Chapter 124: Monkhood(1/2)
Of course, the two of them immediately thought of Qiu Yuanzi back then.
"So our son can really become an immortal?"
Naturally, the couple also mentioned Qiu Yuanzi to Xuanzhen.
Xuanzhen was surprised at first, thinking that Xu Sheng had already accepted another Taoist disciple as his disciple.
However, I learned that Qiu Yuanzi never appeared again after he left and did not accept Xu Sheng as his disciple.
He no longer cared about this matter.
Later, Xuanzhen said that Xu Sheng's immortal roots were extraordinary and that if he devoted himself to cultivating Taoism, he should achieve success.
However, cultivating the Tao requires becoming a monk and practicing with concentration, and very few people can endure the hardships.
Everything depends on the will.
He also knew that Yang Zhenwu and Xu Xinlan were reluctant to let their son become a Taoist priest.
But at this time Xu Sheng expressed that he wanted to be a Taoist priest and wanted to practice with the Taoist master.
Yang Zhenwu and Xu Xinlan couldn't help but be surprised. They didn't expect that Xu Sheng himself would take the initiative to say this.
Originally, they were still struggling!
After all, it would be a great opportunity for my son to embark on the path to immortality.
But they are really reluctant to let their son become a monk.
Xuanzhen also said with slight surprise that although Xu Sheng was physically young, he was born early due to the nourishment of his spiritual roots and was much smarter than ordinary children.
He had never thought about the possibility of Bingjie reincarnation. After all, there were too few people who could succeed in this way.
Finally, Xuanzhen gave a solution, that is, Xu Sheng should not become a monk first.
He could teach Xu Sheng some cultivation methods and let Xu Sheng practice at home first.
When Xu Sheng grows up, he comes again. If Xu Sheng still wants to practice Taoism, he will accept Xu Sheng as his disciple.
After all, there are many difficulties and obstacles in the path of cultivating the Tao. If your will is not strong enough, it is impossible to achieve enlightenment, so it is better not to practice.
Yang Zhenwu and Xu Xinlan both agreed.
In this way, Xu Sheng can still stay with them, and the decision made after Xu Sheng grows up will be relatively more reliable.
Xuanzhen stayed at the Yang family for a few days after that, and he taught Xu Sheng some of the techniques he used in his initial practice.
Xu Sheng was surprised to find that martial arts had not improved in the past hundred years, but Taoist techniques seemed to have evolved more than a hundred years ago.
Some of the concepts of Xuanzhen Religion seem to be more advanced than those collected by Xu Sheng a hundred years ago.
But it is understandable if you think about it. After all, the Taoist sect has received preferential treatment from the Daxu Dynasty for more than a hundred years, and may have a better soil for development.
So it evolved a bit.
"Okay, I will teach you this much for the time being. You will bite off more than you can chew."
Xuanzhen said goodbye that day: "Boy, you should practice hard. Remember not to use magic power to interfere with the world, so as not to be contaminated by cause and effect. Let it last for five years. I will come again after five years. If you still want to practice Taoism at that time, follow me.
Go to Yunhu Temple.”
In this world, after monks become monks, practitioners often have to cut off all love and love, and naturally cannot marry and have children.
Even if most people are able to practice, they are not willing to practice.
I would rather be an ordinary person.
"Master, on the way back."
Xu Sheng also said respectfully: "Be careful in everything."
"master?"
Xuanzhen was surprised, smiled, shook his head and said, "You and I have not yet performed the rituals of master and disciple, so we cannot be called masters and disciples. When you grow up, we will discuss if you still want to practice..."
"If you have the gift of teaching, you will naturally become a teacher."
Xu Sheng said again: "Once a teacher, always a father!"
Xuanzhen was stunned for a moment, smiled and touched Xu Sheng's head, then turned and left.
"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu"
Chunhua suddenly appeared next to Xu Sheng. She looked at Xuanzhen's leaving back and said regretfully: "The Taoist must have been a handsome man when he was young. But why, why does the Taoist have no son?"
"..." Xu Sheng was speechless.
After that, time continues to flow forward.
Another five years have passed in the blink of an eye.
Xu Sheng is eight years old!
Of course, Xuanzhen blocked Xu Sheng's spiritual root aura before leaving, so no other practitioners came to visit him again.
In the past five years, Xu Sheng has improved to a small level in his cultivation of Taoism.
The third small realm has been completed, and the cultivation of the fourth small realm has begun.
Ever since Xuan Zhen explained it five years ago, Yang Zhenwu and Xu Xinlan no longer frowned because Xu Sheng grew up slower than others.
But they have all aged a bit in the past five years.
Of course they gave birth to a younger brother for Xu Sheng.
The maid Chunhua still hated getting married. She met some men through a matchmaker, but none of them hit it off.
My younger sister Yang Caiying has grown up a lot.
Now he is much taller than Xu Gao.
Xu Sheng has actually grown a bit in size. He is almost the same as his youngest brother who is now three years old.
This day.
My sister Yang Caiying got into a fight with the son of a family at the end of the street where she had just moved!
After all, Yang Zhenwu ran a martial arts gym. Yang Caiying had been running around in the martial arts gym since she was a child, so she naturally started practicing martial arts.
And her talent is pretty good too.
This resulted in her not becoming a gentle and quiet lady, but a tomboy who liked to dance with swords and sticks all day long.
But the son of the newly moved family is actually not weak in martial arts.
Yang Caiying is actually no match.
"You brat, how dare you bully me!"
After falling to the ground, Yang Caiying got up from the ground crying. She shouted: "If you wait for my brother to come over, you will be dead! My brother is amazing!!"
"Your brother?"
The nine-year-old boy opposite was surprised: "Is he very powerful? Where is he? Let him come out!"
He also said very arrogantly: "Since I was a child, I have never lost to my peers in martial arts competitions!"
At this time, Xu Sheng slowly walked over.
"Brother!" Yang Caiying shouted and rushed to Xu Sheng's side: "He bullied me!"
"Brother?" The little boy opposite was dumbfounded: "He is your brother? Hahaha, are you sure he's not your brother? Your brother turns out to be a dwarf!"
Bang!
Of course his laughter soon stopped.
Because he has been kicked away by Xu Sheng.
A few minutes later.
"impossible!"
The boy had become bruised and swollen. He looked at the little Xu Sheng and said in disbelief: "How can you be so strong!"
Xu Sheng certainly had no trouble dealing with this little boy.
"Hmph! I said my brother is very powerful, right?"
Yang Caiying put her hands on her hips, raised her chin and said: "My brother is not a dwarf, he is a genius! A genius that you can't understand!"
Since Xuanzhen ordered that Xu Sheng's spiritual roots should not be leaked, the Yang family did not widely spread the reason for Xu Sheng's slow growth.
Even though many people have been laughing behind their backs because the Yang family's son seems not to grow up.
After saying that, Yang Caiying held Xu Sheng's hand, just like a sister holding her brother's hand: "Ignore you, brother, let's go home!"
After a while, the two returned home.
I heard crying before I even entered the house.
"I want to eat candied haws, I don't care, I just want to eat candied haws..." A boy about the same size as Xu Sheng sat down on the ground in the hall and was crying.
"Yang Yunteng, what are you doing?" But as Xu Sheng and Yang Caiying walked in, Yang Caiying frowned. She only said one sentence, and the little boy stopped crying and stood up from the ground with some fear.
To be continued...
