Chapter 4: Master Wang's Request

After eating, Zhang Fan lay on the bed, although it was already dark, Zhang Fan did not feel sleepy.

The other two children who lived in the house with Zhang Fan were named Wang Hao and Da Niu, all of whom Zhang Fan knew when he ate with them before, but as for the rest, Zhang Fan didn't know.

Now there was a slight snoring sound from the nose of the child named Da Niu and Wang Hao, obviously he had fallen asleep, only Zhang Fan couldn't sleep in his heart.

Zhang Fan was worried about his father, I don't know if he has gone back, is he still waiting for him in the city, it is the first time he is so far away from home, Zhang Fan suddenly misses his father.

When I came to this place called Guidao Sect, I didn't become a disciple of Guidao Sect, but I was accepted as an apprentice by this person called Master Wang, and I don't know what this master will teach me next.

Recalling that when he was accepted as an apprentice by Master Wang during the day, the process seemed to be too smooth and simple, and it was not as troublesome as in the main hall at all, which was somewhat beyond Zhang Fan's imagination.

Especially remembering the scene when the middle-aged man spoke during the day, Zhang Fan felt that the middle-aged man seemed to have something to say, but he couldn't figure out anything, and in the end Zhang Fan could only attribute it to his own luck and was taken by this Master Wang.

"If only Master Wang could teach me some flying spells, then I can fly into the sky like a god." Zhang Fan thought like this in a daze, and unconsciously, Zhang Fan fell asleep.

When Zhang Fan and the others were asleep, in the room next to the small pool in the valley, in the room where Master Wang was.

Master Wang opened the bamboo toad and grabbed the red toad out of the bamboo tree, the red ground toad struggled in his hand, and a large amount of red juice even overflowed from his skin, but he couldn't break free from his palm no matter what.

Looking at the toad that was constantly struggling in his hand, Master Wang showed a hesitant look on his face, the accumulated wrinkles and raised tumors, under the faint light, looked like a demon coming out of hell, which looked a little terrifying.

"According to the book, if you succeed in building the foundation, you can get rid of your dependence on poisons and become a normal cultivator, and I can also get rid of this appearance of being neither a human nor a ghost, but is it true that the book says?"

Determination flashed in Master Wang's eyes, as if he had made a great determination, and he opened his mouth and swallowed the toad in his mouth.

If there is a clear-eyed person here, I am afraid that I will be frightened to the soul, and when I see that the red toad is a highly poisonous thing, how can I eat it alive like this.

But Master Wang's face showed an expression of enjoyment, as if he was not eating something highly poisonous, but delicious food, and the scene was a little terrifying.

In the end, Master Wang opened his mouth and swallowed, and just like that, he gave the red toad to life. Zhang Fan and their senior brother were dumb and stood quietly beside him, looking at all this with a calm face, as if he had long been accustomed to all this.

A light red liquid flowed from the corner of his mouth, and Master Wang licked his lips with some unfinished thoughts, and said to the mute beside him. "You give them everything I gave you. ”

The mute didn't say a word and nodded.

Master Wang opened another clay pot, and this time he took out a centipede from the clay pot, but this centipede was a dead and dried centipede.

"Mash it into powder, add it to your meals, let them eat it, every day. With that, he pointed to a few of the clay pots, "All these contents must be mashed until they are all eaten."

The mute nodded again, like a thoughtless machine.

Master Wang put the dried centipede in his hand back into the clay pot, as if he had thought of something, and a mysterious smile appeared on his face.

"Since I am your master, I can't treat you badly, say, whatever you all want to learn, I will teach you. Master Wang sat on the Taishi's chair, took a sip of tea, and said slowly.

In front of him, Zhang Fan and the three of them stood in turn.

"Master, then can we still become inner disciples? "Zhang Fan still has a glimmer of hope for becoming an inner disciple.

"Do you think it's possible if you still want to become an inner disciple, if you can become an inner disciple, you won't be standing here?"

Master Wang Xi Xi said: "The Guidao Sect is divided into the inner gate and the outer gate, and the inner disciples all have the qualifications to cultivate the truth, and they are all people who can seek the true path in the future, so they are valued by the sect, and of course I am also an inner disciple.

Compared with the inner disciples, the outer disciples simply exist to serve the inner disciples, and the outer disciples are ordinary people with no qualifications, who have been recruited by the Returning Dao Sect to take care of some secular affairs. ”

"Of course, if you perform well, then I will recommend you to the head of the outer gate, although you can't become an inner disciple, but there is no problem if you want to become an inner disciple, although the outer disciple can't cultivate the same as the inner disciple, but there are a lot of silver taels to get every month. ”

Master Wang's voice was full of temptation: "Of course, if you want to practice martial arts, I have two books here, and if you follow the above, it will not be difficult to learn martial arts."

When Zhang Fan heard that becoming an outer disciple had both money and the opportunity to learn martial arts, he felt that this master was not bad for them.

Zhang Fan thought in his heart that if he learned to practice martial arts, if he became a martial arts master or something in the future, it was estimated that he would be much better than his father who took him to the mountains to dig fields and farm.

Several people also understood that since they couldn't become inner disciples, it was still good to learn some martial arts to become outer disciples, and several people thought for a while and agreed.

"Master, when will you do alchemy, we should prepare in advance. Da Niu said.

"What's the hurry, when I prepare for alchemy one day, I will tell you when the time comes."

"Besides, except for your room, you can't go outside the valley to trespass, let alone go into my house, remember it all!" Master Wang's tone suddenly became stern.

Feeling that the atmosphere suddenly became serious, Zhang Fan and the three of them nodded hurriedly: "I know the master." ”

Seeing this, Master Wang's expression relaxed, that serious look disappeared, and he once again returned to that plain expression.

Handing the two booklets to Zhang Fan's hands, Master Wang said: "Practicing martial arts is about perseverance, you can't give up halfway, do what is written in the book, and sooner or later you will become a martial arts master."

After doing all this, Master Wang began to close his eyes and recuperate, and no longer cared about Zhang Fan's them.

"Then you all go out. Master Wang said with his eyes closed.

Hearing this, Zhang Fan and the three of them took the books and turned around and left.

"Brother Niu, why didn't the master let us into the two rooms on the west side. After the three of them walked out of the house, Wang Hao asked Da Niu.

Because Da Niu is the oldest of the three, Zhang Fan and Wang Hao both call Da Niu Brother Da Niu.

Da Niu glared at Wang Hao. "You stupid, that's the house where the master lives, of course we can't trespass as apprentices. ”

Zhang Fan glanced behind him and said in a low voice, "Brother Da Niu, do you think we can really become outer disciples?"

"Of course, could it be that the master will still lie to us. ”

Da Niu said with great interest: "Even if it is an outer disciple of the Returning Dao Sect, it is not easy, if we become an outer disciple of the Returning Dao Sect, even if the old man of the city sees it when he returns to the county seat, he will have to nod his head." ”

"What, even the old man of the city has to nod his head when he sees it. Hearing this, Zhang Fan became a little excited.

The majesty of the old man in the city Zhang Fan has seen it, and he can't imagine that an outer disciple of the Guidao Sect is so unusual, Zhang Fan secretly determined in his heart that he must practice martial arts well and strive to become an outer disciple as soon as possible.
