Chapter 598: Major Events in Jiangdu (4000 words)(1/2)

Earthly Immortal?

Jiang Zhou was shocked.

But as soon as his thoughts changed, he looked at it normally again.

The word "Earth Immortal" made him subconsciously think it was the Earth Immortal recorded in the Catalog of Ghosts and Gods.

However, when I think of the former Priestess Di Ji who practiced the "Earth Immortal" method, I know that the Earth Immortal here is a bit heavy.

From what Old Man Zhang said just now, it can be seen that it is normal.

The earthly immortals live the same life as the heaven and the earth, and have the same king as the world. If you leave the cave and fly to heaven, isn't that Voldemort...

At this time, everyone in the Qiu family was looking at "Old Man Zhang" blankly.

They don't understand earthly immortals or cave heavens. They only have one thought now:

This person is...Old Man Zhang?

A girl from the Qiu family quietly leaned into the ear of the younger sister from the Qiu family and said, "Little sister, how about my elder sister marry you on your behalf?"

The little sister of the Qiu family: "..."

Qiu Laoru was awakened by her embarrassing voice and turned around to glare hard.

Only then, with eyes full of surprise and doubt, said to "Old Man Zhang" in front of him: "Zhang, Zhang... are you really Mr. Zhang?"

Zhang Wenjin smiled and nodded: "It's Zhang. I didn't hide it intentionally. It's just that Zhang has been floating in the world for nearly a hundred years, and he almost forgot his own name. If not..."

He glanced at Miss Qiu, and she actually showed a slightly shy expression. However, Miss Qiu was generous and did not avoid his gaze.

Instead, he looked away and looked at Jiang Zhou: "If fellow Daoist Jiang hadn't reminded me, Zhang would have made a big mistake without realizing it."

At this time, the elder brother of the Qiu family and others were not in the mood to listen to what he said about the earthly world or the cave world. They only cared about the various arrangements in this hall.

The window is a jasper window with pearl foil.

The door is made of red purple wood, as smooth as jade, which is unprecedented in sight and hearing.

The front door is also a cold, smooth blue color, and it is impossible to distinguish its contents.

Even the maidservants standing beside her were dressed in extremely noble clothes, and their appearance was as beautiful as the ordinary ones.

Seeing the Qiu family's son-in-law and others, their eyes were straightened and their hearts were stupid, but they did not dare to make any mistakes.

Zhang Wenjin didn't take it seriously when he saw this, and just whispered a few instructions to the female waiter.

Then he pulled Jiang Zhou aside and whispered, giving everyone in the Qiu family time to digest this.

At this time, Jiang Zhou finally found an opportunity to ask the question in his heart: "Zhang Daoyou, your place is really a fairy cave. With such a relaxing place, why do you have to wallow in the mortal world and make yourself unable to be peaceful?"

When Jiang Zhou thought of the old man who was carrying a urine bucket in the vegetable garden and irrigating the garden with a broken ladle, Jiang Zhou couldn't think of the immortal figure in front of him with a majestic appearance.

Zhang Wenjin gave a bitter smile and said, "Xiaoyao, fellow Daoist Jiang, if I ask you to stay here for three or two days, would you do it?"

Jiang Zhou nodded: "Of course I can't ask for it."

Zhang Wenjin asked again: "How about March and May?"

Jiang Zhou still nodded: "Okay."

Zhang Wenjin continued to ask: "What about three to five years, or thirty to fifty years?"

Jiang Zhou pondered for a moment: "I'm afraid it's inevitable to be lonely."

At this point, he probably understood.

Sure enough, Zhang Wenjin said bitterly: "Yes, three to five years, thirty to fifty years, Taoist friends will get tired just thinking about it, but Zhang has spent more than three thousand years here, and he really can't stand the loneliness."

, Even if I know that the poison of dust corrodes the heart and bones, and is plagued by all kinds of decay, and even eventually I will die from exhaustion, I am still willing to enjoy the warmth and coldness of the world in this world."

Jiang Zhou seemed to understand but not quite.

This kind of scene can certainly be imagined, but imagining is one thing. After all, he has not lived for such a long time. He has no personal experience and is not qualified to comment.

He just nodded and said: "So, it was Miss Qiu who made fellow Taoist change his mind?"

Zhang Wenjin showed a hint of shyness.

I have seen this old monster for thousands of times, what have I not seen before? Just the many maids in his village are no worse than those of the Qiu family, but they are still like this. It seems that he really has deep affection for the Qiu family.

.

"that……"

The two of them were talking when they suddenly heard the elder man of the Qiu family rubbing his hands and saying, "Mr. Zhang... Mr. Zhang, do you know when you will marry my little sister?"

"..."

Jiang Zhou's face twitched slightly.

Qiu Laoru covered his face with his sleeves. He was temporarily unable to see anyone.

I originally rejected people on the grounds that they were a good match, but now it turns out that they are not a good match.

But it would be best if the daughter could marry such a divine personage.

I just let the shameless eldest son have free reign.

The rest of the Qiu family were also excitedly looking forward to Zhang Wenjin's answer.

On the other hand, the little girl from the Qiu family stood there looking at Zhang Wenjin openly.

Jiang Zhou looked at the familiar scene in front of him, but the roles were reversed, and he couldn't help but let out a sarcastic chuckle.

Not only are you laughing at everyone, but you are also laughing at yourself.

After all, he is just like the Qiu family, a common man who judges people by their appearance.

He claimed to be transcendent and saintly, but in the end he was still unable to escape from the mortal world. He was still confused by appearances and burdened by the world like a mortal.

This may be the "flaw" of his rapid entry into the country and his shallow background.

No wonder Qian Taishao said at the beginning that cultivating the "immortal" way is to enter the mountains.

After practicing again and again, people will eventually enter the mountains.

Otherwise, you will eventually be burdened by the world and corroded by the poison of dust.

Regardless of whether he will eventually become an immortal or remain a human being, this process will always happen.

If you don't enter the mortal world, don't go through worldly things, and don't practice meritorious deeds, it's difficult to achieve true enlightenment.

If you don't leave the mortal world, you won't be able to achieve peace and tranquility, and it will be difficult to achieve true enlightenment.

It is wrong to make progress, and it is wrong not to make progress. It is difficult to take both left and right into account. As expected, cultivating immortality is really not something that humans do.

When Jiang Zhou fell into some kind of struggle and confusion because of the words of the elder brother of the Qiu family, Zhang Wenjin felt something. He raised his hand and moved slightly, and there was an invisible flow of Qi, which isolated Jiang Zhou in a place of heaven and earth. He was unaware of external events and the outside world.

Don't disturb it either.

Only then did we discuss it with the Qiu family.

He originally wanted to marry the younger sister of the Qiu family, so naturally he would not be dissatisfied with the Qiu family's attitude of being first and then respectful.

The two hit it off immediately and decided to get married without even a few words.

Originally, the idea of ​​the eldest man of the Qiu family was to make the wedding a grand affair and send out invitations widely so that everyone in the world would know that his younger sister had married a fairy. The Qiu family has never been the same since.

Zhang Wenjin can do anything, as long as he can marry Qiu Xiaomei, he is willing to do anything.

It was Qiu Laoru who stopped him.

He was the one who tried so hard to break his promise and refuse the marriage before, but now he is the one who is shy and wants someone to marry his little sister. If he wasn't worried about little sister Qiu's happiness in the future, he would never be able to lose his face.

How can he still have the nerve to ask for big things now? If word spread, wouldn't it make many old Confucian friends laugh at him?

Although the sons-in-law of the Qiu family were unwilling, they could not defeat the dignified Qiu Laoru, so they had no choice but to reluctantly comply.

The marriage was decided, and the young girl from the Qiu family showed a bit of shyness, lowered her head, and did not dare to look at Zhang Wenjin again.

I don't know how long it took, but Jiang Zhou woke up from his chaotic thoughts. His whole body seemed to be surrounded by fresh air, and his eyes were filled with jade fairy light, clear and clean.

The Qiu family members were no longer in the hall, only Zhang Wenjin looked at him with a smile: "Congratulations to Fellow Daoist Jiang, let's make further progress."

He sighed: "My Taoist friend is really a genius, and he is worthy of being favored by fate. No wonder many immortal sect leaders are flocking to my Taoist friend."

"oh?"

Jiang Zhou was naturally happy about his entry into the country, but Zhang Wenjin's words contained some hints that made him put it aside for the time being and said, "Brother Taoist, does this mean some advice?"

Zhang Wenjin nodded and said with a smile: "Do you know, fellow Taoist Jiang, that the five religions are sects and the immortal sects discuss matters together?"

Jiang Zhou said: "Brother Taoist is referring to Mi Lun Xiaohui?"

"good."

Zhang Wenjin said: "Fellow Taoist really knows."

"It is said that there are nine heavenly mandates, the king's family and the Ji family, the nine and nine are unified, there are differences between heaven and man, the pure and the turbid are divided into two parts, and the upper and lower are orderly."

He looked at Jiang Zhou and said, "This is what all the sects of the Milun Hui discussed and decided upon."

"There are nine destiny, the king is the king, the nine are one, there are differences between heaven and man..."
