Qi Yue only felt strange, why was this person called Senior Brother Shen Qing, but when he saw Shen Qing introduce himself, he also hurriedly saluted the other party.

"Oh, is this the master's newly accepted disciple, sure enough, a talent" Seeing the other party praise him like this, Qi Yue also looked a little embarrassed, and hurriedly cast an inquiring glance at Shen Qing.

Shen Qing saw Qi Yue like this, and immediately understood, "Ah, I forgot to introduce you to each other, junior brother, this is your Tan Baishan Tan Senior Brother" Before Shen Qing finished speaking, Tan Baishan shook his head again and again and said: "Hey, where is the senior brother, I am just an outer disciple in the door, I don't deserve the word senior brother, I am older, if you don't dislike it, call me Brother Tan"

Although the other party said so, Qi Yue still said, "I've seen Senior Brother Tan"

"Hey, hey, good" Tan Baishan didn't know why, when he saw Qi Yue calling himself like this, his eyes suddenly moistened, and his speech was a little unsmooth.

Shen Qing seemed to know something when he saw this scene, and in order to ease the atmosphere, he said loudly: "Okay, okay, don't stand at the door, Senior Brother Tan quickly arrange a guest room for us, I'm tired after a day of walking."

Tan Baishan immediately reacted when he heard this, "The guest rooms have already been arranged, come with me" After speaking, he turned around and took the two of them upstairs, Qi Yue and Shen Qing were arranged to Tianzi No. 1 and No. 2, which were the best rooms in the entire inn.

After Tan Baishan arranged the two of them, he said a few words to Shen Qing, and then went to arrange dinner for the two of them first, Qi Yue returned to the room and saw that it was still early, plus there were still a bunch of questions just now, he got up and walked to the door of room No. 1, and knocked on the door, "Knock~~ Is the senior brother asleep?"

There was a sound of footsteps inside, "squeak~~" The door was opened, and Shen Qing was not surprised to see that it was Qi Yue and said: "I knew it was you, come in" welcomed Qi Yue into the house and sat down.

"Senior brother knows so much that I'm coming?" Qi Yue asked.

"Hehe, not only did I know that you were coming, but I also knew that you were here for Senior Brother Tan's affairs, right?" Shen Qing said with a sip of tea.

"Senior brother is really like a god, I wonder if senior brother can answer for junior brother?"

"Well, where should I start at this time?" Shen Qing pondered for a moment and said, "Then I'll start with this Liuyun Inn."

"Senior brother, do you know where the money in my door comes from?"

Although Qi Yue had thought about this question before, he didn't delve into it, and when he saw Shen Qing suddenly ask today, he didn't speculate, and said directly, "I really don't know, please tell Senior Brother"

Shen Qing nodded and said: "There are no more than a few sources of funds for the sect in the world, one is to set up a business shop with the help of the forces in the sect, the second is to monopolize the local industry like the Caoyun gang, and I have no special products in the Liuyun Sect, plus there is no Caoyun near the suburbs, so I can only rely on establishing some shops to earn funds for cultivating disciples."

Because there are few disciples in our sect, there are not many industries, but some inns, restaurants, etc. have been set up in some towns around the suburbs and counties, and this Liuyun Inn is one of them."

Hearing this, Qi Yue finally understood, why this inn is named after Liuyun, you must know that people in the rivers and lakes are very taboo for others to use their own names, and there will be countless deaths and injuries in the rivers and lakes every year because of the problem of name, and there must be a reason why this Liuyun Inn dares to open at the foot of Liuyunmen Mountain.

Shen Qing saw that Qi Yue understood, and continued: "And Senior Brother Tan just now is also an unfortunate person, he was originally from this suburban county, because there was a group of mountain bandits on Liuyun Mountain, who often went down the mountain to rob their homes, and their parents were killed by the mountain bandits, so they became orphans and begged on the street for a living.

It wasn't until the master came here that he killed all the mountain bandits and founded Liuyunmen here, after hearing about it, Senior Brother Tan came to the mountain to become a disciple of Liuyunmen in order to repay his kindness, and tried his best for the door, but unfortunately Senior Brother Tan's talent was not very good, although he persevered to the end, but because he could not cultivate the fusion vein, he could only be turned away, and Senior Brother Tan, who learned the news, did not give up, although he failed to become a disciple in the door, but when he heard that there was a lack of miscellaneous servants in the door, he took the initiative to ask the master to let him stay.

The master saw that he was determined, and he couldn't bear it, so he left him behind, and this stay was seven years, and in the past seven years, Senior Brother Tan got up early every day to take care of the door up and down in an orderly manner, and the relationship with all the brothers in the door was very good, and over time, everyone was commensurate with the brothers.

Later, the master saw that he had a good ability to stay in the door as a handyman, so he asked him to go down the mountain and start to be in charge of the door industry, more than ten years have passed, the door industry in the hands of Tan Brother is getting stronger and stronger, from the beginning of one or two, to the surrounding counties and towns have my Liuyunmen industry.

Later, when the master saw that he was doing his best for the door, he accepted him as the outer disciple in charge of the trivial affairs in the door in the future, and this is probably the case, do you have anything else to ask?"

After Qi Yue knew this, he suddenly had a sense of awe for the senior brother Tan just now, different from the respect for the senior brother's martial arts and generosity, and different from the respect for the master as a teacher, he was able to contribute his strength to the sect without any name, without any regrets, and even just because of his senior brother, he became in tears, such a person made people feel very admired.

Suddenly thinking of something, Qi Yue asked Shen Qing: "Senior brother, you just said that the master accepted this Senior Brother Tan as an outer disciple, what is an outer disciple?"

Shen Qing thought for a while and replied: "Actually, the slightly larger sects in the various sects and sects in this river and lake will say that the disciples are divided into three, six, nine and so on, among which the outer disciples have the lowest status, and even in some of the main sects, the disciples of the outer sects are not considered formal disciples, and their main role is to strengthen the momentum of the sect, as well as deal with some trivial matters in the sect, etc., most of these people are roots, poor talents, and have no great achievements, but they are unwilling to leave, so they voluntarily become outer disciples, in order to be able to learn a trick and a half in the sect."

The outer disciples are the inner disciples from above, and almost all the inner disciples are the backbone of the sect, they are more numerous, and unlike the outer disciples, the inner disciples are all strictly assessed, talented, and not comparable to the outer disciples, and have a high status in the sect, and if they work hard enough, they may be able to be accepted by the elders of the sect and become a personal disciple.

The personal disciple is the elder or head of the sect who personally accepts and teaches the disciples, inherits his mantle, and may become the next generation of elders or heads, and has the highest status among the disciples in the sect, so if the inner disciple is the foundation. That personal disciple is the pillar, now you understand?"

"So that's the case, what kind of disciples are we in the sect?"

"Hehe, there are few disciples under my Liuyun Sect, all of them are taught by the master himself, because of this, our brothers are all personal disciples, and in the future, after the sect grows, it is impossible for the master to teach one by one, and then it will be necessary to divide the outer door and the inner door specifically. ”

After Qi Yue heard this, all his doubts were dissipated, and at this moment, there was a knock on the door, "Senior Brother Shen, I'm here to bring you food" It turned out to be Tan Baishan.

The two glanced at each other, Shen Qing got up and went to open the door, "Senior Brother Tan, it's really troublesome for you, just let Xiao Er do these things, you don't have to send them over in person."

Tan Baishan smiled, "It's not troublesome, it's not troublesome, Senior Brother Shen finally went down the mountain, how can I not entertain well, hey, Senior Brother is also here, just eat together"

Seeing that Qi Yue was also in the room, Tan Baishan seemed even more happy, and with a wave of his hand, the little guy behind him brought all the plates of delicacies to the dining table, signaled them to retreat, and closed the door, obviously this Senior Brother Tan and Shen Qing are very familiar, and they are not polite, after putting the dishes and chopsticks away, he beckoned the two to sit down, and he also sat down to eat together.

Dinner. "Come, Senior Brother Shen, we haven't seen each other for more than two years, I respect you for this cup" After speaking, he did it first, although Shen Qing was not good at drinking, but seeing him so bold, he didn't say much, he picked up the cup and drank it all, and then the two kept pushing the cup and changing the lamp, during which they chatted about some old things in the past, Shen Qing is usually more serious, but a few cups of belly are also warm.

In this way, the two of them drank and chatted one cup after another, and before they knew it, it was late at night, seeing that both of them were drunk and unconscious, Qi Yue looked helpless, "What is this, senior brother wake up, wake up, wake up" stretched out his hand and shook Shen Qing.

"Hmm... I...... I can still drink, come, Senior Brother Tan, cheers" said and raised the cup in his hand to signal to Tan Baishan, but the cup was already empty.

"Hey, it seems that I'm really drunk" called a few more times, but there was still no response, and in desperation, I went out and asked someone to help the two of them back to bed and sleep.

Seeing that both of them fell asleep, Qi Yue, who was exhausted, also went back to the room to sleep.

When Qi Yue woke up the next day, it was already three poles in the sun, looking at the sun outside the window was almost noon, Qi Yue secretly shouted "Oh no, I overslept, I have to go in a hurry today, why didn't my senior brother come to call me?"

Hurriedly put on his clothes, pushed open the door and walked out, casually stopping Xiao Er, who happened to be the one who received them yesterday, "Hey, little second brother, where is my senior brother?"

"It turned out to be Shaoxia, back to Shaoxia, Shen Daxia and the shopkeeper were drunk yesterday, and now they haven't woken up, if Shaoxia has something, I can go and call the door" Xiao Er finished speaking and was going to knock on Shen Qing's door.

"Forget it, I'll come," he said, stepping forward and knocking on the door, "Senior brother, senior brother, are you up?" shouted while listening to the movement inside.

After knocking twice, I heard the footsteps inside, and after the door opened, Shen Qing said with a confused expression after a hangover: "Senior brother, what's the matter so early?"

"Senior brother, it's still early, look at the sky, it's almost noon, we should be on our way!"

"What!" Shen Qing heard Qi Yue shout, and he also came to his senses, and looked back out the window, and sure enough, the scorching sun hanging high showed one thing, and it was almost noon now.
