C98 Old Daoist Lius departure (1/2)
After exiting the hospital, Wan Lixing suddenly noticed that Taoist Liu's face was somewhat pale, and immediately asked: ”Leader, what's going on? It can't be that what I just did implicated you, right? ”
Taoist Liu waved his hand and laughed: ”It's nothing. I just heard what you said and had some feelings towards it.
”Hand and foot?” Wan Lixing was startled, he knew that the Taoist Liu must have helped him out with something.
Taoist Liu nodded his head, and said: ”No need to mind, it's just a method to make some people lose their memories, that's all. This is a method used by many Buddhist disciples, I once learned a bit from Kaiju, and today I have brought it to use.”
Wan Lixing was shocked, and naturally understood what the Taoist Liu meant by those words. When he attacks this time, it would probably cause a huge commotion in the mortal world, and it would be great if the Underworld did not punish him. If he wanted to develop in the future, it would definitely be extremely difficult. Wan Lixing also understood in his heart that if this was a simple action, Taoist Liu would have made his move a long time ago. However, Taoist Liu did not have it.
”Taoist …” Wan Lixing said gratefully. This Taoist Liu who was normally unreliable would definitely not lie at this time.
”Stop chattering and focus on driving. Just treat me to a meal of roasted chicken from now on.” Taoist Liu closed his eyes, leaned on his seat and said.
Wan Lixing nodded. He did not know why, but when he heard Taoist Liu's voice, he felt that it was a little strange …
After driving for half an hour, Wan Lixing drove out of the city, and drove the convertible onto the highway. After driving for another three hours, they would reach the Linhai City, but the scenery along the road would become much more monotonous.
”Little bastard, I need to ask you a question.” Taoist Liu suddenly said.
Wan Lixing was startled, and did not say anything. Taoist Liu's tone of voice was fake, originally Wan Lixing thought that he had overused himself, but now it seemed that it was not the case.
”In your opinion, what is a god?” Taoist Liu muttered to himself for a while and asked.
Wan Lixing slowed down his car, and for a moment, he did not know how to answer this question. In the human world, there would be people who would talk about gods and ghosts, but they would not be able to say what the gods and ghosts were. Even if Wan Lixing knew that the immortals truly existed, he did not know how to summarize this group of immortals.
After thinking for a while, Wan Lixing parked the car on the side and said: ”Daoist Immortals, to me, you look like a group of people flying around in the sky.”
Taoist Liu looked at Wan Lixing and asked: ”Is that all?”
Wan Lixing nodded his head, this was his most direct impression of the deities, since he could not think of a reason, then he might as well not think about it. Some people said that the deities had all kinds of mystical techniques, but Wan Lixing thought that if they could fly, then even if they could throw bricks in the sky, it would still have a lot of power. At least, when he was young, he always felt that the so-called immortals were flying around in the sky and throwing rocks down from the sky.
The Taoist Liu laughed, ”You are really different from the others. Indeed, immortals do not have a certain definition, and there are many different immortals in the Three Realms. There are even some who have the same kind of ability as immortals. The reason I'm asking you this question is because I want to ask you what do you think of the number one taxi driver of the Three Realms that you are talking about, compared to those flying immortals that you are talking about? ”
Hearing this question, Wan Lixing revealed a pondering look. He did not know why the Taoist Liu would ask this question, but Wan Lixing knew that he had never thought about it before. He had always wanted to climb, to search for the secrets of the entire Three Realms, but he had never found an accurate path.
Wan Lixing thought of a story that Sima Xiangru had once told him.
It was rumored that in the Three Realms, there was a man known as the Exquisite Hammer, who was known as the number one blacksmith of the Three Realms. Later on, someone asked this Exquisite Hammer if he wanted to become a god. After all, he already had enough status, and as long as he used the relationship in his hands, he had a high chance of success. When Exquisite Hammer heard this suggestion, he also felt that it made sense and applied to the Three Realms Immortal management committee. The assessment proposed by the management committee was that if Exquisite Hammer did not plan to cultivate to the desired level through hard work, then he would have to create a treasure sword that could shake the Three Realms within three years.
When Exquisite Hammer heard this, he was overjoyed. After returning home, he started to gather all kinds of good treasures and then locked himself in a room. Aside from eating time everyday, he had also been forging this treasured sword.
A year later, Exquisite Hammer failed thirty times, exhausting all of his treasures before continuing to gather them and forge them again. After three years had passed, the Exquisite Hammer had failed a hundred times, and they were declared to have failed the examination.
Exquisite Hammer was disheartened. When he returned to his house and saw the remaining ingredients, he was unresigned in his heart. Why was it that even though he was the best blacksmith in the Three Realms, he could not create a true good sword? With grief and indignation, Exquisite Hammer decided to give it a final try. But unexpectedly, it was this time, that Exquisite Hammer spent all his effort on this sword, and miraculously forged a divine sword! The moment this sword appeared, the entire three realms began to tremble. The roars of dragons and tigers rang out incessantly, causing people to feel a chill in their hearts!
But no one would have thought that Exquisite Hammer would reject becoming an immortal. Instead, he would give the treasured sword he forged to the examiner of the Celestial Board of Governors, Wen Mu Bodhisattva.
