"I'm going to take my apprentice." Cha Wenbin said coldly.

Hades glared: "Ridiculous, how can people be resurrected after death, and if you say something like you, won't the underworld be messed up?" ”

"He's not dead, he's still alive, and he's not going to die, so he shouldn't die."

"Those who die in vain, those who die in vain don't know how many times they have to be staged every day in this world, and there are calamities in their lives, and the gods can't save them."

"I'm not going to let him go." Cha Wenbin raised his head and looked at the high Hades and said, "Exchange my life for his life!" ”

"Everyone has his own life, how can you say that you can change it!" The judge really couldn't stand this somewhat arrogant Taoist priest, and waved his big hand and shouted: "Take it away!" ”

When Hei Bai Impermanence heard the order, he was ready to take people, but the man in Tsing Yi only coughed lightly, and he did hear the king of Hades say: "Slow, I will let you come here again today, but Cha Wenbin, Heavenly Dao Chaogang, if you have to mess around, you will be punished by heaven." ”

Cha Wenbin broke free of the impermanent hands and left without looking back, and then the people in Tsing Yi disappeared.

The judge obviously did not understand why Hades would agree to the unreasonable demands of a mortal, but he heard Hades say, "Do you remember that there was a river crosser in the Lethe River? ”

Speaking of this person, even if there is no one here, I will not forget that about 3,000 years ago, that person was in the Lethe River, and no one knows where he came from, and no one knows when he left again. For thousands of years, countless people jumped into the river and died slowly from him, only he once saved one person, and now Hades has found that their faces are so similar, a person who does not exist on the book of life and death, what does that mean?

"Is that him?" The pen in the judge's hand was almost missing, it was a god-like figure.

"What's more, you probably haven't seen the lord in the Yang Yuan, the person who is said to have been imprisoned after being punished by heaven, isn't he also very similar to this Taoist priest?" Leaving a group of dumbfounded-eyed shadows looking at each other, Hades walked briskly down deeper into the underworld, he wanted to meet the heavenly punishment for a while, the guy who was said to have gone to hell on his own initiative.

The incense is extinguished, the person wakes up, Cha Wenbin's face is ugly, and the time he has walked has long exceeded a stick of incense. Once the underworld goes, good people will be seriously ill, where can the people in the yang world stand such yin qi, he already has a little cough.

With his hands on the ground, he barely supported himself to Hetu's side, and poked his forehead, the child's temperature was already normal. Cha Wenbin gently closed the door, and the people outside the door were already waiting for a hurry.

"Dashan, you guys pay attention at night, Hetu should wake up tonight, get him some porridge, I'll go sleep for a while." After speaking, he turned around and went back to his room, and from behind, Cha Wenbin's back seemed to be a little hunched.

At twelve o'clock, with the cry of "master", Hetu's eyes finally opened slightly, and the first thing that caught his eye was Chaozi, and Zhuo Xiong, and then turned his head to see, only Dashan with a small bowl in his hand was smiling at him.

"Brother Wen Bin is a little tired, you eat something first, and then go to see him tomorrow."

On the second day, although Hetu's body was still a little weak, he still got up at six o'clock as usual, which was the rule that Cha Wenbin set for him, to be a Taoist, he should get up and do his homework at this point, that is, apostasy.

Cha Wenbin did not get up to supervise Xiaohetu as usual that day, and at eight o'clock, seeing that Cha Wenbin had not yet left the door, Hetu knocked on Cha Wenbin's door at the instigation of Chaozi.

"Master, it's me, how are you?" Xiaohetu said.

There was no answer inside, Hetu still wanted to continue, and Chaozi said: "Forget it, he may be tired and hasn't slept for several days." ”

Cha Wenbin stayed awake all night, he knew that from today onwards, the Heavenly Righteous Path was about to decline. Because, apart from Hetu, he has no one who can be punished by God.

It wasn't until noon that Cha Wenbin walked out of the room with red eyes and clothes, Xiaohetu was helping Dashan prepare lunch, and the two brothers Chaozi and Zhuoxiong had already gone out.

"Hetu, come over here."

"Oh." Hetu answered, and followed Cha Wenbin to the cabinet dedicated to the portrait of Sanqing, which is usually the place where Cha Wenbin cultivates, and is also the location of the three-legged toad, the golden toad is still in the small glass jar, but it seems a little small, it grows too fast.

"River Chart." Cha Wenbin said: "You have been under my door for less than two months, and you tell me what the Tao is? ”

Hetu knelt on his knees and replied to Cha Wenbin: "The disciple is foolish, he has not learned too much, and he still hopes that the master will teach." The disciple believes that the Tao is nothing, and the non-existence is the Tao. The Tao gives birth to all things, and all things are born from the Tao, and the Tao is everywhere, and the Tao is nowhere to be found. ”

Cha Wenbin looked up at the Sanqing Immortal, and sighed in his heart, what a good seedling, it is really more difficult to find a successor in this somewhat vain world than to ascend to the sky, and now it is not easy to find it, but he has to drive him away again with his own hands.

Holding the child's somewhat thin shoulders, Cha Wenbin sighed and said: "Get up, from today onwards, you don't call me master anymore, call me Uncle Wenbin instead, and you will still live here in the future, and go to school like those children in the village, but in this room, you will never come in again, and you must not tell anyone that you have studied Taoism with me." ”

As soon as he heard what Cha Wenbin meant, he wanted to expel himself from the school, and the tears in Hetu's eyes were already swirling, since his grandfather left, this was his only relative. In the past three years, they have depended on each other, and it has only been a hundred days since he called him master for the first time in three years.

The kid was a little stubborn, he didn't know that Hebin had already turned around, and let Nahetu kneel on the ground and walk behind him to pull his clothes, but he still refused to look at him again. In the end, maybe Cha Wenbin had no choice, so he collected a few clothes and took the toad out of the door, and Hetu kept kneeling there, thinking that he must have done something wrong, so the master refused to forgive him.

Later, many years later, when Tong Hetu told me about this incident, he still had tears in his eyes, and he said that if he could stay on the Tianzheng Path at that time, maybe the outcome would have changed.

Cha Wenbin only accepted this one apprentice in his life, and it was only a hundred days before and after, and this hundred days inherited not only the hope of Tianzheng Dao, but also the long-cherished wish of a generation of grandmasters, but after all, God would not agree to him.

Dashan pushed open the door of Cha Wenbin's room, he found a few copper coins scattered on the ground, he called Hetu to see what it was, and Hetu knew at a glance that it was the hexagram of Shifu Bu. What hexagram? Hexagram!

What is a hexagram? As the name suggests, it is to retreat, when to retreat, when to forbear, then forbearance, resolutely abandon everything, do not hesitate, do not hesitate, do not hesitate, do not hesitate, do not nostalgic, do not nostalgic!

What made Cha Wenbin retreat so cleanly, even Hetu's master-apprentice status was retired, the answer is only known to Cha Wenbin himself: if he doesn't retreat, Hetu's life will only be sixteen!

Seven days later, Cha Wenbin dragged a messy clothes home, Hetu carefully stood on the side and didn't dare to speak, Cha Wenbin didn't have a good eye to look at him since he entered the door, this kid has been looking for a chance to apologize to Cha Wenbin, he always thinks that he did something wrong that day, and the master is angry after it affects the master. "Hetu, take out the seal I gave you."

Hetu carefully took out the big seal personally taught by Cha Wenbin from the room, which he had not had a chance to use.

Cha Wenbin took the big seal and threw it to Dashan and said, "Take it and split it, and then throw it into the stove as firewood." ”

"This, Brother Wen Bin, this is the ...... of Hetu" Dashan followed the big seal and was a little at a loss.

Cha Wenbin twisted his hands and said: "If you want to burn it, burn it, and none of you will enter my house in the future." Also, in a few days, let's go to the provincial capital together, I want to send this child there to study, both children are about the same age, and they can have a companion together. ”

Dashan doesn't know what happened to Cha Wenbin, he has always said much, what Cha Wenbin says is what he does, he just does it.

It's not just these things that have changed, Cha Wenbin began to often be locked in the house alone, either sleeping or in a daze during the day, and at night, he got up and went to the yard to look at the stars or the clouds.

Without the seal, Hetu was no longer a Taoist priest, and the last disciple of Tianzheng Dao was sent to the boarding school in the provincial capital a few days later. Since then, the number of times Hetu sees Cha Wenbin has become less and less, even if it is a holiday, Cha Wenbin either goes out or disappears behind closed doors, and it is not until several years later that they find the notebook to understand Cha Wenbin's good intentions.
