What is it like to be a saint?

Chapter 5 Babel in Modern Times

Sect Master Tongtian walked out of the cramped and crowded room and walked outside the door.

A strange, magnificent and peculiar new world is coming.

In front of you is a quiet alley.

A few lamps of unknown material, blooming with white light, illuminated the alley.

At the intersection not far away, a mortal wearing a short coat was holding a skewer of meat, beside a rectangular stove, holding a palm fan, and grilling while fanning.

Several diners were sitting around a low table at the intersection, eating with oily mouths and drinking with red faces.

When Tongtian Sect Master walked to the intersection, he saw a spacious avenue that went straight from north to south.

The buildings on both sides of the road are row upon row and very neat.

A street lamp, unattended, hung on the tall iron utensils, shining brightly.

On the road, from time to time, there are instruments flashing with two headlights, whizzing in and whizzing away.

On both sides of the road, pine trees stand, flowers and plants are neat.

The Tongtian Sect Master looked at it and was greatly surprised.

"The mortal craftsmanship of this world is so ingenious?!" He looked at the roads, buildings, and plaques in front of him.

There are lights everywhere, and the night is like day.

Delicate and small things can be seen everywhere.

And those instruments whistling from time to time, galloping away from the road in front of them, even made the Tongtian Sect Master surprised.

It should be noted that the speed of these instruments is already comparable to the speed of many mortal monks Yukong.

Buzz!

Suddenly, a huge roar came from overhead.

Tongtian Sect Master raised his head and saw a huge strange bird flying through the air.

The wings of the strange bird spread out, pressing on the top of the head.

It looks like an ancient monster!
And under the belly of the strange bird, there is a light pole that flashes and disappears regularly.

Buzz!

The roar grew louder.

And Tongtian Sect Master finally discovered that this strange bird was a man-made thing.

Watching it slowly fall into the distance and disappear from sight, Tongtian Sect Master couldn't help licking his lips.

Fang Tiandi gave him a lot of surprises!
"Ordinary people can use foreign objects to roam the world without training!" He sighed: "It's really amazing!"

Although, in his eyes, the speed of the strange bird was a bit slow.

Hugh said to compare it with the demon gods in the ancient flood.

Even with many contemporary monsters, there is also a big gap.

It should be noted that among contemporary monsters, as long as they can successfully transform into shape, they can easily fly thousands of miles in a day and night.

But the mortals in this world, without relying on supernatural powers, purely use their ingenuity to create such creations, it is really amazing!

amazing!
........................

Chen Hong hummed a little tune and grilled skewers gracefully.

He's doing good business tonight!

I have sold almost 1000 yuan of things, and calculated the profit, I made several hundred.

And tonight's business peak is far from here.

At twelve o'clock, the overtime workers of several nearby companies leave work, and it is estimated that at least one or two thousand items can be sold!
In this way, you can earn thousands of dollars in one night!
After a month, it’s almost 10,000 to [-]. After deducting the rent, utilities and expenses, you can save more than [-]. With the savings in the past few years, you should be able to pay a down payment at the end of the year and own a home in this city!

Thinking like this, Chen Hong's drive is even more powerful!

The skewers are grilled and served to the guests.

Chen Hong's smoking addiction was committed.

He comfortably took out a cigarette from his pocket, and was about to light it when he saw Xu Ji, the little owner of a nearby convenience store, standing at the intersection, looking up at something.

Chen Hong laughed, picked up the cigarette case and walked over.

"Aggie, what are you looking at?" he asked, pulling out a cigarette from the cigarette case and passing it over.

Everyone is an old smoker.

They often smoke and chat together in the middle of the night.

However, today's Xu Ji is a little strange.

He turned his head and looked at Chen Hong.

Those eyes that were always listless in the past, as if they had not woken up from sleep, are now extraordinarily bright, like stars in the night sky.

…………

The Master Tongtian looked back at the mortal who appeared behind him.

The feeling in my heart is very subtle!
In his memory, this was the first time someone could appear behind him without him noticing.

Such a thing, even before the sermon, did not exist.

Pangu is orthodox, born holy!
Born to resonate with the Great Dao, obtain the blessings of heaven and earth, and enjoy the relics of Pangu.

From the day he was born, he was destined to preach.

Therefore, in heaven and earth, no one can appear around him without being noticed.

No one can know and calculate his mind.

just now……

A mortal, a mortal without supernatural powers and mana, appeared behind him in a grand manner, and he didn't notice it.

"As expected, I'm already a mortal body!" Tongtian Sect Master sighed in his heart.

And the name of that mortal also aroused the mind of Tongtian Sect Master.

"Aggie?" he thought. "Is it this body's name?"

"So, this body was indeed a mortal living in this world before..."

"But I don't know why, let me use his body to appear here..."

More thoughts then spread out.

So, an idea emerged in my heart.

"Who should replace my body?"

"A mortal in this flesh?"

With thoughts flying in his heart, Tongtian Sect Master looked at the 'cigarette' handed over by the mortal.

He shook his head and refused: "Thank you!"

Then, he carefully looked at the mortal in front of him.

This man is very stocky, he looks no more than seven feet tall, but he has big arms and a round waist.

It's just a pity...

It's all fat!
No bones, no strength.

"The human race in this world is really strange!" Tongtian Cult Master couldn't help thinking.

This is his body.

So does the person in front of you!

Fragile!

Yes!

Fragile!

Hugh said something about a demon, just a tiger or a leopard, or even a jackal, might be able to slaughter such a person easily.

Not only that, the mortal in front of him, in the eyes of Tongtian Sect Master, is like a sack full of holes.

This person is out of balance between yin and yang, so the liver and yang are hyperactive, the heart and blood are weak, and the meridians are blocked.

He just looked healthy.

In fact, the foundation has been shaken, and both qi and blood are deficient.

If things go on like this, after three or five years, I am afraid that I will be plagued by illnesses that will linger. paralysis.

At this stage, the disease has entered the bone marrow.

Unless a golden immortal descends to earth and uses supernatural powers to reshape the body and recreate the meridians, there is no cure for it!

Chen Hong was a little nervous when he saw this familiar smoker.

He put away the cigarette he handed out in embarrassment, and asked kindly, "Aji, what's wrong? Are you worried?"

As he said that, he put the cigarette in his mouth, picked up the lighter, lit the cigarette, took a beautiful puff, and exhaled a smoke ring as usual.

"Comfortable!" Chen Hong said cheerfully.

This is one of the few happy times of the day.

only……

Chen Hong looked up and saw the little convenience store owner who used to be acquainted with him, looking at him with a look of pity and lamentation.

It made him feel like when he was in school, smoking in the toilet with a few classmates, and being caught by the teacher.

Ashamed, scared, guilty...

He almost subconsciously threw the cigarette in his hand on the ground.

Then, he felt a little lost, so he could only smirk to cover up his behavior: "Your sister-in-law is always urging me to quit smoking these days, to prepare for having a child..."

"But I can't help it!"

"You also know that when you are addicted to smoking, you can't control your mouth..."

The Master Tongtian looked at this mortal and threw the 'cigarette' in his hand on the ground.

He nodded secretly: "It's not even hopeless!"

"The mind is also okay!"

Then he thought: "This person may have some fate with me!"

The matter of cause and effect is the most mysterious.

Now that he has fallen into the mortal world, he has no Taoist body and no mana, so he must be careful.

So he asked, "Do you really want to quit?"

"Of course!" Chen Hong laughed: "I'm 27 this year, and my family has been urging me to have a child..."

"But if I don't quit smoking, I'm worried that it will hinder the child!"

"But it's hard to quit smoking!"

The Tongtian Sect Master listened and secretly said: "This mortal is really interesting!"

The poison of the 'cigarette' is slow and fierce.

It is indeed possible to pass through the lungs, qi and blood, and contaminate the essence.

As a result, when the fetus that is conceived develops in the womb, that bit of innate aura is tainted.

A little carelessness is congenital hypoplasia, and there is a danger of premature death!
And this mortal listened to the tone, he knew that there was such a result, but he was still captured by this 'cigarette'.

Just like the logo on the cigarette box.

Smoking is harmful to health!

Others put the warning on the box.

Mortals seem to ignore the warning!
This made Tongtian sect master somewhat difficult to understand.

Fortunately, although it is difficult to understand the mentality of the mortals in this world.

However, back then, the Emperor Snail created humans.

He was also a bystander.

The mystery of the human body, in front of him, has no secrets.

Even if there is no mana now, all magical powers are lost.

He can still easily find many ways to get rid of the effects of the cigarette poison on mortals.

So, Tongtian Sect Master said, "If you really want to get rid of this 'tobacco' poison..."

"I have a way!"
