Chapter 412 Heaven and Earth Symbolism (1/2)
Chen Jingchan did not realized that he was smacked in between a legendary duel, he said, ”How would one jug of water produce three feet and three inches of rain?”
Shen Lian packed his fishing rod and leisurely came downwards from the rocks filled with moss. Like a light smoke, he landed in front of Chen Jinchan. Chen Jinchan realized that beyond the oversize Dao robe, Shen Lian's right hand was all bone with no flesh.
It was a big contrast compared to his radiant face and sparkling skin.
Chen Jinchan was stunned but he did not probe further.
Shen Lian noticed that Chen Jinchan's eyes were fixed on his fleshless right hand but he did not mind at all. He said, ”If I say it will work, then it will work. Even if it does not work, it will work.”
The words sounded light but the content was shocking, just like a devine and demon dictator of the heaven and earth whose words were obeyed by all beings.
Chen Jinchan felt bleesed to his soul and asked Shen Lian, ”Teacher, please help me. I will obey your orders.”
Shen Lian looked at him and smiled, ”How do you know I have orders for you?”
Chen Jinchan let out a deep sighed and said, ”You gifted me the dragon carp and taught me the breathing method yesterday. I thought about it and it's strange that you would treat me so well when we have never cross path before this. I was thinking that I might be useful for you.”
Shen Lian asked, ”When did you come to such thoughts?”
Chen Jinchan lowered his head and said, ”I am a foolish person. I have only just thought about it.”
Shen Lian smiled ambiguously and said, ”You have probably guessed that it is not a coincidence that the Mountain God sent you here and handed you an impossible task, and then coincidentally meeting me here. How can there be such a coincidence in the world? Even if there were, it was man-made. You are guessing if I know the Mountain God and if we have any feud between each other. Am I right?”
Chen Jinchan lifted his head to see Shen Lian's deep calm eyes that looked like the waters of Ruo Shui after a storm. The eyes looked knowledgeable and any of his intentions were not concealable in front of this legendary person. He lowered his voice and said, ”Yes, it was exactly as you said.”
Shen Lian calmly said, ”Taishang was also Laozi, the accomplished could be teachers. Considering that you addressed me as your teacher, it showed your sincerity towards me. Would you want to be a disciple of my school?”
Chen Jinchan hesitated, ”It is extremely fortunate if I could be a disciple of your school. But I was born in Mount Zhong and bred in the Chen Village.I will need to first get the blessings of the Mountain God Master and the noble witch. I do not dare to overstep the both of them.”
On top of that, he has only just met Shen Lian and he was still pissed at the Mountain God Master for pushing him down the mountains. Moreover, encountering Shen Lian at the bottom of the mountain was definitely not coincidence.
Considering all that factors, and moreover Shen Lian was an outsider. Maybe Shen Lian had hidden agendas against the Mountain God Master and noble witch. Chen Jinchan was definitely not the a cruel and unscrupulous person even if the Mountain God Master treated him like grass. He has benefited from the protection of the Mountain God Master and if he turned his back against him, he would not be any better than a beast.
Shen Lian did not say much, ”If that is what you think, I'll first help you with the water so you can fulfill Chen Beidou's orders.”
As he finished his sentence, a huge hurricane came sprawling up from the ground. Chen Jinchan was not able to withstand the force and landed on a thousand years old pine tree. He held on the tree tightly but set his gaze at Shen Lian's position.
