Chongming asked Feng Xinghe to find a filial and grateful, smart and well-behaved boy to be Lin Xiaoyue's apprentice.

Feng Xinghe said: With Miss Lin's ability, the person who wants to be her apprentice is like a fish crossing the river, why do you want me to help. Chongming said: If people know her ability, there will naturally be many people who want to worship her as a teacher. Miss Lin is good at everything, but she is too soft-hearted, and I am afraid that she will be soft-hearted and take trouble as an apprentice.

Feng Xinghe said: Miss Lin is smart, how can she not know the wisdom of people.

Chongming said: She is too soft-hearted, knowing that it is trouble, but because the other party is in a pitiful situation and taking in and helping the other party, she has accepted a willful and squeamish female apprentice, not only to teach with all her heart, but also to help her solve all kinds of troubles, and plan the future for her lifelong happiness, even if she is a parent, it is difficult to do so much.

Feng Xinghe said: It sounds like Miss Lin's beloved apprentice is very blessed, she doesn't serve her master after apprenticing, and she dares to be willful, so she doesn't punish her well.

Chongming said: Don't talk about punishment, I haven't even reprimanded a heavy word, I am willful and petted, and I am reasonable when I make mistakes and speak good words. also sent treasures (spirit stones) and secret recipes (salt refining technology) to her and her family, and what you didn't expect was to send treasures to help her repay her favors. (Send spirit stones to silver without makeup)

Feng Xinghe took a sip of tea, suppressed his shock, and said: Only apprentices have always given gifts and secret recipes to Shizun, helping Shizun solve troubles to please Shizun, but it is the other way around on Miss Lin's side, if a person with a bad heart becomes Miss Lin's apprentice, it would be terrible.

Chongming said: Although the female apprentice is willful, she is simple and kind, and will not do anything evil. She has enjoyed wealth and affection since she was a child, and she can turn evil into good fortune when she is in trouble, she doesn't have to do anything, she is surrounded by people who love her with all her heart, and they are all strong or powerful people.

Feng Xinghe said: It's really a rare person with deep luck, I will carefully choose a good apprentice for Miss Lin.

Feng Xinghe asked Chongming about Lilith again.

After Lin Xiaoyue bought the barbecue oily meat, she rode back to find Chongming on a donkey and met Sangouzi. Sangouzi's face is haggard, due to the recent war, taxes have increased, the common people have a hard time, and it is even more difficult to find work. After the three dogs saw Lin Xiaoyue, they turned their faces away with a weak heart, after all, they knocked Lin Xiaoyue a lot of silver.

Lin Xiaoyue rode a donkey to Sangouzi and said: Sangouzi, I entrust the cabbage to a reliable person, so that it will not be affected by the war, and I can still have no worries about food and clothing.

Sangouzi's face was gloomy and he said: That girl is really blessed.

Lin Xiaoyue sighed and rode away on a donkey. People really don't change easily, and it's hard to find out where their problems are. Sangouzi can't understand his own happiness because he has little affection for his relatives. He once wanted to help Sangouzi change his fate, but he stopped seeing his indifference to cabbage. Jade Barnacle is simple and kind, and he hates Sangouzi because he is flattering but insincere. Chongming opposed helping Sangouzi because he was greedy and ungrateful and content.

On the way back, Lin Xiaoyue also met Du Dalang's daughter-in-law, Erya, with a few dolls to buy vegetables. The dolls saw the roasted oil in Lin Xiaoyue's hands, their eyes straightened, and their drools drooled. Lin Xiaoyue asked Erya how her life was recently.

Erya said with a satisfied face: Boss Tuolin's blessing, no one in the family is hungry.

Lin Xiaoyue gave some roast oil and meat to Erya and a few dolls. After they thanked Lin Xiaoyue, they ate it with relish. Erya left some roast oil and meat to wrap up, saying that it was for Du Dalang to taste. After Lin Xiaoyue went back, she heard that Feng Xinghe was still asking Chongming about Lilith. Lin Xiaoyue put the roasted oil meat on the stone table and let them taste it.

Chongming loves to eat barbecued meat, so he eats it. Feng Xinghe has a light taste, and he is not used to eating such oily food, so he just tasted it politely. The three of them tasted tea and ate meat, chatted for a while, Chongming and Feng Xinghe were very talkative, and the official characters were two mouths, worthy of being political people.

As soon as the sun went down, the three-person party dispersed. After Feng Xinghe returned to Xuanqing Sect, he began to inquire about which boy was filial, intelligent, and sensible. Everyone thought that Feng Xinghe wanted to accept a waiter, and being a waiter by Feng Xinghe's side was promising, that is, he could learn the exercises, and he could enter and exit the nobles, so they recommended them one after another.

Feng Xinghe's personal guard Bai Yang had a sense of crisis and asked Feng Xinghe if he didn't serve his son well. Feng Xinghe appeased Poplar and made it clear that he didn't want to take the boy.

The crowd found more than 30 boys, all of whom were born into wealthy families or official eunuchs.

In the first level, more than 30 children's poetry books were examined. After the exam, more than 20 children were deleted. In the second level, I checked the cultivation qualifications, and deleted seven more boys. Now there are five boys left.

The third and most important level is to test the character. If he has a bad character and is sent to Lin Xiaoyue to cultivate, he will become a scourge one day.

Feng Xinghe sent the five boys to play in the back garden, and said that they would be examined again tomorrow. They also gave a variety of delicacies and toys to the five children. The boys began to play, and suddenly they heard a whining sound in the grass, and the boy followed the sound and saw a little yellow dog with an injured leg in the grass. Some of the boys continued to play and ignored them, and some of them played tricks on the little yellow dog with branches. Only one boy bandaged the little yellow dog's wounds and fed the little yellow dog meat and bones to eat.

Feng Xinghe was secretly observing, and instructed Poplar to send the other boys home, leaving only the boy holding the little yellow dog.

The boy left behind is called Chen An, nine years old, his father's name is Chen Haosi, he is a six-grade petty official in the capital, his father is honest and upright, and his family is a scholarly disciple. Chen An looks like a boy in a picture, with big black eyes, a white and round face, very cute, and very well-behaved and sensible.

Feng Xinghe asked Chen An: Little Chen Gongzi, are you willing to apprentice and cultivate.

Chen An blinked his eyes and said, "Young Master Feng, you want to take me as an apprentice."

Feng Xinghe said: I worship someone who is more powerful than me as a teacher.

Chen An hugged the gift and said: Young Master Xie Feng is kind, it's just that my father is honest and can't afford the expensive apprenticeship, so he asked me to be a waiter and learn some subtle spells.

Feng Xinghe said: Don't worry about the apprenticeship, you just need to remember the kindness of your future master.

Feng Xinghe gave Chen An to Lin Xiaoyue as an apprentice. Lin Xiaoyue already likes children, and Chen An is so cute, well-behaved and smart, and she likes Chen An very much.

Chen An was quite nervous when he apprenticed, and took twenty taels of silver (all the New Year's money) and a piece of topaz jade pendant (mother's dowry) to Lin Xiaoyue as an apprenticeship.

Although Chen An is small but smart and sensible, he knows that the apprenticeship is too few and does not conform to the rules, but he only has so much. Chen An said timidly: Master, the apprentice will make up for the apprenticeship in the future.

Lin Xiaoyue didn't care about any apprenticeship ceremony, and accepted twenty taels of silver, and returned the topaz jade pendant to Chen An.

Lin Xiaoyue picked up Chen An, who was worshipping, and said: An An, you don't have to put the apprenticeship on your body, you will be my apprentice in the future.

Lin Xiaoyue dragged Chen An to the street, bought daily necessities for him, and bought a bunch of children's toys for him.

Chongming looked at Chen An and smiled bitterly, he was about to fall out of favor again, but seeing that this little baby was kind and sensible, and he would repay Lin Xiaoyue well when he grew up, he felt a sense of relief.

Lin Xiaoyue first taught Chen An Xiao Zhou Tian Gongfa, and then taught him the Three Character Sutra. Chen An is a legendary child of someone else's family, he doesn't need to be disciplined and taught, he will consciously read and practice, never talk nonsense, and he also took the initiative to contract all the housework at home.

Lin Xiaoyue felt that it was child abuse to let such a young child buy groceries, cook, and clean. Chongming said that this was what the apprentice should do for the master. You can't raise Chen An like raising jade barnacles, otherwise where is the majesty of the master. After all, in Yu and Liang, the way the master and the apprentice get along is like this.

Lin Xiaoyue would give Chen An a tael of silver as pocket money every month, Chongming shook his head helplessly, Lin Xiaoyue was probably the first master to send money to his apprentice.

The words are divided into two ends. In Wenzhou City, Yuan Hong, the marshal of the Yu State, and Yuzhi, the witch king, were discussing how to deal with Liang Chao'an, the marshal of the Liang State.

Marshal Yuan Hong's generals Wei Zhong, Zhang Zixuan, Lu Fengming, Yuan Tianhuang and other generals led the soldiers and horses to fight head-on, containing Liang Chaoan's generals Zhang Dazhu, Skullcap and other generals, as well as the cavalry of Liang. Then the Witch King and Yuan Hong killed Liang Chao'an together, and as soon as the enemy marshal died, the dragons were leaderless, and the troops were naturally defeated and retreated.

Yuan Hong said: The witch king also ignored a person, chan naihe, this person's cultivation should not be underestimated.

The witch king said: Although this person's cultivation is profound, but judging by this person's words and deeds, he will not do his best to fight.

Yuan Hong agreed.

After the Witch King is gone. Yuan Hong also consulted with Zhang Zixuan, Lu Fengming and other generals, and the generals thought that they needed to guard against the witch king. Lu Fengming suggested that he and Yuan Tianhuang should not go to war and stay in the barracks, so as not to prevent the Witch King from rebelling and sneaking into the base camp.

Yuan Hong ordered Situ to spy on the Witch King during the battle, and if the Witch King turned against the water, he would kill him.

On the side of the Liangguo army, Marshal Liang Chao'an discussed the battle with Gong Renyu, Skullcap, Zhang Dazhui and other generals, and sent someone to invite Chanaihe, but Channai refused to attend the meeting on the grounds of sleeping and beautifying.

Liang Chao'an said: The witch king sent me a secret letter, he deceived Yuan Hong, the Wu soldiers ambushed in the rear of our army and the Yu soldiers in front of the Liang army, and then used the subordinate generals to hold you, the witch king and Yuan Hong together to kill me, in fact, the Wu soldiers and our side worked together to deal with the Yu soldiers, and then cooperated with me to kill Yuan Hong, Yuan Hong died, the Yu country dragons have no leader, and the Yu country will be defeated.

Zhang Dazhui is a rough man who doesn't know strategy, so he agrees.

Skullcap said: I'm afraid that the witch king will rebel against the water, and he will join forces with Yuan Hong to kill the marshal you.

Gong Renyu thought for a while and said: If the Witch King deals with Yuan Hong, this plan is feasible, in order to prevent him from dealing with the marshal, install shield troops and archers in the rear of our army to guard against the Witch soldiers, and secretly install Channai He in front to monitor the Witch King, if he reverses the water, Channai He will kill him.

Skullcap sneered: Who instructed Chanai.

Gong Renyu said: I have my own way.

Harem Renyu used his wife's beauty secret recipe and invited Chanai.

The Witch King first sent Bigu Jian and Baili Shen to lead 30,000 Wu soldiers to lurk in the rear of the Liang army at night. The day of the decisive battle came, and the soldiers and horses of the two sides fought. When the two marshals Yuan Hong and Liang Chao'an were fighting, Situ Changkong and Chan Nai He were staring at the witch king Yuzhi in the dark, ready to wait for the time to move.

However, Yuan Hong and Liang Chao'an fought for half an hour, but the Witch King still did not move.

General Zhang Zixuan felt that something was wrong, so he came to the Witch King with light skills, asked the Witch King to fight, and called a few times, but the Witch King did not move. Zhang Zixuan felt even more abnormal, so he slapped the witch king on the shoulder with his hand, and as a result, white smoke came out of the witch king's body and turned into a paper figure, which was the puppet technique of the witch clan.

Yuan Hong and Liang Chao'an were surprised when they saw the paper man, wondering what conspiracy the witch king had with the enemy, so they temporarily truceed the war and returned to the military camp to take precautions in case of a plan.

Yuan Hong and Liang Chao'an both sent spies to investigate the whereabouts of the Wu King and the Wu soldiers, and after discovering that the Wu soldiers were lurking behind the soldiers of the Liang Kingdom, they went to the southwest

Yuan Hong and Liang Chao'an didn't know why the witch king had escaped.

Liang Chao'an consulted with the generals, and the skullcap generals suspected that the witch king was pretending to escape, and then took advantage of our unpreparedness to kill a horse pistol.

Gong Ren said: No matter what the intentions of the Witch King, we won this battle.
