Li Tianmu opened the curtain of the sedan, and it turned out that there was an old man and a young man in the carriage. The old man was a great figure in the world. He was Chen Zhenshi, the second disciple of Wu Sheng Ye Jinquan, the leader of the Wudang Sect. Because he lived in seclusion in Baiyun, Guangzhou Prefecture,
In the mountains, people in the rivers and lakes call him Baiyun layman.
Chen Zhenshi had three disciples in his life. His first and second disciples were Dong Fuyu and Xia Zhixi from Beizhen Fusi. His third disciple was Wudang Fairy Dong Qing. In addition, Dong Fuyu and Dong Qing were brothers and sisters.
, Dong Fuyu is the brother of Dong Qing, whom Li Tianmu is afraid of all day long.
The boy's name is Chen Maohong, who is Chen Zhenshi's nephew and Li Tianmu's only disciple. Chen Maohong could have accepted Chen Zhenshi as his teacher, but Chen Zhenshi considered his own nephew and refused to punish him.
Once he is weak, the apprentice will not be able to make progress. For Chen Maohong's sake, after teaching him for several years, he had to find another famous teacher.
There are so many masters of the Wudang Sect that it is not difficult for Chen Zhenshi to find a famous teacher for his nephew. His master, the martial arts saint Ye Jinquan, is the master of martial arts in the Wudang Sect, and he is at the pinnacle of swordsmanship, palm skills and light kung fu.
His senior brother Wu Kunshan, the red-haired dragon god, inherited his master's sword skills, his fourth junior brother Ghost Hand Zhou Yunquan inherited his master's palm skills, and his fifth junior brother Shan Sinan inherited his skills.
Master Qinggong. Chen Maohong can learn and achieve success if he takes any of them as his teacher.
But Chen Maohong is his own nephew after all, and Chen Zhenshi is very selfish. He feels that the three of them are all outstanding in one category, and he is not satisfied with it. He wants to find someone for Chen Maohong who can master the martial arts of his sect like his master.
His third junior brother, Jade Faced God Sun Jichao, was the son-in-law of Ye Jinquan. Ye Jinquan had no sons but only one daughter, Ye Hong. Therefore, Ye Jinquan gave Sun Jichuan a lot of food.
A masterful episode.
In terms of martial arts, Sun Jicha is the best choice for Master Chen Maohong, but there is a grudge between Chen Zhenshi and Sun Jicha. At that time, he and his senior brother, the red-haired dragon god Wu Kunshan, and his third junior brother, the jade-faced god Sun Jicha
Cha, the three of them pursue junior sister Ye Hong together.
Sun Jicha was known as the Jade-Faced Man, a rare handsome man who quickly conquered Ye Hong's heart. Chen Zhenshi and Wu Kunshan were so infatuated that they both refused to marry for Ye Hong.
When Chen Zhenshi was asked to court his former love rival, he naturally refused. In addition to Sun Jicha, there is another master of the Wudang sect, and that is the Divine Sword Flying Immortal Li Tianmu. Although Chen Maohong and Li Tianmu are only seven years apart,
They are of the same generation, but Chen Zhenshi is not strict with trivial matters and would rather let his nephew be a younger generation and worship under Li Tianmu's sect.
At this time, Chen Maohong was lying in the carriage and sleeping soundly. He had walked all the way from Guangzhou. Although he had a car to travel, the bumpy journey also made him exhausted.
Chen Zhenshi was meditating in the carriage just now. He knew something was going on outside. He opened the sedan curtain and saw that he didn't need to take action, so he didn't show up. Hearing that Li Tianmu and Dong Qing were back, he asked, "Wu Tian is dead."
Yet?"
Li Tianmu said: "Dead, the body is not far ahead."
Chen Zhenshi said: "Wu Tian is known as Huadao Taisui. He has been in the world for many years. The fact that he is alive today shows that he has some skills. Although he is not a first-rate master, there are always second-rate ones. I didn't expect that he would kill you with one move.
Tianmu, your palm skills have improved again."
Li Tianmu said: "Second Master Uncle deserves the award, my nephew's palm skills are far worse than Fourth Master Uncle."
Chen Zhenshi said: "It's a good thing that a young man can win without being arrogant. As the saying goes, there are people outside the world, and there is heaven outside the world. If you can stay humble and cautious, my son, you will have great potential in the future."
This made Li Tianmu feel embarrassed. He smiled and said, "Uncle Second Master, you must be hungry. Let's hit the road and find a place to shoot."
Chen Zhenshi nodded slightly. Li Tianmu turned around, closed the sedan curtain, whipped the horse and continued on his way.
The more Chen Zhenshi looked at Li Tianmu, the more he liked him. He thought to himself: "Look, my senior brother has accepted these two apprentices. They are both good. Fuyu and Zhixi are much inferior to them. Is it the apprentice who is not good or the teacher?"
There is a problem. They say that there are no apprentices who cannot teach well, only teachers who cannot teach. It seems that I am not as good as the senior brother.
"But that's not necessarily the case. Li Tianmu's hard work is recognized by the Wudang sect. He didn't start until he was almost twelve years old, and he has missed the best age for practicing martial arts. But he practices day and night, and the kung fu is severely cold and hot during the second and fifth shifts.
It never stops, even my teacher said that there is no one in the Wudang Sect who has worked as hard as Li Tianmu for decades.
"This kid is not smart. He was so stupid when he first started learning martial arts. He couldn't master a single sword move for a month. He hated me so much that my elder brother scolded me. I laughed when I saw it. But hard work can make up for stupidity, and this kid has it.
With his tenacity and perseverance, Guzi finally got the hang of it after two or three years, and he started learning martial arts faster than anyone else.
"Not only did he learn from my senior brother, he also asked me for swordsmanship, palm skills and light kung fu from the fourth and fifth brothers, but he just ignored the third brother. He probably knew that the senior brother didn't like the third brother, so he started from
If he doesn't get involved with the third child, what does the grudges of the previous generation have to do with him? This kid is quite interesting."
Li Tianmu was still worried about Yu Zhong, fearing that he would encounter bad guys again, so he slowed down the car and followed Yu Zhong's donkey at a distance until he entered Kaifeng Fucheng before he felt at ease.
Seeing that it was getting late, Li Tianmu planned to stay here for the night, so he found a small inn to stay. After packing, he went out to eat with everyone.
There was a restaurant next to the small inn. It was not big, but it was quite clean. People filed in and took a seat at a table. The waiter wiped the table and asked, "What do you guys want to eat?"
These four people are not rich, and they mainly rely on the Wudang Sect's annual salary. Although they have a few money, it is limited. Coming from Guangzhou, they have spent a lot of money along the way, and they have to leave some Sichuan money for travel expenses back.
Go, so I have to be careful about spending money.
The annual salary of the Wudang Sect refers to the salary paid to its disciples by the sect. The disciples who have entered the sect are more and the ordinary disciples are less. A leader like Chen Zhenshi can get sixty taels of silver every year for his disciples. If it is converted into one tael of silver,
In terms of money, that's sixty guan, which is sixty thousand cash. When silver is expensive and money is cheap, or when silver is cheap and money is expensive, it's a different matter.
At that time, an annual income of 60,000 yuan was not too little, but it was not too much either. It would belong to the middle class. Chen Zhenshi lived in seclusion in the Baiyun Mountains and spent very little. Sixty thousand yuan a year was more than enough. He also knew medical skills.
You can collect some herbal medicines and sell them, or you can treat people and collect some medical fees, and you can make dozens of taels of income in a year.
Originally, he should have a lot of money, but his second brother, Chen Maohong's father, Chen Zhongshi, is not particular about it. He comes to borrow money every now and then. Today he likes this piece of land and is short of money. Tomorrow he likes that piece of land and has little money.
Short of money, most of Chen Zhenshi's money was borrowed from Chen Zhongshi to buy land.
The money was like Liu Bei borrowing money from Jingzhou and never looking back. After a few years, Chen Zhenshi was empty-handed, but Chen Zhongshi became a well-known local landowner with nearly a thousand acres of fertile land. Chen Zhenshi didn't care about this. He had no children or daughters.
As long as he has enough money to eat, he thinks it's useless to have too much money.
Li Tianmu is a second-generation disciple of the leader of the Wudang Sect. His annual salary is less, only thirty-six taels of silver a year. Apart from drinking some wine, he has no other bad habits, neither whoring nor gambling, and does not spend much money.
However, he travels all over the country all year round to help those in need and help those in need, so he inevitably has to stay in a hotel, so his annual salary of thirty-six taels seems to be insufficient.
He didn't love money. If he wanted to get rich, there were plenty of ways to do it. Many escort agencies paid huge sums of money to hire him, but he didn't go. He thought that when his father died unjustly, he had already sworn an oath to be a chivalrous and righteous person in this life.
Despite all the injustice in the world.
Dong Qing was also a second-generation disciple, with thirty-six taels a year, but his brother Dong Fuyu was a money-crazed man. As soon as Dong Qing's annual salary was paid out, Dong Fuyu took most of it, saying that he was keeping it for her.
Keep it as a dowry in the future. Fortunately, Dong Qing has been with her master all year round, which is equivalent to taking care of food and housing. Otherwise, the little money she has left will be a problem for her.
Chen Maohong is a third-generation disciple of the head of the Wudang Sect. His annual salary is even less, only eighteen taels a year, which makes him unable to make ends meet. Although he has a landlord father, he is an iron rooster.
He is also very stingy towards his only biological flesh and blood.
Not only the Wudang sect has a pension, but also most other sects. Those with more properties will have a larger annual salary. This money is not given in vain, raising soldiers for a thousand days is spent in one moment. When the gang is in trouble, the disciples must throw their heads.
Passionate and fight to the death for the honor of the gang.
