Others are still struggling, but I am just slacking off.
Chapter 11: Tea and Apprenticeship
The faces of the disciples were filled with surprise and excitement. They wanted to speak but did not dare to, and their eyes were full of stars.
Seeing these disciples hesitant to speak, Jiang Li thought about how brave he was in the beginning, pestering his master with questions. He looked at the three expressionless disciples he had just accepted, and felt a little annoyed. He should have accepted another chattering little disciple. The first two were like this, and these three were emotionless. He sighed slightly and said, "Someone, go and call the elders over!"
A disciple bowed and turned to leave.
"Qian Yuting, Yang Hui, Qian Yushui, the three of you come to your master," Jiang Li closed his eyes and stopped talking.
The three brothers and sisters walked to Jiang Li's side without asking any more questions.
"Reporting to the Peak Master, the three elders are waiting outside the hall."
Jiang Li opened his eyes: "Please let them in."
The three elders greeted Jiang Li and said, "Greetings, Peak Master."
"Please sit down!" Jiang Li nodded and introduced the three elders to the children: "These three are the first elder, the second elder, and the third elder of Yitian Peak. Greet the three elders."
"Greetings to the First Elder, Second Elder, and Third Elder!"
The disciples greeted him.
The three elders observed the disciples calmly: "Okay, get up!"
Jiang Li raised his hand and pointed: "These are the three disciples I accepted. The third disciple is Qian Yuting, the fourth disciple is Yang Hui, and the fifth disciple is Qian Yushui. The other six disciples are also very outstanding. You can choose according to your own situation."
The three elders nodded and looked at the other six disciples.
Seeing the expressions of the three elders, Jiang Li knew that they were satisfied, and then said: "Hua Ling Sect is different from other sects. The master chooses the disciple, and the disciple can also choose the master. Both sides cannot force each other."
"Yes." The three elders looked at each other and said, "You six follow us."
The great elder stood up, bowed and said goodbye: "Peak Master, we will leave first."
Jiang Li saw the nine people disappear in the hall, leaving only the master and his four disciples: "Come to me."
The three of them walked into the hall and looked up at Jiang Li carefully.
Seeing the bold and curious looks in the three people's eyes, Jiang Li laughed out loud instead of their previous calmness.
The three of them just felt confused.
Seeing the confused expressions of the three people, Jiang Li cleared his throat and said, "I accepted two disciples before you. The eldest disciple Zhuoran has a single thunder spiritual root and is now in the early stage of the Nascent Soul. The second disciple Qiao Xinxin has a single ice spiritual root and is in the middle stage of the Golden Core. Now I officially accept Qian Yuting as the third disciple, Yang Hui as the fourth disciple, and Qian Yushui as the fifth disciple."
He carefully observed the expressions of his three disciples. They still had no expression on their faces. He sighed in his heart and continued, "Master does not ask you to love each other, but you must not use swords against each other. Do you understand?"
"Yes, Master!" The three of them looked even more serious.
Jiang Li waved his hand, and three cups of tea appeared on the table: "You two can become my disciples!"
Qian Yushui and the other two held up the teacups in both hands, knelt side by side, and raised them above their heads: "Master, please have some tea!"
"Okay!" Jiang Li picked up the tea of Qian Yuting, Yang Hui, and Qian Yushu in order and took a sip from each.
He raised his hand, and three storage rings appeared on his palm: "These storage rings contain the sect's entry-level mental method. Just drip blood to recognize the master. Each person will have a fourth-grade spiritual sword, a set of exercises, 10,000 low-grade spiritual stones, and 10 medium-grade spiritual stones. The most important thing for you now is to draw the energy into your body. There is no rush for the exercises. Take your time. Come here at dawn tomorrow and I will teach you how to get started."
He then placed the three storage rings into the hands of the three people.
"Somebody come!"
The manager of the Peak Master's Hall walked out from the door and bowed.
Seeing the tired look in the disciples' eyes, Jiang Li said, "You are tired from walking the stone steps today. Go and have a rest with the steward first."
"Yes, Master!"
Qian Yushui and the other two followed the steward and left.
The steward led the three people to the back mountain of the main peak of Yitian Peak. He didn't say much until he arrived in front of a courtyard: "Junior brother and sister, my surname is Liu Yiming..."
"Senior Brother Liu" three people greet
Liu Yi nodded and raised his hand to indicate the courtyard in front of him: "You can choose a courtyard here. The disciples have separate courtyards. The courtyards are cleaned regularly. Food will be delivered to you every day. Of course, you can also make your own food. Each disciple can choose a disciple to do odd jobs."
After saying this, he clapped his hands, and twenty-four errand disciples came over from a distance.
Qian Yushui looked up at the twenty-four people. There were all kinds of looks in their eyes. Some were curious, some were indifferent, and some were jealous. The disciples below looked at Qian Yushui and talked about it.
[Why can she, who also has five spiritual roots, become a direct disciple, while we can only be servants?]
[That’s too unfair.]
[If you want fairness, don’t come to practice Taoism. Where is fairness in this world?]
[Fair, what right do you have to talk about fairness? She can go up to the 760th step, but you can only go up to the 110th step?]
The errand disciples fell silent instantly, and there were also some knowledgeable people among them.
Qian Yushui and the other two watched the minor quarrel without interrupting. After this small argument, they all had disciples that they were satisfied with.
Seeing this, Liu Yi pointed at three of the errand disciples and said, "You three, come to the front."
Then he turned to Qian Yushui and the other two and said with a smile, "Are you interested in these three people?"
The three of them still had no expression on their faces, but their surprised eyes revealed their emotions.
Liu Yi smiled: "You three stay, the others leave."
"Yes, Manager Liu!"
Liu Yi's expression suddenly became serious: "You three have all learned the rules, so I don't need to teach you what to do. If you have any questions, please raise them now so that I can change people."
"Don't worry, Manager Liu, we know."
"Yes!" Liu Yi turned around and smiled flatteringly: "Junior brothers and sisters, after you have chosen the courtyards, ask them to go to the affairs hall to collect the clothes and monthly allowances for the disciples. The sect gives each disciple two sets of sect clothing, which are fifth-level robes; the monthly allowance for the disciples is a bottle of Juling Dan, a bottle of Peiyuan Dan, and fifty low-grade spirit stones. If you have any problems, you can come to me at any time! You can take your time to choose, I will go to report to the peak master first."
Seeing that the Qian brothers and sisters were silent, Yang Hui said, "Thank you, Senior Brother Liu. You have worked hard!"
Liu Yi had long seen through the personalities of the Qian brothers and sisters. Seeing the gratitude in their eyes, he nodded with satisfaction and left.
"Brother Qian, Sister Qian, I'll choose this one." Yang Hui didn't want to leave anymore, they were all the same anyway.
"Okay, we'll take our leave first!" The brother and sister nodded and left with two servants.
The two men looked at the two courtyards farthest away.
"I choose this one. I don't want to leave. Please help me walk a little further!"
Qian Yushui saw that the environment of the yard was good, but most importantly, she was too tired.
Qian Yuting nodded and turned to look at the other two: "We brothers and sisters are not harsh people, but we cannot tolerate betrayal. If you want to stay here, you must not reveal what you know or see to outsiders. If you betray me, I will make you live a life worse than death. Now you still have the opportunity to choose. Once you choose..."
The two looked at each other, gritted their teeth and knelt down: "Brother and sister, please rest assured, we will never betray you!"
Seeing the sincere expressions and clear eyes of the two, Qian Yuting nodded with satisfaction: "Okay! As long as you do your job well, we will never treat you unfairly. Your monthly allowance is five low-grade spirit stones, which will be deducted from my monthly allowance."
"Thank you, seniors," the two hurriedly expressed their gratitude, fearing that they would miss the opportunity.
After all, the monthly allowance for a menial disciple is only two low-grade spirit stones, and Senior Brother Qian gave more than twice as much, so don't be a fool.
Seeing this, Qian Yuting nodded with satisfaction: "Now tell me about your situation."
"Yes, Senior Brother Qian! My name is Fang Xu, and she is my cousin from the same clan, Fang Na. The reason we are here is to take care of each other."
Qian Yuting looked at the innocent and determined eyes of the brother and sister, and their caring for each other did not seem fake. He nodded with satisfaction: "Fang Xu will follow me from now on, and Fang Na will follow my sister. Everyone is tired today, so please leave first."
"Yes"
After the two walked away, Qian Yushui expressed her concerns: "Brother, I wonder how our parents are doing now?"
Qian Yuting rubbed Qian Yu's hair and comforted her softly: "Don't worry, sister. Dad and mom are both sensible people. Nothing will happen. I will practice to the first level of Qi training as soon as possible and leave the sect to see Dad and mom!"
When Qian Yushui heard this, he immediately became anxious: "Brother, I read in the storybook that practicing too hastily can easily lead to obsession. We should just let it go. I believe that Dad and Mom will understand."
"Okay, I'll listen to you," Qian Yuting promised with a smile.
Qian Yushui looked tired, and pushed Qian Yuting out the door: "Brother, you must be tired, we have to go to Master tomorrow."
"Okay, you should go to bed early too." Seeing that she couldn't open her eyes and was about to laugh, Qian Yuting nodded and left.
