Standing beside him, Zhang DaDa was mesmerized. He saw his benefactor Xu Ce chatting with Taoist Master Xu and found out that they were brothers from the same sect. They were both from the Maoshan Taoist sect.
The Taoist priests of Maoshan Taoism are all good people.
After listening to Xu Ce saying that he wanted to go inside to talk, Zhang Dadan came back to his senses and asked quickly:
"My benefactor, Taoist Master Xu, please come inside and we'll have a chat while drinking tea."
Xu Ce nodded lightly, and the three of them filed in.
Zhang Bingdao's home is not big, just like an ordinary home, but it also has a separate living room, and a cup of tea is already placed on the Eight Immortals table.
Xu Youliang said:
"Pindao has been waiting here for Junior Brother Xu for a long time. It's fate."
Xu Ce suddenly nodded and said with a smile:
"Senior Brother Xu is interested."
"My benefactor, your tea."
Zhang boldly brewed a new cup of tea respectfully and handed it to Xu Ce.
"My lord, Taoist Xu, it's still early now. You guys can chat slowly. I'll go outside to buy some side dishes and we'll chat while we eat later."
Xu Ce did not refuse. This stupid fat man had only earned ten taels of silver. There was no psychological burden for him to make some money.
It's just that Xu Ce was surprised, where did this bold wife go?
I'm curious, but it's not easy to ask. You can't just ask someone's wife for the first time at someone's home. In that case, Xu Ce's benefactor's character will easily collapse.
In particular, Zhang DaDa now suspected that his wife was stealing someone, although there was no evidence.
"Then there's Brother Lao Zhang."
Taoist priest Xu bowed his hands and thanked him.
"It's okay, that's right. My benefactor, Master Xu, please sit down for now. I'll be back soon."
Zhang boldly said and walked outside.
Until Zhang boldly walked away, Xu Youliang sighed:
"Although this brother is a fool, he is also a lucky person. As long as he survives the current disaster, he may not necessarily be rich and powerful in the future, but it is no problem to be a little rich."
Xu Ce was slightly surprised when he heard what he said, and said:
"Senior Brother Xu can also tell fortunes?"
Xu Youliang smiled and said:
"My cultivation has been stagnant for many years. I had nothing to do, so I studied the techniques of the Eight Diagrams of the Book of Changes and gained some insights."
"I admire you, I admire you."
Xu Cedao.
I mean what I said sincerely, there is no way. The only thing Xu Ce is not good at is fortune telling. He can read things like fortune telling according to the manuscripts and books.
But if you really ask him to tell people's fortunes, it is indeed impossible to tell them accurately. There are many details in the fortune-telling, which often involve deduction. A small oversight can lead to a huge difference in the result.
Again, it may be due to Xu Ce's identity issue, which is inconsistent with the origin of the world's great avenues. During the deduction, the tape is stuck at any time, making it impossible to deduce it at all.
"I wonder what Junior Brother Xu's cultivation level is now? Haha, Junior Brother, don't be surprised. I just saw that Junior Brother's aura is full and full, and he is so young, so he is a little curious. If Junior Brother finds it inconvenient, it's okay not to say anything."
Xu Youliang still asked the biggest doubt in his heart.
Xu Ce had a smile on his face, but he was thinking in his mind, should he tell the truth? Or should he tell the truth? If he told the truth, would it scare Xu Youliang to the point of peeing?
After all, looking at the entire world of the underworld, there are probably only a few who are in the realm of golden elixir.
After thinking about it for a while, Xu Ce felt that it was better to save some face for Xu Youliang. He was already in his thirties, a man who had reached the fourth grade, and was still stagnant in the realm of Qi Refining. There was a great possibility that he would stop here in this life.
Very sad.
Xu Ce said very modestly:
"Junior brother is not talented. With the help of master a few days ago, he finally broke through the realm of Qi Refining and is currently at the early stage of foundation building."
"Foundation-building realm!"
Xu Youliang was still shocked. For the monks in the Qi Refining Realm who were struggling to break through, whether it was the early stage of Foundation Establishment or the Great Perfection of Foundation Establishment, it was actually the same to them. They couldn't beat it anyway and they were extremely yearning for it.
If you think about it carefully, it makes sense that Xu Ce can reach the realm of foundation building. After all, Xu Youliang can feel that Xu Ce is better than him, but he still feels a little sour in his heart. He has reached the realm of foundation building at such a young age, and we are far behind.
Of course, with Xu You's status as a good person, although he is sour, he is not jealous.
"Junior Brother Xu, I admire you, I admire you. You have such cultivation at such a young age. Senior brother is ashamed."
"Senior Brother, don't say that. It's just good luck that Junior Brother can advance to the foundation-building realm. What Senior Brother lacks is opportunity. As long as the opportunity comes, I believe it will be easy to achieve a breakthrough."
"..."
The two of them were so idle that they complimented each other humbly and had a great time bragging about each other.
Zhang DaDa was rich, so the side dishes he bought were all meaty, including cold pig ears, a big lump of braised beef, half a roast duck, peanuts, and a jar of wine.
Zhang DaDa is an honest person. When faced with his benefactor bragging to a Taoist priest who has real abilities, he can't get in the way. He listens happily and is very serious. He tries his best to write down what he hears.
Even though I don’t have much ability, I can still brag about it to others in the future.
Time passed by just bragging.
The sky was completely dark, but the lights were on inside the house, so it was still bright.
There was the sound of the clock watch coming from outside.
"It's the middle of the night, the sky is dry and things are dry, be careful of the candle..."
The third watch day is between 23:00 in the evening and 1:00 in the morning. At this time, in this era, it is already late at night.
Hearing the sound of the watch, Xu Ce and Xu Youliang looked at each other, stopped bragging in a tacit understanding, and then looked meaningfully at the honest man Zhang Dadan.
Zhang DaDa was stared at all over, and he knew it was time to watch him perform next.
He took out the apples and a fruit knife that he had prepared long ago, swallowed his saliva, and said with some fear:
"My benefactor, Taoist Xu, I, I'm going to peel the apple right now. If, if that female ghost appears again, you must save, save me."
Xu Ce smiled, patted Zhang DaDou's shoulder and said:
"Don't worry, I, the Taoist Priest, and Senior Brother Xu are here to ensure that you have no worries. It's just an evil ghost, nothing to worry about."
"Yes, Junior Brother Xu is a monk at the Foundation Establishment Realm. Even if the ghosts at the Ghost King Realm cause trouble, they can't even think of taking any advantage in the hands of Junior Brother Xu."
Xu Youliang nodded in agreement. After bragging just now, Xu Youliang also had a certain understanding of Xu Ce's strength. Anyway, it would be enough to be stronger than him. Ordinary evil ghosts are really no match for Xu Ce. Even,
None of them are his opponents.
"Oh, in this case, I, I will feel more confident."
Zhang boldly poured a bowl of wine into his stomach, feeling brave, and then walked to the newly bought mirror. He lit a candle on both sides of the mirror. The sparks of the candlelight swayed slightly, giving off a strange feeling.
