"Fart!" Qingfengzi scolded him rudely: "In terms of talent, my nephew is the worst, and the five elements are completely average. But look at them now, they are all in the fourth or fifth heaven. He is only in his 20s! You have been practicing for more than a hundred years, and you can barely reach this level, right?"
"This~" Wang Zhiwu was immediately shocked, and then said, "Master, this, what is going on? How can you practice so fast with such a poor talent?"
When Xiaopang heard this, he was so nervous that he didn't faint. He immediately smiled bitterly and said: "Brother, what am I doing? A true genius can reach the innate realm at a few years old, and he can already build a foundation in his 20s!"
"Oh, is the aura of Cangmang Mountain so magical?" Wang Zhiwu said differently: "Master, is it because of this that the disciple cannot become a master?"
"Well, spiritual energy is certainly a reason, but you yourself are indeed a little lazy. Otherwise, there is no hope for foundation building!" Qingfengzi said helplessly.
"Oh, what if I work hard now?" Wang Zhiwu said suddenly.
"It's too late!" Qingfengzi said, hating the iron that cannot be made into steel: "You have wasted too much in these years, not only your cultivation, but also the heart of the Tao. You no longer have a heart for the Tao, and it is useless no matter how hard you try. Got it!"
"Tch, after all, it's not all the same! Anyway, there's no hope of asking, so why not enjoy it more!" Wang Zhiwu couldn't help complaining in a low voice.
"Alas!" Qingfengzi was speechless at this disciple. He could only shake his head, and then said to Xiaopang, "Xiao Zhong, you must take him as a warning and never fall in love with the world of mortals!"
"Yes, disciple knows!" Xiaopang said hurriedly and respectfully.
"Well, as long as you understand!" Qingfengzi then said: "Speaking of my Xuantian Temple, although the spiritual energy is not as rich as Cangmang Mountain, it is still pure and there are not so many annoying things. You can practice here with peace of mind!"
"Yes!" Xiaopang agreed, and then asked curiously: "Master, don't we have anything to do here?"
"Haha, it's not that the matter is nothing at all, but it's all trivial. Just let your senior brothers do the work!" Qingfengzi said directly.
"Oh, Master, this can't be done!" Wang Zhiwu was not happy when he heard this, and said hurriedly: "We have a lot of things here. We have to go to various places to look for cultivators, and we have to keep an eye on casual cultivators everywhere. We need to take care of the major events of Blue Moon Country. There are so many things that we can't handle! That's why we asked the general forum to send someone to help! Now that this person is here, you don't ask him to do any work. Do you want to tire us out?"
"Ahem!" Qingfengzi felt greatly embarrassed after hearing this. Although Wang Zhiwu said something rude, he also knew that he was really wronged. There were too many things going on here, otherwise he wouldn't have asked the general forum for help. However, Qingfengzi felt sorry for the son of his old friend and was unwilling to let him delay his cultivation for the sake of the secular world. For a moment, he fell into a dilemma.
Fortunately, Xiaopang is more sensible. When he saw Qingfengzi in trouble, he stood up and said: "Uncle, since my nephew is here to be dispatched, naturally he cannot just sit back and watch all the brothers being busy while he is free on the side, but there is something he can do to contribute." , please don’t see the outside world, uncle!"
"Alas!" Qingfengzi sighed helplessly, and then said: "In that case, let me let you work for a while! However, Wang Zhiwu, junior brother is new here, you have to arrange some light work for your junior brother. Don't delay his practice, understand?"
"Yes, master, don't worry, I will definitely take good care of junior brother!" Wang Zhiwu thought for a moment, and then said: "It's better to do this. Since junior brother has just arrived, don't do anything too complicated, and we have I’m already familiar with the work, so I don’t feel confident leaving it to you. Why don’t I ask you to help me deal with the trivial matters in Blue Moon City!”
"The trivial things in Blue Moon City?" Xiaopang asked doubtfully: "Senior brother, please try, what does the trivial things in Blue Moon City have to do with our Xuantian Villa?"
"Haha, you can't say that. After all, the Blue Moon Kingdom is supported by our Xuantian Villa. He has helped us a lot, so when they have some problems, we can't just sit back and watch, right?" Wang Zhi Wu smiled.
"Oh, that's true, but why do we monks get involved in mortal matters?" Xiaopang asked in confusion.
"Haha, that's because there are some things that mortals can't solve, so naturally we have to rely on monks!" Wang Zhiwu said with a smile: "For example, the house of the imperial master was haunted recently. As an important minister in the court, he made such a fuss , it is really unseemly to spread the news, and the people who are tossing it are panicked! It is not conducive to the stability of the country, so at this time, we monks have to help. But it happens that several of us have important things to do, and we really don’t have the time. It just so happens that Junior Brother Now that you’re here, why don’t you, on behalf of Xuantian Guan, resolve that matter today?”
"Catching ghosts? This is new, I've never done it before." Xiaopang immediately asked curiously: "Can I do it?"
"Haha, of course there is no problem!" Wang Zhiwu said with a smile: "Actually, the so-called ghosts are just the spirits of people who died unjustly. Those things can scare mortals, but in the eyes of monks, they are nothing special, unless they are the ghosts of the cultivation fruit. Xiu, that's a bit of a threat. We monks can easily deal with ordinary ghosts, they're foolproof!"
"Haha, not bad!" Qingfengzi also said, "Even a mortal in the acquired realm can barely deal with a wild ghost, let alone an innate monk like you. Since you have this opportunity, you might as well go and see it. !”
"Yes!" Xiaopang immediately felt relieved after hearing this, and immediately said: "I will obey Master Bo's order!"
"Yes!" Qingfengzi nodded, and then said to Wang Zhiwu: "Even so, just take your junior brother there!"
"Yes, master!" Wang Zhiwu agreed, and then he and Xiaopang saluted and said goodbye.
…
After leaving the cave, Wang Zhiwu introduced some of the local customs and customs to Xiaopang as he walked. As a person who often interacts with the outside world, the old Taoist priest's witty language and extraordinary knowledge made Xiaopang listen with interest.
After Wang Zhiwu's explanation, Xiaopang had a general understanding of the situation here. After the two of them came back, Wang Zhiwu said to Xiaopang: "Junior brother, when you first arrived, I should have taken care of you, but the Grand Master seemed to be haunted by ghosts, and he came to me again. This is already the third time. It’s been three times, and I can’t say no if I don’t go. So can I trouble you to go there first? It won’t take much time anyway?”
"Haha, no problem, I'm going to see what that ghost looks like?" Xiaopang said with a nonchalant smile.
"This will trouble Junior Brother!" Qingfengzi then laughed and said, "As soon as I leave, I will tell them to prepare the sedan chair!"
