Doomsday Rise - #1951 - Chapter 1947: It still needs money
The old man with a high crown is very tall. With the high crown, he is half a head taller than Liu Wei’an. His beard is trimmed neatly. He has an air of immortality and a very elegant temperament. However, when he speaks, he has a philistine air. Revealed.
“Are the two of you here to learn from a teacher?”
“Yes!” Liu Wei’an and Shen Yiyun looked at each other.
“Both of them together? Or one of them?” The old man with a high crown smiled like a big bad wolf when he heard the two people’s answers.
“Together!” Liu Wei’an said.
“Ten thousand gold coins per person, twenty thousand gold coins for two people together, tuition.” The old man with a high crown said skillfully.
“Do you want to pay now? I want to visit and see the situation.” Liu Wei’an said.
“Pay the tuition first and then visit. Don’t worry, our Yishan Sect is doing business… We are very sincere in recruiting disciples. They are innocent, don’t worry, don’t worry, it will definitely be worth the money.” The old man Gao Guan spoke sincerely, Liu Wei An felt like he was facing a salesman. He glanced at Shen Yiyun, “Didn’t you do business with Yishan Sect?” Don’t you know this person?
Shen Yiyun shook her head slightly, indicating that this was not the person she was doing business with.
Liu Wei’an saw the old man Gao Guan’s intention, and he would not be allowed to enter the mountain gate unless he paid the fee. He had no choice but to pay 20,000 gold coins. This was not a small sum, but it was nothing to him. Compared to Shen Yiyun As for giving a fool 100,000 gold coins, he felt that his price was fair.
“Wu Yazi, take your junior brothers and junior sisters to get familiar with the mountain gate, and then go to your third junior uncle to report.” After receiving the money, the old man Gaoguan returned to his Taoist fairy-like appearance, speaking in a leisurely and full manner. majesty.
“Uncle, isn’t it the responsibility of the fifth uncle to report?” Following the old man Gao Guan, there was a boy of fifteen or sixteen years old who looked ordinary, but compared with the four crooked melons and jujubes who were cleaning the house. , suddenly showed a clear face, but the circles under his eyes were black and blue, like a giant panda. I don’t know if he stayed up late and read too many books that are not suitable for children.
“The big red-tailed rooster raised by your fifth uncle is missing. He went down the mountain to look for it. He has not been on the mountain for the past few days.” After finishing speaking, the old man Gaoguan ignored the others and left.
The big cock is gone and you don’t care about work anymore? Liu Wei’an felt his eyebrows twitching. Are all the people of the Yishan Sect so willful?
“Junior brother and junior sister, please come with me. Although you are older than me, I started earlier than you, so I can call you junior brother and junior sister. You have to call me senior brother. This is the rule of our Yishan Sect. You must not You think I’m taking advantage of you.” Wu Yazi had been acting very silent and dull, but when he saw the old man leaving, his whole body suddenly came to life, and his eyes lit up like a child seeing candy.
“Hello, Senior Brother Wuyazi, where should we go first?” Liu Wei’an didn’t care about this. He still understood the principle of first come, first served.
“Let’s go to a place to live first.” Wu Yazi thought for a while and replied, “The housing on the mountain is relatively simple. I don’t know if there are separate rooms now. If not, you will have to share a room with other brothers. Some Senior brother, my feet smell bad. When I take off my shoes at night, the smell is so bad that I can spit out the food I ate the night before. I hope you have good luck. Are you brother and sister or a couple?”
“Housing doesn’t matter. If we don’t have a separate room, can we build it ourselves?” Liu Wei’an asked.
“This… the master didn’t seem to say it’s not possible, that means it’s possible. Yes, why didn’t I think that you can build your own house? You guys are so smart. I want to build a room by myself so that I don’t have to live in the same room with Senior Brother Song. “Yeah, Senior Brother Song is always throwing paper balls around and not sweeping the floor. It’s annoying.” Wu Yazi was a chatterbox. However, this is exactly what Liu Wei’an meant. He is a talkative person.
Looking at the dormitory, it turned out that there was no separate room. Liu Wei’an told Wu Yazi that it was okay to go to other places first, and then the second place Wu Yazi took the two of them to was the cafeteria. The cafeteria was very simple. Liu Wei’an went into the kitchen to take a look and found that the ingredients were all vegetarian, including unknown wild vegetables, potatoes, pumpkins, and some unknown fruits.
“Don’t you eat meat?” Liu Wei’an asked Wu Yazi, who loved all kinds of meat.
“There is meat on the first and fifteenth day of every month, and on other days, it is vegetarian.” Wu Yazi replied.
“Is there anything special about it?” Liu Wei’an felt that the living habits on the mountain were somewhat similar to Taoism.
“No, just poor.” Wu Yazi replied.
“You’re still poor with a tuition fee of 10,000 gold coins for each person?” Liu Wei’an was shocked. 10,000 gold coins is enough for half a month’s food expenses for 10,000 people. The Yishan sect cannot have more than 500 people even if it is full, right?
“I don’t know. Anyway, my uncles and uncles complain about poverty every day. They have been talking about the road up the mountain for several years, but they don’t have the money to repair it.” Wu Yazi suddenly looked around carefully and said nervously: ” I’ll tell you a secret, don’t be angry.”
“What secret?” Liu Wei’an lowered his voice involuntarily.
“Uncles accept apprentices based on the fees they charge. Some charge one hundred and eighty thousand gold coins, while others only charge three to five gold coins. The tuition fee for each brother is different,” Wu Yazi said.
“Didn’t we lose money?” The corner of Liu Wei’an’s mouth twitched. Shen Yiyun was here to make soy sauce. He was the one who really learned the art. In other words, he paid 20,000 gold coins alone. He didn’t really care about it. It was twenty thousand gold coins, and he was unhappy that he had been deceived.
“Don’t think like this. Suffering is a blessing. Uncle Master once said that we have been asking for things from nature since we were born. This is not in line with the laws of heaven, so we have to give something from time to time.” Wu Yazi said.
Liu Wei’an couldn’t argue with a fifteen or sixteen-year-old kid, so he could only shake his head and smile bitterly.
The next place we went to was the purpose of Liu Wei’an going up the mountain, the classroom, which Wuyazi called the classroom. It was the place where the masters and uncles taught scriptures and taught Taoism.
Liu Wei’an stared at the students sitting cross-legged on the ground under several greenhouses from a distance. The white-bearded guy, who didn’t know whether it was his junior or senior uncle, was sitting on a big stone and explaining something.
“This is class?”
A few pillars serve as support points, plus a roof, which is good for sun protection. If it is to block the rain, Liu Wei’an is probably very busy. The straw on it is thick in some places and thin in others. He doubts whether it will leak out. It is ventilated on all sides. , the air is quite good, the uneven ground is tolerated, and there is a raised ant nest behind. What is the difference between this and Mount Tai’s lecture? Is the tuition fee of 10,000 gold coins spent on this place?
The old man with the white beard was speaking very seriously, but the disciples below were looking around. However, there were several people dressed as handsome young men who sat up straight and listened very seriously. Liu Wei’an glanced at them, and they immediately sensed it. They turned to look at Liu Wei’an. They probably knew what they were doing. They nodded slightly and continued to listen carefully to the lecture.
Wu Yazi took Liu Wei’an and Shen Yiyun over several mountains. There were fourteen such classrooms. There was a master or uncle living on each mountain, and the number of disciples he led varied, from 1 to 50. There are all available, the courses include open classes and self-study, everything depends on the arrangement of the master or uncle.
Finally, Wu Yazi took the two of them to the center and highest mountain peak, pointing at an attic that was not majestic and even looked a little broken.
“That’s where the headmaster lives, and it’s also where the master’s classics are stored. Everyone calls it the Sutra Pavilion. As a disciple, you have the opportunity to go in and read there once a month for 8 hours. In addition, , if you still want to go in, you have to pay, 1,000 gold coins per hour, and the upper limit is 100 hours.” Wu Yazi said.
“What should I do if I don’t have money and want to go in?” Liu Wei’an asked.
“You can contribute to the sect. If your contribution reaches a certain level, you can enter.” Wu Yazi said.
“What contribution?” Shen Yiyun was curious.
“Donate money.” Wu Yazi replied.
“…” Liu Wei’an said.
“…” Shen Yiyun said.
Has the Yishan Sect fallen into the eyes of money? Why does everything require money? In this business, profiteers have to call you “senior” when they come.
“The master will come out to give lectures every six months. That is the moment that all the disciples are most looking forward to, because they can learn a lot of new things. The master is very powerful.” Wu Yazi’s eyes had little stars.
“What if you have a problem and want to ask the master for advice? Is there any way?” Liu Wei’an asked.
“That won’t work. The headmaster spends most of his time in seclusion, and even the masters and uncles can’t see him.” Wu Yazi said.
The Yishan Sect seems to be very big, but the scope is large. In fact, the buildings and facilities are very few. It is estimated that even if a thief comes, he will not know what to do. He looked at it for a long time, but did not see much. Wu Yazi took the two They were brought to the mountain where the third uncle was. The third uncle had a rest today and was basking in the sun on a big rock. He was very enthusiastic when he saw the new disciple. UU reading www. uukanshu.net
“Which one are you going to take as your teacher? Have you made up your mind?”
There are 15 masters and masters in the Yishan Sect together with the master. The master can choose his disciples, and the disciples can also choose their masters. However, the wishes of the disciples are mainly based on the wishes of the disciples.
These uncles and uncles are good at different things and have very different personalities. Therefore, you must be careful when choosing a master.
“Disciples only want to listen to open classes here.” Liu Wei’an has asked Wu Yazi before. It is not necessary to become a disciple. Disciples without a master can also attend classes. However, they can only attend public classes, that is, sitting in the shed. In that form, if there is someone who wants to ask a master in private who is not his disciple, the master may not be willing to answer.
“Young people have their own personalities. Don’t worry. If you change your mind, you can come to me at any time.” The third uncle was not annoyed. He smiled and told the two of them some rules and precautions of the Yishan Sect. , and then asked Wu Yazi to lead the two of them to eat. After this wandering, the whole morning had passed, and it was time to eat.
“The third junior uncle is very easy-going. He always smiles when he talks to everyone. Everyone likes him. You will know in the future that the third junior uncle likes to drink tea. If you have anything to do with him in the future, just give him tea.” Wu Ya Zi is very enthusiastic. Liu Wei’an expressed his gratitude, and the three of them came to the canteen together and found that there were very few people eating, only fifty or sixty people.
“The food here is not delicious. The rich people have all opened small kitchens. The people who come here to eat are the brothers from relatively poor families.” Wu Yazi explained.
“Can I turn on the small stove?” Liu Wei’an’s eyes lit up.
“Okay, there is a canteen over there, opened by Uncle Eleven. It tastes good, but it’s expensive.” Wu Yazi said.
“Come on, let’s go together. I’ll treat you.” Liu Wei’an said immediately.
