Chapter 4 Apprenticeship
Lin Feng chose to travel in the evening, because at this time, Uncle Jiu would most likely be in Yizhuang.
It would be ridiculous if I wanted to become a disciple but couldn't find the right one.
In the evening, the gate of Yizhuang has been closed.
Lin Feng stepped forward and knocked on the door. After a while, Wen Cai came to open the door.
Seeing the unfamiliar face of Lin Feng, Wen Cai asked curiously: "Who are you?"
Lin Feng cupped his hands and said, "I'm Lin Feng. I heard about Uncle Jiu's reputation and came here to study under him."
This was the first time that Wencai saw someone take the initiative to become a disciple. Normal people would not want to come to this kind of industry.
But when people are here, it depends on Uncle Jiu whether he accepts them or not. Wen Cai doesn’t dare to make the decision without permission.
"come in!"
Following Wen Cai into the Yi Zhuang, Lin Feng saw Uncle Jiu sitting on a lounge chair in the lobby. He was dressed in smart clothes, with black and white hair, full of energy, and a classic unibrow on his forehead.
Wen Cai walked up to Uncle Jiu and said softly: "Master, this man's name is Lin Feng. He said he heard about your reputation and came to learn from you."
Lin Feng cupped his hands and said, "Please ask Uncle Ninth to help you!"
As for Uncle Jiu, he is actually very willing to accept a disciple. Qiu Sheng and Wen Cai are both not very successful. They have practiced for more than ten years and have not achieved anything famous. It may be difficult to inherit his mantle. And this
industry, few people are interested.
However, Uncle Jiu didn't understand Lin Feng at all and accepted him as a disciple rashly, which was not in line with his style.
Uncle Jiu thought for a while and said: "I'm very happy that you have this intention. However, I don't know anything about you, so accepting you here is not only irresponsible to you, but also inconsistent with my Maoshan rules. So be it,
I will accept you as a registered disciple first, conduct an inspection, and if you pass the test, you will be officially accepted into the Maoshan Gate Wall. If you are not suitable..."
Lin Feng said: "Uncle Jiu, don't worry, I understand the rules. If I can't pass the inspection, I will never call myself a disciple of Maoshan, let alone your disciple."
Uncle Jiu said: "As long as you know it well! First tell me your own origins."
Lin Feng nodded, "Yes!"
Lin Feng then made up a set of origins.
Of course, Lin Feng could not say that he had traveled through time. He could only say that he came from Wuchang, attended private schools, attended foreign schools, and studied abroad.
Lin Feng even spoke a few words in English. Of course, Uncle Jiu couldn't understand a word of this English, but he felt very high-class.
If the true and false are mixed together, it is naturally impossible for Uncle Jiu to go to Wuchang for research.
However, Lin Feng was fluent in foreign language, which made Uncle Jiu trust him a little more.
These days, foreign gadgets are very rare and represent class.
Lin Feng, an international student, wanted to take Uncle Jiu as his teacher, which made Uncle Jiu feel very proud.
After listening, Uncle Jiu nodded, "Okay! Stretch your hand over and let me see what your qualifications are like?"
When Lin Feng heard this, he stretched out his hand to Uncle Jiu.
Uncle Jiu stretched out his right hand and placed it on Lin Feng's pulse.
Lin Feng only felt a cool feeling pass through his pulse, enter the meridians in his wrist, and immediately flow through his whole body.
Uncle Jiu's expression was first surprised, then shocked, and finally happy.
After a cup of tea, Uncle Jiu withdrew his cool message and stopped.
Lin Feng said: "Master, what are my qualifications?"
Uncle Jiu praised: "Your qualifications are top-notch. If you practice since childhood, your future is limitless. Starting now, although it is a little slow, but as long as you work hard, it is not too late."
According to Uncle Jiu's investigation, Lin Feng's meridians throughout his body are smooth and more than half as wide as those of ordinary people. This is an innate sign.
This kind of qualification is one of a kind.
Whether practicing martial arts or practicing Taoism, you will get twice the result with half the effort.
Of course, Uncle Jiu was afraid that Lin Feng would slack off because of this, so he didn't say anything explicitly.
When Uncle Jiu said this, Lin Feng immediately understood that he was hit by the mysterious gray ball, and it must have been the mysterious gray ball that washed his essence.
Lin Feng pretended to be happy and said: "Really? That's great! Master, don't worry, I will work hard to live up to such a good qualification and live up to your expectations."
Uncle Jiu nodded and said, "You stay in Yizhuang first and temporarily help Wencai with the chores. He will teach you these chores. Starting tomorrow, I will teach you some basic Taoist techniques and health-preserving boxing techniques."
Lin Feng said respectfully: "It all depends on Master's arrangement!"
The chores Uncle Jiu mentioned were nothing more than guarding the charity village, receiving visitors, taking care of corpses, cooking and so on.
The more common things are, the more we can see a person's style and indirectly their character.
As for courage, daring to stay in a place like Yizhuang for a long time is courage.
As for talent, Uncle Jiu had already found out and was overjoyed.
After giving the instructions, Uncle Jiu said: "Wencai, go prepare dinner. Xiaofeng, help Wencai."
Lin Feng has no opinion.
When preparing dinner, Lin Feng asked Wen Cai and soon understood all the trivial matters in Yizhuang.
After dinner, Uncle Jiu went to rest by himself, leaving Lin Feng and Wencai to sleep in the lobby together and keep watch.
This is also a test, which tests your courage.
The next day, Lin Feng was there, and all kinds of chores and literary talents were handed over to Lin Feng, while he watched from the side.
The euphemistic name of literary talent is that he let Lin Feng practice, but in fact he was lazy and let Lin Feng do it.
Lin Feng didn't care and completed it meticulously.
Uncle Jiu observed it for a day and was very satisfied.
During dinner, Lin Feng attacked Wencai again.
After dinner, Uncle Jiu taught Lin Feng some basic knowledge about martial arts and Taoism, such as various taboos, human body meridians diagram, etc.
Lin Feng, a master of learning, memorized everything in one go, understood everything, and sometimes even drew inferences from one instance to another.
This made Uncle Jiu very satisfied. You must know that when Uncle Jiu taught Wencai and Qiu Sheng, he taught them three times and they still didn't understand it.
As the saying goes, there is no harm without comparison.
It can be said that apart from his character, Uncle Jiu is not completely confident about Lin Feng yet. Uncle Jiu is very satisfied with Lin Feng's qualifications, attitude, and courage.
Uncle Jiu decided in his heart that once he passed the test of Lin Feng's character, he would pass the mantle to Lin Feng.
Jiu Shu taught, Lin Feng learned, and both parties were very happy.
Uncle Jiu felt that he had finally found the successor, and Lin Feng felt that he would start to practice.
When teaching, time always passes quickly, and it’s early morning before I know it.
When Uncle Jiu had almost finished teaching these basic knowledge, there was suddenly a loud knock on the door of Yizhuang.
Uncle Jiu, Lin Feng and Wencai were all in the lobby. Wencai said: "Master, you and Junior Brother Lin continue, I will open the door."
Lin Feng smiled and said, "I'd better go, just to verify what I just learned."
Uncle Jiu nodded, "Okay! Be careful!"
