Seeing Zhao Ran munching on melons and fruits, Rong Niang glanced at him and said, "Did Zhao come here to grab some food?"
Hao Lingsu and Du Xingyan, who were standing next to them, only heard this sentence as a joke from Rong Niang, not knowing what Rong Niang meant.
Zhao Ran laughed, stopped embarrassedly, and said, "What about that? I'm here to receive all the fellow Taoists who have come from afar. I'm so talkative that my mouth is dry. Let's eat some fruits to moisten our mouths."
Du Xingyan coughed dryly, stared at Zhao Ran, and raised the corners of his mouth.
Zhao Ran was stunned for a moment and followed his gaze. Is there anything next to him?
Du Xingyan coughed twice more, raised his neck at Zhao Ran, and shook his head to the side twice.
Zhao Ran: "...Do you feel discomfort in Daoyou Du's neck? Or is he feeling unwell?"
Du Xingyan was unhappy and said: "Zhao Miaozhu, can you get up and sit somewhere else? Rong Niang is sitting there, you have to squeeze over, remember that there are differences between men and women!"
Zhao Ran was immediately embarrassed. He and Rong Niang were too familiar with each other and there was not much etiquette between them. Rong Niang made room for him and he sat down without thinking too much. Hearing what Du Xingyan said, he saw a lot of things.
He stared at it with both eyes, and knew that there was indeed a lack of consideration. He quickly stood up and said: "Sorry, sorry, hehe, I'm rude..."
Rong Niang quickly stretched out her hand, pulled Zhao Ran's sleeves down, pressed Zhao Ran next to her, and said, "Don't go anywhere, just sit here!"
Du Xingyan said anxiously: "Rong Niang, he is just a layman. He has no qualifications to sit next to you. I have not sat down..."
Rong Niang rolled her eyes at him and said word by word: "Zhao Zhiran is the temple blessing of Junshan Temple! This is his territory. He can sit wherever he likes. You are eating his food and drinking his food, but you won't let him."
Sitting here, what do you want to do?"
Du Xingyan said: "We monks gathered in this ruined temple to give him face. It is enough for him to go out and show off. How can he be qualified to sit here?"
Rong Niang sneered: "Du Xingyan, are you blind? Zhao Zhiran is a disciple of the Lingjian Pavilion of Huayun Pavilion and a monk in the Taoist realm. He is not qualified to sit here? Then you are? Oh, by the way, you are now
You are in the Huangguan realm, so you look down on the Taoist realm?"
Du Xingyan was stunned and looked at Zhao Zhiran in disbelief: "You are a monk of Huayun Pavilion? Then you said you are the temple blessing of Junshan Temple?"
Zhao Ran said: "I'm sorry, I am indeed the temple priest of Junshan Temple, the governor of Wuji Academy, and a disciple of Lingjian Pavilion of Huayun Pavilion."
Du Xingyan said angrily: "If you are a good monk and don't practice, why do you come here to pray in the temple? It's really strange!"
This question has always been a headache for Zhao Ran. He has explained it many times. He is too lazy to explain more at this moment. He just said: "There are thousands of avenues. I choose one. How to practice is my business. It seems to have nothing to do with Fellow Daoist Du. In addition, I
I would like to advise fellow Taoists, don’t look down on the secular way. Where do the elixirs for your Taoist practice come from? Where do the materials for your Taoist refining talismans come from? In the future, if you Taoists are successful in the Taoism, I will have the confidence to help you soar.
Where did it come from? Is the secular way inferior to others? Without the full supply of the secular way, how can fellow Taoists practice? Just like what Rong Niang said just now, eating my food and drinking my food, why should my fellow Taoists look down on me?
"
Du Xingyan opened his mouth, held back his anger and shouted at Zhao Ran, clasping his fists and saying, "Teach me a lesson!" He turned to Rong Niang and said, "Rong Niang, I am doing this for your own good. You are a woman who has not left the court, and he is just sitting on your back like this."
Don’t you feel embarrassed around me? Don’t you feel embarrassed?”
Rong Niang said coldly: "No, Zhao Zhiran and I have known each other for several years. Just like Senior Brother Dongfang and I, we are very good friends and don't feel embarrassed at all. I heard that what is hidden in a person's heart can be seen in his eyes.
What happened is what happened..."
Du Xingyan said: "Don't you know what I feel about you?"
Rong Niang said: "Senior Brother Du, please respect yourself!"
Du Xingyan pointed at Zhao Ran and shouted to Rong Niang: "You said you respect yourself when you were with me, why didn't you say it when you were with him? Do you two respect yourself like this?"
Zhao Ran also became angry: "Fellow Daoist Du, please speak more politely."
Du Xingyan said angrily: "Zhao Zhiran, I have been very polite to you. Who are you? A little Taoist priest. If I hadn't seen that you have not yet entered the Huangguan, I would have taught you a lesson today!"
Zhao Ran nodded: "I am nothing, just a small temple in the Shifang Jungle. Today I am waiting for you, Daoist Fellow Du, a high cultivator, to teach me, a small temple, a lesson."
The quarrel reached this point, and the monks present had already gathered around. Dongfang Jing asked with a solemn face, "Rong Niang, did you invite this friend Du?"
Rong Niang was so angry that she trembled all over and said, "Dongfang, I didn't invite him. He came by himself. He has nothing to do with me!"
Dongfang Jing said to Du Xingyan: "My friend Du is looking down on others, but he doesn't know which family he is from?"
Du Xingyan raised his neck and said: "There is no need to say which family I am a descendant of, and I never rely on my family background to bully others. What we monks look at is the realm of cultivation, and what we compare is the strength in fighting. Brother Dongfang, your cultivation is deeper than mine.
I admire you, but if the person named Zhao is not good at cultivation, I will look down on him!"
Dongfang Jing nodded: "It's pretty cool... Then why don't you compare notes with Zhao Zhiran?"
Du Xingyan shook his head and said: "He is a Taoist priest, what are you trying to do? If he wins without fighting, he will gossip. In the future, people will say that I, Du, bullied him."
The butcher shouted: "Boy with the surname Du, I am also the old butcher with a yellow crown, let's compete!"
Pei Zhongning came out from behind Pei Zhongze at some point and said in a soft voice: "Senior Brother Du, my little sister has just joined Huangguan, so she is specifically asking for advice from senior brother."
Meng Yanzhen immediately said: "Junior Sister Pei, why should I end up? As long as I am here, I will be a pawn in front of Junior Sister." After saying that, he patted his forehead again and said, "It's just that I am already in the mage realm, but I don't end up well.
So what should we do?"
Du Xingyan sneered: "Do you want to rely on more to win? Why don't you just go shoulder to shoulder? Is Mr. Du afraid of you?"
Dongfang Jing frowned and asked, "What does friend Du want?"
Du Xingyan said: "Let's go one-on-one. As many Huang Guan as you have here, I will take them all. But let's make an agreement first, we will fight one game a day, starting tomorrow!"
Rong Niang sneered and said: "Okay, I will be the first to come tomorrow. I will let you rest for the night first, so as not to say that I bullied you."
Du Xingyan's face changed color: "Rong Niang, I didn't say I wanted to fight you, I just want to..."
Rong Niang said disdainfully: "If you don't dare to fight with me, just leave as soon as possible. What excuse are you looking for!"
Du Xingyan said sarcastically: "Rong Niang, don't you understand my feelings for you?"
Zhao Ran sighed and said: "Fellow Daoist Du, it's better for me, a small temple congratulator, to come. What's the point of talking so much nonsense? My friends have come from afar, and I haven't had enough wine yet. Please finish it early and return to the banquet early. We are still good friends.
