Chapter 16: Apprenticeship
"Isn't it just to accept an apprentice?" An Xinyi raised her eyebrows, she was most afraid that this old man would resist accepting apprentices. She felt that only her grandfather had the ability to train a master in a very short period of time.
"Accepting apprentices is not as easy as you think. An Ziyu raised his head slightly, and said: "You must know that if you are a teacher for one day and a father for life, if grandpa accepts someone as an apprentice, it is equivalent to an extra burden on his shoulders, if he does not teach him some stunts, so that he can have the ability to survive in and out of the rivers and lakes in the future, that is the biggest failure as a generation of grandmasters." ”
And. As soon as An Ziyu's short two-word voice came out, Anxin's ears moved slightly, and the next words were the point, she should listen attentively, and then think about how to convince this old man.
An Ziyu continued: "The young man you want to bring to your grandfather is already eighteen years old, and he has no sect or sect before, and he has no martial arts foundation. When a person reaches the age of eighteen, in terms of the age of martial arts, it can be regarded as an advanced age. At this time, if you want to practice martial arts, you must work hard for ten years more than ordinary people, unless this person is a genius who practices martial arts. But even if he is a genius who practices martial arts, like him, who is eager for revenge, and who gives his grandfather a one-year time limit, if nothing else, he will definitely not concentrate when practicing martial arts, and grandpa thinks that he is an old bone, and he can't teach a master within a year. ”
An Ziyu sighed lightly twice, these two times were a pity from the bottom of her heart: "What happened to this young man you said, grandpa is also very sad. But he was bent on revenge, and a year later he arrived in Saibei, and there were no eyes on the battlefield, and those brothers and sisters of yours still knew how to protect themselves, and he was such a person who was carried away by hatred, but he only knew how to die. When the time comes, grandpa white-haired people send black-haired people, and they can't even think about it. ”
Hearing this, a warm current suddenly surged into his heart, and he thought: This old man's true thoughts turned out to be here.
An Anyi instantly changed his attitude, turned around and hugged An Ziyu's arm and began to be coquettish again: "Grandpa, my good grandfather." Based on your puzzle above, your granddaughter can help you. As for you, you should accumulate yin virtue, this year is very variable, and I don't want him to leave. Even if he still leaves by then, he will have a good time to take care of his brothers and sisters. What's more, if you don't accept him as an apprentice now, if he goes to Saibei by himself, the road will be difficult and dangerous, and he may die tragically in the middle of the road. Wouldn't it be a shame then?"
"Hmm......" An Ziyu was silent for a while after hearing this, and then said, "It seems to be right." ”
"Hey, hey. An Anyi let go of his hand, took two steps back, stood still and arched his hand: "The granddaughter respectfully asks grandpa to wait here, so I will immediately go down the mountain and ask this young man to go up the mountain to apprentice!"
After Anxin finished speaking, he slipped back and ran away.
In vain, An Ziyu awkwardly stretched out a right hand and stopped in mid-air, and said in a low voice: "Run slower, don't fall." ”
......
All the way up the mountain, it was smooth. Anxin was surprised to find that Lin Daqi's leg strength and endurance were still quite good, although he didn't know how to work lightly, but it was already very good to walk up Zhuangyuan Mountain without stopping with his feet, and the time it took was much less than she expected.
The checkpoints along the mountain road were all sent away when he went up the mountain with peace of mind before, so he could only see a few disciples of the Divine Sword Sect scattered on the mountain road, and he greeted him politely one by one, all of which made Lin Daqi feel that the Divine Sword Gate was very warm.
When he reached the eight steps in front of the mountain gate, Anxin pulled Lin Daqi to stop. Forget it, there is the mountain gate, in the center of the gate, a royal gold plaque, written with the three words of the sword gate, is really conspicuous. In front of the gate, an old man with a childish face stood there smiling solemnly, and a row of scattered teeth in his mouth was accidentally exposed.
Only An Ziyu himself knew that this smile was extremely unnatural, because the matter of accepting apprentices was indeed very stressful for him.
Anxin leaned close to Lin Daqi's ear and whispered, "This is the famous Divine Sword Sect head An Ziyu." ”
"What?" Lin Daqi couldn't hide his surprise for a while, but he didn't expect An Ziyu to be eighty years old, and he didn't have the old state of Longzhong that he imagined.
Looking at An Ziyu's appearance again, he still feels like an old child.
"Hmm...... Hum....... An Ziyu saw Lin Daqi looking at him, so he closed his mouth, the expression on his face was very rich, a little majestic for a while, and a gentle smile just now, he hadn't accepted apprentices in person for a long time, and he really didn't know how to face strange young people.
......
"Master, this is the young man that the disciple wants to bring to you. An Anxin was respectful and respectful, and reported in front of An Ziyu in style, An Ziyu also cooperated with this granddaughter to set up a score, nodded slightly, and said: "Since you are here, let's make an introduction." ”
An Ziyu stopped saying and looked at Lin Daqi, who was at a loss for a while, pointing at himself with a puzzled face.
"Don't hurry up yet. With his head lowered, Anxin reminded Lin Daqi with a slight side bend: "Introduce yourself!"
"Oh. Lin Daqi really didn't expect that this process would be like this, so he straightened up, cleared his throat and said: "If you go back to the head of the house, your name is Lin Daqi, a Lingnan person, who has lived with his grandfather since he was a child, and before going up the mountain, he was a storyteller. ”
"Storyteller?" An Ziyu was interested, which was not mentioned in the reassuring flying letter.
So An Ziyu asked: "Since you are a storyteller, then you are familiar with the entire Jianghu martial arts, right?"
Lin Daqi said without thinking: "I know some names, some stories. ”
"Hmm......" An Ziyu asked again, "Do you know me?"
Lin Daqi immediately reacted: "The name of the head of An, like thunder!" asked him to compliment An Ziyu for ranking second in the martial arts of the rivers and lakes, Lin Daqi really couldn't say anything.
However, this sentence also made An Ziyu more satisfied, only to see An Ziyu nodded with satisfaction, and asked again: "You really haven't learned any martial arts before?"
"Not yet. Lin Daqi replied truthfully.
"Hmm......" An Ziyu was silent for a long time, and sighed in his heart. But the person has already come, and his own granddaughter is watching again, and there is no way out.
This disciple, he had to accept it.
If you accept it, your conscience can get by.
An Ziyu thought to herself: I really want to thank you, my good granddaughter. Sure enough, it didn't hurt in vain, and I did this kind of willful thing.
So An Ziyu gave himself a round field and said: "I see that you are in good health, you have climbed the mountain road for so long, and you are not panting, so you can see that you are a good seedling." In this way, I will take you for the time being. After you enter the mountain gate, first go find the Honggu collar quilt and the clothes to be worn in the door in the future, and ask her to arrange a room for you. ”
After speaking, An Ziyu was afraid that he would lose too much talk, so he turned around and left.
Such a concise action will leave Lin Daqi with some mystery.
It went so well?
Lin Daqi really didn't expect that going to the Divine Sword Sect, the first sect of martial arts in the north, would be so smooth.
