Chapter 18: A Pair of Master and Apprentice
Liu Pingsan shook his head and didn't make a sound, Liu Pingsan is indeed not in the world, but after so many years of lonely life, he can still perceive whether a person is good or bad for him.
The man in Confucian clothes also accepted it when he saw it, and after getting the information he wanted to know, he didn't ask any more.
I saw him stand up, toast Liu Pingsan with a glass of wine, and said: "Little brother, Fang is my Zhang someone's abrupt, here I toast you with a glass of wine, the right to make amends for what happened just now, how?." ”
Mr. Zhang said seriously. ”
City Lord Mo Qianshan played a round on the side and said: "Oh, Brother Zhang, Little Brother Liu, we are all like-minded people, we should support each other, how can we seem so different from each other?"
"What Brother Mo said is very true, I don't know what you think, little brother, should you still be angry with someone in my chapter?"
Liu Pingsan didn't like this kind of hypocrisy, but it didn't mean that he wouldn't, so he also raised the teacup in his hand, smiled, and said, "How can it be? ”
Liu Pingsan's character has always been like this, if someone is willing to sincerely treat him with three points, he will definitely return seven points to the other party, but if someone just wants to deal with him with a false face, he doesn't need to dig out his heart and lungs with the other party.
Liu Pingsan thought for a while, suddenly looked at Mo Qianshan curiously, and asked, "City Lord Mo, I have a question, I don't know if I should ask it?"
Mo Qianshan smiled heartily: "Eh, little brother, but it doesn't hurt to say it, Mo must know everything, and he will say everything." ”
"I just heard from City Lord Mo that we are all fellow Daoists, so I don't know what system of cultivators City Lord Mo is?"
"Haha, Mo Mou is just a small Menting Realm cultivator, it's not worth mentioning, unlike this Brother Zhang next to me, that's amazing, he is a cultivator of the Huang Zhen Realm, and it is precisely because of his help that I can sit firmly in the position of this city lord. ”
Liu Pingsan was a little surprised when he heard this, not because he thought how strong these two people were, but because he thought of Lin Xuan's sister, who had already reached Huang Zhenjing at the age of ten, so it seemed that he was really a proud son of the sky.
Thinking of this, Liu Pingsan couldn't help but smile and was sincerely proud of his sister.
"Then I don't know what the strength of Qingrui City's worship is?"
"This ......" Mo Qianshan heard this, his tone was stunned, obviously a little difficult to speak.
"It's okay, if it's inconvenient for City Lord Mo to speak, I won't ask. ”
Mo Qianshan picked up the wine glass, took a sip, and then continued: "Actually, there is nothing to say, it's just a little difficult to say, little brother, you also know that in a small city like ours, most of them are ordinary people who live in some powerless chickens, so there are only some casual cultivators like me, who are willing to come here to be a city lord and enjoy some secular glory and wealth, but to put it bluntly, it is just a role for some sects to run errands." ”
Speaking of this, Mo Qianshan's tone paused slightly: "So, those so-called offerings are actually sent by the sect to control the small city, and people don't care about what happens in the city, only when some big things happen, those adults will take action, so in fact, I also know that people's cultivation is profound, and it is definitely very powerful, but I can't see how powerful it is." ”
Speaking of this, Mo Qianshan sneered and added: "Of course, the most important thing for those adults to come down is to ensure the safety of a small city like ours." ”
Hearing this, Liu Pingsan really began to have some understanding of the human city.
Subsequently, a few people in the hall pushed the cup and changed the lamp, which can be called the joy of the host and guest.
During this period, Mo Qianshan also vaguely expressed his intention to solicit Liu Pingsan, but Liu Pingsan still made an excuse and politely refused.
Before leaving, Mo Qianshan asked someone to bring Liu Pingsan a small wooden box, saying that it was a little care specially prepared for Liu Pingsan, but Liu Pingsan did not refuse, and accepted all of them as ordered.
On the carriage on the way back, Chen Chuyi opened the wooden box curiously and looked at it, and said to Liu Pingsan with a surprised expression: "Master, it's all gold and silver treasures, it seems that the Mo City Lord is quite interesting." ”
When Liu Pingsan heard this, he shook his head with a smile and said, "It's just some worldly property, walking in the earthly world may still have some effect, but for us cultivators, it is really nothing." ”
"Master, what is precious to us cultivators?"
Liu Pingsan thought for a while and replied seriously: "For us who cultivate the Dao Law, the main things are talismans, exercises, pills, etc., but as a teacher, you also know these," Speaking of this, Liu Pingsan couldn't help but smile bitterly, and then continued: "But these things, as a teacher, there are only some that your grandfather Yuanzhen and Aunt Lin Xuan gave at the beginning." ”
Hearing this, Chen Chuyi said innocently: "Master, hearing you say this, are we very poor?"
"Well, so to speak. ”
"Then I will eat less at one meal in the future, don't buy sugar gourds, don't buy new clothes, let's save money to buy those exercises and pills, okay?"
Liu Pingsan raised his head, glanced at his apprentice seriously, and then gently touched the apprentice's head with his hand, and said softly: "Okay, then let our master and apprentice save money together and be ready to endure hardships?"
"Hmm. ”
Inside the Castle Lord's Mansion.
Mo Qianshan looked at the man in Confucian costume who was still sitting there drinking alone, and asked seemingly casually, "In the text, what do you think of the young man just now?"
The man smiled, put down his glass, and said, "I wonder what the city lord is asking?"
"You say whatever. ”
"On the outside, although he is a teenager, his face is like a crown of jade, and his demeanor is graceful, but he can also be called a young man with a jade tree in the wind. ”
Mo Qianshan laughed loudly when he heard this, pointed at the man in Confucian costume, and said, "In the text, when will you learn to joke?"
The man in Confucian costume spread his hands helplessly and said, "What I said is the truth?"
"But you know that's not what I'm asking. ”
"The others, not biased, know how to advance and retreat, and I used my divine sense to probe before, except for the fact that I can detect that he is a monk of the Yellow True Realm, there is nothing else to gain, do you know what this can mean?"
"Huh?"
"Either it's just an ordinary casual cultivator, because of a little chance, he was able to step into the cultivation realm, or someone superior helped him cover the heavenly machine and didn't let me wait for detection. ”
Speaking of this, the man in Confucian costume suddenly laughed before continuing: "Old Mo, do you think which of the two outcomes is more likely?"
"I guess it's the former, to be honest, I don't feel anything special from him. ”
"But I think the latter is more likely?"
"Why?"
"I don't know, after all, I'm only a monk in the Xuanwu Realm, right?"
Mo Qianshan snorted in a sullen voice and said, "Now it's just the two of us, you are still squirming here!"
"Old Mo, don't worry, I also learn from those Taoist priests, tell you a word about the heavens that must not be revealed, haha, let's wait and see. ”
"When a scholar speaks, it's troublesome, I was tired enough to pretend to be a layman before, but I didn't expect to listen to you here to hear some nonsense covered by clouds and fog. ”
"Don't be in a hurry, you, you're just too impatient. ”
