen, although he had just witnessed the "wonder of the world" of apprenticeship on the street, he was not surprised, and the reason was very simple, because, in the Great Song Dynasty, Taoism was the state religion, and many court officials would take the initiative to worship some famous Taoist priests as teachers, not to mention ordinary people like Lu Yu.

And the reason why the Taoist church became the state religion of the Song Dynasty is because, the emperors of the Song Dynasty, I don't know which Taoist classics saw that the name of the Jade Emperor is Zhao Xuanlang, and the Jade Emperor represents heaven, and the emperor of their old Zhao family is the Son of Heaven, and the Son of Heaven must be the blood of the Jade Emperor in the world.

Therefore, in order to emphasize that he is the authentic descendant of the Jade Emperor Zhao Xuanlang, and his throne is ordered by heaven, the emperors surnamed Zhao of the Song Dynasty continue to take out the "iron evidence" that can prove that they have a blood relationship with the Jade Emperor, and those "iron evidence" are all from Taoist classics, therefore, with the emperor's strong support, Taoism in the Song Dynasty became more and more mixed and strong, and became the state religion.

In fact, just now, at the moment when he witnessed Lu Yu's apprenticeship, Zhang Hongwen also wanted to kneel down and apprentice together, but in the end, considering that Ru Laodao is an elder of the Maoshan faction, he is likely to look down on himself, and if he worships someone else as a teacher, the other party directly refuses his words, then his face will be lost, and in the future, he may not be able to come out to mix, so in the end, when Lu Yu knelt down to apprentice, Zhang Hongwen just bent his knees slightly, and did not really kneel down with him.

Of course, for Zhang Hongwen's "very inconspicuous" body language, the careful Lu Yu, and the advanced veteran Ruyang Zhen have all seen it, and even Miao Zhu Xuanyihong, who has not spoken, has also seen it.

Originally, Xuan Yihong wanted to accept Zhang Hongwen as an apprentice, because he felt that this Zhang Hongwen was quite clever and a young man worth "cultivating", but after perceiving Zhang Hongwen's hesitant and tangled emotions, Xuan Yihong, who instantly felt that this young man was too deep in the city, finally gave up on him.

Zhang Hongwen, who didn't know that he had lost a good opportunity, raised his hand and patted open the south gate of the county school, and the one who opened the door was the "county school sweeping monk" Liu Zhuang, who was seventy years old, and his sleep had already changed very little, so when he opened the door, he had been "morning exercise" for a long time.

"How to open the door...... Zhang Hongwen, who didn't look down on Liu Zhuang as a gatekeeper, raised his hand to invite Xuan Yihong and Ru Yangzhen to enter the door.

And after glancing at the Taoist clothes on Xuan Yihong and Ruyang Zhen, Liu Zhuang, the "county school sweeping monk", didn't say anything, and directly let them in.

And Lu Yu, who was the last to enter the door, whispered an apology to Liu Zhuang when he passed by him: "I'm sorry, senior, I disturbed you to rest......"

"It's okay, let's go in......" After listening to Lu Yu's apologetic words, Liu Zhuang, the "county school sweeping monk", smiled slightly, and replied, and then, he waved his hand lightly, asking Lu Yu to leave quickly, don't make a mistake, and then, he turned around and closed the door again.

Lu Yu, who is Zhang Hongwen's friend, although he was quite disgusted by Zhang Hongwen's behavior just now, but he also understood that he couldn't fall out with his teacher's son because of such a thing, and finally, after shaking his head helplessly and smiling bitterly, Lu Yu turned around and followed Zhang Hongwen who led the way, and didn't say anything.

When he arrived at the gate of the courtyard where the county school student dormitory was located, Lu Yu saw that the courtyard was already crowded with people, and the first person in that group of people was the "Four Heavenly Kings of County School", and around the "Four Heavenly Kings", there were also gathered around the lively county school students, these students lived in the county school dormitory, and the haunted house was the easternmost room in the dormitory.

When he found that the teachers and students in the county school were waiting outside the door of the haunted house, Lu Yu immediately understood, it seems that Zhang Hongwen took the matter of inviting someone to reseal the haunted house as his "political achievement", and it was already publicized in the county school, but what Zhang Hongwen didn't expect was that he who only planned to invite Xuan Yihong to come over alone actually "bumped into" Ru Yangzhen, the elder of the Maoshan faction, and originally just resealed the haunted house, which directly became a ghost hunt.

In order not to rob Zhang Hongwen of his "political achievements", Lu Yu gave Zhang Hong the matter of introducing two veterans to the four teachers of the county school.

Under Zhang Hongwen's recommendation, the teachers and veterans who had no intersection in the "field of work" greeted each other and exchanged two nonsense words.

After saying the nonsense, Ru Yangzhen, the free and easy elder of Maoshan, directly opened his mouth to Li Jing, the "senior" of the county school, and ordered: "For a while, I will do it here, Senior Li, it is best to let the students stay away from here, in case something unexpected ...... happens."

"I understand...... Li Jing, who saw with his own eyes what the evil ghost in this haunted house looked like when he was young, after listening to Ru Yangzhen's instructions, he directly complied with his request, and among the "natives" in the county school, only Lu Yu was left by Ru Yangzhen.

At this moment, no one else has retreated several feet away from the door of the haunted house, and there, only Lao Dao Xuan Yihong, Ru Yang Zhen, and Ru Yang Zhen's newly recruited apprentice Lu Yu are left.

"Do you know how to use enchantment talismans......" After taking out a few light blue enchantment talismans from his cuffs and handing them to Lu Yu, Ru Yangzhen asked Lu Yu in a low voice.

"Back to the master, the apprentice knows how to use it," after nodding and whispering back to his master, Lu Yu added with a little hesitation: "But ......"
