Chapter 63 Reason
There is actually not much of the ceremony of apprenticeship, just some pieces of debris such as cloth, tea, and herbs, and there are 100 taels of silver.
The Wu family is not a big family, and Wu Mian never said that Liu Yunxiao, whom he worships, is also a practitioner, is also a practitioner, so the Wu family has only prepared gifts according to the general etiquette of apprenticeship, which is already a lot.
Ordinary apprenticeships are too much.
Just thinking about Liu Yunxiao's identity, Wu Mian still asked Zhou Changsheng: "Senior Brother, will this be a little shabby?"
Zhou Changsheng smiled and said, "It's enough for you and your family to have this intention, and the master does not lack these things. He will accept you as his disciple, but what he values is your nature. If you don't like it, even if you give it to the mountains of gold and silver, the master will not accept you as his disciple."
Wu Mian was at ease.
In fact, he also knew that Liu Yunxiao would not value the gift of apprenticeship. Just the head of Yongjia School, Liu Yunxiao earned more than 100 taels of salary every year. In addition, Liu Yunxiao was also a monument guardian, and the court allocated funds every year, which was even less than money.
But sometimes, the etiquette that should be present still needs to be expressed.
This is the worldly way of human nature, and practitioners are also humans, so they should also talk about it.
"Then where did I send it? Not returning to the monument? Or the meeting hall?"
Liu Yunxiao did not live in Dongyuan, and usually stayed at the place where the monument was not in front of him or at his feet. If he wanted to give gifts, Wu Mian could not enter alone.
"There are not many things, just send them to the Buguibei." After Zhou Changsheng finished speaking, he picked up a stack of cloth and a wooden box with tea leaves turning and said, "It just so happens that I have something to ask the master to report. Let's go there together now."
"Okay!"
Putting the remaining things onto your body in large bags, Wu Mian followed Zhou Changsheng around the North Courtyard and entered the dark and mysterious world where the Forbidden Monument was located from the gate of the North Courtyard.
The place where the monument is located is still dark and dark, with only a few candles swaying in the distance.
But unlike when I first entered, Wu Mian felt a dizzy feeling in her head as if she hadn't slept all night. The last time she felt this feeling was after entering and exiting!
He was already very familiar with the situation of a dizziness in his head. Every time he practiced the Qinglong Mengzhangjue, he felt a little bit like this, but this time it became even stronger.
This is a state of excessive mental consumption.
I haven't practiced the Qinglong Meng Zhangjue yet today, why is my mental consumption so severe? Could it be because of the Beidou Sword you practiced?
It's not right, I didn't feel how my mind was consumed at that time.
After biting his tongue and awakening himself, Wu Mian followed Zhou Changsheng forward again and came under a swaying candlelight.
Liu Yunxiao was meditating under the candlelight. After hearing the sound of them coming, he opened his eyes and looked at them quietly.
"Master, this is the apprenticeship ceremony my elder brother brought from home."
Wu Mian directly told the reason.
"Gift……"
Looking at the things the two brought, Liu Yunxiao nodded slightly: "If you are interested, let it go. Remember to say hello to me."
After the two of them put up the gifts, Liu Yunxiao stared at Wu Mian for a moment and said, "I heard from Changsheng that you are learning swordsmanship now."
Wu Mian suddenly felt a sudden jump in his heart. He knew that he was about to be scolded again, but he still said: "I am following Senior Brother Qiu's junior sister, Senior Sister Yi Qiaoer from the Gucheng School, and learning the Beidou Sword."
Unexpectedly, Liu Yunxiao did not scold him, but said, "It's really good to learn a swordsmanship if you have more skills. But before you practice this swordsmanship, don't be too greedy."
"Disciple understand!"
After Wu Mian replied, Liu Yunxiao looked at Zhou Changsheng again.
Zhou Changsheng immediately expressed his purpose: "I'm sending another letter from Qinzhou."
When Wu Mian heard his words, his head was filled with drowsiness and was immediately excited.
It was only a few days since Zhao Xiangzhong wrote a letter last time, but I didn’t expect that I would send another letter now. This time, Zhou Changsheng would say in front of him that he might be planning to let him know about Qiu Mingzhi and Zhao Xiangzhong’s trip to Qinzhou.
Sure enough, after taking a look at Wu Mian, Liu Yunxiao did not let him leave, but asked, "What do you say in the letter?"
"The letter said that they had sneaked into the vicinity of Liumo Mountain. The veins in that area were a bit abnormal and seemed to have been changed by humans. However, they could not obtain the assistance of Zhijinwu from the local area. They could not confirm what the veins in Liumo Mountain were and what impact it had on the dragon veins. I hope the master can invite a few people who know the tricks to come and help."
"The earth veins have been artificially changed..." Liu Yunxiao pondered for a moment and said, "I will arrange this."
Then, he seemed to suddenly remember something and looked at Wu Mian: "Amian, did you think of these nine characters?"
As he spoke, he waved his hand and flew into his hand. The font was not ugly, but it was far from beautiful. There were nine words written in the font: The heavenly soldiers walked away but broke through the chaos.
That font is not ugly or far from good-looking, it is obviously Wu Mian's handwriting.
Unexpectedly, my senior brother attached so much importance to these nine words and actually gave it to the master.
Wu Mian thought in his heart, but his movements were not stagnant at all. He nodded and said, "Yes. That day, when I heard from my senior brother that Tianbing Mountain suppressed Hun Dun's body and did not return to the monument to suppress Hun Dun's soul, he suddenly felt something and took the initiative to write these nine words."
"Do you feel something in your heart..." Liu Yunxiao pondered again. After a moment, he took the nine-character paper in front of him and looked carefully, saying, "It seems that it is not a mistake to accept you as his disciple."
Um?
Wu Mian's eyes immediately blinked.
He still has many doubts about his ability to become a disciple of Liu Yunxiao.
When he became a disciple of Liu Yunxiao, he only came to Changshang for about a month. Although he performed very well on weekdays, how could a month of investigation be enough to become a person like Liu Yunxiao?
Zhou Changsheng said that he had been begging for four years before he joined Liu Yunxiao's disciple.
Who is Zhou Changsheng? The son of Shangzhou Magistrate, has a wide range of connections and the family's foundation is in Shangzhou. It would not be too troublesome to find someone who knows Liu Yunxiao.
But in this way, Zhou Changsheng still asked for four years and was inspected by Liu Yunxiao for four years before he was admitted to his subordinates.
Even if he practices well, it will only be one month, and the possibility of disguising is very high. However, Liu Yunxiao still accepted him as his disciple after he made a request to become a disciple. There is no other reason for this, but he didn't believe it.
Now, Liu Yunxiao seems to be revealing the reason for accepting him as his disciple.
After glanced at Wu Mian, who was full of curiosity and without any concealment, Liu Yunxiao put down the paper and smiled faintly: "It seems that you have doubts about me accepting you as a disciple. But you, a child, are deeply in mind and don't ask... well, I'll make it clear now."
"Good is hidden by misfortune, and misfortune is supported by good fortune. Those who are dead in their destiny are not all bad luck, and sometimes they will gain some special abilities because of this. Just like the feeling of your heart when you write these nine words."
"Your feeling of mind is the whim that Changsheng said before that the mind and spiritual cultivation will be high after he has high spirits."
"If a person who has died in his destiny has this ability, although he will not be able to withstand the destiny in the end, he will still die. However, he can also use this to escape many death disasters and live for a longer period of time. If he can obtain inheritance during this period and become a practitioner in practicing Taoism, he can master the whim before the three flowers gather together."
"And our monument guardian lineage has always been coveting the monsters. Now the monsters near Changshang are ready to move. It is difficult to know what they are planning. We need a talented person like you very much."
"I was a little skeptical about whether you had the ability to be a whim, but Changsheng calculated that you had died last year, but it was nothing big about being able to come to Changshang, which made me think you might have this ability. It happened that you asked to become a disciple again, so I accepted you."
Unexpectedly, Wu Mian, who explained so much, resolved a doubt in his heart, and felt that Liu Yunxiao was lying to him.
But that is not an important thing. Anyway, I have learned everything I should learn, and it is okay to not know the truth about some things, so I smiled and said:
"If I can help the master, the disciple will never refuse."
Liu Yunxiao shook his head and smiled, "It's just that you want to live to help me."
After saying that, he shook the paper in his hand and said, "When Changsheng sent these nine characters, I just thought you, a child, were too crazy. However, now Changsheng asked Mingzhi and others to find out that the Six Demon Mountain was lost and the earth veins were related, which made me think of some things."
"Senior Huang told me before that something seemed to be mixed into the veins of Tianbing Mountain."
His words made both Zhou Changsheng and Wu Mian feel a sudden heart.
Zhou Changsheng asked: "Master, are you saying that the demon of Changshang wants to make the Six Demon Mountain disappear? Unlock the seal of Hun Chaos?"
"Maybe there is a possibility, but I'm not sure." Liu Yunxiao nodded and said, "I will discuss this with Senior Huang and King An. Changsheng, you can think of a solution."
"Here."
After Zhou Changsheng agreed, Liu Yunxiao said, "Okay, you guys go back first."
"Here!"
Seeing Liu Yunxiao say this, Wu Mian and the others bowed and then exited the darkness when they were talking, and they answered questions and answered, and returned to the gate of the North Courtyard.
Zhou Changsheng had nothing, but Wu Mian felt his head was drowsy. Now that he left the place where the Buremote Monument was located, his mind was exhausted, and he suddenly felt his head changed from a wave of drowsy to a wave of throbbing and pain, and his body shook for a moment.
Seeing him like this, Zhou Changsheng frowned and hurriedly held his shoulder.
"What's wrong?"
"It's okay, I just have been practicing the Four Symbols Body Protection Method before, but my mind has not recovered yet. Now I don't return to the monument. I feel that it's a bit expensive."
Zhou Changsheng still frowned: "Have your mind been restored? How many times do you practice it?"
"Seven times." Wu Mian tried his best to say that it could match his cultivation level.
Zhou Changsheng's eyes showed a faint look: "No wonder you were able to practice the White Tiger Soldier Supervising Technique so quickly. It turns out that diligence can make up for your shortcomings. However, being too diligent is not a good thing. Everything must be done, and the same is true for practice."
"With your cultivation, it is not difficult to use the Four Symbols Protective Technique seven times a day, but does restoring your skills also require consuming the mind and energy to refine your internal energy?"
"Often people have a sleep, and their minds have recovered almost all of their minds, but since we are practitioners, it is difficult to recover their minds after sleeping. In addition, you have not fully mastered the mind methods, which is even more so."
"Don't practice the Four Symbols' body protection in the past two days to consume your mind. You should focus on practicing sword first."
