It is said that this Ding Hong bent down and hugged his fists, and bowed to the Sanqing stone statue, and when he just looked up, he saw this white-haired old man turn around, and he was so shocked that he almost jumped up.

It turned out that this white-haired old man, with long white eyebrows, hung down to his chest, his nose looked like an eagle's beak, and his eyes looked like they were narrowed into a slit, no wonder Ding Hong was so frightened!

"This kid, today's poor road pinched his fingers, it should be the time to accept apprentices, I didn't expect to come so soon?" The white-haired old man stroked his beard and said with a wave of his hand.

"You...... Why are you like this? How could it be on this barren mountain? He actually became a Taoist priest? What the hell is going on? Ding Hong pointed to the white-haired old man, and asked with doubts on his face.

"Hahaha! Poor road Shunqing is also! Since you have entered my Taoist temple, you should be a doomed disciple in the dark, hurry up and follow me to fetch water and chop wood! I'll take you back to your room to rest later. The white-haired old man swept away from the gate with a wave of dust.

Ding Hong suddenly froze in place, this carrying water and chopping wood was undoubtedly a bolt from the blue to his young age, he really wanted to immediately pull out the blue cloth-wrapped saber, wake up from his slumber again, and see if anything else happened, it was better than staying in this Taoist temple!

The white-haired old man seemed to see Ding Hong's thoughts, so he slowly turned around with a whisk, stroked his beard and said with a smile: "Since this sword brought you here, it is destined in the dark, don't expect to draw the sword if you have nothing to do, and turn the danger into safety, if it is safe to open the scabbard, maybe go to the underworld to play?" I don't believe you, try it, right? ”

Ding Hong looked at the white-haired old man suspiciously, scratched the back of his head and asked curiously, "This sword brought me here?" What's going on? Obviously, I met a black python in the courtyard of the five surnames, chasing and trying to devour us, and came to this barren mountain and wilderness, why did it deliberately bring me here? ”

"Hahaha! The name of this sword is called (Xuan'an), when you encounter danger, as long as you pull out the scabbard, you will immediately turn the danger into safety, go to a strange place, or let time go back, you are not enough mana now, there is no way to control this sword, let alone fly away, so I brought you to apprentice, and I am your master in the dark, now understand? The white-haired old man was smooth, smiling and squinting his eyes.

"If you brought me here to learn spells, why did you let me chop wood and carry water to water the courtyard? Do you treat your disciples like this? Ding Hong seemed to be suspicious of the person in front of him, and said contemptuously and accusatorily.

"Hahaha! Looks like you're not convinced, right? Then go with the poor road, let you see the other senior brothers, some of them have no spiritual roots, and they still can't practice spells after ten years of carrying water, who can blame them? The white-haired old man was smooth, turned around and waved the dust, and took Ding Hong to the top of the back mountain.

I saw that this white-haired old man was walking like flying, and this figure quickly flew to the top of the mountain, Ding Hong wiped the sweat on his forehead all the way, and came half an hour late.

"I said, you old Taoist, if you want to quickly teach me spells, what are you going to do with me to climb the mountain? You know I'm still a child, aren't you deliberately embarrassed for me? Ding Hong waved his sleeves and wiped the sweat from his forehead.

"Don't worry! If you look at these brothers and sisters first, and see how much they have suffered in order to cultivate their spells, and they are still working tirelessly and diligently, you will not feel that the teacher is deliberately making things difficult for you. The white-haired old man was smooth, and with a wave of his right hand, he saw that the clouds and mist gradually dispersed and receded, and the scene in front of him surprised Ding Hong.

It turned out that on this hillside, many Taoist priests appeared in front of them, some planted vegetables in the field with hoes, some carried buckets to carry water to mountain streams, and some cut down trees on the pine forest slopes, chopped them into short wooden stakes, and carried them on their shoulders to the inner view.

"Oooh! I kind of understand, your Taoist temple is not to learn spells, do you want to give silver two long work? The road is not the same, and we will retire first, and we will have a period later! Ding Hong then pouted, turned and left.

"Hahaha! You'll be back sooner or later! The white-haired old man waved the dust, and suddenly a burst of white smoke floated up, and he only heard the sound of cranes chirping in the sky, heading towards the depths of this white cloud.

"Am I really a three-year-old? You also want me to chop wood and carry water for you, you black-hearted old Taoist is obviously a subordinate who wants to make a fire for you to cook, right? I won't fall for you? Ding Hong muttered all the way down the hill and sat down next to a big rock.

A tiger roar came, and Ding Hong's cold sweat suddenly dripped down his forehead, so he took off the sword behind him, removed the position of the blue cloth wrap, and exposed the hilt.

"Xuan'an Sword, Xuan'an Sword, you encounter a big insect here, you have to take me out of this ghost place earlier, I don't want to stay with these stinky Taoists and do long-term work for that bull-nosed old Taoist." This Ding Hong trembled, his neck stiffened a little, and he looked left and right and said.

A yellow flash of "whoosh" flashed, and Ding Hong looked at the big insect covered with black spots, his eyes opened wide in anger, and he flew towards him.

"Take me away! Xuan'an Sword! Ding Hong then pulled the sword out of the scabbard, only to see bursts of golden light, shining so brightly that he couldn't open his eyes.

Ding Hong only felt that the world was spinning, as if he had been sucked into the whirlpool, and after a hoarse shout, he closed his eyes groggily.

A cold wind blew, Ding Hong opened his eyes vaguely, only to see the darkness in front of him, and vaguely saw a stone bridge in front of him, so he climbed up and walked towards the bridge.

Ding Hong walked to the stone bridge, bent down and squatted down, almost didn't scare himself into shouting, it turned out that on the railing of the stone bridge, there were three blood-red characters written, which was "Nai He Bridge" Yes!

"What's going on? How did I get here? Ding Hongsui looked around, only to see the river gurgling by, reflecting bursts of bright light, and a burst of cold smoke flew up from the water.

Ding Hong walked towards the opposite side of the stone bridge, only to see that on the ground, there were black flowers and leaves everywhere, quite high, and some surprises were also!

"What kind of flower is this? It's still black, growing in this dark cave, giving people an even more eerie feeling! Ding Hong squatted down and saw that the black petals were densely covered with white patterns the size of sesame seeds.

Suddenly, the white dots flew up from the petals together, forming a white halo that flew towards Ding Hong's neck.

When Ding Hong saw this scene, he turned around, and there was a "bang", as if he had hit something soft, and he immediately stumbled a few steps out, and when he looked up, he couldn't help but take two steps back in fright......
