Chapter 176: The Three Immortals Compete
Lao Wang's concentration is 108,000 miles worse than Lao Zhou. He didn't even notice the self-introduction of Jigong and Lu Dongbin, as well as Lu Xiaoxiao's name for Jigong, let alone the meaning. But what is certain is that tonight's encounter gave him a very, very deep stimulus, so that years later, he can still vividly recall today's scene.
All he remembers, though, is:
He was watching a sun at the table with a porcelain wine glass and chopsticks, and suddenly, a second sun appeared in the room......
"This ...... Lu, Lu Xianshi. β
Lao Zhou Chong and Lao Wang tried their best to wink.
"Uh, first, first?"
Lao Wang did not understand the situation at all. Isn't my way of cultivation just learned from you, and you haven't died yet, where did I come from? If you're talking about yourself, and your way of cultivation is passed down from your family, then you should call your old man "Father", right?
Lao Zhou was deflated.
"No formality, no formality. Lu Dong guest airway. "Sit down...... Old monk, you're moving too fast. β
This sentence woke up Lao Zhou.
"Waiter," he called, "hurry up...... Grab a few bottles of wine first, and ask for the best. β
"Aren't you waiting for the old way?"
Before he could finish speaking, a whirlwind broke out in the room. Without waiting for the waiter at the door to perform his duties, Sun Wukong, who "defeated the Buddha", appeared in the private room with a stab.
Wu Ge's parents stood up at the same time.
"Master Sun is here, don't be surprised, it's not that I don't wait for you, it's just that Master Ji is a little hungry, so I'll make some ...... first."
Wu's mother hurriedly explained. This Master Sun has a bad temper, so he has to coax a little.
However, Sun Wukong didn't seem to hear what she was saying.
"So, you two...... Is that the leader of Goer?"
He looked at Lao Zhou and Lao Wang with a smile on his face and his eyes shining.
"Uh, we, we ......"
The word "leadership", Lao Zhou and Lao Wang can't say it anyway. In front of the three great immortals, the word sounded so piercing and ironic.
Only then did Sun Wukong notice Jigong.
"Duh, dead monk...... You're so bad for words!"
"Uh...... more, more. β
Jigong explained awkwardly.
"What's the ...... a lot? If the leader doesn't serve the table, you will move the chopsticks first, what kind of system will it be? Don't you hurry up, let the two leaders sit. β
"No, no...... The three masters sat first. Everybody, please. β
Lao Zhou and Lao Wang hurriedly stopped it.
"That's not going to work. The two are leaders ......"
"Don't dare to be, don't dare to be. Several masters ......"
"You are the guests of honor, so naturally you will sit at the table. Don't be modest......"
"We are juniors......"
"How can we be ...... people of the mountains?"
The private room is full of touching comity that has not been seen in Chinese society for a long time. The guests and hosts humbled each other for half an hour. The waiters in the private dining room benefited greatly from the revival of this tradition: they were worried that the slow pace of serving would displease the customers, but now they have more time.
In the endβafter Lu Xiaoxiao rolled his eyes countless timesβWu Ge finally couldn't bear it anymore, and decisively stepped forward to press Lao Zhou and Lao Wang to their seats, and then beckoned the others to sit down one by one. Of course, this arrangement is not that the status of Lao Zhou and Lao Wang is more respected in his mind, but among the five cultivators who pushed each other, only these two people he could press.
"Ah, that'...... This master's Dharma name, Gao's surname?"
After everyone sat down, Lao Zhou got up respectfully and asked Sun Wukong.
"Poor Monkey King. Since childhood, he has been practicing in the Taoist Sect, but there is no ...... common surname"
Sun Wukong replied with a smile.
Monkey King...... This, this is not a legendary character, this is a mythical character, okay?
Lao Zhou was trembling all over.
Wu Ge's parents also heard the full name of "Master Sun" for the first time. However, they are all well-educated in materialism and do not believe in any gods or Buddhas at all. In their opinion, it is normal for the monks to use the names of "enlightenment", "law", "enlightenment", etc., and it is really normal for them to have the same name. As for Lao Wang, he didn't know that the previous "two suns" were the famous Jigong and Lu Dongbin, so he didn't have any special touch when he heard the name "Sun Wukong".
"That's, this one, this ......"
Lao Zhou looked at Lu Xiaoxiao and asked. Although the other party seemed to be just a little girl, he didn't dare to slack off in the slightest...... Even the Monkey King has appeared, do you know who this little girl will be? It is not surprising that she just said that she is Magu and the Seven Fairies.
"My name is Lu Xiaoxiao. I'm my dad's daughter. β
Lu ...... Oh. β
Lu Dongbin's daughter? This is not a small matter.
He spilled a glass of wine.
"Masters...... Immortal Master, today is really ...... Luckily. β
He couldn't go any longer, so he simply raised his glass and drank it down, as if he had just escaped death from the Taklamakan Desert.
And they all had a drink.
"Hehe, your leader's surname?"
Sun Wukong put down his wine glass and approached Lao Zhou to ask.
"Uh, don't have your surname Zhou...... Don't dare to be called a leader, don't dare to be a leader. β
"Mr. Zhou, come, I'll toast you. β
"Don't dare to call Mr...... Don't dare to be, don't dare to be. β
Old Zhou Khan has come down.
"Eat vegetables...... Don't be nervous, relax. β
Subsequently, the phrase "relax" became a common phrase at banquets. Of course, these words came out of the mouths of the three immortals. They also knew that their cultivation was equivalent to Lao Zhou and Lao Wang, which was really outrageous, and after they found out about the other party's uneasiness, they also deliberately restrained their aura, but it still didn't have much effect. This is also understandable - the two baby monkeys are surrounded by three elephants, can they relax?
"Leader Zhou, there is a word in the poor road, I don't know if to say it or not?"
After three rounds of drinking, Sun Wukong asked with a smile.
"Uh, Immortal Master, please advise. β
"Hehe, that's what the poor road said......" Sun Wukong turned the wine glass in his hand, and said tentatively with a smile on his face:
"I don't know you guys...... Organization, do you want to recruit workers now?"
"Recruitment?uh...... What does the immortal master mean?"
Lao Zhou was completely stunned.
"Hey, that is...... Sure, I'm a little older, but ......."
Lao Zhou looked at Lao Wang a little at a loss. The latter's face was flushed, and his eyes were as big as a brass bell.
"Yes, of course. We...... It's not a problem, age is absolute. β
Lao Zhou finally understood, and he was so excited that he even spoke upside down.
"What about us?"
Jigong and Lu Dongbin also hurriedly asked.
"You ...... But it's all to. Welcome, big welcome, big welcome!"
Lao Zhou's tongue was straight.
"And I and me. β
Lu Xiaoxiao shouted.
"Welcome too...... You all come. β
Lao Zhou...... I couldn't believe I was out of bed. What does it mean for the three immortals to enter the organization? It is the strength that that little girl has, and it seems that it is definitely the top in the first level.
"Then my junior sister is going too. β
Lu Xiaoxiao put forward new requirements.
"Okay. β
Lao Zhou replied very happily. "As long as we are practitioners, we want it. β
"Hmph, you guys think about playing all day long, can you stand the constraints?"
Wu Ge pouted and splashed a basin of cold water.
