All Heavens: Achieving Great Supernatural Powers from the Journey to the West.

Chapter 13 Apprenticeship to Bodhi

"Watching chess players playing badly, cutting wood, walking slowly at the mouth of the valley beside the clouds. Selling firewood and drinking wine, laughing wildly to express my love. The path is high in autumn, and I sleep with pine roots against the moon. I recognize the old forest, climb the cliffs and cross the ridges, and break with an ax Withered vines. Harvested into a load, three liters of rice are easily sold in the Xingge market. There is no competition among the seeds, and the current price is average. No scheming, no honor or disgrace, and a life of indifference. Where we meet, it is either an immortal or a Tao, sit quietly and talk about Huang court."

The singing sounded from far away to near, and Xu Xuanzhi walked towards the direction of the sound like a ghost.

I saw a woodcutter wearing a bamboo hat, a raincoat, and straw shoes, holding a pure steel ax, loosening and splitting dead wood.

The other party muttered something while cutting dead wood, as if traveling outside the world, sitting quietly and talking about Huang Ting's great virtues and true cultivation.

The simple chopping action is like a wonderful truth in the world in the opponent's hands, which makes people mesmerized. Even the high-grade Heavenly Immortal Art in Xu Xuanzhi's body couldn't help but move a little faster.

Time passed like this hour by hour, and soon it was from noon to afternoon. The woodcutter seemed to be quite tired after chopping three loads of firewood, so he called to Xu Xunzhi who was watching.

"The next generation will be the next generation. I have to chop four loads of firewood to go home today. It's getting late now. Can you help me chop one load?"

The woodcutter's tone was detached, and just by listening, you had the illusion that you were listening to someone's sermon.

Subconsciously, Xu Xuanzhi shook his head.

"No."

"Oh? You are such a lazy young man. You have been watching me chopping trees for a long time. You see that I am tired. Why don't you come and help me?" the woodcutter said angrily.

Xu Xuanzhi shook his head again and said: "You usually carry only two loads of firewood to the sky. Now that you see me beside you, you have chopped more than three loads. Now you want to continue. If I help you, will you carry the load of firewood again? If I don't agree, will you blame me again?"

"Rather than make you blame me half way, it's better to give up as soon as possible. Besides, I don't lack the money, what can you do to me?"

"Haha! You young man." When the woodcutter heard this, he laughed loudly, shook his head and asked, "How do you know I can't give you anything?"

Then, he heard Xu Xuanzhi's answer: "Yes, yes, but if you don't make a promise, how do I know if you will give it?"

At this time, the woodcutter didn't know that the young man in purple shirt had recognized him.

If you have two points of intelligence and can express yourself like this in an illusion, you will be able to create something.

"In that case, why don't you come to chop wood?" the woodcutter said.

Xu Xuanzhi was overjoyed. He took a few steps forward, took the pure steel ax from the woodcutter's hand, and chopped down several dead trees around him.

At this time, the woodcutter came to the high stone where Xu Xuanzhi had just meditated and fell asleep slowly.

Bang. Bang. Bang.

Not long after, a load of firewood was cut and bundled. But Xu Xuanzhi's hands haven't stopped yet.

One load, two loads, three loads. Five loads and nine loads!

When the woodcutter opened his eyes, nine loads of firewood were tied neatly and overlapped on Xu Xuanzhi's shoulders.

"You naughty guy!" The woodcutter saw Xu Xuanzhi's shameless look, laughed and scolded him, turned around, and transformed into his ancestor's appearance with white hair and long beard. There is a poem to prove it:

The Great Enlightened Golden Immortal has an innocent appearance, and the Western Miaoxiang Patriarch Bodhi.The three elements of immortality and immortality, full energy and infinite compassion.The emptiness and stillness will naturally change, just like the original nature allows it to happen.He lives the same life as heaven and has a solemn body, the Great Master Mingxin who has endured many calamities.

With such a virtuous and immortal appearance, how could Xu Xuanzhi still not know the identity of the other party?

This is Bodhi Patriarch, a great virtuous and true cultivator of the Three Religions. Xiao himself transformed into the "Six Ears" and obtained his wonderful magic. He came here to test himself and accepted him as his disciple!

Without saying a word, Xu Xuanzhi bowed his head without hesitation, and the nine loads of firewood on his shoulders disappeared.

"Xu Xuanzhi pays homage to Master!"

"Xuanzhi? Wonderful, it is really wonderful." The Patriarch smiled, sat on a high stone and asked: "I don't know your exact foot, how can you turn into the 'six ears', and how can you get my wonderful method. I I thought you were only two points smart before, but now it seems you are seven points smart."

Hearing the ancestor's praise, Xu Xuanzhi felt happy in his heart. Although when he was chopping firewood just now, he seemed to be in a daze and did not think about the identity of the other party, but now how could he not know that he was the great virtuous and true cultivator who gave Sun Monkey the supreme magic, Patriarch Bodhi? "However, although your understanding is high, your qualifications are low. If you want to seek immortality and enlightenment, you have to hold on to yourself and practice hard day by day."

"But immortality is easy to obtain, only three disasters can save you"

After speaking, the Patriarch shook his head.

How could Xu Xuanzhi not know that this was the Patriarch playing tricks?

Then he kowtowed and asked the Patriarch for help: "I hope the Patriarch will take pity on me and give me the method to avoid the three disasters and the magical power to protect myself."

After saying that, he kowtowed twice. Learn from a teacher and don't be shabby.

"You little brat." The Patriarch smiled and asked, "My method of avoiding the three disasters is nothing more than a method of transformation. There are Tiangang Numbers and Earthly Evil Numbers. Which one do you want?"

"All the disciples want to learn!" Xu Xuanzhi said shamelessly.

"You idiot! Which kind of magical powers do you want to learn?" asked the Patriarch.

"The disciples will learn as much as the master teaches! No complaints!" Xu Xuanzhi replied.

Hearing this, the Patriarch laughed again and scolded: "You have a bigger appetite than that monkey. Since you want it, I will teach you everything. But how much can you learn in one month?" , it all depends on your own ability.”

"Thank you Master!"

During the first month, Xu Xuanzhi continued to make progress under the guidance of his ancestor, and several other group members were also going through their own things.

For example, Xiao Yan, although he recovered to the fourth level of Dou Qi within a few days, he is still a weakling in Dou Qi Continent. However, unlike the original work, this time Xiao Yan is full of confidence and is expected to return to the realm of a fighter within half a year! Xiao Zhan was overjoyed when he learned that Xiao Yan had begun to recover.

As for Nalan Yanran's breakup of the engagement, it still happened.

Xu Xuanzhi also took the time to comfort Xiao Yan, but he had a great opportunity at this time and could not go to help Xiao Yan, so he could only comfort him in the group.

Thirty years in Hedong and thirty years in Hexi, it still happened. And the three-year agreement has not fallen through.

Although the trajectory of fate is different, some of the events that should have occurred have not disappeared.

As for Luo Feng, he failed the college entrance examination and suddenly fainted in the examination room. However, his strength has increased a bit, which is a blessing in disguise.

With everyone's comfort, he planned to take the 'quasi-martial artist' exam at the Extreme Martial Arts Hall.

Fang Han had already met Bai Haichan and obtained the Nine Apertures Golden Pill and the Jiao Fu Huangquan Picture, but he had not yet been selected to go to the Yuhua Sect, one of the ten gates of the Immortal Way. He didn't tell the other group members about his adventure, but only had a secret private chat with Xu Xunzhi.

Then there is Ye Fan.

During this period of time, he experienced a class reunion, visited the Jade Emperor Summit of Mount Tai, met the Nine Dragons Pulling the Coffin, and was taken to Yinghuo. According to Ye Fan, if it hadn't been for the medical stone Xu Xuanzhi gave him, he might have really died. Died in that huge copper coffin.

In the past few days, Tang San frequently posted photos of a beautiful little girl to show off in the group, saying that she was his good sister.
