Chapter 11: Kidnapping a Sect Master
Chapter 11: Kidnapping a Sect Master
Lu Wan made a bet with Su Yichen. She felt that she didn't have such great charm to make old man Ouyang give up his good position as the leader of the clan and come to the academy to follow her. What's more, she didn't have any spiritual energy, let alone any talent in refining equipment. Just relying on her sturdy body! This is not a joke!
In the past few days, Su Yichen and Lu Wan have been waiting in the inn. There is no need to go out to look for the spirit boat. They just need to wait for the spirit boat to come to them... Lu Wan couldn't help but ask: "Are we going to wait like this forever? When can we go to the academy? I remember you were quite anxious on the way here."
Su Yichen took a sip of tea slowly, then replied: "Don't worry, it will be soon. Pack your luggage first, and you can set off before dark today."
Lu Wan curled her lips and said, "How do we get there? Do we have to walk to the academy on foot? Or take a carriage? Do you still expect your non-existent spiritual boat to appear? Yu Chilin has been coming here every day these days, but since I told him yesterday that I was going to the academy, he has not come today. And even old man Ouyang is nowhere to be seen. I think you... Oh, forget it."
Su Yichen smiled slightly and said, "It's true that we are in a hurry, but two days should be enough."
Lu Wan touched Su Yichen's forehead in confusion, then touched his own forehead, and muttered to himself: "It's not hot, I don't have a fever, why are you talking nonsense? Is he angry with me?"
At noon, Lu Wan bought a lot of things on the street, including many novel and interesting things. She planned to let An Jiu bring these things to Xiao Jing An. I don’t know how An Er is doing now. His parents are so unreliable that they leave their child alone at home. Lu Wan shook her head helplessly and said self-deprecatingly: "I am also one of those unreliable people."
In the evening, they finally returned to the inn. At this time, all the items had been packed, and the four travelers were preparing to go downstairs to enjoy dinner before embarking on their journey. Just as they sat down, suddenly, a dark shadow rushed into the door like a whirlwind. The man was all black, wearing tattered clothes, and his face was blurred. All that could be seen was that he grinned with a row of white teeth, grinning foolishly, just like a beggar. The man rushed straight to the table, and Lu Wan couldn't help but be startled. Fortunately, An Jiu stepped forward to block him.
An Jiu shouted angrily: "Who are you? How dare you disturb our master so rudely!"
However, the man said nothing and reached out to grab Lu Wan's hand. Lu Wan quickly dodged and wondered in his heart: Who is this? Is he a fool? He stared at the stranger in front of him with doubt, his whole body seemed to have been bombarded by a shell.
The man who was hit by the cannon said, "Hey! Don't be rude to me, little boy!"
Lu Wan felt that the voice sounded familiar, but he couldn't remember where he had heard it.
I turned around and looked at Su Yichen, who was still calmly drinking tea. He didn't look like an acquaintance. What's more, I just woke up a short time ago, so I don't know anyone here. If there is anyone new, it's just...
Before Lu Wan could finish his thoughts, another person came in from outside. Like the previous one, he seemed to be wearing tattered rags, but his face could still be seen clearly. Isn't this the Yuchi Lin who came to report every day in the past few days?
Yuchi Lin was chasing after him in a panic, panting and saying, "Master, wait for me!"
Lu Wan was still confused. This kid hadn't come for a few days. Did he become someone else's disciple? He looked at the person in front of him whose appearance he couldn't see clearly again... He didn't seem to be that good!
The man in front of him whose face he couldn't see clearly shouted angrily: "What are you yelling about? Your senior sister hasn't even entered the sect yet, don't call her by that name!" However, in the blink of an eye, this man smiled happily, showing a mouthful of white teeth, and said to Lu Wan: "My good disciple, I am your master! It's just been a few days since we last met, have you forgotten me? Never mind. Let's go! Come with me to see the gift I prepared for you!" As he spoke, he was about to take Lu Wan's hand again, but was intercepted by someone else again.
The man then turned his head and looked at the man who looked like a banished immortal. He squinted his eyes and looked at him carefully, and asked: "Who are you, kid? Why are you holding on to my disciple so tightly and won't let go!" He thought to himself that with his eyesight, he couldn't even see through the boy's cultivation level!
At this time, the man who looked like a banished immortal responded softly: "I am Su Yichen, the prince of the current Five Star Dynasty of Xinghuai Continent, and also the husband of the girl standing in front of you! I am here to meet Mr. Ouyang."
Lu Wan was first surprised by Su Yichen's self-explosion, and then surprised that this dark-skinned man who looked like he had been blown up by a cannon was old man Ouyang? How did he become like this after not seeing him for a few days? His hair seemed to be a little burnt. Don't tell me this was caused by refining the weapon. Lu Wan touched his face and shuddered.
Old man Ouyang: "Huh." My disciple hasn't received it yet, but you got there first!
Old man Ouyang pulled Lu Wan over with a sly look on his face and whispered, "My disciple, I tell you, all men are bad, let alone a man who looks so good. He is definitely not a good person. What's the point of getting married to him? My dear disciple, you are still young, so get rid of him quickly. Master will teach you how to refine weapons. When you become a ground-level refiner like me, you can have any man you want. You can support eight or ten of them."
Lu Wan was so embarrassed that her face was covered with black lines. She couldn't help but sigh in her heart: ideals are indeed beautiful, but reality is always so cruel! She looked at Su Yichen's dangerous eyes, shook her head helplessly, and said regretfully: "Thank you very much for Mr. Ouyang's kindness, but my husband and I... We grew up together and have a deep affection for each other. We can be said to be childhood sweethearts. Just like fish cannot live without water, I can't live without him. Moreover, we already have a son, who is now three and a half years old." This last sentence is the most crucial!
Lu Wan secretly glanced at Su Yichen's eyes with a spring-like smile, and a trace of nervousness rose in her heart, and then she sighed cautiously.
Old man Ouyang glared at Su Yichen fiercely. Lu Wan keenly noticed the strong smell of gunpowder in the air, so he hurriedly asked: "Mr. Ouyang, what are you doing..." It would be better to divert everyone's attention quickly. After all, this situation was not something he could handle.
Old man Ouyang then looked down at himself, and quickly performed a cleaning spell, not forgetting to clean Yuchilin who was standing stupidly beside him. Old man Ouyang was annoyed, he was really too anxious. Ever since he heard Yuchilin say the day before yesterday that my beloved disciple was going to Laoshizi Academy, he quickly left all the affairs of the sect and found an acting sect master to give himself a vacation so that he could go out with his disciple. He thought that he was always a ground-level refiner, and he was unique. He couldn't let his disciple lose face when he went out. He rushed to repair his spirit boat for two days, and then came to find his disciple in a dusty state, fearing that he would not be able to find him once his disciple left. He didn't pay attention to his image in this hurry. How could he establish a tall image in his disciple's heart? Old man Ouyang frowned and thought hard, and in a blink of an eye, he immediately became open-minded. Why care about that thing? Isn't it enough to be strong!
Old man Ouyang continued to happily pull Lu Wan outside. It was evening now and the streets were already lit. Lu Wan was pulled out of the inn by old man Ouyang. He felt that the streets were very quiet today and he had an indescribable feeling.
Old man Ouyang looked flattering and said: "My dear disciple, take a look at the gift that your master prepared for you." He pointed to the sky and said.
Lu Wan looked up and saw a small black dot in the sky that gradually grew larger, and then gradually became smaller when it approached. It looked like a small boat, but this boat could change size and fly in the sky. It looked like there were many rooms, like an inn on the boat. This seemed to be the spiritual boat that Su Yichen mentioned.
Old man Ouyang changed the spirit boat to its smallest size and placed it in Lu Wan's hand. "Disciple, how is it? Do you like it? This is a meeting gift from your master!"
Lu Wan nodded awkwardly: "Mr. Ouyang, thank you for your kindness. The design of the spirit boat is ingenious, but I should not accept the reward without merit. I am a person of limited talent and knowledge. Thank you for your kindness many times, but I have no ability to refine equipment, and my spiritual energy is scattered. Today I am going to report to Lingmeng Academy to practice again. As for the matter of becoming a disciple...please forgive me..."
Without waiting for Lu Wan to finish, old man Ouyang frowned and shouted: "What's wrong with going to the academy? It won't delay your becoming my disciple. We've agreed today that you have accepted my spirit boat, and you will be my eldest disciple. Although I'm extremely reluctant for you to go to that damn academy, your situation does require a place with abundant spiritual energy to practice again. How about this, I'll go to the academy with you. This way it won't delay your practice, and it won't delay my teaching you how to refine equipment." After he finished speaking, he nodded. This was a very good idea.
Lu Wan looked up and blinked again and again. He was so surprised that he looked at Su Yichen again. He was right! But Lu Wan knew that becoming a disciple was no joke, not to mention kidnapping the leader of a sect.
Lu Wan asked, "Mr. Ouyang, I heard that you are the leader of a sect. If you follow me to the academy, what will happen to your sect? If you find out after teaching me that I am not the disciple you imagined...what will you do?"
Old man Ouyang waved his hands: "I have always been free and unrestrained. It was that old boy Yuchi who insisted on imitating Minglang and established a sect. This really made him look prominent. The sect is fine. It won't matter if I'm missing," he said nonchalantly, and then said excitedly: "Oh, you are the best seedling I have met in these hundred years! Even if you are a fool, your teacher can teach you to be a genius!" He praised her. Look at her spirit and energy, and her luck that can rival the sunset glow. It would be simply against the will of heaven not to accept her as a disciple!
After hearing this, Lu Wan had to accept it. Everything was ready. He then looked at Su Yichen's opinion. Seeing him nod to him, Lu Wan knelt down and kowtowed gracefully, saying in a sonorous and powerful voice: "Master, please accept your disciple's greetings!" Without any hesitation, Dongxue handed Lu Wan a cup of tea, and Lu Wan respectfully handed it to old man Ouyang.
Old man Ouyang looked at this scene in shock, tremblingly picked up the tea in his hand, drank it all, and then smiled and said: "Hey, good disciple, the ground is cold, get up quickly."
Su Yichen and others were also shocked.
Su Yichen's inner thoughts: ...Where did my little wife learn this? ?
An Jiu's inner thoughts: ...What is the princess doing? In this day and age, you have to kneel down to become a disciple?
Dongxue’s inner thoughts:… I don’t know. I will do whatever the princess tells me to do and respect everything she does. I don’t quite understand it, but I support her very much!
Yuchi Lin was still confused. How did the senior brother become a senior sister? And I saw the senior brother who became a senior sister... Is this a new apprenticeship ceremony? Then I can't fall behind.
Then, after Lu Wan knelt down, the silly boy Yuchi Lin also knelt down, kowtowed and shouted loudly: "Master, please accept... Ouch, Master, why are you hitting me?"
Old man Ouyang stared at the stupid Yuchi Lin, then looked at Lu Wan who was totally unaware, and patted Yuchi Lin on the head. Yuchi Lin felt dizzy, and then heard a deafening voice in his ears: "Become your disciple properly! Why are you learning from your senior sister? You are such a loser." Old man Ouyang shouted angrily.
Yuchi Lin curled his lips and muttered softly, "Master is partial to me and treats me differently." After receiving a caring kick from his master, he began to stand up straight and said, "God is above... I, Yuchi Lin, take Ouyang as my master today. Once a teacher, always a father. I do not ask to be born on the same day of the same month and year, but I ask..." With a click, a huge thunder fell from the sky and hit Yuchi Lin accurately. Fortunately, the damage was not too great, but it was extremely insulting.
Yuchi Lin's hair was burnt, black smoke came out of his mouth, and he looked at old man Ouyang aggrievedly: "Master, what's going on?"
Old man Ouyang was so angry that he picked up his shoes and chased after Yuchilin. All he could hear was Yuchilin's shouting and old man Ouyang's powerful voice: "You still want to become my disciple, but you don't even know my master's name? My last name is Ouyang, not Ouyang. Who else should I be struck by? You don't even ask to be born on the same day of the same month of the same year. What? You hope I'll die before I even become my disciple? You're really filial to me!!!"
Lu Wan swallowed his saliva, and then he realized that he seemed to have made a joke just now. He turned to look at Su Yichen and asked: "What are they doing?"
Su Yichen answered: "The spiritual oath is also called the Heavenly Dao oath. It uses spiritual energy as the medium and Heavenly Dao as the witness. The oath-taker initiates the oath. If it is violated, Heavenly Dao will punish it. If the oath is completed, an invisible oath medium will be formed between you. No one can sow discord between you two, master and disciple."
Lu Wan suddenly realized, so that's how it was. He almost forgot that this was the world of immortal cultivation, and the ceremony of paying respect to a disciple was different from those of mortals. This was really embarrassing...
Lu Wan looked at Yu Chilin, who had a shoe mark on his face, and smiled. He then looked at old man Ouyang and said unnaturally, "Master, if you hadn't said today that Ouyang was just your surname, I would have thought it was your name. After all, whenever someone mentions an Earth-level weapon refiner, everyone will praise you as Mr. Ouyang, and no one will call you by your name. You really wronged us."
Old man Ouyang was still a little angry. What kind of disciples are these? It’s nothing. I want to accept them! It’s my own fault!!! He calmed down and said to Lu Wan in a gentle and gentle manner: "My dear disciple, don’t compare yourself with that stupid boy. I don’t blame you. My real name is Ouyang Zhen."
Lu Wan nodded.
Then the two of them began to formally swear to become disciples one by one.
Lu Wan: "God bless you, I... Lu Wan swear here today that I will take Ouyang Zhen as my master, and from now on I will respect my master and be friendly to my fellow apprentices..."
Yuchi Lin: "God bless you, I... Yuchi Lin swear here today that I will take Ouyang Zhen as my master, respect my master and my elder sister, and serve our country when I have completed my studies!"
I saw scattered golden lights floating down from the dark sky, floating on the two of them, and gradually disappearing, invisibly adding a certain connection.
