"You are a person who is not a worldly person, since God has arranged for you to come to this world, it naturally has its reason, if you want to solve this mystery, as long as you enter my door, it will be able to solve the doubt one day. Lai Laodao patted Li Ge's little shoulder, and then said, "Little guy, think about it, I don't embarrass you, you will give me an answer tomorrow morning." ”

After saying this, the old Taoist priest lay down directly on the bed, stretched his waist and fell asleep.

Looking at the old Taoist priest who was lying on the bed and snoring 'hu~' and 'hu~' for a long time, Li Ge reluctantly walked to the table and sat on the chair to think.

Now I have no way in the Ming Dynasty, I am afraid that I will not be able to go back in the future, I have a father and a mother here, and my family is also rich and wealthy, if I live in the Li Mansion, after ten or eight years, it is estimated that I will marry a wife and take a concubine, and live a stable life from now on. Although this kind of life is very desirable, in this closed dynasty, is this kind of life really meaningful?

At present, this old Taoist priest has a unique skill, like a god, since he is willing to accept me as a disciple, then I will worship under his disciple and be a cultivator.

After thinking about it for half the night and thinking of all kinds of favorable relationships, Li Ge made a decision in his heart when it was dawn.

"Little guy, have you thought about it?" Lai Laodao sat up from the bed lazily, stretched, walked to the table and sat down and drank tea.

"Bye~ I am willing to worship the master's sect. Li Ge hurriedly nodded in response, and was about to kneel down and kowtow, but was stopped by Lai Laodao.

"You're so casual with you, when you go back to my residence, you can worship the teacher. The old Taoist priest got up with a smile, smiled, opened the door, took a deep breath, and said, "Let's go, little guy, go and talk to your parents about apprenticeship, if they agree, I dare to accept you." ”

The little boy of the Li family nodded, and then walked towards the living room of the house with Lai Laodao.

"Old fairy, you are up, I am about to call you for breakfast. Ding Qiaoqiao in the hall saw the old Taoist priest and Li Ge walking in, and hurriedly got up to greet him.

"Old fairy, you sit here. Li Yunlong respectfully beckoned the old Taoist priest to sit down.

"You're welcome, sit down, I have something to discuss with you. Lai Changsheng stroked the silver beard under his lips, looked at the couple sitting down and said with a serious face, "Don't hide it, your family Li Ge and I have a master-apprentice relationship, so I want to accept him as a beginner, do you know what you think?"

After Lai Laodao's words came out, the husband and wife immediately fell silent, and after half a sound, they glanced at each other, and the Li family got up and whispered, "Old immortal, your mana is strong, we are naturally willing to follow you to learn the arts, but Ge'er is the eighth generation of our Li family, if we learn the Tao with you..."

At this point, Lai Laodao also understood what Ding Qiaoqiao meant, and laughed loudly: "It is true that our cloth cloth sect is a scholar of Taoism, but it is not a great monk who cultivates Buddha and shaves his hair, and there is no teacher's instruction that you cannot marry a wife and have children. Speaking of this, the old Taoist priest paused and said, "Seven years ago, I made an appointment with an old man, and if I can find an apprentice one day, I will definitely marry her descendant." Li Ge is now eight years old, exactly the same age as my deceased descendant. ”

"Old Immortal, is what you said true?" Li Yunlong stood up from his chair with an excited face.

"What the old Taoist said is true. Old man Lai's face sank, sighed and said, "I am sincere in accepting apprentices, if you husband and wife agree, I will accept Li Ge, or if you don't agree, Lao Dao will leave." ”

Lai Lao Dao's ability and husband and wife know, originally hesitated should not be afraid that their son would enter the Taoist sect and will not be able to pass on the lineage in the future, but now when they heard the old Taoist priest's words, both of them showed a smile and responded in unison, "Promise~ Old fairy, we promise." ”

"Haha~ That's good. The old Taoist priest smiled heartily, and immediately introduced, "The old Taoist name is Lai Changsheng, and he studied under the cloth cloth school, and our school mainly cultivates medicine, divination, law, array and feng shui techniques, and the cloth cloth school is the Song Dynasty..."

With Lai Laodao's introduction, the Li family and his wife listened attentively, listening to him beside him, but Li Ge lowered his head and looked pensive.

In ancient times, people married according to the orders of their parents and the words of matchmakers, but now the old man who is about to become his master actually said that he wants to find a daughter-in-law for himself. I think his parents are gone in modern times, the family is poor and has no great ability, and he hasn't even pulled a girl's hand at the age of twenty-four, and I don't know what the old man's daughter-in-law will be like?

When Li Ge was thinking about it, the old Taoist priest took out a piece of jade and hung it on the former's neck, then touched his head and said, "Then so be it, I still have some things to deal with, and in a month, I will come to Meridian Town to take Li Ge away." ”

"Okay, Lai Lao. The husband and wife moved to send the old way out.

"Didn't you want to accept me as an apprentice?, why did you leave?" Li Ge, who had recovered from his contemplation, glanced at the jade pendant on his chest, and hurriedly chased after me and shouted, "Master, don't you want to accept me as an apprentice?"

"I have something to prepare, I'll pick you up in a month, the jade pendant just now is the ancient jade that I have been cultivating for decades, and you can wear it on your body to ward off evil spirits. The old Taoist priest who walked to the door laughed and said, "No need to send it, you can go in." ”

A family of three stood outside the door, looking at the old and thin figure that disappeared on the corner of the street, and was silent for a long time before returning to the house.

Time flickered, and more than 20 days passed quietly.

It was night, on the dark streets of Meridian Town, there were still two red lanterns lit in front of the store of **Fenglou along the street.

In a private room on the second floor of this Chunfeng Building, a pretty woman with heavy makeup and bright makeup was holding a red belly pocket on her white chest, and then patted a thin man lying beside her and said, "Half immortal, you can stay tonight." ”

"Don't stay, you want to tire me to death, I'm going back to sleep. The man lying on the bed stretched out his hand and touched the pretty woman's white and smooth jade back, and then got out of bed and picked up the clothes scattered on the ground, and after putting them on at will, he opened the door and went downstairs, this person was Ai Banxian.

"Hello~ Master Banxian, are you still satisfied with the flowers?" When Ai Banxian went downstairs, an old woman who was about fifty years old and dressed up in a fancy way greeted him.

"I'm tired of Lao Tzu, that girl from Hua'er tossed half of my life. Ai Banxian nodded with satisfaction, raised his hand and waved his hands behind his back and said, "No need to send Mother Wang, you go and greet other guests, I'll come another day, you have to keep flowers for me." ”

"Haole~" Mother Wang nodded again and again, looked at the back of Ai Banxian who walked out of the store and shouted, "Master Banxian, slow down." ”

After leaving Chunfeng Tower, Ai Banxian hummed a small tune in his mouth, and walked leisurely on the dark streets, walking towards the east of the town. It wasn't long before he turned and walked into a small, silent side street.

Just as Ai Banxian walked into this small horizontal street, a cold wind suddenly blew up, and then a sharp branch pierced his chest head-on, and then a scream sounded, and after a while, the dark wind on the dark street stopped and returned to calm.
