Chapter 222: Master-Apprentice Love
Nine Mountains - Kirin Peak
Kirin Peak is the shortest of the nine peaks of Kuju Mountain. However, because this peak is deeply surrounded by other peaks, there are many fewer days in this peak than the other eight peaks, so it is not very suitable for human habitation, and people who live here are people with a certain amount of cultivation. And there are many exotic plants and creatures that are not found on this peak. Because of this, it adds a lot of mystery to the warriors who inhabit this mountain. The person in charge of this mountain peak is Mu Qing Dao people, and I don't know why Mu Qing Dao people rarely accept apprentices, so he has the least apprentices among his peers of the Nine Sects, which also makes this mountain a lot more deserted.
At this time, in a spacious meadow of Qilin Peak, there was an old man in a gray Taoist robe, his eyes closed, meditating.
"Master, Senior Brother Long has come to see you!" a young man in Taoist clothes walked up to Mu Qing Dao Ren and said, this person was Mu Xiu, the youngest disciple of Mu Qing Dao Ren.
Long Wu was standing behind Mu Xiu, he took a step forward and said to Mu Qing Daoren, "Master!"
The old man slowly opened his eyes and said, "General Long! Mu Qing Daoren saw the dragon mist and said to him lightly.
"It's been a long time since I've been here to see you, you're in good health these days!" Long Wu continued.
"What is the matter with you coming to me today?" Mu Qing Daoren slowly stood up, looked at Long Wu and said.
Long Wu hesitated for a moment and said to Mu Qing Daoren, "I want to become stronger! ”
Hearing Long Wu's words, Mu Qing Daoren said with a smile: "General Long said that he was laughing! What ability do I have to teach you! Now that I am old, I can't remember many things!"
Hearing Mu Qingdao's words, Long Wu knelt down and said, "Master, don't do this! I know you're still angry with me." ”
In fact, ten years ago, Long Wu was originally a beginner disciple of Mu Qing Dao, but later Long Wu disobeyed his master's order and married Shangguan Xiu, the daughter of a famous beast tamer, which made Mu Qing Dao very angry. In the end, he was expelled from the division. It seems that he was too disappointed in Dragon Mist at that time, and more than ten years have passed since this incident, but Mu Qingdao has not let him return to his door. Every time the dragon mist visits him. He has an attitude of rejection of people thousands of miles away. But strange to say, I don't know why Mu Qingdao people have a special hatred for the Shangguan family, a hatred that can't find the reason.
Seeing the somewhat sad expression on Long Wu's face, Mu Qing Daoren said, "General Long, do you know why I accepted you as an apprentice among many disciples before?"
"I know that the master rarely accepts apprentices. You took me as an apprentice because you took pity on me as an orphan, and I have always been grateful to the master for his kindness. ”
Long Wu paused for a moment and continued, "You know what! I always hoped that the reason I could become your apprentice was not because I was pitiful, but because you were proud of me!"
"General Dragon. You're thinking wrong. The old man is not so noble! I have never pitied you again. I accepted you because I thought you were a martial arts talent. In this murderous world, there are orphans everywhere. If I had taken pity on someone and taken him as an apprentice, my Qilin Peak would not be what it is now! I did think you were a creative talent. Mu Qingdao said.
Hearing Mu Qingdao's words, Long Wu was obviously surprised. Because when he first entered the Ninefold Sect, many of the elders of the Ninefold Sect thought that he was not talented. Therefore, Long Wu has always had low self-esteem, and he is also an ordinary disciple in the Ninefold Sect. It wasn't until he met Mu Qing Dao that his life changed dramatically. Mu Qingdao Daoren is a very powerful martial artist. He can be ranked in the top ten in the Ninefold Sect, so many disciples of the Ninefold Sect want to worship him as a teacher. But Mu Qingdao's personality is a little eccentric. He rarely accepts apprentices, and it is very difficult to enter his door. So when Long Wu entered the door of the Muqing Daoist, many disciples who were jealous of him also pointed fingers behind his back, saying that he was pretending to be pitiful and entered the door of the Muqing Daoist. Most of the disciples of the Ninefold Sect, including Long Mist, also believed that Mu Qing Dao people had taken pity on this stupid orphan because they had taken pity on him as an apprentice.
"If you talk about qualifications alone, Lin Ba, who is the same general as you. He Xiong and the others are far superior to you. But at that time you had a very precious thing, and that was that you were not greedy and **. These are very important for a warrior, so I took you at that time. But you later joined the Ninefold Army. When I was competing for the position of general of the Ninth Heavy Army, I saw a kind of ** from you, and when I married Shangguan Xiu, I saw another greed from you. ** and greed have appeared, then I will no longer be your master. After speaking, Mu Qing Daoren turned his back to the dragon mist.
Long Wu was very sad when he saw Mu Qingdao turn around. After more than ten years, the master who raised him since he was a child, his closest relatives would treat him like this, and he didn't understand that after he became a general, the people around him praised Mu Qingdao for teaching a good apprentice, why was the master dissatisfied. Could it be that his ** really made the master feel undenied? Or has he changed?
He did all this to get the master's approval. He wasn't wrong. Thinking of this, Long Wu said to Mu Qing Daoren, "Master, I don't understand why you are against me competing for the rank of the Ninth Heavy Army. I don't understand why you object to me marrying Shangguan Xiu. You know that Shangguanxiu and I have been good since childhood, and you also know that I have always liked Shangguanxiu. And you also said that Shangguan Xiu is a very good girl. Why can't I have it? Don't you want to see your apprentices happy? Don't you want to see your apprentices get ahead!"
"You can compete for the general for Shangguan Xiu. You can also join their family's camp and become a pawn of the Shangguan family. This kind of dragon mist feels so strange to me. Do you think I can be happy? I hope that my apprentice can be a light in this troubled world, not a pawn in the family's struggle for power. I don't want to see you again!" As he spoke, Mu Qingdao's smiling face immediately turned blue, and after speaking, Mu Qingdao waved his hand and motioned for Long Wu to leave.
Mu Xiu, who had been standing next to Mu Qingdao Daoren, saw Mu Qingdao Daoren's expression, and said to Long Wu: "Senior Brother Long, you better go back first!"
After a while, Long Wu said to Mu Qing Daoren, "Master, that disciple will go back first today." I'll visit you another day. After saying that, Long Wu got up and left the Qilin Peak where the Mu Qing Dao people were located.
When Long Wu left, Mu Xiu asked Mu Qing Daoren, "Master, why are you like this. You also know that it's not Senior Brother Long's fault!"
Mu Qing Daoren thought for a while and asked Mu Xiu, "Do you know why I accept so few apprentices?"
Seeing that Mu Xiu didn't answer, Mu Qing Daoist continued: "That is the exercise that should be used to cultivate my lineage. It is necessary to have no distracting thoughts in the mind, and those who are eager to make progress cannot cultivate. Unstable minds can easily lead to death. Now the mentality of Dragon Mist is very dangerous. I don't want to see that happen. Have you done what I asked you to do?"
Mu Xiu said, "I have already handed over the things to Shangguan Xiu according to the master's instructions. ”
"Okay, then you can go back too! I want to be alone!" said Mu Qingdao.
"Yes, master!" After speaking, Mu Xiu also turned around and left.
Mu Xiu, who has been with Mu Qingdao people for many years, can see that what his master said at this time is not everything, it seems that the master is hiding something. Moreover, the master-apprentice relationship between his master and Senior Brother Longwu is a bit special, which makes him have many questions. (To be continued......)
