There’s No Way My Dad Is A Legendary Cultivator - Chapter 151
Chapter 151 A Strange Pair of Master and Disciple
Looking at the little girl’s departing back, He Xiangjiang was a little lost in thought.
How could someone come up to press him down the first time they met.
The little girl’s domineering attitude caused the young Taoist priest to not dare to raise his head to look at her just now.
He didn’t remember her appearance clearly, but he was beaten up for nothing and also received one candy.
He Xiangjiang stood up, wiped his snot, and looked at the spirit stone in his hand.
He stood by the pond and giggled.
Wan’er was on her way back to the school.
She kept thinking about the young Taoist priest who was acting strangely just now.
Although that young Taoist priest was silly, his skin was also very dark.
But he still looked pretty good.
There was also that old and faded Taoist robe on his body.
The little girl made up her mind that the next time she saw him, she would ask her father to buy a better piece of cloth for the young Taoist priest.
That way, the next time she kicks him, even if she dirtied his clothes, he wouldn’t cry anymore.
The little girl nodded as she walked as if she felt that her idea was particularly mature.
When she returned to the classroom, it was already after school.
Wan’er stood at the classroom door, waiting for her two younger sisters to come out and walk home together.
After Yan’er and Liu’er came out, they saw Wan’er standing at the door.
“Wan’er, you ran off to skip class again, right?”
Yan’er asked Wan’er.
Wan’er chuckled and scratched her face.
“Same old rules. You’re not allowed to tell daddy.”
Yan’er shook her head helplessly.
“I really can’t do anything to you.”
Then, she held Liu’er’s hand and shook it.
“Liu’er, you better not learn from her.”
Liu’er widened her eyes and nodded very seriously.
“Yes, yes. Liu’er won’t learn from Sister Wan’er.”
Wan’er walked over to the other side and pulled Liu’er’s other hand.
“Hehe, let’s go home!”
The two of them were dragged by Wan’er and trotted home.
The young Taoist priest returned to the small bamboo house arranged by the academy. After pushing the door open, an old Taoist priest who looked like he was in his sixties could be seen.
The old Taoist priest was lying on a bamboo recliner.
He Xiangjiang asked the old Taoist priest as soon as he entered the house.
“Master, did you manage to borrow money today?”
The old Taoist priest sat on the recliner with his eyes closed and shook his head.
He Xiangjiang said helplessly.
“Master, why do you always look like nothing has happened?”
“If we can’t borrow money, how can we get the money to go back to the Taoist temple?”
He Xiangjiang started to waver.
He didn’t know whether it was reliable for him to formally acknowledge the old Taoist priest in front of him as his master half a month ago.
If it wasn’t for his mother’s illness and the old Taoist priest promised to leave some money for his family.
He would not want to leave his mother and father and go to the Taoist temple that the old Taoist priest called the number one temple in the world.
In any case, he had acknowledged the old Taoist priest as his master in such a muddle-headed manner.
When the old Taoist priest brought him out of his hometown, he lowered his head and told him a sentence seriously.
“Xiangjiang, Master’s money has been left to your family. I do not have any more money.”
At first, He Xiangjiang thought that this old Taoist priest was trying to test him.
But after walking for a while, he realized something
This old man was serious.
Without money, there would be no travel expenses.
Originally, the journey from that small town to Fusheng City was only about ten days.
But the master and disciple had to walk for half a month.
On the way, no matter how hungry or tired he was, the old Taoist priest always looked indifferent and calm.
He didn’t feel anxious at all.
When they arrived at Fusheng City, the old Taoist priest said that he had an old friend there.
He said that he could come over and visit to see if he could borrow some money for the traveling expenses.
Now that he didn’t manage to borrow the money, the old Taoist priest still acted as if nothing had happened, but He Xiangjiang couldn’t sit still.
He Xiangjiang said angrily.
“Master!”
The old Taoist priest slowly opened his eyes and looked at the dark-skinned young Taoist priest.
“Xiangjiang, when you become more mature, you will know that I am not acting as if nothing had happened. This is called strategizing.”
He Xiangjiang obviously didn’t believe it. He gave the old man with white hair and beard a side-eye.
The old Taoist priest said to He Xiangjiang.
“Hey! Don’t doubt it. Think about it carefully. We were almost starving all the way here, but didn’t we manage to survive in the end?”
He Xiangjiang replied.
“That’s because we were lucky. We kept encountering kind-hearted people to help us.”
The old Taoist priest sat up and stared at He Xiangjiang. “Then how do you know that there are no kind-hearted people this time?”
“Where did you go today? Tell Master who you met.”
He Xiangjiang was helpless. He moved a small bamboo chair to the side and sat down.
Then he said to the old Taoist priest. “There’s no point thinking about it. No kind-hearted person gave me a penny today.”
“Not even a single penny.”
The young Taoist priest raised a finger and waved it in front of the old Taoist priest.
The old Taoist priest chuckled.
“I’m just asking if you met anyone. I’m not asking you about those.”
He Xiangjiang took back the finger and thought for a moment.
“I met a girl about my age.”
“But she wasn’t a kind person. She beat me up right away.”
He Xiangjiang sighed as he spoke.
The old Taoist priest laughed.
“What? Which boy could be bullied by a little
girl?”
“Then you didn’t fight back?”
He Xiangjiang shook his head.
“I didn’t dare. That person was fierce and strong.”
“I’m even afraid to look her in the eye.”
When he said these words, He Xiangjiang was obviously a little resentful. He gritted his teeth and said this.
After saying this, he looked at the beam of the bamboo house and quietly laughed again.
“But I took the opportunity when she wasn’t paying attention to sneak a glance at her.”
“I don’t remember her appearance clearly, but I remember that she was very beautiful.” The old Taoist priest touched his grizzled beard and teased the young Taoist priest. “Do you like her?”
He Xiangjiang turned around and said angrily. “Master!”
The old Taoist priest quickly laughed and waved his hand.
“It was just a joke. Don’t take it so seriously.” “What happened after that?”
The old Taoist priest continued to ask.
He Xiangjiang continued to speak.
“Later, I wanted to sneak away, but I was found out and was beaten up by her again.”
“But fortunately, I was smart and tricked her.”
“I cried loudly, and she stopped hitting me. She even gave me a stone as compensation.”
When he talked about the part where he cried, the young Taoist priest was obviously proud of himself.
The old Taoist priest was looking at his disciple, who was feeling so happy even after he was beaten up.
He didn’t know whether he should be happy or regretful.
“Come on, come on. Just admit that you cried because you were beaten up. I won’t laugh at
you.”
The young Taoist priest rolled his eyes at his master, then took out the spirit stone that Wan’er had given him.
The old Taoist priest took the spirit stone.
He smiled.
“See, I told you before that this is called strategizing.”
He Xiangjiang saw his master’s expression and asked curiously.
“Is this stone very valuable?”
The old Taoist priest nodded.
“It’s enough to cover our expenses on the way from Fusheng City to the boarding point of the ferry.”
He Xiangjiang didn’t know how precious this spirit stone was. Half a month ago, he was just an ordinary person who hadn’t even gone out of his hometown.
And he used secular money…
