The Secret Art of Refining the Dead: The Walking Corpse File

Chapter 636 Apprenticeship

After the old temple master finished speaking, he seemed very calm, but for a moment he made me anxious, what should I do?Do I really want to take the path of refining corpses?Just thinking about dealing with corpses every day in the future makes me feel that my whole life is gloomy.

Everyone has some things that are more or less never overcome, and I think corpse refining is probably one of them for me.

I couldn't help but put on a bitter face and said: "Aren't you kidding me, old man? Is there any other way? Or... you find someone else to pass on your mantle?"

The old Guanzhu opened his eyes and said with a smile: "The power of the corpse king is truly exerted, and its power is infinite. If it is passed on to unreliable people, it will cause endless troubles."

I smiled wryly and said, "So you think I'm reliable? We haven't spoken a few words yet, how do you know I'm reliable?"

The old Guanzhu said: "It's actually not difficult to see a person clearly, sometimes it takes too much time to say a few words, besides, I trust you, I trust him."

I wiped my face, sat down again, and began to rethink this matter. The old temple master was not joking with me. It seems that there is really only one way to save Tan Ren.

After thinking about it, I gritted my teeth and said, "How should I learn this corpse refining technique? You won't let me harm people?"

He shook his head slightly, and said lightly: "The patriarch passed down the lineage of refining corpses to save and help others, but it was used by unworthy descendants to harm others. Whether it is good or evil, whether you follow the right way or the evil way, it's all up to you Myself; what will I force you to do? How can you blame the knife for killing people?"

When he said this, I felt a little relieved, and then asked, "Is it very difficult to learn this? Do you have to dissect corpses every day?"

The old temple master laughed, and said: "I will teach you slowly after some time. Naturally, the method handed down by the patriarch cannot be learned casually."

After a pause, he seemed to have thought of something, and said: "Xuanye is extremely talented, and he has been passed down by me. Even so, he can't really control the corpse king and display the real power of the corpse king."

I couldn't help but my heart moved. In this way, Tan Ren's real strength is actually more than what I have seen before.But even so, that strength is quite powerful for me.

If this is the case, how could Tan Ren bring Zhou Xuanye back to the teacher's school and join hands with each other, how could Zhou Xuanye be safe and sound, but Master Ren was seriously injured?
Reminiscent of what the old temple master said before, a flash of inspiration flashed in my mind, and I understood everything immediately.

The reason why the house cleaning failed this time, it seems that the problem is not with Tan Ren, but probably with the old temple master.

In the Temple of the Three Sons, capable people come forth in large numbers, and with the corpse king Tan Ren and the temple master sitting in command, if they really set their minds to deal with Zhou Xuanye, there is no possibility of failure.

Unless the old temple master didn't make up his mind, or there were some other accidents that I don't know about.

Of course, all of this is out of my consideration right now. What I should really care about right now is learning the art of refining corpses.

"Then do you think I can unleash the power of the corpse king?"

He looked at me, although his face was wrinkled and extremely old, but his eyes were very clear: "Did you learn corpse refining for strength?"

No, of course not, I am here to save people.So I shook my head.

"Since it's not for power, it doesn't matter whether you can finally use the power of the corpse king, or how talented you are, and where you can go in the end. This is why I choose you."

At this moment, I suddenly realized why when other people described the relationship between Tan Ren and him, they always referred to him as the first disciple and the lover. Same as son.

He refined Tan Ren to be the corpse king, and he didn't care about the power of the corpse king, he just wanted to use another way to keep this disciple.Now, his life is not long, even if he wants to entrust Tan Ren to other people, he doesn't want Tan Ren to be someone's tool, so he chose me as his successor.

I know what a talent I am, an average guy, never a particularly bright type, but even so, he would rather pass on the mantle to me than anyone else.

I couldn't help sighing with emotion.

Tan Ren, Tan Ren, you are living in this world, and you have a master who loves you so much like a biological father, so it is not in vain.

If it's me...hey, I don't care if I don't want to.

The old temple master seemed to know what I was thinking, and said slowly: "Although I am a person from outside the world, I can see through the world of mortals, but people are people after all. I have not obtained the Tao, nor have I become a fairy. I am a mortal, and the seven emotions and six desires are inevitable. I remember that at the beginning, my third son thought that there were few disciples. At that time, I only accepted him as an apprentice. Later, most of these disciples were taught by him. I am not competent as a master. The young Taoist back then, now the white-haired and chicken-skinned boy, the yellow-mouthed child at the time, is now in the path of the corpse. I took an apprentice so seriously, but I failed to protect him, and it was a lifetime of pain."

I could hear that although the words of the old temple master were simple, the regret in them was obvious, and I couldn't help but think of the old question: what happened in the corpse cave?Now, since I have decided to worship him as my teacher and enter the Three Sons' View, I am considered one of my own. It shouldn't be an exaggeration to tell me the reason?
Just when I was about to ask, the old temple master had already changed the subject: "Have you made a decision yet?"

I had no choice but to answer him: "You're right, how can you blame a knife for killing people? Although I have learned the art of refining corpses, it's all in my heart to use it to harm people or to help others. Corpse refining is a broad and profound art, I wish I worship you as my teacher."

"Okay!" He stroked his beard and said yes, with a look of joy on his face, and said, "Go down and let your brothers outside come in, I have something to tell them." After finishing speaking, he waved his hand to signal me Leaving, it was too hard for me to ask any more questions, so I had to back out.

When I got outside the shop hall, I saw Huang Lian and others waiting in the distance, and they were discussing something with each other. As soon as I leaned over, they all surrounded me.However, they are unreliable and unreliable. People in the Taoist sect have no children, and they attach great importance to the inheritance of master and apprentice, so they also respect the teacher and the way. I have been delayed for so long, they are obviously curious, but they did not ask any questions. Bai He said: "Let's go down the mountain and have lunch."

I shook my head and said: "I can't leave for the time being, by the way, the temple master asked you all to go in, and said that I have something to tell you."

As soon as Huang Lian and the others heard this, they immediately entered the main hall, so I sat on the stone and waited, picked a grass and put it in my mouth, my mind is still dazed until now.

I never dreamed that when I came here by myself, I would become a fellow student with Tan Ren and the others.

More than three years ago, I was born in an orphanage, with nothing to do, no prospects, and Su Tiangu who lived every day. He is the closed disciple of the Sanziguan Corpse Refining lineage.

The circumstances of life change rapidly.

From the moment I stepped into the gate of Tan Xuan's office, everything changed.

Am I better than I was three years ago, or worse than I was three years ago?

To be honest, I don't know myself.

From the point of view of general values, I now have a wide network of contacts, some wealth, and ordinary people really dare not mess with me. I am only 27 this year. I am young and I am doing well. One is in the sky and the other is on the ground.

But from my own heart, I don't feel very happy.

Maybe people are like this, with this, thinking about that, having material satisfaction, thinking about spiritual enrichment.

Not long after, Huang Lian and the others came out with happy expressions on their faces. I was still wandering in the sky and didn't realize it. Fatty Huang gave me a bear hug and said, "Little brother!" Well, I know the old temple master told them to go in What is it for, probably to tell them that they are going to accept closed disciples.

I pushed Fatty Huang away and said, "I want Kun Dao's brother to hug me more, can you go away."

Fatty Huang laughed loudly, and said: "It's okay, the Dao and Kun Dao are the same, we are following the Quanzhen Dao, what else do you want to do?" His words reminded me, and I was stunned. Forgot this?Quanzhen Taoism is for singles!
fuck!

fuck!

no!I regret it!
Just when I was about to rush back to the main hall to tell the old temple master that he had changed his mind, I calmed down again: Funny, people are allowed to become monks, but are they not allowed to become vulgar?That old temple master doesn't seem to live long, so let's do it!When he dies, I will return to vulgarity!
Tan Guimao, Tan Guimao, you know my loyal brother, you are smoking from the ancestral grave.

In my heart, I silently praised my love and righteousness.
