If he was willing to receive guests, he wouldn’t have spent twenty thousand yuan a month to hire Yang Ying to help in the first place.
And receiving incense guests requires not only a patient personality, but also a certain understanding of the Taoist way.
“Who would be more suitable…” Xuanqing pondered in his mind.
While thinking about whether to hire locally or go back to the school and hire, as long as the money is in place, there is no one he can’t hire.
Suddenly.
A flash of inspiration came to Xuanqing’s mind.
Why bother recruiting from outside when he could just enlighten a spirit creature directly?
Compared to the complex-minded humans, the spirits enlightened are like blank sheets of paper, and you can freely fill in information.
The more he thought about it, the more feasible the idea seemed.
“Yes, better to enlighten a spirit creature!”
Xuanqing murmured softly.
As for the target of enlightenment, he has already decided, specifically the locust tree in the courtyard.
The locust tree is already one of the tree species most susceptible to spirituality, and this particular locust tree has been growing for more than two hundred years, making it very suitable for enlightenment.
Thinking so in his heart.
He then left the room again, heading to the courtyard.
Front yard.
The more than ten meters high locust tree has a tall and straight trunk, majestic and vigorous, with dense branches and leaves covering half of the courtyard.
Moonlight penetrates the leaves of the locust tree, casting dappled patterns on the ground.
At this moment.
Xuanqing was standing in the courtyard, his gaze fixed on the towering locust tree.
Seeing the branch that stretches out to the Main Hall of the tree, he couldn’t help but recall the days he sat cross-legged on top reciting scriptures.
“Locust tree, oh locust tree, you and 1 do have a connection!”
Xuanqing gently touched the trunk.
He had cooled off under this tree, peed, and knocked on the wooden fish and recited scriptures in the tree, but now he was going to enlighten this locust tree into a spirit creature.
Enlightenment is a common basic skill, and most cultivation techniques have it, and the Food-Qi Decree naturally has it as well.
To perform the art of enlightenment, the most important thing is the presence of Spiritual Qi, or the power of incense fire can be an alternative.
There is no Spiritual Qi in the Real World, so naturally, he can only choose the power of incense fire.
With a thought.
A bead appeared in Xuanqing’s hand, its whole body green and round, exuding a mysterious aura.
It was the ‘Gathering Qi Bead’ placed on the God tablet.
Moreover.
After these days, it had accumulated a lot of incense fire power. If it were to be converted into ingots, it would probably amount to several thousand.
“Release!”
Xuanqing threw the Gathering Qi Bead out of his hand.
The Gathering Qi Bead floated slowly in the air, releasing bursts of light, making it particularly noticeable in the dark night.
Humming-
Centered on the Gathering Qi Bead, mysterious ripples form, breaking the calm of the lake, causing ripples to splash.
Now is the time!
Xuanqing’s eyes focused.
His right hand swung, and his index finger pointed at the trunk of the locust tree.
At the next moment.
The incense fire power within the Gathering Qi Bead, as if under the influence of an inexplicable gravitational force, was released all at once and surged into the locust tree.
Swishing-
The huge locust tree’s branches and trunk shook continuously, making a rustling sound as they collided.
The huge movement.
Yang Ying inside the side room not far away sensed it naturally, but she didn’t have the slightest intention of probing.
Because she knew very well in her mind that some things were better off being left unclear.
An hour later.
Front yard.
Originally, a locust tree more than ten meters tall, under the action of a large amount of incense fire, directly jumped to more than twenty meters in height. The lush branches and leaves have blocked the entire front yard, and even part of the Main Hall.
More importantly.
Under the locust tree.
There is now a chubby little boy of about four or five years old, without a single piece of clothing.
With his chubby cheeks and plump little hands, he innocently tilts his head while sucking on his toes.
“Yah…yah…pa…pa”
Seeing this scene,
Xuanqing smiles slightly, extends his right hand, and pinches his thumb and middle finger to give the chubby boy a flick on the head.
Thud-
The crisp and resonant sound is especially pleasant in the quiet night.
“Ouch-” The chubby boy covers his head with his little hand, looking so wronged that he seems about to cry.
However,
Together with the pain, a stream of information enters the chubby boy’s mind.
Qingping Temple… Incense guests… Can’t harm people… Obey the law… Wear clothes…
All sorts of common sense are forcibly stuffed into the bewildered little fat boy’s mind, making him understand what his duties are.
Finally,
“Sir!”
A cry of “Sir” comes from the chubby boy’s mouth, and the originally confused and turbid look in his eyes has been replaced by clarity and wisdom.
“Hmm!”
Xuanqing nods slightly.
Thinking about it,
This little fellow was just born and needs a name.
“Your material body is a locust tree, and you were born in Qingping Temple, so you shall be called Huai Qingyun!” Xuanqing caresses the top of Huai Qingyun’s head.
“Huai… Qingyun, 1 have a name now, it’s Huai.. Qing.. Yun!”
The chubby boy is first taken aback, then starts jumping around, his happiness comparable to the scene when the Monkey King was given a name by Bodhi Ancestor.
However,
Xuanqing can’t help but hold his forehead in speechlessness.
Because,
At this moment, Huai Qingyun has just transformed, and he’s not wearing anything. As he continues to jump around, some indescribable little objects swing along with him.
The scene is so beautiful that one can’t bear to look directly at it!
Stop!”
Xuanqing’s facial expression is not looking good as he scolds, “Since you have transformed into a human, you should understand what shame is. Hurry up and conjure some clothes!”
As spirits, even if they have just transformed, they are naturally able to conjure clothing.
However,
Hearing these words, Huai Qingyun lowers his head in grievance and rubs his fingertips.
“Sir, 1… I have no mana.”
Hearing this,
Xuanqing frowns slightly.
Indeed,
This is the real world, a world without spiritual qi. Even if he used incense to transform the true spirit of the locust tree into a human form, he could not absorb spiritual qi to create mana.
Of course, there is another way, and that is to get more incense for Huai
Qingyun to absorb, which can also be turned into mana.
But in that case, it goes against Xuanqing’s original intention.
The reason why he enlightened Huai Qingyun was to make him serve the incense guests and earn incense for him. If he needs to consume additional incense, it would be better to hire an ordinary person.
Anyway, all he needs to do is water the locust tree normally, let it have sunlight for photosynthesis, and there’s no need to waste incense.
With that in mind,
Xuanqing takes out a set of clothes prepared for Fat Ya from the game backpack.
Huai Qingyun and Fat Ya’s size is similar, so the clothes fit well when put on.
“Put this on first, and tomorrow 1’11 take you down the mountain to have two
Taoist robes custom-made!” Xuanqing throws the clothes to him.
Ah… It’s girls’ clothes-” Huai Qingyun hesitates a bit, but after looking at his own master’s displeased gaze, he quickly receives and puts on the clothes. Having clothes to wear is better than not having any.
Having received information, he understands these basic common sense of life and naturally knows it’s shameful not to wear clothes.
“Come on, follow me back to my room. There’s something else for you to do in awhile!”
“Yes, Sir!”
