Chapter 214 Master Shi Jian's Commission
Until he returned to the backyard of Wanning Palace and sat down in the front hall.
The old foreigner brought three cups of tea.
Shi Jian took a sip and then said, "Junior brother, do you remember what you said to me before you went into seclusion?"
Uncle Jiu was stunned. "What did I say before I went into seclusion? Senior Brother, let me think about it carefully."
There have been a lot of things going on recently, and Uncle Jiu really can’t remember what happened a month or two ago.
Seeing that Uncle Jiu was still in deep thought, Shi Jian reminded him.
"It's about my disciple Shao Jian. Think about it carefully."
After hearing what Shi Jian said, Uncle Jiu remembered.
When Lu Li went to the underworld, he did tell Shi Jian that he wanted Lu Li to take care of Shi Shaojian.
Master Qin was also present at the time.
"I remember now, Big Brother, do you mean that you want Ali to help you arrange something for Shao Jian now?"
With Shi Shaojian?
Lu Li was confused as he listened to this, wondering how it was related to Shi Shaojian.
Uncle Jiu saw that Lu Li didn't know yet, so he explained it to him.
“When you went to the underworld, I saw that your uncle was worried about disciplining Shao Jian.
So I gave him a suggestion and said that when you come back, I will take him out to explore the world.
First, it can give him some experience, and second, it shows that he really admires you, and he will behave better when he is with you."
"Can Master Uncle rest assured that I can take Senior Brother Shaojian to practice?"
Lu Li looked at Shi Jian. He knew that Shi Shaojian was not only Shi Jian's apprentice.
He is also his only son.
In the movie, it was because of this kid that Uncle Jiu and Shi Jian ended up killing each other.
Now I have to take him out to gain experience, just in case something happens.
This means another life-and-death battle, and Maoshan has just breathed a sigh of relief.
I can't stand this kind of trouble.
"Go ahead and train him. As long as you keep him alive, even if he becomes disabled, Master Uncle won't blame you."
Shi Jian said this with a firm attitude, with lightning flashing in his eyes.
When Lu Li saw him like this, he knew that he was serious.
"Master, I have agreed. I may have to go to Yun Mansion after the competition. Please let me follow you this time.
But there may be certain risks, and you may even meet people from the Zi Luo Sha Palace.
Uncle and senior brothers must consider this carefully.
Just make the decision before I go.”
Although Shi Shaojian's cultivation level is nothing compared to his own, fortunately he is also in the middle stage of Qi training.
I might have to go to the tomb again this time if I go to kill those Fuso people.
With Shi Shaojian's ability, he can still deal with some little ghosts and monsters.
It's like having a helper.
“No need to go back and think about it, Master Uncle can promise you now.
Just take him with you when you leave."
Lu Lixin said, "Good guy, you don't even need to ask your son whether he is willing or not."
If Shi Shaojian were here, he would definitely shout, "Is there any human rights and freedom left?"
Unfortunately, even if he were here, he couldn't make the decision.
After a set of Lightning and Thunder Fists, his father said whatever he wanted.
Now that the matter was settled, Shi Jian felt relieved.
Shi Shaojian's matter has been weighing on his mind for several years.
This useless guy, in his opinion, is good for nothing except being vain.
A few years ago, I was also bewitched by a ghost because of my guilt towards my lover.
Spoil this kid.
When I came to my senses and tried to discipline him, I realized it was already a little too late.
On the contrary, Shi Shaojian became more and more rebellious towards him.
I act like I will do whatever I want as long as you don't kill me.
Fortunately, he is kind-hearted and has not gotten into any trouble since he came to the mountain.
Nor is he obsessed with women.
It means that you are not serious about cultivation.
This time, he gritted his teeth and made up his mind to let him follow Lu Li to exercise.
Shi Jian is still very confident in Lu Li's character and ability.
What else could Lu Li say but to agree.
The three of them drank tea and started talking about the Taoist competition.
In fact, Lu Li never understood what the point of this kind of competition was.
And it was held on such a grand scale.
Shi Jian smiled and replied, "To put it bluntly, the Dao Sect Competition is to see if there are any outstanding people in the next generation.
We can also use this opportunity to promote Taoism.
Although we don’t care that much about believers.
But we also have to live, have food and clothing, and without believers we would have no business and no money.
So it is necessary to rally people’s hearts occasionally.”
"Besides, we can also take advantage of the situation to suppress foreign religions.
Tell them that we, the Dao Sect, are not to be trifled with."
Uncle Jiu continued what Shi Jian said.
So that's how it is. In Lu Li's opinion, Buddhism used to use Buddhist disciples for propaganda.
The Taoist sect was unwilling to be outdone, so it created the number one Taoist figure to fight back.
Other Taoist sects helped spread the name.
Buddhism has become more low-key now, but this tradition has been preserved.
Otherwise, how could Master Uncle Shi Jian’s name be so famous.
Even people in Nanyang know that there is a ruthless man in Maoshan who is good at using thunder.
"I don't think this session will be held, Xiao Li stood on the stage.
See who dares to come up.
Those old guys from other sects just like to seek some false fame.
I feel uncomfortable seeing our Maoshan becoming so powerful.
So do some weird things."
Shi Jian said indignantly.
"Master, although I am not participating, everyone knows who is the real number one in Taoism."
A confident smile appeared on Lu Li's face.
"Well said! You are usually too good-tempered and don't have that domineering attitude.
In my opinion, we who practice Taoism should only believe in ourselves.
Seize the fortune of heaven and earth to achieve personal success.
How can you have the resources to practice if you don't fight for it?
Back then, your uncle and I participated in the Taoist competition.
Finally, he stood on the stage and shouted loudly, "Who wants to fight?"
The younger generation of disciples below all lowered their heads. "
Shi Jian still gets excited when he recalls the scene.
I wish I could find someone to fight me for another hundred rounds.
"Big Brother, please don't lead Ali astray.
He’s doing fine the way he is now.”
Uncle Jiu quickly stopped Shi Jian, fearing that he would say something that would cause him to be struck by lightning.
Wow, even words like "seizing the fortune of heaven and earth" came out.
Ask our ancestor if he dares to say this?
Shi Jian’s cultivation level is low, which means he can’t even sense a few words from the Heavenly Dao.
For powerful people like the ancestors, every word they say will be noticed by the Heaven.
If you dare to talk about stealing things from heaven and earth, God will probably strike you with a thunderbolt.
I'll chop your ass open first.
Let you know who is the boss.
Shi Jian also knew that he had said too much and let out all his true feelings.
He quickly picked up the tea and took a few sips to cover it up.
But Lu Li, who was watching from the side, couldn't help laughing, and he just understood it in his heart.
You can't tell.
Having lived two lives, Lu Li naturally knew that the world of cultivation was all about competing for resources and opportunities.
The weak will become weaker, and the strong will become stronger.
The only way to make a comeback is to jump off a cliff or come across some quick-learning secret manual of magical skills left behind by a deceased predecessor.
Or maybe he just ate a fruit when he went out and his cultivation soared to the Nascent Soul stage.
Otherwise, the resources are basically controlled by the big sects.
Especially in this Dharma-Ending Age.
Those independent cultivators at most occupied a small village or town and barely made a living.
When you are in danger, there is no one to help you.
It’s not like Uncle Jiu who directly called dozens of fellow disciples when something happened.
But we who practice Taoism usually go there when China is in trouble.
In Taoism's view, after I rob you of something, I will leave something for you.
But if you come to steal my things, I can’t tolerate that.
"A-Li, your master uncle is right about one thing.
Practicing Taoism is indeed a struggle.
But everyone was scrambling to cross the river.
Once you cross the river you will shed your mortal body.
But it’s so difficult!”
Uncle Jiu sighed. When he was in the Foundation Establishment Stage, he was eager to reach the Golden Core Stage, but when he reached the Golden Core Stage, he was looking forward to the Nascent Soul Stage.
The Nascent Soul stage is too far away.
It was so far that even a chosen one like Uncle Jiu felt despair.
