Chapter 67 Traveling to Putuo Mountain, Qian Jin was the first to accept apprentices
The three of them kept walking northeast, towards the sea. Nian Mei has been holding Yaya's hand, injecting some internal strength into her, and combing her meridians by the way. As she walked, she taught her the cultivation techniques of "Divine Thoughts", but Yaya was indeed very smart, and by the seventh time, she had been able to recite them all.
Because Yaya was there, the three of them found a farmhouse to spend the night in the evening, and Nianmei asked Yaya to continue to recite the "Shen Nian" exercises at night, and told her the precautions.
As soon as it was dawn the next day, Qian Jin and Nian Mei heard that Yaya next door had already started to get up and went out. The two also hurriedly got up and went out, and saw Yaya carrying water in the yard and preparing to go upstairs, her little face was red from exertion.
Nian Mei, "Yaya, what are you carrying water?"
"I'll prepare hot water for my master and my master to wash their faces. ”
"Yaya, no. We cultivators don't pay so much attention to it. With that, he lifted the bucket to the spot and began to wash his face.
"Yaya, didn't you sleep well last night, got up so early?"
"Master, I slept well last night, I get up at this time every day, and I get up so early when I work for the young lady and the young master. ”
"How old were the old young masters and young ladies before, and why didn't you do it?"
"The young master and the young lady are the same age as me, they all moved away, and I don't know where they went. ”
"Yaya, from now on, you will be my apprentice, a cultivator, you can't call any young master and young lady, let alone serve any young master and young lady, you know?"
"Oh, I see. Master, I fell asleep last night with my back on my back. But I memorized it again when I got up today, and it feels right, I'll recite it to you now. After saying that, he immediately began to recite it, word for word.
The three of them rented a boat by the sea and went directly to Putuo Mountain. After the improvement of living standards and the wearing of well-fitting clothes, Yaya is now a typical child from a large family, with big eyes and blinking. Since the recitation of "Shen Nian", Nian Mei asked her to recite the "Heart Sutra" scriptures, and after three days of memory, she has memorized it backwards. But Qian Jin and Nian Mei were greatly surprised.
Less than thirty miles out of the sea, the sea began to be stormy, torrential rain poured down, and great waves came one after another. The boat floated and swayed with the waves, and Yaya began to turn pale with panicked eyes.
Nian Mei asked, "Yaya, are you afraid?"
"Master, I'm a little scared, it's water everywhere, and there is nowhere to go if the boat capsizes. ”
"Don't be afraid, if the boat can't capsize, with me and your master here, you won't be afraid after you practice the exercises in the future. ”
Seeing that the waves were getting bigger and bigger, Qian Jin stood up, stepped on the cabin board with his feet steadily, and released his internal qi outside, driving the boat to avoid the monstrous waves one by one. Seven hours later, the sea surface tended to be calm, and Qian Jin was also exhausted of internal strength, so he sat down cross-legged and began to recover his strength, but the external aura was insufficient, and he took out two spirit stones from the ring to replenish it. Within an hour, all the cyclones in the body had recovered, and they were only bigger than the original, and the four hidden points found later increased by 20%, reaching 1.6 times the original size.
Qian Jin didn't understand this, and told Nian Mei about the situation of the reply, Nian Mei was also very strange, the other tricks have not changed, but the hidden points have increased. However, knowing that the spirit stone can quickly recover physical strength, this is a new discovery.
Ascending Putuo Mountain, the two of them discovered the place where the aura gathered, and the three of them walked on the island without hurrying or slowing. For ordinary people, this is really a good place, there are mountains and rivers, mountains and seas are connected, the scenery is beautiful, there are also secluded caves, ancient temples of Lin Palace, the whole island is shrouded in clouds and mist, and it is very beautiful.
On the third day, Qian Jin found the host in the Puji Temple at the southern end of the island, learned about the cultivation method of Buddhism, and also learned some things about the cultivation world from him, and finally, the two conducted a few spell competitions.
In the competition, Qian Jin only showed one success, and the abbot withdrew from the circle after thirty moves, "Amitabha, the donor has profound skills, and the poor monk is not an opponent." ”
Qian Jin hugged his fists, "The abbot has profound skills and has conceded." ”
On the returning ship, Nian Mei said, "Brother Jin, I feel that the cultivation world has indeed regressed, will the changes in the environment have such a big impact? ”
"We've only seen a few people now, and we've only been to Wuyi Mountain and Putuo Mountain. This is just one of the four famous mountains, maybe we haven't seen other people's masters yet. ”
"Let's go to Penglai and Laoshan next, they are not very far. ”
"Okay, let's put Yaya at home first. ”
"Let's go to Ningbo to buy some things and go back, Yaya still needs to eat, and buy some clothes. ”
"Then let's just go to Shanghai for a walk, there's more stuff there. ”
Qian Jin was carrying a small box, Nian Mei was holding Yaya's little hand, and the three of them kept going in and out of various stores on the streets of Shanghai. Qian Jin bought two maps of the world and China, while Nian Mei bought a lot of clothes, not only for herself, but also for everyone else at least two sets, and later, she had to buy another big box.
When Qian Jin met the rice store, he entered, bought twenty catties each time, and then quietly transferred it into the ring until he bought five hundred catties, and the ring was full.
The three of them were carrying two boxes and were about to take a boat back from Wusongkou. When I got to the ticket gate, I saw a circle of people in front of me, who were shouting noisily. Qian Jin couldn't help but join in the excitement in the area.
It turned out to be a child selling conch and oysters, the child had clear eyebrows, but a very strong physique, and was not more than seven or eight years old.
"Alas, what a pity this kid is. The good family is gone, how will he live alone in the future. ”
"Those relatives are really not things, when his family used to have money, all of them were very enthusiastic, but now there is an accident in the family, all of them are gone, and the borrowed money is not returned, and no one can find it. ”
"That is, adversity sees people's hearts. But the little one is also very strong and is beginning to learn to support himself. ”
"It's not so easy to feed yourself. All of these things are sold, not enough for a meal. ”
Qian Jin asked a few people who were talking about the child, and learned that their parents and brother were killed by stray bullets from the army on their way home half a month ago, and they were all killed, and they were the only ones left in the family, and their uncles and aunts couldn't see each other now. In the past, his father was a famous teacher here, and his mother was a newspaper reporter, and the family was relatively well-off, but since his parents' accident, the neighbor helped sell his property and put his parents in the ground, and now he has no fixed place, and often takes turns to spend the night at the neighbor's house. But now I go out to catch some small fish, shrimp, conch shells and other things to sell to solve my own food problems.
Neighbors reported that the child was very intelligent and independent. Qian Jin also felt that this kid had good bones, so he thought about accepting apprentices. Walk up to the child and say, "What's your name, how old are you?"
"My name is Zhao Jiping and I am seven and a half years old. ”
"Would you like to come with me? I promise you to eat and drink in the future, and teach you kung fu. ”
"Do you know kung fu?"
Qian Jin didn't speak, just pressed a conch with one finger, and then a large area of cracks appeared on the conch.
Zhao Jiping immediately knelt down and kowtowed, "Master, I'll go with you!" and then kowtowed three times.
Qian Jin said, "Get up, go and thank those who have helped you, and then you will go with me to leave Shanghai by boat." ”
"Brother Jin, do you also want to accept apprentices? But Zhao Jiping's roots are very good, and his progress will not be slow in the future. ”
"This also happened to happen, according to your words, it was fate. ”
Zhao Jiping ran to the side of the street, knelt down in front of those houses, and shouted, "Grandparents, uncles, aunts, brothers and sisters, Ji Ping thank you for taking care of you, I am about to leave with my master, and I will come back to repay you in the future." With that, three rings followed.
Qian Jin and Nian Mei looked at all this and didn't say anything, but they already recognized Zhao Jiping's personality in their hearts.
The three of them sailed all the way south and landed in Wenzhou three days later. Qian Jin also taught "Divine Thoughts" to Zhao Jiping, and then taught him "Great Compassion Mantra", and in three days, Zhao Jiping memorized all these two books, and Qian Jin couldn't help but secretly appreciate his understanding and perseverance.
With two children together, the road is a lot more lively, there is no survival pressure, Yaya and Zhao Jiping show a lot of childlike fun, but both of them are a little young and old, and they do not show complete childlike fun.
Sometimes when the two couldn't walk, Qian Jin and Nian Mei took their hands, injected them with a trace of internal force, and combed their meridians by the way, so the two little guys quickly became vigorous.
As soon as they entered the territory of Fujian, less than thirty miles, Qian Jin and Nianmei discovered an abnormality, and there were robbers in ambush in the mountains and forests. The two of them didn't care, and let the two little ones bounce in front of them and keep moving forward.
After walking less than ten feet, nearly 20 robbers appeared in front and behind, armed with pistols, spears or knives and clubs.
"Oh, robbery, leave the money. The first one shouted.
Zhao Jiping and Yaya hurriedly retreated to Qian Jin and Nianmei, and grabbed the corners of their clothes tightly.
Qian Jin, "Ladies and gentlemen, our family doesn't have much money, only two oceans are left, we leave the ocean, and hope to let us go." After speaking, he threw the two pieces of ocean in his hand to the person in front of him.
When the four of them passed by the crowd, the leader shouted, "Haha, I didn't find it, this girl is still very beautiful." The three of you go, and this beauty stays. ”
"Hero, this is my wife, and she wants to let us go home together. ”
One of the people next to him said viciously, "You want to die! Our boss has taken a fancy to your wife, and that's your blessing." You haven't heard of it, as long as our boss has a crush on someone's daughter-in-law, he will honestly send it over. ”
The bandits all laughed.
Qian Jin still wanted to say a few words, but Nian Mei's face was already pale, and a whirlwind passed, and everyone fell to the ground, crying wolves one by one.
Nian Mei grabbed the leader, "Say, how many robbed women are there in your nest?"
"There aren't few, women, not many. ”
"Take us to see it. You show the way!"
