Apprentice of the Heavens

Chapter 186

College Back Mountain
high cliff

In the library cave, Li Ming put down the books in hand, took a sip of the tea, and looked up at the old gentleman who was buried in copying books on the desk, a look of curiosity emerged.

"Old man, how long have you been in this library cave?"

It has been more than five years since Li Ming came to Zangshudong to read books. From the first day, the old man in front of him has been reading and copying books, reading and endorsing books, rain or shine, and everything is not disturbed.

Hearing Li Ming's question, the old man did not stop copying the book, but his eyes were annoyed, as if he was annoyed that Li Ming interrupted his copying. After a long time, when Li Ming thought he would not get the answer, the old man After copying the last page, he slowly opened his mouth and said:

"Ke Haoran also asked me back then. I really can't remember, I only know that it was a long time ago."

Hearing this, Li Ming couldn't help but respect the old man. This man can be called a bookworm. How many people can do the same thing day after day.Even if I haven't experienced the loneliness of endless void, I can't achieve such a state of mind.

Seeing that the old gentleman picked up a book again and began to copy, Li Ming didn't bother him anymore, and quietly watched the old gentleman's copying. so-so.

For a moment Li Ming couldn't help admiring the other party, and after a deep salute, he stepped out of the cave and looked down at the mountain behind the academy.

It is already deep winter, the lawn of the back mountain is still green, the stream flows through and flows into Fangjing Lake, and several houses are built in the forest by the lake, creating a sense of tranquility.

Li Ming looked up at the sky, and the setting sun was already half hidden in the sky, leaving only the afterglow.

"Well, it's time."

Li Ming stepped forward without moving a foot, but suddenly disappeared into the void, and when he reappeared, he was already in the kitchen of the house.

Glancing at the long-awaited master, Li Ming couldn't help but lament his enthusiasm for cooking. With a wave of his sleeves, a breeze blew by, and the prepared ingredients were placed neatly on the plate as if cut by a knife. There is no fire in Taichung,
But after a while, bursts of vegetable aroma came to the nostrils. The master sniffed the aroma of vegetables intoxicatedly, lightly sandwiched a piece of meat and chewed lightly, nodded in satisfaction, and praised:
"Little friend's culinary skills are at their peak, but this old man is not at a disadvantage."

He was extremely satisfied with the previous transaction in his heart, but Li Ming just smiled modestly. Five years ago, after he finished reading the books in the old library, he found his master and hoped to enter the library cave to browse all the books.

I went there with the mentality of giving it a try, but I didn't expect the master to agree to it, on the condition that Li Ming would be responsible for eating and drinking every day.

Naturally, Li Ming readily agreed, and with a little effort, he got the qualification to read the books in the academy. Unless he was kicked in the head by a donkey, he would have the idea of ​​refusing.In this regard, the food in the back mountain of the academy has improved a lot.

Li Ming looked at his wife, who was enjoying the delicacies, but there was a trace of reluctance to get along with him day and night.

"you are leaving?"

The master gave a pause to the hand holding the vegetables, and then picked up the meat slices and put them into his mouth as if nothing had happened.No matter who he is, how could he fail to see that Li Ming intended to leave.

Li Ming couldn't help being silent for a moment, nodded slightly, filled the wine glass and gave it away respectfully, saying:
"Thank you, Master, for taking care of me all these years. I am not a member of the academy. I have stayed here long enough, and it is time to leave."

Hearing this, the Master's eyes narrowed, the corners of his mouth slightly raised, and he put down the chopsticks in his hands, but he didn't take the wine glass from Li Ming's hands.

Seeing this, Li Ming was slightly taken aback, and either put away the wine glass in his hand or not, but looked at Mrs. Li Ming who was frozen in place, but smiled, and said slowly:
"Who said you are not from my academy, would you like to worship me as a teacher?"

In fact, the master has long wanted to accept Li Ming as a disciple. Although Li Ming's aptitude can be said to be ignorant, his understanding is amazing to the master.
It is well known that there are seventeen orifices in the human body under the Haotian world, the snow-capped mountains and the sea of ​​qi. Practitioners are the seventeen qi orifices that melt their thoughts into the snow-capped mountains in front of their chests and the sea of ​​qi behind their waists.
Only those who can connect the seventeen orifices to the thirteen orifices can sense the vitality of the world and let the vitality run in the body.If you can get through the ten orifices, on the verge of awakening, with the guidance of a famous teacher, you can also get through the other few orifices and improve your strength.

What amazes the master is that Li Ming, who has no senses in his body, can actually condense the heavenly gate that connects the vitality of the world through his unique martial arts, achieving an effect similar to the seventeen orifices of the snow-capped mountains and seas. Amazing.

None of the people he had met in the past thousand years could match Li Ming in terms of understanding, and even his junior brother, although his cultivation aptitude was unparalleled, could not surpass Li Ming in this respect.

That's why the master just allowed Li Ming to freely enter and exit the book cave through the mere food trade, and read all the books.But he has a heart of love for talent.

However, when faced with the request of the No.1 master in the world, Li Ming just refused with a smile.

If people from the outside world knew about it, they would call Haotian unfair, and how many people's dreams were turned down by Li Ming lightly.

The master didn't get angry when he saw this, he just took the wine glass from Li Ming's hand and wanted to drink it down.

However, Li Ming stretched out his hand to block it, and said, "I'm not inferior to Ke Haoran. I don't know if Master would mind having one more junior brother?"

Hearing that Master raised his brows, everyone in the academy knew that Master Uncle Ke Haoran drew his sword and was punished by heaven, which became Master's regret for so many years, although Master later went to Taoshan to cut off all the peach blossoms, hurting countless strong Taoist sects They even expelled Zhishou Guanguan to the South China Sea.Still can't erase that regret.

Now that Li Ming made such a request, it was obviously unexpected by the master, but looking at Li Ming's serious face, he was obviously not joking, and no one dared to make fun of Ke Haoran. .

The master changed from being elegant and easy-going, and looked at Li Ming seriously, as if examining Li Ming.Li Ming didn't let go of his master's hand, and his expression didn't change at all.For a while, the kitchen was silent.

After a long time, the master smiled casually, raised his eyebrows, and said casually: "Junior brother, why don't you have a drink?"

"Senior brother invites me, and my junior brother will naturally accompany me, but the wine glass is really not happy enough. Why don't you change it to this?"

After finishing speaking, Li Ming raised the wine jar to respect his master, and when he saw this, the master also smiled, threw the wine glass in his hand, and took a picture of the altar of fine wine

"Dry!"

"Dry!"

"Peng"

There was a clear and clear sound of the wine jars colliding, and the two looked at each other, then looked up to the sky and drank, the wine turned into a crystal clear water line and poured into their mouths.

The two drank the two jars of centuries-old wine in one gulp, threw away the wine jars casually, and smiled at each other, apparently in a good mood.

Jun Mo, who happened to be passing by, heard the hearty laughter inside, and couldn't help but be taken aback by his stern and serious face. Since his junior uncle was punished by heaven and died, he hasn't seen his master laugh so happily for a long time.
