Chapter 3 The Sophistication and Nobility

Ma Fei saw that Zhang Fan's face remained unchanged, and said loudly: "Apprentice Ma Fei to meet the master, please ask the master to be an apprentice." ”

How could Zhang Fan accept an apprentice, he is only refining his internal organs now and cultivating in the late stage, and he can still be regarded as a teenager, not to mention that he is still the leader of the True Dragon Sect, no matter how he says, he will not recklessly accept a disciple who was insulting him a second ago.

He thought to himself: "I won't accept this Ma Fei as an apprentice, it's just that he is the youngest son of the city lord of the Great Wilderness City, if I reject him in front of so many people, then I may have a grudge against the city lord of the Great Wilderness." I am now the leader of the True Dragon Sect, and I have to consider the affairs of the True Dragon Sect in everything I do, this Great Desolate City is only separated from Shuoyue City by a crescent river, if I offend the Great Desolate City Lord, then the True Dragon Sect that has just been formed will be devastated and attacked. Although I am not afraid of the Great Wilderness City Lord, I can also assassinate him, but the True Dragon Sect has become the target of everyone, this is not what I want, I have to think of a way to get the best of both worlds. Thinking of this, he said expressionlessly: "You kid, you were still insulting me just now, and now you want to worship me as a teacher, no way!"

When Ma Fei heard this, he secretly screamed in his heart, thinking: "I just came out to play a big white, who let your brother say that I am outdated." Besides, there is a problem with the two of you, and I'm not wrong. My cultivation is so low, I am often looked down upon by my brothers and sisters, today I finally met a young master, how can I worship him as a teacher, otherwise I will be scolded by my parents every day, and I will have no face in front of my brothers. But I really didn't do it right, and I should think of a way. Thinking of this, he said, "Master, you must accept the apprentice." When the apprentice was full moon, there was an immortal master who calculated a hexagram for the apprentice. The immortal master said that when the apprentice was sixteen years old, he would meet a noble man, who was dressed in white. Uninhibited, handsome and chic. It is a heavenly immortal, noble and unparalleled. Master, you are the noble man of the apprentice's life, you accept the apprentice. ”

Zhang Fan saw that Ma Fei's face was full of fanaticism, and he seemed to confide in his true feelings, but when he heard him talking nonsense, he thought: "You little thing, Lao Tzu is an expert in lying, in his previous life." I didn't make excuses for not handing in my homework, skipping class, or sleeping lazy, and now you are playing with a big knife in front of Guan Gong and getting an ax in front of Lu Ban, which is considered unlucky. He smiled and said, "Boy, why do you only pat on the back? Since you met the immortal master when you were full moon, why don't you worship him as a teacher? Are you insulting me and saying that my vision is not as good as that of the immortal master?"

When Ma Fei heard this, his face flushed. I lamented in my heart: "Why is this young master so smart? When I used to talk to my grandparents and my parents, they all believed it to be true, how could this not work for him? I can't make a bad impression on him anymore." He then cried: "Master, the immortal master said that the apprentice has no master-apprentice fate with him. And the apprentice has a deep fate with the master, and the master will definitely surpass the immortal master in the future. As long as you accept me as an apprentice, the apprentice is willing to give the apprentice's horse farm by the Crescent River and the old wine that he has collected for fifteen years to the apprentice as an apprenticeship. ”

Zhang Fan heard this. I thought to myself: "This kid is really full of tricks, he actually wants to bribe me." How can it be. He said lightly: "No! I don't have a master-apprentice relationship with you." As he spoke, he rode away.

Seeing this, Ma Fei was anxious. I thought to myself: "Hey, why is this master so unreasonable, is it just because I ran into him, he sentenced me to death?" Hey, they all blame me for being reckless, and tell Martha to provoke him, it seems that I have only a trick." When he thought of this, his face turned pale at once, and he threw himself on the dirty street, crying out in a loud and bitter voice: "Master, you must take in the apprentice, if you don't accept the apprentice, the apprentice will not live to be seventeen years old." Master, the apprentice is sincere, so you can accept the apprentice. Master, if you don't accept the apprentice, the apprentice will kneel on the ground and kowtow to you until you are satisfied. As he spoke, he kept kowtowing to Zhang Fan on the dirty street, as if he would not stop if he did not worship Zhang Fan as a teacher.

When the surrounding people saw this, they immediately talked about it. Someone said: "The young city lord turned out to be a filial son, in order to apprentice, he actually put down his noble identity, kowtowed in front of the public, and gave a rich apprenticeship ceremony, which is really amazing." Someone scolded in a low voice: "Everyone is the same with this gentleman, they are arrogant and domineering, they oppress us, and even the masters are not uncommon with his apprenticeship." Another person said: "Hey, that young master is probably going to anger the city lord." It looks like we're going to have a hard time again. Everyone had different opinions, and the surroundings suddenly became lively.

"Ah, the young city lord has fainted, save him quickly!" suddenly an exclamation sounded from the crowd. Then there was a loud uproar.

Zhang Fan was shocked when he heard this, he really didn't expect this gentleman to be so resolute, and thought: "It seems that I have to give him an explanation, otherwise I really can't say it." But this kid is forcing me so much, but he can't let his plan succeed. Thinking of this, he turned around and said, "I really can't take anyone as an apprentice now, but ......"

"Really, master!" Before Zhang Fan could finish speaking, Ma Fei exclaimed. Then he rolled in a carp, immediately got up from the ground, and said loudly: "Thank you master for accepting me as an apprentice, Ma Fei to meet the master." ”

A sly smile flashed on Zhang Fan's face, and then said, "If your right back is good, I can consider accepting you as a disciple in the sect." As soon as Ma Fei heard that the master wanted to accept him as a disciple, he had already ignored the words "good appearance", "consideration" and "disciple in the sect", and immediately thanked him: "Apprentice Ma Fei visits the master." Zhang Fan smiled: "I don't accept you as a disciple now, but consider accepting you as a disciple in the future." Don't call someone a master. ”

When Ma Fei heard this, he didn't care at all, and said with a smile: "Anyway, you will always accept me as an apprentice in the future, and it's not the same for an apprentice to call you a master sooner or later." Zhang Fan smiled helplessly: "I won't care about you because you called me a master earlier, don't bother me now." Ma Fei said: "Master, don't be stingy, the apprentice will definitely show himself well in the future, and let the master accept me as an apprentice." Of course Zhang Fan ignored him as a follower.

"Haha......" Suddenly, a rough laugh came from a distance. Zhang Fan raised his eyes and saw that the person who came was a sturdy middle-aged man wearing a gold-inlaid purple brocade robe. He had a white face and a small beard, and wore a sable-fur hat studded with rubies on his head. At this time, he was surrounded by a large group of maids and housekeepers and strode towards this side.

As soon as Ma Fei saw the visitor, he immediately shouted, "Dad, the child has worshiped the master today!" Seeing this, everyone around knelt down. Qi Qi greeted and said, "The grass people meet the city lord." The man laughed loudly and said, "Everyone, please get up quickly, Ma can't afford it." ”

This purple-robed middle-aged man, known as the "City Lord", is the City Lord of the Great Wilderness City. Ma Fei's father, Ma Yong. He had just heard from his subordinates that a noble man had come to the city, so he hurried over.

Everyone around was stunned when they heard Ma Yong's words, and then thanked them: "Thank you City Lord!" Of course, Zhang Fan and the others would not have visited him before, after all, Zhang Fan's status was not inferior to him, and he had nothing to do with him.

At this time, Ma Yong walked quickly towards Zhang Fan, and at the same time hugged his fists and smiled: "Haha, it turned out that Doctor Zhang was driving close to my Great Wilderness City." It's really a rare guest of my Great Wilderness City, Ma Yong, the city lord of the Lower Great Wilderness City, brought his unfilial son Ma Fei to Doctor Zhang. ”

Although Zhang Fan was a little puzzled in his heart why Ma Yong personally ran to this messy downtown to meet him for a little thing, he couldn't sit on the horse and ignore others when he saw him saluting him. So he immediately dismounted, stepped forward to clasp his fists and saluted with a smile: "It turned out that the Lord of Ma Cheng was coming, and Zhang was disappointed, haha." ”

Ma Yong looked at the white-robed brocade in front of him. The young man with the giant sword on his back thought to himself: "I didn't expect what Ma Ying said to be true, the divine doctor who has treated hundreds of thousands of people in Shuoyue City in just half a day is really a young man, and my unsuccessful son actually bumped into him in a daze." And this happened. It's just that this young man is a little rude, and as soon as he came to my Great Wilderness City, he beat my family, but his cultivation is profound. It is said that he is the owner of the Qinglong Village, and he is more likely to be the noble son of a certain big family. But I can't annoy him, especially if I come to ask him for something today. He thought of this. He quickly stepped forward to Zhang Fan's side, with a smile on his face, and said loudly: "Haha, since Doctor Zhang came to Ma's great desert city and took children as apprentices, how can Ma let you stay on this street? ”

Zhang Fan saw that Ma Yong invited himself to his house as a guest, not mentioning that he had injured his family, and even brazenly said that he had accepted his youngest son as an apprentice, thinking: "This Ma Yong is indeed not a simple commodity, he doesn't even dislike the dirty streets, and when he came here, he invited himself to his house as a guest in front of so many people, but it made it difficult for me to shirk." What is the purpose of his behavior? But how can I, the head of the sect, let him succeed lightly. Thinking of this, he laughed and said: "The city lord of Ma is too polite, Zhang came to you, but he beat Ling Gongzi's servant, and in the face of Ling Gongzi's request, he did not accept him as an apprentice, you greeted Zhang so warmly, how could Zhang be embarrassed to disturb the city lord?"

Ma Yong's heart twitched slightly when he heard this, and he thought: "This kid is really smart-toothed, he refuses to let others take advantage of him, if he were someone else, Lao Tzu would not have come to invite you with a cheeky and low voice, but the strange disease is very strange, and the doctors are helpless." So he smiled and said: "What does Doctor Zhang say, the inferior son collided with you and asked you to accept him as an apprentice, but it was too much, but you were broad-minded, and finally accepted him, although it was said that he would be accepted as an apprentice in the future, but sooner or later he would be a master and apprentice." As for the two unsuccessful family members, it goes without saying. I also hope that Doctor Zhang will ignore his previous suspicions and go to Ma's house to sit down. ”

When the surrounding people heard this, they all made a noise. One said, "If the lord of the city could invite me so warmly, I would have dreamed of laughing." The other person said sarcastically: "Little San, then you should hurry home and dream." The crowd spoke like this, one after another, and the uproar was unbearable.

Zhang Fan saw that Ma Yong was cunning and refused to say the purpose, he was not an idler, how could he go with him casually, so he politely refused: "Zhang is grateful to the city lord for his kindness, but Zhang has something important to do here, and he can't delay, but Zhang is rude." ”

Ma Yong was helpless, although he didn't plan to say privacy, but he had to say his purpose. He smiled bitterly and said: "Doctor Zhang, one of Ma's family members is seriously ill, Ma really can't, I heard that Doctor Zhang can rejuvenate with his hands, but today I want to delay Doctor Zhang." ”

As soon as Ma Yong finished speaking, everyone was in a commotion again.

When Zhang Fan heard this, he suddenly realized, and he still had doubts in his heart, thinking: "Who is so sick in this old man's family that he actually let a dignified city lord come to beg him in a low voice?"

At this time, Ma Fei saw that Zhang Fan was still hesitating, his face showed an anxious look, and he begged loudly: "Master, please save me......" Before he could finish speaking, Ma Yong immediately shouted: "Fei'er, stop!" Suddenly the noise of the surrounding people became even worse. (To be continued......)
