Chapter 148: Cultivation
"Hahaha, okay, Ah Hao, you are very happy to be a teacher when you come to my door today." Uncle Nine sat upright and took the hot tea with both hands, took a sip, and his eyes revealed his appreciation for Wang Hao.
Seeing that Wang Hao had made a big salute, Uncle Nine hurriedly stepped forward to help, and then turned around. After a while, he came out of the back room, still holding a short square wooden stick with charms engraved on all sides.
"Ah Hao, today you apprentice to me, I don't have any good gifts to give you, this ruler is made by my own hands, not something valuable, you can take it."
Wang Hao took the ruler, held it in his hand, and suddenly felt a warm and condensed feeling in his hand, stroking the intricate carvings on it, although the material is not precious, but it can be seen that the maker is very attentive.
Wang Hao hugged his fists again and thanked him, and said respectfully: "Thank you for the gift of Mr., the student wants to hold a banquet in the town tomorrow, which can be regarded as an official worship under Mr." ”
"Hahaha, you have a heart." Uncle Nine smiled happily, very satisfied with Wang Hao's performance.
Wang Hao knew that although Uncle Nine was a cultivator, he was a very good-looking person.
So the next day, Wang Hao ordered the best meals, the best wine and tea in the best restaurant in the town, and also feasted Uncle Jiu's neighbors, which was considered to be enough for Uncle Jiu's face.
At the banquet, Wang Hao once again toasted the apprentice tea, performed the apprenticeship ceremony, and announced to the whole town that he had become a student of the ninth uncle.
After successfully apprenticed to Uncle Jiu, Wang Hao did not move in with Uncle Jiu.
In the real-world movie, Uncle Jiu's place is small and compact, and the only single room is given to the female apprentice Xiaoyue. In this world, Uncle Jiu's house is a large courtyard with three entrances, and some of them are empty.
It's not that Wang Hao doesn't want to move, it's that he is not qualified enough.
Come to think of it, everyone is used to seeing apprentices eating the master's and living in the master's house, but which school teacher do you see still taking care of the student's food and housing.
Fortunately, Wang Hao is worth a lot of money, he has his own house to live in, and the winery has begun to make a profit.
After the ninth uncle exorcised the ghost in the distillery, Wang Hao hired a shopkeeper, and then left all the things in the distillery to the shopkeeper to do. Although Boss Ge is not a good person, this winery is really good, and it is not false if you can start work if you recruit guys.
Now Wang Hao is going to Uncle Jiu's house with all his heart, spending money like running water, and every time he goes back, he brings a little bit of good cigarettes, good wine and good tea. A disposable lighter of five cents was sent to many of them. also brought some gifts to Ah Xing and Xiaoyue from time to time, which made the two of them dizzy.
For these things, Uncle Nine didn't mind the slightest.
In the past few years, apprenticeship and art have been like this, from studying and practicing martial arts to carpentry and blacksmithing, I want to take out some real skills from the master, how can I do it without a little effort and effort!
There are many so-called true disciples of the master, who have studied for half their lives, and the master is not going to keep a hand to guard against the apprentices.
So it's not a thing.
It's just that Uncle Nine will tell Wang Hao every time that he should bring fewer gifts to Ah Xing and Xiaoyue, which will spoil the two of them.
The rest of the time, he was sticking to Uncle Nine with a dead face, and every day he had to follow behind like a little follower to serve tea and water, changing his tricks to please Uncle Nine.
It can be said that if Wang Hao had served the company's CEO in the past and was so attentive now, even if he did not have the help of the system, he would have been promoted and raised a salary long ago and reached the peak of his life.
Uncle Nine is also very fond of Wang Hao, a student, although he has not taught him like a disciple of the preaching, but he occasionally mentions a few words.
It's just that Wang Hao has never been exposed to the knowledge of Taoism before, so Uncle Nine is not in a hurry to teach Taoism. Instead, after pulling Wang Hao to worship the patriarch first, he threw Wang Hao a bunch of introductory books.
"Ah Hao, you are a person who practices martial arts, your body is strong and full of qi and blood, which is in line with the essence of your cultivation. In the future, if you cultivate the Dao Fa, you will definitely enter the realm much faster than others. Uncle Nine looked at Wang Hao and said with a smile.
When Wang Hao heard Uncle Nine say this, his heart was naturally overjoyed, and the hot heart in his chest beat restlessly.
But before Wang Hao's hot heart beat a few more times, Uncle Jiu's next action completely poured a basin of cold water on this hot heart.
"It's just that you have never been in contact with my Xuanmen Sect before, and you don't know anything about my Taoist common sense and etiquette. But fortunately, you are a reader, which also saves you and me a lot of time. After speaking, Uncle Nine patted the two stacks of thread-bound books on the table that were piled up as high as a hill, and said: "You can take these books back and study them yourself, if you don't understand anything, you can ask Ah Xing and Xiaoyue, if they have any questions, come and ask me for advice." This is not only a test for you, but also a test for me to compare these two uncompetitive guys. ”
Wang Hao looked at the two stacks of books in front of him with a confused expression, and the corners of his mouth twitched when he saw it. With a sluggish expression, he took out a notebook, flipped through it a few times, and found that almost every word looked like he had seen it somewhere, but when combined into a piece of paper, it seemed that he didn't know it at all.
I sighed secretly in my heart, and my heart said; How can someone else's apprentice steal a book of Taoism from the master, and recite a few mantras on it to be able to live day by day, I am so hard, and I have to learn from the basics, this is all sorry for my name of the sky!
But helplessly, now that the master has the final say, Wang Hao can only say goodbye to the master and return to his residence with these two stacks of books.
The ancient Greek philosopher Zeno once said, "Human knowledge is like a circle, inside the circle is known, and outside the circle is unknown." The more you know, the bigger the circle becomes, and the more you don't know. ”
I have to say that Uncle Jiu, as a teacher, has really done a good job.
Just when Wang Hao was holding this large pile of books, scolding all the way back to his home, and according to the guidance given by Uncle Jiu, he opened the first book and began to read it, which was destined for Wang Hao to step into a new world.
From this moment on, Wang Hao entered the process of collapse of the three views, remodeling, collapsing again, and reshaping again.
The book that Uncle Nine gave to Wang Hao is not a mysterious scripture that no one can understand. It's not a sentence or two that looks like it's crazy and cool, but it's not a golden sentence if you think about it.
Rather, just like a primary school student learning pinyin literacy, around the word 'Dao', it is broken and crumpled to tell the reader everything about it.
Although there are a lot of incomprehensible places in the middle, Wang Hao skipped this paragraph and then looked down after making the marking, and there was nothing unsmooth.
When Wang Hao came back to his senses again, it was already moonlight. I looked at my watch and realized that I had not looked at it for a day, but for two whole days and a night. I watched it for more than 30 hours!
It's also thanks to Wang Hao's good health, otherwise if he were an ordinary person, he would just be carried to the hospital directly.
Standing up and stretching, Wang Hao looked at the pile of books on the table. At this time, in Wang Hao's eyes, this is no longer a bunch of basic Taoist books, but the key to opening the door to another world.
Almost every book has all kinds of marks on it, which is what Wang Hao can't understand and is ready to ask Uncle Nine for advice.
Wang Hao even faintly felt that such a detailed basic introductory book was what a real famous school should have...... Heritage!
