Chapter 24: Apprenticeship

“……”

Du Ling didn't answer, and the words of the disciple guarding the door were like a thorn in his heart.

He was not angry, but arched his hand to the disciple and said, "Thank you for your advice." ”

The disciple guarding the door was also very simple, waved his hand, pointed to the foot of Longhu Mountain, and said, "Please go down the mountain." ”

Du Ling turned his head and silently glanced at the majestic Heavenly Master's Mansion, and then turned around and went down the mountain, without any nostalgia.

……

At the second stop, Du Ling came to Kongtong Mountain.

Their reception method was the same as that of Longhu Mountain, and the disciples who guarded the gate directly threw Du Ling a test stone.

Du Ling didn't say much, put his hand on the test stone, and waited until an inexplicable force attacked, and was instantly crushed by the system.

Therefore, the result was the same as before, Du Ling was politely invited back by the disciple who guarded the mountain.

Du Ling was not discouraged, and after that, he traveled to Wudang Mountain, Jiuhua Mountain, Songshan, Zhong~Nanshan, and visited various major sects, however, the results were unsatisfactory.

……

Helplessly, when Du Ling was about to go home, he suddenly saw the towering Mount Emei, standing in the clouds and mist, like a fairyland on earth.

The lonely Du Ling, his heart was alive again, and he was ready to climb Mount Emei.

Thinking so, he got up and went up the mountain.

Three hours later, Du Ling came to the mountain gate.

A young female disciple walked over from not far away and asked, "Little donor, what are you doing?" ”

Du Ling thought for a while and said, "This sister, I'm here to learn from a teacher, can you make it convenient for me to go up the mountain first?" ”

The female disciple's name was Zhong Zhiyue, and her beautiful eyes stared at Du Ling, revealing vigilance.

After a while, her eyes were not good, and she suddenly snorted coldly: "Where did you come from, the deceitful girl actually deceived me to Mount Emei?" ”

Du Ling was stunned, and looked at Zhong Zhiyue blankly, what did this person say? He just wants to apprentice and cultivate, how did he deceive the little girl?

Zhong Zhiyue frowned slightly, glanced at Du Ling, who was glazed over, and couldn't help muttering, "How is this person stupid?" ”

After a long time, Du Ling finally recovered, he still looked at Zhong Zhiyue and asked, "Is there any misunderstanding in this?" It was my first time to come to Mount Emei. ”

"For the first time?"

Zhong Zhiyue stared at Du Ling suspiciously, pursed her lips and said, "That's what every man says, no matter how many times it's the first time to ......."

Du Ling was stunned again, why did he get involved in this topic? Isn't it time to discuss the matter of cultivation?

"This sister ......"

Du Ling pondered for a while and said, "I came to apprentice sincerely, but I don't have time to deceive the women of good families. ”

Zhong Zhiyue stared at Du Ling for a long time, and when she saw the latter's undisguised expression, she suddenly felt relieved, and thought that Du Ling had been calling her sister, and her heart was sweet.

Her face was slightly red, and she said, "Little donor, Mount Emei has always only accepted female disciples. ”

"Huh?"

Du Ling was stunned, his body was slightly stiff, no wonder he came to apprentice and was regarded as a liar.

A smile forced out of his face and explained: "This sister, I really don't know the rules of Mount Emei, and I hope to forgive me." ”

Zhong Zhiyue looked at Du Ling directly, and suddenly said, "The exercises of the Hundred Flowers Palace are not suitable for men. ”

"I see that you are eager to apprentice, why don't you go to other sects to go for a while?"

Du Ling shook his head and sighed: "I have been rejected by various major sects one after another, maybe I really have no talent." ”

"No talent?"

Zhong Zhiyue asked, "Then are you good at it?" What will happen? ”

Du Ling thought for a while and said bluntly: "I will grow vegetables and sell vegetables......"

Zhong Zhiyue's head was full of black lines, and Du Ling said again: "I can also have some basic sword styles." ”

Zhong Zhiyue's eyes lit up and said, "Let's try it?" ”

With that, she handed the sword in her hand to Du Ling, who took the sword, thought about it, and only played thirteen sword styles such as stabbing, splitting, and pointing.

Zhong Zhiyue looked straight at it, and said secretly in her heart: "The disciples who have been in the mountain for a year are not as skilled as him. ”

Then, she lowered her head and thought for a while, and said, "Little donor, Mount Emei does not accept male disciples.

I'll show you the way, Shushan is a sword cultivation sect that has been inherited for thousands of years, and you can worship Shushan with these thirteen basic sword styles. ”

Du Ling's heart moved, his eyes enlarged, he looked straight at Zhong Zhiyue, and asked in surprise, "Really?" ”

Zhong Zhiyue nodded, Du Lingchang shook to the ground, thanked her, and then hurriedly went down the mountain.

Zhong Zhiyue looked at the back of Du Ling, who was in a hurry, and had more expectations in her heart.

……

Without saying anything all the way, Du Ling tossed and turned, and after two days of bumps, he finally arrived at the foot of Shu Mountain.

Looking at the mountains in front of him, there was a trace of expectation and yearning in his heart, he went all the way up, the empty valley was secluded, and the atmosphere was pervasive, refreshing. Until the end of the day, I couldn't help but admire: "What an immortal mountain Qiongge." ”

When he arrived at the Shushan Gate, he was still the same as before, and the disciple who guarded the Mountain Gate brought him a test stone.

Du Ling took the test stone and said, "Senior brother, can I show you what I have learned, the thirteen basic sword styles?" ”

Cao Yu's face was unhappy and said, "Who is your senior brother?" ”

Then, he continued to scold: "If you want to enter Shushan, do things according to the rules, or leave here quickly." ”

Du Ling's face was slightly gloomy, he held the test stone tightly in his hand, and his eyes were staring at Cao Yu. He didn't have a seizure, because this was Cao Yu's territory.

After a while, the results of the test stone were the same as before, and there was no fluctuation by half a point.

Cao Yu snatched back the test stone from Du Ling's hand, and said tauntingly: "That's it, you still want to enter Shu Mountain?" Dream on. ”

Du Ling's hands were clenched, his body trembled slightly, and the next moment, a wooden sword appeared in his hand.

"Haha, is this the famous Shushan?"

Just when Du Ling couldn't suppress his anger and wanted to make a move, a laugh suddenly came from the bottom of the mountain.

Du Ling silently withdrew the wooden sword and stepped aside, and then, he looked at the two people who were strolling up the mountain at the bottom of the mountain, an old man and a young man, both wearing Taoist robes and carrying swords on their backs.

At this time, a voice came from the mountain: "Brother Dao came from afar, I don't know what to teach?" ”

Du Ling looked at Shushan and said secretly in his heart: "This person should be a big man, and his voice is so deafening from afar." ”

The old Taoist held his beard in his hand and said with a smile: "Old Dao, I recently accepted a new disciple, and I have come to worship the mountain." ”

There was an uproar inside Shushan, and the two people said that they were worshipping the mountain, but they actually came to block the door.

You must know that it is a disgraceful thing to be blocked in the cultivation world, and it is better to say that if you win, if you lose, you will completely lose face and be ridden on the head.

A cold cheer came from Shushan: "Rotten Wood Daoist, don't deceive people too much, in Shushan, you can't turn the sky." ”

"What do you mean by this, Brother Dao?"

The Rotten Wood Daoist was puzzled, and pretended to be puzzled: "I'm here just to let the disciples see the strength of the Shushan Sword Immortal and have a friendly exchange with the disciples, why is it too much of a deception?" ”
