Chapter 11: Apprenticeship

Li Muran only felt that Zixia Daoren's eyes were like a sharp sword, almost looking through himself inside and out, his heart suddenly jumped wildly for a while, and he couldn't help but subconsciously lower his head, not daring to look at the other party.

"What's your name?" Zixia Daoist pointed at Li Muran and said, "The mana in your body is not deep, but you are actually not slow to make progress in the Chong Acupoint Pulse, your Gongsun Acupoint has already passed half of it, and the Chong Pulse cultivation is good." ”

Li Muran was shocked in his heart, the other party just glanced at it like this, and actually analyzed his cultivation situation clearly, and it was really a "master" that he couldn't imagine yet.

The disciple Zhao Wuming begged the master to accept the disciple as an apprentice. Li Muran's words were extremely sincere.

As he spoke, he took out three talismans from his arms, each of which was a one-star Yuan Qi talisman, and he said: "Although the disciple has average qualifications, he can make up for his diligence and can already make a one-star Yuan Qi talisman. ”

"Well, that's good!" Zixia Daoist nodded with a smile, "Those senior brothers and junior brothers didn't take you as an apprentice, most of them were out of sight." Indeed, there are a few precedents in which although the consecration is not smooth, but the future cultivation will not be left behind. ”

However, Zixia Daoist did not give a positive answer to the matter of accepting apprentices, he turned to Mu Li beside Li Muran and asked, "What about you, what are your strengths?"

"Disciple Mu Li, good at ......" Mu Li was suddenly very nervous, and said with a flushed face: "The disciple heard that Uncle Shi likes the contents of the cup, so he personally brewed a pot of Hundred Fruit Brew, and asked Uncle Shi to taste it." ”

As he spoke, he took out a gourd from his arms, and the faint aroma of wine overflowed.

Zixia Daoren was stunned for a moment, and then laughed, which made Mu Li even more uneasy.

"Good, good, good!" Zixia Daoist said three good words in a row, he accepted the wine gourd, but did not drink it immediately.

"How many of you, tell me about it, what skills do you have?" Zixia Daoist seemed to be in a good mood, and asked the other disciples with a smile.

These disciples hurriedly introduced themselves, some said that they were not afraid of hardship, some said that they were born with great strength, and some said that they were fast on their feet, and if there was any errand in the Taoist temple, they could hand it over to him.

Li Muran's brows furrowed slightly, the apprentice was to ask for immortals, so naturally he should focus on his ability in cultivation, but these few observer disciples all knew that they were not talented enough in cultivation, so they could only find a glimmer of opportunity in the "side door". Mu Li was like this, and so were several other people.

Li Muran was not worried about Mu Li, after all, the latter had a few Yuan Qi talismans in his hand, and if he took them out at a critical moment, he should also be able to impress the Zixia Dao people, and the other disciples, I am afraid it will be difficult to stay.

After listening to the words of the disciples, the Zixia Daoist laughed loudly and said: "You few little things, you can be regarded as each with your own strengths! Okay, there is no way for the heavens to be endless, this Daoist can accept you all as apprentices and let you stay in the sect to practice, but you must promise this Daoist a condition!"

"Thank you, Master!" the disciples were overjoyed.

Li Muran was quite surprised in his heart, how could he have imagined that this qiē was so smooth that even Mu Li had not yet shown those Yuan Qi talismans.

"What conditions?" asked Li Muran tentatively.

Zixia Daoist said: "In three years, there will be a task issued by the sect. This task is a bit risky, but it also has a lot of benefits for you and others. If you want to be a disciple of this path, you must participate in this task, and you can't shirk it for any reason, otherwise you will be severely punished as a teacher, are you willing to accept it?"

"Disciple is willing!" Mu Li and the others immediately agreed, for them, such an opportunity is simply a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity!

"A risky mission?" Li Muran had doubts in his heart and didn't answer for a while.

"If you don't want to, this way is not reluctant, but you have to go out!" Zixia Daoist said lightly.

There was no other choice, although Li Muran still had doubts in his heart, he could only agree first: "The disciple is willing, meet the master!"

All the disciples neatly bowed to the Zixia Dao people, and the Zixia Dao people accepted the salute with a smile and personally helped them up one by one.

After the master and apprentice eagerly met, Zixia Daoist said: "In the past three years, you have to practice hard and work hard. As a teacher, I like to wander around, and I am afraid it is not easy for you to see a teacher on weekdays. If you don't understand something, you can ask your senior brother Qingfengzi for advice. Because the master's mana has not fully recovered, you should retire first. ”

"Yes, thank you, Master!" replied in unison.

Zixia Daoist was about to leave, and suddenly thought of something, he shook the gourd in his hand and said: "Li'er, the hundred fruit brew is too sweet and too light, next time, brew some spirits for the teacher!haha!"

"Yes, Master!" Mu Li agreed excitedly.

After the Zixia Daoist left, all the disciples were overjoyed and cheered together.

"Senior Brother Zhao, what's wrong? I'm finally a formal disciple, why do you seem to be a little unhappy?" Mu Li saw that Li Muran was silent, and asked with some concern.

"It's nothing," Li Muran smiled faintly: "I just think that this is too smooth, and it's a little unexpected." ”

"Hehe, there must be a road in front of the mountain, and there is always a glimmer of hope! From now on, I will be the same senior brother!" Mu Li was very happy, as for the task of the sect a few years later, he didn't pay attention to it at all.

Another disciple said, "Yes, I don't know if it's a blessing for me to become an observer disciple!" Master talks to us disciples all the time with a smile on his face, and I think he is much kinder than other uncles and uncles!"

"I hope so!" Li Muran nodded slightly, and said no more.

......

In the governor's room, Mu Li and Li Muran are registering here to go through the relevant procedures for becoming an official disciple.

"Name?" The person in charge of registration is a young senior brother who has a mid-stage Qi Vein cultivation.

"Zhao Wuming. ”

"When to get started?"

"I entered this sect four years ago as an outer disciple. ”

"Where did you come from?"

"This ......" Li Muran suddenly felt a little hesitant.

"What's wrong?" the young senior brother asked curiously, "Even if there is something unspeakable, you can't hide it." Moreover, this sect is a worldly sect, and worldly grievances will not be pursued. ”

"That's the case," Mu Li hurriedly explained for Li Muran: "Senior Brother Zhao encountered a catastrophe three years ago, and although he saved his life, his memories were lost, so he couldn't remember what happened before, and he didn't mean to hide it. I remember that Senior Brother Zhao said before that he seemed to have been born in a nearby mountain village, and his family made a living by collecting medicines. ”

"Oh, it turned out to be you!" The young senior brother was stunned, he looked at Li Muran with interest, and said: "I heard that three years ago, an outer disciple was struck by a thunderbolt, and he suddenly woke up after two days of fainting, but he lost his memory and changed his personality greatly, it turned out to be you!"

"It's my junior brother. Li Muran nodded.

The young man asked, "I heard that the thunder never struck the creatures for no reason, either because the anger was too heavy and was punished by heaven, or there was another mystery, why were you struck by the thunder, and what did you do?"

Li Muran smiled bitterly: "Senior brother said that he was laughing, the disciple was just unlucky." ”

"No, no, if you don't die in a big disaster, you will have a blessing in the future!, how can you say that you are unlucky!" the young man said with a smile, briefly recorded this information, and then handed Li Muran a disciple token.

"What about you?" he asked Xiang Muli again.

"In Shimogi Li, he was an orphan who was adopted by a deacon disciple of the sect since he was a child. Because the disciple was now abandoned under a big tree, he took the surname 'Mu', and the single name was a 'Li', and later ......"

After Li Muran got the disciple token, the first thing he did was to go to the library pavilion at the inner gate.

He had heard that there were tens of thousands of classics in the library of the inner gate, but only formal disciples could enter the pavilion to read them.

Chaoyuan Peak, where the library is located, is not far from Zixia Temple, and after Li Muran moved from Xinxiu Peak to Zixia Temple, he went to Chaoyuan Peak.

It's quite quiet, in the verdant mountains, there is only a narrow stone staircase mountain road, on which there is moss, ruined everywhere, obviously in disrepair, probably not many disciples will set foot here on weekdays.

At the end of the winding mountain road is a lonely three-story attic, which is also a little old. The pavilion is not very large, and it is hidden in the tall and dense woods, which is even more quiet.

The door of the library pavilion was ajar, and Li Muran pushed the door in, and a familiar smell of books came to his face.

Li Muran was suddenly refreshed, the interior of this library pavilion was spotless, and there was no smell of mildew, it should be taken care of by someone often.

A young man in his twenties and thirties, dressed as a scholar, sat at the entrance, and behind him, rows of bookshelves were filled with books.

The young scholar was holding a yellow ancient book and reading it with relish, and he didn't seem to be aware of Li Muran's appearance.

Li Muran smiled slightly, seeing this senior brother, he seemed to see his former self - he could also read books and read so fascinated.

Li Muran couldn't bear to disturb the young Yaxing, and slowly walked past him and walked towards the rows of bookshelves.

"Stop!" The young man suddenly put away the ancient book in his hand and said lightly: "This junior brother, you haven't paid the spirit stone yet!"

"Spirit stones, I'm an official disciple, and I still have to pay spirit stones to read books?" Li Muran frowned.

The young man pointed to the wall at the entrance, and there were a few lines of large letters written on it, explaining the rules of the library.

Li Muran looked at it, and sure enough, he saw this rule: "All formal disciples need to pay a spirit stone for every day they enter the Library Pavilion!"

Li Muran was suddenly very embarrassed, and he asked tentatively: "Senior brother, can you be accommodating, junior brother has just started, and there is no spirit stone in his hand." Can I keep the accounts in advance and repay them later?"

"This can't be done!" The young scholar hurriedly shook his head and said, "This is the rule of the sect, senior brother, I am only a deacon disciple in charge here, and I can't be the master." ”

Li Muran loves books like his life, and when he sees countless classics in front of him, he can't read them, and his heart is quite uncomfortable.

His heart moved and asked, "Senior brother, there are some vitality talismans here, I don't know if I can ...... it."

Before he finished speaking, the young scholar immediately asked in surprise, "Do you have a vitality talisman?"
