Chapter 4 Three Questions for Apprenticeship

"Apprenticeship, follow me, ah...... I really don't know how to answer when you suddenly say this, I didn't expect that the aura of the high-ranking people who had been hidden for many years would be seen through by a young man like you......"

The Taoist smiled a little disapprehantly, and his words were a little boundless, but his eyes were very clear.

This made Wang Sheng inevitably a little apprehensive.

Everything is not done quickly, and Wang Sheng did not dare to kneel down and kowtow directly to forcibly apprentice here, so he could only look back with his most sincere eyes when this Taoist chief looked at him.

The tall and thin Taoist priest staggered his gaze and asked with a smile: "If you want to learn martial arts, there is a gym on this mountain that teaches martial arts." ”

Wang Sheng said earnestly: "Dao Chief, I came to Wudang Mountain to seek immortals, to learn from the master, to follow the master to practice, as soon as I saw the Taoist, I knew that I had found it." ”

The tall and thin Taoist priest frowned, "If you say that it is more reliable to learn martial arts, you are cultivating immortals and cultivating the Tao when you open and close your mouth...... Little layman, have you really seen anyone know what kind of Taoism?"

Wang Sheng had already thought of how to deal with it, and Zhengse said: "The disciple is ignorant, and he has been studying Taoist classics when he was in school before. The disciple felt that the Tao was a kind of spirit, a different understanding of heaven, earth and the universe, and it was also the spiritual sustenance that I wanted to pursue. ”

"Uh......"

The tall and thin Taoist priest sneered for a while, and without much persuasion, he pointed in the direction of Zixia Palace, "There is no Taoist chief over there?"

"Yes, yes," Wang Sheng didn't know what to say for a while, "It's just that I searched all over Wudang Mountain and couldn't find the master I wanted to worship, but I met you here...... As soon as I saw you, I knew that the chief was not an extraordinary person, and I asked the Taoist chief to accept the disciple no matter what. ”

Thousands of clothes are not worn, Wang Sheng also feels a little ashamed.

The Dao Chang smiled dumbly, and slowly stood up from the rattan chair, Wang Sheng saw that this great master, who would be famous in a few years, was more than a head taller than himself at this time.

Well, I won't be fully open until I'm nineteen......

The Taoist priest stood tall, his shoulders drooped, his breath was steady, and although his image was a little sloppy, he had an indescribable demeanor.

Perhaps, this is the real monk.

Even if you have never had the vitality to embark on the real path of cultivation, you have been sharpening yourself for decades, and you can still have a kind of aura that exudes from your bones at this time.

This kind of invisible accumulation, as long as the Heaven and Earth Yuan Qi is infused into itself, it will usher in a very terrifying outburst!

Wang Sheng made up his mind that this master would bow down no matter what......

Listen to this Taoist who sells martial arts cheats and said in a warm voice:

"You young man is interesting, full of Taoism, apprentices are still picky, and what's even more ridiculous is that you also look down on me, the Taoist master?

There are countless people who come to worship on Wudang Mountain every year, as long as you go to the mountain to find a master to name and offer some incense, you can naturally practice on the mountain.

I just put a name on Wudang Mountain, but I don't teach my disciples to recite scriptures and worship God, although there is a disciple, but I don't care much about her on weekdays. ”

Although the Taoist priest said so, he was looking at Wang Sheng's face and felt that this seedling was very good.

It seems that this young man has been robbed, but at this time he has been robbed. Perhaps, it was because of this catastrophe that he was a little resistant to the original living environment, so he thought of becoming a monk. ’

In this way, this Taoist chief actually thinks that Wang Sheng can get started.

Wang Sheng gritted his teeth and said in a low voice: "Dao Chief, the disciple is stupid and doesn't know how to speak. I really want to follow the Taoist master to practice, I am willing to cut my hair to get started, accept the precepts of the Taoist, and become a Taoist priest in the mountains. ”

"Oh?" the chief frowned slightly, "do you know what you're talking about?"

Wang Sheng nodded with a serious face: "Well, the disciple knows." ”

The Taoist chief thought for a while, sat back on the rattan chair, and asked in a tone, "Do you have parents?"

"There were parents, and they came with them, just behind, and the Taoist chief could see them later. ”

Wang Sheng turned his head to look, and his parents had already set off to go down.

After thinking for a moment in his heart, Wang Sheng said again: "My parents are healthy at this time, and the disciples will not have too many worries in their hearts when they practice in the mountains. When they are old, their disciples will also serve with filial piety. ”

"In this way, having your parents with you is considered to be a little sincere...... I thought it was another novel and movie that I watched too much, and the guy who ran away from home really became the Wudangshan Police Station, and also bought the account of Emperor Zhenwu of Sanqing Lu Zu. ”

The Taoist chief complained a few words lightly, and said leisurely: "It's not impossible to apprentice, the Taoist is not good at Taoism, but it's not too reluctant to bring an apprentice." I have three questions, and if you can answer them, then ask your parents to come and talk to me. ”

"Yes!" Wang Sheng almost grinned.

Nowadays, most of the young people who go to these famous mountains are just to learn martial arts, and very few people will become monks at a young age.

Wang Sheng took a deep breath and looked at the Dao Master with burning eyes.

The corners of the Taoist's mouth twitched, "Don't look at me like that, I'm a certified and serious Taoist." ”

Wang Sheng also smiled, quickly restrained his smile, bowed his head and said, "May I ask." ”

"First question, you said that you want to cultivate the Tao, so in your opinion, what is the Tao?"

"Disciple...... The disciple didn't know what the Tao was, so he wanted to follow the Master to understand what the Tao was. ”

Wang Sheng recalled the words that had been prepared before, word by word, and said very seriously: "If the disciple understands at this time, the Tao is nature, order, and the law rule.

Cultivating the Tao is nothing more than cultivating the mind, self-cultivation, Dharma cultivation, and nature cultivation.

As the old saying goes: If you hear the Tao, you can die at night.

If a disciple can follow the Master's enlightenment and enlightenment, and swim in the path, he should also be worthy of this life and worthwhile. ”

After saying it in one breath, Wang Sheng didn't know whether he was talking too much or too little, and waited quite anxiously.

Is this life in vain, not worth the trip?

The chief muttered a few words, rubbed his eyebrows again, and scolded with a smile: "You are my master...... Haha! Where did you get these big truths? And said that I didn't read too many novels!"

Wang Sheng could only scratch his head and smile innocently.

"I'll ask you again, the second question!"

The Taoist chief suddenly snorted softly, changed his previous lazy and tired appearance, and his eyes were like electricity, forcing him to look at Wang Sheng.

Wang Sheng subconsciously wanted to dodge, but his heart trembled slightly, and he calmly looked at the Taoist leader.

He came to learn from his teacher, although some of his motives were not pure, but he never had the slightest evil intention, he was frank and innocent, and he didn't have to be afraid of such a scrutiny.

"Excuse me. ”

"What are the five techniques of the Daomen? ”

Wang Sheng replied calmly: "Mountain, medicine, life, appearance, and divination." The mountain is the Taoist immortal method, and now it refers to the Taoist martial arts, and the doctor is the Taoist doctor, as the saying goes, ten ways and nine doctors are like this......"

Hundreds of words in a row, without pause.

"Yo, it looks like you've really worked hard," the Taoist smiled happily.

Wang Sheng breathed a sigh of relief.

'Unspeakable' is so scary when it comes to being fierce.

He was really afraid that this Taoist master would disagree with him and slap himself to death......

After all, more than ten years later, this immortal Dao giant who has just been soaked in the vitality for more than ten years is already an immortal Dao giant who can break the cloud road with one palm;

"Young man, I really like you a little, tsk," the Taoist touched his chin and chuckled, "Okay, third question." ”

What should I ask?

The Taoist school, the history of Taoism, or the art of Huang Lao, the words of Lao Zhuang, the Tao Te Ching, and the Notes of Lao Tzu?

Wang Sheng had already begun to prepare the answer, and the Taoist Master cleared his throat and calmly asked a question that made Wang Sheng almost explode on the spot......

The Taoist chief smiled and said: "If you want to worship me as a teacher, then if I become your master, I fall into the water with your father and drown, who will you save first?"

The corners of Wang Sheng's mouth twitched constantly, and the Taoist chief looked at Wang Sheng with a smile, a look of 'small sample can't stump you'.

This question seems absurd and funny, but it is actually very tricky, because he can't save anyone first.

Save the master first, that is, to be unfilial to your parents, there is a saying in the Daomen, it is 'unfilial people cannot become adults'.

Wouldn't that just put the master down, shouting that the master is like a parent, but making this kind of choice, it is obviously 'inconsistent heart'......

For a while, cold sweat broke out on Wang Sheng's forehead.

If you follow your heart's answer, you will definitely save your parents.

The Taoist chief urged again: "Who to save first?"

"Save ...... My dad. ”

As soon as he finished speaking, the Dao Chief's smile suddenly retracted, and he sat there staring at Wang Sheng.

Wang Sheng was also a little confused, and hurriedly thought of reasonable words.

Before he could explain, the Dao Master in front of him suddenly stood up, turned the broken bookstall, crossed Wang Sheng, and took two steps forward.

Wang Sheng was a little confused, turned his head and looked, it turned out that his parents had already arrived.

"Two laymen pleased. ”

After the Taoist chief greeted him, he made a gesture as if he was presentable, and said there in a clear voice:

"Poor Dao Qingyanzi, is a monk in this Wudang Mountain, this is my Taoist certificate, two laymen, please see, here is the big seal deducted by the Taoist Association, and you can also find my information in the archives in the mountain......"

Qing Yanzi, sure enough, it's this big guy.

Wang Sheng was stunned for a moment, then grinned, understanding that he had passed the test, and answered the previous three questions.

Listening to Qing Yanzi: "This little layman wants to worship me as a teacher to practice, I, uh-huh, poor Dao saw that he was quite Taoist, and he also had the idea of accepting apprentices." It's just that you have to be a monk and practice, and you must have the consent of your parents, I don't know what your opinion is?"

"Monks?

Listening to his mother's words, Wang Sheng knew that he couldn't worship today.

I had no choice but to find a way to persuade my parents, and then let my parents accompany me to find a mentor with my son.

How to convince it? It's a big deal that Wang Sheng doesn't want to be so faceless in front of his parents, crying, making trouble, and going on a hunger strike!

I finally found such a big tree as Qingyanzi, and I definitely have to tie it tightly!

may have seen that Wang Sheng's face was a little lost, Wang Sheng's father pulled his wife and beckoned Qing Yanzi to the side, "This Taoist leader, let's talk here, talk here." ”

Wang Sheng wanted to follow, but was stopped by his father's gesture, so he could only stand next to the suitcase and wait.

Alas, if you go outside, you must first settle inside, and the ancients did not deceive me.

A few minutes later, Qing Yanzi walked back with a spring breeze on his face, and Wang Sheng's parents also followed behind the Taoist with a smile of 'I can finally rest assured now'.

Wang Sheng almost already knew what the outcome of the trial would be.

"Wang Sheng?" Qing Yanzi called out to him.

Seeing the big guy looking at him with a smile, Wang Sheng hurriedly replied: "Yes, the disciple is here." ”

"Since your parents don't object to your cultivation, then you can stay on the mountain for the time being. Tonight, I will accompany your parents to the hotel under the mountain for another day, and tomorrow morning I will wait for me here. ”

After saying that, he drifted away, and he didn't even accept this broken bookstall.

What the heck?

Wang Sheng glared at his own father, and then looked at his own mother, and the couple suddenly showed a friendly smile.

Dad waved his hand, "Let's go son, go down the mountain and find a hotel to stay for one night!"

"Dad, Mom, what's going on?" Wang Sheng scratched his head for a while, pinched his thigh, and gasped in pain.

"Let's go," the mother walked over and grabbed Wang Sheng's arm, "Why don't you go up the mountain to repair a road, Mom and Dad are ready!"

Listening to this, why is it so unbelievable just a punctuation mark?

There is a conspiracy.

There must be a conspiracy in this!
