Chapter 11: The Side of the East Mountain
Huiji Mountain is the place where Xie An, the prime minister of the Eastern Jin Dynasty, once lived in seclusion. www.biquge.info I think that back then, Xie An walked out of the mountains and forests, and between talking and laughing, he defeated the million-strong army of Hou Qin Fujian in one fell swoop, thus achieving the world's fame.
Nowadays, the beautiful Dongshan is still beautiful, and under the aura of the magnificent deeds of the predecessors, Dongshan, a place that was originally unknown, has also become a place where literati and writers often visit.
And the Holy Mother of the White Lotus Society, Wen Xiaohui, also took a fancy to the strong aura of Dongshan, so she took Mao Zheng and Wen Yuan to practice here, just to let Mao Zheng achieve great success as soon as possible.
After sleeping for a few days, Mao Zheng finally woke up, and after asking Wen Yuan about what happened, he was also surprised that he was able to defeat the Maoshan Taoist.
Mao Zheng has heard Wen Xiaohui say since he was a child that although there are so-called etiquettes in the world, those etiquettes are prepared for the best people. As long as you can become a superior person, everyone will reason with you and be polite to you. But if you can't become a superior person, then you can only be bullied, and you can't complain.
Mao Zheng has been with the people of the White Lotus Society since he was a child, and it is common for him to be looked down upon, even the Buddhist sect that shelters them, not to mention the others.
When Mao Zheng knew that he had defeated the Maoshan Taoist, he was surprised for a while, and he turned into confidence. He has to practice spells well, as long as he is successful, no one can bully him. Of course, Mao Zheng has another idea, that is, after he completes his exercises, he wants to find his father-killing enemy, and then avenge his parents. He knew that there was a microscopic technique in the White Lotus Society that could help him find his enemies, but the Holy Mother Wen Xiaohui said that she would not pass it on to him.
Early in the morning, just after dawn, Mao Zheng had already come to the mountains and forests of Dongshan, getting up in the morning to practice martial arts, and then reading and meditating, which was what he had to do all day long. When he knew his potential, he just wanted to tap his potential as soon as possible, so he cultivated and became diligent.
After practicing a set of knife techniques, Mao Zheng was already sweating profusely, but under the nourishment of Dongshan's rich aura, Mao Zheng's physical strength recovered quickly. Just when Mao Zheng was about to practice another set of sword techniques, Wu Zhongshan arrived with an old man with white hair.
And that old man is Mao Zheng's most hated teacher. Wen Xiaohui spent a lot of money to invite this gentleman to come, but this gentleman was not polite to Mao Zheng, and asked him to carry some of it all day long.
Mao Zheng was very reluctant to endorse, he just wanted to spend more time practicing martial arts or cultivating spells, he didn't know what the use of those people was.
Seeing Mr. Teaching coming over with an expressionless face, Mao Zheng's little face was about to turn into a bitter melon.
"Zheng'er doesn't need to practice martial arts anymore, hurry up and come over to meet Mr. Wu Yat-sen shouted.
Mao Zheng walked over reluctantly. When he passed by Wu Zhongshan's side, Mao Zheng whispered: "Uncle Wu, can't I not study with that old man? That old man is too fierce, I don't like him." When I have time to study, I'd rather practice martial arts and spells for a while. ”
"Our Lady and I are also good to you. You know, your problem is not that your cultivation is too slow, but that your cultivation speed is too fast, so fast that you can't even control the mana in your body. This kind of thing should only happen to some people who have obtained masters, but you have had signs of going mad several times. Our Lady and I don't want anything to happen to you. Wu Zhongshan said.
"As long as I work hard, I will definitely serve the customer, don't you have to study?" Mao Zheng bowed his head and said.
"There are two ways to solve this problem, one is to let you increase your knowledge, as long as your knowledge is high enough, you will not go into a fork in the road when you cultivate. Another way is to hone your will, as long as your will is strong enough, even if you get through a fork in the road. And if you want to temper your will, you have to face the pain, and Our Lady and I love you so much, how can we bear to let you suffer? Wu Zhongshan persuaded.
"But it's painful enough for me to study, it's worse than killing me. Mao Zheng said.
"Isn't that just right? Killing two birds with one stone, it not only increases my knowledge, but also sharpens my will. I'm going to let you go to school even more," Wu Zhongshan clapped his hands.
Mao Zheng listened to Wu Zhongshan's words, his mouth opened wide, and he regretted telling him that he hated studying.
"It's about to begin, what are you waiting for, boy? To be a man, you must first learn to abide by the rules, and if you don't follow the rules, you will be punished. As he spoke, Mr. Teach slapped a ring ruler on the table of the Eight Immortals.
Mao Zheng listened to the "snap", and his heart jumped a little, it still hurts to beat people with that ring ruler, but he has a deep understanding.
Reluctantly walked over, Mao Zheng looked back at Wu Zhongshan twice, like a prisoner who was executed and said goodbye to his family.
Mao Zheng painfully recited some passages from the Analects. The teacher listened with his eyes closed, shaking his head. It seems to be enjoying it.
"Today I am being punished by Our Lady, and I want to make fun of you, to see if you dare to bully me. Mao Zheng thought in his heart, a piece of rune paper was in his hand, and he silently recited a spell in his heart, which was to burn all the white beard of Mr. Teaching.
But the rune paper, floating in front of Mr. Teaching, fell with a flash, and Mao Zheng's hand and his heart were tingling, and the pain made him fall from his seat to the ground in an instant.
"It hurts me to death, you used to know spells, why didn't you tell me, oops, it hurt me. Mao Zheng rolled on the ground in pain, but he couldn't stop talking.
"Zi Bu said 'gods and ghosts are chaotic', I have been guarding the right path all my life, how can I know how to do magic? You hurry up, don't pretend, you can't deceive me. Mr. Jiao thought that Mao Zheng didn't want to study, so he pretended to be sick, so he said angrily.
Mao Zheng wanted to refute, but the pain made him unable to open his mouth at all.
"If you have respect in your heart, you will be free from the pain of condemnation. A voice reached Mao Zheng's ears.
Hearing this, Mao Zheng no longer had the idea of disobedience in his heart, and the pain in his heart disappeared a lot.
Mr. Teaching found that Mao Zheng was not pretending, so he put down the ring ruler, inquired about Mao Zheng's situation carefully, and finally made sure that Mao Zheng was okay before continuing to lecture.
Mao Zheng suffered, so naturally he didn't dare to tease Mr. anymore, so he had to listen to the lecture honestly.
After the lesson, the teacher left the place. Our Lady Wen Xiaohui walked in, picked up the paper talisman under the table of the Eight Immortals, and said, "Now you have finally suffered a lot." But it's better to suffer a little now than to make a big mistake later. ”
