Chapter 2: Named Disciples
Since the last time he visited the lake, Li Qiyue fell ill and lay in bed for a whole month. Although the pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info said that he had recovered from his illness, his thin little body was even more thin, and he walked and swayed, as if a sneeze could blow him to the ground, and he had to turn over a few heels; his voice was as low as a mosquito humming, not only did he not look like a person from the Li family at all, not even like a man, but like a daughter who hid in the boudoir all the year round and did not go out.
The two brothers and cousins have not come back since chasing wild boars, and they have not heard from them.
Just when the Li family thought that the three of them had no chance of living, they actually appeared alive in front of the people of Taiping Village, and it had been a year since the wild boar attacked the village. When they came back, they brought back a person from the outside world, that person was in his thirties, surnamed Mu, called Mu Tianren, medium height, handsome face, with a three-foot long sword on his back, no matter whether it was a man or a woman or a child, between words and deeds, he was quite polite, but he was very capable, it was said that he could fly with a sword, and the three elder brothers flew back from his sword.
After listening to the introduction of the three elder brothers, the villagers regarded Mu Tianren as an immortal and called him Mu Tianshi, and Mu Tianren did not deny it.
It turned out that when the three brothers chased the wild boar a year and a half ago, because the elders of the family left their words, they did not kill the wild boar and swore not to give up, so they followed the wild boar over the mountains and mountains, and this walk did not know how many days, tired to rest, sleepy to sleep, with the instinct of the hunter, but did not chase the wild boar away, and finally one day after a year and a half, after countless failures, the three of them repeated the old trick, and finally ambushed the wild boar in a red date forest.
On the way back to the village, the servants met Mu Tianren, who had just traveled down the mountain, and Mu Tianren did not shy away from introducing himself, he was a hundred and hundred thousand miles away from this Yunyang Mountain, he was born in the sword spirit of Jiugu Mountain, and this time he went down the mountain to the mundane world to experience in order to break through the bottleneck of cultivation in order to smoothly advance to a higher level. Under the stunned eyes of the servants, Mu Tianren casually used a few tricks that they regarded as fairy-like means in their eyes, and the servants were shocked that they were celestials, and tried their best to invite Mu Tianren to his village as a guest, and he readily agreed.
Three days later, when the wine was drunk, Mu Tianshi took out a Dan bottle from his bag, and poured out three pills the size of pigeon eggs from the bottle in the palm of his hand.
"Hehe, what are you doing here? Hurry up, Mu is willing to accept worldly hospitality such as Er this time, and also acknowledge your friendship, relive the taste of fireworks in the world in the past, and sigh, because as a cultivator, he has no long things, and his kindness to you is beyond repayment. These three pills are just longevity pills, not the elixir that you imagine can soar in the daytime, and that kind of elixir Mu is also unattainable. This pill is a longevity pill, although it is not exhaustive, but the material collection is very difficult, Mu is also not the power of the two tigers, only to refine dozens of grains, because of the different qualifications of each person, this pill can increase the age of 20 to 30 years, because it is precious and rare, so it can not be given to others casually. Today, Mu wants to accept a named disciple, and these three longevity pills are my gift for accepting disciples......"
When everyone heard this, they looked at each other, and the village leader asked carefully, "Master Mu, do you always think that your disciple is so blessed?"
Mu Tianren glanced at the white-haired village leader, waved his hand and said, "Qin Weng, please get up, after these few days of observation, Mu has a candidate in his heart." ”
Without waiting for everyone to ask, he raised his finger and pointed to a thin young man who was tilting his head outside the door and said, "That little brother of the Li family is the person that Mu has a fancy for." ”
Everyone looked in the direction of his finger and found that the person Mu Tianren valued was Li Qiyue, and everyone couldn't help but sigh disapplausively, and some people even thought that although Mu Tianren was highly skilled, his vision was really unsatisfactory. As everyone knows, Li Qiyue's body and bones are completely muddy -- they can't be wiped on the wall. Mu Tianren saw it in his eyes and smiled without saying a word.
Li Qiyue watched the three pills rolling around in his palms, his whole body was crystal clear, and his whole body exuded a dense aura, he couldn't believe his eyes, such a good thing was something he couldn't even dream of, in fact, he followed Mu Tianren from a distance every day, and subconsciously he might want to be noticed by Mu Tianren, but he didn't dare to think about it, and after a full stick of incense, he came to his senses, hurriedly kowtowed nine times, and performed the disciple's salute on the spot, for fear that the night would be long and dreamy.
Mu Tianren happily accepted the salute.
After the ceremony, he saw that Li Qiyue opened his mouth to speak, so he asked: "July, do you have any questions? The road to cultivation is long, and it is impossible to achieve it overnight. Besides, you're only my registered disciple now,"
"The disciple wants to ask the master to take back a pill of longevity. ”
"Why?" Mu Tianren didn't expect to accept apprentices, and actually made such an inexplicable first request.
Li Qiyue's face was flushed with suffocation, and he snorted: "Of these three longevity pills, two of them are dedicated to their parents, and the remaining one is not allowed to be enjoyed by the disciples, not to mention that the disciples will learn from the master in the future, and the cultivation is not comparable to this one longevity pill, so the disciple asks the master to take back one of them." ”
Mu Tianren put away his smile and sat upright: "If you don't take it back for the teacher, what should you do with this Dan?"
Li Qiyue tilted his head and looked around and said: "Master, if you dissolve this pill with wine, everyone in the village can share the wine dissolved in the longevity pill, so that the disciples and villagers can experience the wonders of the fairy family, and take advantage of this to ask the master to owe the world fireworks here." ”
Mu Tianren smiled and said: "July, I heard that you don't know a word, but you have such a mind, I am very pleased for the teacher. ”
Early the next morning, Li Qiyue said goodbye to his parents and family and went with Mu Tianren. About three miles away from the village, Mu Tianren took out the long sword and threw it in the air, only to see his lips move slightly, the three-foot long sword steeply widened by more than seven inches, hanging from the ground at a foot high, the sound of the dragon roaring and the tiger roaring faintly came from the blade of the sword, he turned sideways and saw Li Qiyue stunned, did not say much, stretched out his hand to support it, Li Qiyue did not move half a step, but he felt that his body fluttered up, and in the blink of an eye, he was already standing on the sword body.
Li Qiyue panicked in his heart, his body shook, and he almost fell to the ground from the sword, but fortunately, Mu Tianren was close to him and grabbed his belt, which made him stabilize his body.
Although it did not fly above the clouds, it looked down and saw that the mountains were as small as possible, and it was still an unattainable peak, and it was like a chicken nest lying on the ground at this time.
Li Qiyue just glanced at it, and then he felt dizzy, and he didn't dare to continue to look closely, his clothes were fluttering, and the wind was hunting, because the wind was urgent, he almost couldn't stand, and at the same time he felt the wind and cold hitting his body, and it seemed that even his five organs were about to freeze. It is strange to see that he will either freeze into an iceman, or fall from his sword, or fall to the ground from a thousand feet in the air, and not fall into a meat patty. At this time, Mu Tianren held his palm on the back of his heart, and Li Qiyue felt a warm current spread from the back of his heart to the limbs of his body, but in a moment, he felt that there was no longer a trace of chill in his body, and at the same time, his body stood firmly on the sword.
Flew for a few days in a row, passing through the barren mountains and mountains, during the occasional rest for a while and then continued to fly the sword, during the break, Mu Tianren meditated, Li Qiyue ate some dry food, three days later, the master and apprentice hiked over the mountains and mountains, almost did not stay for more than half a day, half a month later the two finally came to a valley.
The valley is not big, there is a stream passing by, and there is a large peach forest full of fruits, through the peach forest, and see a bamboo forest, there are a few grass houses scattered in the bamboo forest, when they first appeared in the bamboo forest, there are two figures rushing over, when they see Mu Tianren, the two hurriedly stopped, and said respectfully: "Master-"
"Well, this is the apprentice who was only accepted a few days ago for the teacher, called Li Qiyue, from now on he is your little junior brother, take good care of it. Quanyou, you look for Qin'er, and you will all come to my house in a while, I have something to say. Da Ke, you take Senior Brother July for a walk, arrange a residence, and introduce the situation here by the way. With that, he walked away.
"You're Senior Brother July?"
"Hmm. Are you Senior Brother Dake?" Li Qiyue seemed to be living in a dream, this is where he will practice in the future? While listening to his senior brother's introduction, he peeked around suspiciously.
This place still belongs to Yunyang Mountain, named Qiyun Valley, named after Qiyun Mountain hundreds of miles away, Qiyun Mountain is actually a lonely peak, towering into the sky, Mu Tianren was named after it.
This Qiyun Valley is no different from the valley he has seen, it is not as cloudy and misty as he imagined, there are three or two low thatched huts everywhere, and more than ten acres of crops to be harvested next to the bamboo forest in the distance. The only sign of the immortal family is that there is an acre square medicine garden in the depths of the bamboo forest, and the garden is sparse and sparsely growing uneven medicinal herbs, these medicinal herbs are probably used for alchemy, but in Li Qiyue's eyes, this medicine garden is more like the backyard of the He family in their village, and the He family has a lineage of ancestral medicine Langzhong.
Including Li Qiyue, Mu Tianren has four disciples, all of whom have been accepted within ten years, almost every two or three years, and to his surprise, none of them are Mu Tianren's official disciples, all of them are registered names, Dake's full name is Li Dake, the body is slightly fat, there are not many words, every word must be concise and to the point; the first step just now is the second senior brother He Quanyou, and the other is the third senior sister, named Xue Qin. The three of them were 19, 17, and 15 years old, and Li Qiyue was thirteen years old.
With the help of Li Dake, Li Qiyue soon had a thatched house of his own, a thick layer of straw mattress was spread on the vacant ground, a table with three or two stools, a simple stove, pots and pans, and a futon for meditation.
"Let's go to the master first, probably the second junior brother and the third junior sister have already arrived there. ”
