Two days later, the gang sent people down.

"Is that him?" Tangning came to Xi Wei's room. A tall man in black with a stern expression looked at him and said. It was actually the man named Qi who sent him here.

"Yes." Qin Luo nodded: "He has only been here for seven or eight months, and his internal energy has condensed in his body. I felt that something was fishy, ​​so I reported it to the gang leader."

"Come with me."

The man stood up and walked out. Tangning followed Qin Luo and whispered, "Where are you going?"

"The gang wants to see you."

"I want to take Ruru with me."

"What." Qin Luo was stunned for a moment, then reacted and said with some humor: "Go see the gang leader first, and we'll talk about other things tomorrow."

Tangning stopped and shook her head: "No."

Qin Luo looked at him and smiled as he looked like he would rather die than give in: "Okay then! Hurry up."

Tang Ning hurriedly ran to the tent. When the man named Qi saw him running away quickly, he stopped and looked at Qin Luo.

"He went to pick up his little wife."

"ah?"

Liu Ruhan was lying on the table with a book of accounts to reconcile, when Tang Ning suddenly opened the door, walked straight to her, took her little hand and ran back.

"What are you doing?" Mr. Min next to him was startled and asked.

"Something happened." Tangning walked out the door before she could say anything else.

"Ruru, we have to leave here. A person came here just now. He was the one who sent us here last time. He wants to take us out now." Tangning said while holding her little hand and running.

Liu Ruhan kept nodding.

When the two of them arrived at the foot of the mountain, Qin Luo and the man named Qi had been waiting there. When they saw him arriving, they got on their horses. Qin Luo pulled Tang Ning and Liu Ruhan onto the horse.

The horses' hooves were like the wind. An hour later, the four of them arrived at the caravan. The man named Qi and Qin Luo led them in.

After passing through the gate, the man surnamed Qi casually summoned a maid, glanced at Liu Ruhan and said, "Take this little girl to have a good rest."

Liu Ruhan held Tang Ning's hand tightly, and Tang Ning whispered: "You go have something to eat first, I will be there in a moment."

Liu Ruhan reluctantly followed the maid.

After passing through several more doors, the three of them entered the main hall.

Tang Ning stood behind the two and looked up. Five people were sitting in the hall, and the person sitting on the main seat was Cui Yilin, the Cui gang leader whom he had met once.

"Master, Master, we've brought them here." The man surnamed Qi saluted everyone.

"Yes." Cui Yilin nodded, stood up and walked to Tang Ning, looked him up and down, and said with a smile, "Sure enough, he has very good bones. No wonder he was able to condense his internal energy in such a short time."

"Although the bones are good, the internal strength that can be condensed within a few months is too sensational. I'm afraid the matter is not that simple." A person behind Cui Yilin said.

"In martial arts, everyone has his own chance. Are there not many strange people and strange things in the world? No matter what, this is his own chance." Another person said

"Who is your surname and where is your home?" Cui Yilin said with a gentle smile.

"My name is Tang Ning, and my home is in Tangliu Village, Anning County."

"Why come to the caravan?"

"My parents were killed by thieves, and I came here to beg with others. I was lucky enough to meet the prefect. It was Uncle Wang Dehu who brought me here."

"Oh, I remembered. One day, Brother Wang entrusted me with my two children. I didn't expect it to be you. In this case, Tangning, are you willing to accept me as your teacher?"

"Yes." Tangning nodded.

"Congratulations, senior brother, for recruiting another prodigy."

"This boy has very high qualifications. If he can get the guidance of his senior brother, he will definitely become a great master in the future, and he may become another great master."

Several people behind him said one after another.

"Come here, serve tea." Cui Yilin was also very happy.

"Bring the tea to the gang leader and call him master." Qin Luo whispered from the side.

Tang Ning took the tea from a maid, walked forward, knelt on her knees, and offered the tea: "Master."

Cui Yilin picked up the tea and took a sip and put it down: "Tangning, since you have become my disciple, you will be my disciple Cui Yilin from now on. You must remember that when we walk in the world, we should be chivalrous. When we see injustice on the road, we will draw our sword to help.

, you must not rely on the strong to bully the weak or use your power to bully others.”

"yes."

"Today is just an initiation ceremony. In ten days, I will gather the brothers in the gang and formally become my disciples. This is your senior brother Qi Yunfei. You can ask him for advice while I am away."

"Senior Brother Qi." Tang Ning turned around and saluted him.

"Yunfei, I need to take more care of your junior brother in the future."

"Yes, master."

"These are all your senior uncles. This is Senior Uncle Mo Qianshan, this is Senior Senior Uncle Yin Xian, this is Senior Uncle Dong Hai, and this is Senior Uncle Hou Yutang."

Tangning saluted one by one.

"By the way, I remember that Brother Wang brought two children here that day, and a little girl came with you. How is she now?"

"She is my wife, and she came with me."

Cui Yilin was stunned for a moment and then laughed, and several people next to him also had smiles on their faces.

"You are like this at a young age, and you will definitely be a famous figure in the future! Senior brother, this is different from you." Mo Qianshan said with a smile.

"Okay, you go down and rest first!" Cui Yilin waved his hand to ask him to leave.

"Luo'er, you don't have to worry about those children! Let's go to Shanghe County first. There are a group of fine horses from the Kingdom of Wu. Go and take them. Among them is a pair of white jade snow horses, which King Qinghe is interested in.

, Don’t make any mistakes." Yin Zhengxian said.

"Yes, master."

"Have a good rest and leave tomorrow."

Tang Ning went out and asked a maid to find Liu Ruhan's location, then she ran straight away.

"Ruru, do you know why they are looking for me?" Tangning said eagerly as soon as she entered the room.

Liu Ruhan held his hand with her little hand and shook her head. Seeing his happy look, she also felt happy.

"Do you still remember when Uncle Wang brought us here last time? That gang leader Cui Yilin has accepted me as his disciple, and in ten days the whole gang will be officially announced."

"In the future, not only will I be able to learn better martial arts, but my monthly salary will also increase a lot." Tang Ning said while sitting on the edge of the bed.

"After the salary increases, we will be able to save more money and buy a big house in the future. We will no longer have to live in someone else's place."

Liu Ruhan looked at him with big eyes and made gestures with her fingers for a while.

"Well, we should live here first now."

"What do you mean by those things in the house? Forget it, we'll buy them in a few days. However, Cheng Qian doesn't know we're here yet! And Uncle Min doesn't know you're here either. Is it time?

Go back and talk to them, especially Uncle Min and Aunt Min, let’s find a time to go back, buy some things and see them.”

Tang Ning was talking to her. At noon, a maid brought food. After a while, Qi Yunfei came over.

"Senior Brother Qi." Tangning opened the door and saw him, and bowed respectfully.

Qi Yunfei nodded and walked in: "Junior brother Tang, in ten days you will officially join the master's sect. At that time, not only the brothers from the caravan, big and small, but also some of the master's friends from the world of martial arts will also come.

He is from a well-known and upright family, and etiquette is absolutely essential. Do you know the ceremony of apprenticeship?"

Tangning shook her head: "Please give me some advice, senior brother."

Qi Yunfei took out a volume of book from his arms and handed it to Tang Ning: "This is the Book of Rites. You must read it thoroughly. You must also read through the apprenticeship ceremony section first to avoid making a joke in front of the guests."

"yes.:

"And this." Qi Yunfei took out a wooden sign: "You are not an official disciple of the caravan yet. You are not allowed to come in and out of the gang at will. If someone stops you, you can show the wooden sign to him, but don't give it to him. These few

You'd better not go out on the day, as the master may summon you at any time."

Tangning took the wooden sign and said, "I've written it down. Thank you, senior brother."

"If anything happens, just come to Xiyuan to find me." Qi Yunfei stood up and left.

In the next few days, Tang Ning would only read the Book of Rites given to him by Qi Yunfei in his room every day, and occasionally take Liu Ruhan around the gang.

On the day of his apprenticeship, it was indeed full of guests and very lively. Heroes from all walks of life in the Chu Kingdom came to congratulate him. Almost all the foreign disciples in the caravan rushed back to congratulate him, plus some squires and dignitaries who were friends with him. There were a whole number of banquets.

Ten tables.

Tang Ning was naturally the central figure in this feast. Fortunately, she had read the Book of Rites well in the past few days, so she behaved appropriately, but there was one thing that was rather embarrassing.

That is, he completely forgot what happened that day. He did indeed forget. He completely forgot. He only remembered that he was very busy.

I can't remember who I met or what I said.

The reason is simple, he drank too much.

Most of Cui Yilin's friends were heroes in the world, and there were many alcoholics. Naturally, Tang Ning couldn't refuse to drink on such occasions. In addition, Cui Yilin didn't stop him, so he drank one cup after another... He had never drank alcohol before.
To be continued...
