Chapter 2 A Taoist Priest
As soon as these words were spoken, most of the people present couldn't help but exclaim in a low voice.
"Ye Suzhen?" Li Yuansong's expression changed drastically, but he was surprised and happy. He hurriedly said, "You are Ye Suzhen? Ye Suzhen, the closed disciple of the head coach Lu?"
Although Lu Xiaofei stood far away, he had a keen ear. When the words "Ye Suzhen" were spit out from the young Taoist priest's mouth, he heard it in his ears, but a thunder exploded in his heart.
The Taoist priest was not surprised when he faced Li Yuansong's surprise. He said, "I am Ye Suzhen, and I am indeed the last disciple of Master Lu."
When Li Yuansong heard this, his expression changed again. He immediately bowed and said seriously: "Li Yuansong, a lay disciple under Chongzhen, has seen his uncle!"
Everyone in the courtyard was shocked to see this.
The famous Changzhou Iron Sword actually calls a Taoist priest who is only in his twenties "Uncle Master"?!
But Ye Suzhen stepped forward lightly, reached out to support Li Yuansong, and said, "Hero Li is so polite. His seniority is just a rule of the master. Now I am not in Qingcheng Mountain, so Li Daxia doesn't have to be so polite. If we talk about the rules of the world, I am just a younger generation."
Li Yuansong said seriously: "Li's art is from Chongzhen. Although he has left his master for many years, he has never forgotten that he is a disciple of Chongzhen Sword Sect one day. Chongzhen Qi Zhenren is my teacher and will be a teacher for life. Master Lu is even more respected by me throughout his life. As Master Lu's disciple of Master Lu, he is my uncle of Li Yuansong. This etiquette must be followed by Li Yuansong."
Although everyone in the yard was surprised by Ye Suzhen's origin, most of them knew that Li Yuansong was a registered disciple of Chongzhen Qi Huayang, and Chongzhen's head sect Lu Huaichen was Qi Huayang's master. Although Ye Suzhen was young, as the closed disciple of the head sect, he had a very high seniority in Chongzhen. According to the rules of the Chongzhen Sword Sect, Ye Suzhen was the same generation as Qi Huayang, so Li Yuansong should indeed call him uncle.
But Ye Suzhen scratched her head and said embarrassedly: "Actually, I don't like those red tape the most. When I was in Qingcheng Mountain, they saw me calling me as if I was a few decades old, which made me feel uncomfortable. This time I went down the mountain, and it was rare to be free and quiet for a few days. Besides, Li Daxia is now famous, and even Senior Brother Qi often mentions it recently, and I admire it very much. Besides, this place is thousands of miles away from Qingcheng Mountain, so Li Daxia doesn't have to be polite."
Li Yuansong still looked awe-inspiring and said respectfully: "Although Uncle Master is young, his character is so open-minded and clear. As expected, the young hero is extraordinary. No wonder Master Lu takes you as a closed disciple. Uncle Master is here today. Li is excited, but he just doesn't greet him in time. He hopes that Uncle Master will let him go. Although Li has been away from Chongzhen for many years, he always keeps in mind the principle of respecting his teacher and respecting the Tao. The three words "Li Daxia" must not be called again, otherwise I will be uneasy."
These words, with respect and courtesy, made Ye Suzhen smile bitterly. He shrugged helplessly, sighed slightly, and said, "I often heard from Senior Brother Qi that when Li Daxia was worshipping Zhen, except for his high talent in swordsmanship, he valued the most etiquette and refused to surpass the rules in everything. When he saw him today, it was true. Since Li Daxia insisted, I can only call you "Mr. Nephew."
Li Yuansong bowed and said, "Uncle Master should do this."
Ye Suzhen smiled indifferently and spread her hands and said, "I am far from you. In Qingcheng Mountain, they often shake their heads and say that I am the most unruly person. Even my senior brother often says that I am not a good teacher or elder at all. Now I see that my junior brother can still keep his original intentions, which really makes me admire him."
"Mr. Master is so serious, Li is so ashamed." Li Yuan paused and continued, "Dare you dare to ask Master Master, how can Zhen Zhenren be safe? Since Li left Chongzhen, he has been trapped by civil affairs and has never visited the Master again for twenty years. I feel ashamed."
After saying that, he sighed heavily.
Ye Suzhen didn't care and said, "Senior Brother Qi has cultivated his character over the years and everything is well. Before I went down the mountain, my master had already passed on the position of the head sect to the senior brother. Now he is the new head of the Chongzhen Sword Sect."
As soon as this statement was made, many people in the yard could not help but whisper. Few people in the Chongzhen Sect have appeared in the gang in recent years, so many inside information are unknown to the outside world. Now that the news that the Chongzhen Master has changed hands has been said from Ye Suzhen, it is certainly true.
However, it is said that although Lu Huaichen is nearly 70 years old, his Taoist sword cultivation is extremely powerful and his physical and mental health is even more important than his prime. During his forty years in charge of Chongzhen, the Chongzhen Sect made the world famous. Now he is in line with the "Chunqiu Pavilion" and "Sword Sect" of the two major sects in the martial arts world, and is hidden in the three-legged tripod of the Central Plains Jianghu. Now he is quietly passing the position of the head sect to Qi Huayang, the first disciple. The reason is naturally not something outsiders can know, but this news is enough to shock the Jianghu.
When Li Yuansong heard this, his expression changed and said, "It turns out that Zhenren Qi is the new leader of Chongzhen. Although Li has been in the world for a long time, he has only learned the news now. It is really shameful. Such a major event should be for me to go to Qingcheng to congratulate me. I never thought that I would ask my uncle to come to Changzhou to congratulate me. Li was really frightened."
Ye Suzhen shook his head and said, "Hero Li...uh... the senior nephew is so serious. There are very few people who know about this in the world now. It is because the master and senior brother don't want to be too troublesome, so he never talks with the outside world. This is no wonder the senior nephew." He was born casual, and it was really awkward to say the word " senior nephew" from him. But seeing Li Yuansong's persistence, Ye Suzhen could only respect it. He continued, "The news that the senior nephew is going to quit the world has reached Chongzhen, and the senior brother was quite surprised, but he also said that the senior nephew was
For more than 20 years, he has become famous for his Chongzhen sword skills in the world. He has never forgotten his original intention of becoming a master and practicing swordsmanship. Now he has chosen to retreat bravely, and this enlightenment is even more extraordinary, so he sent me to celebrate the ceremony, which is not in vain for your senior brother to play with your master and disciple." Ye Suzhen said, while taking out an exquisite dark wooden box about a foot long and short from his body and handed it to Li Yuansong, saying, "There are twelve top-grade elixirs refined by Chongzhen in this box, which was chosen by the senior brother as a congratulations to his nephew."
Li Yuansong looked trepidated and bowed again and said tremblingly: "Li is ashamed of accepting such a tribute..."
Ye Suzhen smiled and said, "The elders cannot refuse, please accept it, my nephew."
Everyone in the courtyard secretly envied. Although the Chongzhen School has been known to the world for decades, its origin is from Taoism, so the disciples of the disciples will naturally practice elixirs and make medicines while practicing swords and Taoism. Even if the elixirs in the box do not have the legendary effect of resurrection, they at least have magical medicines that can help those who practice martial arts improve their own cultivation. Such elixirs are of extraordinary value and are not something that ordinary people can get at will.
The Chongzhen Sect can send Ye Suzhen to the Li family with such a heavy courtesy, which obviously has recognized Li Yuansong, a former registered disciple.
Li Yuansong's face was panicked and surprised. He was a very smart person. He knew that some words needed to be stopped. If he refused politely now, he would probably make others feel hypocritical and artificial. So when Ye Suzhen said that, he stopped pushing it away. He still took the box respectfully, bent down and took the box with cautious hands, and then said loudly: "Li Yuansong, a disciple of the Chongzhen Lesbian in Qingcheng, thank you for your kindness!" After saying that, tears flashed in his eyes, and he was obviously very excited.
Ye Suzhen still smiled faintly.
Everyone in the courtyard couldn't help but cheer. In their eyes, Li Yuansong had made a lot of face at this moment. Even if he was about to withdraw from the world, he would have the chance to become famous in the martial arts world again.
Huo Zhendong beside Li Yuansong was also excited. He patted the former's shoulder and said, "Brother Li, Ye Xiaozhen came here for thousands of miles. I believe that all the seniors of the Chongzhen Sword Sect also recognized and loved you very much. Brother Li has been in the world for so many years, and has been fighting against uneven heroes and righteousness, and his virtues are worthy of the word "hero". That is why he is highly respected by everyone. Huo is fortunate to have friends with you for many years, which is considered to be a regret in this life." Although he is a few years younger than Li Yuansong, he has nothing to do with Chongzhen. In order to show respect, he called Ye Suzhen "Ye Xiaozhen".
Although Li Yuansong was very happy, his face was not revealed. He shook his head and said, "Brother Huo is so serious. Li has been in the world for many years. He first received the guidance of his master and then benefited from the support and support of his fellow practitioners. Therefore, he has now escaped without any hesitation. Whether it is the missionary grace of the master or the protection of everyone, Yuansong will be inscribed with the five inner world and will never forget each other."
Huo Zhendong smiled and said, "Today, everyone present is brother Li's relatives and friends, so naturally there is no need to be polite." He looked at Ye Suzhen and said with a smile, "We are already well-known for the name of Chongzhen in Qingcheng, and Zhenren Lu is a martial arts legend. Unfortunately, we ordinary people have no chance to see the true face, which is a pity in our life. However, today we can actually meet Ye Suzhen, Ye Xiaozhen, who is known as Chongzhen for a century, which is worthy of this trip." After saying that, he clasped his fists and bowed to Ye Suzhen.
Ye Suzhen's eyes stopped on Huo Zhendong's hands, and then bowed and replied, "If you guessed correctly, this is Huo Zhendong, Huo Daxia? Xiaodao is just a young man who went down the mountain for the first time. How dare you deserve Huo Daxia such praise? Huo Daxia's courtesy is so respectful!"
A look of surprise flashed across Huo Zhendong's face and he hurriedly said, "Ye Xiaozhen actually recognized Huo for the first time he left Qingcheng Mountain?"
Ye Suzhen smiled and said, "Although Xiaodao has never wandered around the world, he often reads allusions and anecdotes in the world of Jianghuo in Qingcheng Mountain, and heard all the senior brothers discussing the people and affairs in the world. As for Huo Daxia Xiaodao, Xiaodao, was the first time to meet today, but Huo Daxia's thunder boxing is famous in the martial arts world. Xiaodao can guess seven or eight points by looking at Huo Daxia's hands. In addition, everyone in the world knows that Huo Daxia is the best friend of Li's nephew, and often travels with him in the world. Today, Li's nephew is going to withdraw from the world. I think Huo Daxia will naturally not be absent for such a big event. Therefore, Xiaodao dared to claim Huo Daxia's name, but fortunately there was no joke. I hope Huo Daxia should not be accused of it."
Huo Zhendong's heart moved and thought to himself that the young Taoist priest had a sharp look! By observing the other person's image characteristics, he could immediately confirm the other person's approximate identity based on some content he had heard. This kind of old Taoist thought came from a young man who was only in his twenties. It seemed that Ye Suzhen, who had never walked around the world but had long been famous, was indeed a bit famous.
Three years ago, the head of Chongzhen sect Lu Huaichen on his 70th birthday. The heads of various major sects who had contact with Chongzhen Sword Sect in the martial arts world went to Qingcheng Mountain to celebrate their birthdays. Then, a news came from the people of the leader of the sect that he had seen a closed disciple of the sect. He was so talented that he was so amazing that he had seven or eight points of the true teachings of Lu Huaichen at a young age. His cultivation level was even more powerful than that of Qi Huayang, the first eldest disciple of Lu Huaichen, and he was a genius that was rare in the world in a century. Once this news was said, everyone in the world was curious about this person. Unfortunately, the closed disciple of Chongzhen Sect had not taken a step in Qingcheng Mountain, so people could only imagine and guess, but no one could know the true appearance.
The closed disciple of Lu Huaichen was named Ye Suzhen. He was given a title in the world - Chongzhen's surprise!
Huo Zhendong couldn't help but look at the handsome young Taoist priest in front of him seriously, and bowed again: "Ye Xiaozhenren is so serious. Although Xiaozhenren has never traveled to the world, he has a clever mind and a superman. He is indeed worthy of being the closed disciple of Zhenren Lu. No wonder he is called a genius in the Chongzhen Sword Sect in a century."
He said this very respectful and politely. Although others didn't think it was different, Ye Suzhen was naturally casual and never liked to be polite. So when he heard these words, he felt a little uncomfortable.
But even if he doesn't like these pleasing occasions, he still has the etiquette that he should have. Ye Suzhen naturally understands the principle that he cannot be rude to others. So he quickly waved his hand and smiled bitterly: "Sir Huo, don't joke about the little things anymore. I'm just a little Taoist priest in Qingcheng Mountain. As for those rumors in the world, they are all polite words from fellow gangs in the world that politely praised the Chongzhen Sword Sect and the master of the family. How can I take it seriously? I have heard those words, and even I feel very awkward and incredible." While smiling awkwardly, he habitually reached out and knocked his forehead.
Everyone had heard the rumors in the world before, but today I saw the real person. Although he was amazed by Ye Suzhen's extraordinary appearance, he could not see the depth of his cultivation. However, seeing Ye Suzhen's casual personality, he actually caused laughter when he said this.
Huo Zhendong also laughed and said, "Zhen Ye Xiaozhen is too modest. The so-called master is not a vain scholar, and the old Master Lu is such a god. Since he can accept you as the last disciple, he must have a unique vision. In time, Zhenzhen Ye will surely be famous all over the world and benefit the family."
Ye Suzhen seemed to have no intention of continuing to be polite. He bowed his hand slightly and said, "Thank you, Hero Huo, for your approval." Then he turned to Li Yuansong and said, "The time is approaching, and Nephew Li cannot miss the good time. Please go over and prepare quickly."
Li Yuansong hurriedly said, "Then please ask the uncle to go to the central hall to sit so that Yuansong can respect the rituals of the future generations." After saying that, he bowed deeply.
Ye Suzhen's expression changed, his hands shook, and hurriedly said, "Don't have to do this. I followed the master's sect to call you a junior nephew, which is to respect you and respect your respect. If you abandon these sect rules, I have to call you a senior. Besides, I have never liked the trouble of complicated and common rituals, so I hope my nephew will not make things difficult. It's good to just have a few cups of tea here."
Li Yuansong frowned and said anxiously: "How can this make me? Uncle Master is here, but he cannot respect the above ceremonies. If an outsider who is ignorant of the inside knows it, wouldn't he scold me for not understanding etiquette and rules for being confused?"
Ye Suzhen had made up his mind and said, "Mr. Nephew, don't be too worried. It's because I, Ye Suzhen, cannot accept this great gift. It has nothing to do with Nephew. Everyone present is witness." He stepped forward, and a hint of embarrassment appeared on his handsome face. Then he said to Li Yuansong: "I'm not hiding it, I've had enough of the red tape in Qingcheng Mountain Committee. I finally got down the mountain and could be free for a while. I hope my nephew can be comfortable."
Seeing that he was determined, Li Yuansong naturally couldn't force it anymore. At this moment, he saw Ye Suzhen move out of the steps and he did what he wanted. So he sighed softly and said, "Since Uncle Master insists, Yuansong can only obey. However, Yuansong has something to ask for, and I hope Uncle Master will accept it." After that, he bowed and bowed.
Ye Suzhen raised his hand and helped him up, and had to bite the bullet and said, "Mr. Please tell me, I will not refuse if I can."
Li Yuansong was overjoyed and said, "When it comes to work today, uncle must stay in the humble house for a few more days so that Yuansong can finish his friendship with the landlord."
Ye Suzhen smiled indifferently and said, "I don't dare to disturb you if I stay for a few more days, but when it comes to your affairs, my senior brother still has a few words to me to convey on his behalf."
"Ah?" Li Yuansong looked a little surprised, but he immediately returned to his joy and said, "This is also very good. Uncle Master, please wait a moment, please forgive Yuansong for losing his companion." After saying that, he bowed deeply.
Ye Suzhen hurriedly said, "You are the first to go."
Li Yuansong left on his own and went to the inner hall. Although most of the people in the courtyard, including Huo Zhendong, were still on Ye Suzhen, the protagonist today was still Li Yuansong, so he gathered with Li Yuansong to the inner hall. The space in front of Ye Suzhen was instantly found. The young Taoist priest couldn't help but breathe a long sigh and his expression was much more relaxed.
Ye Suzhen casually found a stool beside her and sat down, then poured herself a cup of tea, and then turned her eyes to the lively crowd in the yard.
