Chapter Fourteen Bandit
Every convening of the scholars' meeting at Laoshan Academy is extremely rare, because the organizer is not only the internal staff of the Academy, but also the participation of the nobles of the court, which is extremely grand.
The main purpose is to test the skills learned by the scholars in the Academy to facilitate the election of talents and focus on training. If they are attracted by any noble, they can reach the top in one step.
Secondly, there will be scholars from other academies and scholars from folks to exchange and discuss.
The leader of the Laoshan Academy is the palace master, and the second-in-command is Lao Fuzi. The following are the four colleges of Shengyao, Shengshu, Shengshu.
The current president of Sheng Academy is the one who has friendship with the old Taoist priest. This person was once a famous scholar, rich and generous, and generous.
Many years ago, when an old Taoist priest was traveling around, a disciple of the Taoist temple caught fire in an alchemy and accidentally burned most of the buildings. It was this gentleman who generously provided help, which helped him rebuild the Taoist temple and overcome the difficulties.
Now that I haven't seen each other for many years, it may be because the dean wants to meet an old friend or some other reason, so he sent an invitation.
Because of this connection, the old Taoist priests naturally didn't want to go to this trip to Laoshan Academy.
Originally, he had no intention of taking his disciples there. After all, he was just meeting an old friend and returning soon, so there was no need to do that.
However, Yun Zhongliu recommended Wang Yan here and talked about his various deeds of studying the scriptures over the past few months, and the old Taoist remembered this person.
Thinking about it, it has been more than eight months since then, and this person is so unafraid of hard work and hard work. His originally greedy and lazy personality has disappeared, but he still has no intention of retreating. It seems that his desire to seek Tao is really firm!
Since this is the case, it is better to take him with you and take this opportunity to increase his horizons, while also honing his mind and ability to deal with things. These will be of great benefit to his future practice.
The scholars' conference will be held in seven days. Due to the long journey, Wang Yan and his disciples set off after three days of lead.
As for Changer, Wang Yan also took a lot of effort and promised to bring delicious food to it when he came back, so he kept it on the mountain and asked his senior brother to take care of it.
It is March, the spring is full of spring on earth, and the birds sing and the flowers are fragrant.
With the old Taoist priest's magical power, he could reach his destination in a blink of an eye as long as he casts a spell, but with Wang Yan following him, he naturally could not be so cheap for this disciple.
Therefore, this entire mountain road is walking throughout the whole journey.
Starting from Taoist temple, we went west along the branch of Laoshan, until now, we have crossed two high mountains and three valleys in a row.
The old Taoist priest walked forward leisurely, holding a whisk in his right hand and carrying it behind his left hand.
It's strange that after walking so far along the mountain road, his Taoist robe was not stained with any dust, and he could not see any fatigue.
On the other hand, although Wang Yan has been practicing martial arts for the past few months, he still can't stand it after walking for so long.
At this moment, he was wearing a gray Taoist robe, carrying a baggage, and found a wooden stick from his right hand from somewhere to serve as a crutch.
The sunset is setting, and before you know it, it is almost dusk.
The afterglow of the setting sun gradually lengthened the two figures on the mountain road.
"A disciple, I've been rushing for a day. I guess you're tired too. After getting off this mountain, you'll find a place to rest!"
The old Taoist priest rushed on the road and said at the same time.
The mountain road in this section is flat and not steep, so it is not that difficult to walk, and Wang Yan can finally take a breath.
"Yes! Master."
After responding, Wang Yan quickly caught up with the crutches.
In the quiet jungle, lush giant trees blocked the last ray of sunlight, making the entire road extremely dark.
"Ah...ah..."
A long crow roared, alarming countless birds, flapping their wings and flying away from the branches quickly.
There are bushes on both sides of the road, surrounded by branches and leaves, and the shadows reflected by the trees are even more like ghosts, and the mountains and forests are a little gloomy.
If he was walking on this mountain road alone, and when night fell, he might be afraid of some poisonous insects and beasts, or even mountain spirits and wild monsters.
However, with the master here, all dangers will no longer be dangerous, and the biggest problem he is facing is hunger.
"Hao!"
Wang Yan was walking in burying his head when suddenly a loud shout came from the front.
“This road…”
"Bah! I've been guarding for a day and I've been guarding two poor Taoist priests. It's so fucking bad luck!"
Three or five figures of human beings, like a ferocious spirit, jumped out of the bushes beside the Tao. They were all covered with black scarves, holding swords and weapons, and were strong.
The leader saw their clothes clearly, and even saved the most basic jargon. He spoke with a burst of curse.
It turned out that I had encountered a bandit.
Wang Yan reacted, and no turmoil occurred in his heart.
What’s the point of worrying about a bandit!
Even if there is a monster, isn’t there still a master who can support it?
"Emperorable Life Blessing! Several heroes are polite. We, the master and disciple, went down the mountain to visit friends, but there was no wealth. I hope that some of you will be able to do it for convenience and let me wait for it. I will definitely come to the mountain to thank you in the future!"
Seeing these bandits, the old Taoist priest calmly stepped forward and bowed his head, saying politely.
"Hmph! Taoist priest is so serious! Since he is going down the mountain to visit friends, how can he not bring money? The man has been guarding this for a day, so he can't be in vain. You can let you go, but you have to leave that baggage."
They were quite polite about this. If they met ordinary passers-by, they would not be so nonsense. They would just get started and snatch it.
Just because of this, there are three types of people who cannot provoke him.
One is monks like monks and Taoists, the second is poor scholars wearing weapons, and the third is crazy beggars running around.
They naturally know this taboo, so they will not violate it if they can.
But now is different from the past. Several people have been squatting for several days, but they haven't caught a fat sheep, and they are naturally filled with resentment in their hearts.
Now I finally squatted two people, and even if the geese want to fly past from now on, they have to pull out a few hairs.
Seeing that they had no intention of giving way, the old Taoist priest looked at Wang Yan, looking like he was making him take care of himself, and then took big steps.
"Hero! The bag is in my disciple's place. You can ask him for it. As for me, I would like to ask some of you to help me!"
As soon as this said, the bandit in the lead was stunned for a moment, but then he understood. It seemed that this old Taoist priest was also afraid of death!
When the disaster comes, each one flies. Not to mention the master and apprentice, even the biological brothers will only choose to protect themselves first in times of crisis.
Are there few such things in the world?
He reached out and touched the old Taoist priest, but found nothing, and winked. The strong men behind him made way.
"Get out! I'm unlucky when I meet you."
The old Taoist priest thanked him, looked back at Wang Yan, and an indescribable smile appeared on his face, leaving along the road.
"Boy, your master no longer cares about you. If you know the truth, hurry up and take out the money. Brothers who don't want to do it themselves."
The strong man in the lead waved his sword and pointed directly at Wang Yan.
Even if the old Taoist priest can't afford to offend him, can't the young Taoist priest still afford to offend him?
Judging from his weak appearance, how could he compete with the five of them?
Wang Yan didn't expect this scene.
The master just left like this? No matter how he is? As a role model, do you still have any conscience?
In the eyes of all the disciples, the master has always been an unattainable and mysterious and kind image. I really didn’t expect that he would have such a side. It turns out that the older he is, the smaller the heart is?
Although he was just ordinary bandits who could handle it, he left so calmly, as if he was aware of the result and did not worry about his safety at all.
Could it be that the master deliberately left it for him to practice?
When I think back to his smile, this possibility is quite high.
But no matter what, they can't take the burden away.
After practicing boxing for so long, I was worried that there was no place to perform it. No matter what the reason was, since someone has come to the door, it is a god-given opportunity, so how can I let it go?
As he looked at the bandits, Wang Yan's mouth raised slightly, showing a harmless smile of humans and animals.
