Chapter Twenty-Eight: Descending the Mountain

Ma Pingyuan's idea is simple, just let two people come up the mountain at will and help Lao He do things, after all, the old man is old.

But after a little thought, it was vetoed, everything is foreseen, and everything is wasted, and you must remember not to be casual in everything.

At this time, listening to Lao He's question, Ma Ping said:

"If you go and tell Niu Fugui about this, you will say that the temple is about to open the mountain gate, and the poor road will recruit a few children who burn the fire, and even registered disciples."

"As for servants and the like, when the time comes, they will be recruited together."

Lao He was stunned when he heard this, this was the first time he had heard of it, but Ma Ping was becoming more and more majestic at this time, and he didn't want to ask too much, so he arched his hand and said:

"Yes, Lord"

Respectfully watched Ma Ping go to the backyard.

Lao He stood at the gate, looking at the mess inside and outside the house:

"Forget it, let's talk about it tomorrow" shook his head and picked up the broom on the side:

"It's a pity that I'm old...... Otherwise...... Hey~"

On the second day, the sky was clear.

Lao He got up early, boiled the rice porridge in the pot first, and then had the morning class.

By the time I finished my breakfast, it was already early days.

I went to talk to Ma Ping.

Then he took a blanket and hung it on his shoulder, and walked slowly down the mountain.

It's past the coldest time of the year, but the roads are still covered with snow.

The trees, the grass, the water, the ground, everywhere was white.

Exhale ~ inhale ~

Lao He stood at the bend of the mountain road.

Take a long breath, then exhale slowly:

A white qi is two feet long!

When the qi column completely dissipated, he withdrew his gaze from the small village at the bottom of the mountain.

Tightening his robe, Nong walked quickly down the hill with his hands.

From afar, I saw the high walled gate, on which there were three big characters of Niujiazhuang.

The bottom of the gate is different from the last time Ma Ping came, there are no guards.

Lao He didn't care, and walked straight inside.

He came here a lot of times, and when he ran out of oil and salt, he would ask the people in Zhuangzi to bring some back from the county seat.

There are too many people, and he can walk back and forth in the village with his eyes closed.

Xu is cold weather, I feel that it is too early to waste food, and most of the people in the Zhuangzi have just gotten up.

Now they are gathered in twos and threes, shouting mountain words.

When I saw Lao He walking all the way, they greeted each other.

Lao He nodded slightly, and the pace under his feet was faster.

He didn't have much time to delay at the bottom of the mountain, and it was only right to find Niu Fugui earlier and explain.

Cow house.

It is located in the north of Zhuangzi, not far from the middle position, next to the land shrine.

It is said to be a house, but in fact, it is a two-entry quadrangle courtyard:

Blue bricks and black tiles, red wooden doors.

Lao He stepped forward and slapped the wooden door with the buckle:

Bang!

Bang bang!~

"Who?" was Menzi's voice, looking a little impatient.

Lao He coughed lightly and said in a deep voice:

"Purple Mountain View, Lao He!"

Squeak~yah!

The door opened immediately, and a smiling face greeted it:

"It turned out to be He Daoye!Hurry up, please come in~" Tsing Yi Menzi was warm and thoughtful:

"My master was still talking about Dao Ye just now!"

Lao He stomped his feet, patted the sticky snowflakes, and then walked towards the yard.

Asked casually:

"What is your master talking about me?"

Tsing Yi Menzi stiffened with a smile, and immediately smiled:

"My lord just misses you, saying that I haven't seen you down the mountain for a long time"

How old and how to raise people!?

At first glance, he knew that this was nonsense, but he didn't debunk it.

When you're older, you have to get by a lot of the time, and you're too lazy to worry too much.

Walk across the cloister.

When I arrived at the study, Tsing Yi Menzi first called the girl to pour hot strong tea.

Lao He nodded with satisfaction, and took a small sip of the teacup:

"Whew~"

After walking for a long time on the snowy road, a cup of hot tea was in my stomach, and it suddenly seemed that all 38,000 pores were opened, and my whole body was comfortable.

Seeing Lao He's satisfied expression after drinking tea, Tsing Yi Menzi bowed down and smiled:

"Dao Ye drink first~ the little one will go and take a look at the back!"

Lao He squinted, waved his hand and said:

"Go, go, let your lord come over quickly"

Tsing Yi Menzi smiled, turned around and walked out of the study to the backyard.

Soon.

Before Lao He finished his first cup of tea, Niu Fugui's voice came from afar:

"Hahaha~ Brother is down today, we two have to have a good drink!"

Niu Fugui squeezed in from the door, opened his mouth and smiled:

"Brother hasn't been here for a long time!"

Lao He looked up, with a big bear skin and a mink tail hat, and shook his head slightly.

Waiting for people to sit down, Lao He put down the teacup before saying:

"I won't drink the wine, there are still many things on the poor mountain" waved his hand to stop Niu Fugui's persuasion, and continued:

"This descent from the mountain is the order of the Lord!"

Niu Fugui was startled, sat up straight and asked:

"But what does the Lord want me to do?!"

He had some connections in the county office, so he inquired about some things about the Lord on the mountain.

The more he learned, the more he was in awe!

In the past, he also had the idea of dividing the mountains and ruling the mountains:

The affairs on the mountain are under the control of the Taoist Temple, and the Taoist Temple is not allowed to interfere in the affairs of Niujiazhuang under the mountain!

But at this time, he would never have such an idea.

Such a master, it's too late for the people next to him to climb, how can he push it out!?

is because he is very attentive to being able to help the person on the mountain, and his eyes are blazing:

"As long as the Lord commands, go up to the sword mountain and go down to the sea of fire!

Lao He glanced at him inexplicably, but no matter what, this attitude is still worthy of affirmation.

Then he shook his head slightly and said:

"It's not necessary to go up the knife mountain, but not to go down to the sea of fire" and said:

"Didn't you ask the servants about it last time?"

Niu Li is talking about his eyes, but he didn't speak.

Lao He took a sip of hot tea from a cup and said:

"The meaning of the Lord is to open the mountain gate widely, recruit boys, and even register disciples!"

"When the time comes, I'll take a few more servants by the way, and I don't need to look for them now."

Bang bang!

!!

Named disciple!?

This is a master who can bring the dead back to life!!

He's actually going to accept disciples!?opportunity!!

Niu Lizheng's heart was pounding uncontrollably, and he tried to keep his tone as calm as possible, and asked:

"Brother, I don't know what this disciple wants?"

"It's a registered disciple!" Lao He emphasized:

"These two are not the same" before explaining:

"The age of the registered disciples and children should be between the ages of five and ten."

"If it's too small, the meridians haven't been finalized and can't be cultivated, and if it's too big, you've missed the best time to lay the foundation, and you can't refine the Great Hall of Fame."

Five to ten years old?

Gently fiddling with his beard, Niu Li rolled his eyes and had an idea.

arch hand said:

"I have a child under him, who is now just seven years old, and he is the smartest on weekdays."

"I wonder if there is a chance to become a registered disciple?"

I don't mind this old He:

"When the time comes, bring it with you, and let the viewer choose it himself"

......

handed over the things Ma Ping explained to Niu Fugui to carry out, and Lao He breathed a sigh of relief.

Bidding farewell to Niu Fugui, Lao He returned to the mountain to report to Ma Ping.

In the end, he deliberately said that Niu Fugui wanted his child to apprentice:

"Lord, that's roughly how it is~"
