Chapter 4 Apprenticeship with Tang Qingshan

"Master, I beg you to be my master, and you must accept me as an apprentice."

Shen Li knelt down and kowtowed.

Shen Li thought to himself: "It's not easy to meet a master, you must not miss this opportunity!" ”

The young curator helped Shen Li up and said, "Go back to the martial arts hall." ”

The curator held Shen Li in his arms, and after a burst of volleys, he returned to the martial arts hall in the city in a moment.

"It's getting late today, you go back to rest first, remember not to reveal my identity as a martial arts cultivator, and come to me every night to practice martial arts in the future." The curator said.

"Yes! Master! The disciple still doesn't know the master's name, so I hope the master will tell me. Shen Li clasped his hands into fists and said respectfully.

"Tang Qingshan!"

Every day from now on, Shen Li would go to the martial arts hall at night to find Tang Qingshan to practice martial arts, Tang Qingshan just taught him some seemingly superficial moves, for ten days in a row, and on the eleventh day, Shen Li was a little breathless.

"Master, I've been practicing this for more than ten days, and you can also teach me the 'One Yang Finger'." Shen Li, who was standing on the plum blossom pile, pretended to joke.

"This?" Tang Qingshan pointed out, and with a "bang", a small hole was punched out of the thick courtyard wall of the martial arts hall.

Shen Li, who was standing on the pile, hurriedly ran over and put his eyes on the small hole to look out, and saw the long street sprinkled with white moonlight outside the martial arts hall.

"Such a thick wall, it actually penetrates!"

Shen Li was surprised, but not too surprised, and thought to himself: "If this refers to a person, wouldn't it be dead?" ”

"Want to learn?"

"Then I definitely want to learn!" Shen Li was a little excited.

"I'll teach you in the next few days."

As soon as it was dark on the second day, Shen Li rushed to the martial arts hall.

Shen Li entered the martial arts hall, it was empty, and Tang Qingshan was not waiting for him in the courtyard as usual.

Shen Li was sleepy while practicing the basic skills, so he fell asleep on a recliner, and he didn't know how long he slept.

"Master, who is this person?" When Shen Li heard movement, he opened his eyes, quickly got up, and saw that Tang Qingshan had just thrown a person tied up on the ground.

"Senior! Predecessor! I was wrong, I was really wrong, I don't dare anymore, please spare my life. ”

The person who was tied up was wearing a luxurious blue robe, with several blood holes on his body, medium stature, his hair was scattered, and he was a middle-aged man listening to his voice.

"Then why don't you spare others?" Tang Qingshan snorted coldly.

"Senior, this person should be damned! If an ant-like mortal dares to be disrespectful to us immortal cultivators, I will definitely kill him. ”

"Just because that villager ignored your directions?"

"Yes."

"Do you know that the peasant is deaf? You ask him behind his back, he is so focused on farming that he never sees you? ”

"That ant is actually deaf?" The middle-aged man in the robe was slightly surprised.

"Do you regret killing him now?" Tang Qingshan asked again.

"An ant, kill it, kill it, what's there to regret? Senior, don't kill me, I am the son of the five elders of Qingyunmen, and I, Qingyunmen, will definitely exchange heavy treasures with you, and you won't get anything if you kill me. ”

"Shen Li, you killed him." Tang Qingshan said that he threw a dagger to Shen Li.

Shen Li took the dagger, raised the knife in his hand, and sealed his throat with a knife, and before the son of the fifth elder could even say the words of begging for mercy, he returned to the west.

"You're too fast, aren't you, and you're going to kill him?"

"Didn't you order me to kill him, Master?" Shen Li looked innocent.

"I really shouldn't believe what you said that you haven't even killed chickens at home, I wanted to scare him, and you moved too fast!" Tang Qingshan said helplessly.

Shen Li spread his hands and made an expression.

"Could it be that Master, are you afraid of Qingyunmen's revenge?" Shen Li said tentatively.

"This kind of second-rate sect as a teacher has not been put in my eyes yet." Tang Qingshan said disdainfully.

"Then you don't let me kill him, just agree with what this kid said, ordinary people like me are ants?" Shen Li said again.

"I don't agree."

"Murderers are always killed! I don't care about his five elders and six elders! After more than ten days of getting along, Shen Li found that Tang Qingshan was also an approachable person, so he was naturally free to speak.

"It's a good murderer, and everyone always kills it, and the teacher admires you very much, but the 'One Yang Finger' you want to learn is probably not able to be learned today."

"Master, the apprentice is wrong!" Shen Lixi's upper body was fine, and he knelt on his legs with a crying voice.

"You're right, I suddenly think that this person should be killed now, I originally wanted to abolish his cultivation and punish him, I can let you absorb his cultivation through the secret method, so that your internal strength can be refined, and you can send out finger power, but now there is no way, you can pull him to the backyard and bury it, do it cleanly." I'll go out tomorrow and see if there are any more such fanatics. Tang Qingshan explained to Shen Li the real reason why he was not allowed to kill this person.

"Didn't you say it earlier? I thought you were going to test me! Shen Li was extremely helpless.

Shen Li was digging a pit in the backyard to bury people, muttering.

"You kid is crazy, one bite at a time, and in the end, it wasn't the ants that buried you?"

For seven days, Tang Qingshan did not gain anything.

"I'll teach you "Returning to the Yuan and Absorbing Stars" as a teacher, you still have to find a way to suck it yourself, don't talk about immortal cultivators who are not evil these days, I haven't even seen ordinary immortal cultivators."

Tang Qingshan's fingers touched Shen Li's eyebrows, and in a moment, a book of exercises called "Returning to the Yuan and Absorbing Stars" appeared in Shen Li's mind.

"Master, good means, give me a few more."

"You can't cultivate enough now, give you a few more books and you will become an idiot!" Tang Qingshan shouted.

"Oh, don't give it then." Shen Li's mouth is poor.

"Study hard and rely on yourself!"

"I can't even beat the beginner immortal cultivators now, who can I suck, you still teach me the 'One Yang Finger' exercise." Shen Li pleaded again.

"It's not for the teacher not to teach you, it's not any exercise at all, it's just a simple collection of internal force in the fingers, just a finger, point out the size of the force, and your personal strength is linked, you said 'Yiyang finger' I like the name very much, and when I study a set of fingering, use this name."

"Okay then, Master, is the internal strength of our martial arts all increased by absorbing the true qi of the cultivators?"

"No, you can also practice by yourself, I have a pair of medicines, although there are two less medicines, but I found a substitute, I can barely make it up, you go back and boil it for six hours, and then pour it into a vat, you go in and soak it, absorb the medicinal power, and I will teach you to practice internal strength after soaking."

Shen Li didn't do anything else when he got home, he just found tools and began to boil medicine.

"Young master, what about boiling medicine." The guy Xiao Wu saw Shen Li sitting on a small bench, fanning the little broken pu fan and boiling medicine.

"Yes, boil the medicine." Shen Li said.

"Young master, don't do this kind of thing yourself, I'll cook it." Xiao Wu said.

"Go and get busy with yours, this medicine is very expensive, I can only rest assured if I cook it myself!"

When there is less water, add water, and when the fire is small, add charcoal, and cook from morning to evening, and the thick medicinal fragrance wafts for more than ten miles.

An uninvited guest followed the smell of medicine and found the Shen Mansion.
