Liu Heng and Feng Jin were friends. In the past, when they met, they would talk about everything under the sun, or exchange opinions on politics. Now, they had another topic to discuss: Liu Heng's cousin, Feng Jin's good friend, Liu Lanting.
The former had a secret brother complex, while the latter admired Jiang Pengji and treated her as a best friend. They had a lot to talk about.
At first, Han Yu was just listening to them out of boredom. But after a while, he became more interested in the "Lanting" they were talking about.
When Liu Heng heard Feng Jin say that Han Yu was Master Yuanjing's disciple, he couldn't help but be in awe. He looked at Han Yu with even more enthusiasm.
His cousin was going to Langye to study. If he could find out Master Yuanjing's preferences earlier, it might come in handy.
With this in mind, Liu Heng tried to get more information from Feng Jin. Han Yu's lips curled into a smile, and he gave Feng Jin a meaningful look.
Feng Jin smiled bitterly. He guessed that this was probably what Lanting meant by "brother-con."
Liu Heng had good intentions. He would just pretend that he didn't see it.
"I can understand that Yaozhi loves her brother. It's just that Teacher has already taken in his full number of disciples. I'm afraid he won't be taking in any more." Han Yu shook his head regretfully and said, "But Langye Academy still welcomes you. If you go to Langye in the future, you can be my classmate."
This time, Feng Jin, who was watching from the side, was surprised.
"Already full? Master Yuanjing has found the fourth person he has been looking for? "
This time, it was Liu Heng's turn to be confused. Why couldn't he understand what these two were saying?
Feng Jin could not help but sigh when he saw that she was still puzzled. "Yaozhi, there's something you don't know. When Master Yuanjing took back the three cities and returned to Langya County, he performed a divination for himself. He was destined to have four disciples. A few years ago, I heard that you had already accepted three disciples. I thought that with Lanting's talent, he would be the fourth disciple that you're looking for. I didn't expect that you already have one. "
In terms of students, all the students in Langye Academy could be considered as Yuan Jing's students. However, there could only be four real disciples.
"This, this …"
Liu Heng's face was filled with disappointment. Although he belittled his cousin, he was still very proud of him.
How could a student and a personal disciple be the same?
For the former, Master Yuanjing only came out to give lectures occasionally, but for the latter, he taught everything he knew.
"Ai …" Liu Heng sighed, and then said somewhat open-mindedly, "If I get it, it's my fortune. If I don't, it's my fate. However, I heard from Huai Yu that Master Yuanjing was' painstakingly 'looking for his fourth disciple … This is really puzzling … "
He emphasized the word "diligently". With Master Yuanjing's fame and talent, which scholar in the world would not go after him?
Too many students had racked their brains just to meet Master Yuanjing. If they could be accepted as his disciple, it would be a blessing to their ancestors. Would Master Yuanjing still need to search for him? Simply absurd! However, he was not so sure after observing Feng Jin and Han Yu's expressions.
Han Yu said, "I had recommended Huaiyu to Master, but Master said that Huaiyu had another destiny in life and he was not fated to be with him."
Master Yuanjing had a quirk when it came to accepting disciples. Not only did he want the disciple to be smart and have a temperament that suited his taste, but he was also particular about mysterious fate.
Just as Liu Heng thought, after Master Yuanjing became famous, there were countless people who wanted to be his direct disciple.
He could choose any outstanding talent in the world. What kind of student couldn't he find?
Han Yu also wanted to give it a try, but he did not expect that Master Yuanjing would take the initiative to accept a disciple. After entering the sect, he had seen too many people who were praised by Master Yuanjing, but all of them failed at the last stage. They had another destiny and were not fated to be Master Yuanjing's disciple.
To hell with the fate of master and disciple!
If you don't accept disciples, how can there be the fate of master and disciple?
Master Yuanjing only smiled and did not say anything about this resentment. He never explained anything.
The first three disciples were accepted smoothly, but the last one had been hanging around for many years. He thought he could not find him anymore.
Feng Jin was curious. Although Master Yuanjing's criteria for accepting a disciple were a little strange, and the last one was even more inexplicable, he could tell how much he valued this matter. The first three disciples were accepted quickly, but the last one was not easy to accept.
Feng Jin was indeed curious. "I don't know who the fourth disciple is. I remember that Wenbin wrote to me last time that Master Yuanjing was quite troubled about accepting disciples. Now that we met, he told me that the candidate has already been selected. I can't help but be curious. "
Speaking of the fourth disciple, Han Yu was also confused. He had not understood his master's intention.
"I have told Huaiyu about this person before. There are many young talents in Langye Academy, and Master Yuanjing's disciples are among the best. There is only one person who is an exception. " Han Yu frowned slightly. "When I first arrived at Langye County, I thought that person should be Master Yuanjing's disciple. Later, I found out that he was not. Not only was he not, he was not even a student of Langye Academy, but Master Yuanjing specially allowed him to study here."
Feng Jin thought for a while and suddenly remembered, "The person you are talking about is the one with an unknown birth date and a very bad fate …"
Liu Heng was confused.
What unknown birth date and a very bad fate?
Han Yu nodded and said, "That's him."
Feng Jin was surprised. "That person has been studying in Langye Academy for seven or eight years. If Master Yuanjing had accepted him earlier, he would have been his first disciple. Why didn't he accept him for seven or eight years and only accepted him when it was almost time? "
Han Yu also asked his master about this question, and his master smiled meaningfully.
"Timing!" Han Yu said, "Master Yuanjing said that the timing was not right before, but now it is time."
Feng Jin was speechless. Many famous teachers had quirks, and Master Yuanjing was definitely one of them.
Liu Heng had to interrupt and asked, "After listening to you for so long, I still don't know who the lucky person is."
"Wei Ci. After Master Yuanjing accepted him as a disciple, he named him Zixiao," Han Yu answered.
Wei Ci? Wei Zixiao?
He had never heard of him. Liu Heng searched for relevant memories, but there was no trace of this person.
"Then, why did you say that his birth date is unknown and a very bad fate …"
Liu Heng had a bad habit. If he didn't understand, he would want to ask. If he didn't ask clearly, his heart would itch uncomfortably.
Han Yu's expression froze. It seemed that he was having a hard time talking about it.
Liu Heng thought that Han Yu had encountered a problem. His heart skipped a beat, and he quickly said, "I am presumptuous. Please forgive me, Wenbin."
Han Yu shook his head and said softly, "There is no taboo. I am just afraid that others will have unnecessary fear and scruples towards Zixiao if I say it. The people of the world are ignorant and fear ghosts and gods. Just a small date of birth can create so many tricks, it is really a pity for Zixiao. "
If it weren't for Wei Ci's good luck, he might have been strangled to death by his family and thrown into the wilderness when he was born.
Liu Heng heard this and didn't continue to ask.
If he had asked, Han Yu might have told him, but it was not a gentleman's behavior to join in the fun.
