"Don't think I'm trying to please you, acting in front of you. Gong Xiang turned his head very embarrassedly, but there were irrepressible tears falling from the corners of his eyes, and said: "In fact, I have thought about the big truths you just talked about, and I understand that they are right, but ...... Well, one thing to say, because you told me these truths, so I don't think you will be ridiculed for telling these things to you. ”

"Are you afraid of being ridiculed?" Wen Shuo asked.

"If, like me, you have been ridiculed by classmates, relatives, and friends since you were a child, and you have a ......father who is not doing his job, only superstitious and deceiving, and telling fortunes," Gong Xiang wiped away his tears and said with a smile: "You will also be afraid of being ridiculed." ”

Wen Shuo shook his head and said, "I can understand your feelings, but, one thing to say, I suffered more humiliation when I was a child than you, but I am not afraid of being ridiculed." Because if I'm afraid, it won't do me any good!"

"You also have a superstitious father?" asked Xiao Gongxiang in surprise, but seemed to be a little determined.

"No, my father died when I was eight years old. Wen Shuo didn't have the slightest sad expression, and said, "It's just that my family is very poor, very poor...... Well, of course, I have a master, similar to your father, who is engaged in superstition, and I was laughed at by countless people at the beginning, following an old man who can only draw talismans and chant spells, show people evil diseases, and exorcise ghosts and dance gods to learn some messy things, and later, I did not go to him for three whole years, although his home is very close to my home. ”

Gong Xiang pursed his lips, and then said with some sympathy: "I can understand." ”

"You don't understand. Wen Shuo smiled: "I don't go to see my master, it's not that I care about others laughing at me, but, my mother doesn't agree, I cut off contact with my master for three years in order to make my mother happy and let my mother not be laughed at." ”

Gong Xiang shrugged his shoulders and rolled his eyes, but didn't say anything.

But the fat man, who is well versed in psychology, sees disdain and helplessness in the expression of this young but extremely old child.

The meaning is obvious: "Me too." ”

Of course, Gong Xiang is not the same as the fat man, in order to make his mother happy and cut off contact with the god stick, because the god stick he knows is his own father, and the fat man knows just a poor old man who is lonely, widowed and poor.

However, Gong Xiang is to make his mother happy, so even if he is ridiculed, ridiculed, and looked down upon outside, he will not show his anger when he returns home.

Because he didn't want his mother to be sad, and he didn't want his mother to quarrel with his father about it.

quickly figured this out, and couldn't help but press his hands on Xiao Gongxiang's thin shoulders on both sides, and looked at the little guy with a solemn expression.

Damn it......

He's really only twelve?!

The fat man is now a little skeptical, whether Gong Xiang will be taken away by a great wizard like Naren Tuoya, so that he can have such a mature mind at such a young age - comparable to the fat man I was back then!

In fact, it was no wonder that Wen Shuo had such suspicions, after all, he knew Naren Toya and knew that the witchcraft of rescuing the soul really existed!

His eldest apprentice, Jin Chirui, was even more robbed, fortunately rescued by the Heavenly Tribulation Thunder, not by that mysterious power, but because of the blessing of misfortune, he has a very rare ability!

Gong Xiang's child's mind can no longer be described as precocious.

He has a more delicate, steady and mature heart than many adults, and when he thinks about any problem, he almost always thinks like an adult.

Compared with Wen Shuo back then, it is so bad that he still retains a little innocence, unlike Wen Shuo at the beginning, in the living environment of poverty and fish and dragons, he has been sharpened into a ruthless and cunning temperament like a little devil.

Fortunately, Gong Xiang is not like Wen Shuo's temperament back then.

Otherwise, Wen Shuo would definitely give up accepting Gong Xiang as an apprentice at this moment - because the fat man knows very well that he is an outlier among similar people who grew up in the same living environment, this is not narcissism, but a fact.

Most of the sinister, ruthless and cunning teenagers who are sinister, cruel and cunning at a young age will only go down the wrong path when they grow up!

Sometimes Wen Shuo looks back on his youth, in fact, he can be regarded as taking the wrong path, fortunately, his parents inherited his pure nature, his mother gave him an excellent education, and he is still taking the wrong road, the most easily completely crooked period, met Xu Congjun, a short-tempered but kind and honest police station director!

And Gong Xiang is also lucky!

He has a good family education environment, aside from his father Gong Yigua who is not very competent in raising his son to support the family, Gong Yigua is quiet, good at reading and studying, and Gong Xiang's mother is virtuous and dignified......

Under the influence of his ears and eyes, Gong Xiang's mood is naturally much better than that of many children from ordinary families.

"Small item. Wen Shuo smiled and said, "Now, you tell me the truth, do you want to learn your father's fortune-telling skills?"

Gong Xiang hesitated, shook his head and said, "He won't teach me, because every time I want to look at some of his books, as well as the talismans he writes and draws in the study, he won't let me read them." ”

"Did you ask for it?" Wen Shuo wondered.

"Nope. Gong Xiang pouted and said, "When he draws talismans, he will avoid me, and his talismans, as well as his books, are locked...... I could tell he was deliberately avoiding being seen by me. ”

Wen Shuo nodded and said, "Your father's fortune-telling skills are actually a practice of a metaphysics, and there are five techniques in metaphysics, and your father practices a fortune-telling discipline." He deliberately avoided you, and he really didn't want you to follow him to practice fortune telling, because this is a rule and cannot be passed on to his heirs, so don't blame him. ”

"Metaphysics?Five Techniques?" Gong Xiang's eyes widened in surprise, and he muttered, "Fortune?"

Wen Shuo was not in a hurry to continue, took Gong Xiang's little hand, and continued to board, so that this demonic child could slowly digest this amazing and incredible news.

After about a minute or two, Gong Xiang suddenly asked, "What kind of technique are you cultivating?"

"Probably...... It's divination, right? I don't know. Wen Shuo shook his head and said with a smile: "In this world, there are very few people who know that I practice metaphysics, and your father is one of them. Xiao Xiang, although I betrayed you once in front of your father, I hope that you can keep this secret for me. ”

"Why?" Gong Xiang wondered, "I mean, why don't you let others know?

Wen Shuo quipped: "If your dad really said this like you, he would have made a lot of money a long time ago." ”

"Hmm......" Gong Xiang became more and more confused, and said: "But, but he needs to be known now, so that others will come to him to ask for a hexagram, and he can earn more money." ”

"I can't answer this question, let him explain it to you if your father wants to in the future. Wen Shuo let go of Gong Xiang's little hand and continued to walk to the top of the mountain alone, while saying: "The mystical method I practice, I can't tell fortunes, I can't look at feng shui's face, I can only set up an altar to drive away evil spirits and chase away yin. ”

"Huh?" Gong Xiang was stunned.

"Did you think of the Great Dancer?" Wen Shuo said with a smile.

"No, I thought of it, I thought of ......" Gong Xiang hesitated for a moment and said, "I thought of the Taoist priest in the movie." ”

Wen Shuo shook his head and said: "The Taoist priest in the movie can do anything, look at feng shui physiognomy, divination, fortune telling, ghost hunting and zombie hunting, draw talismans to exorcise evil towns, and master all the five techniques of metaphysics, that is a god, I am not so capable." ”

"Why are you telling me this?" Gong Xiang asked.

Wen Shuo glanced at Gong Xiang's eyes flashing with hope and excitement, thinking to himself how mature he was like a demon, he was only a twelve-year-old child after all!

He said lightly: "I want to take you as an apprentice, are you willing?"

"Huh?" Gong Xiang was pleasantly surprised, and he nodded his head and was about to agree, but when the words came to his mouth, he swallowed them back raw, and whispered a little twisted: "I, I have to go back to this matter, go back and discuss it with my parents and my parents." ”

Wen Shuo pursed his lips disdainfully, feeling disdainful, what is a little fart child, this acting skill is more than 108,000 miles worse than that of the fat man and me? !

"It's not negotiable. Wen Shuo said lightly: "Your parents agreed." ”

"Huh?" Gong Xiang continued to twist, hesitated, lowered his head and blushed, his heart suddenly jumped - he really wanted to agree immediately, this is simply a pie-in-the-sky thing!

Who is not curious and yearning for mystery?

Who has in his heart that there is no martial arts dream that can punish evil and promote good with swords?

And if you want to fight the sword and the rivers and lakes, punish the evil and promote the good, you must have extremely clever martial arts - the kind of martial arts and martial arts in TV series and movies are fictional, Gong Xiang knows that there is no drama, and he has been lost.

But now, an opportunity to practice the Occult Law suddenly fell on his head!

Occult method, subduing demons and eliminating demons, and raising altars...... Compared with the fictional martial arts, it is even more powerful and mysterious!

Putting aside the beautiful reverie of young people, it was only Gong Xiang's curiosity about the set of things that his father had studied and practiced all day since he was a child, especially when his father deliberately avoided it and did not let him see it, day after day, year after year, which made him accumulate more and more desire to find out.

So, how could he not agree?

But doesn't it seem a little ...... to agree so neatly Too unproductive?

Human nature dictates.

Gong Xiang can't do it like Wen Shuo, there is one thing to say.

"In the future, in front of me, there is no need to pretend, agreeing is agreeing, disagreeing is disagreeing, twisting and pinching wastes time, and you may lose a rare opportunity. Wen Shuo patted Gong Xiang's shoulder, and said as he walked: "After worshipping me as a teacher, I will teach you the Xuanfa, but it will not affect your studies, and you must complete your studies well, I will teach you more." ”

Gong Xiang hurriedly responded: "Master, I promise you, study hard and make progress every day!"

"Hmm. Wen Shuo nodded, thinking that this kid was really fast enough to learn, and the results were immediate, and he already had the style of a fat man.

"Then, then I will also go to the capital in the future?"

"You don't have to go anywhere, it's the same as your old life. Wen Shuo said lightly: "I will stay in your house for a few more days, teach you the introduction of practicing the Xuanfa, and slowly practice and comprehend the Xuanfa in the future, I will not urge you, inspect your cultivation progress, cultivation attitude, everything will go naturally." ”
