Chapter 668: Quartet
"You...wait for me for a while..." Linghu Shaozi's voice was trembling, which showed that he was extremely shy. After all, this was only a half-year-old girl. It was always difficult to accept being discovered while baking clothes inside.
I was also careless. I usually met some powerful ascetics. They wouldn't touch their clothes when they got into the water, and they wouldn't burn when they were too hot. I didn't care about them for a while, and then I accidentally bumped into them.
But it seemed that the time was not right. I looked down at the bottom of my feet and found that the footprints in the mud were messy. They were the marks of her walking back and forth on this road. She obviously went into the water several times. Could it be that she discovered the Four Immortals?
Is there a secret hidden under the water?
"Shaozi, have you gone into the water to retrieve the relics of Senior Four Immortals?" I couldn't help but ask.
"How...how do you know this? You...have never been in the water." Linghu Shaozi asked me in surprise, but then he said: "Oh. You saw my footprints..."
I secretly thought that the girl's intelligence was not just about being able to do things around, but also that she had the same desire to explore unknown things as I did. Once such a person is eager to learn, he will make great progress.
"You escaped from Master He Qing's house in the middle of the night. Do you know that it will affect all the disciples in the sect and make everyone come to you?" I said calmly.
"I...I was wrong...I didn't know the rules of the sect and I just wanted to come out...to have a look." Linghu Shaozi didn't come to see me, but he put it down to the fact that he was a newbie. In this way, I
It's not easy to punish her.
"Then your running into this gated area was intentional, right?" When talking to a smart child, there is no need to tell the cause and effect, she can naturally relate it.
"Okay... I'm dressed, you can come in." Linghu Shaozi put on his clothes at this time.
I carried her inside, and the bright light of the firewood shone on her body. Her clothes had been washed, and they were not too dirty. It can be seen that she had basically fished out the things under the water, and she had washed the clothes before warming herself by the fire.
of.
In fact, it wasn't that I didn't care about the relics of the Four Immortals at that time, but I felt that getting the fly whisk was enough. After all, I left something behind. I also had a trace of respect for my seniors. Just like a senior who has a heart to leave a treasure, he naturally hopes that the destined person will come.
My own ability is enough, and one more treasure won't make me much better. It's better to let the destined people get it. Maybe for them, those treasures can save their lives.
Didn’t I also save my life with that whisk?
There were several things placed in front of Linghu Shaozi, including an ice crystal iron ruler, which should be a treasure like Luban ruler, a rotating compass, which has been soaked in water for many years and still operates freely, and a bronze sword, which has clear lines and is not sharp.
, but the handwriting of the Four Immortals is clear, and it is definitely a treasure.
There is also a jade slip made of jasper. I don’t know what is recorded in it, but the jasper used must not be ordinary goods. There should have been a whisk, but now that it is in the hands of Senior Brother Hai, it is obvious that every one of the four immortals
Everything is precious and has its use.
"Did you find these in the water?" I asked.
"Well, I found them all, Master, these are all ancient relics..." Linghu Shaozi looked very happy, and he actually wanted to fool me about the forbidden area in the door and going out in the middle of the night.
A lie.
"Master, look at this iron ruler. It's cold in the hand. I heated it with fire and it doesn't conduct heat. There's also the compass, which can rotate on its own. It's quite miraculous. And the sword..." Linghu Shaozi counted all the treasures from his family.
I definitely like it very much in my heart.
It's no wonder that when I got that whisk, I wished I could sleep with it in my arms every night. After all, it was my life.
"You went out in the middle of the night to find me, broke into a forbidden cave, and thought it was my retreat. Then I ask you, why are you looking for me?" I looked at her calmly, not interested in these treasures at all.
After all, at my level, I can tell whether it is immortal energy or other impurities with just a quick glance at it. Although these magic weapons are good, there is still a big gap compared with magic weapons.
"I..." Linghu Shaozi saw that the props couldn't divert my attention, so he could only say honestly: "I came to Tianyi, just to learn from Tianyi... But I didn't learn from Master He Qing, but not from Tianyi.
...So I want to find you..."
"You want to worship me as your teacher?" I roughly guessed the result. I just wanted her to be honest. Looking at her head, I said again: "The way of heaven is based on the lineage of the way that is suitable for the disciples.
Practice, and use your own qualifications to gather more Taoism and advance together. In the end, several Taoisms will converge and be integrated to achieve the true Heavenly Way. You are only in the period of seeking the Tao now. What is the pursuit of the Tao? You have not even found the Taoism. What are you talking about?
Tianyiyi?"
"But...but...I just want to learn from you..." Linghu Shaozi said decisively.
"I live in an unknown place and travel far and wide. How can I teach you how to practice at any time? If you look for me as a teacher, you are not even as good as Master He Qing. Master He Qing is a famous teacher. Do you know what my first master's cultivation is like? But if you look for me as a teacher,
It's just the Tao." I couldn't help but laugh. At that time, I burned incense and worshiped my master, but it was Senior Brother Hai who taught me the yin and yang magic. Thinking about those days makes me laugh.
"Ah? It's impossible..." Linghu Shaozi exclaimed, which shows that there must be a famous teacher at home, at least one who is in the enlightenment stage, otherwise she wouldn't have escaped in the middle of the night.
"Cultivation focuses on the Taoist heart. The Taoist heart is unstable. How to practice? Your heart to seek the Tao is very strong, but the Taoist heart is very weak. If you continue like this, what kind of Tao will you cultivate?" I reprimanded, seeing that she was still in shock.
Without thinking of attacking her again, he said: "Take the treasure and follow me back, so that no one will search for it."
"Senior brother! Senior brother, head master! But are you inside?" Zhang Fei's voice came from outside as expected. It seems that he has also found me.
"I'm in there." I moved my mouth a few times and transmitted the message to Zhang Fei.
Soon Zhang Fei floated in. His Tai Chi skills were pretty good, and now he could move more than just one step. When he came in and saw Linghu Shaozi standing, he breathed a sigh of relief and hurriedly sent a message to the secret question.
I will not hide what happened to me, it will be truthful.
Seeing that Linghu Shaozi was still unwilling to pick up the treasure, I frowned and said somewhat bluffingly: "What? Are you planning to stay here and cultivate Taoism? Do you know what this place is used for?"
Since I asked this, of course she knew it was definitely not a good place. Until Zhang Fei and I buried several bloody corpses here, she turned pale with fright and hurriedly picked up the treasure and left.
It can be seen that Linghu Shaozi is still very disappointed that I don't accept a disciple, and she has been distracted all the way. Like me, she also has a character that doesn't want to ask for help, but she is just bored in her heart.
When we arrived at Jishui Pond, she was still hesitant to swim there. I looked at the treasure in her arms and asked, "Shaozi, do you really want to become my teacher?"
When the girl heard this, she immediately fell to her knees and said, "Please master, please accept me."
"Senior brother, just accept it. She has caused such a fuss. If she goes back this time, she may be punished. The disciples will also reject her. It will be difficult for her to get along in the future." Zhang Fei said with a smile.
Taijimen has experienced too many hardships, such as being beaten, cleaning toilets, etc., so they can see these things clearly.
This is also what I am worried about. After all, this child is not usually capable of making trouble, and seeing her kneeling down so simply, I can only say: "Since you want to worship me as your master so much, I will give you the opportunity to re-elect your master."
Opportunity is nothing but seeking the Tao. After all, it’s all about fate. It’s not that if you want to learn, I will teach you. If you can’t be of the same mind as the master, you won’t be able to achieve it by studying. The master you choose again may be me or Master He Qing.
, or another teacher, but this teacher is definitely the most suitable person for you."
"Master, please teach me." Linghu Shaozi immediately became happy when she heard that I wanted to accept her. But when she heard that she was re-electing her master, she became a little nervous again. She looked at me with her big eyes, and she felt uneasy in her heart.
.How did Hongdong die?
"Return three of the four treasures in your hand, leaving only the one you like the most." I ordered.
"Return three pieces? Oh." Linghu Shaozi looked at the four treasures in confusion. He liked each one so much that he was reluctant to let go of any of them. After struggling for a long time, he jumped into the water.
"Senior brother, what are you doing? Why did you return the treasures you found so easily? They are all top-quality magic weapons. Any one of them is enough to be a Taoist treasure." Seeing the girl get into the water,
Zhang Fei asked me very puzzledly.
I immediately told him about my previous visit to Jishuitan and added my own thoughts.
After hearing this, Zhang Fei suddenly gave a thumbs up in high spirits: "This is good. If I accept a disciple in the future, I will explain it to him like this, hahaha, but... Senior brother, does this have anything to do with re-electing a master?
?”
"Of course there is a connection. Can you see that the four treasures are different?" I asked. After Zhang Fei pondered, I continued: "If she chooses the sword, I will ask Mr. Ding Chen to teach her.
If you choose the Ruler, you will be my grandma’s disciple, and if you choose the Compass, Zhao Qian can’t teach it, and she is the most suitable one.”
"Oh! You teach students in accordance with their aptitude! If you choose this Jasper, senior brother will accept her as a disciple!" Zhang Fei's eyes lit up, and then he began to worry about gains and losses: "Well, if it were me, I would definitely choose that sword, then
The sword looks simple, but it is the best. The worst is the scroll. In the Sutra Pavilion, there is a mountain of these jasper scrolls. Even the compass and ruler are better than it. Hehe. Senior brother, you are a child like her.
, what will you choose?”
"How do I know? I can't understand people's hearts." I laughed. Zhang Fei seemed to have a clear understanding and could also smile.
After a while, Linghu Shaozi came ashore. Because it was not summer yet, the weather was still quite cold. I couldn't bear to torment her like this, so I summoned a gust of hot wind to blow away the cold air on her body and the ice on her clothes.
All the water has dried away.
"Master, I chose this." Linghu Shaozi held the treasure, but his heart was in a state of confusion, and his face showed confusion, as if he was still lost.
