350, sister, get a bird
Wang Chong and Yao Yue abandoned the water and clouds and went ashore.
Wang Chong didn't bother to ask what kind of sea country this place was. He and Yao Yue walked for twenty or thirty miles and saw a family. After asking for a while, they went straight to the only village on the island.
This island is not big and the scenery is average. Wang Chong has long lost interest in it, but Yao Yue wants to relax.
The little thief demon had no choice but to accompany him.
Because of the Aluo religion, the island countries in the sea near Daluozhou were able to be enlightened and educated, and there were very few ignorant people.
This village makes a living by fishing. There are no monks, but there is a family of scholars who have opened a school and taught more than a dozen children.
Wang Chong was also quite surprised. His Danding Island was not far from here, and even a sea ship was only a day's journey away. Almost all Danding Islands were monks, but there were no practitioners here.
He asked for a moment, but no one was interested in practicing anything, but instead dismissed it as nonsense.
Wang Chong could only go with Yao Yue to visit the scholar. It happened that this gentleman stopped teaching and let the children go free. When he saw people from outside the island visiting, he couldn't help laughing and said: "But the people from Danding Island Monk?"
Wang Chong raised his hand in salute and replied: "It's from Danding Island."
This gentleman invited Wang Chonghe and Yueyue to watch. His home was divided into two main rooms, the inside and outside. The outside served as a classroom, and the inside served as a resting place.
He invited the two of them to sit down outside and said with a smile: "It's narrow inside, so it's easier to talk here. Haiju doesn't have much tea, so I'll make you two a bowl of seaweed soup!"
The teacher turned up the stove, got some kelp and shrimp, threw them into the pot, and started cooking over low heat.
Wang Chong couldn't help but ask: "Sir, why don't you go to Danding Island to learn Taoism? Besides self-study, you can also teach children? As long as you have a little magic power, you can do these chores with just a raise of your hands."
The teacher smiled and said, "How come I haven't been there? The monks on Danding Island are also kind. They gave me guidance in more than three months, and I can barely refine my qi. However, my progress is very slow. I'm afraid I won't be able to refine my qi in less than a few decades."
"Except for those Tiangang big monks on Danding Island who are supported by sects, the rest of the minor cultivators still have to work hard to make a living on their own. How can I have that luxury and spend decades refining qi? I'm afraid that if I can't refine qi, my family will starve to death. "
Wang Chong and Yao Yue had never heard of the term "Tiangang Overhaul". It was not like they had never seen ordinary people before, so they understood it in their hearts.
At the beginning, Yanbei and Shang Wenli were slightly better qualified. It would take twenty or thirty years for Shang Wenli to break through the innateness. It took Shang Wenli a full forty years to break through the innateness.
Although the practice of Danding method is several times faster than ordinary martial arts mental methods, there are many lay people in the world, and talented martial arts masters like Yan Bei and Shang Wenli are also rare.
For example, this gentleman, who has been able to refine his Qi for decades, is an ordinary person.
Wang Chong and his ilk have never experienced the despair of practicing so hard but progressing slowly, like an old ox breaking a cart.
This gentleman is like this, and those fishermen are even worse qualified and cannot practice hard, so they naturally hate practicing.
Wang Chong sighed slightly, and suddenly remembered that Ling Suer had asked him to be a beggar for twenty years and to refine his heart in the world of mortals.
Although he also practices the Celestial Talisman Book, he majors in the Classic of Mountains and Seas. He usually sees many fairies and few ordinary people. He has never thought about refining one's heart in the world of mortals.
"If I hadn't accompanied Sister Yao Yue to play, I probably wouldn't have known that someone was actually plotting against the Alchemy Cauldron Sect, and I wouldn't have known how miserable it is for ordinary people to not be able to practice."
"As my cultivation deepens, I am afraid that my exposure to these mundane things will become less and less, and I will be even less able to feel these daily principles."
The teacher cooked the kelp soup and gave it to Wang Chong and Yao Yue. Yao Yue loved Jie and never ate food from outside, so she gave it to Wang Chong.
Wang Chong smiled, picked up the bowl and took a sip. He found it delicious and had a salty aroma, so he started chatting freely with the other party.
This gentleman's name is Zhang Yun, and his ancestors were also from the East. Because he was accused of violating the imperial court, his family fled overseas. Now, out of a population of hundreds, he is the only one left, and the rest of his family members are dead and displaced.
Wang Chong heard the misery and knew that he could not comfort him. On the contrary, Zhang Yun saw clearly and said with a smile: "I am teaching these children now. I hope they will learn some literature and calligraphy. I don't expect them to recite poems and write poems. They will read through the past and present. I hope I can become a little enlightened, and I don’t want to never see the world beyond this island for the rest of my life.”
"It's a pity that after a few decades, I will be reduced to a handful of loess. I am afraid that the people on this island will gradually forget the written word and remain ignorant."
Wang Chong's heart skipped a beat, remembering something, he quietly escaped from the second soul, and came out of the vast ocean in a moment.
The big fish killed by Mrs. Yao Yue was still floating in the sea. Wang Chong activated the Six Void Techniques. When he grabbed it with his hand, a blue talisman flew into the air. After a brief inspection, he found that because the sea monster was dead, there was something amiss. As time passed, Tao Xing's magic power dissipated a lot, but he didn't care.
The second spirit took away the Liuxu Talisman and was about to return to his original body, when suddenly he saw the big fish under his feet fester, and a young man appeared.
Wang Chong knew that it must be the person controlling this monster body. He didn't care at first, but he just took a closer look, but there was something about it. After thinking about it carefully, he unconsciously said to himself: "Isn't this the sea-controlling snake?"
He and Yao Yue fought against the Three Owls of the East China Sea. They once stayed at sea and met Fairy Jincheng. The family they stayed with called themselves the Tiyu Huang family. The head of the family, Mr. Huang, had two young men who called themselves Tiyu Feilu and Tiyu Sea Snake.
Wang Chong didn't expect that he would kill an acquaintance today.
He thought in his heart: "No wonder the Su Lan Kingdom is in such chaos, and there are no loyal ministers and lofty ideals. I took away the country, but suddenly some old prime minister appeared and wanted to plot against the Danding Sect. It turned out to be The Tiyuhuang family is up to something."
"Back then, the great demon Zhonglion was teaching in the Kingdom of Shili and taught the art of human-monster transformation. I was afraid that the poison would be endless, so there were these remnants."
"That's fine, as long as they don't fall into my hands, let them temper Xi Nan, Xi Yuan and Xi Luo. I will always protect them, but it's not good. Without tempering, it is easy to produce some prodigal disciples."
Wang Chong casually pointed his hand, and a bolt of lightning fell, turning the body of Tiyu Sea Snake into fly ash. In a flash, he returned to his original place.
Even Mrs. Yaoyue didn't notice that her "brother" had already gone out for a while.
Wang Chong smiled and said to Zhang Yun: "Thanks for the hospitality, I have a small gift for you. Mr. Wanwang, please don't refuse."
Wang Chong casually clapped his hands and drove the newly refined Liuxu Talisman into Zhang Yun's body, and said to Yao Yue: "Let's find another place to play. There is no scenery here."
Mrs. Yao Yue quite liked the customs and humanity, but seeing that Wang Chong couldn't bear his temper, she had no choice but to get up and leave with him.
Wang Chong pointed to another island not far away and said, "Sister, just get a bird! I really don't want to be a water cloud anymore."
