Chapter 20: The Gentleman's Way

The second one was sent~

――――――

The middle-aged man didn't seem to hear Yang Chen's question, and still didn't answer, just kept looking up at the sky, not knowing what he was thinking, as if he had been addicted to the stars in the sky.

Yang Chen looked at the middle-aged man and still didn't pay attention to him, his brows furrowed tightly, and he kept guessing what the middle-aged man meant.

Time passed minute by minute, this stop was an hour of time, the middle-aged man kept looking up at the sky, and didn't pay attention to Yang Chen behind him, Yang Chen also kept standing there, silent.

At this time, Yang Chen's forehead was gradually sweating, he had been busy since the afternoon, and now he was standing here for an hour, Yang Chen was already a little unbearable.

However, now that the middle-aged man has been standing here, he doesn't know what to do at all, neither walking nor resting, so he can only stand here with the middle-aged man.

The sky outside had gradually begun to brighten, and at the eastern margin, a hint of fish belly white had been revealed, and now it was obvious that the night had passed.

As a ray of sunlight shone in through the window, the middle-aged man finally moved.

The middle-aged man slowly turned around and looked at Yang Chen.

Yang Chen showed a look of vigilance on his face and asked, "Senior, who are you?"

The middle-aged man smiled slightly and asked, "Who are you?"

Yang Chen frowned and replied, "I am an outer disciple of the Heavenly Dao Sect!"

The middle-aged man shook his head with a smile and continued to ask, "Who are you?"

Yang Chen was stunned for a moment, and said suspiciously: "I am an outer disciple of the Heavenly Dao Sect, my name is Yang Chen, and I am here to carry out a cleaning task." ”

The middle-aged man was not in a hurry, he still had a smile on his face, and said, "Who are you?"

Yang Chen was completely puzzled, he had obviously told the middle-aged man his identity, why did the middle-aged man ask this question.

Yang Chen fell into deep thought, and there was a hint of thought between his eyebrows, and he didn't speak for a long time.

The middle-aged man was not in a hurry, but just stood in front of Yang Chen, waiting for Yang Chen's answer.

"I am who I am!"

After a while, Yang Chen raised his head and said to the middle-aged man with a serious face, this is the most correct answer he has thought about for a long time.

The middle-aged man listened to Yang Chen's words, nodded with some emotion, smiled slightly, and said, "Yes, you are a disciple who just entered this Heavenly Dao Sect this year?"

Yang Chen bowed respectfully, and did not answer the middle-aged man's words, but asked rhetorically: "Senior, you haven't told me if you are from this Heavenly Dao Sect?"

Although Yang Chen told the middle-aged man about his affairs at the beginning, the middle-aged man in front of him was very mysterious, and when he didn't know his true identity, he was still full of defense.

The middle-aged man didn't expect the child in front of him to ask himself, so he laughed, nodded, and said, "It's right to say that I'm from this Heavenly Dao Gate, and it's right to say that I'm not from this Heavenly Dao Gate!"

Yang Chen frowned, revealing a look of doubt, obviously he didn't understand the words of the middle-aged man in purple robe in front of him.

The middle-aged man smiled and explained: "I am not a person from this Heavenly Dao Sect myself, but I joined this Heavenly Dao Sect later and became an Worship Elder, but I am still me, and I am not subject to this Heavenly Dao Sect. ”

Yang Chen nodded understandingly, and said respectfully: "Disciple Yang Chen greets the elder, please don't blame the disciple for his recklessness just now!"

The middle-aged man smiled kindly and said, "In the Heavenly Dao Gate, we, the worship elders, are wearing these purple clothes, and you are a disciple who has just started, and it is reasonable to not know it, so why blame it?"

Yang Chen smiled apologetically and said, "Thank you, Elder!"

The middle-aged man smiled slightly and asked, "How do you feel about standing with me all night?"

Yang Chen listened to the middle-aged man's words, was silent for a while, shook his head a little embarrassed, and said, "The disciple is ignorant, and he hasn't realized anything!"

The middle-aged man listened to Yang Chen's answer, not only was he not disappointed, but nodded with a smile, and said with satisfaction: "Yes, you are more honest, in this Heavenly Dao Sect, there have been many disciples who have stood with me all night, whenever we have the same question, they always rack their brains to answer me, you are the first to say that you have not felt anything!"

Yang Chen smiled ashamedly and said embarrassedly, "Elder Miao praised." ”

The middle-aged man shook his head with a smile and said, "When you first saw me, although you were a little afraid, you still kept calm, which shows that you are not surprised! Also, the first question I asked you just now, you were able to answer me so quickly, although it is not entirely correct, but for you, who have not yet cultivated aura, it is already good!"

Yang Chen listened to the middle-aged man's praise, smiled slightly, and bowed respectfully again.

The middle-aged man turned to look at the sky outside, and said with emotion: "I have practiced the way of a gentleman all my life, and I have met countless genius disciples, but I have not found a single disciple, and at the same time I have the four points of honesty, kindness, calmness, and patience, but I didn't expect to accidentally find you today, although you only showed three points, but I believe that you are a kind person, but your qualifications are too poor, if not, I will definitely accept you as an apprentice and teach you the gentleman's way that I have realized with my life!"

Yang Chen listened to the middle-aged man's words, and felt a little lost in his heart, not necessarily clenched his fists, and secretly said in his heart that he was qualified.

The middle-aged man turned to look at Yang Chen's appearance, smiled slightly, and said, "You don't have to be disappointed, as long as you are willing to work hard, although your achievements in the future will not be high, you can also have a place in this Heavenly Dao Gate!

"Thank you for the elder's teachings, the disciple will definitely work hard!"

Yang Chen knew that the middle-aged man was just comforting him, but he was not the kind of person who gave up easily when he encountered setbacks, otherwise, he would not have been able to become an outer disciple of this Heavenly Dao Sect with his super perseverance.

"However, since we are talking about meeting today, this is fate, and I will tell you some of my feelings about the gentleman's way, I hope it will help you!" The middle-aged man smiled slightly and said: "The gentleman, the powerful are not flattering, the powerful are not attached, the captivating are not served, the evil is not shy about it, the strong are not afraid of it, the weak are not bullied, the good are friends, the likes and evils are abandoned, the long are respected, and the young are protected."
