The Record of Swordsmen in the Late Sui and Early Tang Dynasties

Chapter 737 720 Six: Tongtian Guan Wuji Iron Bull officially accepts apprentices
The two people urged their horses to go straight to the Tongtian Temple and rushed over. When they reached the gate of the temple, Duan Wuji and the others got off their horses.

I saw that the Tongtian Temple is still as dilapidated as before!

The broken gate at the gate seems to be more dilapidated than before, and the tiles on the house seem to have fallen off again.

The two couldn't help shaking their heads when they saw it!

Who doesn't feel uncomfortable seeing such a decaying scene!
Duan Wuji stood in front of the gate and shouted loudly: "Master Liaochen! Master Liaochen!

Our two brothers see you coming again, so hurry up and open the door! "

With a cough, Taoist Master Liaochen walked out and said loudly: "Wuliang Tianzun, is it Wuji and Tie Niu?
Just wait a minute!

Let me open the door for you! "

Saying that, Master Liaochen opened the broken door.

Duan Wuji and Tie Niu came in leading the horse.

The two men led the horse to the yard, and then tied the horse to the two small trees in the courtyard.

It's not yet the time for that kind of food, and the courtyard is still bare.

However, the weeds in the yard have long since grown, and the tender grass is everywhere!

Duan Wuji glanced at Taoist Master Chen and said with a smile: "Master Liaochen, your spirit is not bad! It seems that you have a good time in your childhood!"

"Immeasurable Heavenly Venerable, Donor Duan, isn't this thanks to the two of you!
If it weren't for the relief from the two of you, maybe this Xiaoguan would not be able to survive long ago!

The two of you donated so much rice, flour, grain and oil to my poor view, I won’t beg for alms if I’m poor, do you think it’s okay for me to be a spiritual leader!
Two benefactors, if you tie up the horses, please come to our house!

Since you are here again today, then stay here for a few more days!

To be honest, in our small view, we really cannot do without great benefactors like you!

Without your great benefactors, our life would be really miserable!

You two, come with me! "

Tieniu looked at Chen and asked, "Master Liaochen, what are your two little disciples doing?"

"Oh! Ask about those two little bastards! The two of them had nothing to do after eating, and went outside to practice martial arts!
These two little bastards have nothing to do with their mothers, and they are gesticulating in the yard all day long!

well!I regret it now thinking about it!

I originally planned to take them as apprentices and let these two boys take care of me until the end of my life, but now it seems that I really can't count on them.

You say they are little Taoist priests, what's the use of practicing that martial arts all day long! "

Duan Wuji laughed when he heard this.

"Master Liaochen, your sentence is wrong, this Taoist temple is not the property of your ancestors, don't you even understand this!

Although you live in this temple, to put it bluntly, we are still passing by in this temple!

We just take in two apprentices, so no matter what, we can't have the idea of ​​making him our son!

The master and the apprentice talk about fate, if there is no fate, then nothing will work!

As long as there is fate, I believe that they will give you retirement!
However, Master Liaochen, if you sow evil fruits, then no one can save you! "

"Immeasurable Heavenly Venerable! Promise!

I understand the truth you said, alas!To put it bluntly, Pindao has to count on these two little bastards!

The leaves fell under the tree, don't I even understand this truth!

Don't these two boys love to practice martial arts?Then let them practice!

Anyway, there is nothing wrong with this view, my body is fine for the time being!

Now I don't need them both for what!If I really can't do it anymore, then I can count on them!
Two, Pindao just picked some new tea from the mountain, come on!
Poor Dao, let me boil some water and soak two bowls for you guys!

You two try it too!
Poor Dao, I also know that if there is no support from the two of you in the small temple, it will be almost the same if you can't eat! "

With that said, Liao Chen took the firewood and went to light the fire.

Before long, three bowls of fragrant tea were served.

The three of them were chatting while drinking tea, and after about an hour, singing suddenly sounded outside the gate.

"Morning rises and fog covers the mountains, clouds and mists clear and the mountains are clear, and Taoist priests wake up early, just because of the fate of the world!"

Liao Chen laughed and said: "Listen, those two little bastards are back now, they have nothing to do, they are just drinking.

These two little bastards have enjoyed happiness with me since they followed me. They have never gone out for a day's fate!

well!After all, it's all human life!

If this fate is good, it is better than anything else!

If I had such a good life as them, I wouldn't have to suffer so much. "

The three of them were talking, when Chongyangzi came in with his younger brother Chongzhenzi.

"Immeasurable Heavenly Venerable, Master, disciples, we are back!

Yo!Whose two steeds are these!Why is it so beautiful! "

"Brother, who else can have a horse here! It must be our master who came to see us!"

"Junior brother, don't talk nonsense, you haven't seen our master's two horses before, are those two horses the same as these two horses!"

"Well! It's different, so who is here?"

The two walked in, talking to each other in low voices.

As soon as Liao Chen heard Chongyangzi and Chongzhenzi come in, he immediately shouted loudly: "Chongyangzi, Chongzhenzi, why don't you two quickly get out of the room for me!
You two look who is here! "

The two children heard Chen's cry and ran in immediately.

When the two children saw Tieniu and Duan Wuji sitting with Liaochen, they were stunned.

The two little Taoist priests froze for a while, and that Chongyangzi gave his junior a wink, and then the two children knelt down on their knees to salute Duan Wuji and Tie Niu.

"Master! When did you two arrive?"

Tie Niu grinned.

"It's been more than an hour since the two of us arrived! Where have you two boys been?

I didn't talk back for so long! "

"Reporting to Master, the two of us went to practice martial arts by the river.

Didn't you two say that before you left?If the two of us practice martial arts seriously, you two will formally accept us as apprentices!
Master's words, how dare we both forget them!

This martial arts training should be said that three points are talent, and seven points are hard work!

Although the two of us are not very talented!But we both are willing to work hard!

If Master refuses to accept us as disciples, then we both have nothing to lose!

Who doesn't know!This is the reason why art is not overwhelming!

If the two of us can worship at the feet of the two masters, then our future will definitely be bright! "

Duan Wuji laughed when he heard this.

"Are you two smart enough?

Well!After dinner, the two of you will start to practice the martial arts we taught you. If you two practice well, we will take you two as apprentices immediately!

If you don't practice seriously, then we will pull you down, you two will still be your little Taoist priests, and we will return to our Taiyuan Mansion. "

"Yes! Disciple understands!

Master, you two haven't had lunch yet!Let's go cook with you!
After eating, our two brothers began to practice martial arts! "

With that said, the two kids turned around and went out!
Duan Wuji saw that the two children were diligent enough, and when Ji Wuji met, to be honest, he really liked them!

It's not too long, so lunch is served. It's a baked flatbread and boiled dried cabbage soup!

Although there are no other things, it still tastes full of flavor!

After eating lunch, Duan Wuji was stunned for a while, and said to the two children: "Okay, let's go, let's go to the yard, you two should practice martial arts well!

Whether or not you can be accepted as disciples depends on the performance of the two of you. "

The two children got the order from Duan Wuji, and immediately walked out of the house with their own set of wooden weapons.

Afterwards, Duan Wuji and Tie Niu and Liao Chen also came out of the house.

Duan Wuji said to Chongyangzi: "Chongyangzi, you should practice first!"

"Yes!"

Chongyangzi first picked up the big stick, and opened the frame with a fire-burning pose, and then practiced walking through the door and striding forward.

I saw the stick rising like the wind, and the stick falling like lightning, and there was a stick inside the stick, it was the sticks connected!

After practicing the big stick, Chongyangzi picked up the wooden sword again!
I saw that Chongyangzi sword was handed over with one hand, and an immortal showed the way, so he let it go.

Afterwards, Chongyangzi took a quick step forward and opened the sword.

I saw that Chongyangzi's body was turning, and he practiced every move with a nose and an eye. Although some moves were not very mature, they were still practiced pretty well.

After that Chongyangzi finished practicing, this kid didn't grow angry, his face didn't change, as if he wasn't the one who practiced martial arts just now!

Duan Wuji nodded when he saw it.

"Okay! You practiced well. Although some of the moves are not yet mature, it must have been a lot of hard work!

Mako Shige, it's your turn now! "

"Yes! Master!"

Chong Zhenzi also rehearsed the big stick and sword skills very hard like Chong Yangzi did, and stood aside after the rehearsal!

Zhong Zhenzi said in a low voice: "Master, I didn't practice well, but I tried my best!

I hope you will accept me as your disciple!

Disciple, I will work hard in the future! "

Duan Wuji listened and nodded!
"Well! Know your shame and be brave. Now that you know your own shortcomings, don't you just work harder in the future!

Since both of you are willing to worship us brothers as teachers, then we will accept you two as personal disciples!
Remember, both of you, you must be chivalrous when you enter my door.

What we practitioners of martial arts say is to help those in danger and rescue those in need, eliminate violence and bring peace to the good.

Even if you are willing to enter my sect, you should abide by my sect rules.

If any of you use martial arts to bully others in the future, it will not be counted as the disciples of our two brothers. Have you two heard clearly? "

The two children knelt down to salute.

"Yes! Disciple understands! When we grow up, we will definitely abide by Master's words, we will definitely help the crisis out of trouble, and carry forward the spirit of Master!"

"Well! That's good! Then you two boys get up! If you have a future, don't forget to Hongyang our martial arts.

The two of us don't ask you for anything in return. When we grow up in the future, we can guard our Tang Dynasty!

It's not easy for me in the Tang Dynasty!It has not been a few years since the founding of the country, and there are many powerful countries around, which may threaten the safety of our dynasty at any time.

You have to practice hard.In the future, we must contribute to our country! "

"Yes! Disciple wrote it down!"

The apprenticeship ceremony was as simple as that, there was nothing complicated about it, two people came over and gave Duan Wuji and Tie Niu a few heads, and the apprenticeship ceremony was over!

Daoist Liaochen looked at it and blinked.

"Wuliang Tianzun! Wuji! You two brothers are so scheming!

Poor Dao, I managed to find such two precious apprentices, how did they become your disciples in the blink of an eye!

well!Poor Dao, I am so unwilling in my heart!

I am lonely and helpless, I finally found two people to rely on, and in the blink of an eye, it belongs to you two, so who will I rely on in the future! "

Duan Wuji laughed and said: "Master Liaochen, you don't have to worry about this, although they are our disciples, they are still your old man's disciples!

You old people can still teach them how to behave, and at the same time, you can also teach them Taoism.

We do not affect each other.

When they grow up in the future, they will naturally have their own way of life!

It's up to them whether they return to lay life or become monks. How can we do things for them in the future?

Master Liaochen, do you think it makes sense? "

"Immeasurable Heavenly Venerable! Duan Benefactor, you really appreciate it!

I'm in my 70s, maybe I'll go there sometime!

I really can't control these things in the future!

Then everything will be fine! "

Tie Niu laughed out loud.

"Okay! Let's do everything according to the fate, and there is no increase or decrease in our hearts!

Both of us are important ministers of the court now, and I'm afraid we won't have much energy to pay attention to him after this matter! "

Duan Wuji said with a smile: "Since we two brothers are here, we can't come empty-handed no matter what we say!

Chongyangzi, let's go!Follow me to the bottom of the mountain to buy some firewood, rice, oil, salt and so on!
It also saves you from running out for alms at a young age! "

When Liao Chen heard that Duan Wuji had given them incense back, a smile appeared on his face immediately!
"Chongyangzi, follow your master down the mountain, you have to go back early!"

"Yes! Disciple would like to obey the teacher's order."

Tieniu said with a smile: "Then you two go! I won't go down today! Then let me pass on the martial arts of Chongzhenzi!
When you come back, let us two brothers teach their martial arts together! "

Duan Wuji led Chongyangzi down the mountain, and the two came to the grain and oil store where Duan Wuji and the others often went. One hundred catties of rice, eight hundred catties of millet, one hundred catties of mung beans, one hundred catties of peanuts, twenty catties of sesame oil, and one hundred catties of salt!"

When the shopkeeper heard this, he immediately shivered.

"Oh my god! Who is this? Such a big tone!

My small shop only sells so few things in a month!

This is not to make me happy, right? "
