Chapter 5: Successful Apprenticeship

Although Uncle Nine rejected Zhang Cheng, Zhang Cheng had no way out, and if he didn't worship Uncle Nine as his teacher, Zhang Cheng would also be finished.

Thinking of this, Zhang Cheng spoke: "Uncle Jiu, I am sincerely here to seek the Tao. Now the entire land of Shenzhou is full of ghost disasters, and it is really the time when my Daomen goes out of the mountain to calm the world ghost disasters. The boy Zhang Cheng implored Uncle Nine to accept me as an apprentice. ”

Uncle Nine smiled: "Young man, what you think is too simple, this ghost disaster is not so easy to calm down." Let's go, I'm not going to take any more apprentices here. ”

Zhang Cheng was a little panicked, his statement couldn't impress Uncle Nine at all, if Uncle Nine didn't accept him, he would be one step away from death.

Zhang Cheng: "Uncle Jiu, I have 20 fast oceans here, which can be used as tuition, and please accept me." ”

Uncle Jiu's face turned cold: "What, do you still want to buy me?" Am I the one who would give up my principles for the sake of 20 oceans? ”

Zhang Cheng: "Uncle Nine, I didn't mean that, originally I wanted to wait for me to get started, and then hand over the 20 oceans to you, but I said this just so that you could accept me." ”

Wen Cai's eyes lit up at this time: "20 yuan is now a big ocean, a lot of money." So Wen Cai said to Uncle Jiu: "Master, or you can accept him, he also came from far away and wanted to worship you as a teacher." ”

Uncle Nine glared at Wen Cai, and said in a stern tone, "Do I need you to teach?" Go and eat for the guests. ”

Wen Cai froze: "Oh. Then Wen Cai glanced at Zhang Cheng: "I can't help you." ”

After speaking, Wen Cai left the lobby.

At this time, Zhang Cheng was a little desperate, he had just graduated, and his ability to bear it was not very strong, and now his plans were all in vain. Zhang Cheng instantly felt like he had fallen into hell.

Zhang Cheng began to regret in his heart: "If I knew that I wouldn't come here, if I didn't do this system task, it would be better to become an idiot than to die, and it may not necessarily become an idiot." ”

Zhang Cheng is just a mortal, and he can't be as hard as iron. The previous plans and ideas were all based on the book, but now in this situation, Zhang Cheng really can't find a way.

Uncle Jiu: "Young man, why don't you leave, there are too many dead people in Yizhuang, and it is easy to provoke yin qi, so you better leave early." ”

Zhang Cheng panicked, got into the yin qi, and will inevitably encounter ghosts, and the current Zhang Cheng encounters ghosts, there is only one end.

Zhang Cheng hurriedly said: "Please take Uncle Nine as an apprentice, please Uncle Nine accept me as an apprentice." ”

Uncle Nine: "Alas, young man, I really don't accept apprentices anymore. After speaking, Uncle Nine stood up and planned to leave from the lobby.

Zhang Cheng panicked, let go of his pride, and kowtowed to Uncle Nine: "Please Uncle Nine accept me as an apprentice." ”

Uncle Nine walked past Zhang Cheng's side, and counted the number of kowtows to Zhang Cheng: "1, 2, 3... 9。 Alas, why bother. ”

Uncle Nine turned around: "Okay, Zhang Cheng, you don't have to kowtow." ”

Zhang Cheng suddenly seemed to be seen from the darkness to the light, that kind of light is so desirable.

Zhang Cheng: "Uncle Nine, are you willing to take me as an apprentice?" ”

Ninth Uncle: "Zhang Cheng, do you know why I don't want to take you as an apprentice?" ”

Zhang Cheng looked dazed: "I don't know, Uncle Jiu, why?" ”

Uncle Nine sat on the chair: "Because your heart is insincere, you came to worship me as a teacher, and you have your own purpose, but what you told me is another matter." You lied to me, how could I take you as a disciple. ”

Since he was discovered by Uncle Jiu, Zhang Cheng also generously admitted: "Yes, Uncle Jiu, I did lie to you, my family did not suffer from ghosts at all, to be precise, I have no home." But, Uncle Nine, how did you find out? ”

Uncle Nine smiled proudly: "I have been dealing with ghosts all year round, how could I not see that you have no ghost energy at all." You said that your house is in ruins, and since you have been there, you will definitely be tainted with ghosts, and you don't have this thing on you, you say, how can I trust you. ”

Zhang Cheng: "Uncle Jiu, you are really a master of the Daomen." ”

Uncle Nine: "Okay, okay, don't tout me." It's not early, you should go early. ”

Zhang Cheng was dumbfounded: "Uncle Jiu, you are still willing to accept me as an apprentice." ”

Uncle Jiu: "Zhang Cheng, you are a person with deep thoughts, every word you said just now is very false, do you think I can't see it?" How dare I accept someone like you as an apprentice. ”

Zhang Cheng: "Uncle Jiu, I really have a last resort, but I want to worship you as a teacher, it is out of sincerity, you are really worthy of my apprenticeship." ”

Ninth Uncle: "Zhang Cheng, you are very smart, but your mind is very messy, and you are not suitable for cultivation. ”

Zhang Cheng: "Uncle Nine, I can take these things, as long as you accept me, I will change these things as you say." ”

Although Uncle Jiu's face remained unchanged, he already had a certain number in his heart.

Ninth Uncle: "Zhang Cheng, it's not impossible for me to take you as an apprentice, but you have to tell me what the purpose of your cultivation is, I want to listen to the truth." ”

Zhang Cheng was silent: "The purpose of cultivation is to exorcise ghosts, live forever, become immortals, calm the world, redeem the common people, and inherit the Tao." Yes, what is the purpose of my cultivation, I just heard that the system can become the mainstay of the Daomen, so I came to this world, why should I cultivate the Tao? ”

After pondering for a while, Zhang Cheng said to Uncle Nine with difficulty: "I'm sorry, Uncle Nine, I don't know, I'm afraid I won't be able to become your disciple." I don't even know why I want to cultivate, and all this I do doesn't really make sense. I'm ridiculous. ”

A wry smile hung on Zhang Cheng's face, he had planned so much, but it turned out to be a waste of time, and he didn't know what the result of his plan was, how ridiculous.

Uncle Nine nodded and smiled: "Actually, I don't know why I cultivate myself. ”

Zhang Cheng was shocked: "Uncle Jiu, you don't know, this is impossible." ”

Uncle Nine smiled: "Zhang Cheng, maybe you think that those of us who cultivate the Tao know what we want, but in fact, we don't know why we cultivate?" There are very few people in this world who can know what they really want, we are all sentient beings, looking for the results we want in the world, and most people do not know why they live for the rest of their lives. ”

Zhang Cheng thought about himself: "Yes, Uncle Jiu, why is this?" ”

Uncle Jiu: "These things can be explained in one word, do you know what words are?" ”

Zhang Cheng: "Dao, everything is Tao, everything has Tao, Tao can be Tao, very Tao." ”

Uncle Nine laughed: "Zhang Cheng, you really have a relationship with our Daomen, come with me." ”

Zhang Cheng: "Uncle Nine, where are you going?" ”

Uncle Jiu: "Aren't you going to apprentice and officially accept you as an apprentice." ”

Zhang Cheng couldn't believe it: "Uncle Jiu, are you really willing to accept me as an apprentice?" ”

Uncle Nine: "What, you don't want to?" Then I'm leaving. ”

Zhang Cheng nodded hurriedly: "Yes, yes, I'm willing." ”

Uncle Nine: "Come with me." ”

In the ancestral hall of Yizhuang, Uncle Nine pointed to the portrait of the ancestral hall and said: "This is the founding patriarch of our Maoshan Mountain, Sanmao Zhenjun, you worship him first." ”

Zhang took the incense in the hands of Uncle Jiu and worshiped Sanmao Zhenjun.

Uncle Jiu: "The ancestor is above, and the disciple Lin Jiu accepted Zhang Cheng as the 18th generation disciple of our Maoshan faction today, and I also ask the ancestor and the ancestors of Maoshan to witness." ”

After speaking, Uncle Nine did it, and the incense in his hand burned instantly, and then extinguished, and a puff of green smoke went straight to the sky.

Ninth Uncle: "Zhang Cheng, kneel." ”

Zhang Cheng immediately knelt down.

Ninth Uncle: "Shangqing Daotong, Maoshan faction, today accepted Zhang Cheng as the 18th generation disciple of the Maoshan faction, and asked heaven and earth to witness." ”

After speaking, Uncle Nine took out a bowl of water, and then used his mana to cut Zhang Cheng's finger and drip a drop of blood into it.
