I am practicing Shushan Taoism in the realm of cultivating immortals

Chapter 22
Although the two little people have become stronger and stronger after practicing the foundation-building method, they are still so tired that they sweat on their foreheads after filling a large bucket of water.

Wang Chong didn't stop him either, and after the two of them fetched water, they also washed and bathed in peace of mind, not wasting the filial piety of the two disciples.

"After you left, teacher, a person came down from the mountain. They clearly promised to be exempted from corvee and tax for one year, but they went back on their promises and asked the village to send people to mine. Grandpa went to seek accommodation from an immortal master, but he was seriously injured.

The elder sister’s father didn’t work in mining at the beginning. All these years, he survived only by mobilizing the help of his grandfather in the village. The elder sister was overwhelmed with anger, but her own strength was weak, so she practiced the “Little Five Elements Refining Qi Jue”. "

While holding the vegetables, Wang Chong looked at the cautious appearance of the two children, Li Daocheng and Li Yufu, somehow reminded him of how he was when he was in Mount Wutai.

When he crossed Mount Shu, it was the time when the world was in chaos at the end of Yuan Dynasty and the beginning of Ming Dynasty. It was Patriarch Taiyi who rescued him from the chaos and brought him back to Mount Wutai.

"At the beginning, I was so respectful and afraid of the patriarch. I was cautious in everything I did. Not only did the patriarch not blame him, but he knew how to guide him patiently."

Thinking of Patriarch Taiyi and the more than 100 years of carefree time in Mount Wutai, Wang Chong couldn't help feeling a little softer in his heart.

"Disciple. Wrong, please don't drive me away, teacher."

Outside the room, Li Xiuling had been kneeling for more than two hours, her voice changed from clear and crisp at the beginning to hoarse now.

Even if he has already cultivated his true energy and stepped into the door of cultivation, but after all, the time is still short, and the foundation has not yet been completed, and the body has not yet transformed, so it can only be regarded as a mortal body.

Just like a child walking with a sledgehammer heavier than himself.

After more than two hours and hundreds of kowtows, Li Xiuling no longer had the vigor she had just now, her forehead was cracked, her hairpins were scattered, and she kowtowed in a daze. The reason why she can still persist now has nothing to do with perseverance, it's just inertia.

Wang Chong thought of Patriarch Taiyi, and his heart softened a little. He made a lot of mistakes at the beginning, but Patriarch Taiyi never gave up on himself.

Why do you have to be so harsh on yourself?
But building the foundation is the test that Wang Chong left for them. No matter what the reason is, since Li Xiuling can't bear the momentary anger, it is really impossible to be his disciple.

"Let her in."

Hearing that Wang Chong finally let go, Li Daocheng was overjoyed, but he still tried his best to suppress it, and saluted respectfully.

"is teacher."

The door opened, and seeing Li Daocheng, Li Xiuling was still habitually preparing to kowtow, Li Daocheng quickly grabbed her.

"Senior sister, the teacher is calling you, come in quickly."

But Li Xiuling didn't seem to hear it, and still wanted to knock again. Wang Chong inside saw his appearance, and immediately knew why, and immediately shouted:

"Pindao has already said that it will take seven or eight days to go quickly, and half a month if you are slow, and you will return. You are so big-hearted, you can't bear any grievances, and you have ignored the words of the poor Taoist.

Now it's just a little setback, and you want to spoil yourself, so you can knock it off!Seeing that he was knocked to death, Pindao might be a little moved. "

Wang Chong's words were so serious that Li Xiuling seemed to have been hit hard, and her eyes turned from chaotic to clear.

"Teacher, I was wrong, please don't drive me away."

Li Yufu has both parents. Although life is not good, and his younger brother was taken away by the fairy on the mountain, in general, life can actually go on.

But Li Xiuling and Li Daocheng are different. One lost his father when he was young, and was brought up by his mother alone. The elders in the same village naturally knew the hard work of the two mothers and helped them from time to time.

But those of the same age did not have such empathy. Li Xiuling was bullied countless times since she was a child, and gradually her personality became a little extreme, and she couldn't stand it.

Because she knew that the more she backed down, the more the other party would push forward.

Li Xiuling was like this, but Li Daocheng was different. Both his parents were away. When he was very young, he ate at one house and another. He felt warmth and had eyes.

But he knew that without these uncles and uncles, he would not be able to live now, so although he was sensitive, he was always grateful.

In addition, she suffered more hardships than Li Xiuling, so her mind matured prematurely.

But no matter what, the past six months have been the happiest days of their lives. Wang Chong taught them knowledge, and helped them choose their names, and accepted them as disciples.

Kindness, majesty, admiration, admiration, everything makes the two vaguely overlap Wang Chong with the image of their imaginary father.

This is also the reason why Li Xiuling collapsed after being expelled by Wang Chong.

Li Xiuling kowtowed and pleaded guilty just now, but it was actually out of fear of being chased away by Wang Chong, and she didn't think she did something wrong, so even though she kowtowed fiercely and said 'wrong', she didn't shed a single tear, and she was very stubborn all the time.

But Wang Chong's drink broke through the protective packaging she had given herself since she was a child, and she burst into tears instantly, crying bitterly.He couldn't keep that stubborn look any longer.

Wang Chong sighed and waved towards her.

Li Xiuling didn't get up either, and crawled into the room crying, knelt down in front of Wang Chong and cried:
"Teacher, I was wrong, please don't drive me away."

Patting her on the head, Wang Chong sighed:

"A person who cultivates the Tao, if it is about the way, should be brave and diligent, and dare to draw his sword to fight for a broad road for himself.

But it's just a trivial matter, so you don't care about your own path, and you want to fight fiercely with others.

How is this the mentality of a cultivator? "

The reason why Wang Chong took risks everywhere in his previous life was because he had to do so. If he didn't steal the Taoism of various sects to solve the fundamental problem of magic, he could only be refined into a projection incarnation by the Son of Heaven.

In fact, he himself is not a master of escape. Before he practiced magic, he had always looked down on these external objects that did not involve his own path.

Even those seniors who have no cause and effect secret treasures, he didn't think about it at all. He only has a self-made Bailing Slashing Immortal Sword on his body.

Later, he was inexplicably drawn into the calamity, and he was never depressed. Although the means were not glorious, but this Dao Xin, who still dared to fight and draw the sword in the face of difficulties and the supreme existence, was the real support for him to become a god.

Not being dragged by trivial matters, but daring to fight bravely for one's own path, this is the mentality that a true cultivator should have.

"Teacher, disciple. I really know I was wrong."

Li Xiuling was choked with crying, and seemed to have the intention of sincere repentance, so Wang Chong stopped talking, patted her on the shoulder to make her stand up, and said:

"Originally, the poor Taoists calculated that the Li family would undergo a major change within three years, and at that time the Five Elements Mountain could be calmly taken down as the foundation of the school, but with your messing up, the death of the ancestors of the Li family should be on the poor Taoist body again.

But if it is really going to be robbed under the hands of Pindao, and Pindao has taken over the foundation, it is really not good to spread the word.

This matter is a calamity caused by you, so it is up to you to calm it down. "

After finishing speaking, he took out a jade gourd from his sleeve and handed it to Li Xiuling, saying:

"This is a gourd Qianyuan Bone Replacement Pill, with 36 pills in total. If you take one pill every day, after 36 days, you will be able to get rid of the mortal womb, and your true energy will be greatly improved.

Pindao will go to fight against the ancestors of the Li family and bet with half of the Five Elements Mountain.

Remember, if the matter of the poor dao is broken again, you will never come to see the poor dao again. "

Wang Chong said harshly, Li Xiuling quickly wiped away her tears, and said firmly:
"Disciple, never let the teacher down again."

Wang Chong's expression softened a little, and he waved his hands to make the three of them retreat.

The three bowed respectfully and slowly exited the room.

After waiting for no one, Wang Chong snorted coldly and said to the sky:
"If you dare to plot against the poor, believe it or not, the poor will make you into a plaything in the future?"

Accustomed to seeing strong winds and waves, Wang Chong has no sense of awe for this kind of heavenly way with only a vague consciousness.
