Chapter 16: Apprenticeship
The young man kowtowed a few times on the tombless grave, and the tears flowed uncontrollably. Slowly stood up, but his heart was at a loss, only feeling that the world was big, but there was nowhere to go, a place to stay. The feeling of wandering loneliness swelled in my heart for a while.
The girl who stood quietly on the side, seeing the young man's sad and helpless appearance, felt uncomfortable in her heart, and expected that she was also in a situation where she was unaccompanied. couldn't help but secretly tug at the sleeves of the middle-aged man on the side, and his eyes revealed a bit of pleading.
The man still doesn't know his daughter's intentions, this is obviously begging him to accept the child in front of him as a disciple. The Qionghua faction is one of the five major sects of cultivation in the world, and the rules are very strict, and they have been enlightened for more than 60 years, and there are only four disciples under them.
Through the previous short time together, the man can also be said to know Li Canglan's temperament in a subtle way, sincere and fierce, and a good child with filial piety.
The root bone is also excellent, but it is a pity that this dantian is the most important thing on the way to cultivation, and the foundation of ten thousand laws. This child's dantian was destroyed, the sea of qi was gone, I am afraid that it will be poor all his life, and it is difficult to even gather qi at the beginning of the cultivation path, and it can be said that it is difficult to move forward in the martial arts, how can he bear his mantle?
Lan Ruyin saw that her father had been thinking about it for a long time, and she vaguely seemed to be unwilling to agree, and she was angry and anxious. The temperament of the youngest daughter's family has come up, but the father has to agree to this apprenticeship. Immediately, he took his father's hand again, and there was a burst of soft grinding and hard foaming.
The man couldn't cry or laugh, he couldn't understand his daughter's temper anymore, his temper came up, if he didn't rely on her, he was afraid that he would be finished with himself today. But I gave birth to such a baby daughter, who has been spoiled abnormally since she was a child, that is, she is afraid of falling in the palm of her hand, and she is afraid of melting in her mouth.
I heard that there was a demon dragon in Mobei this time, and I came to make strings for the dragon, but I don't know where this little daughter's family got the news, so I had to follow to join in the fun.
It's just that when she went out, Lan Ruyin was also curious, what she wanted to play there was a stop-and-go every day, how could she remember anything about the demon dragon, but it was like she had come out to play in the mountains and rivers. Although it delayed a lot of trips, it deepened the affection between father and daughter.
As if thinking of something, the man looked away at the boy's fingers. Although Li Canglan has just turned ten years old this year, his fingers are slender and slender, white and delicate. The man nodded secretly. Immediately, he didn't hesitate, and waved Li Canglan over.
"What's your name, kid?" the man looked kindly.
"Master Huiyu, my name is Li Canglan" Li Canglan hurriedly wiped away the tears on his face, and replied respectfully in the face of his life-saving benefactor.
"I am the eldest disciple of Xuan Jingzhen, the head of the Kunlun Qionghua Sect, Lan Qinmu, are you willing to join my disciple and learn the piano with me?" the man asked with a smile.
Lan Ruyin couldn't help but smile when she saw that her father finally relented and agreed to the matter.
"My father doesn't accept apprentices easily, you should kneel down and kowtow."
Looking at the girl's warm smile, Li Canglan couldn't help but feel in a trance, he was immersed in the grief of losing his mother, but he didn't realize that the girl in front of him was so good-looking.
The long eyelashes flutter up and down, a pair of clear and clear beautiful eyes are full of smiles, the tall and beautiful Qiong nose is longer if it is increased by one point, and it is shorter if it is less.
Dan's lips are bright on the outside, his teeth are fresh on the inside, and the corners of his mouth are curved to raise a good-looking arc. The pear vortex on the cheeks looks particularly pink against the backdrop of the snow, like a glass of fragrant wine, making people get drunk before drinking.
Li Canglan couldn't help but be stupid.
Lan Ruyin's face flushed, and she hurriedly pushed the stunned boy in front of her, Li Canglan came back to her senses, remembered the important matter at the moment, and was embarrassed, and hurriedly knelt down in front of Lan Qinmu: "Master is above, please accept the disciple's worship." ”
One bow and three buckles, the ceremony of apprenticeship was completed, and Lan Qinmu helped up Li Canglan, whose forehead was covered with snow.
Li Canglan's serious injuries have not healed, he is already extremely weak, and he has relied on a trace of obsession to put his mother's body into the ground for peace, and he has strengthened his will. He was digging graves and burying his mother, and he was already extremely tired. In the blink of an eye, a new master was recognized, and his nerves relaxed slightly, and he fell straight into Lan Qinmu's arms.
Lan Qinmu investigated Li Canglan's pulse with one hand, although his breath was chaotic, he was no longer in danger of his life, knowing that he was only seriously injured and overworked and dizzy. At that moment, Lan Ruyin made a relieved look, hugged Li Canglan and went to the rear hut to avoid the snow.
At this time, the sky was already dark, although Lan Qinmu could fly with a sword, but Li Canglan was seriously injured, it was really not suitable to brave the snow and rush overnight, even if he planned to stay in this hut for the night, wait until dawn and start again.
Lanqin Mu is profound, and has already cultivated to the realm of Bigu and Qi that Taoism says. You can replenish yourself by absorbing the true power of the weather, even if you don't drink or eat for seven or eight days, there is no big problem.
But Lan Ruyin is still young, how can she have such a subtle Taoism, she has been driving a long way before, and she has been busy for a while, and she is already extremely hungry. Not to mention that Li Canglan already eats a lot, his chest is already hungry against his back, and his stomach is growling.
I saw the blue piano wood go out of the house with his front feet, and he returned in a blink of an eye, and he carried two big and white snow rabbits in his hands before he had a stick of incense. coincided with the battle of the demon dragon, and the animals in the mountains hid, hiding, and the slightly larger ones had already run away. It was not easy for Lanqin to catch two snow rabbits in the blink of an eye.
Peeling the skin and making a fire, the blue piano wood is skillful, how can there be half a point of cultivating the appearance of a master of the immortal family, but like a shopkeeper in an ordinary mountain village shop.
The fire flared, and after a while, the smell of meat spread in the small courtyard. Lan Qinmu smiled and handed the roasted rabbit to the two who were already hungry, Lan Ruyin took it quickly, Li Canglan thought to himself that the master had not eaten, how could he eat first, so he wanted to shirk.
Lan Ruyin had already preemptively explained: "Dad, he practiced the Kunlun Xuandao Technique to the fifth level many years ago, and when he reached the realm of the Jiedan, he could swallow the aura of heaven and earth to support himself. You don't have to worry about starving him, just eat it yourself. The belly rang like a gong. ”
Li Canglan was already extremely hungry, listening to the ridicule of the beautiful girl in front of him, he felt that his cheeks were feverish, and he was ashamed, so he didn't shirk it anymore, took the roast rabbit and ate it. Unexpectedly, this rabbit meat is crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, moderately salty and light, and extremely delicious. The master still has such a hand.
The sycamore trees in the yard are covered with snow. The young man in the house looked at the old things in the house, and for a while, he was full of thoughts, only to feel that all kinds of changes in this world, life and death, inevitably happened too quickly.
Thinking about it, tiredness hit, and I couldn't care about anything else, closed my eyes and put on my clothes, and fell asleep in this snowy night, in the familiar old house.
