At the end of 2013, after a busy year, I went back to my hometown to prepare for the Chinese New Year, and on the first night I went back to see Master, Master was very happy that day, and we talked a lot and drank a lot. He told me about the loneliness and hardships of his youth, and I told him about the knots and helplessness of my youth. Finally we talked about the future of Cha Ling, and I said that I was not willing to let Cha Ling not inherit after me.

Master was drunk and hazy, squinted his eyes and said to me: "Rabbit cub, before I met you, I had already planned to cut off Qia Ling in my hands, and your master once told me that our small sect is almost a single transmission. It is not easy to pass on so many generations, and the times have become less and less allowed for us to develop and grow. If there is a fate, you can accept another apprentice, which can be regarded as a happy ending, at least we can be regarded as continuing into the twenty-first century

Master often mentioned Master to me, but I had never seen him, and at this time I asked a question that I had always wanted to ask: why do we have a rule that Master is still alive and cannot accept disciples.

Master glanced at me, took a sip of wine, and asked, "Do you want to take in apprentices?" Break this thought, you don't have this fate.

I quickly shook my head and I said no, I don't want to at all. I'm just a little curious as to why we have this door rule,

Master took another big sip of wine. He cleared his throat and said to me: Actually, there was no such rule before, but there was an incident in the generation of your ancestor, and it was because of that incident that there was the current rule.

If it were to be changed in normal times, of course I wouldn't ask questions, because I knew Master's temper, and he would naturally tell me if he wanted to. He didn't want to say it, and it was useless for me to ask.

After Master finished saying that, he looked at me. He patted me on the shoulder again and said, "You've grown up and you're almost on your own. Forgive me for some things I didn't tell you before, but today, I can finally tell you about them.

I quickly straightened up and straightened up. Like a soldier sitting on his side. Although I am usually naughty and sometimes a little funny, I know that I can joke when I should be joking, and when I should be serious, I can't tolerate the slightest sloppiness.

I picked up half a bowl of rice wine, touched it with Master, and then drank it in one gulp, and said respectfully: Master, you said. I'm listening.

After the master finished drinking, he began to tell me the story of my master's ancestor.

The ancestor of the master is a person from the late Qing Dynasty, and here I will call him the ancestor of the teacher. At that time, the society was in turmoil and the Qing government was crumbling. Many enthusiastic young people threw themselves into the revolution, but at that time most people were relatively conservative in their thinking. Therefore, when he held high the Westernization Movement and shouted the slogans of Shiyi's long skills to control the country, although he also learned a lot of foreign science and technology, he also cultivated a group of people who liked to speculate, including the senior brother of the teacher's ancestor.

At that time, the Qing government was in turmoil, and the Qing government was under the frequent invasion of various land reparations and foreign forces. The national economy has plummeted. The taxes are serious, but the common people have a hard time.

Shizu had three apprentices, Shizu was the youngest junior brother, and his second senior brother was killed in a pit. Since everyone was basically hungry at that time, there were few live pick-ups, even if there were. It's just a few buckets of rice. A few loads of firewood are just a reward. At that time, there was a saying: Teach the apprentice, starve the master.

This line of work does not rely on brute force, nor is it young, but on accumulation and precipitation. Therefore, the elder brother of the ancestor of the teacher is not used to this kind of hard life, although he has learned a skill, but he has nowhere to show it. had to leave his hometown and go to a place where he felt there was more room for development. It is also not known where he went, but after three years. But he returned to the division. At the same time, a person was brought back.

When that person came back, he called the teacher Uncle Zu, who was obviously the apprentice of his senior brother.

According to the elder brother, the man was gifted and intelligent, and he was kind by nature. And the perception is very high. It is very suitable for the inheritance of the sect. The master of the ancestor had not seen the eldest disciple for a long time, and he must have been very happy to come back suddenly. He didn't have much opinion on the disciples introduced by the senior brother, and in his own words: Master introduced the door, and the cultivation was personal.

The nominal master and apprentice three generations were particularly happy that day. In addition to bringing back an apprentice, the senior brother also brought back a lot of wine, and it was the first time that the master and his master drank foreign wine, so the two of them were drunk that night. And the elder brother and his apprentice remained sober. It was also in the evening of the same day. Come back without 24 hours of the elder brother and his apprentice. While they were drunk. The starry night is gone again. As he left, he also took with him all the things in his master's room. Not even some important inheritance items were spared......

By the time the master and apprentice woke up the next day, the senior brother and his apprentice had already left. The house was turned over in a mess. They figured it out when they thought about it. They did not come back for the purpose of the apprenticeship ceremony, nor for the purpose of visiting. Instead, they came to loot. The master of the master of the ancestor was immediately furious, and immediately ordered the ancestor to chase in the direction of the county seat. Bring them back. At that time, there was no means of transportation, and it was all on foot. So it can't go far.

The master ancestor understood at that time that the master must have the means to get the senior brother back, so he would chase him exclusively. He didn't say a word. With a hazy sense of alcohol, he ran wildly and chased out. It was at this time. The master of the ancestor took out the personal belongings of the elder brother and the eight characters of his birthday. summoned the five rampant and went after him.

At that time, betrayal of the master was the most serious, it was the shame of a sect, and it was also the face of the ancestors. It is a kind of failure for the parties. The five rampants generally rarely beat people, but they don't fight without fighting, because the ancestor of the teacher is very high, and he will not stay in anger.

The summoned Superior Five Rampant quickly followed the trail and quickly caught up with the senior brother and his apprentice.

Senior brother is the first to get started, but the Tao is the lowest, he personally does not seek to be motivated, and he is also very sloppy about the methods that can not make him rich quickly, and he has been out for a few years. Seven-seven-eight-eight, which has long been forgotten. Five rampant when they catch up with them. He didn't even resist. was beaten to the ground by five rampants. But the disciple he brought back nominally was different. Not only was he not defeated by the five rampants, but he also injured one. Although he didn't please himself, at least in that fight, he beat the five rampant.

The master of the master of the master of the teacher waited until he came back to the five rampant, which was much more than he expected. He didn't believe that his big apprentice could do this. And five rampant returned information. All pointed directly at the nominal apprentice of the senior brother.

Later, because the elder brother of the teacher ancestor was injured, he couldn't walk fast. It didn't take long for him to be chased by the teacher's ancestor. The teacher Zu is also an acute temper, but fortunately, he is relatively burly, and he does farm work at home all the year round. So have a good body. Without saying a word, he rushed over and beat the apprentice. Then he brought his elder brother back.

However, the thief's apprentice took it and ran away.

Back at the master's gate, the master exorcised the evil spirits for the senior brother and unsealed the seal. Then they will be expelled from the division.

At that time, it was also a great shame to be expelled from the division, and it can be said that it was basically not mixed up in that area. It's not an exaggeration to say it's a rat crossing the street.

The elder brother was born poor. When he was a teenager, his father died of hunger. His mother was a woman, and she was so sick that she couldn't afford to support him. So at that time, he sent it to his master's door and begged the master to take him in and raise him. His master can be said to be equivalent to his rebirth of parents. But he was not willing to keep his feet on the ground. Always thinking about one step to the sky. And when I work alone, I often ask for a sky-high price. It stinks for fame. and refused to farm; So gradually, no one in that area was willing to ask him to solve the ghost matter anymore. In the end, he was forced to leave his hometown to find the opportunity he said.

After the senior brother was cured, he knew that his sin was unforgivable, so he knelt on the ground and begged for a long time, and said heartbreakingly that he would wear the sin and make meritorious service. He knew where the man lived. I must find back what my master lost, and I vow that I will never go my own way in the future, and I will cultivate the Tao well. Coupled with the intercession of the teacher's ancestor. In the end, the master still let go of the mustard and asked him to take the master ancestor to recover the lost inheritance of the master.

His master not only relented and agreed, but also took out almost all the money as their travel and accommodation expenses to recover the inheritance items that should have belonged to my master.

In the evening of the same day, the two brothers and sisters left the sect. That thief apprentice who is bent on finding the elder brother.

The teacher is simple by nature. Years of learning from the Daomen made him think that everyone was a good person, and he rarely went far away. Therefore, the understanding of the outside world is basically a blank space.

In this way, he followed him, the senior brother who used to play with him and grow up with him, to the county seat. Moreover, the master was young at the time, and he was used to listening to the master when the master was there, and listening to the theory of the senior brother when the master was not there. Because of this, not only did the ancestor not get back the inheritance items of the master sect in the past, but he was also put on the table by the senior brother he had always admired.

The senior brother took him to find the thief apprentice, walked around the county for a long time, and then entered the small courtyard gate. The elder brother told him to knock on the door. After the people inside opened the door, the senior brother pushed him from behind, and then cooperated with the people inside to restrain the teacher's ancestor. And tied up.....

It wasn't until that time that Shizu realized that it was all a scam, and it was a serial set. He kept scolding his senior brother, constantly struggling, and constantly begging for mercy, but they didn't pay attention to him at all, they had their own goals, and they would do whatever it took to get the goal. They are well planned and well thought-out. Even the thief's apprentice was prepared. Not even afraid of the five rampant.

Of course, their purpose was not just to trick the ancestor to come and tie it up, but for another thing, a very antique thing, and they didn't get it, it was still in the hands of their master, and they kidnapped the ancestor for the purpose of getting that thing.<
