5. Entering the Immortal Mountain for the first time
The green smoke curls like a ribbon lingering on the mountainside, and there are clouds and mist on the mountainside of which mountain in the world, only the "highest in the world" Jiutian Mountain.
It is now early in the morning, the morning light is faint, and the morning mist is as thick as cotton wool, as it has been for thousands of years in the past, covering the sword sect, showing even more immortal style.
On the martial arts training ground, there are already many disciples practicing. They held their swords in one hand, and every movement was very slow, and every time they came out of the sword, they were so weak that I wondered if they had been forced to stay up all night for half a month.
"From today onwards, the two of you, like all your brothers and sisters, will come here every morning for morning exercises. A middle-aged man with a stubble face said in a commanding tone.
"Yes, master. Tianshu and Qing'er agreed in unison.
Today, just a quarter of an hour ago, they officially entered the Nine Heavens Sword Sect. Although the family had already told them about it, it happened a bit suddenly.
At that time, it was still the middle of the night, and Tianshu and Qing'er, who were sleeping, were woken up separately, and the sleepy-eyed two were told to go to Jiutian Mountain to apprentice.
"When is it not good to worship the apprentice, you have to go like this in the middle of the night!" the two muttered on the side.
Grandpa stroked a head with one hand and sighed silently, "Okay, don't be disgusted, people are waiting for us, so I'm embarrassed to let an old man wait for you in the middle of the night, right?" After speaking, without waiting for the two little ghosts to reply, he grabbed one in one hand and took off.
Almost instantly, Tianshu and Qing'er rubbed their eyes at the same time. They often look up in the courtyard to see this towering mountain with no end, and they have also heard that this sword sect is halfway up the mountain, and they also know that grandpa can rise in the air and ride the wind, but even so, halfway up the mountain, it is at least several miles in the air, how can it be possible to reach it in the blink of an eye!
Now they are fully conscious.
Tianshu looked around and found that it was full of books, neatly placed on the shelves, and at the very back of the pile of books, there was a couch, on which sat a white-haired old man with his eyes closed.
"Little junior brother, you're here. The white-haired old man slowly opened his eyes, although the light was dim, but he could not blur the eyes of the god in the slightest, as if they were a distant lighthouse in the darkness.
"Senior brother, I haven't seen you for many years, everything is okay?" Qingchen clasped his hands into fists and bowed slightly.
"Hehe," the white-haired old man smiled and slowly stood up and walked towards Qingchen, "This is your grandson and granddaughter, right?"
"Exactly," Qingchen said with a smile, "Senior Brother has the cheekiness to honor the original gift to Senior Brother." You two, you haven't come to salute yet, this is the head of the Nine Heavens Sword Sect, a Qingyu Daoist. ”
Tianshu and Qing'er stepped forward and shook each other deeply.
Qingyu smiled, "No courtesy." Rest assured, I am the head of the faction, of course, my words count. I think Nian'er was like this back then, he was probably not as old as them at that time, ......" As she spoke, Qingyu sighed softly: "It's really like a shuttle of time, in the blink of an eye, Nian'er's children are already so old." Although we are cultivators, our lifespans are much longer than ordinary people, but after all, we are not heavenly immortals, and we will die of old age one day. ”
"Hehe, senior brother, it seems that you are really a little old, and you are becoming more and more sentimental. In fact, the Tao is natural, birth, old age, sickness and death are the fixed number of people, but before death, you can fulfill the greatest wish in this life, and if you die, you can also smile Jiuquan......" Speaking of this, the two old men looked at each other and smiled bitterly.
Friends in this life, of course, have the secrets and tacit understanding that they still exist until death.
"Grandpa, you don't look old at all. Qing'er's sugar-like voice came from the side.
This is true, in addition to the white hair, Qingyu not only has no wrinkles on her face, but her skin is more like that of a twenty-year-old young man. This is much better than cleaning dust, which may have something to do with the fact that Qingchen is running around all year round.
"Haha, the girl's mouth is so sweet, what's her name?"
"My name is Qing'er, and the sky is clear. ”
Qingyu smiled and nodded to her, then turned to look at Tianshu.
Tianshu clenched his fists and bowed: "Meet the grandfather in charge, my name is Tianshu." ”
"Tianshu ......" Qingyu looked at Tianshu and recited it silently a few times, "Sure enough, people are like their names, different from the world." ”
"The grandfather of the head has won the award. ”
Qingyu nodded with a smile and said to Qingchen: "Hehe, okay, junior brother, I will deal with this matter, you can rest assured." ”
"Well, thank you, Senior Brother. ”
"Okay, I'll deal with the matter of these two little babies today, and you come back tomorrow at this time, and we'll talk about it later. ”
"Hehe, senior brother, see you tomorrow. After speaking, he shook slightly, and then disappeared into nothingness.
"Two little babies," Qingyu sat on the couch, beckoned to them, and motioned for them to come over, "Wait a minute, your master will come, call me the head master in front of outsiders, and when no one is around, call me the head of the house, hehe." ”
Qing'er jumped next to Qingyu, reached out and stroked the white beard of the master, and smiled mischievously, "Yes, grandpa the master." ”
"Hmm...... Grandpa, I have something to ask for......" Tianshu was deeply troubled.
"Oh, what's the matter? ”
"I also have a brother, and I beg my grandfather to allow him to live with us in the Sword Sect. ”
"He's actually a very cute little wolf. Qing'er hurriedly added that if she really couldn't see every day for ten days and half a month, she herself would miss it very, very much.
"Hehe, what's so difficult about this, tomorrow I will ask your grandfather to bring it. He paused, "Alright, your master is here." ”
As soon as the words fell, there was a knock at the door. After the head of the house agreed, a tall and strong figure walked in, and suddenly felt that the room was even more crowded.
Dahan was deeply stunned and said, "Master, call the apprentice early in the morning, is there anything urgent going on?"
The head waved his hand and said, "Nothing else, send you two apprentices, are you willing?"
Dahan glanced at the two people beside him, "Master's order, I must do my best." ”
"Hehe, Qin Guang'er, I know you have doubts in your heart. I'll just tell you that their surname is Tian. Then his gaze turned to Tianshu and Qing'er, who were standing on the side, "Two little babies, he is my apprentice, his surname is Qin Mingguang, and his Taoist name is Ning Shang." Would you like him to be your master?"
The two glanced at each other meaningfully and replied, "Thank you, Master Master." Then he turned to face Qin Guang, knelt on the ground, and said while kowtowing, "Disciple Tianshu." "Disciple Tianqing'er. "Meet the master. ”
Qin Guang straightened up and said to them with an expressionless face, "Since you have worshiped me as a teacher, I hope you can be prepared to endure hardships, I am recognized as the strictest in the entire Sword Sect. ”
The brother and sister lowered their heads, secretly glanced at each other more meaningfully, and replied, "Yes, I will obey the teacher's orders." ”
Qingyu nodded with a smile, paused, and said to the two: "If anyone else in the sect asks about your identity, you can answer that it is from me." After speaking, his eyes fell on Qin Guang.
Qin Guang hugged his fists and said, "Disciple understands. ”
Qingyu waved his sleeves and said, "Okay, it's okay." Qin Guang, you can take them to take care of it. ”
Qin Guangzuo said goodbye, and when he closed the door, Qingyu's voice sounded in his ears (of course, only he could hear it), telling him to come back tomorrow night.
Qin Guang took Tianshu and Qing'er, didn't say anything all the way, and walked straight to a compound. The outermost plaque of the compound reads "Tianqian Yuan", and if you walk a few steps inside, you will find that the courtyard is separated by a road, and there is a plaque of "Big Bamboo Garden" in the depths on one side, and "Little Bamboo Garden" in the depths on the other side.
Obviously, the area of the big bamboo garden is much larger than that of the small bamboo garden.
Qin Guang led them into the small bamboo garden.
A very thin young man was sweeping the floor, and when he saw Qin Guang coming, he stopped what he was doing and called out very respectfully, "Master." ”
Qin Guang came to him and asked, "Have you finished your morning class?"
The emaciated boy replied sincerely.
Qin Guang turned sideways slightly, revealing two figures, and said to him: "Two newcomers are here today, and I will arrange them for you." ”
The emaciated young man first looked at Qing'er, unconsciously smirked on his face, and then turned his eyes to look at Tianshu, and the whole person was stunned.
"Ahem!" the cough was like a slap in the face, causing him to wake up suddenly. "Is there a problem?" Qin Guang asked.
"I didn't ...... No, don't worry, master, leave it to me. ”
Qin Guang glanced at him, turned to leave, and after taking a few steps, he shook his head unconsciously.
The thin young man saw Qin Guang walking away, so he gasped roughly, then straightened his chest again, showed a confident look, patted his chest and said: "My name is Hou Xin, I am your third senior brother, if you want to know, just ask me." After saying that, he himself laughed unconsciously, because he used to be called "junior brother", but now he is finally "senior brother".
Tianshu pulled Qing'er, who was really looking left and right, a few steps forward, walked up to Hou Xin, and said, "Thank you, Third Senior Brother." My name is Tianshu, and she is my sister Qing'er. ”
"So she's your sister, hehe. Hou Xin glanced at Qing'er secretly, and then grinned as if he had lost his soul, grabbing the back of his head.
Qing'er walked up, frowned and said, "I said senior brother, you must always look like a senior brother as a senior brother, the master asked you to arrange us, should you be ready to arrange for us to watch you smirk here?"
"Hehe, gaffe, let the little junior sister see the joke. Hou Xin smiled awkwardly, "Okay, come with me, I'll take you to the place where you live first." ”
Tianshu just looked around and found that this place was almost built on bamboo, which really deserved the name "Bamboo Garden".
The walkways here are all corridors vacated from the ground, and they are not complicated, and they are in the shape of "Tian". Hou Xin introduced them: "Walk through the hall, and the room at the end is the master's room. The master is not smiling, he is more sincere and strict in trouble, so we don't have a teacher. Speaking of which, I wonder if you know the rules of this door?"
Tianshu and Qing'er shook their heads.
Hou Xin raised his head and patted his chest and said, "Hehe, as a senior brother, I'll talk to you about it." This sect is a monastic sect, the Tao is natural, and there is yin and yang in nature, of which men are yang and women are yin, so this door can be married. But only one person can't. ”
