Ding Mingde's expression changed drastically. He was both shocked and surprised. He didn't expect that the uncle he was still thinking about just now would appear directly in front of him. After coming back to his senses, he hurriedly said to the two maids: "Please step aside first, this is my distinguished guest."
Although the two maids were curious, they knew how to advance and retreat. Seeing the serious expression on their master's face, they hurriedly exited the corridor in small steps.
Seeing the two maids leaving, Ding Mingde let out a long breath, stepped into the door, closed the door tightly, and then fell to his knees suddenly: "My nephew is attending my uncle's visit. I didn't know that my uncle is here." , I have missed you so far." I was a little worried and a little happy. What I was worried about was that I didn't know whether my uncle was satisfied with my practice and whether he would take me back to the mountains to practice Taoism. What I was secretly happy about was that I only had the "Gui Zhen Jing" back then. 》In the previous part, there was no way to continue practicing, so I thought of integrating the most familiar Confucian knowledge into Taoism.
Shi Xuan said: "I just came here to ask you a question. After asking, I will leave immediately."
Ding Mingde felt a thump in his heart and did not dare to stand up. He continued to ask respectfully: "Uncle, please ask. Mingde dare not hide it."
"Are you willing to go back to the mountain with me to practice Taoism?" Shi Xuan asked lightly.
Ding Mingde’s head was buzzing. He was really here to take him back to the mountains. What was there? wood? Beast? A simple meal? Or can you only be vegetarian? Just when he was about to say that he had a wife and children, he saw his uncle smiling and saying, "Of course, I'm not unkind. I heard that you have a wife and children, so I can take them to the mountains together." Shen Dao. Just answer me, are you willing or not?"
Ding Mingde remembered that every time he drank tea, he used the best celadon, and when he ate, he used bowls carved from precious white jade. The dishes on the table didn't look like many, but they were all made with top-quality ingredients from all over the world, except The emperor, only he can enjoy it.
My own robe, which looks nothing out of the ordinary, was woven one by one by ten female workers using the most precious silk. When you go out, you don't need to step on the ground. You only need to sit high in a sedan chair and give orders to dozens or hundreds of servants.
Back home, there is a lovely wife and beautiful concubine who expresses her love. Although she is not too obsessed with women, when the mood comes, there are so many maids and maids of different ages. She is willing to crawl on any one she likes. On to his own bed.
The most noble, powerful, and wealthy person in the world, the emperor, who is known as the dragon among men, must treat himself as a teacher and be extremely respectful. Not to mention the officials and nobles, big and small, every word he said made them think deeply and respect him. As for businessmen and ordinary scholars, they are not even qualified to see me!
Remembering the sermon just now, I glanced at it and saw that everyone held their chests and heads high, for fear of being a little disrespectful. Ding Mingde knew that he had the answer, so he kowtowed nine times in a row and said: "Disciple still has many stains from the world of mortals. , but it is not convenient to follow my uncle back to the mountain to practice Taoism."
Shi Xuan nodded: "In that case, I won't force it, but I can't give you the second half of the "Gui Zhen Jing"." As soon as he finished speaking, Shi Xuan turned into a clear light and disappeared in the blink of an eye. disappeared.
Ding Mingde took a while to get up, feeling as relaxed as if he had put down a big stone. Although he could not get the second half of the "Gui Zhen Jing", he no longer had to worry about losing his glory and wealth and being forced to practice Taoism in the mountains. However, after not seeing him for twenty years, I thought that my cultivation level could catch up with my uncle. But when I saw him today, my uncle became even more unfathomable.
…………
After leaving the Depth of Field View, Shi Xuan did not return to the Chen family. Instead, he left the Divine Capital directly and prepared to go to the deep valley that he had made an appointment with Chu Yuyan to ask Chu Wan'er if she would like to practice Taoism overseas.
It is not a pity for Shi Xuan that Ding Mingde is fascinated by foreign objects. This can also be used as a reference for his future practice. After this period of experience in the world of mortals, Shi Xuan only feels that the true energy is becoming more and more agile, and he is close to the perfection of entraining the energy. It's not far away. Of course, you must leave the Middle Earth before trying to break through. Otherwise, I don't know where it will be moved by Shenxiao Palace.
Many passers-by saw a young Taoist on the official road from the capital to Luojing. His clothes were fluttering and his face was peaceful. Every step he took seemed to be the same size as measured with a ruler. It was only a few steps. In the blink of an eye, he disappeared before his eyes.
This made those pedestrians feel chills on their backs. Thinking of Mang Mountain, a holy burial place nearby, they were even more afraid to hurry up and stay away from this place.
…………
In a deep mountain canyon near Luojing, there is a small wooden house. A girl in white clothes is sitting in a daze under the tree in front of the house. She is petite and has a childish appearance. She looks only eleven or twelve years old.
Suddenly there was a sound of footsteps. The girl looked back warily and saw the familiar young Taoist standing in the distance with a smile.
Shi Xuan didn't expect that Chu Wan'er would only grow up to four or five years later twenty years later, so he was a little surprised when he saw the girl opposite pouted and said: "Master is a liar."
"Master has only recently been free to come back." Shi Xuan explained lightly. Chu Wan'er suddenly arched her eyebrows and said with a smile: "No explanation, master, you are late anyway. However, the master came to pick up Wan'er, Wan'er was very happy."
Seeing that Chu Wan'er didn't really care about this, Shi Xuan asked with a smile: "It's been twenty years, why have you grown up so little?"
Chu Wan'er took Shi Xuan back to the wooden house and sat down, then she supported her chin with her hand and said, "That's a pill that my mother went to Luojing to see the dragon sixteen years ago. It's said to be able to keep one's appearance and prolong life. Then when my mother gave it to Wan'er, she told her to wait until Wan'er was eighteen before taking it, and she would stay young forever."
Then Chu Wan'er giggled and said: "But Wan'er thought at that time that if Wan'er looked like an adult, master, you probably wouldn't recognize Wan'er when you came back, so after a few days, he secretly Eat."
Shi Xuan sweated slightly: "Wouldn't that affect the effect of the exercise?" Shi Xuan had never taken this type of elixir, and he didn't know much about it.
Chu Wan'er raised her head slightly and thought for a moment: "It doesn't matter, it's just some changes in appearance and body."
"It's okay. Where is your mother?" Shi Xuan thought he would see Chu Yuyan.
A trace of sadness flashed in Chu Wan'er's eyes: "Mother and Wan'er's bad father died together thirteen years ago. Unfortunately, Wan'er's cultivation was still shallow at that time and could not help mother."
Shi Xuan comforted him for a few words, and saw that Chu Wan'er was talking and acting as if he was only fifteen or sixteen years old, so he asked: "Wan'er, have you stayed here to practice all these years?" This is probably the only case in this situation. It will only happen if you practice for a long time and have less contact with the outside world.
Chu Wan'er nodded proudly: "Yes, my mother said at first not to have contact with those people in the Holy Sect to avoid any bad influence. After my mother passed away, Wan'er always kept it in mind."
After a pause, she glanced at Shi Xuan quietly. When she saw Shi Xuan looking at her without saying a word, Chu Wan'er said shyly: "Wan'er confessed that after my mother passed away, Wan'er sometimes got bored staying on the mountain. , I would go down and play tricks on them, or talk to a few children and have fun.”
At Chu Wan'er's age, practicing alone in the mountains for many years, it is easy for her to have some psychological barriers, but seeing how she adjusted herself and is still bouncing around is really a gift. Of course, half of the reason for this is that Chu Yuyan made good arrangements to keep Chu Wan'er away from the big dye vat of the Demon Sect and adapted to Qing Xiu since she was a child.
Originally, Shi Xuan, among the four disciples, was a little worried about Chu Wan'er, because she was too young, had an unstable temperament, and was easily contaminated by the outside world. She was also the daughter of the Demon Queen, and she was in a demon sect, so she would become bad. The probability is definitely more than half. But what I didn't expect was that Chu Yuyan valued her daughter so much, letting her live in the mountains and supervising her practice at all times. Therefore, sometimes people are affected by the environment, especially some close relatives.
"Haha, Wan'er, don't you think it's hard to practice?" Shi Xuan didn't realize that Chu Wan'er was lying about what he said before, so he continued to ask.
Chu Wan'er glanced at Shi Xuan strangely: "Master, practicing is so interesting, how can it be painful! It's just that when I'm not practicing, Wan'er feels a little bored, and there's no one to talk to Wan'er on the mountain, so I can only go down the mountain. Go find those children, or bully the wild beasts in the nearby mountains and forests."
After that, Shi Xuan asked about Chu Wan'er's cultivation progress. She was already at the peak of her out-of-body experience. Due to the difficult problems back then, she had no way to go further, so Shi Xuan corrected the mistakes she made before. At the same time, he answered some of Chu Wan'er's questions.
"Wan'er, master asked you something, and you have to answer solemnly." Shi Xuan finally said his purpose.
Chu Wan'er also acted like a young adult pretending to be serious, and nodded heavily: "Master, just ask."
Shi Xuan changed the words that Taoist Master Piequanzi said back then, and said them in a different way, and then asked: "Wan'er, are you willing to go overseas to practice as a teacher?"
Chu Wan'er didn't think about it at all and said: "Of course I do. Wan'er wants to see the sea, Wan'er wants to catch monsters, and Wan'er wants to fly into the sky and escape from the earth." Therefore, practitioners like to train disciples from an early age. It's not unreasonable, but as we get older, this innocent heart will gradually disappear. What kind of character we can have by then depends entirely on tempering.
When Shi Xuan saw this, he also smiled and said: "There is only half a year left for the Penglai sect's ten-year recruitment ceremony. With Wan'er, your talent, realm, and character should not be a big problem, plus you have your teacher. If the ancestor is inside the door, then there is no need to worry. I will take you back to Longguan and then teleport to Tide Square."
Chu Wan'er looked at Shi Xuan and pouted: "What about you, master?"
Shi Xuan smiled and patted her head: "As a teacher, I will continue to travel. I hope that when I return to the sect, Wan'er, you will have reached the stage of entraining Qi. But Wan'er, you have to remember that you cannot rely on taking food. To advance the elixir, you need to lay a solid foundation step by step, and the way of practice needs to be slow and slow."
Chu Wan'er didn't dare to laugh when she saw the master's solemn words. She held her head high and said confidently: "Wan'er must remember it. Master, when you come back, you will definitely see that Wan'er has entered the entrainment period!" After pausing for a moment, Wan'er asked innocently: "But master, you will return to the sect in a few years. If it is only one or two years, Wan'er will find it a bit difficult..."
