You cultivate immortality, I cultivate merit

The next day, Master Qijun's companion still insisted on leaving the capital, and Master Qijun escorted him to the city gate.

After he left the city gate, he said to Master Qijun: "Brother, Wanyu has a willful and fierce temper. You can't act according to her temper in the future."

Master Qijun didn't like to hear such words, and after that Master said it, he only treated it as his last bit of sincerity.

On this day, Master Qijun came to the yard again to look for his brothers Qiyuan and Xia Yu. Shi Xiaoliu said that none of the elders had ever returned home.

Wanyu was imprisoned in the courtyard by Master Qijun. After he returned, he said to Wanyu: "I sent your uncle out of the city gate today. I felt something was wrong at the city gate. Fortunately, we did not go out of the city today."

Wanyu pouted and said: "Master, you said that Brother Xia Yu is in a temple outside the city. Why don't we go to the temple outside the city to stay for a while?"

Master Qijun was not confused all the time. He looked at Wanyu and sighed: "Wanyu, we cultivators are too stubborn and can easily attract inner demons."

Wanyu lowered his head: "Before I entered the sect, my father-in-law and mother-in-law told me about my marriage to Xia Yu. If I can't get married to Xia Yu, I can't live up to my father-in-law and mother-in-law's trust."

Master Qijun felt that the person who tied the bell must untie it: "Wanyu, when we leave the capital this time, we will go to your hometown. You just happen to spend some time with your father and mother."

Wanyu suddenly became happy: "Okay, but before I leave, I still want to talk to Xia Yu."

Master Qi Jun sighed: "You are too stubborn towards him."

Wanyu smiled shyly: "Brother Xia Yu took good care of me after I entered the sect."

In the mountain temple, Brother Qiyuan and Xia Yu followed the monks to get up early to do their homework. Xia Yu initially recited the scriptures in a low voice, and then followed the monks in reciting the scriptures loudly.

The voices of the people were harmonious and the manners were uniform.

The body should be solemn and solemn, the mouth should recite it thoroughly, and the mind should be attentive and unwavering.

Xia Yu became more and more focused as he reached the back. He had no distracting thoughts, but felt extremely comfortable both physically and mentally.

Afterwards, Xia Yu shared her feelings with brother Qi Yuan. The two brothers exchanged glances and quickly left the mountain in search of the presiding monk.

After the brothers Qi Yuan and Xia Yu returned, Shi Xiaoliu told them the news that Qi Jun had arrived.

After hearing this, Master Qiyuan was surprised and said, "Xiao Liu, did he tell you that he wanted to find us for something?"

Shi Xiaoliu shook his head, and Master Qiyuan felt much more at ease. He said to Master Qicheng, "If Brother Jun really needs something, he will come back soon."

On this day, Master Decheng and Master Shanzheng did not come back, and Master Qijun did not come again.

At night, the lanterns outside the courtyard gate swayed in the wind, and Brother Qiyuan sat and talked leisurely in the backyard.

In the front yard, after Xia Yu shared what he saw in the temple with Shi Xiaoliu and Shi Zelan, Shi Xiaoliu and Shi Zelan looked at him: "No wonder you guys came back today."

Xia Yu immediately laughed: "When I chanted sutras, I was indeed infected by the monks, but I will not become a Buddhist in the future."

Shi Xiaoliu breathed a sigh of relief and said to him: "You and I will get married in the future."

Xia Yu turned to look at Shi Zelan: "Sister Lan will also get married in the future."

Shi Zelan immediately shook his head and said: "I will not get married, at least before I ascend, I have no intention of getting married."

Xia Yu pointed her thumb at Shi Zelan: "You have lofty ambitions. When you ascend, will you still consider getting married?"

Shi Zelan couldn't help laughing: "I don't know about things that are too far away."

Xia Yu quickly told the Shi Xiaoliu brothers and sisters about the excitement of the Cuju final: "The Sixth Young Master of the General Mansion scored goals one after another. The people watching at the time never stopped cheering."

Shi Xiaoliu and Shi Zelan immediately said that they would go to the teahouse tomorrow to hear Mr. Shu tell the story about the Cuju competition. "I will go to the teahouse with you tomorrow. The storyteller will definitely tell a story much better than me."

"Of course, others rely on storytelling to support their families."

The conversation between the three became more and more relaxed. Xia Yu said with a smile: "After the new year, many scholars will come to the capital."

"Yes, you can meet many handsome gentlemen."

Shi Zelan laughed when he heard this: "Xia Yu, Xiaoliu, we will sit in the teahouse and admire the scholar's grace."

"I heard that there are many reading gatherings for scholars. Xiaoliu and I can attend them once or twice."

Shi Zelan looked at them enviously: "It's a pity that I can't go with you."

Shi Xiaoliu smiled and said, "You can also dress up as a scholar and go with us."

Shi Zelan shook his head: "It still doesn't work. I'll make an appointment with Xiao Yingzi to meet some scholars on the street."

The next day, when Shi Xiaoliu and Shi Zelan got up early to go out, Xia Yu hurried over.

"I was a little flustered last night, so I concentrated for a long time and went to bed late."

Shi Xiaoliu and Shi Zelan looked at his face. They couldn't see anything wrong with Xia Yu's face, so the three of them walked outside with calm expressions.

On the way, he met a young man who was carrying water. He very enthusiastically asked where the three of them were going.
Shi Xiaoliu smiled and said: "Brother Qi, let's go to the teahouse to listen to stories. This time the storyteller should be able to talk about the cuju competition, right?"

"Yes. The storyteller at the teahouse in the south tells good stories. Come back and tell us about it after you listen."

"Ok."

At the mouth of the well, they separated from the water carriers, and the three decided to go south.

When they arrived at the teahouse, they thought they were early arrivals, but when they entered the lobby, they found that it was already packed.

They chose a quiet place to sit down, called the waiter to order tea, and ordered plain cakes to go with the tea.

The storyteller hasn't come yet, but the people drinking tea in the teahouse are already discussing the top performers of each team in the Cuju competition.

"The blue team is most unfortunate. I know that guy who usually scores goals very well, but he didn't find any chance to score that day."

"The blue team didn't lose unfairly, and the red team didn't lose unfairly until the next day. They had already competed the day before, so they were naturally tired the next day."

"The third day of the competition is the most exciting, and the team of the military attache's sons is the most outstanding."

“The fourth day of competition was the most exciting, I think it was much more intense than the last day.”

"Pah, the last day is the most exciting."

The tea cup slammed on the table. When the waiter came to refill the tea, he smiled and said to the guest: "Uncle, drink tea and calm down."

"So, waiter, can you tell me which day's game was the most exciting?"

The tea waiter looked at the customer with a sad face: "Sir, how can I, a waiter in the shop, be qualified to watch the cuju competition?"

The tea waiter took the kettle and walked away quickly. If he didn't go away, he was worried that the guest would be in a bad mood and get angry at him. (End of chapter)
