Chapter 101 Colorful clothes delivered to the door, the first emperor's golden man
"Master, it looks like the provincial city god will not be recruiting his judges to search the mountains and seas in the short term. Qianhe and I will stay in Foping for the time being."
Ding Hai was originally worried that his master might be recruited by the Provincial City God, and it would be inconvenient for him to stay with him at that time, so he wanted to get some self-defense protective gear for Taoist Qingyun.
If he really meets Xie Ji, he won't be captured right away, thus increasing his master's chances of survival.
But judging from the information on the tablet, the provincial city god has apparently given up on letting his judges search for Xie Ji's whereabouts because of her strength.
In this case, it would be better to listen to Qianhe and stay in Foping for a while.
Taoist Qingyun really didn't want his two disciples to take risks for him.
But he also knew that Ding Hai and Chizuru had grown up and that children were no longer under the control of their teachers.
Especially Ding Hai, his strength is probably comparable to that of Yangshen Zhenjun. If they really don't listen to him, there is nothing he can do.
"Then let's hold on to Foping and hope that the provincial city god can capture Xie Ji as soon as possible." Helplessly, Taoist Qingyun chose to accept the kindness of Ding Hai and Qian He.
"It's getting late tonight, and checking out is a bit tiring. You two bastards should move to the City God Temple early tomorrow.
I will ask my men to prepare a room for you two. An inn is as comfortable as your own home."
After saying this, Taoist Qingyun disbanded this divine clone.
He had to go back quickly to make arrangements. Since the day he took office, rooms for two apprentices had been prepared at the City God Temple.
But after being vacant for such a long time, there are always some shortcomings.
Not far from Foping is Shunde, which Ding Hai has always been thinking about.
Zaomu Mountain, Microwave School.
Bai Min'er looked at the white-browed nun in front of her, who looked like gold paper, and her eyes were filled with tears: "Master, I will go find Xie Ji to avenge you."
"Silly girl, Xie Ji is not as easy to deal with as you think. You will only die in vain if you go looking for her." Master Baimei smiled as she looked at her eldest disciple Bai Min'er, whom she had raised, and did not feel sad about the impending death.
"I don't care, I want Xie Ji to die." Once a woman becomes irrational, she won't care about other things.
"Okay, okay, Xie Ji must die, but before you go kill Xie Ji, can you let me make arrangements for your funeral?" Master Baimei did not shout at Bai Min'er, but made a joke, trying to divert Bai Min'er's attention.
"Master, please say." As Bai Min'er spoke, tears began to fall from her eyes again.
“First, Caiyi’s marriage cannot be delayed any longer. She must be married to Miao Zhen as soon as possible, and Miao Zhen’s pure yang body must be used to break her yin essence.
If you still can't accomplish this before Xie Ji comes to our Microwave Sect, be ruthless and kill her.
If Xie Ji gets her, Jiuzhou will be in chaos, and the spiritual world will collapse, and all lives will be lost."
"Secondly, I am about to become a Taoist, and my whole body will be transformed into the universe. Your current realm is not enough to support the Microwave Sect, so find a good person to help you. If you like someone, go after him or her.
I have known that person. His talent and character are first-rate in today's spiritual world. He is more than qualified to be your match.
He is from the Zhengyi school, and because of his family background he has no hope of inheriting the position of the headmaster of Maoshan, so he should not care about marriage and funerals.
If you really can't wait for your soulmate, then the idiot next door is actually pretty good too. Sometimes it's happier to find someone who loves you than to find someone you love. "
Bai Min'er became furious when she heard her master mention Ding Hai. This dead wood would rather stay with a few stinky men than even look at her. Who would want to marry him?
As for that second-rate guy from the Fax Group next door who does not work all day, whoever wants to marry him can marry him.
But considering that Master Baimei was in a bad condition, she didn't dare to reveal her true thoughts: "I know, Master, I will consider it."
Nun Baimei sighed softly. She knew that her eldest disciple had a stubborn personality and once he made up his mind, nothing could change his mind.
But as a master, this is all she can do.
She knew that although her apprentice was a sensible child, she was also very stubborn. She hoped that the man she would meet in the future would be a responsible one.
Then she waved her hand, indicating that Bai Min'er could leave.
Seeing this, Bai Min'er stood up, looked deeply at Master Baimei, then turned and left the room.
As she walked out of the room, her heart was filled with surging hatred.
She wants to find Xie Ji and avenge her master.
Even though she knew she was about to face a life-and-death battle, she would not retreat even a bit.
The master's kindness in raising her and teaching her over the years is worth her dying for.
Before that, she had to fulfill her master's last wish, let Caiyi and Miao Zhen get married, and break Caiyi's Yuan Yin.
She couldn't let Xie Ji get Cai Yi, and couldn't let Jiuzhou fall into chaos, even if it would make Cai Yi hate her for the rest of her life.
Earlier, before going to Wushen Village.
Although Caiyi hated Miao Zhen's escape from marriage, her attitude towards Miao Zhen was actually softening rapidly since they had already been arranged by a matchmaker.
But ever since she met that jerk, she no longer spoke nicely to Miao Zhen.
How could Bai Min'er not know what she was planning? She was also planning the same thing.
If there hadn’t been the evil concubine before, this wouldn’t have been a big deal.
It doesn’t matter whether Caiyi marries or not to Miao Zhen.
But that’s no longer possible. My master will never do something without a purpose.
Without obtaining the colorful clothes, Xie Ji was able to severely injure her own master, forcing her to transform into a Taoist earlier than expected.
If she gets the colorful clothes, I'm afraid that Xie Ji will really bring chaos to the world in the future, and even endanger the entire spiritual world.
This kind of thing must not happen. I must go talk to Caiyi.
The next morning, Ding Hai and Qian He checked out and went directly to the City God Temple.
When they saw the room prepared for them by Taoist Qingyun, they couldn't help feeling a warm feeling in their hearts.
The layout of the various objects was almost the same as that in the right wing of Qingyun Temple in the capital.
Master is thoughtful ×2
Taoist Qingyun's attentiveness and care made Ding Hai and Qianhe feel the love and care of their own master that he could never express.
After the two brothers moved into the City God Temple, they each went about their own business.
Ding Hai stayed in his room all day, thinking about designing one or two magical weapons and talismans that could be instantly activated and withstand the attack of a Yang Shen master.
Qianhe was thrown to the keeper of the City God Temple by Taoist Qingyun, who asked the keeper to take his second disciple, who had decent strength, to learn more about the ways of the world.
Although Foping City God Temple is not as big as the one in Beijing, the judges who have served in Foping for generations were so bored that they often cleared out the demons and monsters around.
Therefore, Foping City God Temple is quite popular in the surrounding area, and dignitaries and common people often come here to pray to the gods and make wishes.
How to deal with the common people is a science.
How to deal with dignitaries is also a science.
Taoist Qingyun believes that Qianhe already has a certain level of strength and accomplishment, but lacks the experience and skills to interact with others.
Ding Hai may not care about these things. His fists are big and hard. Only others praise him, and it is not his turn to praise others.
But Qianhe can't do that. His innate talent is there, and if he doesn't learn how to deal with people, he will suffer a great loss in the future.
Therefore, he decided to let Qianhe follow the temple keeper to learn how to deal with human relationships, especially how to deal with people from different classes.
The temple keeper of the City God Temple is an elderly man who looks honest and kind, but sometimes there is a shrewd gleam in his eyes. He is a smart man.
Not smart. Taoist Qingyun had already driven him out after taking office, and would never let him become his chief steward no matter what.
In the next few days, Qianhe began to follow the temple priest to receive visiting pilgrims.
Some of them are ordinary people, and some are local officials and wealthy businessmen.
Although Chizuru learned a lot from them, she also felt a little impatient.
He found that no matter whether they were high-ranking officials or ordinary people, except for being sincere when making a wish to the City God, they did not take other people and gods in the City God Temple seriously at other times.
They come to the City God Temple for only one thing, which is to ask the gods to fulfill their wishes.
Taoist Qingyun saw the doubts and dissatisfaction in Qianhe's heart. One day, after closing the door, he took Ding Hai to find his second apprentice and said, "Qianhe, do you know why I must make you learn how to deal with people?"
Taoist Qingyun spoke first, his voice sounding particularly deep in the silent night.
Qian He replied respectfully, "Disciple understands. Master feels that I have been practicing Taoism on my body for many years and am not very familiar with the ways of the world. He is afraid that I will suffer in the future when I travel the world."
Taoist Qingyun smiled and shook his head, then looked at Ding Hai: "Boss, Qianhe's understanding is still a little lacking, you go and tell him."
Ding Hai, whose mind was full of thoughts about refining weapons and making talismans, glanced at Qian He who still hadn't figured it out: "What you said is just the surface.
As long as I am here and Master is here, you only need to understand the ways of the world and the human relationships.
The reason why Master arranged for you to integrate into the City God Temple and receive people is just to let you see the complexity of human nature and the variability of society, observe this world from the side, and sharpen your own Tao heart.
Until your heart of Taoism is strong enough to roll around in this world, let me ask you, what do those dignitaries ask for when they come here to burn incense? "
"Power, money and lust are the main things, and family safety is secondary." Qianhe summarized the wishes that the dignitaries she had recently received usually made.
"What about the common people?"
"I pray for the health of my family first, and good weather second."
"Any idea what this means?"
“It means that although the rich and powerful have enough power and wealth, they are also more greedy.
Ordinary people are more concerned about managing their own small families." Qianhe expressed his thoughts without hesitation.
But this result choked Ding Hai and Qingyun Taoist priests at the top to death.
He abruptly blocked their words that were about to teach Chizuru.
Ding Hai and Taoist Qingyun now realized that this stupid junior brother/disciple of theirs was a person who was arrogant and sympathetic to the weak.
There is nothing wrong with being arrogant to those above you and compassionate to those below you.
But at this moment, he has already put on tinted glasses for all living beings in the world, dividing people into different levels.
It is difficult to feel everyone's joys, sorrows, anger, and happiness with a normal heart.
He prefers to be closer to the grassroots people and think more from their perspective.
But he forgot that he was actually an outsider.
We should stand outside the secular world, look at everything dialectically, and then help the weak without violating justice and morality.
"Well, Master, your teaching method won't have any effect on Chizuru." Seeing this, Ding Hai stopped talking. This kid has already found his class position.
No matter how much I say, I'm afraid he won't listen.
Looking at the somewhat disappointed eyes of his senior brother and master, Qianhe's lips moved several times.
But in the end he said nothing.
He understood his own master's idea, which was to let him see more of the world's joys and sorrows, and to practice in the world from the side first.
It would be best if one has a deep understanding and can directly jump out of worldly practice.
Even if you can't do it, you must still sharpen your resolve to become more resilient so that you can prepare for true worldly practice.
However, Chizuru doesn't think there is anything wrong with him. He is just doing what he thinks is right and caring for those who need his care more.
Taoist Qingyun sighed deeply. The boss Ding Hai may be dissatisfied with small matters but not big ones. He is very mature and can bend and stretch.
As long as he doesn't get too hung up on things, no one in this world can make him suffer, so there's no need for him to ask too many questions.
Qianzuru has been reckless and impulsive since childhood, and he wanted to take this opportunity to temper his temper.
I didn't expect that this brat has already made up his mind, but the path he has chosen is not easy to follow in this chaotic world!
Taoist Qingyun looked at Qianhe, feeling both relieved and worried.
The good news is that Qianhe can stick to his own path and move forward courageously without fear of difficulties. The bad news is that this road is too bumpy and he is afraid that he will suffer a lot in the future.
"Qianhe, do you know how many hardships you will face on the path you have chosen?" Taoist Qingyun spoke slowly, his voice full of concern and admonition.
Qianhe was slightly startled, then nodded firmly: "Master, disciple knows."
"But I believe that only by caring for those who need care more can we truly realize the meaning of practice."
He had this idea when he was in the capital.
Master Wang Wu and the Six Gentlemen of the Wuxu Reform are all people who can live a good life with their own abilities.
But in order to make people all over the world live a good life, they sacrificed their lives and shed their blood.
Although I am a mountain man, I should not be indifferent to this chaotic world.
Taoist Qingyun looked at Qianhe's determined eyes and said no more. He just patted Qianhe's shoulder gently to show his support and encouragement.
Ding Hai also didn't say much. As long as Qianhe didn't do anything wrong, with him around, it wouldn't be a problem for her to keep her life.
If you are willing to take a more tiring path, then take the more tiring path.
After a night talk, the three masters and apprentices did not end in a bad mood, but it was not perfect either.
In fact, this is normal. People will always have their own thoughts when they grow up.
The next morning, Ding Hai, who was doing morning lessons with Chizuru, unexpectedly saw a familiar person.
Caiyi from the Immortal Academy? Why is she here?
When Caiyi saw Ding Hai, she was also stunned.
She rubbed her eyes in disbelief?
I just heard that the judge of Foping has a deep connection with Maoshan, so I wanted to ask the judge to help pass a message to Maoshan, and it would be best if I could contact that bastard directly.
I didn’t expect that I could achieve my wish without even asking the judge for help.
Am I dazzled?
"Miss Caiyi? Why did you come to Foping City God Temple? Are you looking for help? Or..." After coming to Foping, how could Ding Hai not know about the surrounding sectarian forces.
After asking his master, who was a local boss, he heard the names of the Fax School and the Microwave School.
If it weren't for the incident with Xie Ji, he would have found a way to wander to Shunde long ago to see if he could eat Hu Jianzai's clay pot rice while coaxing Bai Min'er or Cai Yi to go to first or second base or something.
I attended a friend's wedding banquet and helped decorate the bridal chamber. There is a dinner party tonight. I typed these words in the bathroom of a KTV. In order to ensure full attendance, I copied and pasted the last one or two paragraphs of the first post from the previous scrapped draft. They have been changed and an extra 300 words have been given as compensation. Now I am going to continue drinking. Here, Lao Xiong wishes everyone a happy May Day and hope that everyone can find the one they love. Don't be like Lao Xiong, who can only watch his friends enter the marriage hall one after another and remain alone. The updates he owes will be made up during the May Day period.
