12. Chapter 12 The Long Road to Repaying Gratitude 1
The fourteenth year of Tiande.
Jia Yue hides the dragon, the twelfth lunar month brings the new year, the first yang of the first month, the cyanotic fragrance of the second month, the time of the warbler in the third month, and the preface of the Sophora japonica in the fourth month.
Counting on my fingers, I have been coming to Taixi Mountain for nearly half a year.
Years ago, my father and elder brother wanted to send me to Taixi Mountain. When I thought about entering this mountain gate and not even being able to spend the New Year at home, I felt all kinds of unwillingness and reluctance in my heart.
However, my father and elder brother made Taixi Mountain so popular that they threatened me that if I didn't obey, I would sleep in the dirty dirt of the back mountain forever. I could only see them during the Qingming Festival every year.
I was anxious for a moment, thinking that it would be acceptable to see my father and eldest brother once a year, but sleeping in the dirt would be too cruel for a lady like me who loves to be clean and well-dressed. Plus, I was a little sick.
At that time, the mourning platform was not clear enough, and my thoughts were slower, so I agreed to my father and elder brother's ruthless request.
As soon as I heard that Taixi Mountain, I knew it was a quiet and noble place. The master of Taixi Mountain, my master, who was known as Wuliang layman, was also a person who had risen from the worldly world.
Before the age of thirty, the master traveled all over the world and became famous. After the age of thirty, he returned to seclusion and took on apprentices, and the disciples of aristocratic families flocked to him like ducks.
Perhaps the master saw that there were too many little ducks who wanted to be his disciples, so he ordered people to spread the three unwritten rules for accepting disciples in Taixi Mountain: the first is to be handsome, the second is to be clear in the spiritual platform, and the third is to look at it, simple
To put it simply, you must be good-looking, not stupid, and be able to attract attention.
This, two and two are easy to grasp, but the third one depends entirely on the old man's mood. Therefore, to this day, Master has only 12 disciples, and I am the one with you.
This pitiful "Little Twelve" has been in school for less than half a year.
To this day, I still don’t quite understand why Master took me into his disciples that day.
This is not to say that I am terribly ugly or stupid. Before I got sick, I was also a very smart and beautiful girl. It’s just that in those days when I first came to Taixi Mountain, I was really not that beautiful.
Handsome and beautiful, the spiritual platform is clear and bright.
I privately speculated that Master was able to accept me as I was at that time, which shows that he is really an expert who can see through phenomena to see the essence, and I have incomparable respect for Master in my heart.
However, the tenth senior brother who was responsible for monitoring my medication these days said that it was my father who gave Master three thousand-year-old snow-capped ginseng trees, and my eldest brother knelt in front of Master for three hours before Master reluctantly accepted me.
Therefore, I felt deeply sorry for the three old snow-capped ginseng trees. In my eyes, the supreme and noble Taixi Mountain was also covered with a golden coat.
However, this master actually saved half of my life. Therefore, my respect for the master is growing day by day.
My father and eldest brother said that these eleven senior brothers of mine are all outstanding figures among men.
Because I started my career a little late, I have never seen the senior brothers from these five to five who have already learned and let go of the mountain.
But I have been in the mountain for nearly half a year, and I have never seen any of the 6th to 10th senior brothers showing any signs of romance. It can be seen that in order to deceive me into entering the mountain, my father and eldest brother even told such lies. They really used all kinds of tricks.
!
I was very sick in the first two months when I came here. When Master and senior brothers six to eleven came to see me, I only remembered that the eleventh senior brother was wearing a white robe, and I didn't remember much else.
However, after the New Year, I was able to get up from the bed and really saw my master and the sixth to tenth senior fellow apprentices, but I did not see my eleventh senior fellow apprentice. This was really strange to me——
Could it be that my illness was so serious that I thought Bai Wuchang, who wanted to take me to the underworld, was my eleventh senior brother?
It is not a happy thing to have doubts in your heart. The tenth senior brother watched me drink a large bowl of bitter medicine with a very satisfied expression, so I asked about it.
The tenth senior brother said calmly: "Oh, you said Xiaobai, he went home to celebrate the New Year!"
I was shocked after hearing this - who said that if you enter Taixi Mountain, you are not allowed to go home to celebrate the New Year? Dad and eldest brother are so ruthless!
