Wang Yi didn't know his name, and he was an orphan since he was a child.

When Lin Jiu found Wang Yi, he was at the foot of Maoshan Mountain, when Lin Jiu was still a young man, he carried a great responsibility to go deep into the valley and retire to the world, but at this time he met this poor child. As a result, this helpless little guy became Lin Jiu's first apprentice.

Because he was the first apprentice, Lin Jiu named him 'Yi', which is very in line with the Taoist idea of being at peace with what happens. According to Wang Yi, he was very impressed by the place where he was a child, although he forgot the name, but he clearly remembered that it was called Wangjiagou, and Lin Jiu speculated that his surname was Wang, so he named Wang Yi.

Lin Jiu took Wang Yi to practice day after day, and the young Wang Yi was serious and obedient, taking steps every day, carrying weights up and down the mountain, practicing boxing, meditating, and listening to Lin Jiu's arguments day after day. Sometimes Wang Yi also wondered why the master always asked him to do these boring spiritual trainings, and even asked him to meditate on the soil.

Lin Jiu would also sit with Wang Yi on the swarthy and moist soil, Lin Jiu's face was filled with infinite patience and kindness, he grabbed a handful of black soil, held it in his hand, and rubbed it gently.

"People, the most inseparable thing is the dirt under your feet."

The little Wang Yi sat on the side and looked at the master puzzled.

"Everything in nature is a cycle. People were born in this land, created civilized languages, created high-rise buildings, created satellite airplanes, but these things are forever rooted in the soil. People can't do without the soil, and they can't do without everything the land brings to people. In the end, when people die, they actually go to the dirt, and people become dirt, rice and wheat, high-rise buildings, satellite airplanes. ”

Wang Yi shook his little head as if he didn't understand, but his attention had long been focused on the emerald dragonfly in the distance.

Lin Jiu saw the distracted Wang Yi, smiled helplessly, gently tapped the top of Wang Yi's head with a little affection, turned his head, and quietly looked at the sunset in the distance. The two of them are like small silhouettes, still in the warm and orange-red dusk.

.....

As the days passed, Wang Yi had grown into a teenage boy, and his immature face began to show rebellion and rebelliousness. Lin Jiu remembered that day deeply, because on that day, Wang Yi caught his ring ruler.

"How?" Lin Jiu was obviously a little stunned, this kid didn't practice seriously all day long, he knew that he was lazy, and now he couldn't teach a lesson?

Wang Yi grabbed Lin Jiu's ring ruler, his eyes were full of tears, and his face was full of displeasure.

"Why do I have to practice here every day! I don't want to practice anymore! I also want to go out, see the tall buildings, and take the train and plane! ”

Lin Jiu was silent, what Wang Yi said was not unreasonable, he had no right to force Wang Yi's choice.

"And, Master, you practice the Dao every day, why am I practicing these things that ordinary people practice? Am I not gifted? Or do you not want to teach me at all?! Wang Yi wiped tears from his eyes and complained loudly about his dissatisfaction.

"The Tao is not just a spell, the Tao is the ..... of the heart"

Before Lin Jiu finished speaking, Wang Yi ran away, Lin Jiu followed a few steps, but Wang Yi disappeared without a trace and disappeared into the dense woods.

That night, Lin Jiu still didn't find Wang Yi, and he returned to the hut a little frustrated, planning to use magic to find Wang Yi. Unexpectedly, there was already a man sitting in the hut.

"Why are you here?" When Lin Jiu saw the man, his expression became a little serious.

"I didn't expect that! You also took in an apprentice? The man yawned and quipped as he played with the hosta in his hand.

Lin Jiu's expression was not very natural, he stared at this lazy-looking guy tightly, and did not say a word.

"Harm, if you collect 10,000, Hades doesn't care about you." The man smiled, "After all, you're not like us!" To put it bluntly, we are ghosts, you are human. ”

"Let's talk about it." Lin Jiu secretly gasped, and after hearing that this seemed to have nothing to do with Wang Yi, his heart was put back in his stomach.

"You are gifted, unusual, and have profound Dao roots, so you should also be aware of all things in nature, right?" The man's state was suddenly not so lazy, and his serious tone seemed as if he had suddenly sobered up.

"Realize what?"

"Realize .....," the man narrowed his eyes and tilted his head to stare at Lin Jiu, "There is an unspeakable secret in the underworld. ”

.....

Wang Yi hid outside the hut and listened quietly, his mind was full of doubts, he couldn't understand what the master was saying to the man, but there must be something hidden from him. From then on, the king became gloomy at first, and his heart was pretending to be a matter of things.

The next day, Lin Jiu opened the door and found Wang Yi sleeping deeply at the door, Lin Jiu shook his head and carried Wang Yi back to the house. When Wang Yi woke up, Lin Jiuzheng looked at him with a little worry.

"Master.....?"

"Awake?" Lin Jiu handed Wang Yi a cup of hot tea, and after Wang Yi drank it, he slowly spoke, "Haven't you always wanted to learn spells from me?" ”

Wang Yi's dim eyes suddenly lit up, but then they dimmed again, "Master, I don't mention that kind of request..... I'll be serious about cultivating....."

Lin Jiu smiled lightly, "From today onwards, I will teach you three spells. A technique of peeping into the underworld, called viewing the falling yin; A technique of writing talismans and fixing souls, called soul capture technique; A transcendent art of spiritual attraction is called lighting a spiritual lamp. These three techniques complement each other, also known as the three-element technique, you and I learn and practice hard. ”

Wang Yi opened his mouth slightly, not knowing what to say, his heart was excited and complicated at this moment.

"But..... Master, why is it all related to ghosts and ghosts? ”

Lin Jiu closed his eyes and tapped his head lightly, "Noise! Do you learn or not? ”

"Learn! I learn! I don't ask the master! ”

Seeing this, Lin Jiu smiled with relief.

.....

In a blink of an eye, ten years have passed, Wang Yi has become an adult, and Lin Jiu's hair has also appeared faintly silver, but Lin Jiu's mental strength has not changed at all, and even his face is still young.

Wang Yi had already perfected the three-element technique, but on this day, Lin Jiu was different from the past, surprisingly serious.

"The three-element technique has been practiced, you can go down the mountain."

Wang Yi's expression changed suddenly, he knelt on the ground with a thud, and shouted master, his eyes were suddenly full of tears.

"There are not only high-rise buildings, satellite planes, but also demons and monsters that still haunt the world. You have the skill of subduing demons and exorcizing demons, you shouldn't hide here, you should enter the world and play your role. ”

Wang repeatedly begged Lin Jiu, but it was useless, and after tossing for a while, he kowtowed three times unwillingly. Lin Jiu didn't speak, just sat there, quietly watching his child-like apprentice pack his bags and leave the hut.

.....

Wang Yi traveled all over the world, following Lin Jiu's expectations, and helping people to remove spirits and unwind spells, until one day, he met a man.

In the home of an online anchor, Wang Yi once again met the man who went to find Lin Jiu that night, Wang Yi's three-element technique was not enough to deal with, but with that adventure, Wang Yi unexpectedly came to the underworld and saw the power of the spirit sealer. At that moment, Wang Yi understood that Lin Jiu was also a spirit sealing master, and Wang began to think about why his powerful master only taught him these three useless spells, and why his dearest master wanted to drive him down the mountain.....

Although Wang Yi has become an old man, he is not convinced, he also wants to become stronger, and he wants to live forever like his master.

.....

Wang Yi returned to Maoshan and wanted to find out the secret they said that night, he began to secretly practice the evil sect method, and used forbidden techniques to detain Waste, and when Wasted came back to return to life, Wang Yi suddenly felt that his world was falling apart.

The secret was not clarified, but Wang Yi knew a terrible truth - in this world, there is no heaven, only hell! And that hell is not as righteous as imagined.....

This is not enough, Wang Yi wants to continue to dig up this secret, but this time, the waste has not returned. Disheartened, Wang Yi suddenly remembered his old master, and when he returned to the hut where Lin Jiu was, he saw two other strangers appear.

Why..... Why should I have other disciples?

For a while, anger, unwillingness, and jealousy completely occupied Wang Yi's heart, and he left angrily and began to explore a darker forbidden technique - horse food yin card!

I don't know how long it took, Lin Jiu went to see the cultivation of the two apprentices as usual, but only saw two headless corpses.....

.....

Lin Jiu knew who did it.

From that day on, Lin Jiu's face changed from gentle to forever cold and serious.
