AWB Chapter 473 The Legendary Master
Chapter 473 The Legendary Master
Towards evening, Yiren received a letter from his master, in which his master directly accepted Shen Ruyi as his youngest disciple, ranking fifth.
I didn't intend to admit it, I just wanted to continue pretending I didn't know and just let it pass. Who knew that the things they sent over were so good and so rare?
After eating the things that Yiren and the others had given him, his inner strength actually increased. He had expected that the hexagram would show good luck, but he had not expected it to come true here.
He watched Yiren grow up, so he knows her capabilities very well. Since it's not Yiren who is capable, then it must be the owner of the other letter who is capable.
He wanted to continue to eat the tributes from his disciples, what should he do? After thinking it over, he decided that taking in disciples would be the easiest and most economical way to do it, since he was poor.
So he took the opportunity to accept the offer, fearing that it would be too late to regret it, and that he would lose his apprentice. If he hadn't been afraid that he would be too proactive, he would have come to the capital in person.
Yiren felt relieved after reading the letter. There was another letter from Shen Ruyi beside her. She said that it was unreasonable for her master not to accept such a smart and kind disciple like Ruyi.
Shen Ruyi was also happy after reading the letter from this new master. The letter was full of boasting about how powerful he was in the martial arts world. Shen Ruyi was willing to accept him as her master, which was considered to be the right person. It was really a blessing.
He also told Shen Ruyi to live boldly and without worry, and if anything happened in the underworld, just mention his name. Although he could not do anything else, he could still protect Shen Ruyi's safety.
Finally, he said that after careful consideration, he decided to accept Shen Ruyi as his disciple because she was so filial and sincere. As for the gift for the meeting, he had already started looking for it, and he would send it to her when he was done.
He also kept hinting at how so-and-so's disciple was filial to his master, and how so-and-so's disciple had done this and that. He was just short of saying that although you were my disciple who came in later, you should still show due filial piety to your master.
He also complained that all his other disciples had gone traveling around the world and none of them was around to fulfill their filial duties, leaving him alone to guard the empty mountain. He had poor food and drink and his life was extremely difficult.
Shen Ruyi was so amused by what she saw. He really looked exactly like the person Yiren had described, a little eccentric, unkempt, shameless, and protective old man.
He is a somewhat cute old man, and the way he asks for things is so interesting.
After reading it, he handed the letter back to Yiren, "Take a look."
After reading it, Yiren was also amused. "Although Master wrote a lot for you, there is actually only one main sentence: send more of the delicious food and drinks that Master sent you before, for free. You must be greedy for food."
Shen Ruyi said: "Hmm, he's a very interesting old man. The New Year's goods prepared for Master should be delivered soon in the next few days."
"If there were no accidents on the way, it should have been received today. Fortunately, the quantity we sent this time is large enough. It is enough for Master to eat for a while. His cooking skills are not very good, and he can only cook. Later, when the brothers grew up, the cooking work was taken over by the brothers.
Now that his brothers are gone, his life is naturally not easy. However, fortunately, he is not in the mountains all year round. He walks around everywhere, sometimes looking for old friends to exchange martial arts, sometimes going to some friends' homes to eat and drink, and sometimes choosing to go to a place where no one will disturb him to retreat. "
"Then we should give him more banknotes. Then we can exchange some small-denomination banknotes for him to use for daily expenses."
"I did. When I replied to his letter last time, I left a silver note for 1,000 taels. It's enough to last for a long time. You can't give Master too much money at once. He has no concept of money. He spends as much as you give him. The key is that he spends money inexplicably. Sometimes he lives like a boy who gives away money. Otherwise, with his skills and abilities in the martial arts world, he should have founded a school and made it flourish, instead of being penniless like he is now."
"Okay, we're going to Jiangnan after the New Year anyway, so let's go see him. After that, we can also ask him if he wants to build a sect for us. Anyway, we are not short of money, so we can do whatever we want."
"I guess he might not be willing to found a school because he is particularly afraid of trouble. He just wants to practice Kung Fu well and become the most powerful person in the world. He accepted us in because he saw that he had a connection with us and just went with the flow."
"Okay, we'll talk about the details when we meet in the future."
"to make."
The matter was forgotten and there was no need to write a reply. They would go there directly after the New Year.
They were almost ready, with all kinds of food, clothing and daily necessities prepared, ready to set off in the spring. The crew and boatmen had already been trained.
As for Chen Nan, after returning to his own home, he was not used to everything. He finally became normal and talkative, but after returning to that home, everything went back to the time before liberation.
This kid couldn't help but want to hide himself, and when he saw others, he didn't talk or call people, he just hid. In the whole mansion, he only communicated with the eldest lady, and he didn't communicate with other people at all.
The children in the mansion are not very close to Chen Nan, but it’s not like they dislike Chen Nan that much.
The other ladies in the mansion seem to be pretty nice to Chen Nan at the moment. Regardless of whether their feelings are genuine or fake, at least they seem to be able to look decent on the surface.
It was this child's series of behaviors that made Nanny Li and the two maidservants who went with her feel distressed. The child who was lively and cheerful in their own villa became restless when he came here. It was obvious what kind of life this child had lived in this mansion.
The funniest thing was Chen Nan's grandmother, who was leaning on the bed. When she saw Chen Nan kneeling down to pay his respects to her as a routine, but not complimenting her, worshipping her, or surrounding her like other grandchildren, she felt that she had raised this grandson in vain and had ruined him.
The dissatisfaction and impatience on her face were particularly obvious, and she added: "We said that the child has grown up, why is he still like this? People who don't know would think we did something to him. Really, people from small families are not good enough. Even the children they give birth to are not smart. How petty."
This is what a grandmother would say. This person must be a fool. She doesn't even pretend. Wu Bi Doukou was so angry that she wanted to say something, but Li Ma looked at her and she held back. Then Li Ma smiled and said:
"Madam, this child was indeed a good person when he was in our house. Your eldest lady can testify to this. Those of us who came with us are also very curious and puzzled. What kind of family can make a child of a few years old become irritable and insecure as soon as he arrives in this place, and even want to hide himself.
