Chapter 211 Respective Practice

That night, Deaf Zhang’s snoring ceased to sound, and it was rare for him to suffer from insomnia. I, who was used to the muffled thunder, felt uncomfortable for a while, and couldn’t fall asleep just like him.

In the morning of the next day, Protector Yin really came. Like Protector Chang, he was a middle-aged man in his 50s and [-]s, with a gloomy expression on his face.

But the temperaments of the two people are completely different. Although Protector Chang is indifferent, he exudes righteousness, while Protector Yin looks yin and yang.

He is about the same height as me, his skin is pale with almost no trace of blood, and at first glance he looks like a ghost.

The strangest thing is that in this autumn, he was wearing a thick black cotton jacket and covered himself tightly.

Hufa Yin greeted us first, and then went into the room to talk with Granny Hu Guihua, while Zhang Deaf and I stayed in the yard and waited.

Deaf Zhang was walking back and forth in the yard, and the two finally came out after a while. Hufa Yin walked up to Deaf Zhang with a smile, and patted him on the shoulder very affectionately. It turned out that the two had known each other before.

Moreover, Zhang Deaf's master, Zhang Lingshan, and Yin Hufa are old friends. After all, the ghost-controlling skills of the pool collector and the ghost immortal worshiped by the disciples of the horse are somewhat similar, so the two get closer.

Because it was almost time for me to practice, I politely said a few words to Protector Yin, then hurried to the wasteland outside the village, and continued to practice with Protector Chang.

At night, I came back from outside the village, but when I went into the yard, I couldn't see Deaf Zhang. After asking, I found out that he went to practice with Protector Yin.

At dinner, Grandma Hu Guihua told me that I might not see Deaf Zhang every night in the future, because the practice of both of them will deal with ghosts, so it is not suitable to do it during the day.

Another two days passed in a blink of an eye, and half of the time to the end of the practice has passed. I have learned eight and a half locks, and the rest is just repeated exercises to use them proficiently and be able to use them in actual combat.

And just today, Hu Guihua's mother-in-law brought two more good news. The first good news is that Hu Yinhua, the leader of the Five Immortals Sect, agreed with the three of us to go to Changbai Mountain together. The second good news is about Huang Shisan, Hu Yinhua The old grandma made an exception and asked Hu Guihua's mother-in-law to accept him as a disciple in advance.

The ceremony of recruiting disciples from the Northeast is very complicated and special. It is not as simple as handing tea and red envelopes. Generally, the best time to accept disciples at the entrance of the hall is at night, but Huang Shisan can sit down when he hears this news. I couldn't stop, and arrived at Wuxian Village ahead of schedule.

For such a big matter as apprenticeship, Huang Shisan's grandmother, another Dharma protector, Huang Lanzhi, naturally also came along.

Coincidentally, because seven consecutive days of high-intensity practice had already overloaded my body, so Protector Chang gave me a day off to rest, so that today I happened to be able to witness the process of disciples worshiping masters and standing in the hall today.

Because it was not the best time yet, Grandma Hu Guihua first helped Huang Shisan to drill holes. This hole punching is also called string hole. A disciple can open up to seven holes, and every time he opens one hole, he will gain extraordinary abilities.

The first orifice is located on the Baihui acupoint. Granny Hu Guihua held the Kaishan wood and made Huang Shisan kneel down on the futon, and slammed the acupoint on the top of his head.

Hearing this sound, I even felt a little pain in my head, but Huang Shisan seemed to be fine, instead his face became rosy and his aura became stronger.

"Xiao Shisan, when the first orifice is opened, your yin and yang eyes will also be opened. From now on, you can invite immortals to your body like us." Grandma Hu Guihua said with a smile.

Huang Shisan knelt on the futon and said excitedly: "Thank you, Granny Osmanthus, no, thank you, Master."

"Okay, the time is right now, and it's time for you to stand up next." Granny Hu Guihua's expression became much more serious, and she looked back at the rows of spiritual tablets behind her.
