Chapter 21 Ordinary Mind, Ming'an Becomes a Disciple
The last memory image of the wolf is a green light that stretches hundreds of feet.
He vaguely saw the Taoist priest in green robe and jade crown stepping on the fire dragon, slashing out a hundred-foot sword light and cutting the magic weapon that his eight brothers worked together to cut into two pieces.
When the magic weapon was completely broken, the backlash also made the alpha wolf completely lose consciousness.
When Tian Ming'an hurried to the front hall of the Taoist temple holding the candle, he only saw eight mummies lying on the ground.
The once powerful Dongjun Eight Wolves, the evil cultivator gang that roamed Qingzhou, has completely turned into a dead wolf.
The fighting between Jiang Sheng and the Eight Wolves of Dongjun destroyed half of the Taoist temple.
The front hall was completely destroyed, with only a fragment of the walls on both sides left, and half of the main entrance was broken into pieces.
Looking around, there were fires burning everywhere, broken bricks and tiles everywhere, and the green pines and bamboos planted were all broken and in a mess.
Jiang Sheng looked at the miserable situation in his dojo, with a rare hint of anger in his eyes.
Anyone would be offended by this.
I was hiding in the mountains to practice well, but in the end I was attacked by a group of unrelated people.
Although the enemies were all dead, half of his dojo was also destroyed.
Who can I talk to to explain this?
"Taoist Master?" Tian Ming'an raised his head and looked at Jiang Sheng with great admiration, who had a fire dragon on his feet and a green blade in his hand.
Jiang Sheng sighed and removed the magic power that maintained the fire dragon.
Even with the Heavenly Dao Foundation, it is difficult to maintain the fire dragon for a long time with his powerful magic power now.
In the end, it was actually a competition between Jiang Sheng and the Eight Wolves of Dongjun to see who had more confidence and more powerful magic. In the end, Jiang Sheng obviously had the last laugh.
The fire dragon with its mana removed made a final low sound, and then turned into a sky full of flames and disappeared into the air.
Jiang Sheng fell back to the ground and waved his hand: "Okay, go back and have a rest. If you have anything else, we can talk about it tomorrow."
Tian Ming'an nodded obediently, but after returning to the room, he kept tossing and turning, unable to fall asleep.
What happened tonight was beyond his imagination, and he was so excited that he couldn't sleep at all.
And Jiang Sheng didn't get much rest. The front hall was completely destroyed, and half of the middle hall was destroyed by the aftermath of the fighting. Jiang Sheng had no choice but to hang the portrait of the founder in the back hall and re-establish the incense table and candles.
Sitting cross-legged in front of the portrait of his ancestor, Jiang Sheng took a Juyuan Pill and began to slowly adjust his breath and practice.
After the fire dragon disappeared, the hot breath that remained in the air remained for a full moment before it was offset by the falling snow in the sky.
The flying snowflakes fell again, extinguishing the remaining flames in the temple and covering the tragic traces on the ground.
At Mao o'clock the next day, when the sky was slightly red, Tian Guofu led the people of Qingping Town and hurried up the mountain with various tools.
The dragon's roar last night woke up the people in the town. They only knew that the dragon's roar came from Qingping Mountain, but they had no idea what happened.
Due to the heavy snowfall, I had to wait until dawn before going into the mountain to inquire.
Tian Guofu was worried about his grandson, so he took the young man up the mountain at dawn.
After climbing halfway up the mountain with difficulty, Tian Guofu and Qingzhuang from Qingping Town looked at the dilapidated Taoist temple in front of them and the mess around them. Everyone's hearts froze: Could it be that Director Jiang was eaten by a dragon last night? ? !
"Zhen, Mayor. Is it possible that Jiang Dao Zhang?" A young man felt his whole body trembling. He caught a glimpse of a corpse that was not completely buried in the snow. The corpse was extremely skinny and frozen by the ice and snow. Pewter gray.
Tian Guofu was also worried about his grandson, but he forced himself to calm down: "What nonsense are you talking about?!"
"Chief Jiang is a master of Penglai! Don't think wildly!"
Although he said this, Tian Guofu still stepped forward quickly: "Let's go into the passage and take a look!"
Seeing that the mayor was taking the lead, the young men quickly followed, and a group of people entered the Taoist temple.
Even though most of the traces were buried by falling snow, looking at the piles of debris on the ground and the completely collapsed front hall, one knew that a fierce fight must have taken place here last night.
Especially the broken bricks and tiles that can be seen everywhere in the front yard, as well as the traces of various fighting techniques, you can tell at a glance how dangerous the situation was last night. Tian Guofu's heart dropped when he saw these traces: "It's bad, something big is going to happen!"
"What big thing is going to happen?" Jiang Sheng's voice sounded in everyone's ears There was a sudden sound.
Hearing Jiang Sheng's voice, Tian Guofu immediately felt relieved for no reason. Since Director Jiang was fine, his grandson must also be safe.
Thinking of this, Tian Guofu quickly bowed in the direction of the backyard: "Director Jiang, we heard something in the mountains last night."
"But it snowed hard again in the middle of the night. Even though he was worried about the Taoist priest's safety, he didn't dare to go into the mountain easily. He had to wait until dawn when the snow stopped before going up the mountain to help the Taoist priest. "
Tian Guofu's remarks made Jiang Sheng a little amused: "I am worried about my family. The grandson bluntly said that he was worried about his grandson, and even made trouble with Pindao. "
"Don't worry, Mayor Tian, your grandson is sleeping soundly at the moment. If you want to take a look, just come to the guest room in the backyard to see him. ”
After hearing this, Tian Guofu hurriedly ran to the backyard guest room. He stopped after just two steps and turned to look at the young men in the town: "Why are you still standing there? Why don't you help Director Jiang clean up all these miscellaneous things?" ?”
The young men suddenly understood, and one by one they picked up the tools and began to sweep away the fallen snow and clean up the ruins.
Tian Guofu went to the backyard and saw that his grandson was really sleeping soundly. He angrily pulled Tian Mingan up and said, "You are so ignorant, do you know that you are staying at home? You won't go home even after dawn. Please be safe. Your parents and I have been worried for half the night!"
Tian Ming'an, who had just been woken up, was still a little confused. He suddenly realized that it was his grandfather in front of him and said: "Grandpa! "Why did you come up the mountain?"
Tian Guofu said angrily: "How can I confirm your safety if I don't come up the mountain?"
"There was such a big movement in the mountains in the middle of the night, and the whole family was worried!"
As he said that, Tian Guofu cupped his hands toward the back hall: "It means that Director Jiang is kind-hearted and is protecting you. But you are good. , instead of worrying about the Taoist priest, he came here to sleep!"
Listening to Tian Guofu's scolding, Tian Ming'an bowed his head and admitted his mistake, and was then dragged into the back hall by Tian Guofu.
Tian Guofu bowed respectfully to Jiang Sheng: "Tian also saw the traces in the front yard. In such a fierce fight, the Taoist priest did not forget to protect this kid. Tian really didn't know what to do. Thank you, Taoist priest."
Jiang Sheng said with a smile: "It doesn't matter, if Pindao hadn't kept him overnight, he wouldn't have been in any danger last night."
"Since Pindao has kept him, he will definitely keep him safe."
As he spoke, Jiang Sheng stood up slowly, looked at Tian Guofu, and then at Tian Ming'an: "Mayor Tian, you are Do you regret letting this kid go up the mountain?”
Tian Guofu was startled and didn’t know what to say.
In fact, Tian Guofu really regretted it.
His original intention was to let his grandson follow Jiang Sheng for a period of time to be gilded. If Jiang Sheng was really willing to teach his grandson a half-dozen moves, he would be able to become a Taoist official in the future, which would also honor his ancestors and make the Tian family prosperous.
But Tian Guofu underestimated how dangerous the world of monks really was.
The dragon's roar that resounded through the mountains last night, and then look at the traces of the fierce fighting in the front yard. There are smoke and fire everywhere, traces of knives and axes, and criss-crossing cracks all over the green grass in the front yard. Bricks and slabs, and even some monster remains that looked ferocious even if they were covered by falling snow
The world of practitioners is too scary.
Jiang Sheng knew what Tian Guofu was thinking and said: " Mayor Tian, don’t worry, Pindao will not keep this kid in your family forcibly.”
“Speaking of which, it was also because of Pindao that he was put in danger yesterday. If Mayor Tian only wants him to be rich and prosperous in his life, Just take him back. Pindao has a few words with Magistrate Zhang to ensure that he is rich and has no worries.”
"With Pindao, there is no wealth or splendor to speak of. Pindao is a pure man and does not want to be too involved with the world. Pindao does not bother to pay attention to the affairs of the Qi Kingdom."
"But even so, there may still be danger at any time when following Pindao. Just like last night, you never know when something like this will happen."
Tian Guofu was really surprised after hearing what Jiang Sheng said. His heart was moved, but before he could say anything, Tian Ming'an spoke.
Ever since he saw how wonderful the world of monks was last night, even if it endangered his own life, Tian Ming'an was still full of yearning for practice.
He extremely longs to be a monk like Jiang Sheng, rather than to be a rich man.
Therefore, after hearing what Jiang Sheng and his grandfather said, Tian Ming'an broke away from Tian Guofu's hand and knelt down directly in front of Jiang Sheng: "Taoist Master, I want to stay!"
Tian Guofu was surprised. Looking at his grandson, Tian Ming'an did not look at Tian Guofu at this time, but just lowered his head: "Taoist priest, last night was the first time that the boy came into contact with practitioners fighting. The boy is not afraid of encountering danger. The boy is only afraid of mediocrity in life. "
"The kid was just a frog in the well and didn't realize how big the world is. But last night, the Taoist priest made me see how big the world is and how wonderful it is. I really don't want to go back to the past and continue to be mediocre. ”
“I only want to follow the Taoist priest in this life. I beg the Taoist priest to let me stay.”
