Chapter 20: First-time Christians

Since the apprenticeship is confirmed, Lin Zhining is not in a hurry, and Zhang Yi's body is too thin, so he needs to eat more meat to replenish himself.

About half a moon, Zhang's body was already well, his body was healed, and the apprenticeship happened to be carried out at the same time.

In half a month, not only did the Zhang family's body be cured, but the Zhang family's mother and son's body recuperated better, and there was some meat under the thin skin.

The biggest change is that Lin Zhining took Xiao Zhang Yi to build a few more rooms in his family's house, and their original one was retained as a firewood house.

Lin Zhining planned to demolish and rebuild it together, but Zhang's mother and son felt that the house recorded their past, and Lin Zhining didn't persuade him much.

Building a house is not a difficult thing for Lin Zhining, there are many big trees in the mountains and forests in this era, and he has also learned carpenter work for a few days since he was a child, although the appearance is not necessarily good-looking, but it is absolutely strong and durable, and this just happened to follow Zhang's thoughts, the poor family did not want the furniture to be stronger.

Because Zhang's family could go to the ground a few days earlier, she couldn't help but step forward to help her when she saw Lin Zhining helping to build the house.

Although Zhang is a woman, she pulls her young son alone, and she can do a lot of work, so Lin Zhining doesn't say much.

He knew that this mother and son had a strong nature, and if he didn't agree to help others, it would inevitably hurt their face.

On this morning, after breakfast, Lin Zhining and Zhang sat on the top, and Xiao Zhang Yi came over with a cup of tea and knelt on the ground with a puff.

Holding the tea above his head, he said, "Master, please drink tea." ”

Lin Zhining took a sip of the teacup with a smile on his face, put it on the table, and said, "When you come to my door today, you must know the origin of what you have learned as a teacher, and abide by our rules. ”

"Yes, the disciple understands, and I ask the master to show me. Xiao Zhang Yi said with a serious face.

"What I learned as a teacher is inherited from the end of the Southern Song Dynasty, and the whole true sect Changchun Ziqiu Zhenren. There is a Huashan faction on the rivers and lakes, which is the inheritance of Qiu Zhenren's younger brother Hao Datong, but it has nothing to do with them, you don't have to pay attention to it when you see you in the future. ”

"There are seven commandments under my sect that you need to keep in mind and not disobey. The first precept is to deceive the teacher and destroy the ancestors, and disrespect the elders; the second precept is to bully the weak and hurt the innocent; the third precept is to be lustful and molest women; the fourth precept is to be jealous and kill each other; the fifth precept is arrogant and offends the same way; the sixth precept is to forget the righteousness and steal property; the seventh precept is to be a bandit and collude with demons. You can remember these seven precepts clearly, but if you violate them, the teacher will not only drive you out of the school, but also recover the master's kung fu. ”

However, it was Lin Zhining who saw that the precepts of Huashan were quite beneficial, so he moved over as they were.

Zhang Yi's face turned grim when he heard this, and he said, "Yes, Master, the disciple has written it down, and he will never dare to disobey it." ”

"Haha, good. From now on, you will be my great disciple. Get up, the ground is too cold to kneel for long. Lin Zhining said with a loud laugh.

He has already probed Zhang Yi in the past few days, and found that he is only lacking in nutrition, his qualifications are extremely good, and this son has outstanding character, which is definitely a good choice for inheriting the exercises.

"I thanked the master. Hearing this, Zhang Yi stood up.

Zhang and he are both happy, now that the apprenticeship is over, the name has been decided, Zhang Yi's future has changed greatly, how can they not be happy.

Zhang's family is idle, and when he saw that his son had successfully apprenticed, he went outside to collect the remaining branches of the house, and he could always make a fire and sell it for money.

Zhang Yi's body has not yet recovered, and he looks thin and thin, but it is not easy to practice martial arts.

Lin Zhining simply taught him to read and write first, play health gossip, and wait for him to recover well, and then pass on his advanced methods before it is too late.

There are many libraries in the city, and there is no shortage of Mongolian textbooks, so Lin Zhining went on a trip and bought a few for Zhang Yi's literacy.

He also bought some pen, ink, paper and inkstone, and he also needed to practice his calligraphy, so he couldn't be unfamiliar with a good hand.

Although Zhang Yi did not have the same adventures as Lin Zhining, he was really much smarter than Lin Zhining when he was a child.

"Three Character Classic" Lin Zhining took him to read it three times, and he was able to recite it aloud by himself, and in less than a month, he was able to recite "Hundred Family Names", "Thousand Character Text", and "Kindergarten Qionglin" one by one, and he was able to write half of the text in it.

A set of gossip slapped soundly and colorfully, and Lin Zhining was a little jealous when he watched it.

Thanks to Lin Zhining's entry into the mountains from time to time to hunt for prey, as well as the tonic Chinese medicine slowly tonic, Zhang's mother and son look no different from ordinary peasant children, and it is not the same as he just saw, a skeleton covered with human skin.

It turned out that Zhang was the daughter of an old pedant, who was pedantic, but also upright, and thanked Zhang Yi's father for his kindness and married Zhang to him. Although Zhang has never studied, he has learned a lot of truths.

At present, although Lin Zhining is Zhang Yi's master, how can she accept Lin Zhining's help with peace of mind, and from time to time she also goes into the mountains to pick up some firewood, or dig up some herbs to supplement her family.

And the cooking skills are excellent, if it weren't for Lin Zhining's martial arts success, I'm afraid he would have gained a lot of weight during this time.

However, seeing the smiles on the faces of their mother and son, Lin Zhining also felt quite happy, and it was always good to be able to help others.

Unknowingly, a few months have passed, and when Lin Zhining met Zhang's mother and son, it was almost the end of the year.

At present, Zhang's health is very good, and he has planted a lot of crops in front of his house, and for farmers, seeing the seeds go to the ground is the most important thing and the beginning of a year's hope.

Zhang Yi has read a lot of Taoist scriptures and Confucian classics, although Lin Zhining has explained the meaning to him clearly, but it is limited to age and knowledge, and he needs to slowly figure it out in the future.

The body is finally polished, and it is time to start the next step of cultivation.
