"But there is a section, I remember the last time I told you, this door has always been united and united with the outside world, but there is no way to fight inside the door, so as to stimulate everyone's self-motivation. Since there is a desire to win between the various peaks and halls, it is inevitable that there will be friction, as long as it is controlled to a certain extent, the elders will not interfere, and will even secretly add fuel to the fire. ”

"There are several frictions that have always existed that I would like to remind you of. First, it is inevitable that some of the new disciples will have grievances in the world, although the world is vast, the probability of meeting acquaintances is not high. ”

"The second is that the local disciples will inevitably look down on the disciples from the world, the number of native-born disciples in the Xianzhou and sects is not large, but some of the roots are better, in addition, they are not subject to the sixty-year apprenticeship restriction, they can be recommended and reviewed at any time to enter, and those who have started before this year are counted as disciples of the previous generation. ”

"The third is that the disciples of the Taoist sect boast that they are orthodox and some people will discriminate against lay disciples, and there are also people who disdain the formation of the Fa and refining weapons who major in Xuangong, and in the end it is the battle between the various peaks and halls. ”

"These frictions are not serious, but they are real. Everyone is a brother of the same generation, and it is the first time to meet, so there is no need to rush to fight with each other, and the construction gate is outside the nine main peaks, and there has been no strength to really be short. In the past, we rarely participated in civil and military competitions, and most of them were difficult to win. ”

"But there are three requirements as well. First, we don't take the initiative to cause trouble but are not afraid of things, if someone has to pick up soft persimmons and pinch them, they can't show weakness, but they can't fight first. Second, the nine main peaks are just that, if there is a fight with the stove room and the procurement hall, you better not embarrass the manager. Third, if I still fail with all my strength this time, I will not punish him, and if I can create a fight for our face, the manager will naturally be greatly rewarded. ”

looked at the three of them meaningfully, and Mu Qitian's eyes became eager: "Having said that, the three of you who were assigned to the construction office this time are the smallest number of people in the past, but the general manager has read countless people, and the quality of the three boys is finally a few points stronger than in the past, maybe Lao Zhao in the stove room will be deflated this time." ”

After thinking about it for a while, Mu Qi said suddenly: "I almost forgot, it's not three, you also have a senior brother who just arrived yesterday, and I have already sent someone to call." ”

"Isn't it just the three of us this time?" Yi Liunian asked.

"Originally, it was like this, there are strange things every year, and there are many of them this year. This kid was originally assigned to the second peak, but he said that he had just started to believe in Buddhism before he came, and he didn't want to see all the Taoist priests around him, so he went to the fourth peak. After staying for more than a month, he said that the fourth peak has a lot of kung fu and miscellaneous skills, which is not conducive to cultivation, and the elder in charge sent him to our construction office in a fit of anger, and punished him for being able to attend the Mid-Autumn Festival event and not make a move. It's just that this kid is talented, although he has reached the age of twenty, but he is rated as the first in talent and kung fu for this generation of disciples, it seems that this is the rhythm of my creation. ”

Mu Qiwan rubbed his hands, but said with a bitter face: "Extraordinary people must have extraordinary things, I have talked about this kid, human nature is actually excellent, but the brain lacks roots, people are not only stubborn, this way of thinking is also very abnormal people, people do not understand the world, only know martial arts, and you will know when people come." ”

Speaking of this, Mu Qitian made a face: "I praised you just now and didn't let you be arrogant because you came to the construction place, you have all heard a sentence, genius is created by one percent inspiration and ninety-nine percent sweat, and often inspiration is more important than sweat." ”

In fact, this latter sentence has been proved to be made up by later generations. can be selected into the sect, everyone has more or less inspiration, and the difference in the future is largely reflected in this sweat, I don't have time to urge you every day, grasp it yourself, don't let me hurt Zhongyong in the future. ”

While talking, a person came in from outside the door, thin and tall, with a big head like a bucket, a pair of eyes that were more white and less black, and a look of indifference, giving people the feeling that they were staring at you, but as if their eyes were not focused on you, and there was a small cloth bag hanging under their necks, and they couldn't see what they contained.

Mu Qiwan said: "Let me introduce, this is Zhuge Yun, the three of them are Lin Xianjing, Hua Lanting, and Yi Liunian, and in the future, you will be the four major disciples of my generation, so you should be closer and closer." ”

Zhuge Yunchong nodded at the three of them: "Hello everyone, everyone, morning." ”

The three of them said that it was really different, this first sentence was fine, but now it was almost evening, where was it early. Now each of them salutes.

I only heard Yi Liunian ask curiously: "Senior Brother Zhuge , what is hanging on your chest, herbs?"

Zhuge Yun: "I was very interested in Buddhism before I came, so can't I wear Tieguanyin?"

The three of them were dizzy, and their hearts said that this senior brother really had strange bones, unique thinking, and was different.

Mu Qiwan seemed to be accustomed to it, and said strangely: "Tomorrow, the four of you will participate in the Mid-Autumn Festival activities of the sixty generations of disciples together, take care of each other, don't embarrass me, Zhuge can't make a move, you have to cheer for everyone." ”

Zhuge Yun responded: "Okay, I will, Lord Steward." At the end, he added: "But the beasts always walk alone, and only the cattle and sheep are in herds." ”

The three of them were stunned again and looked at each other.

Mu Qiwei had already understood Zhuge Yun's way of speaking, and came out to make a round: "Comprehend the spirit, comprehend the spirit, Zhuge means that the team is very important, but the cultivation attaches more importance to individual cultivation." ”

Zhuge Yun nodded yes, and then asked: Where are you going tomorrow?"

Hua Lanting suddenly replied with an idea: "From where you come from, go where you go." I saw Zhuge Yun's eyes light up: "What is the place to come from, what is the place to go?"

Hua Lanting replied: "From where you come from, where you go, the Buddha comes in the name of Rulai, comes truthfully, comes truthfully, comes as it comes, comes as it comes, comes and goes freely." ”

Seeing that Zhuge Yun was still going to ask, Mu Qiwan slapped his forehead and hurriedly said: "Okay, okay, go back to fight, a few of you go and discuss tomorrow's response, and the meeting will be dismissed." ”

Zhuge Yun rushed to Hua Lanting's side, and the four of them went to discuss it themselves.

The next day, when it was getting dark, a senior brother led the team to lead the four of them in the direction of the Taoist Palace.

The mountain road winds up, and on the way, everyone sees a man and a horse walking slowly in front of them. After all this time, the four newcomers were able to recognize the horse as a bantam, not fast but with great stamina, and it was a popular breed that ordinary disciples often used to travel. Immediately alone, from the back can only be seen to be a Taoist priest.

The five people crossed the man, looked back, and saw that it was an old Taoist, although the Taoist robe on his body was clean, there were a few patches on it, the old Taoist had a scruffy beard on his face, his eyes were half-open and half-closed, leisurely, and he didn't pay attention to everyone.

A few people were about to continue walking, suddenly heard the sound of people behind them from far and near, stopped to look back, but saw more than a dozen people running up the mountain, one in the middle riding a tall horse, and the rest of the people ran to follow. The horse was very fast, with a single horn on its head, called a unicorn, but it was a step higher than the bantam horse.

The man on horseback thought that the man was in the way, and shouted with a whip: "Get out of the way, good dogs don't get in the way." As he spoke, he rushed to the horse, and the people behind him immediately roared past, and the old road and the bantam horse staggered from side to side.

Hua Lanting and his entourage frowned secretly, but they didn't want to cause trouble and avoided the side of the mountain road, and the group of people rushed by. But I saw one of them suddenly stop, turned around to look at Lin Xian, and said: "Who is my Dao, isn't this the three young men of the Lin family? It seems that you and I have a good fate, and it makes people very happy." ”

Lin Xian frowned when he saw this person, and said with a smile: "It's really a coincidence, I didn't expect He Shizi to be here, Ben Shao is also very happy, and when will you pay back the three thousand taels of gold you owe me?"

The man known as He Shizi was round and short, and his face turned dark and said: "Lin Xianjing, don't be too rampant, this is the Holy Land of Xiuzhen, and you don't need to bring in any worldly things like money and money." ”

The two said a few words, and He Shizi saw that the person riding the horse at the head was impatient, so he said a haha and left with the group of people after a while.

Lin Xian was shocked and then explained a few words. It turned out that the man's name was He Zhuo, and he was the fifth son of the protector of the Great Qi Dynasty. The Dayuan Dynasty and the Daqi Dynasty border, although there is no major war between the two countries, but the skirmishes on the border have been continuous, even with the two countries Although there are contacts between the two families, there is no harmony, Lin He and the two as juniors, during which there have been several open or dark battles, He Zhuo rarely wins, so there is a bit of gunpowder smell when they meet.

Yi Liunian asked: "What is this person's ability?" Lin Xian was shocked and said: "It's not all a gentleman's disciple, he can fight with Ben Shao for a few rounds, and he has two brushes for his literary and martial arts, otherwise he wouldn't have been selected for the entry." I don't have a deep hatred for the two of us, he just keeps not being convinced by me, so I don't care. Speaking of which, I've met an acquaintance, and I wonder if there will be other surprises. Also, senior brother, who is that horseback rider?"

The senior brother who led the team replied: "That's Wang Zongxi, a son of a Xiuzhen family in the sect, and his family has some power, so he has always been rampant among the junior disciples, and he is a master who bullies the weak and fears the hard, and I heard that he has entered the third peak." The sect has always advocated respecting the teacher, and I guess he saw the Taoist master riding a bantam horse from behind, thinking that he was an ordinary nameless disciple, otherwise he would not be so arrogant and rude. ”

Everyone was talking, but the Taoist chief behind him rode up on horseback. Hua Lanting clasped his fists and saluted, "Senior, they didn't collide with you, did they?"

Lao Dao opened his eyes and swept everyone, the light in his eyes flashed, and said with a smile: "It's okay, it's okay, Lao Dao, I'm very tough." A few of you are new disciples, right, you should go to the school palace to participate in the activities, right? I see that you know etiquette very well, it's better to do this, I heard that there will be a few competitions in the school palace activities, you help the old Taoist to teach those boys just now, I will have a meeting gift. ”

Yi Liunian said strangely: "Daoist, you are also going to participate in the event?"

Lao Dao said: "Each peak, each hall and each generation of disciples has their own Mid-Autumn Festival activities, and the old guys are not interested in getting involved in the affairs of the new disciples, but I am a person from the Academy Palace, and no one cares about going in to see it, how about it, my proposal is good?"

Lin Xian was shocked and worried about Zhou Xiang, and said: "We are going to participate in the competition, but it is difficult to say that it must be better than those people, and it may not be able to vent for you." ”

Lao Dao smiled: "It's okay, it's okay, the event will be lively, as long as you do your best, as an elder, I won't let you suffer." ”

Seeing that Lao Dao said this, several teenagers also agreed. The group gradually walked along the road to the Taoist Palace.
