Chapter 7: The Beginning of the Immortal Path (I)
Once born and twice ripe, he came to Lin Ziqian's courtyard again.
Gu Ming's heartbeat uncontrollably accelerated, and this excitement made Gu Ming feel his body tremble for a while.
Hehe, I haven't felt this way in years, and this time it's even better than when I first stepped on a college campus.
When Gu Ming followed the boy in white to the main hall, Lin Ziqian was already sitting in the hall upright, and the tables, incense burners, melons and fruits, and tributes had already been prepared one by one.
The apprenticeship went smoothly, after kneeling and bowing three times, Gu Ming got up and bowed to the master to make a tea, and then respectfully called the white-clothed boy standing beside Lin Ziqian, Senior Brother, and it was completed.
Although Gu Ming was older than the boy, Gu Ming could only call the boy in white a senior brother. There's no way, who calls the first to enter the master the greatest.
In fact, this apprenticeship is not yet an entry, Lin Ziqian smiled and said to Gu Mingyan: "After today's apprenticeship, you will be counted as a registered disciple of my sect." He was invited to be a guest Dan master in the Mochizuki Sword Sect for five years, and there are still three years to go. After the expiration of the period, take you back to the Medicine Master Valley to perform three kneels and nine bows to the ancestors, and enter them into the list of Danshi to get started. When the time comes, before you officially get started, the sect elders will consider your Dan Master's experience, and you have to be more careful in the past few years, so as not to fall into the name of a teacher. ”
"Yes, master!" Gu Ming hurriedly nodded and replied.
Lin Ziqian said again: "Knowing the front and knowing the back is true, and only by removing the false and preserving the truth can you get the way." Cultivating truth is self-cultivation, self-cultivation, and moral cultivation. Those who seek to control and gain power, even if they cultivate the Dharma Body, can only be regarded as cultivation at most; those who seek to live forever and gain freedom can only be regarded as cultivating immortals; and those who know cause and effect and know the gains and losses, and only those who cultivate all three can be regarded as cultivating the truth. ”
"The disciple has been taught!" Gu Ming hurriedly nodded and replied.
Lin Ziqian said again: "You haven't started cultivating yet, you can't even be a cultivator, and I won't say much to you as a teacher, only one word must be remembered: Danshi Dao, insight into yin and yang, deep creation, longevity with the sky, and soul from the earth." Alchemy is really against the sky, so the Danshi is the most important cause and effect, and he attaches more importance to cultivating virtue, otherwise the longer he cultivates and the deeper his skills, the more he will be riddled with bad karma and even be punished by God. ”
"Disciple respectfully follow the teachings of the master!" Gu Ming hurriedly nodded and replied. Muma, so complicated, so scary.
Lin Ziqian looked at the newly accepted disciple with satisfaction, and said to the white-clothed boy: "Mingyue, take your junior brother down to settle down for a while, and then go to the Moon Gazing Sword Sect to make a report, and by the way, borrow the treasure of the sect to test the grade of the spiritual root for him." ”
"Mingyue takes the order!" replied the boy in white crisply.
......
After Gu Ming thanked Master Xie, he followed Mingyue to the backyard, from the time she left the main hall, Mingyue was not as serious as just now, she just accepted a little brother, which made Mingyue very happy.
Looking at the little senior brother who was carved in powder and jade, he looked like a senior, and introduced the layout of the courtyard in a crisp tone, while explaining the precautions to Gu Ming. For example, this is the study, which is the place where the master cultivates, and the master generally does not let people in, but it is okay to sneak in, and you must not be caught, and it is miserable to be caught; this is the Dan room, which is a forbidden place set up by the master, and you must not go in, and you must not be caught, and it is miserable to be caught; this is the warehouse, which stores the daily necessities and some medicinal materials, come here, come here, and tell you secretly, there is a small compartment inside, which stores the master's precious medicinal materials, and you can take some secretly, but don't be caught, it is miserable to be caught.
The more Mingyue talked, the happier she became, but the more she said about Gu Ming's head, the more black lines appeared on Gu Ming's head, Gu Ming's belly, my God, senior brother, can you not be so cute!
Gu Ming chose a room to live in the side room, this room was next to Mingyue's room, and to the right was the hall where the master Lin Ziqian lived. said that it was a choice, but in fact, it was directly designated by Mingyue, and he was also helpless about it.
After settling down in a hurry, Mingyue's eyes flickered and said to Gu Ming: "Senior brother, let's go, senior brother will take you to the Moon Moon Sword Sect to fight the autumn breeze." ”
Looking at the little senior brother who was a little off the line, Gu Ming suddenly became worried about the immortal road that he had not officially opened.
Mingyue has been living with her master in the Mochizuki Sword School for two years, and in order to take care of her master's daily life, she is busy alone on weekdays, so she is relatively familiar with the Mochizuki Sword School. So there was no need to guide the boy today, Mingyue herself took Gu Ming all the way to the deacon hall.
Along the way, I met many cultivators.
For the high-level monks, Mingyue immediately saluted respectfully, and led Gu Ming to call XX Senior Uncle, XX Senior Uncle!
For peers or outer disciples, Mingyue immediately changed to a proud posture, "This is my newly accepted junior disciple, I will take care of it in the future!"
Your newly adopted junior brother? Gu Ming felt a chill, senior brother, can you not be so arrogant!
While speaking, the two have come to the deacon hall, the head of the deacon hall is called Ke Yiqing, Jin Dan later cultivation, it is rumored that he was seriously injured for the sect in the early years, resulting in the cultivation of Jin Dan, although he is now in charge of the deacon hall, but he basically does not ask too much about the general affairs of the hall, and all the things in the deacon hall are decided by the deputy He Beicheng.
But today's matter, there is no need to find a steward at all, Mingyue introduced the situation of the deacon hall, and at the same time led Gu Ming to the counter in the foyer, knocked on the counter twice with her hand, and shouted, "Someone is coming!"
There is no way, the counter has already exceeded the height of Gu Ming and Mingyue, and the people inside can't see it at all.
After a while, a head stretched out from the counter, looked at the two Mingyue standing in front of the stage, quickly stood up straight, and said with a smile: "It turned out to be Mingyue Boy, is there something wrong with this time?"
Mingyue obviously also knew the middle-aged deacon at the counter, pointed at Gu Ming and said with a smile: "Old Qiu, this is my newly accepted junior brother, the master asked me to bring him to report for a record, and then by the way, I will test him for a spiritual root grade." ”
The deacon, known as Lao Qiu, smiled and said, "That's right, can the boy have the certificate of Lin Immortal Master?"
When Mingyue heard this, she jumped up anxiously and shouted, "Can the person I brought with Mingyue still have a fake? What kind of voucher do you need?!"
The middle-aged deacon put on a look of embarrassment: "There is no evidence! This is difficult, this is not in accordance with the rules! Tut, it is difficult, tsk!"
Seeing that Mingyue was already a little anxious, the deacon looked a little thoughtful, turned his head and stroked his beard and said, "But ......"
Seeing the middle-aged deacon's attitude of wanting to speak and stopping, Mingyue seemed to feel that things were still turning around, and hurriedly grabbed the edge of the counter with her hand, put her head out of the counter, looked at him with big eyes and asked, "But what?"
Deacon Lao Qiu glanced at Mingyue hanging on the counter with his spare eyes, turned his face to the other side, and continued to ponder. Mingyue used her hands and feet together, and moved to the other side of the counter flexibly like a monkey, and her big eyes continued to look at him flickering and asked, "But what?
When Deacon Qiu Lao heard this, he slowly turned his head, looked at Mingyue and said, "Actually, it's not that it can't be flexible, and it's not a bad rule to register first and then make up the voucher." But if I do this, if the steward finds out, I have a great responsibility!"
Hearing this, Mingyue jumped onto the counter with both hands, and bowed to the deacon: "Please, Qiu, Qiu Lao!"
Gu Ming looked at the two people in the conversation, and sneered, "Hey, who is it, do you dare to pretend to be a little more serious?"
......
"Ah, he wanted to laugh, and although he disguised it with the gesture of stroking his beard, the upturned corners of his mouth betrayed him!"
......
"Look, he couldn't help it, he turned his head away, he was definitely snickering!!"
......
Deacon Qiu Lao coughed twice, and said to Gu Ming: "For the sake of Mingyue Boy's face, I have to quietly register you first, come, write your information on this wooden card." ”
As he spoke, he handed a small wooden sign from the counter to Gu Ming.
Gu Ming thanked the deacon while taking the wooden card, and when filling in the wooden card, Mingyue, who looked like she had returned victoriously, was still happily guiding beside her, Gu Ming had a black line on his head, and his stomach slandered, "Senior brother, the master must have informed the sect in advance of such a big matter of accepting apprentices, you can't even see that this old man is pretending to be so fake?"
Name: Eh, Gu Ming, Lu Sheng, Shan Yanzi, Eh, it's better to write Gu Ming. Speaking of the name, Gu Ming's body trembled for a while, remembering the scene of discussing the name with his grandfather yesterday. At dinner yesterday, the two of them talked about being an "immortal master" after all (Li Laohan has always thought that all people with spiritual roots can become immortal masters), and it is not okay to have a loud name, Li Laohan drank a few glasses of wine and volunteered to name him.
How about being called Li Dingtian? Isn't it great to be a man who stands tall and loud in the sky?
Eh, will immortal cultivators be punished by heaven if they use this name?!
How about being called Li Youcai? It is not bad to be a wealthy and wealthy person.
Eh, isn't it too vulgar for an immortal cultivator to use this name?!
How about being called Li Xianshi? Directly expressing the desire to become an immortal in the name, this should be good, right?
Uh, how does this name sound so much like "you die first"?!
......
Li Laohan's name once again made Gu Ming fully realize the fact that "it's terrible to be uneducated". This scene evoked his memories for many years, and the figure of Li Laohan in front of him and his grandfather, who had passed away in his previous life, slowly overlapped in tears. It's nice to have loved ones around!
Of course, when the almost forgotten former name "Gu Dawa" emerged from the depths of his memory, he also felt a chill all over his body.
After suffering from a series of strange names, Gu Ming had to use the excuse of taking the Nourishing Pill given by Lin Ziqian to recover a little bit of memory, saying that he vaguely remembered that his name was Gu Ming, which persuaded his grandfather to accept this relatively ordinary-sounding name.
Gender: There's no hesitation in this, male!
Hometown: Write Lu Sheng's hometown! If you write the earth, will you be arrested and locked up in a small black house!
Age: Uh, write about 14 years old. Gu Ming and Lu Sheng, the two of them together have lived for almost fifty years, and they are still old virgins in their two lives, and they can't afford to lose this person.
Spiritual Root Attribute: Fire!
Grade: Inferior, whether it's 2 or 3, it's all inferior anyway!
Belong to the hall: Written under the guidance of Mingyue, under the tutelage of the guest Danshi Lin Ziqian.
