The weather was sunny, and over the mountainside manor, the setting sun reflected the flaming clouds coming continuously from the distance.
Li Ke said while clearing the tableware: "Sir, my father will bring others with him tonight to perform the apprenticeship ceremony for you."
Qingchen was lying on the recliner, using the mysterious world of "conquering people with virtue" to cultivate his spirit. He simply said "hmm" and did not respond.
Ever since he discovered that the secret of the tunnel had been leaked, he had not been at ease for a moment, for fear that some monster would emerge from inside and kill him instantly.
If Li Ke hadn't come to cook, he would probably still be sitting on the steps at the entrance of the corridor.
Seeing that Mr. Li Ke didn't care about this matter, he didn't say anything more.
At this time, a large group of people from Banshan Manor were walking towards Qiuye Villa.
The leader is surprisingly Li Ke's father who is in charge of the Privy Council.
Li Yunshou.
Some curious people followed and looked around, only to find that several confidential staff members from the Privy Council were following the team.
In the procession, servants carried red greeting cards and tea sets.
Those who were watching were stunned. These were the things that were part of the Li family's old rules for apprenticeship.
Seeing the team heading towards the Akiye Villa, could it be that the rising stars of the Li family are about to officially become apprentices?
This is incredible. If Li Shu and others became disciples, then the seniority of the instructor would be on an equal footing with the second generation of the Li family, and he would be qualified to participate in family meetings!
However, when Li Shu and others came back, they immediately went to the Privy Council Office to sign confidential documents.
Why are you making such a big deal about becoming a disciple now?
Some people are wondering in their hearts, what's going on?
Those parents who once allowed their children to sleep in later feel regretful at this moment.
Someone took advantage of the fact that the team had not arrived at Qiuye Villa and the matter had not yet been settled, so they hurriedly came to the front of the team and whispered to Li Yunshou: "Brother, I was confused and allowed the child to sleep in. How about you?
Punish me, but you must write your nephew in the greeting card."
Li Yunshou glanced at the other party: "I have given you two days. If you admit your mistake more seriously, you will not come to me to plead for mercy. You still don't understand that the protagonist of this matter is Qiuye
The gentleman in the other courtyard has nothing to do with me."
The person who begged for mercy said with a grimace: "Brother, do you know that you don't care about brotherhood so much?"
Li Yunshou stood still, and the team behind him stopped.
This important figure in Li's Privy Council stared at his half-brother in front of him: "I originally wanted to tell you tomorrow. The old man asked you to go to the front of Baopu Building to receive the whip. If I indulge in an affair today, I will tell you tomorrow.
I have to get the whip too."
It is a family law to lead a whip, but the old man has not used this rule for more than ten years, so everyone has gradually forgotten about it.
The person who begged for mercy turned pale. He is now also a powerful person in the Li family. Although he is not as famous as Li Yunshou and Li Changqing, he is still a person who wants face.
If you kneel in front of Baopu Tower tomorrow and receive the whip, how will you behave in the future?
However, he knew very well that he could not escape.
…
…
The next moment, the team had arrived in front of the Akiba Villa.
Li Yunshou knocked on the door gently: "Li Yunshou brought the Li family's children to deliver the greeting card."
"Please come in."
Qingchen's clear voice came from the Qiuye Villa.
Li Yunshou walked in first. This was the first time he saw Qingchen. For some reason, he just felt that there was an inexplicable aura about him.
Even though it was such a large apprenticeship formation of the Li family, the expression of the young man in front of him did not change at all.
Qingchen also took a look at the middle-aged man, and saw that he had sharp eyebrows and starry eyes, and gray hair on his temples. Those eyes seemed to be able to see through people in a flash of lightning.
The other party was very aggressive, and he must have experienced it in the Federal Army.
Li Shu and others also followed into the Qiuye Villa, but these military elites suddenly froze when they looked at the young man on the recliner.
They knew that they came back to become a master and learn orthodox cultivation methods, but they did not expect that the master they wanted to worship was so young!
This was the first meeting between master and apprentice. Prior to this, Li's disciples who had returned from the army had signed a confidentiality agreement. They did not come to Qiuye Villa to meet their master in private, nor did they inquire with anyone else. They just waited silently for what was about to happen.
The surprise that comes.
The result was unexpected, and I was surprised.
Li Shu is twenty-six years old this year, and the youngest among their elite troops is also twenty-four years old.
And what about Qingchen? From a casual glance, they knew that this master was probably not even twenty years old.
Moreover, why does this gentleman look so tired? Is he really a practitioner?
Li Shu noticed something was wrong with his expression, and saw the doubts and doubts in other people's eyes, but he quickly reminded him with his eyes that sooner or later he would become a disciple, and he was already here, so there was no need to question anything.
After receiving Li Shu's reminder, everyone calmed down their expressions.
At this time, as soon as Li Yunshou entered Qiuye Villa, he saw his son washing dishes and wiping the stove in the kitchen.
Many people had gathered in the yard, but Li Ke seemed not to notice, and washed another plate of winter peaches and brought it to the stone table.
The 14-year-old boy is still thinking about it. He washed six winter peaches yesterday and his husband ate them all, which means that he likes to eat them.
Do you want to send some more to your husband? We will supply it every day and don’t let it run out.
Also, should the trees that need to be replaced next to the Akiba Villa be replaced directly with peach trees of the winter peach variety? They will bloom beautifully in the spring...
But will it bring bad luck to my husband?
Li Ke didn't care what others would think when they saw this scene. He just did what he wanted to do and what he should do without any distracting thoughts.
But this scene is a little different for Li Shu and others. They know that the old man likes Li Ke. Last year, Li Ke even entered the ancestral hall on behalf of the family.
Such a proud man of the Li family was actually serving tea and water to others.
Li Shu and others calmed down a bit. They knew that there must be a reason for this.
At this time, Li Yunshou took a deep look at his son, and then looked back at the people in Wuyang Wuyang behind him: "Everyone spread out, those who should come in come in, and those who should go out get out, close the door."
As soon as these words came out, there were only twenty-two people left in Qiuye Villa who wanted to become disciples, and Li Changshou himself.
Li Yunshou looked at Qingchen: "Although I am older than you, after they became apprentices, we are our equals. I won't be polite to you, please sit down."
Qingchen glanced at the lounge chair next to him.
At this time, Li Ke actually came out of the kitchen with a rag and wiped the recliner carefully.
Then he stood aside and said, "Master, please sit down."
Li Yunshou looked at this scene and didn't know what he was thinking. After a moment, he said: "According to the rules of Li's apprenticeship, from now on, you will be invited to attend all family meetings. You can put forward your own suggestions. Privy Council
I will also seriously consider it. In addition, according to the old rules, all disciples must bow three times and bow to you nine times, serve you tea and pay homage to your master."
When it came to the three kowtows and nine bows, Li Ke's classmates didn't feel much at all, but Li Shu and others looked at each other silently again.
Nan Gengchen hid behind, thinking that he had been fooled by Brother Chen's super-advanced punch combination. If everyone knelt down, wouldn't he have to kneel down too...
But the most difficult thing to accept among the crowd is not these people, but Keiichi...
Qingyi didn't want to practice cultivation at all, because he knew that the Qing family had an ancestor with unparalleled intelligence who didn't even bother to become an awakened person.
In the end, as an ordinary person, he participated in the rise and fall of the second civilization era of mankind and made a huge contribution.
He admired the ancestor named 'Qing Zhen' very much, so he also wanted to imitate him.
But the problem is that after he came to Banshan Manor, he was first forced to learn fighting, and now he was forced to kowtow to become his master.
Of course, he didn't have to do it, but Qing felt worried about his future when he thought about Li Ke's upcoming improvement in martial arts.
However, at this time Qingchen said with a smile: "Don't kneel down yet. In fact, I know that some of you are not convinced. It doesn't matter. I can teach you first and then talk about becoming a disciple after you are convinced."
The people who were about to become apprentices of Mr. Li looked at each other in confusion, but it was Li Shu who spoke first and said, "Sir, we have no other intentions. The apprenticeship ceremony is what we should do."
With that said, Li Shu took the greeting card from the side and walked forward.
Li Yunshou explained on the side: "After accepting their invitations and their three kowtows and nine bows, you have to teach them their true skills, and they have to treat you like their own father. If one day they violate it, the Privy Council will
Punishments will be made, this is the foundation of order within the Li family, so you don’t have to worry."
Qingchen smiled: "Li Ke, take the apprenticeship stickers and burn them too. I am also entrusted by others to teach Taoism and solve doubts here. There is no need to bind you with any rules. Again, if there are
One day you feel that I am qualified to be your master, it is not too late to worship me again."
Qingchen knew very well that these young people came to him because they wanted something. However, he was too young and found it difficult to convince others.
Li Shu and others knew the rules and were very smart. Li also promised to meet on the battlefield in the future, so these students would stay away.
But Qingchen didn't think that a greeting card or the name of master and disciple could really protect anything.
The last person who said that he should "step back" on the battlefield was Duke Wen of Jin.
This Duke Wen of Jin retreated when faced with the Chu State, but soon he crippled the Chu State, ate the Chu State's food, killed the Chu State's people, and robbed the Chu State's land...
Therefore, there is no real retreat on the battlefield. If the positions are different, the outcome and life and death should be determined.
Qingchen didn't care about this. In his opinion, the old man gave him the method of practice, and he helped the old man teach some of Li's own orthodox practitioners. It was that simple.
This is a deal.
"Moreover," Qingchen added again: "Not everyone can be my apprentice."
At this moment, Li Shu and others looked at each other in confusion again. Now it was no longer a question of whether they wanted to worship, but the other party didn't want to accept it!
You must know that they are rising stars of the Li family. Looking at the entire federation, I am afraid no one would say such a thing.
The last person who said such words in Li's family, and who rejected countless rising stars from becoming apprentices, seemed to be their seventh uncle Li Shutong.
I don’t know what kind of confidence the young man in front of me has?
Li Yunshou looked at Qingchen carefully.
What does it mean that twelve elite members of the Li family's army, plus the best in the Li family's school, will become apprentices together? In another twenty years, Qingchen's reputation within the Li family will not only reach a very high level, but even
In the Federation, as long as you are not an enemy of the Li family, you can definitely go sideways.
Whenever he has anything to do, Li Shu and others will definitely help him, whether out of gratitude for the cultivation method or in the name of master and disciple.
However, the young man in front of him didn't seem to care about this.
A person must have enough confidence to refuse a big enough temptation. So where does this young man's confidence come from?
Or maybe it's because you're too young, so you're arrogant and don't understand the stakes?
But Li Yunshou was not an ordinary person. He chose to believe that this young man had enough confidence.
Although he doesn't know what this confidence is.
The old man never explained it clearly.
Li Yunshou thought for a moment and said: "How about this? We still claim to the outside world that we have gone through the apprenticeship ceremony, so that it will be more convenient for you within the Li family. As for whether these young people will sincerely become apprentices in the future, it depends on their own choice?"
"Okay," Qingchen smiled.
What made him more satisfied tonight was that although Li Shu and others were surprised by his age, they still chose to hand over the apprenticeship certificate respectfully. Although Li Yunshou was puzzled by his choice, he did not treat him as a fool.
There are no fools in the Akiba Villa at this moment, so it should be very easy to teach.
In this matter, the happiest thing is that Qingyi doesn't have to kowtow anymore...
Qingchen looked at Li Yunshou: "If you have nothing to do, please go back. The others will stay and start practicing."
"Start today?" Li Yunshou was really surprised this time.
"Yes, let's start today," Qingchen smiled: "Time is precious."
Li Yunshou thought for a moment and said goodbye: "Okay, I will take the people back now. Apart from the people in front of me, no one will disturb Mr. Qing's purity from now on."
"By the way," Qingchen said, "I hope that the matter of recruiting disciples will not be spread out of Banshan Manor for the time being."
"Okay," Li Yunshou nodded: "I can guarantee this. In fact, the Banshan Manor will be under martial law after tonight."
At this time, the external defense of the Banshan Manor was changed again. Li Yunshou's direct troops, the 081 Garrison Brigade of the First Federal Army, had completely taken over the defense of the entire Banshan Manor.
From this moment on, except for a few people who were able to enter and exit the manor, the others were almost under house arrest within the manor.
Moreover, the 081 Garrison Brigade also drove in more than a dozen 'strategic information vehicles'. From this moment on, all messages and phone calls sent out from Banshan Manor are under full-time monitoring.
This time, the level of martial law is higher than before.
All the dignitaries in the entire Upper Third District smelled something unusual.
…
…
After Li Yunshou left, Qingchen looked at Li Shu and others and said, "Let's all sit cross-legged on the ground and start teaching you how to practice."
Li Shu and others were stunned, this was too direct.
Sir, you should not say something first, such as five major points, three minor points, etc.
"Sir, why don't you say something, otherwise we will feel something is wrong," Li Shu said.
Qingchen thought for a while: "Don't say that you are my student before I approve it."
Li Shu and others almost vomited blood. When they came to apprentice, they found that their husband was too young, but they didn't say anything. As a result, Qingchen now dislikes them.
But they don't know why, the more Qingchen behaves like this, the more curious they are about what Qingchen wants to teach and how capable he is.
The age that everyone questioned earlier seems to be no longer an issue.
On the contrary, the younger Qingchen is, the more they think Qingchen might be a monster.
Qingchen didn't say any more nonsense and directly used breathing techniques to bring everyone into a state of concentration one by one.
Easy and hassle-free.
Someone had just entered samadhi when he woke up again: "Sir, I feel the presence of Qi!"
Qingchen didn't blame him, he just brought the opponent into a calm state again, and then said: "Don't make a fuss, seriously use your energy to attack the Shenting point."
Li Shu watched his companions fall into samadhi one by one, and wondered, "Is cultivation that simple?"
They have heard about the orthodox practice method. It is said that they have to practice hard for several years on useless things before they can start real practice, and then wait for another half a year before they can feel the existence of Qi.
However, my husband’s method of cultivation seems to have skipped many steps and led directly to the great road.
Li Shu watched Qingchen bend down to take the pulse, and one student immediately fell into trance. Then Qingchen stood up and took the pulse for the next student, and the next student was immediately brought into trance.
The sacred orthodox practice method was forcibly turned into an assembly line operation by my husband, just like the manager of a breeding farm checking whether the piglets are sick.
It's too informal...
"Sir," Li Shu suppressed the surprise in his heart and asked, "Can you practice breathing directly?"
Qingchen thought for a while and asked, "What else?"
"However, many cultivation organizations require disciples to polish their bodies first..."
"That's deceiving people," Qingchen explained patiently: "They just want to use physical training as a means to increase your awe and sense of identification with the organization. In fact, there is no need to do those messy things."
If he wanted to follow the teachings of other cultivation organizations, Qingchen would have to spend several years with Li's to see results. How could he have so much time?
His time is precious!
Soon, Li Shu was also brought into a state of trance, feeling the 'qi' and inner surprise.
Qingyi saw Qingchen coming to him, and suddenly asked in surprise: "Are you willing to teach me this orthodox cultivation method?"
"You are also my student, why don't you teach me?" Qingchen said, and put his slender fingers on Qingyi's pulse.
Qingyi felt his breathing rate suddenly change and closed his eyes involuntarily.
But he couldn't figure it out. Could it be that Li Ke's beating of himself was really not ordered by the teacher?
Otherwise, how could the other party be so kind as to teach me the orthodox practice method?
This is the orthodox way of practice!
While thinking wildly, Qingyi actually fell out of his trance.
But Qingchen gently led him into a state of trance again, and patiently warned him: "Don't think wildly."
For a moment, Qingyi's mood became complicated.
…
A 5,000-word chapter, 10,000 words have been updated today, and I still owe Boss Huanyu one update, and I still owe him two updates.
Thanks to 900 Million Girls Dream, jkzz, and Feixiangjia Bajie for becoming the new allies of this book. The bosses are generous. I wish the bosses will not meet pig teammates when playing games.
