Chapter 17, The Past of the Mountain Gate (2)

Chapter 17: Interesting Facts at the Front Door (2)

"Xing'er, you have just entered Shumen, many things want to compare and don't know very well, the past in the door has been told to you, with the rapid development of the times, our Shumen in the orthodox Daomen is not as strong as in the past, many old rules in these years have also made a little corresponding rest, some traditional life restrictions no longer exist, but the most basic benevolent way you must keep in mind, these can not be erased by anything." Shu Sangzi sighed, looked at Xingyuan who was sitting on a stone in front of him with a solemn expression, and couldn't help but say.

"Master, the apprentice's life was saved by you, although the apprentice still doesn't understand many things in the door, the apprentice will follow the master from tomorrow, and the senior brothers will study hard and live up to the master's trust."

Listening to Xingyuan's words, Shu Sangzi nodded slightly, leisurely touched his white beard, and slowly spoke: "Okay, from tomorrow onwards, there are some important things to go down the mountain for a while, and in the days when the teacher is no longer a teacher, let your brothers and sisters start to teach you the basic skills of entry. When I return to the mountain as a teacher, I hope to see a different child. ”

Xingyuan was stunned, looked at Shu Sangzi and said, "What? Master, you want to go down the mountain? I've only been getting started for a day, and you don't care about me, a closed apprentice? You just believe in me? Aren't you afraid that these brothers and sisters won't be able to control me, who is used to being in the field, and will make a lot of trouble? Or secretly take some valuable things from your mountain and sell them? ”

Shu Sangzi still looked at Xingyuan with a smile on his face, and said again in his mouth: "Since the teacher has accepted you as a disciple, he can guarantee that you will not do such a thing." It is impossible for you and Ben to have such a heart, go back to the house and prepare, and I will ask Senior Sister Jin Hui to send you some daily necessities in a while! During the period of my absence, everything in the division was handled by Tiankang, if you don't understand anything at that time, just go directly to your senior brother! ”

"Okay, that disciple has retired, don't think about me!" Xingyuan smiled and learned the posture of the apprentice to say goodbye to the master in the TV series of cultivating immortals, made a fake appearance in front of Shu Sangzi, and turned around and walked towards the hut where he lived yesterday.

Shu Sangzi still smiled and looked at Xingyuan's departing back, and said slowly: "Come out, when did you learn to eavesdrop and speak as a teacher!"

After hearing the restless rustle of the trees next to him, two figures appeared out of thin air, it was Yang Chen and Jin Hui.

"It's still the master who is amazing, and he can see through the maze laid by the apprentice at a glance, it seems that the apprentice has not learned the magic of this formation at home!" Yang Chen scratched the back of his head covered by his long hair and said embarrassedly.

Jin Hui, who was standing next to him, also smiled awkwardly, and his face wrapped in hair was also slightly reddened. Just about to open his mouth to defend his words, he didn't have time to say it, but he was directly interrupted by Shu Sangzi.

Shu Sangzi said a little calmly: "Hui'er, I've been hiding here and listening to what the teacher has said for so long, I should know what I should do."

Jin Hui also smiled shyly, and arched his hand: "Yes, master, the disciple retires." He quickly turned and left.

"Master, the disciple still has something to understand, I hope the master will tell me!" Yang Chen slowly stepped forward and asked.

Shu Sangzi glanced at Yang Chen lightly and said, "Chen'er, presumably you want to ask, Xing'er's matter, right?" Let's talk about it as a teacher. ”

Yang Chen's face was slightly gloomy, and after thinking for a moment, Nan Nan said: "Why did Master accept disciples so hastily today, and the rules set by the ancestors, why can each Daoist master in Shumen only accept five disciples, how can you break this precedent?" Moreover, among the real people of the past generations, there are many who have violated this rule, and they all ended up with a distressing end, Master, don't you ...... it too" Yang Chen didn't dare to continue, swallowed the rest of his words fiercely, and looked at the master in front of him nervously.

Shu Sangzi's face was also a little uneasy, he shook his head and sighed again: "I broke the rules left by the ancestor, and it is a last resort to do this for the teacher, but this child has an unbreakable relationship with my Shumen." Chen'er, the teacher knows that you are worried about the safety of the teacher, and the teacher will give an explanation to the ancestors for this matter. You go down first, for these days when the teacher is away, you will take care of Xing'er, this child. ”

"Master, but you ......"

"Alright, Chen'er, go down."

Seeing that his master was still silent, Yang Chen was also helpless, and then he also bowed his hand and said, "Hey, the disciple retires."

There was not a single cloud in the sky, and there was still a round of departing sun overhead, and occasionally a little wind blew, and all the trees stood listlessly and lazily.

After explaining the trivia, Shu Sangzi stepped out of the mountain gate step by step and walked to the plank road wrapped in layers of clouds and mist.

The distant mountains in the twilight, gray and magnificent. In the vastness, I saw the two poplars and green pines standing on the top of the mountain. The breeze swayed their branches and leaves, and under the reflection of the sunset, they looked more vigorous and upright. The swaying branches and leaves reveal a touch of the afterglow of the slanting sun.

In the early morning of the next day, with a terrible scream from the next room, the picture in front of Xingyuan, who was fishing and chatting with Jiang Gong beautifully, changed dramatically in an instant.

looked out the window at the sparrow standing on the branch of the tree and chirping, and knew that it was already the time for the daily morning exercise in Shumen. Just about to turn over and get up, a scolding voice came out next door: "Fourth, can't you get people up properly, it's this hot water every day, sooner or later I will have to be ruined by you for this handsome appearance, and I will be delayed for life!"

Hearing these words, Xingyuan's body couldn't help but shudder, and slowly patted his chest, and an inexplicable fear rose in his heart from time to time: "It's a shame that the third guy's room is closer to the fourth, otherwise without the reminder of the third child's live alarm clock, it is estimated that the boiling water has been poured on my face now, so dangerous!"

At this moment, a somewhat strange figure appeared in front of Xingyuan's door under the refraction of the sun in the early morning. With the soft sound of a creak opening the door. Xingyuan, who was sleeping on the bed, was clever, and suddenly turned over and got up.

"You're up, I thought you needed to get me up every day?"

Jin Hui, the fourth senior sister of Zheng Xingyuan, who pushed open the door of the house, and the basin slowly emitting green smoke in her hand looked particularly dazzling in front of Xingyuan.

Facing Jin Hui, who was looking at him with a smile, Xingyuan was stunned and hurriedly put on his white robe, and smiled shyly and said: "Senior brother is a grass people, how can you bother Senior Sister Gege's daughter, Senior Sister only needs to call Senior Brother Jianhong alone every day, and Senior Brother has his own sense of time."

Now Jin Hui at the door couldn't help but purse his lips and smile, and poured the water in the basin in his hand into the washbasin in the corner of Xingyuan's room, "Old and young, look at your nervousness, this hot water is called by Senior Sister and I to wash your face, not to splash you, hurry up and clean yourself, Senior Brother is still waiting for a few of you in the cultivation ground." ”

The sunlight still showed the breath that nourished all things on the earth, and after washing, Xingyuan slowly pushed open the door and looked at the room next door. Chen Jianhong was still unhurriedly combing his human-like middle part, thinking about his terrible cry just now, a smile inexplicably appeared in his heart, and he said in his mouth: "Third child, thank you just now!"

Chen Jianhong, who was admiring his hairstyle in front of the mirror with relish, heard this, turned his head suspiciously, looked at Xingyuan through the window and asked, "Thank me for what?"

"Anyway, thank you, you slowly get your traitor head, I'll go to the cultivation ground first." Xingyuan snickered and said without looking back, and turned to leave.

The cultivation ground of Shumen was built in a corner of the clearing near the clouds on the north side of the mountaintop, adjacent to a spring waterfall on the top of the peak to the west, and an abyss with no vision to the east. There is no trace of green vitality around the boxy masonry, which is incompatible with the entire Shumen environment.

Just as Xingyuan stepped on the steps of the cultivation ground, he suddenly heard a loud sound of breaking the air, and before he could react, a strong wave of qi passed directly over his head. The whistling wave of air brought an unprecedented shock to Xingyuan, and for a while, Xingyuan was so frightened that he sat on the ground. Although he was scared in his heart, he still couldn't stop scolding: "It's the guy who doesn't have long eyes and throws things to beat Lao Tzu."

As soon as the words fell, a tall figure slowly walked from the distance through the mist. When the frightened sweaty man saw the man's face clearly, Xingyuan's hanging heart slowly let go with his slight gasp.

"Young, you're here."

Looking at Xingyuan, who was sitting on the ground with an embarrassed face, Wang Tiankang smiled and stretched out his hand and pulled him up.

"Boss, you're scared me to death, are you bullying the new junior brother like this, by the way, what did you throw just now, why didn't I hear the sound of landing?" Xingyuan patted the dust on his body and asked Wang Tiankang curiously.

"It's just a breath of air, of course there's no sound of landing, and it's nothing special." Wang Tiankang clasped his hands in front of his chest and said calmly.

"What are you talking about, air? You didn't lie to me, what air can blow off two of my hair, is this a stunt of Shumen, or can you teach me? Xingyuan's eyes were full of expectation, and he couldn't help but say to Wang Tiankang.

"Where did you get any stunts, Master said, he is not on the mountain, I will guide you in your daily morning exercises, prepare quickly, I will teach you some basic martial arts skills now." If you have a good foundation, you will naturally learn these things in the future. Wang Tiankang said with a straight face.

However, Xingyuan's mind turned again, and he seemed to think of something again, and asked: "Then, boss, I saw from the TV series, why don't all of them use swords in Shumen, that is, the Shushan faction before the split, I have already started, why don't you send me a long sword?"

"You give me where I am now, tie the horse step to me, about the martial arts of Shumen, I don't think you know very much, I'll give you a good chatter now!" Hurry up and tie me up! ”

As soon as he heard that he was going to tell a story again, Xingyuan's curiosity became even stronger, and he honestly walked to the place Wang Tiankang pointed to, stepped forward, slowly raised his lower abdomen, and a trace of turbidity came out slightly with his nose. At the same time, his legs gradually squatted slightly, and a standard horse step appeared in front of Wang Tiankang.

"Yes, yes, this horse is okay, listen well, the origin of Shumen martial arts!" Wang Tiankang nodded slightly, and then began to tell the story in his mouth.
