"Apprentice? Follow me? Ah... I really don''t know how to answer when you suddenly say so. I didn''t expect that you, a young man, could see through the aura of an expert hidden for many years..."

    The Taoist priest smiled with disapproval, and his words were boundless, but his eyes were very clear.

    This makes Wang Sheng feel uneasy.

    If you want to hurry, you can''t reach it. Wang Sheng doesn''t dare to kneel down and kowtow here and forcibly worship the master. He can only look back with his most sincere eyes when the Taoist priest looks at himself.

    The tall and thin Taoist staggered his eyes and asked with a smile, "if you want to learn martial arts, there are some Taoist schools teaching martial arts on the mountain."

    Wang Sheng said earnestly, "Taoist priest, I came to Wudang Mountain to seek immortals and Taoism, to worship teachers and follow my master''s practice. As soon as I saw the Taoist priest, I knew I had found it."

    The tall and thin Taoist frowned, "if you can say that learning martial arts is still reliable, open your mouth and shut your mouth is to cultivate immortality and Taoism... Little monk, have you ever seen someone who can learn Taoism?"

    Wang Sheng had long thought of how to deal with it. He said, "I''m stupid. I''ve been studying Taoist classics since I went to school. I think Tao is a kind of spirit, a different understanding of heaven, earth and the universe, and also the spiritual sustenance I want to pursue."

    "Er..."

    The tall and thin Taoist smiled and didn''t give much advice. He pointed to the direction of Zixia palace, "there''s no Taoist priest there?"

    "Yes or no," Wang Sheng didn''t know what to say for a while, "but I couldn''t find the master I wanted to worship after searching all over Wudang Mountain, but I met Taoist priest you here... As soon as I saw you, I knew that he was an extraordinary person. Please accept his disciples anyway."

    Thousands of people wear flattery but don''t wear it. Wang Sheng also feels a little ashamed.

    The Taoist priest was dumbfounded and stood up slowly from the cane chair. Wang Shengcai saw that the great master who would be famous in a few years was more than one head taller than himself at this time.

    Er, I won''t fully open until I''m 19

    The Taoist priest stands tall with drooping shoulders and stable breath. Although his image is sloppy, he has an unspeakable style.

    Maybe this is the real monk.

    Even if I haven''t had the strength to embark on the real road of cultivation, I have honed myself for decades. At this time, I can still have a charm emanating from my bones.

    This invisible accumulation, as long as the vitality of heaven and earth fills itself, will usher in a very terrible outbreak!

    Wang Sheng made up his mind that the master would worship anyway

    Listen to the Taoist priest Wen Sheng, who sells Wulin Secrets:

    "You''re an interesting young man. You talk about Taoism. You''re picky. What''s more ridiculous is that you look at Taoist priest me?

    Countless people come to Wudang Mountain to worship teachers and seek Taoism every year. As long as you go to the mountain to find a master and give some incense, you can naturally practice on the mountain.

    I just hang a name in Wudang Mountain, but I won''t teach my disciples to chant scriptures and worship God. Although there is a disciple, I don''t care about her on weekdays. "

    Although the Taoist said so, he was looking at Wang Sheng''s face and thought this seedling was very good.

    "It seems that this young man has been robbed, but at this time it is a sign of having been robbed. Perhaps it was because of this disaster that he had some resistance to his original living environment that he thought of becoming a monk. "

    So, the Taoist priest actually thinks Wang Sheng can get started.

    Wang Sheng clenched his teeth and whispered, "Taoist priest, the disciple is stupid and doesn''t know what to say. I really want to follow the Taoist priest in practice. I''d like to cut my hair, get into the door, accept the Taoist discipline and be a clean Taoist in the mountain."

    "Oh?" the Taoist priest frowned slightly. "Do you know what you''re talking about?"

    Wang Sheng nodded solemnly, "well, I know."

    The Taoist priest thought a little, sat back in the rattan chair and asked in a tone, "do you have parents?"

    "There are parents. They also follow. They are right behind. The Taoist priest will see them later."

    Wang Sheng turned his head and looked. His parents had started down.

    After a little thought, Wang Sheng said, "my parents are fashionable and healthy, and my disciples won''t worry too much about practicing in the mountains. When they get old, my disciples will serve them with filial piety."

    "Well, it''s kind of sincere of you to have your parents come with you... I thought it was another guy who saw many novels and movies and ran out of home. He really became the Wudang Mountain police station and bought the account of LV Zu Zhenwu emperor of Sanqing."

    The road was not light but heavy, and he said a few words, "I can''t make complaints about the apprentices. I don''t have much discipline in the way, but I don''t feel very reluctant to bring an apprentice. I have three questions. If you can answer it, let your parents come over to talk to me."

    "Yes!" Wang Sheng almost grinned.

    Nowadays, most of the young people who go to these famous Taoist mountains are just to learn martial arts, and few will become a monk at a young age.

    Wang Sheng took a deep breath and looked at the Taoist priest with burning eyes.

    The Taoist priest glanced at the corner of his mouth, "don''t look at me like that. I''m a certified serious Taoist."

    Wang Sheng also smiled, quickly restrained his smile, bowed his head and said, "excuse me."

    "Qing Yanzi, it''s really the big man.

    Wang Sheng was stunned at first, then grinned, realized that he had passed the pass and answered the previous three questions.

    Listen to Qing Yanzi''s way: "this little monk wants to worship me as a teacher and practice. I, uh huh, I see that he is quite Taoist and has the idea of accepting disciples. It''s just that to practice as a monk, you must have the consent of your parents. I don''t know what you think?"

    "Becoming a monk? That''s not good!"

    After listening to his mother, Wang Sheng knew that he couldn''t worship his teacher today.

    I have no choice but to find a way to convince my parents and let them come with me to find wuyanzi.

    How to persuade? The big deal is that Wang Sheng doesn''t want this face in front of his parents. He cries, makes trouble and goes on hunger strike!

    It''s not easy to find such a big tree as Qingyanzi. It''s absolutely necessary to tie it tightly!

    Maybe Wang Sheng''s face was a little lost. Wang Sheng''s father pulled his wife and asked Qingyanzi to go aside, "Taoist priest, let''s talk here and here."

    Wang Sheng wanted to follow, but was stopped by his father''s gesture. He had to stand next to the suitcase and wait.

    Alas, the ancients did not deceive me.

    A few minutes later, Qing Yanzi came back with a spring face. Wang Sheng''s parents also followed the Taoist priest with a smile of "now we can rest assured".

    Wang Sheng almost knows what the trial result is.

    "Wang Sheng?" Qing Yanzi called him.

    Seeing the big man smiling at himself, Wang Sheng quickly replied, "yes, the disciple is here."

    "Since your parents don''t object to your practice, you can stay on the mountain for a while. Accompany your parents to the hotel at the foot of the mountain for another day tonight. Go up the mountain tomorrow morning and wait for me here."

    After saying that, he drifted away and didn''t even accept the broken book stand.

    What the hell?

    Wang Sheng stared at his father and looked at his mother. The couple suddenly showed a kind smile.

    Dad waved his big hand, "go away, son, go down the mountain and find a hotel for one night!"

    "Dad, mom? What''s going on?" Wang Sheng scratched his head for a while, pinched his thigh, and took a cold breath in pain.

    "Let''s go," his mother came over and took Wang Sheng''s arm. "Why don''t you go up the mountain to build a road? My parents are sure!"

    Listen, why can''t you believe it with a punctuation mark.

    There''s a conspiracy.

    There must be a conspiracy!
