Chapter 1057: Debt of affection, pay it off quickly
The transaction was also made, and the things he wanted were obtained, and Ye Zan had no intention of staying here, so he said goodbye to the patriarch of the Wu clan and others. As for cultivating a relationship with the Wu clan and having a deeper understanding of the history and humanities of the Wu clan, it is simply meaningless, at least Ye Zan has no interest.
In fact, although the Wu Clan is another race other than the Terran Race, it has long been taken off the veil of mystery after living with the Terran for so many years. At least for the cultivators, the Wu clan is like some ethnic minorities in the human race, although they may have some different customs, but in the final analysis, they are also "the same blue sky above their heads".
Therefore, here in Ye Zan, this Wu tribe, like the previous Lu Jiazhai, is just an ordinary "customer" of himself. If it weren't for the purpose of selling a product that he couldn't sell, no salesman would want to be friends with a customer.
Is there a problem with Ye Zan's goods? The reason why he wants to "door-to-door sales" is only because customers do not have a normal way to buy them, not because the goods have problems and cannot be sold. It is no exaggeration to say that if these tribes in the Great Wilderness Realm could freely and conveniently buy thousands of miles of gods and firearms from Ye Zan, I am afraid that Ye Zan's inventory would have been emptied long ago.
The reason why Ye Zan wanted to sell door-to-door was only because it was difficult for those tribes to travel long distances safely in the wilderness before they had a thousand miles of transmission. This sales pitch, in fact, cannot be said to be a sales pitch, it may be more appropriate to say that it is delivered to the door, and there is no risk of returning goods without reason.
Seeing that Ye Zan was about to leave, the patriarch of the Wu clan first politely kept a few words, and then saw that Ye Zan insisted on leaving, so he seemed to have finally made up his mind and said: "Wuji Daoyou, Daoyou nobles are busy and refuse to stay here longer, and the old man can understand." However, since Daoyou insisted on leaving, the old man had a reluctant request, and after thinking about it, he decided to say it, I wonder if you can delay for a while?"
Seeing the appearance of the patriarch of the Wu clan, Ye Zan couldn't help but be a little curious, and said with a smile: "The patriarch is serious, if there is anything, just talk about it! After all, with this transaction, you and I are no strangers, and we will inevitably cooperate in the future." ”
"Fellow Daoist, wait a minute!" After the Wu clan patriarch finished speaking, he waved his hand to the side, and an elder beside him got up and walked out of the tent, and brought a Wu clan child over after a while.
This witch kid doesn't look so unusual, neither with clear eyebrows nor with any hateful face, but just a very ordinary and ordinary appearance. However, compared to the other witch children that Ye Zan had seen in the tribe, this witch child was a little special, and the special thing was that he was exceptionally short and thin.
In fact, if it is placed in the children of the human race, maybe the body of this Wu child is still stronger. However, it is different in the Wu Clan, the physical fitness of the Wu Clan, even if they are not particularly to cultivate the physical body, can definitely be called the arm can run a horse. Not only the men of the Wu tribe, but also the women and children, all of them are tall and strong, and the children are comparable to the adults of the human race, and the adult Wu people are even lower than two meters.
Therefore, at the first sight of this Wu child, Ye Zan even thought that the other party was a Terran child adopted by the Wu Clan.
However, just when Ye Zan was guessing like this, the patriarch of the Wu clan pulled the child in front of him and introduced: "Wuji Daoyou, this son is the grandson of the old man, and his surname is Wu Mingliao. ”
Ye Zan's gaze turned back and forth on the child and the patriarch of the Wu clan, who was more than two meters tall, and said insincerely: "Oh, it turned out to be the patriarch's grandson, and it was really a hero from a young man, and he looked like a ...... People with great promises. ”
Although, kind words are against his will many times, but looking at the pair of grandchildren who are relatively not like his own, Ye Zan really can't think of better words to compliment.
Hearing Ye Zan's words, the kid turned his head to the side, and the patriarch of the Wu clan smiled bitterly and said, "Friend Wuji, don't embarrass yourself! The old man also knows that the appearance of my grandson is a little special among the people of my Wu clan. However, he is indeed a member of my Wu clan, and he has the blood of the Wu clan in his body. It's just that, for some reason, his physical condition is different from that of the same race, so he will inevitably be excluded and teased by some ignorant children. ”
It sounds a little strange that the grandson of the patriarch of the dignified tribe would be excluded and teased by other children because of his appearance. However, after all, the Wu Race is different from the Terran Race, and they also have different concepts and methods from the Terran in the cultivation and education of children. It can be said that the education of the next generation of the Wu clan is somewhat similar to the Spartans in the history of the technological world, but it is not so extreme, but it is certainly not doting.
In addition, disputes between children, even on the Terran side, there are some people who believe that children should be left to settle on their own, and adults can at most give some suggestions or hints. Of course, bullying is definitely not included here, bullying is such a bad thing, even if it can be pushed to the child is ignorant, the responsibility of the other party's parents should be pursued.
It's like, if a dog bites a person, you can't bite it back, after all, it's a dog and you're a human, but its owner has to be held accountable for it.
In the world of science and technology, some animal protection people who are overflowing with love are best at stopping all problems on dogs. You say that there is dog poop everywhere in the community, and he says that dogs are not sensible, so you can't blame the dogs for that. You say that the dog pounces on people and bites people, and he says that dogs are not sensible, and it is your own problem to bite you. They are always habitually, or intentionally, to block dog owners from the topic, because most of them are dog owners and cat slaves.
Comparing children and dogs together, some people may think it's not good, but for those caring people who have a "dog son" and "cat girl", this shouldn't be any offense. In fact, scientific studies have shown that dogs are as intelligent as a four- or five-year-old child, so there is actually some truth to putting the two together.
Speaking of children, the custom of the Wu tribe is obviously that adults do not interfere with children's affairs, of course, excluding those things that are obviously excessive. In short, it was just a joke and no serious personal injury, even if he was the grandson of the patriarch, it was not a big deal in the eyes of adults.
"What does the patriarch mean?" Listening to the words of the Wu clan patriarch, Ye Zan felt a little puzzled. After all, he knew that his reputation in medicine should not be able to spread to the Great Wilderness Realm. So, does the other party mean anything other than letting him check the child's body when he asks him to look at the child?
sho(pc_middle);
"Wuji Daoyou, what the old man means is that if Daoyou doesn't dislike it, I don't know if you can take him under the door?"
"This ......" Ye Zan was a little hesitant, after all, he already had an apprentice, and he really didn't think about accepting another one so soon.
In fact, from the side of Yuqingzong, although Mo Ru and others did not say anything, they were obviously reluctant to Ye Zan to "recruit disciples". After all, Ye Zan's seniority was so high that even the seniority of his disciples was much higher than that of Mo Ru. In other words, every time Ye Zan accepts an extra disciple, it is equivalent to finding an ancestor for Mo Ru and them.
When Ye Zan accepted Shi Lin as an apprentice, Mo Ru and the others were worried about such a thing, but fortunately, Shi Lin unexpectedly did not enter the Yuqing Sect soon. Later, Ye Zan came out of the Netherworld Mansion and officially brought the stone forest into the Yuqing Sect, and also lived in the war fortress. In this way, Shi Lin will not meet Mo Ruyi and others most of the time, and the two sides will be much less uncomfortable.
But even if they don't meet often, the seniority of Shilin is still there, and when they think about it, I'm afraid there will still be a little bit of strangeness in their hearts. If Ye Zan accepts one more apprentice, if it is their kind of feeling, it will naturally be doubled, which means that he will be more uncomfortable.
Of course, Ye Zan did not have a strong desire to accept apprentices in his heart, so he would consider so much about their feelings. If he really wanted to accept an apprentice, just like he did when he accepted Shilin, he wouldn't care so much about them. Anyway, if you don't feel comfortable seeing each other, it's better to see each other less or even not at all, and you don't have to be together all day.
So, since there is no strong desire to accept apprentices, why don't you directly refuse the request of the Wu clan patriarch, but seem to be a little hesitant? Ye Zan's hesitation, on the one hand, comes from the identity of the child, and on the other hand, he just owes the other party a favor, and he is still a little embarrassed.
From the identity of Wu Liao's child, the other party is the grandson of the patriarch of this tribe, and it doesn't seem to be the kind of dispensable existence. Then, the other party worshiped Ye Zan's door, and the relationship between Ye Zan and this tribe is equivalent to directly skipping the stage of cultivating feelings. Although, Yuqingzong now has so many allies, and it may not be necessary for this tribe to do anything, but there is a way that "many friends have many roads, and more friends have more roads", which is not a bad thing.
In addition, Wu Liao's body has the blood of the Wu clan, which should also be of some help to Ye Zan to study the Wu clan's body refining method and the production method of bone weapons. Although it is impossible for him to slice this little guy and study it, he can still do it justifiably by taking some blood for a laboratory test.
Then when it comes to human affection, before Ye Zan wanted to see those things of the Wu clan, the other party directly took out the stone slab that recorded the inheritance. Although the other party took out the slate so happily because he knew that Ye Zan couldn't learn anything, Ye Zan couldn't help but accept this favor. This favor, whether it is big or small, is at least enough to make Ye Zan hesitate in the matter of accepting apprentices.
"Patriarch, you should also know that you are a cultivator, and in the cultivation method of the Wu clan, I am afraid that you will not be able to teach Ling Sun anything. Ye Zan hesitated for a moment, and decided to refuse to try it first, which can be regarded as letting the other party help him make up his mind.
Ye Zan's prevarication, of course, is not nonsense, after all, the master is the guide, and the two sides have taken different paths from the beginning, so how can they help the apprentice guide the way. Moreover, the Wu clan was unable to cultivate, this was a fact that had been verified by countless predecessors for thousands of years, and he could not forcibly break this apprentice to his own path.
"Fellow Daoist, rest assured, he has already learned all the methods of refining the body of my Wu clan, and this aspect will definitely not make Daoist friends embarrassed. What's more, Daoyou has also seen our clan's inheritance slate before, and he must also have some insight into this method of refining the body, and he can always be instructed. The patriarch of the Wu clan was not polite at all, and immediately moved out the previous favor.
"This ...... Is the patriarch really willing to let Ling Sun leave with him? You must know that Zai Xia is from the Shenhua Domain Realm, and this time he is just here to make some deals with various tribes, and he will leave this realm soon. At that time, if Ling Sun Ruo, as a disciple of the subordinates, must also go to the Shenhua Domain Realm with the subordinates. Ye Zan moved out of family affection again, hoping that the other party would change his mind.
Therefore, regardless of whether there is really a "next-generation parent", anyway, the patriarch of the Wu clan did not show any reluctance, and said with a smile: "Daoyou's words are fallacious, not to mention that good men are ambitious in all directions, purely from the perspective of the environment, if this kid can follow Daoyou and leave this dangerous wilderness, it will be a good thing for anyone." ”
Yes, it's good for your grandparents, it's good for me...... Hearing this, thinking of this, Ye Zan can be regarded as resigned to his fate, after all, in front of a child, his face did not show any helplessness, and he nodded solemnly and said: "In this case, if you can get this good apprentice, what else is there to refuse!"
"Haha, thank you so much!" The patriarch of the Wu clan laughed twice, bowed his hand to Ye Zan and thanked him, and then patted the back of his grandson Wu Liao's head and said, "Come, boy, what are you still doing standing stupidly, come and meet your master!"
That Wu Liao was also obedient, and immediately knelt down in front of Ye Zan, "Dong Dong Dong" kowtowed three times in a row, and shouted in his mouth: "Disciple Wu Liao, meet Master!"
Seeing that the other party even kowtowed, Ye Zan didn't bother to talk about the cultivator's apprenticeship, so he stretched out his hand to help Wu Liao up, and said, "Get up! Since you worship me as a teacher, no matter how your Wu clan's master and apprentice are, at least here with me, you must follow our rules." However, you don't have to worry, there are not many rules on my side, and you will know it slowly in the future. Now, let me introduce you first, this one is my eldest disciple, and he is also your senior brother, surnamed Shi Minglin. ”
Wu Liao was also very clever, and hurriedly arched his hand to Shi Lin and said, "Senior Brother Wu Liao, meet Senior Brother!"
Although, judging from the introduction of the patriarch of the Wu clan, Wu Liao has been ostracized and teased by the children of the same clan since he was a child due to physical reasons, but he has not developed a bitter and hateful heart. Now, facing the stone forest with a similar physical condition to himself, he has a feeling of finding the same kind, and his eyes are full of children's joy.
