Chapter 3 The Way Forward
Jing Hua was mentally prepared before, but after learning that he had decided in the vegetarian school, he was no longer confused. He heard the other party mention the "Red Flame Dark Demon", and he had just seen the corpse at the auction, so he couldn't help but feel a little strange.
"Master Ji, what happened to the 'Red Flame Dark Demon'? I just saw the remains in the 'Yingtian Pavilion', and it seemed to be of great value..."
Ji Xiu'an forced a smile and said, "It's not surprising that the remains of the Five-Turn Demon are more expensive, not to mention that the other party has surpassed the level... It is rumored that the 'Red Flame Dark Demon' was killed is not the original body, but the incarnation projected by a demon god from the outside world. There are too many such rumors, and all kinds of strange things are not to be believed..."
He seemed unwilling to say more about this and quickly turned his mind.
"... Jinghua, since there is a controversy among the people, it is meaningless to bother with him. You are still young and cannot go further in the veterinary, but your identity as a guest minister is not hindered. The guest minister in this veterinary is very free. It is better to find a sect to become a disciple as soon as possible to prepare for your future practice..."
Jing Hua bowed to the teachings, chatted with Ji Xiu'an for a few more words, then stood up and said goodbye, leaving "Yayuan".
"well......"
Ji Xiu'an watched the other party leave and sighed softly. The young man was not arrogant or impatient, and was in moderation. He heard that he had punished him in the vegetarian room, but he did not change his color or lose his etiquette. All of the above are very valuable qualities and are not common in low-level worship.
Unfortunately, some idiot made a big fuss and used a few irrelevant letters to talk about the matter, which ruined a talent in the "new generation". The faction in Liyue City was short of follow-up, and many plans died as a result, so they could only find ways to find a good talent again.
*********************
North of Liyue City, "Wangjiang Tower".
After leaving "Yayuan", Jinghua did not go home, but turned to a restaurant. He ordered wine and dishes casually in a single room upstairs, poured and drank by himself silently, thinking about the way forward.
Not far from the street is the "Yishantang". People come and go in front of the gate, and the business is very prosperous, especially better than the situation in Takayama Castle back then.
“Gu…”
Jing Hua picked up the wine glass, drank it all, and secretly planned his future plans. From the heart, after learning about the decision of "Guanyuezhai", he was indeed a little disappointed, and at the same time he felt a little relieved.
Each sect and sect have its own rules, and there is nothing wrong with it. However, "Guanyuezhai" is almost paranoid and "keeping it alone", which is a bit abnormal no matter how you think about it.
Jinghua's life is relatively simple and his social circle is narrow. It is said to be more suitable for the rules of the veterinary world. However, when people live in the world, they are inevitably some relatives and friends. If they are in trouble, they can help, but they are limited to the stereotypes and can only watch from the wall. How do people deal with it themselves?
“Gu…”
Jing Hua drank another glass, closed his eyes and savored silently. Judging from this, he probably had concerns in his heart before, but he was not released until today. He was a human being for two lifetimes, but he only wanted to have a clear conscience and be happy and carefree. Too many rules would bring shackles.
It doesn't matter to him, but the two elders of Jing's family are inevitably disappointed.
"Squeak..."
As soon as the door rang, the serving chef walked into the single room, bowed and placed the bowl in his hand on the table. When he saw the guest watching the window, he seemed to be enjoying the scenery, he smiled and said, "Immortal Master, are you looking at the medicine shop opposite? "Yishantang" is a time-honored brand in the city. Several types of elixirs are unique secrets. Merchants who come and go to see it..."
Jing Hua laughed silently.
Needless to say, this must be Jing Furen's "trick". This place is close to the center of Lile City. Most of the monks come and go up the "Wangjiang Tower", but the people who do odd jobs are ordinary people. Guys, the children don't know how many benefits they have received, but they even "advertise" to everyone.
He threw the ingot of broken silver over, and the man left with great gratitude. Jing Hua's eyes gradually became clear and his heart knot dissipated.
When he learned the news in the Zhai period, he secretly decided to suppress the matter for the time being and not alarm the two elders.
The Jing family has reproduced in Ligu County for several generations, and the "Fire Thunder Gate" changes deeply stimulated the two elders. Although Yao Gu had never said anything, Jing Hua knew very well. When the truth of Jing Tianci's death was exposed, the two elders were almost on the verge of collapse.
Jing Furen turned gray all night long. Although he was over 70 years old, the monk's body and maintenance were well maintained, and he looked more like a middle-aged man. He suffered from the days and nights, and was almost haggard. Yao Gu was even more unbearable. He usually shouted and drank casually, but during that period, he was like a frightened child, and he didn't dare to speak loudly.
After settling in Liyue City, they gradually calmed down. The name of "Guanyuezhai" was too famous, the situation in Shengzhou was relatively stable, and the four cities of Tongtian were even more peaceful and prosperous.
Jing Furen was very talented in cultivation and was very good at business. After taking over the gold shop in the north of the city, his business became better and better. The tribesmen who followed him performed their duties and lived and worked in peace. Only then did the two elders return to their normal trajectory, and their smiles were much brighter than before.
With no worries, the blessings are solemn. Jing Furen was able to practice a year ago and reached the state of perfect gathering of spirits. Yao Gu has long been a foundation-building monk. Now, in addition to practicing and refining alchemy, she is paying attention to finding suitable female cultivators all day long, with the purpose of self-evident. If she hadn't used seclusion as an excuse, she would have been afraid that "blind dates" would come one after another.
After experiencing great changes, the two elders have regarded Lile City as their new home. If they learn about the decision of "Guanyuezhai", they will inevitably be worried when they are disappointed, and the "comfort" that has finally accumulated will collapse instantly.
"Gu!"
After having another cup, Jing Hua made a secret decision.
Strictly speaking, there is no big problem with "handling" in the Zhai. Ji Xiu'an had warned several times before not to interfere in the grievances of the sect. It was because he was lucky, but he was discovered by others and now he cannot shirk responsibility.
In any case, he was still a guest official of "Guanyuezhai". As long as he was still in his identity, there would be no problem in the management of "Yishantang". I just heard what Ji said. Since there was no hope in the Zhai, it would be better to find a suitable sect.
Ji Xiu'an said it is reasonable. It is not worthy of his name as a "guest official". He has to make plans for his family and himself in the future. However, before confirming the sect, he cannot "eat but not cook". He should serve the vegetarian food appropriately to reflect sufficient "value" to ensure that the Jing family's life is safe.
As for the way to reflect value, Jing Hua had long been concerned about it.
The rewards of "Guanyuezhai" are good, and they will be divided up quickly if they are simple and easy to do. However, many of them are too difficult and few guest officials should give it. For example, the previous notice of Qu Tufeng's reward has not been cancelled yet.
"Guanyuezhai" is a golden signboard. It is indeed famous in Shengzhou and even Donghai Road, and many things are relatively convenient. However, in other counties, there are more problems that need to be dealt with. As long as one or two difficult errands can be solved from time to time, the guest official will naturally be stable.
Jing Hua did not forget Zhao Yiming. He was a full-time steward, but in the end he ended up losing his family. The reason was that he was eccentric in his behavior and ruined his reputation in the veterinary city. He did nothing and lived in the city of rituals and music. He was afraid that it was also the reason for his defeat.
"Swish..."
White light flashed outside the window, and a talisman crane flew into the elegant room.
When Jing Hua opened it, he saw that it was a letter sent by his old friend Shang Pengshou. There were a few sentences on the letter, concise and concise, and invited him to go to the Central Plains Road to observe the introductory ceremony of "Yishen Sect" together.
