Mingyue of the Great Song Dynasty http://www./0_1/  The latest work of Xiangnan Xiaoxiaosheng!

The bell for dinner rang. Qiu Ming walked out of the door and knocked on the door of Wang Shouzhong next door next door: "Shouzhong, come out for dinner." No one is a formal disciple, and Qiu Ming also has an excuse not to call him senior brother.

Almost a minute later, Wang Shouzhong walked out yawning: "Brother Xiaoming, have you had dinner so soon?"

The two walked towards the dining hall together and found two long tables inside. One table was sitting with the old Taoist, the little Taoist boy and a few people wearing long Taoist robes, and the other table, although they were also wearing Taoist priests' hair buns, they were wearing short Taoist uniforms.

Wang Shouzhong wanted to sit at the old Taoist table, but Qiu Ming pulled it. After looking carefully, he realized that the table was the old Taoist and his personal disciples, and the short shirts were the secret disciples who were still in the test period.

Everyone saw that Wang Shouzhong was not surprised, but when facing Qiu Ming, they all stared at him because Qiu Ming was not wearing a hat and showed his head that only grew short hair.

"Let's have a meal." After the old Taoist said, he used his chopsticks first, and the others started to eat.

The dishes on the table are very rich, with meat and vegetables, with a large pot of vegetables, and a large pot of steamed buns. It seems that Laoshan school cannot ban meat dishes, which makes Qiu Ming very satisfied. It is much better than living in a small temple where Jiezi is.

Qiu Ming thought that Guan Zhaitang's senior brother did a lot? Including him and Wang Shouzhong, there were only thirteen disciples, so this must be left.

But when the chopsticks moved, he realized that there were not many dishes at all, and the other disciples could eat more than the other. Qiu Ming suspected that each of these disciples was just a quarrel-free food!

After dinner, the Taoist priest I met while fetching water called Qiu Ming and Wang Shouzhong to follow him, and gave them two sets of short shirts, Taoist uniforms, shoes, socks, towels and other supplies. After looking at Qiu Ming's head with only stubble hair, he gave Qiu Ming an extra hat.

"You hold these two axes. After breakfast tomorrow, go to the back mountain to chop firewood with other unknown disciples. Don't walk around in the temple, especially don't peek at other senior brothers in their practice! The senior brothers should maintain harmony and respect the senior brothers..."

After talking about a bunch of rules, Qiu Ming found that there were not many restrictions. Don’t go around, work honestly, don’t cause trouble, don’t steal the stolen masters. This is probably what it means.

When he returned to the dormitory, Wang Shouzhong couldn't help but ask Qiu Ming: "Brother Xiaoming, why did you say that Master arranged for us to chop wood? We are here to learn immortal arts, so at most you can just sweep the yard, right?"

"Mencius said: When God is about to give a great responsibility to this person, he must first suffer his mind and mind, and his muscles and bones. Didn't the master say that he is afraid that we will not endure hardship, and this is a test."

"Yes, yes, yes, Master is definitely afraid that our minds will not be firm enough. But I will definitely be able to persevere, what about you?"

Qiu Ming glanced at Wang Shouzhong and said this big thing after you chopped firewood for a few days.

"Brother Xiaoming, you are here to learn immortal arts. Have your wife and children been settled?" Wang Shouzhong asked again.

Wife and children? The ancients got married early, but Wang Shouzhong meant that he already had a wife and children?

"I'm not married."

"A real man starts a family and starts a business, and then starts a family. So are you hiding a beautiful woman in a golden house, or are you used to going to some fireworks alleys?"

In ancient times, only the wife was considered a wife. Did anyone marry a wife? But if you had a concubine or a girl with a wife first, it was normal for a wealthy family, and they were considered an unmarried young man!

Qiu Ming frowned: "Shouzhong, let's take a break early when you go back, and you will have to go to the back mountain to chop wood tomorrow."

Wang Shouzhong's tone is still so annoying. Didn't scholars start with poetry, songs, music, chess, calligraphy and painting in ancient times? Why does Wang Shouzhong reveal his debauchery everywhere?

Well, mainly because Qiu Ming cannot answer this topic at all because he has never been to that kind of place. If he talks about theoretical moves, Qiu Ming can communicate with him and discuss them. He has seen many moves, although they are all in movies from the island primary school.

Seeing that Qiu Ming had no chat, Wang Shouzhong stopped talking. When he returned to the East Courtyard, he ran to other people's dormitory again. He didn't know whether to inquire about the news or exchange the experience of the fireworks alley with others.

Qiu Ming practiced the family-born moves, and then fell asleep after using the Heart Sutra to recover from fatigue.

When he woke up the next morning, everyone was washing up, Wang Shouzhong was still sleeping. When Qiu Ming finished washing up and called him to get up, he yawned out: "Why are you doing so early? The dew on the mountain has not dried yet."

During breakfast, Wang Shouzhong ate very little, Qiu Ming and others were very full, and there was no lunch in Taoist temple.

Carrying an axe, he went to the back mountain with other unknown disciples. Along the way, Wang Shouzhong kept saying it, as if he felt it was very fresh. His words were full of bold words and ambitions, saying that after he learned the magic of immortality, he would definitely surprise his family and friends.

The implication is that after learning the magic of immortality, I go home to show off.

"Okay, let's chop wood here and carry the chopped wood back in the afternoon." After an older senior brother finished explaining to Qiu Ming and the others, he took the axe to chop wood.

Qiu Ming found a tree and swung his axe to chop. At this time, Qiu Ming realized how important it was to chop firewood in the previous side mission rewarded in the previous world. He just glanced at the tree and knew how to cut the axe, how to cut the fastest and most labor-saving.

After easily knocking down three trees, Qiu Ming estimated that it was less than five minutes. He had never thought that cutting trees would be so easy before. The senior brothers before all looked at Qiu Ming in surprise. Did this short-haired boy cut trees before?

They only knew that Qiu Ming came from the northern border, and even had his hair cut, it must have been stained with some barbarian customs. If they knew that Qiu Ming had short hair because he had been a monk before, they would not know what he would be surprised. This is a Taoist temple.

Wang Shouzhong was still cutting down the first tree. He cut the axe for a minute and then rested for a while. It was almost ten minutes. Before the trunk of a tree had been cut to one-third, many sweat had already oozed out of his head.

Seeing that the other senior brothers who came first were not idle at all, they were all bowing their heads and cutting trees. Some were not much faster than Wang Shouzhong, but they did not stand up and rest like Wang Shouzhong, but instead chopped them firmly.

The senior brother who just told Qiu Ming to go back to cut the trees was the most effort. Qiu Ming watched the senior brother knock down a tree with a diameter thicker than his thigh in less than a minute, which seemed to be effortless.

Others may be cutting wood for some tree branches. They are like lumberjacks, cutting trees directly, and their efficiency is almost as good as those with saws.

What made Qiu Ming strange was that at the speed of these people cutting trees, the forest in the back mountain should have been cut off long ago. Why is this forest still so densely packed, and he can't see a few stumps?
