Ji Yuan picked up the teapot and poured himself another cup of hot tea. This time he didn't put it directly into his stomach, but slowly let the taste of it grow.
At the same time, he also took out a gold ingot from his sleeve that Mr. Zhao had forced on him before, pushed it in front of the monk Huixin, and motioned for the other person to put it away.
This can be regarded as a reward for inviting the other party to rid the body of the young master of the Zhao family.
When Huixin saw this, she was stunned for a moment, then smiled bitterly and took the gold ingot. Even if she is a Buddhist monk, she cannot avoid the expenses on the way to practice.
For a poor family, a gold ingot may be a wealth that is difficult to earn in a lifetime, but for a monk, it is just a period of expenses.
Whether it is spiritual food and medicine for daily consumption, elixirs for increasing Taoism, or resources consumed during practice, these things cost the most money.
"Even if he is a poor monk, he still owes his fellow Taoist a favor."
Huixin put her hands together and recited the Buddha's name.
The first favor was when the young monk recommended the Taoist priest to the young master of the Zhao family. This seemed to be a blessing. He could earn a lot of money and accumulate incense in the Zhao family.
.
But as a Buddhist monk, it is impossible for Hui Xin not to see what kind of cultivation it would be to be able to implant such a pure evil thing in the body of the young master of the Zhao family.
An evil object in the late stage of enlightenment may cause disaster and turn a good thing into a bad thing if you are not careful, so it is considered a favor.
As for the second favor, it is this gold ingot.
All in all, no matter how many reasonable reasons there are, they can't hide the fact that Ji Yuan's move was just to get him a share of the pie and earn a share of the expenses for his cultivation.
Otherwise, Ji Yuan can completely eliminate the evil spirit from the young master of the Zhao family by himself. Even if the method is a little rough, it will bring some hidden dangers to the boy who is affected by the evil spirit, but no one can say anything about it.
.
No matter what, this is a kind act to save people.
As for the evil things that may be attracted, they can be left to the martial arts of the Zhao family to deal with them.
"The road to spiritual practice is long and long, and you and I are not fighting for the same path. It is also a good thing to have more fellow Taoists who can support each other."
Ji Yuan smiled slightly and didn't really take this seriously.
And his state of mind also made Hui Xin feel a lot of emotions.
There are thousands of avenues, but there is only one path of practice. If you want to go further, you cannot easily let go of every bit of accumulation. Even for some extreme monks, it is best to have only yourself on the path of practice, and not everyone else.
The death light would be perfect.
Not to mention sharing the opportunity, if you can avoid interfering with each other, you can be regarded as a righteous person with excellent character.
"But if you do something wrong this time, it means you have good intentions and do bad things."
Ji Yuan suddenly sighed and frowned slightly while drinking the hot water that contained some spiritual energy.
He thought for a while, then under Huixin's doubtful eyes, he slowly said: "Although I don't know the specific reason, this evil thing is obviously targeting the Zhao family, and no one knows what it will do next.
matter."
With his cultivation in the later stage of enlightenment, he is definitely considered a great master in Qianyu City, but it is still a bit whimsical to use this to target the Zhao family.
The Zhao family's ability to become a family of three sects and the most powerful force in terms of reputation and strength within hundreds of miles is not just based on deep financial resources.
The Zhao family has no shortage of means and force, and the seemingly amiable Mr. Zhao knows this very well.
"This matter is due to poor thinking by this humble monk. If any danger arises, fellow Daoist Ji, just leave."
Hui Xin looked ashamed. Seeing the boy in pain before, he couldn't help but feel sympathy.
I just didn't expect that what I thought was a good deed might lead to some bad things.
After all, although the Zhao family is not afraid of an evil creature in the late enlightenment stage, Ji Yuan cannot always live in the Zhao family, and there are no masters in Xuantian Temple, so it is easy for him to be maliciously retaliated against.
"Let's talk about these things later."
Ji Yuan shook his head, suddenly changed the subject, and discussed the next matter with Huixin.
It was not difficult for the two of them to get rid of evil spirits, so they focused more on how to draw out the evil things and let the martial arts men of the Zhao family kill them.
While the two were talking, Zhao Shengcai, who had received a talisman earlier and was instructed by Ji Yuan to walk around the Zhao family mansion for a time or two, returned and handed over the intact talisman.
Seeing this, Ji Yuan felt a little headache. The fact that the talisman paper was intact meant that the haunting ghost was not hidden in the house, and its true body was probably hidden somewhere in the city.
In this case, it is not that easy to find it out.
A few hours later, when night fell, the young master of the Zhao family woke up from his deep sleep. After washing up, he was taken to Yayuan by Mr. Zhao.
"Zhao Yuebai thanks Taoist Master for saving his life!"
The boy, who was about seven or eight years old, bowed down to the end in a decent manner.
Not long after, in the elegant pavilion where the tables and chairs had been moved, Huixin and Zhao Yuebai sat opposite each other on the floor. They closed their eyes one after another. The former thought for a while and then began to recite the Buddhist Bible.
Bursts of Sanskrit sounds came out from the elegant pavilion, and a sense of peace filled the hearts of the people here.
Ji Yuan whispered to himself, "Infinite Heavenly Lord," and while Huixin was using Buddhist scriptures to help Zhao Yuebai get rid of evil spirits, he was also looking at the young master of the Zhao family.
Mr. Zhao had several wives and concubines in his life, including three sons and one daughter. However, when he was young, he traveled around the world and encountered revenge from his enemies. In the end, only one daughter was left to marry far away from the county.
I don't know if it was because he got older and his anger was gone, but by doing good deeds and accumulating virtue every day, he actually had a son in old age. When he returned from a long trip, he brought back his infant son.
Mr. Zhao dotes on this handsome young son with red lips and white teeth. He is never stingy with a lot of money and feeds him all kinds of medicinal foods and spiritual things regardless of cost.
Because of this, although Zhao Yuebai is only seven or eight years old now, his physical condition is better than that of an ordinary young man, and the energy accumulated in his body is comparable to that of a martial artist who has trained hard for more than ten years.
If you practice with such a foundation, whether it is martial arts or Taoism, you will definitely make rapid progress. In a very short period of time, it will surpass the years or even ten years of hard work of ordinary monks or warriors.
I heard that Mr. Zhao is now looking for the best enlightenment techniques and cultivation techniques. He hopes that his youngest son can embark on the path of eternal life and enlightenment, instead of suffering all kinds of hardships like a martial artist in the world.
"I wonder if after Yuebai becomes enlightened and embarks on the path of spiritual practice, can he practice medical skills and alchemy with the little Taoist priest?"
Mr. Zhao suddenly spoke and looked at the young man beside him with a smile.
Hearing this, Ji Yuan just smiled slightly, neither agreeing nor rejecting, leaving some leeway.
With the reputation and power of the Zhao family, it is naturally impossible for the most favored young master to become a disciple of a Taoist priest, and he will naturally be sent to a famous sect in the future.
But before that, if you can learn some medical skills and alchemy from him, you can also accumulate some foundation for your future practice.
In the final analysis, what Mr. Zhao is interested in is Ji Yuan's unique alchemy method in Qianyu City. As for things like medical skills, it is just incidental.
The reason why he neither agreed nor refused was simply waiting for Mr. Zhao to make an offer to see if the Zhao family could come up with something that would make him excited.
If so, it doesn't matter if you teach the art of alchemy, as long as it doesn't involve your own fundamentals.
After all, it’s not shabby to earn some cultivation resources. This chapter has been completed!
