He Weidao has always lived at the foot of the mountain, practiced kung fu by himself, and never went to the main peak of Maoshan.
Is there such a thing? Ye Shaoyang froze for a moment, and asked, "He wants to see me?"
"No, he said he borrowed a place from you to practice. Brother, do you want to go and see him?"
Ye Shaoyang nodded, asked Zhang Xiaorui and Ye Xiaomeng to wait, and went down the mountain with Su Qinzhang to the depression between the main peak and Ermao Mountain. There was a spring in the middle, the spring water was clear and sweet, and there were forests in front and behind. There is a thatched house named Qingxiu hall.
Although the earth qi here is strong and suitable for cultivation, the side effect brought by the earth qi is: the temperature here is very low, especially at night when yin and yang alternate, people who are frozen can't stand it.
When Ye Shaoyang was young, in those few years, every summer, he was ordered by his master to live here in secluded cultivation. The pain is still fresh in his memory.
The two came all the way to the thatched hut, and saw a person sitting beside the pool formed by the spring, sitting cross-legged on the ground, not meditating, and staring at the pool in front of him with his eyes open, motionless.
Although the guy in front of him was dressed in shabby clothes, and his hair seemed to be shiny and shiny without washing for a few days, Ye Shaoyang still recognized him at a glance as He Weidao whom he had seen that day.
He Weidao also found him, turned his head to look at him, and said, "Master Ye, you didn't drive me away, did you?"
"I came to see, what are you doing here." Ye Shaoyang cupped his hands at him, "It's been a long time."
He Weidao said: "The Kunlun sect has dispersed, I have nowhere to go, I happened to pass by your Maoshan Mountain, I wanted to go up the mountain to have a look, but found that this place is suitable for Qingxiu, I don't want to go for the time being."
Ye Shaoyang smiled and said, "Are you sure you didn't come to kill me?"
"I'm not your opponent now." He Weidao said: "If Master Ye is generous enough, he hopes to let me stay here to practice. I won't go to Maoshan, and I won't steal art."
When he said that, Ye Shaoyang actually believed it. Although the two of them didn't say a few words, what he did in Xuankong Temple made Ye Shaoyang feel that although this person was a bit dull, he had some ancient chivalrous spirit. Wind, you can trust.
"Let you practice with me, and then seek revenge on me when you have enough strength?"
Ye Shaoyang smiled, and before he could speak, he asked again: "What are you eating here?"
He Weidao said: "You don't need to worry about this, as long as you don't chase me away."
"Okay, how long do you like to live here?"
Ye Shaoyang didn't say much to him, and called Su Qinzhang back to the mountain.
On the way, Su Qinzhang asked if he wanted to deliver meals to He Weidao every day, but Ye Shaoyang didn't agree, since penance should look like penance, and he opened his mouth every day when he came to eat and practiced ass. Anyway, no one usually goes to that place, so let him stay there. Ye Shaoyang doesn't care too much about He Weidao wanting to kill himself to avenge his master. This guy is a gentleman, and he definitely doesn't know how to play Assassination and the like, the most is to find yourself to fight after you have completed your studies.
Ye Shaoyang has never been afraid of anyone in a formal fighting contest.
Unknowingly lived on Maoshan for three days. During these three days, Zhang Xiaorui seemed to be having fun, walking around up and down, bullying those registered disciples, but everyone knew that she was Ye Shaoyang's direct disciple, and no one dared to provoke her. She, on the contrary, made her find the feeling of the martial arts school that she yearned for when she was practicing martial arts, and acted recklessly.
In the past three days, Ye Shaoyang was pestered by Ye Xiaomeng, and he roughly told his own experience after the two separated, Ye Xiaomeng's heart was shaken, and he regretted not going with him at that time.
Three days later, on the fourth day of September, the Big Dipper and Nine Stars descended on Shichen. Under the arrangement of Su Qinzhang, the introductory ceremony was held in the main hall of Jiuxiao Wanfu Palace. All outer disciples and registered disciples came to participate.
On the incense table in the main hall, there are tablets of the Sanqing and the ancestors of the past dynasties, and in front of them are incense watches and tributes. Ye Shaoyang was wearing a sky blue taoist robe with golden edges, holding a Taiyi Whisk in his hand, and swept away all the disciples together, there were almost a hundred of them, which is not bad, but most of them were outside disciples and registered disciples who came to learn art, Maoshan is an authentic Taoist school with a great reputation. Every year, many people come here admiringly and want to learn art.
But learning skills and practicing are two different things after all. Outer disciples usually work as Fengshui masters or Mr. Yin Yang after they graduate from the master.
"Immeasurable Heavenly Venerable!"
Ye Shaoyang preached the Taoist name like a bell, and led a group of disciples to worship Sanqing and the ancestors of the past dynasties.
Zhang Xiaorui and Ye Xiaomeng are two new disciples, wearing ginger-yellow double-breasted plain clothes, standing on both sides of Ye Shaoyang, and bowing down.
Zhang Xiaorui was uncharacteristically serious, which made Ye Shaoyang feel relieved, the apprenticeship ceremony was the most solemn, and in full view, if she said something that shouldn't be said on it, she would lose all face.
After the worship, Su Qinzhang ordered those disciples who had been promoted to the outer sect to come out, a total of seven people, five men and two women, both young and old, but most of them were young.
Everyone first kowtowed to the head teacher, that is Ye Shaoyang, and then kowtowed to the master, that is Su Qinzhang. Both times they kowtowed three times and bowed nine times.
Then Su Qinzhang held incense, walked over with Ye Shaoyang, and preached the three refuges and five precepts: the first refuge is the supreme infinity way, which confirms reincarnation, so it is the treasure of Taoism; Treasure; the third refuge ordered the Great Master Xuanzhong, not to fall into wrong views, so he will learn from the Dharma...
After the reading, Ye Shaoyang, accompanied by Su Qinzhang, walked up to these disciples one by one, first asked them if they voluntarily converted, of course they all answered yes loudly, and then Ye Shaoyang touched their eyebrows and eyes with cinnabar one by one, and distributed name stickers... These are the rules handed down from the ancestors, which are a bit cumbersome.
Ye Xiaomeng is also an outer disciple, but because Ye Shaoyang is accepting apprentices on behalf of the master, and is a generation higher than those outer disciples, so he alone receives the introduction, and when everything is settled, it will be Zhang Xiaorui's turn.
Because he is an inner disciple, the procedure is more complicated.
Under Su Qinzhang's guidance, Ye Xiaomeng first presented the teacher's invitation letter, which contained a red envelope, called the pressing gift, which was a gift money for the teacher's apprenticeship. Su Qinzhang had made an agreement with Zhang Xiaorui in advance that he could give him any amount of money, as long as he had a nine for a fraction, because the Daoist sect believed that ninety-nine was true, and it was a good idea.
Su Qinzhang helped Ye Shaoyang accept the red envelope containing the sticking gift, and when he held it in his hand, something was wrong, "Zhang Xiaorui, a new 40th generation inner disciple in Maoshan, presented it to the master as a sticking gift... er, a bank card ?”
Su Qinzhang held a golden bank card, a little confused, and said in a low voice: "I didn't ask you to prepare cash, how can you get a bank card!"
