Chapter 19: The Apprentice

(Thanks to Longmeng for his thousand coins reward, I suddenly remembered the line from "Shaolin Football", and I'm back...)

The next day, when Zhao Lingtai went to fetch water, he found that Anu was already waiting there. Seeing him, Anu didn't speak, but just stared at him with bright eyes.

Zhao Lingtai didn't say anything, just focused on doing his own thing.

On the third day, the same scene was staged, and the atmosphere was quite strange, but fortunately no one was paying attention to it.

On the fourth day, when Zhao Lingtai was picking up the bucket and leaving, Anu suddenly said, "I need an apprentice. Are you willing to help me?"

Zhao Lingtai stopped and looked over: "But I don't like to make irons or make swords. If I become an apprentice, I will only watch from the side."

"Can."

Anu's attitude is very straightforward.

Zhao Lingtai asked: "Why?"

"I said you are like a person."

“That’s all?”

Annu suddenly laughed: "It's enough."

Zhao Lingtai also smiled: "Okay, I agree."

In this way, Lao Li Zhao Awang transformed into an apprentice in the iron shop.

This incident made the laborers excited and all of them were happy for Zhao Lingtai, thinking that he had entered the Lingtai portal. Everyone did not know Anu's identity and status in Lingtai, but those who could open iron shops on the outer door were naturally from the Sword Sect.

The outer sect of the Sword Sect was in an uproar and talked a lot about this matter.

On the Lingtai, Anu is an absolute weirdo, independent and special, and rarely talks to others. He cannot practice Taoism and does not learn swords. Over the past few decades, he has been wasted many heavy iron and mysterious gold, which makes the disciples understand and are quite slandered. Unfortunately, Anu is a transcendent person, a veteran of the Sword Sect, and is protected by the heads and others. When the disciples see it, they can only call him "Uncle Master".

Anu was alone and always alone. Now, she actually took a labor force as an apprentice. It was really strange.

What's even more strange is still coming.

Zhao Lingtai did what he said. After arriving at the iron shop, he neither made iron or made swords nor even did the work of carrying water. Instead, he built a bamboo chair and lay up, either basking in the sun or closing his eyes to rest.

But Anu didn't care at all and let him be free.

It looks like Zhao Lingtai is like a master, while Annu is an apprentice!

The strange behavior is always full of absurdity.

Ding Ding Ding Ding Ding Ding Ding Ding Ding Ding!

The hammer rises and falls, making a crisp sound.

Zhao Lingtai, who was lying on the bamboo chair, asked, "I heard those disciples call you "Uncle Master". So, why did you get here to make a blacksmith?"

"I came out myself."

Anu answered in a muffled voice.

Upon hearing this, Zhao Lingtai nodded slightly, felt a little happy, and asked again: "Why? Isn't it better to live in the mountain?"

"Not good, I'm so bored."

Still a simple answer.

Zhao Lingtai looked at the misty clouds and said slowly: "If you are tall, you will be isolated from the world. It is rare that you have the will to walk down."

With a sound, Annu lost his weight in his hand and smashed it heavily. Mars flew. He looked back suddenly and stared at Zhao Lingtai.

Zhao Lingtai said again as if he was unaware of it: "But tomorrow, I want to go up the mountain."

The next day, after breakfast, Zhao Lingtai started to go up the mountain. He was an apprentice of the iron shop, but he was not an Anu's disciple, and he was not even a registered disciple. Logically, he was not qualified to go up the mountain.

When we arrived at the Yamaguchi, we were indeed stopped by two disciples in charge of guarding.

Zhao Lingtai didn't talk nonsense, but directly showed a wooden waist tag.

The brand is slapped in a slap, about six inches long, with a bamboo yellow color. The back is depicted with the unique logo of the Lingtai Sword School, and the front is engraved with a big "four" character like a dragon and phoenix.

This is Annu's portable waist card, which represents his identity and was actually given to Zhao Lingtai.

The two guardian disciples were shocked and looked at each other, unable to make a decision. One kept it, and the other ran up the mountain to report.

Not long after, the peak leader Jiang Shanghan came down!

Jiang Shanghan was not tall and very strong, with a bunch of short beards. He came to Zhao Lingtai, looked at the token, and then his eyes fell on Zhao Lingtai, and his eyes burst into purple light. This is the spiritual eye power that only reaches the level of Yuanqi, and it is much higher than the magic eye power.

Eyes stare from head to toe.

This young man is indeed not ordinary, because he has learned the secret, to some extent, he has embarked on the path of practicing Taoism.

The root bone seems to be good.

But that's all.

There are actually many people in the world who have a foundation for cultivation. It is only the path of cultivation that becomes more difficult as the later it reaches. In the normal division of states, only by practicing the Tongxuan realm can one be considered a real entry.

This is also one of the standards for becoming an inner disciple of the Lingtai Sword Sect.

"Just because he can enlighten him, the fourth brother accepted him as an apprentice?"

Jiang Shanghan thought to himself, but shook his head again, and then he ordered the two guardian disciples: "Let this guy go up the mountain."

Zhao Lingtai grinned: "Thank you."

As he said that, he walked up the mountain trail.

The two guardian disciples looked at each other and understood the meaning in their eyes: Master Anu's apprentice was so heartless. Didn't he know that the decent master of Zuo Lingfeng Peak, known as "crossing the river with one sword and cold water"?

It's no wonder, after all, Jiang Shanghan did not reveal his identity. Zhao Lingtai's ignorant and fearless behavior is normal.

Jiang Shanghan didn't care about this, he felt that he wanted to have a good talk with Anu.

"You accepted an apprentice?"

When I arrived at the iron shop, Jiang Han was straight to the point.

"Yes."

Anu waved the hammer and did not look up.

"If you like that boy, why don't you just accept it as a disciple?"

Anu still buried her head and beat her: "I have nothing to teach him, nor are I qualified to be his master."

Jiang Shanghan thought he was complaining and sighed: "If you speak, I think that no matter me or the boss, you will agree to accept him."

"No need. If he wants to get started, he will rely on his own ability."

Jiang Shanghan hesitated for a moment: "But you gave him your waist card."

No matter what sect, the waist card is very important. It represents the status of the holder, so it must be kept with you at all times. If you lose it, you must report it immediately, and you must not easily trade it to others.

These are all rules.

Anu stopped the hammer and turned his head: "So, are you here to ask for guilt?"

Jiang Shanghan asked back: "What crime is there?"

The Sword Sect also stipulates that when an elder or above, those who are sent to do business, the person who serves the service can bring their own waist cards to show their identity, but generally many people carry handwritten instructions.

Anu is not an elder and has no position in the Sword Sect, but his identity is special, but he is more transcendent than the nine elders.

Annu snorted: "Do you suspect that he was a nail sent by an external enemy? Humph, I don't believe you haven't seen him."

Jiang Shanghan nodded: "I've seen it, it's very clean, and the roots and bones are OK."

Anu turned around and looked bright: "Did you just see these?"

Jiang Shanghan was a little puzzled: "What do you think is there?"

Ding Ding Ding Ding Ding Ding Ding Ding Ding Ding!

But Anu waved his hammer again: "It's good to be clean... Third brother, if you still recognize me as the fourth brother, then the young man will walk in the sect in the future. As long as he doesn't violate the rules of the sect, let him do it. He should be a weird person."
