Master, this word is a realm that every metaphysical person like me who is here in this line of art ultimately aspires to reach. Because it is no longer a single word that denotes identity, but a high level of recognition for the person. After following the master for so many years, I have seen many talented people around me, but everyone humbly says that they are just ordinary crafts, and they never dare to climb the word "master".

In the past, although I had heard other people call my master "master", I also knew in my heart that it was just a polite gesture from others, and although the master was highly skilled, it seemed that there was still a way to go from the master. Now the state of the master, if you want to go on, it seems that there is no chance, and I also understand the reason why he finally nodded, is that I hope I can personally participate in this matter and temper it, as long as I can succeed in the end, this experience of mine is also an adventure that other masters of the older generation have never encountered.

But in this way, the master was too aggrieved, so I said, I am not interested in being a master, and in terms of my qualifications, I am still 108,000 miles away. I, like you, don't like this Qin Bukong, if you don't want to, Master, don't force it for me, I'm not uncommon to him at all. But the master said, you should help the master do this, and in the future, when others spread the rumors, they are also winning glory for the sect. Master sighed and said, our sect is small, there are few people, just when we were about to flourish, we encountered war, and finally the war ended, and we began to suppress us again, so Master is in his lifetime, I am afraid that there is no way to carry forward our sect, and Master is just such an apprentice as you, if you don't do it, who can do it, can you say that after the master gets better, you will accept an apprentice? Master doesn't have the energy to teach his disciples.

Master has never talked so seriously about his old age in front of me, even though we both understand that this is a fact. But Master's sigh tells me how reluctant he is to do this. It is not difficult to see that even if the master disagrees with Qin Bukong's character, he is also very yearning for the secret under the tunnel. Probably people who have studied metaphysics to a certain extent, just like people who study martial arts, know something new and unknown to themselves, and they will always be uncontrollable to want to see what is going on.

Master grabbed my hand and said, San'er, you promise Master to let this Qin Bukong know why I am proud of you. After listening to Master's words, a sense of mission sprung up in my heart, and over the years, Master has been used to giggling with me, and this is the first time that he has said something that he is proud of me, which touched me very much, and my heart was very warm.

So I didn't say yes to Master right away, but said I'd wait until he got better.

Master's postoperative recovery went very smoothly, and on the seventh day, Master removed the stitches. Before that, Master was able to get out of bed and move, and although his body was still not as good as before, he was still much more energetic than when I first came to the hospital to see him. During this period, Qin Bukong went back to his house several times, one time to repair the door that was kicked by me, and the other few times, under the master's instructions, to help send the things of the master and me to his house one after another. Although I was still a little reluctant in my heart, since Master didn't say anything, it was inconvenient for me to say more.

About 10 days later, Master was discharged from the hospital, and we went to the place where Master rented a house, thanked the neighbors again and again, and told them that they would come back often when they were free in the future, and then we stayed in Qin Bukong's house. For the first few days, I didn't talk to him much, and he spent most of his time under the tunnel, except for helping Master make medicine and light incense every day, but I never followed him any further. Because every time I walked to the entrance of the tunnel, Ganmu stopped at the door with a fierce face, as if it was a shame that I had suddenly intruded, so this thing was never allowed to happen again.

I lived like this for more than half a month, and I had nothing to do every day. Finally, after eating dinner that night, the master suddenly opened his mouth and said to Qin Bukong, Senior Qin, you also know that my apprentice is a little impulsive, but his nature is not bad. There were some misunderstandings between the two of us before, and it didn't help if we didn't make it clear. Now that my body has become like this, I am afraid that I will not be able to complete what I promised you at the beginning, so Lin has a reluctant request, and I hope that Senior Qin will consider it at his discretion.

After speaking, the master stood up with his hands on the table, and then bowed to Qin Bukong. If you count it according to the seniority, Qin Bukong should be the master of the same generation as my master, so my master has to call him a senior. Seeing the master stand up, I also put down the dishes and chopsticks and stood up, but I didn't say anything, I didn't like this Qin Bukong very much, I really didn't need to be so polite to him, but I secretly blamed the master in my heart, why did I make myself so humble when I talked to such a person.

After Qin Bukong heard this, he also stopped eating in his hand and put down the dishes and chopsticks, but he didn't stand up, but just put his hands on his thighs, looked at my master and said, Master Lin, I know everything you want to say, it's nothing more than wanting this kid to follow me, open his eyes, gain a long insight, and learn something from me by the way, right?

I was taken aback, what does this mean? Let me follow and open my eyes This is something that Master mentioned earlier, I don't think it's a big deal, but why did you suddenly say let me learn things from Qin Bukong? Does this mean that I want to worship two masters at the same time? So I hurriedly said to Master in a hurry, "What do you mean by this?" Why should I learn from him, the two factions have nothing in common except for their roots, and I'm not too young, where can I have the energy to start over?

The master waved his hand at me, meaning to let me not intervene, but I didn't listen this time, and said anxiously, we are learning orthodox Taoist crafts, these folk Dharma and witchcraft, even if I have great ability, I can't look down on it, I don't learn! I'd rather leave after eating than learn from this man!

As soon as I got angry, I threw myself on the bench. Qin Bukong sneered and said, little fart, why do you have to leave after eating? It's not fun to eat a gambling meal, let's go now, you should teach you what I want to do, your little fart ability, just find a little hairy child in Miao Village, you can play with!

Although I know that this is a big sentence, although my skills are limited, but among the masters of the same generation and age, I can be regarded as a leader, and I am an outstanding category. There are not many people who can survive in this world completely by craftsmanship, and I am among them, and I am also considered to be top-notch. I believe that there are indeed many masters in Miao Village, but they are not as powerful as Qin Bukong said. So I got angry, stretched out my hand and slapped the table hard, the dishes and chopsticks shook because of the action of slapping the table, I said loudly, let's go, you are not a good place here, there is no place to, who still rarely lives here with you?

With that, I stood up and went to pack my things. Qin Bukong looked at it coldly from the side, with a smile on his face. At this time, the master was also angry, and he shouted at me, "Rabbit cub!" No big, no small! Did you talk to your seniors like that? Apologize for admitting my mistake! I was also sideways, so I retorted loudly, what's wrong with talking like this, you don't know who this guy is, what are you begging him to do, isn't he going to dig a hole? Even snakes dig holes, no wonder this guy keeps a snake. Master, you are really, don't say that my tone is not good, it is really annoying, I will break one more of his teeth!

was originally a very provocative remark, but he didn't know why, instead of angering Qin Bukong, it made him laugh. I was annoyed and asked aloud, what are you laughing at! But after asking this sentence, I inadvertently saw Master's expression. It was an expression that I couldn't put into words, his eyes were full of unbearability, but he was very angry, and at the same time angry, there was even a burst of tears that he could not do anything about it. For so many years, I hadn't seen Master cry, and although he didn't cry at the moment, that expression made me extremely uncomfortable.

So I stopped talking and sat back down at the table. With his hands clenched into fists, he puffed his head and stared down at the meal in front of him. At this time, a pair of chopsticks with a piece of green vegetables appeared in front of me, it was Qin Bukong. He put the greens in my bowl, and then said with a smile, "Little baby, listen to your master." You can follow me to explore the formations in the tunnels, but you don't have to follow me to learn things. If you want to learn, I'll teach you again, if you don't want to learn, that's it.

Qin Bukong took back the chopsticks, and then while eating by himself, he said, since ancient times, apprentices and apprentices have paid attention to fate and recognized each other. There has never been only apprentices who want to learn the principles that the master does not teach, and I have never seen the strange thing that the master wants to teach the apprentice not to learn. Although I, Qin, rarely follow everyone in the industry, I still understand this truth. You have a temper and are stubborn enough, I like this, if you don't have extraordinary skills, you will meet a few powerful people in the future, the more stubborn you are, the faster you will die.

When he finished shaving his meal, he filled himself a bowl of soup. After snoring and drinking a few sips, he wiped his mouth and continued, I spend most of my time in the tunnel except for eating and sleeping every day, although the cleaning of the gossip array is cumbersome, but it is not a difficult thing, if you want to come, come by yourself, the ghost of the death door has made you suffer a big loss, fortunately, the formation gate has been broken, and the rest can be cracked one by one, you are interested, just come over at any time.

Then he got up and walked towards the back room, and it seemed that he was going to go into the tunnel again to continue his business, but when he reached the door, he suddenly turned around and pointed at me and said, "But little baby, if you dare to yell at me again next time, I promise to send you to Hades!"

This sentence, the tone was cold, and then he finished speaking and left.
