Zhu Xian: Learn from the Great Ying Immortal and rebuild the Trinity School

Chapter 94: The Ceremony of the Founding Disciple of the Trinity Sect

Accepting disciples?
This matter seems to be a bit exaggerated.

Some say that you should be more serious and choose an auspicious day, while others say that you should just go with the flow and that it is better to choose a day than to wait for one.

As for Xu Zhiqiu, she is a whore who tries to gain favor by pretending to be a saint. Even the most powerful people in the world want to control her.

Having recognized the latter,
Yet, he shamelessly used his newly acquired superficial knowledge of Qi Men Dun Jia to cast a fortune.

The result is that the pattern shown by the hexagram is - Ding Qi meets Gui - a sparrow jumps into the river.

To explain it, it means the six Ding in the sky plus the six Gui underground.

Ding belongs to fire, which represents Vermilion Bird, and Gui belongs to water, so Ding plus Gui represents Vermilion Bird jumping into the river, and everything will be disastrous at this time.

All in all, pretty bad.

So his expression changed immediately, and he began to criticize and belittle this strange divination.

He also said that feudal superstition is absolutely unacceptable, and even threw out some nonsense like "My destiny is in my own hands, not in the hands of God."

The main focus is reality.

Just like that, in a day when the sun was not very bright, and even a little bit scorching.

Xu Zhiqiu Qiangang is arbitrary,
The project of "The Ceremony of the Founding Disciple of Sanyi School Paying Attention to the Master" was launched as scheduled.

The following is a record of the project progress:

"We should be sincere and cautious in dealing with things, and not act deceitfully or with a confused mind."

"You should guard your Qi and calm your mind, as if you were facing a sharp blade. You should not overwork and injure your body, or become emotionally unstable."

"We should act according to the situation. If we lose our integrity and make things chaotic, we will not be able to deal with things effectively..."

In the small courtyard, Xu Zhiqiu moved a throne and sat on it, with a stern face, pretending to be dignified.

Facing Wu Chongguang who was kneeling in front of him, he recounted one by one what his teacher had said to him when he first started learning.

"The above are the rules of our Trinity Sect. In addition to these rules, I have another thing to warn you -"

Wu Chongguang nodded and said, "I'm listening."

He didn't even look at it, just squinted at the sky with a deep look on his face.

"Humans are extraordinary animals that stand tall and proud. Now that you have entered my school, I hope you will uphold the right path, remember your roots as a human being, practice diligently, think carefully, discern clearly, and act faithfully."

Xu Zhiqiu paused when he spoke of this.
"Of course, you are still young, and I don't expect you to understand all this now. I will teach you slowly in the future..."

Wu Chongguang nodded, but did not express anything else.

I have to say, the performance was a bit dull.

"..."

Xu Zhiqiu was a little embarrassed, but he also understood.

After all, he has always lived in the snow-capped mountains, and his family tradition is from southern Xinjiang. He can't say that he knows nothing about the etiquette of paying respect to a teacher in the Central Plains, but he can only say that he doesn't understand it at all.

then,

"Kowtow."

“How many?”

"… Just kowtow three times as a token of your appreciation."

Say nothing.

Bang, bang, bang!

The three kowtows were so loud and sincere that Xu Zhiqiu finally laughed out loud.

He raised his hand to signal him to stand up, and then proceeded to the next step - the apprenticeship tea.

Wu Chongguang went to the kitchen and came out with a bucket of cold water...

Xu Zhiqiu tilted his head back and gulped down the entire cup of liquid, then burped contentedly.

then,

"Call and listen."

"Master."

"Eh."

Xu Zhiqiu nodded with a smile, appearing indifferent on the surface, but actually feeling very relieved in his heart.

Just like that, the "Ceremony of the Founding Disciple of the Trinity Sect Accepting Disciples" ended so hastily.

Then, Xu Zhiqiu led him into the house, took him to a square table and asked him to kneel down.

"Kowtow."

Wu Chongguang looked up and saw a tablet on the table and three incense sticks in the copper burner.

Strangely, there was no name on the tablet, only the two words "Trinity" engraved above the brow.

"Who is this?" he couldn't help but ask. "Your master."

"Since you are the master, why don't you write your name?"

"It's not yet time."

Xu Zhiqiu blushed a little when he said this.

The ancients said that one should get married, start a career and bring honor to the family, but he has achieved nothing at the moment and is too embarrassed to write the name of his old mentor.

Wu Zhongguang tilted his head and thought about it, then turned into a curious baby and asked again:

"What is the Trinity?"

Xu Zhiqiu frowned, "Didn't I tell you before?"

"No ah."

With an embarrassed look on his face: "...our home."

"Where is our home then?"

"...Under construction."

"Is there anyone else in our family?"

"Not yet... but of course there will be in the future."

"Oh." Wu Chongguang lowered his head and picked at his fingers, not knowing what he was thinking.

Seeing that he had no more questions to ask, Xu Zhiqiu secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

Patted him on the back,
"Okay, go to the courtyard and practice. After you get off the pile, soak in the medicine barrel for an hour. I'll chat with your master here."

"Yes."

Wu Chongguang went to the yard to stand in meditation, leaving Xu Zhiqiu alone, staring at the blank tablet in a daze.

The lingering sandalwood smoke seemed to sweep away some of his thoughts.

"Master...you have a grandson now."

He spoke to himself in front of the tablet:

"I am an incompetent disciple. I didn't understand what it meant to be a disciple in my previous life, but now I have become a master in this life. For a moment, I feel a little..."

"This is the first time for me to get married. I am really afraid that I will not be able to do this job well and will mislead other students and ruin the reputation of our Trinity."

……

In the path of practicing Taoism, one must pay attention to wealth, friends, Dharma and place.

He has already obtained the Heart Technique of Reversing Life, and there are also the secrets of various skills from various schools in the inner scene, which can complement each other.

If you continue to study in this way, it should not be a problem to break through the third level of reverse life, or even the "return to one" after the third level, in the future.

As for wealth and land, although they are scarce at the moment, as long as you keep the mindset to manage them, you will always be able to earn them in the future.

As for this partner, there is probably no other person in the world who has such expertise as him, so there is no point in talking about it.

Apart from these four items, the most important thing for him is the construction of the sect.

The most important thing among these is the successor, the apprentice.

Now I have a senior disciple.

But he was not sure how to be a master.

I have something to say: Have you ever seen a pig run even though you have never eaten pork? If you have never been a master, do you have a master?

He spoke: He had seen how pigs run, and he also had a master, but when it was his turn to do it, he still had no idea.

Is it a bit cool?

Or be more easy-going?
Or to be serious, stick first?

Or is he careless, rough but delicate?
Or should he maintain a dignified appearance, restrain himself and return to propriety, so that his disciples would both respect and fear him?
You can't get along well with your apprentice, then are you still father and son?

What kind of "style" he should choose is the difficult choice he faces now.

There is one unbreakable principle: teaching students in accordance with their aptitude.

When faced with a lack of inner emotions, you have to coax them into coming.

When facing those who are cunning and naughty, they have to be beaten.

When it comes to those who are obedient and sensible, you have to give them some advice.

But what should we do for people like Wu Chongguang who have ideas in their heads but low emotional intelligence?

You can't just "give in", right?

"Hiss... If you don't want to, then give it a try?"
