Chapter Forty-Nine: The Gatekeeper
All the way up from Wudang Taoist Temple along the mountain road, there was hardly a single figure on this road. It feels a bit like the big pie.
"It should be almost there!" Long Gongzi vaguely saw the mountain gate of Wudang Mountain: "The road up the mountain is quite long." β
"Huh! Is this the Wudang faction?" what caught my eye was where the Wudang faction's division was.
"Wow, the real Wudang faction is different, it's much more magnificent. β
The wall of the Wudang faction is also five or six hundred years old, and I don't know how many years ago it was last overhauled. The whole wall stands majestically, made of ancient stones, and the wall is covered with vermilion rubble. The scene inside Wudang is tightly wrapped, and this wall is still standing with Wudang after countless battles, only a little moss on the wall, but it shows that Wudang is simple and solemn. The gate is made of fir wood through the ghost axe craftsman, and the door is crowned with the archway that makes the world feel majestic, and it is the Wudang sect that is engraved with three big characters on three sidesβββ.
"Little master, please stay, non-Wudang Gate or Wudang guests are not allowed to enter. "These are two disciples who are guarding the door and come forward to Yu Longgongzi.
Long Gongzi looked the two disciples guarding the door up and down, and sure enough, this was the clothes worn by the Wudang disciples. Dressed in a white tight robe, with a green silk belt around his waist, black boots on his feet, and a sword in his hand, this is the image of Wudang disciples on weekdays, and it really doesn't look like that kind of uniform, it's too inconvenient.
"It's so stylish. Long Gongzi looked at himself, not hearing what the disciple said to him at all.
One of the disciples of these two people looked at Long Gongzi like this, and felt that he didn't take himself seriously, and as a disciple of Wudang, he always had some arrogance in his heart.
"Boy, didn't you hear what I said? Don't you just take our Wudang faction seriously?" This disciple's heart is actually not bad, but his personality is a little hot, and his heart is actually extremely loyal to the Wudang faction, so he will be a little angry when he sees Long Gongzi like this.
"Senior brother, forget it, maybe he didn't mean it. Another disciple pulled his senior brother's shoulder, but this disciple's personality was diametrically opposed to his senior brother, approachable and very gentle. Sending such two people to guard the gate is just right to support each other and restrain each other, and Wudang people are worthy of being people with great wisdom.
"Ah, I'm sorry, I just saw the gate of this Wudang, and I was really shocked by this momentum, so I walked back to my senses. I'm sorry. "Long Gongzi is also laughing and accompanies him.
"Hmph, you can still talk. This disciple still snorted coldly, obviously still a little dissatisfied with Long Gongzi's previous performance.
"Hehe, little master, my senior brother's temper is like this, and it is also for the reputation of the Wudang faction, don't be surprised, my heart is actually good. The junior brother smiled and came up to explain to Long Gongzi.
Long Gongzi also knew that he was indeed rude first, and he didn't think much about it, he was not the kind of person who was easy to get angry, but he was very cheerful.
"It's okay, it's okay, it's me who missed first. β
"By the way, does the little master have anything to do with our Wudang Sect?" the junior brother asked humbly.
"I'm here to apprentice in the Wudang Sect. β
Hey, isn't it time for us to accept apprentices in Wudang? This junior disciple also has the same doubts.
"Little master, it will be two months before our Wudang Sect recruits apprentices. It's not the right time for you to come. The junior brother still greeted him with a smile.
Long Gongzi had expected him to say this, took out the baggage, and rummaged through it carefully for a while.
"Found it. What he was looking for was the token that his third uncle had left for his son, the head of the Wudang faction.
The dragon bow took it out and wiped it.
"It's not a secret, my uncle and the head of the Wudang faction are close friends. I specially gave this token to the head of Fusheng and asked him to accept me as a disciple of Wudang. Long Gongzi also made it up randomly, listening to the tone of the third uncle, it should not be bad to have a relationship with the head of the floating life. Anyway, the third uncle is not around now, so he can only gamble.
"Oh?" Sure enough, the two disciples who were guarding the door were also shocked when they heard the name of the head of the floating life. Hurriedly stepped forward to take the token of the dragon bow.
"Senior brother, this token doesn't look like it's fake, I don't know if what he said is true or not. The hot-tempered senior brother pulled the junior brother over and discussed. After all, as long as it is related to the head of the floating life, it is a big thing.
"We can't decide on this matter, let's go back and ask the master first. After all, the junior brother is still thoughtful, and he immediately has an idea.
"Little master. I think we should ask the master first, after all, we can't call the shots. β
"En" Long Gongzi also felt that this was also excusable: "Then I'll wait here for news!"
As he spoke, the senior brother went in with the dragon bow token. Left behind the dragon bow and his junior brother. After entering, he went directly to the place where his master usually meditated and cultivated.
"Master, master, do you have something to tell you?" After the Wudang disciple saw his master, he immediately prayed to him.
"Yan'er, for the teacher, I usually tell you not to be frizzy when you do things, for the teacher just brewed a cup of Longjing, and I was thinking about a good product, but you came in in a hurry, and ruined all my atmosphere, oops. You really are. The person who spoke was Bie Zhuoqing, one of the Seven Heroes of Wudang.
This person's status in Wudang can be said to be quite high, as the four heroes of the Wudang Seven Heroes, the swordsmanship is extremely exquisite, and he is also kind on weekdays, and he has won the true inheritance and love of the previous generation of Wudang heads. is also about the same age as the head of the floating life, if it weren't for the fact that the head of the floating life was too amazing. How many years later, he may be his head. But he's not the one who cares about that.
Not only is it highly respected in the Wudang faction, but it is also extremely respected in the rivers and lakes. Known as "Zhuo Qing Zhenren"
Although he blamed his disciple on his lips, he was actually very concerned about his apprentice in his heart, and he was a pity in his heart for his interest in drinking tea.
"We Wudang people pay attention to calmness, only by calming down, can we understand the true meaning of martial arts. How many times have I taught you? When will you change your temperament? Tell me, what's the matter with finding a teacher? By the way, shouldn't you be standing guard at the gate now? Why did you suddenly come here. β
"Yes, master. After speaking, the Yan'er in Zhuoqing's mouth thought about it, so he knelt down first and asked his master to say goodbye.
Bei Zhuoqing also nodded with satisfaction: "Get up, what's the matter?"
"Master, it's like this, there is a person who looks about my age outside the door. I want to come and worship as the first son of Wudang. β
"Oh, that's it, didn't you tell him that our Wudang Sect is not yet ready to accept disciples?"
"I said, it's just that this person said that his uncle was a close friend of the head of the floating life, and he came to apprentice on purpose, and he also gave me a token given to him by the head of the floating life. The apprentice didn't know if it was true or not, so he came to the master to take a look. β
"Fusheng's best friend? Who could it be? But Fusheng is not in Wudang Gate at all, and he looks like a ghost all day long, only the ghost knows where he has gone. Don't Zhuoqing said angrily.
Hearing that, Yan'er was also embarrassed, and dared to say that there were few people in charge of Wudang.
"Can you show me the token first?"
Yan'er hurriedly handed the token in her hand to her master.
"Well, hey, it turned out to be a floating word order, and this is really the token of the floating life himself. There will be no fakes. But Fusheng is not in the door now?" Bei Zhuoqing thought for a while: "Why don't you bring him to me first to see what his qualifications are?" If he returns, I will take him in this apprentice. If his qualifications are not good, let him be an outer disciple, and if his character is not good, he will be expelled from Wudang. β
"Master, this, it's not good to be accepted as an apprentice. β
