Dongfang Li has never met a person like Zhao Ran. It is obviously a reward for his merits, but he actually accepted it in the bargaining process, and he seemed to accept it reluctantly? I gave you a favor, shouldn't you be grateful? How can you return it?
Are you talking about terms?
Just when Dongfang Li had thought about it and was about to think of a way to punish Zhao Ran for this "excessive" behavior, Zhao Ran suddenly changed his appearance, expressed his gratitude happily, and took out the
Various cooking materials represent a delicious grilled fish meal for the Eastern ceremony.
This action immediately satisfied Dongfang Li's sense of accomplishment, and the unhappiness that had not yet brewed in his heart was strangled in the cradle in the blink of an eye.
Zhao Ran quickly skewered the fish caught by the two of them on wooden branches and put them on his special barbecue grill. The loaches here are not big, only one finger long, and they were neatly stacked on the grill by Zhao Ran
Top, sprinkle with seasonings, sizzling, exuding bursts of fresh fragrance.
Dongfang Li took a bunch and praised while chewing: "It tastes really good... The previous Master Zhuo of the West Hall loved fishing the most. I followed him for many years. I thought my fishing skills were pretty good. I didn't expect you to be good at fishing either... Hmm
, there are ten tails, just like me... Are you usually good at fishing?"
Zhao Ran answered while eating: "I don't fish much, I don't have that much time, and I don't have that leisure. I just fish directly in the Chongma River in Junshan with a net."
Dongfang Li shook his head and said with a smile: "To understand the true meaning of the Tao, sometimes you still have to calm down and fish slowly... Why don't you and I compete to see who can catch more - no Taoism is required, otherwise you will think that I am bullying you and playing tricks.
What I'm talking about is the quiet kung fu, and what I'm comparing is the Taoist mind."
Dongfang Li became interested in playing games, and Zhao Ran responded enthusiastically. The two of them swept away the grilled fish on the grill, then picked up the fishing rod and started fishing.
"When will the training of casual cultivators in your Long'an Mansion begin?"
"My master told me a few days ago that I plan to find out more about the situation after I go back, um, in a month or two. Why did Senior Brother Li suddenly ask about this?"
"A little friend got pregnant this year, please take care of me." After saying that, Dongfang Li stuffed a piece of paper two fingers wide.
Zhao Ran took it and looked at it, and it was written: Bai Geng, a layman of Bai Xuan in the Qingzhu Valley in the southwest of Jiangyou County, hopes to be awarded the Huang Guan.
"Senior Brother Li, for a mere Huang Guanlu position, why should I ask Senior Brother Li to talk to me specifically? Whether it is Sanqing Pavilion or Jade Emperor Pavilion, it is not a big deal, right?" Zhao Ran felt slightly strange.
Dongfang Li explained: "You have entered Sanqing Pavilion, and now you are one of your own. To put it bluntly, he is a casual cultivator of Long'an Mansion. Under normal circumstances, it is most suitable to be buried in Long'an Mansion, but there will be some problems in Yuhuang Pavilion.
Abrupt, let alone Sanqing Pavilion. We need to make his resume a normal resume."
Zhao Ran nodded: "Understood. I will prepare this matter when I get back, and I will give you a letter then." Suddenly he remembered, and asked: "Then where did he receive the two positions of Taoist priest and Taoist priest before him?
of?"
"If you don't have a job, you will be in vain."
So it turns out that Dongfang Li asked Zhao Ran to arrange three conferrals on him as soon as he opened his mouth. First, Bai Geng was conferred as a Taoist priest, then as a Taoist priest, and finally as a Huang Guan.
Adding three baskets at a time requires careful thinking, and Bai Geng's identity must be hidden from others, and he must not forcefully take care of him without any reason, so as not to cause discussion among the entire Long'an Mansion casual cultivator community. For the examiner
Generally speaking, this is a time to test your ability. There is no way to deal with this kind of thing. The best way to operate is to "set it according to the person".
The so-called "setting up positions according to people" has two approaches. One is to set up positions according to people, and set selection criteria according to the characteristics of the people who want to benefit, fundamentally cutting off the possibility of other people participating in the competition. But this time Zhao Ran wants to
It is difficult to preset conditions for the enshrinement ceremony hosted by the host. It seems that the only way to adopt the second method is to set up trials based on people.
So Zhao Ran asked: "This Bai Geng, what does Senior Brother Li like about him?"
Dongfang Li said without hesitation: "He is keen, has strong judgment, and sees opportunities very quickly. Also, he often encounters some inexplicable troubles..."
Zhao Ran was speechless, what kind of advantage is this? Even being unlucky can be useful? Senior Brother Li is really eclectic in hiring people.
After talking about the business, the two chatted about other things, such as the situation in Xia Kingdom. Zhao Ran remembered it and asked about the life and death of Yeli Huaide in the battle at Baima Mountain. He was a little relieved to learn that he was safe and sound.
Dongfang Li also mentioned that the situation in Xingqing Mansion is now tense, and the conflict between Empress Dowager Gao and the little country leader has begun to become increasingly fierce. Zhao Ran said that this was expected.
As dusk approached, Dongfang Li stopped the fishing competition and shook his head: "No more competition. I have exactly a hundred fish here. It seems that you should be no worse than me. I estimate that the number we caught is about the same. I didn't catch it just now."
How can I count the numbers for you? Click now."
Zhao Ran smiled and stopped, and together with Dongfang Li, he pulled up the bamboo basket soaked in the water. It was full of various small fish that were jumping around.
After counting, Zhao Ran caught 101 fish, just one more than Dongfang Li.
Dongfang Li sighed: "It seems that your Daoist heart is stronger than mine."
Zhao Ran smiled and said: "I don't have any Taoist heart here, I just have a little more luck."
After resting one night on the stilt house in the west hall, Zhao Ran got up early in the morning and wanted to meet a few acquaintances, such as Dongfang Jing, Yu Zhiyuan, Cai Yunshen, etc. However, he was told that both Dongfang Jing and Yu Zhiyuan were in retreat, and one was preparing to attack
The other is in the Archmage realm and is attacking the Taoist realm.
Dongfang Jing stayed in the mage realm for seven or eight years, and it was a matter of time before he broke through the realm. Zhao Ran was not surprised. He was worried that Yu Zhiyuan only broke into the Taoist realm at the age of forty, so would there be any surprises?
, I just hope that the few spiritual herbs I gave him last year will work.
Cai Yunshen was very pleased to see Zhao Ran suddenly. The last time they met, Cai Yunshen used the hard-earned blood of the Black Armored Turtle to make elixirs for Zhao Ran, helping Zhao Ran break through the bottleneck and become a Taoist priest. Now three years later, Zhao Ran has actually
He further refined himself and achieved the Huang Guan cultivation level, which really made Cai Yunshen very happy.
"Congratulations to Uncle Cai for entering the realm of the Great Master and cultivating his own soul." The first thing Zhao Ran did when they met was to send him a congratulatory gift.
The mage and the archmage both belong to the second stage of the four major stages of practice - refining qi and transforming it into a god. The mage level is refining qi, which is the golden elixir. The archmage level is refining the qi into a god. As the name suggests, the level is to refine the golden elixir into a god.
Consciousness comes to prepare for the next step of spiritual consciousness giving birth to a baby.
After cultivating the spiritual consciousness, it is the watershed that truly distinguishes Zhengyi from Quanzhen. The spiritual consciousness needs to be placed on something. Once it is successfully placed, it can be called the natal soul.
Cai Yunshen stroked his long beard and said with a smile: "It's just an extension of my life for another twenty years. In these twenty years, I can study more magic formations. This is what I am most happy about."
"With these twenty years, Uncle Master can work hard for the next twenty years. Step by step, work steadily, and your ascension will be a matter of course."
"Haha, it's not that easy, but I have to accept your good advice."
