Chapter 28 Apprenticeship (1)
Zhao Qi slept late last night, so he took a nap at noon. But he was woken up just after falling asleep for a short while - the town leader's wife Liu Jiao was chattering about her daughter in the main room. Zhao Qi could only vaguely listen to the words "Are you ashamed?" "Go to someone's house and serve as a servant" and the like, and Chen Xiu's voice was even more chirping, like a magpie who had discovered something great.
He frowned and closed his eyes, feeling extremely disgusted. When I was on the mountain, I always felt miserable and depressed. When I first came down to find Master, I still felt that the world was bustling with activity and that the customs differed from city to city, which was quite interesting. But now, I gradually realize that there are stupid and stupid things around me, and I miss the days in the mountains again.
He closed his eyes and rested for a while, and then the noise over there suddenly subsided. He should have thought that this would disturb his tranquility. But this made him snort in his heart - these people are no different from livestock, doing things based on instinct. If you want to make a noise, make a noise immediately. After a while, the instinct subsides, and you will remember what people are like. This was relatively smart, but what was even more stupid was that he didn't even realize this, so he soiled his magic sword in vain.
Drowsiness slowly came over again, and Zhao Qizheng felt that he was about to fall asleep, but suddenly he heard another shout: "Nonsense!"
Then the voice suddenly dropped. Hearing that the voice should belong to the town owner Chen Xin, Zhao Qi was a little surprised. Why did this old slave girl get angry too? What outrageous thing did his daughter do?
But now he was even more angry than Chen Xin. He rolled over from the bed and got off the ground, opened the door and wanted to scold them. But when he opened the door, he saw Chen Xin walking out of the room, waving his hands and lowering his voice: "...What kind of god is Master Zhao Xian? Huh? Then I can ask him to——"< br>
When he turned around and saw Zhao Qi standing in front of the door, he immediately stopped speaking and bowed down with a smile on his face: "Ah, Master Immortal, I'm sorry, have I disturbed your peace again? I'm going to——"
Zhao Qi glanced at Chen Xiu who quickly retreated from the door of the main room, and snorted with a straight face: "What do you want me to do?"
"Oh, it's my fault, how dare I let you do anything? It's just children talking nonsense..."
Zhao Qi raised his face slightly and narrowed his eyes. Chen Xin quickly stopped the conversation: "Oh, that's what happened. I spoiled my daughter. She ran to Zhendong in the morning and met that... kid named Li Jiye, and the two exchanged a few words. Talk about how smart that kid is when you come back, and no kiss. If you want to become your master, you want me to ask for help from an immortal. That’s outrageous! What kind of person is this? Is this something that anyone can do? Master's disciple? That child..."
Zhao Qi's expression softened slightly: "Is he interested in Taoism?"
"Hey, what does a kid know about being a disciple? Do you want to become a disciple if you say you want to become a disciple? He has nothing to teach you? Besides, what are the things you need to prepare for becoming a disciple? What a pig..."
"Haha." Zhao Qi sneered, "Do you know what opportunity is?"
Chen Xin opened his mouth in shock: "Huh?"
Zhao Qi was too lazy to pay attention to such stupid villagers. He flicked his sleeves and went straight out of the door - what is opportunity? Last night he was still thinking about how to recruit that young man as his disciple so that he could accomplish his great things, but today he was offered the opportunity. This was his chance!
After he pushed the front door with a bang and walked out, Chen Xin straightened her back, turned her face and looked into the main room - Chen Xiu smiled so hard that she narrowed her eyes and gave a thumbs up to her father, only to be tapped lightly by her mother. Lower your head.
When Zhao Qi walked along the road to the door of Xue's house, he saw that only one door panel of the outward-facing wing had been removed, and a young man wearing a coarse brown shirt was sitting on a bench next to the door, basking in the sun. If you take a closer look, you can see that it is not basking in the sun - the most comfortable sitting position for a lazy person is with his back against the wall, his face slightly raised, and his neck and spine slumped. But the boy's back was very straight, and he was looking at the torrent of the Jinshui River, thinking about something.
When Zhao Qi took a few steps closer, the young man seemed to hear the voice and turned his face, and Zhao Qi could see his appearance clearly. This is a very handsome young man. Indeed, as the little girl from the Chen family said, he is worthy of Yushu Linfeng's evaluation. Even wearing such a cloth cannot hide his nobility. This makes Zhao Qi feel a little more at ease - —If someone really ugly and clumsy were following him, it would be really annoying to see him.
But when the young man made eye contact with him, he was stunned for a moment, then immediately turned around, grabbed the bench under him and ran back into the house. This reaction made Zhao Qi frown... Could it be that he is still timid and timid? Although I want to use his temperament to be easy to control, it is always unpleasant to others.
But when he reached the door of Xue's house, this displeasure disappeared - the young man walked out of the door again. Zhao Qi found that there were still some wet marks on his face, and the scattered hair on his forehead was also wet, but he had smoothed it down with his hands. Now he was standing with his hands down, facing himself, but his eyes only fell on his chest, appearing submissive but neither humble nor overbearing.
It turned out that he saw himself, so he hurried back to the house to cleanse himself. After all, he is a descendant of a family that has been passed down for hundreds of years, not someone like the Chen family who suddenly rose to power.
Zhao Qi smiled in his heart, stood in front of the door, stared at him for a while with a half-smile, and said, "Are you Li Jiye?"
Li Wuxiang's lips trembled slightly, and then he whispered: "Yes."
"Do you know who I am?" Li Wuxiang lowered his head slightly: "You are Master Zhao Xian."
Zhao Qi nodded and asked knowingly: "How can you tell?"
"The magnanimity of the Immortal Master..." Li Wuxiang took a slight breath, obviously trying to calm down the excitement in his heart, "Don't think twice about others in Jinshui."
These words are pleasant to listen to, but they are much more appropriate than Chen Xin's "magnificent powers", "overwhelming mountains", "go to heaven and earth" and so on - is that a compliment or a sarcasm? But Zhao Qi had no expression on his face. He only nodded slightly again and stepped through the door.
He saw that there were two stoves in this wing, one big and one small. There is a small table on the side of the small stove near the door, and a small stool next to it. It looked clean, but there was inevitably some accumulated black dust in the gaps between the wood grains that could not be removed. He frowned and wanted to go out and stay.
But before he could move his feet, Li Wuxiang immediately rushed to him, spread a white handkerchief on the small stool, and stood two steps away in an orderly manner.
Zhao Qi breathed a sigh of relief in his heart. The unhappiness accumulated in his heart due to the failure to take a nap was all gone. He lifted up his hem and sat down.
"Li Jiye."
"Here."
"I heard that you want to become my teacher?"
Li Wuxiang's eyes suddenly burst with light, and he couldn't help but look up at him, and then immediately lowered his head again: "Yes."
Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version!
This reaction made Zhao Qi smile in his heart. If he had always been so submissive, he would have felt that the young man was too scheming, but now his uncontrollable behavior revealed the young man's true nature, which made him look even more pleasing to the eye.
So he leaned back slightly casually and looked around the room again: "But I heard that the Lord of Jinshui Town also wants to recruit you as his son-in-law. His family only has one daughter, and Jinshui Town will naturally be yours from now on - —You come from a noble family, haven’t you ever thought about staying here and having your own business?”
Just as Li Wuxiang was about to speak, Zhao Qi slightly raised his hand: "The hardships of practicing Buddhism are also extremely dangerous. In the future, you will inevitably have to follow me to eat and sleep in the open air, travel around the world, and even often worry about your life. Can you bear this hardship?" ”
Li Wuxiang gritted his teeth and suddenly walked up to Zhao Qi. He prostrated himself on the ground and almost leaned in front of Zhao Qi: "Master Immortal! I don't want any inheritance! I have figured it out since the day my family died. All the glory and wealth in the world are all in vain... If I were just like the Immortal Master, even if I couldn’t protect the entire Lijiawan, how could I not protect my family? Please accept me as your disciple!”
At this time, his true temperament was completely revealed. Zhao Qi nodded in his heart and sighed slightly. Nowadays, there is no good chance that I will be the only one left in the Ranshan Sect. If I am lucky enough to find Jin Tangzi, I will be the new leader of the Ranshan Sect, and I will definitely recruit one or two disciples to strengthen the sect. The young man in front of me has a good nature, is carefree, and has a noble character. He is the perfect candidate. If he hadn't been used, he might have actually considered choosing him as his successor today. pity.
He smiled slightly: "If you can see through this, your xinxing is good. But to enter the door of spiritual practice, you need to look at more than just your xinxing -"
He spread the hand on his knee: "Give me your left hand."
Li Wuxiang hesitated for a moment and handed over his wrist.
He knew that the most dangerous time had come.
Now ranked third in the classified signing list! come on! Be first!
The second update is at eight o'clock in the morning.
