Chapter 8 The reincarnation of the God of Luck?

"You said that learning skills from you would give me the ability to protect myself. Don't I, a Confucian disciple, have the ability to protect myself? What we Confucians cultivate is the great righteousness and fearlessness of gods and ghosts.

Not to mention, you who practice Taoism have three disasters, nine tribulations and ten calamities, and you also have to look at your innate understanding. Not everyone can practice Taoism!"

Guo Xuesong snorted coldly. Seeing Liu Dongzhu opening her mouth and about to say something, he knew what she wanted to say and spoke first:
"Dong Zhu, I know that because of the incident with that beast, you have caused a great misunderstanding among us scholars. I don't want your family to follow the same path as that beast.

But Dongzhu, you have to understand that Daxia has great preferential treatment for scholars. Do you really want Ping An to be a farmer all his life?"

It’s not that he looked down on farmers, but in Daxia, farmers were the bottom of society and anyone could bully them, so many farmers placed their hopes on their offspring.

It is hoped that they can pass the imperial examination. Even if they do not seek to become the top scorer, at least they will have the title of scholar or even juren, and they will be able to receive more or less preferential treatment from the country.

"Mr. Xiucai, you are right. People like us who practice Taoism rely on innate enlightenment, unlike you scholars. As long as you are willing to learn, you can do it. But Mr. Wang's grandson is likely to be a congenital Taoist. If even he can't practice Taoism, who else can practice Taoism?"

Taoist Xuanqing snorted in dissatisfaction, his face full of envy that was difficult to conceal. As soon as he was born, he could draw the surrounding spiritual energy into his body. If this is not an innate Taoist body, then what else could it be? He said arrogantly:
"As for what you said, people who study can succeed, so why can't I succeed as a cultivator? If I want to succeed, I can take the path of an immortal official!"

Immortal officials are official positions assigned by Daxia to those who practice Taoism. From provincial capitals to county towns, there are immortal officials in charge. In addition to slaying demons and preventing demons from causing trouble in the territory, they also have the duty of praying for rain.

It is a first-class and distinguished status!
Guo Xuesong sneered and said, "Master Xuanqing, you are right. If Ping An practices Taoism, he can take the path of an immortal official. However, this path is much more difficult than the imperial examination. Moreover, you are just a wild Taoist priest in a wild Taoist temple. You are of no help to Ping An on the path of an immortal official!"

"you……"

Taoist Priest Xuanqing was immediately furious. As the saying goes, don't hit someone in the face. His Taoist temple, Xuanqing Taoist Temple, is located on Hutou Mountain next to Hutou Valley. He founded it himself and it doesn't even have any history. It can be said to be a wild Taoist temple.

Otherwise, he wouldn't have fallen to the point of having to make a living by performing rituals to pray for the souls of the dead at other people's funerals.

"Mr. Xiucai, Taoist Priest Xuanqing, please stop arguing!"

Although Wang Lin was secretly happy in his heart, whether it was Guo Xuesong or Taoist Xuanqing, they were both top figures in Hutougou, and even the village chief did not dare to provoke them. However, they were almost fighting for his grandson. However, he could not let the two quarrel any longer, so he hurriedly said:
"Our Ping An is still young. Even if you accept him as your apprentice, it will be useless. Why don't you wait until he grows up and let him make his choice?"

"no problem!"

Taoist Xuanqing couldn't wait to say.

Although he was a wild Taoist priest in a wild Taoist temple, he also learned skills from a master in an orthodox Taoist temple and learned the orthodox methods of Taoist cultivation, which were passed down.

If someone told him that they wanted to be his apprentice, they would have to consider it. He would be lucky if he didn't just slap the other person in the face, let alone agree.

But if this person had a congenital Taoist body... not only would he not be angry, but he would be extremely happy instead.

If he could become the master of the innate Taoist body, even if he could only give enlightenment, he might be able to leave a name in their Taoism.

Guo Xuesong smiled and said, "Brother Wang, I have no problem either!"

Taoist Xuanqing turned around and was about to leave, continuing to recite scriptures for Wang Ruhai to transcend. After all, his quarrel with Guo Xuesong just now made him a laughing stock in front of people around him. However, when he saw Wang Pingan out of the corner of his eye, his gaze stopped suddenly.

Subsequently.

Taoist Xuanqing took out a yellowed booklet from his pocket and handed it to Liu Dongzhu, saying, "Madam Wang, this book, The Purple Qi Sutra, is the most basic method of refining Qi in Taoism. It comes from the Purple Yang Palace. Madam Wang, please give it to your child when he is five or six years old. It will lay a good foundation for him and help him have a healthy body!"

"Thank you, Taoist Xuanqing!" Liu Dongzhu took the "Purple Qi Sutra" handed over by Taoist Xuanqing.

“This is my gift to my undiscipled children!”

Taoist Xuanqing chuckled and turned to look at Guo Xuesong, his face full of provocation.

"Ding! Taoist Xuanqing gives you a copy of the Purple Qi Sutra, and you will receive the Purple Qi Sutra [Introduction]!"

Guo Xuesong ignored Taoist Xuanqing's provocation, but still took out a yellowed book from his arms, handed it over, and said with a smile: "Dongzhu, this is the Thousand Characters I wrote. Let Ping An carry it with him. It can bless him to grow up safely and not be harmed by evil spirits!"

"Master Guo..."

Liu Dongzhu looked embarrassed. This time he did not accept it directly like he did before. Instead, he wanted to refuse. It was not because he knew the extraordinary nature of this "Thousand Character Classic".

Instead, she hoped that her own Ping An could worship Taoist Xuan Qing as his master instead of Guo Xuesong!

It’s not that there is anything wrong with Guo Xuesong, but when she studies with Guo Xuesong, she will think of Wang Ruhai. She has already lost her husband and doesn’t want to lose her son again.

Guo Xuesong looked at Liu Dongzhu's appearance. How could he not see what she was thinking? He sighed slightly, and his hatred for Wang Ruhai increased a little more.

He just doesn't want such a good daughter-in-law. He is worse than an animal!

"Dongzhu, this is a gift from the scholar, why don't you take it quickly!"

Zhang Guihua glared at Liu Dongzhu and snatched the "Thousand Character Classic" that Guo Xuesong was about to take back. It was not because she was blinded by money and knew that this "Thousand Character Classic" was a valuable treasure, but she was attracted by the four big words "grow up safely" in Guo Xuesong's words.

now.

His son Wang Ruhai was completely dead, and Wang Ping'an was the only child left in the Wang family. Naturally, they hoped that their grandson would grow up safely.

Not to mention what Taoist Xuanqing and Dong Qing said, that her grandson was the reincarnation of a good man and might very likely attract demons and monsters. Even with the sword energy given by Dong Qing and Taoist Xuanqing's jade pendant, her heart was still full of worries.

Now that she had something that could help her grandson grow up safely, how could she give it up?
“Ding! You received a copy of the Thousand Character Classic written with great aura from Guo Xuesong, and gained the skill: Thousand Character Classic [Introduction]!”

A series of mechanical and cold voices rang in Wang Ping'an's mind. Wang Ping'an was overjoyed. Just now, he was afraid that because of his talent: his kind heart, he was misunderstood as the reincarnation of a good man.

Let him gain the talent: Dao Heart, talent: Sword Bone and skill: Sword Cultivation.

did not expect……

Use skills: Sword-cultivation technique to attract the spiritual energy wandering between heaven and earth, which makes Taoist Xuanqing misunderstand him as a congenital Taoist body and want to accept him as a disciple. Scholar Guo Xuesong comes to snatch him away, and lets him obtain the skills: Purple Qi Sutra and the skill: Thousand Character Classic.

"Could it be that I am the reincarnation of the God of Luck?"

Wang Ping'an couldn't help but feel secretly happy.
