Chapter 692: The Old Friend (I)
Xiao Daotong looked puzzled, and he didn't know what to do. After all, the person who can say this sentence should not be an ordinary person.
Xuanhu smiled and continued: "In this way, you go and ask your master to know the guest, and you can say that there is a person named Xuanhu who wants to see you." This also saves you from being embarrassed in the middle, what do you think? ”
Xiao Daotong thought for a while and nodded seriously: "I'm sorry for you to wait here." ”
After a while, the Lingxu Daoist took two personal Taoist priests and walked out of the main hall, and when he saw Xuanhu, the Lingxu real person was stunned for a moment, and then strode up to meet him.
Lingxu Dao Chang stroked his beard on his chest: "Oh, I just knew that the guest came to me, I thought it was a duplicate name, but it's really you!" ”
Xuanhu laughed and teased: "The threshold of your grand view is really high, I have to wait for you here when I come." ”
Lingxu Dao Chang laughed, and hurriedly responded: "Look at what you say, come quickly, come in first." ”
Along the way, the Lingxu Daoist and Xuanhu talked and laughed, and Yu Lan and I followed closely behind, and I felt more and more that the relationship between Xuanhu and Lingxu Daoist seemed to be not ordinary.
Entering the guest room, the Lingxu Daoist sat down on the Taishi chair in the middle hall first, and the position on the left was reserved for Xuanhu.
This is not a place that anyone can sit on, and its name is "Guest Seat", as the name suggests, it is for distinguished guests. And this move also completely confirmed my thoughts, the relationship between them is by no means as simple as I see.
It's just that, if there is such a relationship, why didn't Xuanhu tell me before I left?
I was thinking to myself on the side, and the Lingxu Dao Elder opened his mouth first: "First your apprentice came, and you ran over from the northeast again, what are you two tossing?" ”
Xuanhu smiled heartily: "Erxing Qianli's mother is worried, I can't be a mother, I can be a father for him." ”
Lingxu Dao was stunned for a moment: "Your son? ”
Xuanhu looked at me and said a little proudly: "Yes, isn't the apprentice a son?" ”
Hearing this, my heart trembled involuntarily, this is the first time that Xuanhu has disclosed my identity, and this identity directly puts me in the position of "apprentice".
The title of apprentice is found in all walks of life, and relatively speaking, it is more common among some craftsmen.
The older generation accepts apprentices, which are divided into two kinds, one is "love apprentice", and the other is "child apprentice". The biggest difference between these two titles is that when the old gentleman who loves the apprentice learns the skills, he has to pay tuition, and when he finishes learning one day, he can leave the master, and the master must not stop him; The apprentice is to eat and live with the master since he was a child, the master taught him skills, and he didn't want a penny, the apprentice in Pingli received some red and white ceremonies, made some money, and gave the master some symbolic handover, if one day, the apprentice learned, he couldn't go, he had to give the master a pension, this apprentice was like a son, so it was called "child apprentice".
Nowadays, there are many people who accept apprentices, but there are very few people who dare to recognize their children. After all, people's hearts are no longer ancient, and it is not uncommon for church apprentices to starve their masters to death.
The Spirit Void Dao Master looked at me and said with a slight reproach: "You kid, you have such a relationship, why didn't you say it earlier?" ”
Good guy, Xuanhu didn't tell me anything, your old man is playing dumb riddles with me again, how do I know what the relationship between you is. Besides, I only found out today that I am Xuanhu's apprentice.
Xuanhu smiled, quietly glanced at Yu Lan again, cleared his throat and said, "I'm coming to you this time, mainly for two things." ”
"There's one thing about your apprentice's arm, right?"
"Clever!"
Lingxu Dao Chang blew the hot air wafting from the tea bowl: "What's the other thing?" ”
Xuanhu pointed at Yu Lan with his chin: "My daughter-in-law." ”
The tea that the Spirit Void Dao Master had just put in his mouth almost squirted out, and asked with some consternation, "Isn't this your honorary master?" ”
"Your head is still a tendon, so the honorary head can't be my apprentice's daughter-in-law?" Xuanhu said leisurely.
Lingxu Dao Chang held the tea bowl in mid-air, and asked inexplicably, "She is your daughter-in-law, and then what?" What are you going to say? ”
