　　Ye Qiu was puzzled.
　　”Old thing, you clearly took a fancy to this child, why do you still want me to accept him as my apprentice？”
　　The Long-Browed True Man said, “Didn’t I just say that if he follows me, he is very likely to die before he even grows up.”
　　”Your fortune is overwhelming, and perhaps you can help him resolve the nine death tribulations.”
　　”As long as this kid can survive the death tribulations, in the future he will definitely become your right-hand man.”
　　”Also, he will get sick from time to time, and it’s better for him to be by your side.”
The Long-Browed True Man said up to here, looked at Huzi, and said regretfully, “Such a good seedling, it’s a bargain for you. Little bastard, you have to give me some benefits.”
　　Ye Qiu readily agreed： “No problem, when we return to Jiangzhou, there will be plenty of good wine and good meat.”
　　The Long-Browed True Man glared and said, “What do you mean, are you sarcastically saying that I’m so poor that I have nothing to eat or drink？”
　　”You misunderstood. I mean that when you go to Jiangzhou, you will be a VIP, and I will treat you with good wine and good food.” Ye Qiu’s tone changed, “Old thing, actually if you want to revive Longhu Mountain, I can help you.”
　　True Man Long Eyebrow looked at Ye Qiu vigilantly and said, “Little bastard, do you have any thoughts about this poor Taoist？”
Ye Qiu said, “Old thing, as long as you join the Dragon Gate, I can give you a position of special advisor, second only to one person and above ten thousand people. I can give the strength of the Dragon Gate to help you revive Longhu Mountain.”
　　”You’re daydreaming！ This poor Taoist is the Supervisor of Longhu Mountain. If I join the Dragon Gate, wouldn’t that be betraying my master？” True Man Long Eyebrow said, “I advise you to give up this idea. This poor Taoist will never join the Dragon Gate in this lifetime.”
　　Ye Qiu said, “It’s okay if you don’t join. I’ll go find Shui Sheng later.”
　　True Man Long Eyebrow was furious and said, “Little bastard, I warn you. If you dare to abduct Shui Sheng, I’ll never let you go.”
　　Ye Qiu smiled and said, “Tut tut tut, I was just joking. Is it necessary to be so excited？”
　　Just then, Huzi opened his eyes.
　　”You woke up？” Ye Qiu asked.
　　Huzi nodded. When he saw True Man Long Eyebrow beside him, he immediately stood up and blocked in front of Ye Qiu, looking at True Man Long Eyebrow with hostility.
　　”What, still want to fight with me？” True Man Long Eyebrow said, “It’s not that this poor Taoist looks down on you. If I make a full move, I can kill you with one finger.”
　　Huzi clenched his fists when he heard this.
　　Ye Qiu quickly said, “Huzi, don’t be impulsive. The old thing is my friend. He was just joking with me before.”
　　Huzi looked at Ye Qiu doubtfully, as if asking, is this true？
　　“The old thing is really my good friend.” Ye Qiu emphasized.
　　Huzi then let go of his fist. Then, he kowtowed three times to Ye Qiu and said, “Thank you for helping me with the compensation. When I earn money, I will definitely pay you back.”
　　Ye Qiu helped Huzi up and said, “It’s a piece of cake. You’re welcome.”
　　“Huzi, there is one thing I want to discuss with you now.”
　　“I intend to accept you as my apprentice. I wonder if you would like to worship me as your master？”
　　“If you worship me as your master, I will teach you martial arts and take you to live in the city in the future.”
　　“Do you want to？”
　　Huzi asked, “If I worship you as my master, can I punch a excavator flying？”
　　The Long-browed True Man curled his lip. Boasting！
　　Ye Qiu smiled and said, “As long as you study martial arts with me wholeheartedly, it won’t be long before you can not only punch a excavator flying, but also blow up a mountain.”
　　The Long-browed True Man curled his lip again. Pretending to be awesome！
　　Huzi was overjoyed and quickly nodded： “I am willing to worship you as my master.”
　　The Long-browed True Man said, “Kid, since you are willing to worship Ye Qiu as your master, then kowtow to him a few more times！”
　　Huzi was about to kowtow, but was stopped by Ye Qiu.
　　“There’s no rush to kowtow. Let’s talk about it later.”
　　Ye Qiu smiled and said, “Lao Xiang and the others are slaughtering pigs. Let’s go out and have a look.”
　　Two　hours　later.
The pig-killing rice was served.
　　In the courtyard, there are more than a dozen tables set up, and all the villagers in the village have arrived.
　　Lao Xiang specially arranged the village head and several respected elders at the same table as Ye Qiu.
　　”Director, why don’t you say a few words！” Lao Xiang said.
　　Ye Qiu stood up and said with a smile, “Hello, everyone.”
　　”Let me introduce myself. My name is Ye Qiu. I am a doctor and work in Jiangzhou Hospital. I am a colleague of Lao Xiang.”
　　Lao Xiang interjected, “Director Ye is my superior.”
　　Ye Qiu continued, “The place of Xiangshui Village has beautiful mountains and clear waters, and the folk customs are simple. The villagers are very enthusiastic. I like it here very much. When I have the opportunity in the future, I will come often.”
　　”Taking this opportunity, there is one thing I want to talk to everyone about.”
　　”I am going to accept Huzi as my apprentice and take him to live in Jiangzhou. Huzi himself has also agreed.”
　　”However, Huzi has lived in the village since he was a child and has been taken care of by the villagers. Speaking of which, Huzi can also be regarded as your family member. Therefore, if I want to take him away, I have to ask for your opinions.”
　　As soon as Ye Qiu’s voice fell, the village head was the first to express his position.
　　”Doctor Ye, it is Huzi’s good fortune to be able to follow you. You can take him away as you like！”
　　Subsequently, the villagers expressed their positions one after another, all supporting Ye Qiu to take away Huzi.
　　Ye Qiu has excellent hearing and heard a few villagers whispering in the corner.
　　”This unlucky star is finally going to leave. Otherwise, I don’t know how many pigs and how many chickens and ducks will die in the village.”
　　“Once he leaves, the village will be peaceful.”
　　“This jinx really has good fortune. He can actually go to live in the city. I don’t know what kind of shitty luck he has.”
　　“I don’t know what that guy surnamed Ye is thinking. He actually accepts a guy with mania as his apprentice. Is his brain kicked by a donkey？”
　　“Shh, keep your voice down. Don’t let him hear. He’s a god.”
　　“What god? He himself said he’s a doctor. Besides, it’s so far away and our voices are so low. It’s strange if he can hear.”
　　As soon as the voice of that villager fell, he suddenly felt cold all over. Looking up, he saw that Ye Qiu’s eyes were on him.”
　　No way, did he really hear？”
　　Suddenly, that villager was sweating all over his head.”
　　Ye Qiu smiled and then took back his eyes and said, “Since everyone has no objection, then please be a witness. Huzi, pay homage to the master！”
　　The Long-browed True Man guided Huzi to kowtow and offer tea to Ye Qiu to perform the apprenticeship ceremony.”
　　After a set of procedures was completed.”
　　Ye Qiu said, “Everyone, don’t be stunned. Hurry up and eat. The food is cold.”
　　However, no one moved and everyone looked at Ye Qiu.”
　　“Director, please start eating. Everyone is waiting for you.” Lao Xiang said.”
　　“Then I won’t be polite.” After Ye Qiu moved his chopsticks, everyone started to eat and the atmosphere gradually became lively.”
　　The villagers toasted Ye Qiu and True Man Changmei one by one. The two drank dozens of cups without changing their expressions.
　　Everyone ate and drank happily, and there was laughter and joy at the scene.
　　This meal lasted until dark.
　　That night, Ye Qiu and the others stayed at Old Xiang’s house.
　　In the middle of the night.
　　Suddenly, Ye Qiu in his sleep opened his eyes…
