The Disciple’s Diligence Makes the Master Seem Lazy - Chapter 86

[Chapter 86 It’s raining today, let’s do it another day]

“Don’t move.” Li Xu said only two words, his voice was particularly wild and overbearing, An Zhiyu suddenly felt that her breathing became rapid.

An Zhiyu closed her eyes and didn’t speak, letting Li Xu do what he wanted.

Li Xu’s hand gently fell on her face, and felt it carefully. Except for the hot face, there was nothing abnormal, and the heat was probably because of himself.

Then he performed the first-grade Taoist method, the Clean Clothes Technique.

All the sweat on An Zhiyu’s body was completely eliminated, and then his hand was removed.

However, the operation just now.

Li Xu noticed that An Zhiyu seemed to have some problems with her body, but he couldn’t tell what the problem was. It was a very strange feeling.

“You sweat a lot, have you seen the pharmacist?” Li Xu sat back in the chair and asked.

“I have seen it, and the pharmacist said there is no problem.” An Zhiyu said softly.

“That’s good, but you really sweat a lot. This is not the first time I have found it. I will think about whether I can help you solve it when the time comes?”

Li Xu saw her sweating profusely many times.

Many times she suspected that she was doing this on purpose in front of him, but it turned out that she was really sweating a lot.

He suddenly remembered that he had picked up some stones that were warm in winter and cool in summer. He would make them into beads for her to wear.

“Thank you.” An Zhiyu’s face flushed, she shrank, hugged her knees, looked at Li Xu, and a bright smile appeared on the corners of her mouth.

“Nothing, I’m leaving.” Li Xu didn’t want to stay here, he felt that being here would disturb the two little girls.

“Master, you came here just to feel the pulse, that’s all.” Dahu asked.

“I was going to ask you if you want to practice Taoism?”

Dahu shook her head and said, “Forget it, it’s raining today, let’s do it another day.”

There is no rush to practice Taoism, let’s talk about it another day.

Li Xu smiled and said, “Okay, I won’t disturb you. Have fun by yourselves.”

He was about to leave when Daxu hurriedly asked, “Master, it’s raining now and there’s nothing we can do. How about we chat and talk?”

“What do you want to talk about?”

Li Xu looked at Daxu and An Zhiyu. Do he and the two little girls have any common topics? If so, they could chat and get to know each other.

“Whatever.” An Zhiyu said.

“Master, haven’t you lived for two hundred years? How did you spend these two hundred years?”

“Didn’t you live for another three hundred years?” Li Xu looked at little Daxu. He wanted to ask her how she spent her time.

“Master, you will have no friends if you do this. I’ll ask you a question first, and you have to answer mine first.”

“Okay, what do you want to ask?” Li Xu kicked off the chair, retreated to the table, took out a wine gourd, and said while drinking:

“I’m free today, and I’ll answer any questions.”

“Tell me your story.” Da’er held her chin with great interest, wanting to know more about the master, while An Zhiyu leaned on the edge of the bed, swinging her big white legs, also full of interest.

“How about I tell you a story about Hou Yi shooting the sun?”

“That’s a myth, I want to hear your story.”

Li Xu said: “It’s a long story, but where should I start?”

Da’er said: “Master, I have plenty of time, you can talk slowly, from the beginning.”

“That’s far away.” Li Xu took a sip of wine and said slowly: “I once went to a place where there was no cultivation and no Taoism in that world. There were tall buildings and the pace of life was very fast.”

He was referring to the earth, the world before he came to this world.

He used to be a 996 programmer.

Although he worked from 9 to 6, he had to work overtime every day. Sometimes he got off work at 10 pm, and sometimes he got off work at midnight.

He never got off work earlier than 9 pm.

The highest intensity was when a company project was launched. He worked overtime at the company for three consecutive days without going home. It seemed that he had only worked for two or three years, but he was exploited by his boss at such a high intensity that he finally collapsed and never woke up again, and came to this world.

Since coming here, he has made up his mind to change to a lazy lifestyle, sleep until he wakes up naturally, and not work if he can.

He never thought about immortality. If he wanted to live a long life, he just wanted to be ordinary and die when he got old, but he found something wrong with him when he was alive.

No matter how time changes, one year, ten years, dozens of years, hundreds of years, his appearance remains unchanged, and the power in his body is getting stronger and stronger.

This is something he never dreamed of.

“There are tall buildings everywhere, and the pace of life is very fast. What’s next?” Dalu and An Zhiyu were waiting for Li Xu to speak, but he never spoke, just drinking, as if he was reminiscing.

“That was just a dream I had.” Li Xu smiled.

He would not say a word about the Earth. This matter was too big. It seemed that he had to seal this memory in his sea of consciousness so that he would not miss it again. When he was about to do it, he glanced at his sea of consciousness and saw five sealed memory balls.

He sealed them all by himself.

After thinking it over again and again, he really couldn’t bear to seal the memory of the Earth. Although it was not beautiful, it was very precious. He decided

to keep it.

Li Xu looked at them and said, “I really don’t have any wonderful stories. I basically spend my time sleeping and eating. I’ll just tell you a story from a few years ago. Back

then, the three academies jointly designed the secret realm trial. I saw that they were in urgent need of a secret realm guardian, so I went there, and then I…”

This story was about the detailed process of how he got the five-tailed beast.

They listened with great interest.

After that, Daxu asked, “Master, the five-tailed beast is of the fifth rank. If you hadn’t taken action, would all the people from the three academies have died?”

“It’s not that exaggerated. It’s just that the secret realm trialists died.” Li Xu said.

“How did the five-tailed beast get in?” An Zhiyu felt something was wrong. “These are all very scary mythical beasts, and they usually only move in the Mountain and Sea Realm.”

“Indeed.” Li Xu nodded.

The Mountain and Sea Realm is an extremely terrifying beast, and the place where the mythical beasts live. Generally, they rarely come out. It is a relatively terrifying area in Daozhou.

At the beginning, the gods drove all these extremely vicious beasts and mythical beasts to a wilderness in Daozhou, and later this place was called the Mountain and Sea Realm.

After the gods fell, there were often riots in the Mountain and Sea Realm, but they could not get out at all.

The Mountain and Sea Realm is a prison, a prison for trapping fierce beasts.

“No matter how the five-tailed beast got in, Master, continue to tell your other stories.” Da’er looked at him eagerly.

“I don’t want to tell stories. If you have any questions, ask me. If you don’t ask me, I’ll leave.” Li Xu wanted to go back to sleep.

An Zhiyu suddenly had a question in her mind, and looked at Li Xu nervously: “You should not have a wife, right?”

Why did you ask such a question as soon as you opened your mouth.

Da’er also looked at her in shock. This question is a bit tricky. Who would ask this question?

Li Xu shook his head: “No.”

Where did he get a wife? No matter on Earth or here, he didn’t have one.

When he was on Earth, he made a system program. The core selling point was to help men find their other half, but he himself was not very good at interpersonal communication and couldn’t find a girlfriend at all, okay?

Hearing Li Xu say no, An Zhiyu’s eyes lit up, and he almost wanted to say “Do you mind having a wife?”, but it was too direct, so he would talk about it later.

Thanks to Qinghe Daoren, Jiji A, Chen’s husband, You Remember It, Xiangxiang’s letter, etc. for the reward. Thank you very much, Pen Core.
