37. Apprenticeship
The Rolls-Royce Phantom stopped at the door of Lu Zutang, and Chen Zhiyu said to Luo Kang in the back seat: "Boss, it's here." ”
Luo Kang heard Chen Zhiyu calling him, reluctantly cheered up, got out of the car, walked to the outside of Lu Zutang's gatehouse, and lightly buckled the door knocker, but Chen Zhiyu did not get out of the car, waiting for Luo Kang in the car.
"Who?" In the gatehouse, an old man said.
"The younger generation was entrusted by Xue Zhongshan and Xue Ye to visit Zhang Zhilong's seniors." Luo Kang said outside the door.
The old man said, "Come in!" ”
Luo Kang opened the door and walked into the room, in front of a shabby small table, there was a long-haired old man, wearing a loose white Tai Chi exercise clothes, peanuts and pine nut tripe on the table, and a bottle of Zhigu sorghum wine, and he was holding the wine cup in his hand, savoring it carefully.
"Xue Ye was also good when he was alive!" Luo Kang said to himself.
"He is also half of Tianjin, and it is normal to love the wine made from the water of the Haihe River. You're Luo Kang! Zhang Zhilong put down the wine cup and said to Luo Kang.
Luo Kang was a little surprised, and he said, "It's the junior, have you seen me?" ”
"Nakayama described your form to me before leaving, and he asked me to take you as an apprentice on his behalf and teach you the essence of the True Religion. But this apprenticeship can't be wishful thinking, are you willing? Zhang Zhilong asked Luo Kang.
"I can't leave home yet!" Thinking that he had not married Lin Zi yet, Luo Kang said reluctantly.
Zhang Zhilong saw Luo Kang's concerns, and said: "Our Quanzhen Sect does not have as strict rules and precepts as Buddhism, isn't Zhongshan still married and has children, you don't have to worry about these." ”
"It's good that I don't ask for anything, I'm not very obedient." Luo Kang said.
Zhang Zhilong smiled, picked up a chopstick from the table with his right hand, and picked up the pine nut belly with his left hand and threw it into the air.
Luo Kang said: "Your old man moves so fast, I may not be able to poke a hole in my little belly." ”
"Young man, it seems that your eyes are not very good!" Zhang Zhilong said and handed the small belly with chopsticks to Luo Kang.
Luo Kang looked at it and saw that there were three holes in his lower belly, and he was immediately stunned.
"This trick is called "One Qi and Three Qings"" Zhang Zhilong said, sitting on a chair.
"It's because I have eyes and don't know Mount Tai, the master is above, please accept the apprentice's grandson!" Luo Kang swept away his disdainful attitude just now and respectfully bowed to his teacher.
"Okay, good, this is a little bit of an apprentice, this master can't let you scream in vain, I'll give you a few gifts as a meeting gift." Zhang Zhilong took out four books from the drawer and handed three of them to Luo Kang.
"These three books are your introductory assignments." Zhang Zhilong introduced in turn. Although this Prajna Heart Sutra is a Buddhist scripture, its concept coincides with the teachings of my Quanzhen Sect of "suffering oneself and benefiting others", you must memorize it, and it will be beneficial in the future. ”
Zhang Zhilong pointed to the second book and said: "This is the "Quanzhen Sword Technique", which is the foundation of the Quanzhen Martial Arts, which is full of pictures and texts, and it is a full-color page, which is most suitable for people like you who have no foundation to learn by themselves." ”
He then pointed to the third book and said, "This is the Song of the Quanzhen Dao, which is the superior mental method of the Quanzhen Martial Arts, you have to memorize it, and it will have a double effect on learning the first two books." ”
Luo Kang, a scumbag, saw the book, and he had a headache from the bones, this time it was still three, and the symptoms of the cold became more and more serious, he grabbed his hair and said: "Master, you give me so much homework at one time, I'm afraid I have more than enough heart and not enough strength!" ”
"Hahaha, if Zhongshan understands you, he knows that you will shirk so much, so I have prepared a fourth book for you." Zhang Zhilong showed Luo Kang the book he had just taken out of the drawer, but had not handed it to Luo Kang, with a heartfelt joy and a somewhat sinister smile on his face.
Seeing Zhang Zhilong's expression, Luo Kang immediately had a little ominous premonition, and couldn't help but take a few steps back.
"Boy, do you still want to run?" Zhang Zhilong said this, and then quickly grabbed Luo Kang's right hand with his left hand.
Zhang Zhilong waved his right hand, and just relying on the palm wind, he cut a long wound on Luo Kang's right palm, and a lot of blood suddenly flowed out, and Luo Kang, who was in pain, kept calling his mother.
Zhang Zhilong used Luo Kang's blood to write Luo Kang's name on the fourth book, and then cut his fingers with his palm wind, and also wrote his name on the book with blood.
He happily said, "After more than 70 years, I finally have the opportunity to use this book." ”
Luo Kang endured the pain and said, "Master, what are you doing?" ”
"If you don't hold back your mouth and insult your ancestors, you should be punished with electric shock. Boy, look here! I saw that Zhang Zhilong had already opened the page of the book, facing Luo Kang, and the Chinese characters on the book one by one appeared on the originally blank pages in turn.
Luo Kang looked at the words on the book: Disobedient to the teacher, electric shock, July 18. Then, a bolt of lightning appeared out of thin air from the book, directly knocking Luo Kang to the ground, and it took him half a day to recover.
"This book is amazing! Not bad! Zhang Zhilong muttered alone.
"Master, I'm convinced, what kind of means are you?" Luo Kang slowly got up from the ground.
"This book is called "Discipline and Discipline", and it is a treasure of the Quanzhen Sect, which was passed down to me by my master back then, and I have never had the opportunity to use it. This book is specially used to teach disobedient disciples, the names of the master and the disciple are written on the cover in blood, and the contract is reached, and the master's orders are all displayed on the paper, and if the apprentice does not obey, the "Discipline Rules" will punish according to the severity of the situation. From today onwards, this "Discipline Rules" must not leave you a hundred steps away, and I will assign it every day, and if you fail to complete it, the consequences will be the same as just now. Zhang Zhilong said to Luo Kang.
After listening to this, Luo Kang had already greeted Zhang Zhilong and Xue Ye's family more than a hundred times in his heart, but he couldn't say it. "Master, I understand, in the future, I will study hard, make progress every day, and contribute to the four modernizations when I grow up." Luo Kang said whimsily.
"It's good to know that I'm scared, didn't Nakayama ask you to bring me something?" Zhang Zhilong asked.
"Don't you say I almost forgot, Xue Ye asked my girlfriend to tell me and give this to you." After speaking, Luo Kang took out the "Three Qing Charms" from his arms, and there was an envelope in the book, on which were written the words Zhang Zhilong himself.
Zhang Zhilong opened the envelope, and inside was a letter and a bank card. After reading the letter, Zhang Zhilong muttered alone: "Your master and I are both over 70 years old, and I have to let you hear your face, this "Discipline Rules" should have been used for you in the first place." After saying that, he smiled helplessly.
"Master, what did my master say in his letter?" Luo Kang asked.
"He said that I would have the opportunity to instruct a little girl named Lin Zi to learn the art of charms, this girl has a very poor physique, but she has very high qualifications and will definitely succeed." Zhang Zhilong said.
After listening to this, Luo Kang couldn't help but teardrop in his eyes, it turned out that Xue Ye had always been concerned about himself and Lin Zi's affairs.
After saying goodbye to Zhang Zhilong, Luo Kang returned to the car and saw that Chen Zhiyu was already sitting in the back seat, and the windows were open. He said to Chen Zhiyu: "You are quite conscious, my cold seems to be serious again, or you should drive." ”
Chen Zhiyu turned his head and looked at Luo Kang, his eyes were bloodshot, his gaze was stagnant, and there were blood marks on his nostrils and the corners of his mouth.
Seeing Chen Zhiyu like this, Luo Kang asked eagerly, "Xiao Chen, what's wrong with you?" ”
Chen Zhiyu opened his mouth to speak, his voice was sharp and harsh: "My driving skills are not very good, you should come, please, drive faster, my family is dying, I want to see him for the last time!"
