Chapter 15 A Chance

Three days after the Fire Pin Jing Demon, Li Ji finally waited for the news that he had been looking forward to. The Taoist Chongfa left Cixi tomorrow and specially appointed him to escort him. "Is it finally coming?" Li Ji knew in his heart that this was his last chance.

The haunted house sacrificed his life to win the monster, ignored the treasures of the well demon, and returned to the town to keep his mouth shut. All this was actually just a guide for the Taoist. Cultivating immortals was difficult, especially for ordinary people of his age who had no status and connections. If he missed this time, he couldn't think of where to find the next opportunity.

Do your best, leave your destiny, that's all... He has decided that even if the Taoist still refuses this time, he will leave Cixi. The outside world is very wonderful, and he doesn't have much time to stay in such a place to accumulate strength... Laziness is the product of time, and being used to being at peace and leisure can only make him lose the courage to go out more and more... Even if he doesn't have the chance to be cultivating in the end, it's good to go out more and more while he's young... He made up his mind and finally let go of his worries about gains and losses, and had no dreams all night...

Shuangcheng is located more than 200 miles northwest of Cixi. There are mountainous roads along the way, and occasionally bandits appear. These are not a problem for both the heavy law and Li Ji. The famous Li Youzi is still very intimidating around Cixi. He has walked this road many times by himself, and the bandits do not come to provoke him. There is not much oil or hard bones, so why bother?

Cixi prepared a carriage for the Taoist, of course it was from a great man of Wang. According to Li Ji, the Taoist might have been very injured in killing monsters in a haunted house. Otherwise, with his elusive Taoist methods, this slow carriage would be a waste of time.

According to the requirements of the Conquer Law, there was no arrangement for the groom during this trip, and there were only two of them in the same trip. Fortunately, Li Ji was not unfamiliar with driving the car and was not as familiar as a skilled person. It was still fine to drive normally.

The two set off in the early morning, without saying a word all the way, they were having sex with their feet and feeding them on horseback, and Li Ji alone took them all. The Taoist kept staying in the carriage, not even the dry food handed over by Li Ji. "Maybe this is the case with practicing Taoism, and eating wind and drinking dew describes such a person." Li Ji thought maliciously.

The Taoist did not say a word, and Li Ji was also tired of this silence expectation. He didn't like this feeling of being controlled. He simply didn't rest at night and rushed to the road overnight. On the second day, after a day and a night of running, he finally saw the not-tall city wall of the Twin Cities. On the last hillside before entering the city, the Taoist who had not made a sound for a long time rang the wall of the car.

Li Ji stopped the carriage, watched the Taoist get out of the car, walked to the hillside and stared quietly at the city wall in the distance. After a long time, he asked, "Do you understand cultivation?"

"I don't understand..." Li Ji told the truth, this person who is old and always feels like he is seen through.

The Taoist Chongfa nodded and said, "The Hanzhou in the Northern Region, the kingdom has hundreds of kingdoms, thousands of cities, and the population is trillions. It is truly a golden elixir that is expected to be the Great Avenue of Longevity. There are only a few people in more than ten years. Do you know what this probability means?"

Without waiting for Li Ji to answer, the Taoist continued, "I won't mention it when I am far away. I will say that Nanli Country has a population of nearly 100 million. Every year, only a hundred people feel the energy entering the body and stepping into the threshold of cultivation. This is just the first step in cultivation. The further you practice, the more difficult it will be. How many people are there? I have been practicing for a hundred years and still have no way to make a pill. When I am old, I can only enjoy some wealth and wealth in these two cities. If I had known this, why would I have been practicing for decades?"

Seeing Li Ji silently, the Taoist sighed, "In the eyes of outsiders, monks can practice clouds and fog, control water and fire, and thunder in their palms. That is a great scenery, and their lifespan increases. They all yearn for it. However, they do not know that the path of practicing Taoism is difficult to compete in martial arts, narrowly defeating the career path, and under the scenery in front of others, but they do not know how much hard work is behind it. You are tenacious, resourceful, good at breaking, and not overly exaggerated. From the perspective of your mind, you are actually a good talent for practicing Taoism, but... you are over 10 years old and have a poor roots, but the middle and lower posture is a taboo in practice. You are even more untouched in the so-called wealth and partner law, and you are forced to enter this path, but it may not be as easy as living in the mortal world as you are."

The Taoist turned around and looked directly at Li Ji, "If you are a few years younger, based on your nature, I may accept you as a disciple, but my current situation is limited by the rules of the master, but I cannot accept you. I have a few words to ask you, can you return to me with your original heart?"

"Please tell me, the boy will not go against his original intention..."

"If I have an opportunity with you, no matter whether you succeed or not, the cause and effect between you and me will definitely be settled. Do you know?"

"Boy understands that one opportunity is enough..."

"Cultivating the truth is difficult, and there are many sects, and the Taoist dynasty is in conflict. People, demons, ghosts, and other worlds often fight for life and death. Dao has not yet been cultivated, which is very common. Do you know?"

"It is more meaningful than mediocre things, just to live and die for life..."

"As soon as you enter the cultivation of the truth, you are like a sea, but when you look back, you have no parents. The relatives and friends in the world are afraid that they will be mist and clouds. Do you know?"

"Although the grades are not alone, there is no concern in this world..."

"So, you have listened carefully to what I said below..." The Taoist said solemnly, "Although I can't accept you into my wall, I have a friend who has profound Taoism. He is the elders of the inner sect of the New Moon Sect. In September this year, there was a meeting of disciples to be accepted by the sect. This sect has often failed in recent years, and the inheritance of the sect is difficult, so the standards for accepting disciples have been relaxed a lot. This is your opportunity... You can hold my token and get an opportunity, but can you finally grasp it, depending on your luck, but you have nothing to do with me. Do you understand?"

"Thank you for your guidance. The road was finally made by yourself. How can you blame others..." Li Ji was in a state of great emotion.

The Taoist Chongfa nodded and took out a jade slip from his bag. After thinking about it, he took out two ingots of fifty taels of gold. "There is a Taoist temple in the territory of Zhou. There is a Taoist temple named Xiaoyue Temple outside the outskirts of Shenfang City, the capital of the country. You can hold my token and hand it over to the temple owner directly, and someone will arrange it... This hundred taels of gold is my farewell gift..."

"How can I get this? How can I collect money again if I get the opportunity... "Li Ji wanted to refuse again after a big week. When he looked up, there was no trace of a Taoist in front of him...

Li Ji sighed in his heart that although he had not had much contact with Taoist Master Chongfa, this old man had the style of an ancient gentleman, with noble character, cold face and warm heart, which was a good teacher and friend. Unfortunately, he was poor in his blessings and finally missed him. Seeing that he was not optimistic about himself, was it because his roots and bones were really bad? Or was the age factor so important? After thinking about it, he could not succeed. He could only press down on his melancholy, hide the precious and respectful jade slips, turn his horse's head, and go back to Cixi.
