Chapter 4: The Second Prequel: The Beginning of Evil
Qi Yunsheng, Duan or Gen and the truck driver finally finished unloading their things.
Watching Qi Yunsheng send the truck driver, after the truck walked away all the way on the dirt road, Huang Banxian drank the last sip of tea in the cup, straightened up, walked to the middle of the yard, looked at the pile of things that had just been unloaded and said to the remaining two teenagers: "Come on, young masters, it's time to make some efforts, carry your things, and go up the mountain!" ”
The three of them divided the things on the ground, and then tied them tightly with a wide band, and after Huang Banxian checked that it was correct, the three of them carried their own bags. Each person weighs about fifty pounds.
There was no road into the mountain at all, and Huang Banxian led the two of them to try to find a gentle slope to walk. Halfway through, Huang Banxian took off the Walkman headphones that Qi Yunsheng was wearing, put them on Duan or Gen's ear, and asked Qi Yunsheng to take off the Walkman and hand it to Duan or Gen. Then he began to educate Qi Yunsheng: "Although you don't learn art, you are nominally my apprentice." We have rules and regulations, and if you deceive him with his own wisdom and give him his own goods, I will not only not speak of you, but also praise you for your good work. Now, you're ready to play. If it was known by my fellow Jianghu who knew me, he said that the apprentice I Huang received was not intelligent enough to cheat the money, so he would rob it instead. Where do you say your master's old face can be placed? ”
"It's not like you won't let me learn your skills." Qi Yun rose back to his mouth.
Huang Banxian continued to follow the temptation: "I don't let you learn because I want you to take a shortcut that most people choose. Do you think that people like your master and me are the ones who take shortcuts? No, those who take the right path take the real shortcut. And it was the rough mountain road we were taking, just like the one we are walking under our feet now. You are still young, and there are some things you don't understand, but you will know when you grow up. ”
Qi Yunsheng obviously didn't agree, but he didn't reply again, probably because he was afraid that his master would be angry.
Huang Banxian continued: "I have also heard about your performance in recent years. Fights and brawls, extortion of money. Alas! I was really disappointed. I've been busy in the past few years, don't I just want you to take it easy and don't take the detours I have taken. It seems that my vision has fallen apart. But that's not the point I'm going to talk about today. ”
Huang Banxian paused, turned his head and looked directly into Qi Yunsheng's eyes and said, "Even if you have to go off the rails, you should also take the elegant path of our Jianmen, instead of their Fengmen fighting and killing." Fengmen is the most sinister of our eight gates, once you have blood on your hands, once you carry your life, you will never turn back. ”
Huang Banxian stopped, stretched out his hand to stop Duan or Gen, who was walking and listening to the song, and motioned for him to stop and rest. Then he found a place to sit down, and continued to Qi Yunsheng: "Mencius said: It is unfilial to be brave and ruthless to endanger his parents. Although I am not your biological parent, it is not an exaggeration to boast that I am your biological parent, right? ”
Qi Yunsheng first helped the master unload the weight on his back, and then unloaded his own body. He didn't find a place to sit down like the other two, but knelt down in front of Huang Banxian with tears in his eyes.
"It's still light to say that you are not filial. Although we are in the middle of the road, the more this is the case, the more we should pay attention to the rules. The people in the wind gate have their own rules and worldview, and it is inconvenient for me to comment. But Master, this branch of the scarf door where I am has always regarded oppressing the good and blackmailing the weak as shameless villains. Those of us who study will never be in the company of them. ”
There was a sobbing sound in front of Huang Banxian. He reached out and touched the top of Qi Yunsheng's head, and said, "Ever since I knew that you were not a safe person, I was thinking about how to guide you so as not to cause your rebellious mentality. I'm bringing you here today to show you how the people in our scarf door make money, and what kind of money they earn. After reading it, you have to make a choice, whether to go to school and study hard, or go to the wrong door to learn art from the master, or continue to fight bravely and kill and rob. You have to think about it before you choose. ”
Huang Banxian sternly looked at Qi Yunsheng, who was blurred with teary eyes, and added: "If you choose the latter, don't tell people that you are my apprentice in the future." ”
Qi Yunsheng knelt on the ground, and had changed from sobbing to crying.
Huang Banxian waited for a while and didn't see Qi Yunsheng say anything, so he couldn't help frowning. He glanced back at the section or root who was shaking his head and listening to the song with his back to them, and found no sign of him eavesdropping. So he lowered his head and put his mouth into Qi Yunsheng's ear and said, "Do you particularly like to beat and bully people?" Do you feel a special sense of joy when you hit someone? ”
Qi Yunsheng raised his head and glanced at his master with teary eyes, and nodded slightly.
"Trouble! It seems that after this important thing is done, I will take him to see a psychiatrist. Huang Banxian thought to himself. He has a lot of knowledge, and in order to better deceive people, he has a lot of knowledge in psychology. He judged that Qi Yunsheng already had a slight sadistic tendency and needed professional psychological counseling.
"It's all the good things done by the scum of those beggars back then, leaving such a bane for the child." Huang Banxian scolded in his heart. He felt that it was the cruelty he had seen too much back then that led to Qi Yunsheng's abnormal psychology now.
But just now he had finished talking, so he had to come back again: "What I just said not to let you be my apprentice anymore is for the sake of my reputation as a scarlet sect." If you have to choose to fight and kill, I don't want you anymore. You are brought up by me with my own hands, and you have always regarded it as if you have come out, if you don't call Master, you will call Father instead. Anyway, no matter what you become, this family business I have earned will not be passed on to you sooner or later! Huang Banxian said this because he thought that it was a disease, so he should treat it slowly, not in a hurry.
After Qi Yunsheng respectfully kowtowed to Huang Banxian three times, he stepped forward to hug Huang Banxian's legs, buried his face in his knees, and said, "Master, I was rescued by you and brought up with one hand, and your teachings have always been in my heart. I'm not the kind of person who is unfilial. I will definitely resist the urge to hit people in the future. No more fighting, killing, and learning to pretend to be a scholar like Master. I won't call you father, because I don't know how many times I have abandoned my so-called biological parents since I was a child, and in my heart the word parents is a curse, so I won't call you father. I've been your apprentice all my life. ”
Huang Banxian listened, touched Qi Yunsheng's head, couldn't help but cry sadly, and said: "Knowing that mistakes can be changed, good is great!" Good boy! ”。 He patted Qi Yunsheng on the shoulder, motioned for him to get up, and turned back to Duan Hegen and shouted, "Okay, enough rest!" Keep walking. ”
He turned around and was about to help his apprentice carry the burden on his shoulders, when he suddenly saw the tears and snot sticky on the brand-new slacks on his knees, and he couldn't help but slap his palm on the back of Qi Yunsheng's head, and scolded with a smile: "You just shed some tears, why do you still wipe the snot on my pants!" Before he could wait for the apprentice to reply, he suddenly remembered the apprentice's speech when he repented just now, and scolded again: "What does it mean to learn to pretend to be a scholar like a master?" Your master was originally a scholar, okay? I'm really excited to spit out the truth, what do you think of me in your heart? Think I'm illiterate and pretend to be a reader, right? ”
Qi Yunsheng knew that Master said this to ease the excitement of the two of them just now, so he climbed the pole and joked: "Master, you know that you are going to climb the mountain today, so you shouldn't wear such good pants!" As for what I think of you, I think so, I always think that you are the best master of deception in the rivers and lakes, so you look like a scholar because you are good at disguise and high in deception. Now that you say that you are a real scholar, then I will retract my comment that you are a master of deception. ”
"Smack!" , Qi Yunsheng received another blow on the back of the head.
Duan or Gen couldn't hear what they said, but he didn't know what the situation was when he saw his master and apprentice crying and making trouble. Out of instinctive fear of Qi Yunsheng, he hurriedly took off his headphones and returned them to Qi Yunsheng along with his Walkman. Qi Yunsheng glanced at him and took it casually.
