Chapter 30: Apprenticeship Ceremony
As the saying goes, auspicious snow heralds a good year.
After a heavy snowstorm last night, the entire sect became white.
After snow comes sunshine.
The sky is as clear as water, and occasionally a few birds are jumping on the branches. The Taoist boy is sweeping the snow in front of the door. Under the sunshine, it sweeps away some of the snow.
A wisp of smoke rose.
"It's out of the pot!"
"It smells so good!" Crowds of people said, "Yes, yes, why does it smell so good!?"
The apprenticeship ceremony is today, and naturally there will be a banquet for guests. Jiang Qing has been preparing for it for a long time and got up early this morning.
He was serving a dish of soy sauce elbow.
Since the senior brother has entrusted the matter to him, he will naturally try his best to do his best.
"Have you learned it?"
"I have prepared all the ingredients. All I have to do is add them in order. As for the heat, it doesn't matter to the brothers in the alchemy room, right?"
"Leave it to us, little junior brother!"
The disciples who retired to the Ninth Peak to cultivate in seclusion also returned one after another a day ago.
The deserted mountain peaks are becoming more and more lively.
"Little junior brother!"
Jiang Qing stood on tiptoe and looked out of the kitchen. The senior brother was waving to him.
"Elder brother called me."
Everyone also looked back and saw that they had not seen each other for a long time. They clasped their fists and bowed:
"Big brother."
"Junior brothers, there is no need to be polite." Li Changsheng smiled and asked them to get up quickly. After a few pleasantries, he pulled Jiang Qing towards the front hall.
The two walked side by side.
"Junior brother, you did a good job!"
Li Changsheng praised without hesitation: "The layout of the venue, the allocation of personnel, and even the details of the main hall make you decorate it with a full atmosphere!"
"Well, well, it is indeed a happy day!"
Jiang Qing was a little embarrassed by the praise. In fact, he didn't do anything. He just counted the time and found that it was approaching the New Year. After asking, he found that there was also a New Year custom in this world.
But a monk.
With a pure heart and few desires, they all pursue immortality.
Since no one was doing it, he would do it. Taking advantage of the apprenticeship ceremony, he dressed up and down the Ninth Peak according to the old-fashioned appearance in his memory.
From top to bottom, there are red lanterns hanging, and couplets are posted in front of each cave.
The word "Fu" and the fiery red Chinese knot.
Everything was so festive, and as the senior brothers and sisters gradually returned, and everyone took care of things together, a certain "flavor" came in unconsciously.
The atmosphere is always contagious.
"Hoo ho ho!"
Qin Xiaosui pulled a cow and horse and ran around on the martial arts field in front of the palace. Yes, he has become an immortal, so why fly a kite? As long as the speed is fast enough, even cows and horses can reach the sky!
Li Changsheng looked at it and shook his head. Although he shook his head, the corners of his mouth were happy.
He didn't know why, but someone seemed to be mischievous at this time, which was quite interesting.
The two walked to the front hall.
"coming."
Jiang Qing noticed the direction of his senior brother's gaze and saw a stream of light coming in an instant.
"Master of Qiqi Peak."
He still doesn't know what the senior brother and the Seventh Peak Master talked about that day.
I saw that the Lord of the Seven Peaks also wore a new set of clothes today, and his hair and beard were carefully taken care of, making him look radiant.
He nodded to Li Changsheng.
His senior brother also nodded, and then asked the seventh elder to take the main seat and said to Jiang Qing:
"Junior brother, three buckles on the head."
"ah?"
Jiang Qing hasn't reacted yet. Didn't he worship Qing Su as his teacher? Why did the Lord of the Seventh Peak take the main seat, and even if he worships the Lord of the Seventh Peak as his master, the other guests have not yet arrived.
He was about to ask.
The Seventh Peak Master couldn't help but speak: "From now on, I will be your master, and I will do my best to teach you."
true and false?
Jiang Qing looked at Li Changsheng.
The latter nodded and explained: "After detailed discussions, we decided that I, the Seventh Peak Master, and the Peak Master Qingsu will work together to train you."
Jiang Qing's head was dizzy.
It's amazing to be taught by a peak master. He is directly two people, and the senior brother is only one step away from the peak master.
He looked at Li Changsheng stupidly.
"Teacher, teacher. Teacher."
Li Changsheng stretched out his finger and tapped him on the head, "Farewell to my master. From now on, I will still call him senior brother. I'm used to it. As for the Seventh Peak Master."
"I will be your second master from now on."
"But you must not let other peaks know about this, otherwise they will definitely suppress you."
Jiang Qing suddenly realized.
No wonder they dragged him to become a disciple when no one came.
"The disciple has met the master."
"Hey, hey." The Lord of Seven Peaks couldn't hold his butt at all, so he got down from his position and quickly helped him up, "Good disciple, please get up."
This scene made Li Changsheng shake his head. Is this a distant relative or something?
That's it when we just met.
How will you be pampered in the future?
"Disciple, this is a divine machine disk. Think of it as your apprenticeship ceremony. Once you use it, you can change your destiny against the will of heaven. Don't use it lightly unless you reach the critical point."
"Thank you, Master."
Jiang Qing knew how precious it was. His second master obviously didn't have long lifespan, but he actually gave it to himself with such a life-changing thing.
This made him a little overwhelmed.
He didn't prepare a gift or anything for this sudden incident.
"Hahaha, Lao Qi, why are you here so early?" A figure stepped forward.
"I have nothing to do, so I came here."
"."
soon.
More and more fellow disciples are coming.
Seeing the guests full, the food was served on the table, and the whole hall became more and more lively.
"When was the last time it was so lively?" Li Changsheng whispered with a dazed look.
"I don't remember."
Qingsu was still wearing the long skirt, and the hem of the skirt swayed gently with her steps as she walked by.
With a little nostalgia, Li Changsheng's thoughts returned to reality, and he saw Qingsu like the Nine Heavens Mysterious Lady, and she became the focus of everyone as soon as she appeared.
Especially some new disciples who came to watch the excitement. The Ninth Peak has been closed for too long, and many people have never seen it.
Someone whispered: "Is this the legendary female peak master?"
"It should be, I just heard about it before, but I didn't expect it to look so young."
"Look, the one who is on the stage now is Qin Xiaosui, Qin Fairy, right?"
"So beautiful, so cute!"
"Humph, why don't you have any ambition? What's the use of exclaiming? I have the appearance of an emperor, and I will make Qin Fairy fall in love with me in the future!"
Amidst the noise of the crowd.
"One kowtow--"
Jiang Qing and Qin Xiaosui stood in front of Qingsu, bowing to the master, etc.
Why is it like a wedding ceremony?
Jiang Qing was wondering.
"Two kowtows--"
"Wow!"
There was a commotion in the audience.
"Hey, buddy, you have the potential to be an emperor, don't cry, men don't cry easily"
After the apprenticeship ceremony, the ceremony was completed.
If it is said that the name Jiang Qing was only famous among the new disciples before, now in the entire sect, I am afraid that everyone knows him.
Moreover, he is a disciple of Qingsu, and his seniority is very high. People in the ninth peak may still call him junior brother. But most disciples in other peaks will probably call him uncle, which is a little higher than their master's seniority.
Qingsu took out the gift for Jiang Qing, a sharp sword with a cold light all over, and the hilt was engraved with the words "Chengying".
In addition to this sword, other gifts were still being taken out.
The eyes of the seven peak masters were straight.
Staring at Li Changsheng with resentment, "Didn't you say that this was the deposit for the apprenticeship gift and that it had been given to my disciple? How did it become yours?"
"Tell me, did you also take your share from me?"
"Give it back to me!"
Li Changsheng looked puzzled: "Seventh Peak Master, what are you talking about? Why should I give you my things?"
"You!"
He was choked. What could he do? He couldn't go up and make trouble. He comforted himself, 'Forget it, it's all for my disciple anyway. '
Then the host read out a paragraph of stage speech according to the script written by Jiang Qing.
"Next is the entertainment program."
"Please welcome the bodybuilding master of the Ninth Peak, Mr. Shen Chengxian. Bring us, tough guys! Aerobics!"
"Applause!"
The whole audience: "."
"Dear audience, please look at my chest muscles, ha! Hey!! Ha." In order to show his muscles, Shen Chengxian only wore a pair of briefs, "How about it, everyone, even my butt is very artistic."
He shook his hips.
"Ugh. No, who did I offend by eating a meal?" Someone couldn't help but vomit.
"Ah brother! I know this food is delicious, but if you vomit it out, don't eat it again, right? Ugh."
Soon there was a lot of vomiting below.
"Get out!!"
"Get out, who are you disgusting?"
Seeing that the situation was not good, Tang Chengren in the backstage quickly threw out a handful of poison pills, which turned into mist when they saw the wind, and poisoned Shen Chengxian to the ground in just a few seconds.
He straightened his clothes.
He signaled the staff to drag this guy who was foaming at the mouth away, so as not to affect his performance.
