This woman's gaze turned away from me to look at Meng Changqing, and after only one glance, it changed back to me, and the fear in her eyes showed again.

In the first second after the fear appeared, she stumbled back a few steps, and then changed her target and threw herself at Meng Changqing.

Meng Changqing saw her rushing over, didn't say a word, and raised his fingers to recite the Taoist mantra, I didn't know the name of the spell at that time, anyway, I felt that this spell was too domineering, it sounded like Dao Hongyin.

Meng Changqing only recited the incantation for less than half a minute, and the woman fell to the ground without moving.

My eyes hurt badly at this time, and I relied on a quick blink to relieve the pain, and after the woman fell to the ground, I saw a familiar figure next to Meng Changqing, it was Li Yan, a female ghost in white.

The way she looked at me was extremely complicated, or maybe I didn't have enough experience, anyway, I couldn't see what she was looking at me. Although I didn't see it clearly, Meng Changqing told me afterwards, and he said that Li Yan's eyes contained a lifetime of following and guarding.

After seeing Li Yan, my eyes went black before I could speak, and I lost my visibility.

Then I felt that Meng Changqing was constantly playing with me, and I could barely open my eyes after a while, but it was still very painful.

The first thing I saw when I opened my eyes was Li Yan's face, and she asked me with worried eyes, "Are you okay?" ”

I saw that her face was full of anxiety and a little flattered, except for Xiaoxiao, it was the first girl to care about me so much.

After hurriedly saying that it was okay, Meng Changqing stood in front of me with a small swarthy board in his hand, looked at the two of us and said, "Of course he is fine, now I wish you could carry him back, this little rabbit cub is very colorful." ”

As soon as Meng Changqing said this, a trace of crimson appeared on both sides of Li Yan's cheeks, and she lowered her head shyly.

I really thought about her carrying me back just now, but this time it was exposed, so I was naturally embarrassed, so I struggled to stand up and wanted to go by myself.

After standing firm, Meng Changqing stared at me for a long time with a stern face, and finally sighed: "How many secrets do you have?" ”

I was stunned when I heard it, there is a ghost in me, it's as simple as that, where is there any secret, he shouldn't be talking about me!

Seeing that I didn't answer, Meng Changqing didn't say anything about it anymore, so he changed the topic and asked me: "I have a relationship with you, would you like to worship Taoism and become a disciple under my disciple?" ”

I snorted, obviously didn't react, but two seconds later I was so happy that I danced, from that day I saw Meng Changqing's actions in the willow forest, I was deeply attracted by Taoist things, I liked those things from the bottom of my heart, I wanted him to teach me, but he said that I had nothing to do with him, so I wanted to know that he wouldn't teach me.

But now he offered to accept me as a disciple, which means that my title for him will be changed from master to master.

Master and Master are completely two concepts, Master is just an honorific title, we can call everyone Master, but Master is different, with a father word concept changed.

Meng Changqing didn't say anything when he saw my happy appearance, just stood aside and looked at me thoughtfully.

Afterwards, I asked him why he would accept me as a disciple at that time, and he said that it was entirely because I was able to risk my life for a female ghost I didn't know that night, and I must have a compassionate heart for people, although I was not spiritual, but my heart was excellent, and I could barely enter Taoism.

There are many etiquettes of Taoist apprenticeship, Meng Changqing doesn't like these etiquettes of Taoism, and my apprenticeship is also very simple, just toasted him with a cup of tea and called Master, I wanted him to give me a Taoist name, but he said that it didn't make sense, to be his disciple does not need to cut off the vulgar things, and the name is still better to use the vulgar.

Of course, apprenticeship is a matter of returning to Anshunguan.

That night, Meng Changqing carried me back, and Li Yan followed us all the time, and only stopped in front of the mountain gate, and she couldn't step into this gate for the time being.

I went to the Taoist temple with Meng Changqing, and after he entered, he opened my eyes and looked at it, and said seriously: "It's not as simple as raising more than just a ghost in your body. I want to ask, did you have anything to suppress it before? ”

I thought about it for a while, and guessed that he should be talking about the blood of the second grandmother and Xiaoxiao.

"I don't know!" I can't talk about this matter casually, I can only hide it from Meng Changqing first.

"There's nothing to suppress the ghost now, and it doesn't come out, so it can only absorb your own soul to replenish it...... Before you find a way, you should practice Taoism well, otherwise you will really become a human ghost when the time comes. ”

He said it so much that I nodded my head in confusion.

"Also, the blood on your middle finger can't be used often, that blood will only be generated once in a while, and you will have to wait until next time if you use it."

I nodded sheepishly.

After he had explained these two things to me, he sat down at the table and carved the coffin board with a knife.

He said that this is the soul of the paulownia wood, which seems to outsiders to be a board, and only insiders know its preciousness.

He sat there all night carving the board, and when I was sleepy, I went to sleep, and when I got up the next day, there was no trace of him in the room, and the coffin board had become a pile of debris on the ground.

However, there was an extra paulownia bracelet on the altar, and I took a closer look, and there were nine beads in total, each with a word engraved on it.

Together, it is 'those who are fighting in front of the army are marching forward in array'.

Meng Changqing came back in the evening, and when he came back, he carried a few more fashionable bags in his hand, and after entering the house, he handed the bags to me and said: "I know that you young people don't like to wear Taoist clothes, so I went down the mountain to buy you a few clothes. ”

Since I was a child, except for my parents, grandparents, and second grandmother, this is the first time that someone has bought me clothes, so I felt that my nose was sour at the moment, and I almost didn't cry, and only after holding back my tears did I say, "Thank you, Master." ”

He hummed lukewarmly, sat down at the table, took a sip of water, and said: "You worship under my door without the consent of your parents, if your family finds you in the future, you can quit Taoism, Heaven and Earth Jun is in front of the teacher." ”

I didn't know how to respond to his words, so I just picked up my clothes and kept silent.

After resting for an hour, he introduced me to some common sense of Taoism.

Taoism in China is divided into five factions, namely Zhengyi, Quanzhen Dao, Zhendao, Taiyi, and Jingmingdao.

The factions are different, and the things they focus on are also different, but they all have the same goal, and what they pursue is only one word, Tao!

Most of the Taoist sects we are familiar with are included in these five sects, and among the existing major sects, the Maoshan Sect and the Dragon and Tiger Sect belong to the Zhengyi; The Wudang faction, the Longmen faction, and the Zhengyang faction belong to the Quanzhen Dao; The Tianbao Palace faction and the Jade Void Palace faction belong to the True Dao; Wanshou Palace belongs to Taiyi.

The sect I worshipped was called the Yuzhen School, which belonged to the Pure Ming Dao. This Anshun Temple is just a small Taoist temple under the Yuzhen Sect, Meng Changqing was not from this Taoist Temple before, he only came three days earlier than me, according to other disciples of the Taoist Temple, Meng Changqing was sent down from above.

He told me a lot of things, and he told me that we forgot to eat at noon, during which he changed the sandalwood on the altar over and over again, a total of nine times.

Nine times later, it was exactly six o'clock in the evening, and the sun had gone down, and there was still some light outside.

Meng Changqing saw that it was getting late, got up and said a few words under the statue of Sanqing, then took away the string of paulownia bracelets, and said to me, "Let's go, let's go to your sister Li Yan." ”

I was about to talk about it, and when he mentioned it, I immediately got up and followed his ass.

Meng Changqing knew where Li Yan was, as soon as he got out of the mountain gate, he went in one direction, walked out of the mountain gate to the left, and walked for less than ten minutes, when he saw Li Yan, who was dressed in plain clothes, standing on the forest path and silently watching the Taoist temple, he retracted his gaze when he saw us coming.

After approaching, she smiled at me, and then bowed to Meng Changqing and said hello to Mr. Changqing.

Meng Changqing nodded expressionlessly, in response to her, and then he took out the paulownia bracelet and handed it to me and said, "Na, you give this to her." ”

I thought that he made this thing for himself, but I didn't expect it to be given to Li Yan, and his image immediately became taller in my heart.

I took the bracelet and looked at it, then walked over to Li Yan, reached in front of her, reached out and handed her the bracelet and said, "This is what Master made for you." ”

Li Yan looked at the bracelet in my hand blankly, and asked me with some uncertainty, "Is this for me?" ”

I was about to say yes, when Meng Changqing said behind me: "This is made of Soul Tree Tree, if you want to follow him, you can only live in this bracelet, otherwise people and ghosts will not be able to walk all the way together." ”

After listening to Meng Changqing's introduction, I realized why he asked me to go to the funeral home to get a coffin board, I originally thought he was making things difficult for me, but it turned out that he had already thought about the next step.

After Li Yan knew the function of this bracelet, she was so excited that she burst into tears, but she was too conservative and forcibly hid this excitement.

It's just that Meng Changqing and I have already seen it, no matter how much she hides it, her body still can't stop trembling slightly, God knows how much this bracelet means to her.

After Li Yan took the bracelet, Meng Changqing said: "When you live in it, you need someone to carry the bracelet, so you have to hand over this bracelet to the person you trust the most for safekeeping, and when you find the person you trust the most, and hand over the bracelet to him, I will teach that person how to use the bracelet." ”

Li Yan looked at Meng Changqing intently, and Li Yan nodded every time he said a word, which showed how seriously she listened.

After Meng Changqing finished speaking, Li Yan lowered her head and fiddled with the paulownia bracelet, and only after a long time did she raise her head and look at me with a slightly red face, and the corners of her mouth squirmed a few times without saying anything.

After hesitating for more than ten seconds, she slowly walked up to me, raised the pair of Qianqianyu hands and stretched them out to me, and said softly, "Can you keep this bracelet for me?" ”

I immediately sighed, although I thought that it would be nice if she gave me the bracelet, but Master is a hundred times more powerful than me, and he is deeply respected by ghosts, even if he hands it over, he should give it to him, I will think about it at most.

I didn't expect her to actually hand the bracelet to me, a little brat.

Afterwards, I thought about it, why would she trust me as a rural wild baby who has no ability? Didn't come up with a result.
