That afternoon, many disciples saw the temple master and Zhuang Yu, who had not been back to the mountain for a long time, having a lively conversation by the stream. They went back and forth for countless times. After dinner, a few acquaintances took Zhuang Yu for a walk. , even making insinuations did not yield a single accurate word.
After finishing the evening class, the master of the temple announced in public that he would accept Zhuang Yu as his direct disciple.
This news has made many disciples envious. So far, Guanzhu, Taoist Master Yue and Mountain Master have not accepted anyone as their direct disciples, not even named disciples. Yang Shuilan, who mysteriously disappeared, is not included. This time, it is considered an open disciple. A good start, but it's a pity that the good thing didn't happen in his turn.
On the field outside the main hall, with the bright moon shining brightly, the other sixteen disciples all smiled and held their hands in congratulations, and then slapped their hands on both sides of Zhuang Yu's shoulders to show that their friendship was more passionate and sincere than fire.
Some people were too harsh, such as Shui Qingru, He He and others who laughed so hard that they gritted their teeth.
He almost knocked the thin Zhuang Yu to pieces. He had to greet him with a shy smile, "If you want to wear a crown, you must bear its weight." Before he could formally become a disciple and offer tea, he was already suffering from unbearable pain. heavy.
These classmates, good brothers and sisters, are really sneaky!
The master of the temple had good intentions and wanted to use this method to prevent him from future troubles. As a disciple of the master, it was much easier for him to do anything. He was truly grateful to the master of the temple.
When Zhang Xuanyan led Qian Jing down the mountain, she whispered: "Xiao Jing, you should try your best to become the direct disciple of the temple master. You were recruited by the temple master, and there is no need for assessment. The temple master values you very much."
Qian Jing has been in Xianling Temple for a month. She likes the harmonious atmosphere among the disciples of Xianling Temple. As a newcomer who has not yet turned into energy, she feels full of goodwill. She raised her head and said: "Xuan Yan Sister, the master of the temple has never given me any guidance on my cultivation, nor has he spoken to me alone, and besides, I still don’t know when I will be able to break through the realm and transform into Qi.”
Zhang Xuanyan touched the little girl's head and said with a smile: "Just be content. Isn't it enough for me to give you special guidance? Don't be anxious, let nature take its course and practice slowly. Lay a solid foundation first. Breaking through the realm will be easier than you imagine." It’s so difficult, but our Taoist temple is full of spiritual energy and is supplied with a small bowl of spiritual rice porridge every day. It’s easier to break through than Taoist temples outside, so don’t think too much about what’s there and what’s not.”
The two of them were talking, while the shade of trees was mottled, and they walked down the stairs.
On the top of the mountain, Tu Kun "looked at" the inconspicuous little black girl with his eyes, then turned his head to look at the spectator next to him and said: "You asked me to accept her as a registered disciple, there must be a reason, right? "
He didn't believe that the viewer would like such a young girl and raise her to be his wife in the future.
Zhang Wenfeng didn't hide it, and sent a message: "She is the reincarnation of my sister's soul. Please accept her as a disciple and give her a legitimate identity so that she can be taken care of easily."
This was a bit of selfishness on his part. Besides, Tu Kun's status was extraordinary in the Da'an Dynasty, so he could enjoy the shade under the big tree.
Tu Kun laughed and said, "Okay, I'll say hello to her tomorrow. She'll be Lezi's junior sister, and there's nothing to say about her seniority. Do you still have the 'Zui Xin Dan'? It's just a gift for her to meet, and I'll help her." It is not good to break through the situation in one fell swoop and drag it out for a long time.”
Zhang Wenfeng handed the bottle of "Zui Xin Dan" that he had prepared long ago to Tu Kun.
After watching Tu Kun leave, Zhang Wenfeng walked down the mountain from the west side of the mountain. The rope he put on Zhuang Yu was the title of master and disciple. This way, the mountain leader did not expect that the master of the temple would often act unpredictably and unexpectedly.
Under the quiet moonlight, the mountain badger slowly patrolled the territory with Hu Qiang'er on his back.
Xiao Ni'er was so crazy that she didn't want to go back to Liuzhi River. Yue Anyan received a summons from Yang Shuilan a few days ago and personally escorted the wild girl back. Yue Anyan wanted to stay in Liuzhi River for a while. If anything happened, he could contact Feijian.
The eldest sister left, the team dispersed, the guests invited from the White Tiger Ridge and the Three-Tailed Demon Fox Department had all been sent away, and the Fairy Spirit Temple returned to its original pure practice place.
After breakfast at dawn, Zhuang Yu received a gift bag, a thousand spiritual energy stones, some banknotes, and a letter from the temple owner, and flew to the city without stopping.
He needs to apply for a file in Zhoucheng to go to Dingxicheng on business, and then go to the Xianling Trading Company on Fangshi Street to chat with the second shopkeeper Zhuang Mi, who is also his cousin, to discuss secrets and give him advice face-to-face. For him, the Fangshi Shop is It was so important that if he didn't use it, he would be struck by thunder and lightning.
After finishing some tasks, he went to Dingxicheng to secretly investigate the people who betrayed Wei Jingjie and the five people. There was no time limit, so he took advantage of the opportunity to practice his skills and deal with various people in Dingxicheng.
In late autumn, the fallen leaves are falling and the ground is covered with yellow.
After finishing the morning practice and finishing lunch, Qian Jing followed Zhang Xuanyan and Shui Qingru down the mountain to the stream and forest where the temple owner often walked, hoping to have an unexpected encounter with the temple owner and talk again. Talk about anger and metaphysics, this is Shui Qingru's "little plan".
Before they could see the visitor, they saw a yellow-faced man wearing a khaki short robe walking out of the woods.
"I've seen the Earth Protector!"
Shui Qingru, the leader, bowed his hands and bowed respectfully when he was ten feet away.
Tu Kun took a quick glance and said, "Get up."
Shui Qingru led the two of them to leave.
But Tu Kun spoke: "Girl, what's your name? Come here and let me have a look."
Qian Jing was pushed by two hands from behind, and then she realized that the only fourth-level master in the Taoist temple, the Earth Protector, was talking to her. She hurriedly raised her hands and replied: "Hui Earth Protector, my name is Qian Jing." She was also shocked by Shui Qingru. After pushing for a while, he quickly approached the famous earth protector. His heart was beating like a drum, and his mind was almost blank, leaving only an unreal thought floating in the air.
No, good things won’t happen to you by chance, right?
"Well, that's right. Are you willing to be my registered disciple?... You will follow Zhang Wenle to my Houshan Cave Mansion tomorrow to perform the ceremony of apprenticeship."
Qian Jing was so dizzy that she couldn't hear clearly. She seemed to have nodded and watched the tall figure leave. She seemed to have saluted. Before she could recover, she was surrounded by the extremely excited Shui Qingru and Zhang Xuanyan. One carried it and flew away.
"Silly girl, you have a stupid blessing. The Earth Protector wants to accept you as a registered disciple. It's such a big happy event. You can't be so happy that you're stupid, right?"
"This luck is so good that it makes my teeth itch. Oh, why can't I encounter such a good thing?"
"Yes, the Earth Protector doesn't even look at us seriously."
"What's so special about this silly girl? I want to pinch her hard."
The two of them carried Qian Jing in the mist and flew up to the Qingzheng Courtyard. They shouted loudly that the disciples in the Qingzheng Courtyard were in a panic. Various congratulations and laughter woke Qian Jing up. Her face was red and excited. He saluted and thanked him.
Lezi, who was busy in the kitchen, was shocked when he heard the news. He wiped his hands clean, ran to the court, squeezed to the front, looked at the little girl who didn't look amazing, and asked: "What did Master tell you?"
Shui Qingru rushed to say: "Guardian Tu asked you to take her to Houshan Cave Mansion tomorrow to perform the ceremony of apprenticeship."
Qian Jing nodded quickly. She really didn't know that the very tall man busy in the kitchen and livestock shed was another disciple of Protector Tu. Everyone seemed to call him "Senior Brother Lezi", but he had never seen Brother Lezi go to the Taoist Temple on the top of the mountain. She did her homework, didn't go to the training hall, and didn't see any sparring. She thought the busy senior brother Lezi was a Taoist temple servant.
In one month, she has not yet recognized everyone in the Taoist temple.
"Did you tell me when you're going tomorrow?"
"I didn't say anything specific, just tomorrow."
After listening to Shui Qingru's reply, Lezi knew what he said. This kind of statement was Master's style. Looking at the little girl, he already had a smile on his face: "Junior sister, come with me to the city in the afternoon and buy some things tomorrow." For apprenticeship."
Until now, he, as a registered disciple, has not held a tea ceremony to become a master.
I wonder if Master has forgotten it, or just thinks it doesn’t matter?
But why do you need to hold a apprenticeship ceremony when you recruit a junior junior sister? Is it really okay to go to the Yaxi River so eccentrically?
He only slandered a few words, but he didn't dare to complain to the master, not even to joke.
Qian Jing hurriedly saluted and saw the tall senior brother wearing an apron with water and oil stains on his body.
She felt that she would get closer to a senior brother like this.
No one in the Fairy Spirit Temple seems to be condescending and unkind. From the temple master to the disciples below, everyone has a gentle smile. Except for the mountain chief, who is serious in speech and language, even the old lame man in the kitchen is respectfully called "Lame" by the disciples. "Master".
At the edge of the Lingquan pool, Zhang Wenfeng held the broken bronze sword in his hand, smiled and nodded, and continued to pace.
In the morning, I received a summons from Yang Shuilan, asking him to be a matchmaker with Tu Kun and making an appointment with Heavenly Master Zhu Xun to meet by the small river ten miles away from the border of Modao County in three days.
Yang Shuilan didn't find out anything good about the mountains. Meeting and chatting with Zhu Xun was not a bad thing.
She wanted to live peacefully in Willow Branch River and practice cultivation, and she couldn't afford to offend all the neighbors on both sides.
