The straw sandal boy is very formal, nervous and nervous.

He was dressed in coarse cloth and a pair of straw sandals, but his whole body was quite clean and tidy, his skin was a little dark, and his eyes were bright and vivid.

"Sit down. It's fate for you and me to meet. Can you tell me about your previous life?"

Lintian smiled and spoke in a warm and peaceful voice, which made the straw sandal boy calm, like a spring breeze, and took his seat according to his words.

After thinking about it, he said his past clearly and methodically.

The young man, whose name is Su Bai, is thirteen years old. He comes from a remote village in xiheng. His family cultivates for a living from generation to generation.

Some time ago, the village was attacked by a wave of animals, and Su Bai's parents were also killed, killing the mouth of the fierce beast

After knowing this, Lintian felt a sigh of emotion in his eyes.

Su Bai.

The name reminds him of Yun Qingbai again.

The straw sandal boy named Su Bai was very nervous at the moment. He vaguely understood it and looked forward to it in his eyes.

Lintian stared at the young man and said, "in those days, there was a man who was very similar to me, but he was always forced when he set foot on the road of cultivation, so his life was full of tragedy."

Su Bai was stunned and couldn't help saying, "senior, I'm different from him."

Lintian said, "why is it different?"

Su Bai took a deep breath and said seriously, "I... if I can follow my predecessors, I will only be happy and happy, and others can't force me to do anything."

Lintian smiled. He was a very clever boy.

"Why do you practice Taoism?"

Lintian said again, "I'll only give you three chances. If the answer is satisfactory, I'll give you a chance to worship."

As soon as Su Bai's spirit was aroused, his whole body trembled with joy and excitement.

But soon, he took several deep breaths, tried to calm himself down, and didn't speak in a hurry.

He knew that this was a test for Lintian!

That's a good answer. From then on, you can leap over the dragon's gate and go straight up.

If you don't answer well, you... After all, you are still a useless waste who can only watch your parents suffer in front of the fierce beast, but has a cavity of anger and anger, but can't do anything!

"Why practice Taoism?" Su Bai began to think, his eyes were in a trance, and he thought of a lot of things.

The hard work and illness of their parents still haunt them.

I think of those monks who call the wind and rain, move mountains and fill the sea, just like the omnipotent ability of heaven.

I also thought of the animal tide that brought me great pain, and the scenes ridiculed by Xue Yong on the Bank of the star chess sea.

Xue Yong once said: "there is no talent, and it is also versatile to work hard all the time. In this world, there is never a lack of straw bags with higher ambition than heaven. Everyone thinks that diligence can make up for weakness and heaven rewards diligence, but in the end, it is still devoid of people. It is far from being compared with other practitioners. This is the road. It has always been so cruel. It is absolutely wishful thinking for those with stupid qualifications to change their lives against the sky."

Suddenly, a strong impulse surged into the heart of the straw sandal boy, trying to express his vision of monasticism.

But when he touched Lintian's calm and deep eyes, the straw sandal boy suddenly woke up and suppressed the strong impulse.

There are hatred, anger, sadness and sadness in the past, but they have all happened and can't be changed.

In that case, if you want to practice Taoism in the future, you can't just be trapped in the past!

Thinking of this, Su Bai was in a cold sweat. He knew that if he impulsively said the answer just now, senior Lintian would be very disappointed.

Then, the straw sandal boy fell into meditation again.

The more he thought about it, the more disordered his thoughts became. He was in a trance and didn't know the passage of time.

Lintian didn't disturb him, but quietly got up and left.

....

"Bug, why do you think of coming to see me?"

Lintian found Xia Xiaochong on the Bank of a cliff. This innocent girl, as pure as glass, seemed to grow up a little, but still maintained the appearance of that year.

But compared with that year, the girl's appearance is less green and more beautiful.

"Ah? I remembered that I hadn't seen brother Lintian for a long time, so I came."

Xia Xiaochong looked confused and thought that the problem was too strange.

Lintian was stunned and couldn't help laughing. Yes, he came as soon as he wanted. Didn't he come for some purpose?

This is Xia Xiaochong. When he is interested, he does what he wants and has no time for his mind. On the contrary, he is close to the road and conforms to his original heart.

"If I don't come, will brother Lintian come to me?" Xia Xiaochong asked.

Lintian was speechless for a moment. Of course he could say so, but he didn't want to be perfunctory in the face of Xia Xiaochong, a sincere and kind girl.

After thinking about it, he sighed: "yes, but not now. I'm not sure when, probably..."

Xia Xiaochong has said happily: "just meet!"

Lintian was ashamed.

Even, he envied the clean and beautiful girl, just like sunflowers and trees, giving people a beautiful breath.

I envy him because he can't.

He still has many things to do. Although a Taoist heart is tough and unparalleled, it has gone through hardships and is no longer simple.

Lintian Wen said, "since you're here, have fun here. When will you be homesick, I'll take you back."

Xia Xiaochong blinked, and his clear eyes were full of smiles: "brother Lintian, you'd better treat me well. As long as you don't dislike me, I'll always treat you well in the future."

Lintian laughed.

Chatting with Xia Xiaochong made him feel very relaxed and happy.

....

For three days, the straw sandal boy was thinking about Lintian's question.

His brows were frowned, his face was pale, and he looked exhausted.

"Elder brother, this question is too difficult. This little guy hasn't started to practice yet. How can he say 'knock on the heart and ask'?"

Secretly, ARU, who has been paying attention to the movement of Su Bai, couldn't help saying.

Lintian's eyes were hard to see, and said, "once a poor child meets an opportunity to change his fate, even if it is just a wisp of ethereal hope, he will use all his strength to hold it in his hand, even paranoid, and will not hesitate to pay his life for it."

"If we look at those children with rich families, it will not be so, because they don't have to worry about their future practice. Someone has arranged everything for them."

"This is the difference of birth. How many of the poor people in the world can finally stand out?"

"Even if they can stand out, there is still a big difference between them in terms of future and inside information compared with those who come from famous families."

After a pause, Lintian continued: "just like this young man, if he wasn't born in poverty, why do he have to work so hard for a chance to practice Taoism? Similarly, since he wants to change his fate, he has to make far more extraordinary efforts from the first step of seeking Taoism, otherwise he is doomed to die in the future."

Aru scratched his head and said, "brother, with your strength now, you can casually give this boy some advice, and you won't make a success in the future?"

Lintian smiled: "if so, I'd rather not accept disciples. Since I want to accept disciples, I should be responsible for my future path. I don't want my disciples to live on my reputation in the future."

Aru looked strange and said, "but it's too difficult to be your disciple without being influenced by your reputation. If this boy doesn't make thousands of times of efforts, he may live in your shadow all his life."

Lintian said, "that's why I asked him that question. Only when I understand and understand it, his path will not be affected by me in the future."

"It seems that elder brother, you have made up your mind to take this young man as an apprentice?"

Aru was surprised.

Lintian said, "at first, I wanted to see if he would become the second yunqingbai, but now, I just want him to be himself, a unique Su Bai."

Speaking of this, Lintian smiled and said, "of course, now he has passed my test."

"Passed?"

Aru was stunned.

....

"Elder, do you mean I'm... Qualified?"

Su Bai was awakened by Lintian, but he didn't come up with a perfect answer from beginning to end.

But Lintian told him that it was OK!

It made him look confused.

Lintian smiled and explained, "if you tell me any answer, I won't be satisfied, because it's just your current idea. When you embark on the road, your power will change."

After a pause, he continued, "I just hope that if you encounter confusion, confusion, or even doom in your future practice, ask why you practiced Taoism at the beginning, and then you will have the answer in your heart."

Su Bai's head exploded, as if he understood at once, but when he thought carefully, he still didn't know.

Lintian patted the boy's thin shoulder and said in a warm voice, "this problem is one of the reasons why you seek the way. One day, you will understand it when you fully understand it."

Su Bai was stunned, but he still realized that he had been recognized by Lintian. He could understand the problems he couldn't understand in the future!

"Now, you have only passed my test, but whether you will accept you as an apprentice depends on yourself."

Lintian looked solemn and spoke calmly.

Su Baifu reached his heart and knelt down to kowtow. He said piously and firmly, "please give me your advice."

Lintian said, "in the next period of time, I will teach you the most basic cultivation tips and give you secret cultivation."

"But before you get my approval, you can't pretend to be my disciple, which means that your future behavior has nothing to do with me, Lintian."

"If I find you acting under my banner, I will deprive you of your Tao and teach you not to turn over forever, do you understand?"

These words, like the sound of Tao, knocked on Su Bai's heart, grand and dignified.

Su Bai was silent for a long time, and finally said firmly, "I understand!"

On this day, Lintian, who already had the highest holy land cultivation, accepted Su Bai, a straw sandal boy from a poor background, as a "registered disciple"!

Before Su Bai was officially admitted by Lintian, it was doomed that no one in the world would know except a few people.
