Regarding the matter of nine dogs and one mastiff, Chen Letian did not ask any further. Rather, it is an attempt to bring the topic back to the point.

But Li Zhangjiao ignored him and continued to educate him about mastiffs: "Any method of cultivating pillars by violating the way of heaven is fundamentally wrong. The method of mastiffs, if applied to people, is to be ruthless and cold-blooded as the foundation of strength and invincibility. If a person is ruthless and cold-blooded, no matter how strong he is, what is the use? On the contrary, the stronger he is, the more evil he is. ”

Chen Letian nodded like pounding garlic, and said 'yes, yes, yes'.

If Master Liu is here, seeing that Chen Letian's old mistake of not listening to the training seriously has been committed again, it is estimated that he will be beaten up again.

But Li Zhangjiao was not a great master of Liu, so he was not angry at all, and after a pause, he continued: "But what you said is also reasonable, I know that you are a person who is accustomed to high standards for yourself, and Confucius also said that if you take the top and get it, you will get nothing." ”

Chen Letian immediately abandoned the attitude of saying perfunctory, and said in a spirited manner: "That's what the apprentice meant." Master, you are now invincible to ten thousand people, seeking stability first, but the apprentice is still young, and he needs to rush and break through, how can he have the slightest comfort!"

Recently, Li Zhangjiao has found that he likes to talk to Chen Letian more and more.

He hasn't felt this way for a long time, in the past, he liked to talk to Wang Chongyang, talk about everything, talk about everything, and then Chongyang gradually grew up, and he had something on his mind again. As the elder brother in charge, he is anxious in his eyes, but he can't show the slightest, once he shows it, it will increase the burden on Wang Chongyang's heart.

In addition, several other juniors and disciples respect him very much, and when they speak, although they do not speak in a low voice, they can't let go.

Over the years, I have had a good chat with General Li Rongsheng, but the general is busy with military affairs, and the number of times he comes to Wudang Mountain is very rare. Therefore, there are almost no people around Li Zhangjiao who can speak their minds freely.

But this newly recruited apprentice, Chen Letian. It's really special.

If he is serious, he will not make people feel inappropriate, and if he is not serious, he will be able to forget his identity as a master.

From the emperor to the temple and the merchant and the pawn, Chen Letian can say the truth, although many ideas are not necessarily right, but they are all conclusions after a long period of thinking.

"Lotte, who is your teacher?" asked Li Zhangjiao after a long night of talking with Chen Letian about half a month ago.

"My teacher's name is Liu Lisheng, just an ordinary Confucian student, who has never been an official in his life, and has not done much. Not long after I returned to Beijing this time, the teacher went on a long trip, and I asked the teacher when he would come back, but the teacher said that he would not come back, and that it would matter where he went. Chen Letian said, when he mentioned the teacher, he missed it very much, but after thinking about it, maybe the teacher is talking about poetry and songs with a woman by the brook by the maple tree, and he is having a good time.

Li Zhangjiao thought for a moment, and couldn't remember that among the Confucian scholars in Bianjing, there was such a figure. Judging from Chen Letian's level, his teacher should not be an unknown person. However, after hearing Chen Letian say that Liu Lisheng followed his father Chen Qiwu all his life, Li Xuantong was relieved. People who have been with Ling Zun all their lives naturally do not seek fame and fortune. ”

Chen Letian smiled: "Haha, it's strange if you don't want fame and fortune, I remember the teacher told me that when he was young, he liked a woman, but that woman fell in love with a rich son with a prominent family. The angry gentleman was determined to gain fame in the exam, but after taking the exam three or four times, he didn't succeed, so he was discouraged. The examination field was not good, and the teacher wanted to go into business to make money, but after a few years, he didn't earn a penny, so he gave up again. When my father was alive, he often used to laugh about it, and later I often made fun of the teacher with this, but strangely, the teacher was not angry at all, and sometimes he would discuss with me whether the sweetheart was doing well now..."

Li Zhangjiao couldn't help but laugh and said: "You, even the teacher's unspeakable things are taken out to laugh, then Mr. Liu is really..."

"Master, if you want to do anything unspeakable, such as saying who you like about a girl, you can also tell me, in the past, when the teacher discussed with me, I was still young, and I was thinking blindly with him, but now it is different, now I am a veteran of flowers, and I will definitely be able to give you good advice to Master. ”

"Nonsense!" Li Zhangjiao frowned, but then couldn't help but laugh again.

Li Zhangjiao enjoyed this kind of conversation with Chen Letian.

Although sometimes there is no rule of respect for the elder and the young, it will not make him, a master, feel the slightest uncomfortable.

Once, Wang Chongyang saw Senior Brother Palm coming out of Chen Letian's house with a smile on his face, so he leaned up and asked, "Senior Brother Palm, I see that every time you finish talking to Chen Letian, you are in a good mood, why?"

Li Zhangjiao said, "Aren't you like this yourself?"

Wang Chongyang scratched his head and stood in place for a while, and muttered, "Hey, it seems to be true!"

After that, Wang Chongyang went to find the second senior brother, the third senior brother, and the fourth senior brother, and told them about this new discovery. The senior brothers thought about it carefully and nodded their heads one after another, saying that they were the same, and every time they talked to Chen Letian, they would feel comfortable.

Several Wudang Mountain real people then expressed their opinions and discussed why Chen Letian was able to do this.

"He is very good at talking, obviously not good, through his mouth, around the bush and vinegar, so that people do not sound so bad; Second Senior Brother Zhao Huating said.

"I don't think so, he won't say anything bad to you at all, he chooses to say that you don't have good eyes, he doesn't tell you this word at all, you are sleepy, he tells you how important dozing is to practice. "The third senior brother tortoise Mengdao.

The real people were discussing Chen Letian here, Chen Letian kept sneezing in his room, several times in a row, he rubbed his nose and said, "Who is thinking about me?"

In the other hand, he was reading a copy of the Taoist book that had just been copied. During this time, after he had the privilege of entering and leaving the Pavilion freely, he had to spend an hour in the Pavilion almost every day.

During the day, he fought against the poisons in the Heavenly Dao Cliff, and he woke up in the middle of the night, ignoring the obstruction of the master in charge, carrying a lantern, and running into the Tibetan Scripture Pavilion to read at night.

Wang Chongyang allowed him to transcribe the books in the cave, which was too useful for him. In this way, he copied the contents of the book, and he could also take the book into the Heavenly Dao Cliff to read. Sometimes, while waiting for the poison, he could read a book, which could be regarded as a method of cultivation.
