Chapter 178: Named Disciple
"Senior, Miss Liu is a bit exaggerated. If I hadn't had a ghost slave and a demon pet who were good at restraining ghosts, it wouldn't have been able to easily kill the two people under the sword. It's just that I'd be more lucky." Zhang Zhexue was neither humble nor arrogant, and the place where he should be humble was still very modest.
"Haha, luck is also strength, you don't have to be too modest. Xiang Si has always praised you after she came back, especially her actions in the White Bone Cave are very similar to my intentions, with courage and knowledge, and decisive killing. The most important thing is to have good thoughts, which is very good. I also know that the Yuanji Sect where you are, is Jiang Zhengkun?" Wen Huan spoke slowly and gentle, different from the ancestor Zi Ling who Zhang Zhexue had met.
"Sect Master Jiang has already become eternal a few years ago. Before he eternal, he passed the position of sect master to my master Taoist Yunshan."
"What a pity, I have seen Jiang Zhengkun before. I have good qualifications, alas..." Wen Huan sighed and said, "I see that you are not old, so you shouldn't be old, right?"
Zhang Zhexue couldn't help looking down at himself, wondering, could she see through me? Wouldn't she see through my clothes? Then wouldn't I have exposed myself? Thinking in my heart, I unconsciously pulled the clothes on my hands.
"Tsk, what are you thinking about? Are there no bones in your head and hands? Your head is dirty." Zhang Zhexu was thinking, and Wen Huanbo's angry voice came.
Zhang Zhexue scratched his head awkwardly and said with a wry smile: "I am not young this year, I am already twenty-four years old."
"Twenty-four? Do you start practicing in your womb?" Wen Huan was really shocked. Even in Yunxiao Mountain, there was no one who could build the foundation before she was forty years old. Even she herself successfully built the foundation at the age of forty. This is already a rare genius in Yunxiao Mountain.
Zhang Zhexue scratched his head again and said silly: "I don't know what's going on. I've been practicing to this level in a daze, and my master doesn't understand it either."
"How is your master's cultivation now?"
"The foundation building is initially established."
Wen Huan sighed again and said, "Oh..., it's a pity. If you don't have a good master's guidance, your diligence will slow down. How can you teach you with your master's cultivation? Why don't you do this? You can worship me under my disciple?"
Zhang Zhexue was stunned. He knew that he had good innate qualifications, but he was not loved by everyone, right? This is true for the ancestor Zi Ling, and the same is true for this golden elixir warm ring. Why are they still women? But when I think back, I have never had contact with a male golden elixir monk.
"Senior, my master has saved me for life. I will not consider changing the sect. Thank you for your kindness." Zhang Zhexue stood up and bowed to Wen Huan.
Wen Huan looked at Zhang Zhexue with gratitude, nodded, and said, "No, I'm grateful for my kindness, and I won't forget the essence. This way, is it good to be my registered disciple? You don't have to change your sect, just treat it as my outer disciple of Yunxiao Mountain."
"This..., I have to discuss it with my master."
Wen Huan smiled and said, "What else is there to discuss? Just settle it, come and kowtow."
Zhang Zhexue raised his head and looked at Wen Huan. He didn't know what to say. Don't bring such a thing? This is too sudden, right? Isn't this forceful?
"What are you doing when you stand there? Come and kowtow!" Wen Huan sat upright and waved to Zhang Zhexue with some anger: "Come here quickly, don't wait for me to come and catch you. Master will still bow to you, but you will inevitably be beaten."
Zhang Zhexue knew that he could not escape, and he had no room for struggle in front of this intermediate-level Jindan monk. But thinking about it, this is not a bad thing. Maybe others can't ask for it, so he said, "Yes, senior."
Then he pretended to be reluctant to walk to a place ten feet away from Wen Huan, lifted up the front of the long-distance running, knelt on the ground with both knees, and said while kowtowing, "Disciple Zhang Zhexue pays homage to Master." After kowtowing three times, he looked up and asked, "Master, how many more do you want to kowtow?"
Wen Huan smiled and said, "You still feel that you are at a disadvantage if you kowtow, right? Just kowtow six more, just be more formal."
Zhang Zhexue kowtowed six more times as he was aware of tea and saw that there was tea beside the couch, so he poured a cup, turned around and raised his hands to Wen Huan: "Master, please have tea."
Wen Huan happily took the teacup, took a sip, handed it back to Zhang Zhexue, and said, "Okay, sit down and talk!"
Zhang Zhexue took a few steps back, put the teacup on the short table, bowed and said, "It's better for you to stand and return to your master's words."
"Let's sit down and talk and have a good chat with the teacher." Wen Huan pointed to the low stool: "Click the stool closer, how can you chat if you are so far away?"
When the two of them chatted, they talked until the time when they were holding the lights.
Zhang Zhexue never thought that why a middle-level Jindan monk liked to chat, asking everything, and talking about everything. From Zhang Zhexue's origin to what happened in the White Bone Cave a few days ago; after talking about Zhang Zhexue, Wen Huan actually started talking about his dozen of his disciples, and analyzed each disciple to Zhang Zhexue, starting from her eldest disciple to her closed disciple Liu Xiangsi. He also told Zhang Zhexue that if you find a Taoist partner in the future, you can choose among her disciples.
Zhang Zhexue first experienced the terribleness of a woman chatting. He kept analyzing in his mind that he might be born a slut, but he had entered the Taoist practice again. His retreat practice has almost made her feel suffocated. Therefore, once he caught someone he could see, he would have a good time to live a good life.
It was not until the night pearl in the living room was bright that Wen Huan remembered that Mei Qing was still waiting outside, so he hurriedly called the maid to go, Mei Qing and Liu Xiangsi called in together.
Mei Qing was with Liu Xiangsi outside, so she didn't feel bored. Liu Xiangsi knew her master's personality and had guessed that his master had relapsed due to an old illness, so she pulled Zhang Zhexue to chat.
When Wen Huan's maid came out and called them to go in, Liu Xiangsi realized that her master not only had a recurrence of the old illness of chatting, but also had another problem, that was, to accept others as registered disciples. She glanced at Zhang Zhexue and thought to herself: Why did Senior Brother Zhang fool my master? He actually made my master feel willing to accept disciples.
Mei Qing looked at Zhang Zhexue with complete envy.
Wen Huan and Mei Qing didn't talk much. They asked about Mei Shenglin's situation. Knowing that he was going to attack the golden elixir, they took out a bottle of elixir and gave it to Mei Qing, asking him to bring it to Mei Shenglin, and then sent Mei Qing away. Even Liu Xiangsi drove out, leaving Zhang Zhexue to continue chatting with her.
The two of them didn't know how to talk, but as they were chatting, they talked to Xiaolan City. Wen Huan complained to Zhang Zhexue that she didn't want to come to Xiaolan City and hated these chores the most, but the Jindan monks in the mountain gate were unwilling to come to her, so they just drew lots, so they could only admit that they were unlucky and came to Xiaolan City as the city lord.
Zhang Zhexue talked to it about the management of Xiaolan City. He combined the management experience he saw in his previous life and put forward a general idea for Wen Huan. The ultimate goal is to allow Wen Huan to be able to control it without spending too much effort on Xiaolan City, and at the same time, he can also gain more benefits in Xiaolan City. After all, as a city lord of Xiaolan City, it is impossible for you to be honest even if you want to be honest, not to mention that there is no concept of integrity in the mind of a monk.
Wen Huan also recognized most of Zhang Zhexue's opinions and suggestions. However, according to Zhang Zhexue's plan, the entire Xiaolan City really needs to make a big move. She was a little worried about such big moves. After all, Xiaolan City has been like this for thousands of years, and there is almost no major change. Once the move is big, the interests of all parties will be great.
"Master, of course, such a change cannot start from the entire Xiaolan City all at once. Instead, you need to choose a relatively easy place to try it, and then constantly adjust it during the attempt, leaving the appropriate methods behind, and abandoning the inappropriate methods. It is actually that simple."
Zhang Zhexue spent all his time and finally led the topic to Xiaolan City, but of course he refused to give up easily. He found an opportunity during the chat with Wen Huan. If he had a good chat, he would have the opportunity to use the power of the City Lord's Mansion to control the entire Xicheng in his hands.
What he needs now is the tiger skin from the City Lord's Mansion. Only with the tiger skin can he raise the banner.
"Master, in fact, the movement of Xiaolan City will benefit you the most. If you make it well, the income in the mountain gate will increase greatly, and your income will also increase. If you don't do it well, the mountain gate will transfer you back so that you can practice quietly in the mountain gate. Therefore, no matter what, it will benefit you."
Wen Huan thought for a while and said, "Xue'er, why don't you come to help Master and start moving from Xicheng first, which is the most chaotic place."
Zhang Zhexue shook his head like a rattle and said, "Master, this is not possible. I just say it can. I can't do it. I can't do it. Besides, I am still the main person in terms of cultivation. Too many errands will affect the disciple's cultivation and diligence." He doesn't want to take things into consideration now, beat the drums, shake flags and shout, and safeguard the interests of Yuanji Sect. He really makes him work hard, and he really doesn't want to.
Wen Huan said annoyedly: "Where are you like this? You put forward these ideas. Who knows how to do it if you don't help?"
Since his practice, Wen Huan has been practicing in Yunxiao Mountain. Because of her outstanding qualifications, she has always been the key protection object of Yunxiao Mountain. Over the past few hundred years, she has rarely participated in trivial things in the sect and does not know much about human feelings. Now she has been sent to Xiaolan City, and she has always thought about Xiao Gui and Cao Sui, just let it go after these hundreds of years.
But she found from Zhang Zhexue's chat that Xiaolan City actually has potential to dig deeper, which not only can make herself more profitable, but also can make the mountain gate more profitable. Therefore, she couldn't help but want to try it out first, and if so, then promote it.
