Chapter Eighty-Six: Apprenticeship

As for the issue of apprenticeship, at least I have never thought about it, let alone Dorjee. Due to his own relationship, it is absolutely impossible for the man in black to be Qiao Ling's teacher. When the village chief brought it up, we weren't shocked, at least a little overwhelmed. The three of us discussed it for a while, and finally felt that it was still a little inappropriate to accept Qiao Ling as an apprentice. After all, it's impossible for one of the three of us to stay here, let's take Qiao Ling away, if there is a three-long and two-short one outside, it's hard to explain. After all, her brother is dead, and now she is left in the family, we don't want to take this Lori, if there is a real accident, I'm really sorry for her dead brother.

I said to the village chief: "Learning these depends on fate, if Qiao Ling doesn't have this life, we can't do anything." The village chief hurriedly said, "Then sir, take a look." "I asked for Qiao Ling's eight characters. Interestingly, Qiao Ling's eight characters are still recorded on the family tree in the village.

When I lined up Qiao Ling's eight characters, I found that Qiao Ling's eight characters were extremely unsuitable for learning Buddhism. He said: "Qiao Ling, you are not suitable for learning these things, we can't accept you." When Qiao Ling heard this, she fluttered and knelt down again. Crying and said, "Please, sir, take me, I can cook, and I can fold the bed and quilt." ”

Dorjee laughed with a snort, and I held back. I thought to myself: "What age is this TM, and we are not looking for a maid." Those who don't know think we're abducting and trafficking women and children. He immediately went to help Qiao Ling and said, "Hurry up, aren't you * us like this?" That's not right. The village chief also said on the side: "Mr. Qin, you can accept her, her brother died, her parents died early, and now she is the only one left in the family, how will she live in the future." Although the people in the village can help her, they can't help her for the rest of her life. ”

As soon as I mentioned her brother, I felt guilty for a while, if I really accepted it, I would have more heart to take care of her in the future, the soul sealing pill on my body has not been solved, how can I have time to take care of her. Qiao Ling struggled and said, "Sir, please, please." "I cried even harder.

I've never been immune to a woman's tears all my life, and when she cries like this, my heart softens. Just as he was about to agree, the man in black, who hadn't spoken for a long time, said: "I think this matter is settled, and Qiao Ling will be Qin Ze's apprentice in the future." I was stunned, I didn't expect the man in black to suddenly say this, and said helplessly: "You get up, I will be your master in the future, but I won't teach you any Taoism, this will not be good for you, your physique is not suitable for learning this." Qiao Ling nodded excitedly with tears in her eyes and said, "Thank you, master, thank you, master." ”

I said I wouldn't teach her anything, and since she still wants to call me master, thank me. Ay...... I thought it was so good, but I didn't expect there to be any apprenticeship ceremony. This matter was arranged by the village chief, saying that it was to follow the rules of the ancestors. I secretly leaned in my heart for a while, thinking: "This village says that it has been cut off from the outside world for hundreds of years, but the clothes on the body are still modern, but they are a little old, just like the time of the Republic of China, why are the thoughts still so old." "In fact, we learned later that outsiders come in this village every once in a while, but they come in and can't get out....... and a lot of current ideas are brought in by outsiders.

This apprenticeship ceremony is also more traditional, the village chief presided over us, first let me sit down, and then asked Qiao Ling to give me tea, hundreds of people in the village, as long as they can move, they all come, and those who can't move also come. Originally, there was no entertainment in the village, which was a novelty, so almost every family came.

When Qiao Ling finished giving me tea, I thought it was over. Who knew that the village chief also asked Qiao Ling to bow three times and bow nine times, which made me very embarrassed. After a tedious set of rituals, it was finally over. It's too frustrating, but I don't dare to say it, after all, it's also a custom here.

When we left, there was no doubt that we took Qiao Ling's small bag and packed a lot of luggage, even the quilt. Dorjee was smiling on the side, and I was helpless. I looked at it, and there was nothing worth taking away here, so I said to Qiao Ling: "Don't take anything, leave me empty-handed, and go outside to buy it for you." Qiao Ling said helplessly and reluctantly: "Master, do you really want these things?" What a pity. I sighed and said, "Don't bring it, be obedient." "In the end, we carried our things on our backs, pulled Qiao Ling and left.

At the entrance of the village, the people in the village were collectively farewell. Just like the common people on TV to see off the Red Army, we waved while walking outside the village, and even some villagers stuffed us with food....... and finally walked out. Dorjee helped me get some, and Qiao Ling also wanted to help me get it, I didn't agree, I always felt that letting a little Lori take it would be shameless on my face.

In the end, Qiao Ling helped me carry a lot of luggage, and she actually carried more than me. I felt a slump in my heart again. I vow that I must exercise well when I go back this time. In this way, because I am in poor health and there is no urgency, we are in a hurry. When I'm not working, I like to look over my chest and see that red heart-like tattoo. Every time I see it, I greet Hu Yin's ancestors for eight generations.

On the third night, we camped, thinking that we should be able to leave the Qinling Mountains the next day, and our hearts were all happy. Qiao Ling is a well-behaved girl, although she is eighteen years old, probably due to malnutrition, her development is very bad, just like the little Lori of thirteen or fourteen, but her strength is really great. Along the way, they went over the mountains and mountains, and they walked faster than Dorjee.

We camped in a small col with a big mountain in the back and a small forest in front of it, which looked like it had been planted artificially. We didn't care if we didn't see anything in it, it was like after tonight, tomorrow we could sleep in a comfortable bed. After dinner, we began to tell Qiao Ling about the bizarre events we encountered, and heard Qiao Ling shiver for a while. I thought to myself, "It seems that this courage is really not the material for learning Buddhism." ”

I looked at my watch, it was already ten o'clock in the evening, and said, "Okay, go to bed early, we will probably be able to leave Qinling tomorrow." "Just as we were about to get up, there was a sudden gust of wind. We are also old fritters, and we can still distinguish what is natural wind and what is yin wind.

The three of us looked at each other, and Dorjee said, "I guess I'm going to add some shows tonight." I took out a soul talisman and pasted it on Qiao Ling's body first, and said, "Sit here and don't move." Qiao Ling looked at my actions, puzzled for a while, and asked, "Master, what's wrong?" I said helplessly: "It's not that I've told you many times, don't call me master, just call me by my name or big brother." Qiao Ling said nervously: "Does the master want me?" Seeing that she wanted to cry, I was helpless for a while, and hurriedly said: "No, no, you can call it if you want to call it in the future." "I'm too lazy to explain anything to her, it's still called like this outside, if you let others hear it, if you don't laugh to death, you'll be happy.

Another gust of wind blew, and I pulled out my soul and said to Dorjee: "Damn, I don't know that thing doesn't have long eyes, and it hits the muzzle of the gun." I thought: "TMD can't beat the fox demon, this gadget in the mountains still wants to come out to bully and bully us, damn, really when we are soft persimmons." "There's nowhere to vent the fire in my heart, and now I look at an unlucky guy.

I opened the Eye of Heaven and looked around, while the man in black continued to sit by the fire, looking at the two of us coldly. The two of us were like chickens, looking around. Just like the Red Guards who raided the house back then, look at this place, look at that place....... after a long time, and found nothing, the man in black smiled and said: "Don't look for it, maybe someone is passing by." "We both came back with a reluctant face. The man in black said: "Even if you are looking for trouble, you two are probably scared away by your fierce appearance." ”

Qiao Ling said with some fear: "Master, what is going on?" Dorjee hurriedly said: "There is a thing that does not have long eyes to find trouble." Qiao Ling was even more frightened, and said tremblingly: "Is it ~~ ghost?" I smiled and said, "Don't be afraid, with us, don't you think it's okay now?" The man in black also said: "Yes, don't worry, it's okay, the rune paper on your body is definitely fine." After Qiao Ling heard this, she pressed the soul suppression talisman I had just attached to her, for fear of running away.

Another wind blew, and Duo Ji Teng stood up and said, "MD, this is definitely a provocation. Dorjee estimated that he was also holding back a fire after the battle with the fox demon, and he began to look around again....... but in vain Dorjee sat back with a helpless face. Not long after, another wind blew....... and this time none of us got up again. I jokingly said, "It's not air-conditioned." How to blow the wind violently? ”

I don't know how many yin winds she blew, and we all fell asleep. Although this is in Qinling, the weather in July is still relatively hot, and he is blowing such a yin wind, and we are by the fire, just like blowing air conditioners. Dorjee said hesitantly: "Live Lei Feng." I asked the man in black suspiciously, "Senior He, this can't go wrong, right?" I've never seen one that only blows the wind before. The man in black smiled and said, "It's okay, you can sleep if you want, I'll keep a vigil for you." ”

No one slept, and we started telling stories again. I looked at my watch, and the wind blew every ten minutes, and we pinched and searched for it, but we couldn't find it. After all, I was tired all day, and I was really sleepy, so I was the first to go into the tent and sleep. When I woke up the next day, I found that Qiao Ling was in a daze, and she must have not slept well at night. I first asked the man in black, "Senior He, was it okay last night?" The man in black shook his head and said, "It's just a yin wind, and there is nothing else." I jokingly said, "Did you really meet a living Lei Feng?" Free air conditioning? The man in black said hehehe: "In this vast Qinling Mountains, there are many strange things, many things are not harmful, and there is no need to beware, we are just a little nervous by the fox demons." ”

It is undeniable that the man in black is right, as long as everyone is okay. After another half-day journey, we returned to the town where we started, where our car was. Qiao Ling, who entered the city for the first time, was curious about everything and completely forgot about last night. Call a master, and ask this, and call a master, and ask that. I took the trouble to explain everything to her, after all, I have to integrate into society in the future, and if I don't know anything, it will be troublesome.

The man in black said goodbye to us here, saying that he was going to help me find the clue to this Soul Sealing Pill. We agreed that regardless of whether we found it or not, we would meet at our house in M City in three months. After the separation, I drove with Dorjee Qiao Ling to the direction of M City, and along the way, Dorjee and I became Qiao Ling's encyclopedia, introducing her to this world that was strange to her.

All the way up, at eight o'clock in the evening, we returned to our home in M City. Dorjee gave me the treasure box that he took from under Li Yan's sarcophagus, and I put it back in the bedroom, and put it together with the urine jar of the brother kiln and the bottle of the fire candle ghost, and now we are not short of money, so we don't need to spend these things, we should keep a souvenir or collection. and the book he got from Li Yan's sarcophagus and put it away with the corpse beads. Qiao Ling was arranged to the bedroom where the man in black used to live, and she simply cleaned up, which was still relatively good. When I introduced Anyang Puxin to Qiao Ling, Qiao Ling was surprised at first, then scared, and then later, they chatted happily like relatives who had been separated for many years. I thought to myself, "A little girl who just came out of the mountains, does she have so many topics to talk about with them?" "Three women in one play, it seems that this is true.

When An Yang and Pu Xin knew about my relationship with Qiao Ling, they both rolled their eyes and pouted. It seems that I seduced an underage girl, but when they saw a heart-shaped tattoo on my chest, they began to praise me for being artistic again, and I could tattoo such a beautiful heart pattern. When I told them all about the Soul Sealing Pill and its effects, they couldn't laugh, they all looked helpless and distressed. said that he would also help me find clues to the antidote to the Soul Sealing Pill.

And just like that, by the time everything was settled, it was already ten o'clock in the evening. Since Qinling has absolutely no mobile phone signal, I turned off my mobile phone, and when I turned on my mobile phone, I found that there were more than 100 missed calls, almost all of them were from Su Xue, as well as Liu Mei's, and of course, Mrs. Guan also had a few.

I called Mrs. Guan and Su Xue back one by one and reported that they were safe. Su Xue is the most difficult, this chat, we talked until more than eleven o'clock, and I will finish it again and again with my repeated promises. In the end, I also called Liu Mei and said that I was back and was going to go to her. Liu Mei was happy for a while and said that she would wait for me to go. After hanging up the phone, I was entangled in my heart, how to explain this thing on my chest to her.
