"Whew!"

The colorful giant tiger fell to the ground with a bang, and its two big paws held its head and whimpered.

The little boy looked back dumbfounded, and he ...... He...... What did he see? What ......did he see? That...... The terrible big worm was actually beaten to tears by the sister who boiled the water, and the little boy swallowed his saliva.

Shi Ji saw the little stammering look at her, put down the fist that wanted to fight the evil tiger again, and smiled back, but the little stammered and shuddered, and the smile that Shi Ji thought was amiable froze on his face.

The boy turned around and lowered his voice and said to the old man, "...... first Mr...... I...... I...... I know...... Mr...... For...... Why...... Can't...... Drink...... Drink water...... She...... She...... She's better than ...... Big Bug ...... Bad. ”

The old man laughed, and also lowered his voice and said to the little boy: "It's all ...... What is said is that women are fiercer than tigers, and they should be far away, far away. ”

Shi Ji heard the words of the two people in front of him biting his ears, and he was angry, there was a reason why she hit the tiger, this stupid thing actually rubbed her with its stinky mouth with drooling, if it weren't for the old man's face, it would have a tiger's life.

"Sir, big bug...... It's so pitiful!" the boy secretly glanced back a few more times.

The old man smiled and nodded, although pitiful, but not without cause, all caused by its greed, he read this tiger for him to be the wind for a night, he had told it before, let it return to the mountain quickly, the tiger lives in the deep mountains for the reason, but it is greedy for that cup of good water, how can it drink the innate things?

......

"Sir...... You sit ...... I...... I took it. ”

A beautiful young man with his hair in a bun led an old cow and walked back happily.

The old man asked lightly, "Where did you come from?"

The young man scratched his head and said with some embarrassment: "First ...... Sir, all ...... All borrowed, sir...... Age...... It's big, it's ...... on the road Too...... Hard ......"

The old man looked at the young man's sincere eyes and sighed in his heart, how many immortal birds and beasts in the world want to be his foot strength, he is unwilling to accept it, he doesn't like this kind of thing that changes his life, but today it is difficult to refuse.

The old man said helplessly: "Since it was borrowed, don't forget to return it." ”

The boy nodded heavily, "Sir...... Rest assured, it won't ...... Forget...... All...... Certain...... On one's mind. ”

The young man helped the old man to the cow, and he led him contentedly in front, and the gentleman finally didn't have to walk.

Shi Ji followed the old man and the young man a hundred meters away, not a single step overstep, people know that the old man said to the little stammer, "When far away, far away...... is not said to her.

She doesn't seem to have done anything all these years, but she seems to have done a lot, she will help the little stammerer pick fruit, she will help him mend his clothes, help him weave straw sandals, help him find water......

She watched the little stammerer grow from seven to eleven years old, from an ignorant boy to a wise young man, she followed the old man all the way from east to west, over mountains and mountains, across rivers and rivers, and walked through hundreds of human races.

Whenever they went to a tribe, the old man would stop to ask about the affairs of the human race, laugh and chat with the tribal children, discuss the climate and season with the tribal wise, talk with the tribal leader about hunting and gathering, autumn harvest and winter storage, and discuss personnel and reproduction with the elders......

Along the way, the deeds of the old man gradually spread in the human tribe, his way and virtue are convincing, his wisdom makes people look up to the mountains, his approachability and humility are loved by others, he is a wise elder, and the hundred tribes of the human race call him 'Lao Tzu'.

These two words were not uttered by the old man himself, the old man never said his own business, and whenever someone asked, he always smiled and did not answer. He had fully integrated into the Terrans and had become an ordinary Terran elder.

They left the tribe of beasts, and went all the way west, thirty miles, and a big river blocked the way, and the young man looked at the rolling torrent and frowned.

"Du, why are you upset?" the old man asked.

The young man pointed to the surging flood and said, "Sir, this water ...... Sinister...... How is it...... Can you cross?"

Lao Tzu said with a smile: "There is no good or evil in water, only water virtue." ”

The young man wondered, "What is the virtue of water?"

Lao Tzu said: "The good is like water, the water is good for all things without fighting, and the evil of all people is good, so it is more than the Tao, which is the virtue of humility; The world is weaker than water, and the strong can win, with its easy. The weak is better than the strong, the soft is better than the strong, the world knows everything, and nothing can be done......"

The young man loosened the reins of the morning glory and sat down, he sat on the edge of the great river, looked at the rolling flood and pondered the water virtues that Mr. had described, and he felt that what he had learned in his heart had merged into a great river like a thousand streams returning to his ancestors.

His breath has changed, from real to virtual, and from virtual to real, he changes back and forth between virtual and real, and his artistic conception is unpredictable and mysterious.

Lao Tzu twisted his beard and smiled, four years of humility, today should be able to hold the water of this river, with this river water virtue should be able to build the supreme foundation.

Shi Ji's eyes stared at the boy without blinking, at this moment, her heart was indescribably excited, four years without cultivating a law, a six or seven-year-old child leaning on two legs is four years, spring, summer, autumn and winter, cold and summer sixteen seasons, this road is too difficult for a child, not to mention anything else, just straw sandals he wore out sixty-three pairs, it should be done.

She looked at it all night, the sky was slightly bright, she got up to wash, prepare the tea set, today is the first day of the new year, every month on the first day of the new year she will make tea, as always, in front of the road to serve tea to the old man, the old man does not drink is one thing, she boils or not is another thing, she has been serving tea for forty-eight months in a row, once she has not forgotten, but he has not drunk once.

They each do their own thing, she serves her tea, he goes his way, no one interferes with anyone, no one waveres.

"Whew......"

The river roared, the flood turned into a dragon, the young man opened his eyes and got up, he took a step forward, stood on the dragon's head, the water dragon groaned, the dragon flew for nine days, the young man's long hair fluttered straight into the green clouds, he shouted excitedly: "Ah...... Mr...... Sister Shi Ji ...... I...... I...... Will fly...... Will fly......"

Lao Tzu and Shi Ji stood by the river and looked up at the young man soaring into the sky, they were both excited and proud at this moment, the child would fly.

Shi Ji wiped away the tears that she had unconsciously shed with a handkerchief, she took out three pieces of immortal tea this time, today is a day worth celebrating, her little stammering brother will fly.

The young man flew back and forth on the dragon many times before falling back to the ground, and the young man stood on the bank of the river and watched the water dragon enter the river and roll away into a torrent, he still asked in disbelief: "Sir...... Mr...... Dream...... Dream?"

The old man smiled and said to the young man, "Du, you have entered the Tao." ”

"Initiation...... Mr...... You...... You...... You mean...... I...... Initiated. ”

Lao Tzu nodded and said, "Du, today is the day you enter the Tao, and Mr. intends to officially accept you as an apprentice, are you willing?"

The young man's eyes were red, and he knelt on the ground with a 'plop', and kowtowed three times in a row: "Brother...... Disciple...... All...... Meet...... Teacher ......"

"Please...... Please...... Teacher...... Tea ......"

The young man comprehended, took a bowl of fragrant tea from Shi Ji's hand and held it above his head.

Lao Tzu took the fragrant tea from the young man's hand and drank it with a mouthful of words, which showed that he was happy in his heart, and Lao Tzu continued: "Du, your master ancestor is the teacher of Hongjun Dao, silently recite your master ancestor's Taoist name, and bow to your ancestor." ”

"Yes. The boy kowtowed.

Lao Tzu said to Shi Ji: "Give you another cup of tea." ”

"Oh. Shi Ji hurriedly handed the boy a bowl of tea.

Lao Tzu looked at the sky and said movingly: "Teacher, the disciple also has a disciple, the disciple's disciple is also your disciple, and your disciple and grandson will kowtow to you for tea." ”

The boy knelt on the ground, holding the tea in both hands, and did not move for a long time.

Lao Tzu said sadly: "Lying on the nine clouds, the futon is true." Outside the heaven and earth, I should be in charge of the sect. Pangu gives birth to Tai Chi, two instruments and four elephants. One is passed on to three friends, and the two teachings are divided into two teachings. The leader of the Xuanmen capital, one gas Hongjun...... Teacher, whether you can hear it or not, the disciple must tell you that this child will be the third generation of my Xuanmen to take charge, the Taoist name Xuandu, and the teacher should say 'the leader of the Xuanmen'. ”

The cup of tea in Xuandu's hand disappeared, and a purple qi fell from the sky and poured into Xuandu's body.

Lao Tzu cried with joy: "Xuandu...... Your master has recognized you, ...... Thank you for your ancestor Hongen. ”

"Apprentice Sun Xuandu thanks to Master Hongen. Young Xuandu's eyes suddenly widened: "Master...... Master, I ...... I don't stutter anymore. ”

Lao Tzu said with infinite emotion: "No one is perfect, your defects are in the tongue, natural, no one can change, now it has been completed by your ancestors, you will be the first perfect." ”
