Chapter 8: It is better to teach a man to fish than to give him a fish
Watching his fifth uncle leave, Chen Xuanqing felt particularly happy.
It's not because Uncle Wu is short-lived, it's mainly because he can pay for his travel expenses and earn some money.
Is there anything in the world that makes people happier than having sex for free?
However, Chen Xuanqing did not waste time. After returning and packing her luggage, Chen Xuanqing had to say goodbye to her mother.
Half an hour later.
Chen Xuanqing came to her mother's residence. Before going there, she asked the servants to check if her father was there. As a result, she heard that her father was also punished to kneel in the ancestral hall, including his uncles, but his fifth uncle did not kneel.
The main reason why the old man punished them was not because of Chen Xuanqing's few words. After all, it was because of not renewing the incense of the Chen family. The old man was more sensible. Chen Xuanqing could not renew the family incense alone. After all, it was not
Are these people incompetent?
After learning this, Chen Xuanqing breathed a sigh of relief.
After finding my mother, we had another round of questioning.
It is natural for a mother to worry when her son travels thousands of miles.
Chen Xuanqing said many kind words to make her mother Li happy, but Li still burst into tears, which made Chen Xuanqing feel helpless.
After spending more than three hours with her mother, Chen Xuanqing left.
Before leaving, her mother, Mrs. Li, stuffed some banknotes for herself, but Chen Xuanqing did not accept them.
Although he was indeed short of money, Chen Xuanqing still didn't want the money. Since he promised his clansmen to rely on him, Chen Xuanqing would keep his word.
Of course, if Chen Xuanqing found out that the Chen family was playing something fishy, he would never admit it.
The Chen family made its fortune through business, and businessmen are based on honesty. This is the truth that Chen Xuanqing has understood since he was a child. People cannot be dishonest.
Even the most vicious people can follow the principle of honesty and integrity. If they say they want to kill the whole family, they will kill the whole family, let alone the good people.
After bidding farewell to his mother, Mrs. Li, Chen Xuanqing went to find the old man again.
The old man is relatively cheerful and prestigious. Although he also expressed various solicitations in his words, hoping that he would not go to Taiyi Immortal Sect, the agreement was made.
Mr. Chen would never go back on his word, he just taught some worldly wisdom.
If the road is uneven, act according to your ability.
What roadside wildflowers prevent immortals.
There are many friends and many paths, take a step back and the sky will be brighter, and endure the calm for a while.
The content instilled in the next generation is basically the same. For your own children, you are encouraged to have adventures and not be afraid of hardship or tiredness. For the next generation, you hope to be safe and smooth.
After nagging for two hours, Chen Xuanqing returned to his residence.
By this time, it was already Haishi and the sky was completely dark.
Chen Xuanqing didn't do anything else. He took a look at the Immortal Cultivation Diary and found that there were no new changes, so he fell asleep early.
We will set off at Yinshi tomorrow, and we will definitely be wading through water and climbing mountains along the way, so we need to keep ourselves energetic.
The next day.
Chen Xuanqing woke up early.
Before dawn, Chen Xuanqing had packed everything.
There wasn't much luggage to pack. I brought two sets of clothes, but nothing else. As for the spiritual stones, they were all placed in the spiritual stone bag, and Chen Xuanqing hid them in a relatively hidden place.
Now, after deducting the 460 spirit stones used yesterday, there are still 540 spirit stones left.
It seems like a lot, but according to the characteristics of the Immortal Cultivation Diary, this amount of spiritual stones will probably be spent soon.
So I must earn more spiritual stones.
Just how to make money is a problem.
Chen Xuanqing would definitely earn spiritual stones normally, but making money without delaying his cultivation of immortality was the result Chen Xuanqing wanted.
After thinking about it, Chen Xuanqing couldn't figure it out.
But at this moment, a new reminder appeared in the Immortal Cultivation Diary.
---
Yinshi: You got up early and prepared to go to the Taiyi Immortal Sect of Jinyun Mansion, but before you went, you thought of one thing. Because of the existence of the Cultivation Diary, you felt extremely confident, but because of your poverty, you were worried that you would not get any reminders.
So you are thinking about whether you can earn spiritual stones without affecting your practice.
Brackets [Hint 1: One Spiritual Stone] [Hint 2: Five Spiritual Stones] [Hint 3: Ten Spiritual Stones] Brackets
---
What surprised Chen Xuanqing was that there were actually prompts?
This diary of cultivating immortals is really full of holes.
Just seeing the price of a spiritual stone, Chen Xuanqing was inexplicably scared. God knows what hints this immortal diary will give.
"Bought it!"
You can't be fooled if you buy a spiritual stone, and you can't suffer a loss if you buy a spiritual stone.
Even if he really suffered a loss, Chen Xuanqing admitted it. After all, he had something to ask for.
As the spirit stones dissipate, a prompt appears soon.
[It is better to teach a man to fish than to teach him to fish]
As soon as the prompt appeared, what Chen Xuanqing didn't expect was that Diary of Immortality didn't have such bad fun anymore.
On the contrary, he gave a rare and thought-provoking answer.
Hey guys, playing charades?
And just as you play, there are still typos.
Isn't it better to teach a man to fish than to teach him to fish? Is there a typo here?
Chen Xuanqing was a little curious.
However, Chen Xuanqing did not think that there would be typos in the diary of cultivating immortals. It was probably a riddle.
“It is better to teach a man how to fish than to teach him how to fish, which means that it is better to teach others how to fish than to give him a fish.”
"The Diary of Cultivation of Immortality says that it is better to teach others to fish than to give them a fish."
"What is this?"
Chen Xuanqing really didn't understand what this meant.
Obviously Diary of Cultivation to Immortality is clearly trying to trick him, it's just a different way.
Yes, you still have to keep paying.
Chen Xuanqing can still afford a dozen spiritual stones, as long as he knows how to make money without affecting his own practice.
Soon prompt two appears.
[Stones from other mountains can attack jade]
Chen Xuanqing: "..."
Another riddle.
Chen Xuanqing doesn’t want to talk nonsense anymore, just buy Tip 3.
As the ten spirit stones dissipated.
Finally prompt three appears.
[Everyone in the world has worries, you can use the Cultivation Diary to relieve them of their worries and earn spiritual stones]
As prompt three appeared, Chen Xuanqing suddenly understood.
After all, that's what it means.
Worked for most of the day just to earn the first six spirit stones?
Clothes.
Capitalized service.
Chen Xuanqing had to accept this diary of cultivating immortals.
But if you think about it carefully, this method is really good.
Something is...wrong with everyone.
Everyone has their own worries. If you can relieve others' worries, why not do it for others? As for spending some spiritual stones, this would be even better.
What is the most taboo thing for those who cultivate immortality?
It's cause and effect!
I helped you, do you owe me a favor?
If I ask you for money, am I repaying a favor?
Things that you and I wish for naturally do not involve cause and effect.
wonderful.
wonderful.
Wonderful.
But thinking about it carefully, Chen Xuanqing felt that something was wrong.
After a while, Chen Xuanqing suddenly realized something.
"Good guy, do you want to use this Diary of Immortal Cultivation to make extra money with your own hands?"
At this moment, Chen Xuanqing figured it out.
This Cultivation Diary not only wants to earn his own spiritual stones, but also wants to earn other people's spiritual stones. He really wants them all.
The most amazing thing is, obviously you want to earn other people's spiritual stones, but you still have to pay for tips?
Treachery!
It's really a treacherous book.
If it weren't for the fact that he couldn't take out the diary of cultivating immortals, Chen Xuanqing would definitely step on him a few times.
"No, I must be more cautious and think carefully in the future. I can't let this diary suck away my hard-earned money."
Chen Xuanqing said with certainty in his heart.
He probably now understands the routine of this diary of cultivating immortals.
Three to four prompts, the first prompt will always give a vague answer, the second prompt will be a little more detailed and will give a range of thinking, the third prompt will be very detailed, and if it reaches prompt four, basically
It's like telling the answer.
So in the future, you need to be more cautious. If you can spend the money on Tip 1, try not to spend on Tip 2.
I'm just afraid that this Diary of Cultivation to Immortality is playing tricks.
"Young Master, the fourth master asked me to urge you to leave."
At this moment, the servant's voice sounded outside.
Chen Xuanqing immediately retracted his mind and walked towards the door.
Less than a moment.
Chen Xuanqing came to the gate of Chen's house.
The carriages have been prepared, and there are quite a lot of goods to be transported. At a glance, there are at least ten or twenty vehicles, each of which contains four large boxes.
A carriage is equipped with two bodyguards, which is quite a lot.
"Dad, uncle, you are here too."
Arriving at the door of the house, Chen Xuanqing felt a little embarrassed. He didn't expect that his father and uncle were both there, and they were all wearing long sleeves.
It seems to be to bid farewell to myself.
"snort!"
"Bunny."
The cold snorts from the father, uncle and others rang out. The incident of being whipped the day before yesterday was still fresh in my mind. The pain was not a problem. The main reason was that it was a bit embarrassing to be beaten at such an old age.
Now that they see Chen Xuanqing, they will naturally not look down upon him.
If Chen Xuanqing hadn't left today, Chen Xuanqing would certainly not have had an easy time.
"Dad, uncles and aunts, I'm getting in the car first. If you need anything, just ask someone to send you a message. Don't read it."
Under the cold eyes of the elders, Chen Xuanqing said with a sneer, and then quickly got into the car to avoid being scolded.
"Be careful on the road, and you must listen to your fifth uncle in everything. Don't act recklessly, and don't be aggressive with others. Do you understand?"
Father Chen Ye's voice sounded, although it sounded a bit sinister, but after all, he was his son, so how could he not be worried when he was thousands of miles away from home.
"Dad, don't worry, if my fifth uncle is in danger, I will be the first to run."
Chen Xuanqing got into the car and spoke. Chen Peng, who was just about to get in the car, was stunned by his words.
This bastard.
Chen Peng was a little helpless, but Chen Xuanqing's uncle grabbed Chen Peng and said in a lowered voice.
"Lao Wu, please pay attention to safety along the way and don't make any mistakes. It's okay if something happens to you. Don't let anything happen to Xuanqing. Otherwise, it's not that my eldest brother won't help you. You know our father's temper. Do you understand?"
Chen Xuanqing's uncle spoke up and mentioned something specifically.
