(Thanks to the Dragon League's thousand-dollar reward, I suddenly remembered the line from "Shaolin Football", and I came back...... ）

The next day, when Zhao Lingtai went to fetch water, he found that Anu was already waiting there. Seeing him, Anu didn't speak, just stared at him.

Zhao Lingtai didn't speak, just doing his own thing.

On the third day, the same scene was staged, and the atmosphere was quite eerie, but fortunately no one noticed.

On the fourth day, when Zhao Lingtai picked up the bucket to leave, Anu suddenly spoke: "I need an apprentice, would you like to help me?"

Zhao Lingtai stopped and looked over: "But I don't like to strike iron, and I don't like to cast swords, when I am an apprentice, I will only watch from the side." ”

"Yes. ”

Anu was very straightforward.

Zhao Lingtai asked, "Why?"

"As I said, you're like a human being. ”

"That's all?"

Anu suddenly smiled: "Likeness is enough." ”

Zhao Lingtai also smiled: "Okay, I promise." ”

In this way, Lao Li Zhao Awang became an apprentice in the blacksmith shop.

This incident made the laborers excited for a while, and they were happy for Zhao Lingtai, feeling that he had entered the portal of Lingtai. Everyone didn't know Anu's identity and status in the Lingtai, but those who could open an iron shop at the outer gate were members of the Sword Sect.

And the outer gate of the Sword Sect was in an uproar about this matter, and there were many discussions.

In Lingtai, Anu is an out-and-out eccentric, independent and special, and rarely talks to people. He couldn't cultivate the Tao, nor did he learn swords, and for decades, he didn't know how much heavy iron and gold he wasted, so that the disciples couldn't understand it, and it was quite slanderous. Helplessly, Anu's identity is detached, he is the patriarch of the sword faction, and he is protected by the head of the sect and others, and when the disciples see it, they can only obediently call "uncle".

Anu is alone, he has always been alone, and now, he actually accepted a laborer as an apprentice, which is really strange.

Stranger things are yet to come.

Zhao Lingtai did what he said, and after arriving at the iron shop, he neither struck iron, nor cast swords, and didn't even do the work of carrying water, but made a bamboo chair and lay down on it, either basking in the sun or closing his eyes to recuperate.

But Anu didn't care and let himself go.

It seems that Zhao Lingtai looks like a master, and Anu is an apprentice!

Strange behavior is always full of absurdity.

Jingle Bell!

The hammer rises and falls with a crisp sound.

Zhao Lingtai, who was lying on a bamboo chair, asked, "I heard those disciples call you 'Senior Uncle', so why did you come here to strike iron?"

"I came out on my own. ”

Anu replied angrily.

Hearing this, Zhao Lingtai bowed slightly, felt a little happy, and asked, "Why? Isn't it better to live in the mountains?"

"It's not good, it's stuffy. ”

Again, the simple answer.

Zhao Lingtai looked at the ethereal clouds and mist, and said slowly: "If you are high above, you will be isolated from the world. It's rare that you have the heart and are willing to go down. ”

When it rang, the hammer in Anu's hand lost its proportion, smashed down heavily, and the sparks splashed, and he looked back and stared at Zhao Lingtai deadly.

Zhao Lingtai said unconsciously: "But tomorrow, I want to go up the mountain." ”

The next day, after breakfast, Zhao Lingtai began to go up the mountain. He was an apprentice of the iron shop, but he was not a disciple of Anu, not even a registered disciple, and it stands to reason that he was not qualified to go up the mountain.

When I arrived at the mountain pass, I was stopped by two disciples who were in charge of guarding.

Zhao Lingtai didn't talk nonsense, and directly showed a wooden waist card.

The brand is a palm-wide, oval, about six inches long, the color is bamboo yellow, the back depicts the unique logo of the Lingtai Sword School, and the front is engraved with a big "four" character like a dragon flying and a phoenix.

This is Anu's waist card, which represents identity, and was actually given to Zhao Lingtai.

The two guardian disciples were taken aback, looking at each other, unable to be the master. One of them stayed, and the other ran up the mountain to pray.

Not long after, it was the peak master Jiang Shanghan who came down!

Jiang Shanghan was not tall, very strong, with a short beard, he came to Zhao Lingtai, glanced at the token, and then his eyes fell on Zhao Lingtai, and his eyes burst with purple light - this is a spiritual eye power that can only be possessed by cultivating to the Yuan Qi level, and it is much higher than the magic eye ability.

Gaze, from head to toe.

This young man is really not ordinary, because he has opened his mind, and to a certain extent, he has embarked on the path of cultivation.

Root bones, seems good.

But that's about it.

Under the whole world, there are thousands of people, and there are actually many people who have a foundation for cultivation. It's just that the way to cultivate the path, the further you go, the more difficult it becomes. In the normal realm division, only when you have cultivated to the Xuan Realm can you really get started.

This is also one of the criteria for becoming an inner disciple of the Lingtai Sword Sect.

"Just because he can open his mind, the fourth child will accept him as an apprentice?"

Jiang Shanghan thought in his heart, but shook his head again, and then opened his mouth and instructed the two guardian disciples: "Let this little brother go up the mountain." ”

Zhao Lingtai grinned: "Thank you." ”

As he spoke, he walked up the trail.

The two guardian disciples glanced at each other, and they both understood the meaning in their eyes: This apprentice of Uncle Anu is really big, doesn't he know that standing here is the dignified Zuo Lingfeng Peak Master, known as "One Sword Crossing the River and Ten Thousand Waters Cold" Jiang Shanghan?

It's no wonder, after all, Jiang Shanghan didn't reveal his identity. And Zhao Lingtai's ignorant people are fearless, and their behavior is normal.

Jiang Shanghan didn't care about this, he felt that he had to talk to Anu about it.

"You took an apprentice?"

When I arrived at the iron shop, Jiang Shanghan went straight to the point.

"Yes. ”

Anu wielded the hammer and did not look up.

"If you like that young man, why don't you just take him as a disciple?"

Anu still buried his head in the hammering: "I have nothing to teach him, and I am not qualified to be his master." ”

Jiang Shanghan thought he was feeling sorry for himself, and sighed: "If you open your mouth, I think that whether it is me or the boss, I will agree to accept him as an entry." ”

"There's no need, if he wants to get started, he'll do it on his own. ”

Jiang Shanghan hesitated for a moment: "But you gave him your waist card." ”

No matter what sect, the waist card is very important, it represents the identity of the holder, so you should always carry it on your body, if you lose it, you have to report it immediately, and you can't easily hand it over to others.

These are all door rules.

Anu stopped the hammer and turned his head sideways: "So, you're here to ask for sin?"

Jiang Shanghan asked rhetorically: "What is the crime?"

The Sword Sect also has a rule that when an elder or above sends someone to do something, he can let the person bring his own waist card to show his identity, but generally there are many people with an oracle.

Anu was not an elder and did not have any position in the Sword Sect, but he had a special status, but he was more detached than the nine elders.

Anu snorted: "Do you suspect that he is a nail sent by a foreign enemy?" Hmph, I don't believe you haven't seen him. ”

Jiang Shanghan nodded: "I've seen it, it's very clean, and the roots and bones are okay." ”

Anu turned around, his eyes burning: "That's what you see?"

Jiang Shanghan was a little puzzled: "What do you think there is?"

Jingle Bell!

Anu swung the hammer again: "It's good to be clean...... Third, if you still recognize me as the fourth, in the future, that young man will walk in the sect, as long as he doesn't violate the rules of the sect, let him do it. He should also be a weirdo. ”

Jiang Shanghan couldn't help but pout: Does this need to be said? Not a weirdo, how can you meet your eyes and accept you as an apprentice?
