"What's the question? If you want to ask, ask."

"You are a practitioner, and that Feng Junzi is also a practitioner. You two are often together. What is the relationship? Are they brothers of the same school? If so, your junior brother is much better than you."

Her question really stumbled upon me. How dare I let Feng Junzi be my junior brother? He didn't agree if he wanted to call him Master! But he should be my alchemy master. Almost all the things I know were taught by him, but he didn't let me say it, nor did he let me say the names of "Four Gates and Twelve Levels of the Tower" or "Three Dreams in the World". Only Shang Yunfei around me knew that he had taught me, but after I got started, Feng Junzi taught me specifically what he taught me.

"He is my classmate, has a good relationship with me, and is also a practitioner, not my fellow brother. In fact, there is another practitioner in our class, who is a disciple of the living Buddha of Guangjiao Temple, named Shang Yunfei." I only had such half-true and half-false answers to her.

Sister Ziying: "I have heard of that little lama who has not received the precepts. He is quite well-known in the Wucheng practice world. It is difficult for these masters to be common. In your small middle school class, two of them have been released, and you have become three! This is simply amazing. If you say it, no one believes it."

I felt a little incredible when I heard Sister Ziying say this. No one believed it, but there was no need to tell others about this kind of thing. This is probably the principle that birds of a feather flock together, and people are divided into groups. There are quite a lot of experts I saw in Qi Yunguan today. At this time, I suddenly remembered Mr. Zhang and tried to ask Sister Ziying: "Sister Ziying, do you know what Mr. Zhang is from? It is the Mr. Zhang who asked Zhang Zhi to give me something last time."

I know that Sister Ziying knows Mr. Zhang. Last time I was "unexpected" by the Lingling Seal in Zezhong, Mr. Zhang had a strange conversation with her. After today's incident, it was not only Mr. Zhang, but also Sister Ziying himself. This time, this time, it can be said that someone mobilized all the "experts" around me to help, and Feng Junzi just refused to let Sister Ziying take action. This is the problem.

Sister Ziying did not have the hesitation I imagined, but moved, changed into a comfortable position and leaned in my arms, and asked calmly: "Shiye, do you know the three major families in Wucheng?"

I shook my head: "I have only heard of the two major families in China, namely, Kong, Nan Zhang and Wucheng, and I don't know if there is one surnamed Liu?"

"Yes, there is a family surnamed Liu, a family surnamed Mei, and another family surnamed Zhang. And this family surnamed Zhang is the branch of the north Kong and south Zhang you mentioned..."

There is one of the three major families in Wucheng, which I have known for a long time, namely the ancestors of Teacher Liu and Liu Yiyi. The famous Wucheng Liu family in history was a family of gentry for generations, and it fell to the founding of New China. The Mei clan is very famous in history, and it is a family of books, poetry, and rituals for generations. Over the past thousand years, it has produced great literati, great poet, famous mathematicians, astronomers, etc. This family is very mysterious and has no news in modern times. The top scholar bridge in the south of our school is said to be built by a top scholar in the Mei clan.

The Zhang family in Wucheng has a more special origin. In the eyes of secular people, it is a merchant family in Wucheng. Unlike the thousand-year traditions of the other two families, Zhang moved to Wucheng five hundred years ago. It is said that he was a son of Zhang Tianshi, a side branch of Longhu Mountain, Jiangxi. The Zhang family in Zhang has been passed down from generation to generation, but the seat can only be passed to one son. It is normal to have a side branch to set up a new branch. The Zhang family in Wucheng was a branch divided five hundred years ago.

The Zhang family has been doing business for generations, and they are famous wealthy people in Wucheng. However, in the eyes of practitioners, the Zhang family's numerology and talismans were also passed down from generation to generation, and they are famous masters of the sect in the cultivation world. Before liberation, Zhang Rongdao (the chairman of Rongdao Group)'s father suddenly dispersed all his family fortune, gave up the family business that had been passed down for five hundred years, and welcomed the new society as a city civilian. Thus, he avoided a disaster and was able to live his life. This ended up much better than the Liu family. It seems that the knowledge of the sect family is indeed extraordinary.

After the reform and opening up, Zhang Rongdao, the son of Zhang's family, went into business again and founded Rongdao Group. After more than ten years of development, its business scope includes trade, hotel, transportation, real estate and other industries. Mr. Zhang Rongdao also became the richest man in Wucheng. This is the origin of Mr. Zhang.

After listening to Sister Ziying's story, I asked curiously again: "Mr. Zhang is the richest man in Wucheng, so why do you still have to tell fortunes at the Phoenix Bridge? Last time I helped him collect 3,000 yuan of divination gold, and he also gave me 1,000 yuan. When I turned around, I saw him running to a tavern on the side of the road to buy wine and cut beef... Is it necessary?"

After hearing my question, Sister Ziying held up her chin with her hands on my chest, raised her face, blinked her beautiful eyes and looked at me: "Oye, you are becoming more and more interesting... I mean, the master who preached your Taoism is really interesting! Do you really don't know... Didn't your master tell you? As a result, you practitioners should make it clear when you get started with the precepts."

Sister Ziying said "you practitioners" rather than "we practitioners", and the implication was that she did not count herself as a practitioner. I heard this, but I was even more curious about her problem. I have also had the introductory precepts. Feng Junzi told me the three precepts of practicing, and finally added a fourth precept that he was not allowed to be offered. I asked Sister Ziying: "I know the three precepts that are followed in the world in practice, and there is no mention of Mr. Zhang's situation here?"

Sister Ziying: "You are not ordinary simple. What is the third precept that practitioners keep together? They cannot use Taoism to make profits in the secular world to satisfy their selfish desires. So many people who do business, why can the Zhang family make money? That's not because they are proficient in numerology and can predict opportunities. It's enough to do business with one step ahead. This is already using Taoism to make profits, so they cannot use it privately, otherwise not only will the cultivation world not agree, but they will also be punished by heaven! Who is not afraid of the heavenly disaster?... Do you know how much money the Rongdao Group has donated in the past few years?"

So that's the case. Mr. Zhang's money earned by profit from Taoism cannot be used privately, which is really difficult for him. Thinking of this, I asked again: "Didn't Mr. Zhang use Taoism to set up a stall to tell fortunes? Why do you still collect money from others?"

Sister Ziying smiled again, this time she was shaking with flowers: "Ouch! You are so cute. When did you see a fortune teller who really used magic to tell fortunes? It was nothing more than eyesight and scheming. If you use math skills, it would require a special opportunity. If you have the opportunity, it would not be considered breaking the precepts... Besides, fortune telling talismans are the art of making a living in the martial arts world passed down from generation to generation by Taoist priests in Longhu Mountain. Mr. Zhang made a living with this identity to not forget his origin. In short, he was the most laborious successor of the Zhang family in Wucheng."

"The hardest? What about his father and ancestors?"

Sister Ziying: "The problem lies in this. The business has become scale and the transaction is on track. As long as the descendants manage it well, there is no need to use any magic methods. For five hundred years, the Zhang family has been rich and rich, and their children have been frugal from birth, and they don't have to make a living in the world. However, in the hands of Zhang Rongdao's father, the family's industries were cut off and everything needed to start over. Mathematical techniques can help Zhang Rongdao make a fortune in business, but he cannot use this money. After the industry inheritance, his descendants did not have this taboo, so Zhang Rongdao can be said to be the person who revitalized the Zhang family's inheritance. Compared with his ancestors five hundred years ago, the only regret is that he has no son!"

After hearing this, I understood that Mr. Zhang from Rongdao Group cannot spend money, but his daughter Zhang Zhi can spend it. This rule is really interesting. I asked Sister Ziying again: "Mr. Zhang's money can be spent, but what if a prodigal son loses his industry?"

Sister Ziying: "You still don't understand the rules of practice thoroughly. For industries like this, descendants can benefit from profits, but they cannot sell their money for their own use, otherwise they will be punished by God. Let's put it this way, the fathers can leave a house, and the descendants can rent the house for rent. It doesn't matter. This is the profit of business, but they can't spend the money on selling the house. Do you understand?"

I have completely understood the metaphor of Sister Ziying. All the practitioners in the world are not simple. Mr. Zhang’s story can be written into a novel. I think if the stories of Feng Junzi or Shang Yunfei are told, they may also be long. Thinking of them, I think of myself. I am a practitioner who has not been in the early stages. Maybe my story will be as colorful as these people in the future, right?

...

When I left the noodle shop, it was already late and it was getting dark. I had already walked to the west gate of the school and suddenly thought about it. I felt something was wrong for no reason, so I looked back.

The street light outside the noodle shop far away was still on, the door was closed, nothing happened. I was about to turn around, but suddenly I saw a figure crawling out from somewhere, flashing into the empty door of the noodle shop. The movements of opening and closing the door were extremely flexible. If I blinked at this time, I wouldn't have noticed someone going in. I was shocked because I recognized the figure of the man - it was Feng Junzi!

What did Feng Junzi do when he went to Sister Ziying so late? It was strange enough that he had settled on Sister Ziying during the day and refused to let her go to Qiyunguan. Even if he explained that he didn't want her to cause trouble, it would be very reluctant. Now he sneaked into the noodle shop like a thief at night. What else did he want to do to Sister Ziying? I hesitated for a moment, wondering if he would go over and take a look. Feng Junzi made such a mysterious thing, obviously he didn't want others to discover it. Is it okay if I go back?

After thinking about it, I still used a compromise method, leaned against a corner of the wall, and used my ear power to concentrate and listen to the movements in the noodle restaurant. It is beneficial to understand the Taoist Dharma - you don’t have to get close to eavesdropping! My thoughts are everywhere, and my hearing is also coming. I only heard Feng Junzi say to Sister Ziying: "...What do you say so much to him? There are many things that he needs to slowly understand by himself. His master didn’t tell him why you have so many things? After he said it, he understood, and he wouldn’t think about it. What Shi Ye lacks the most is his own intention..."

"Yes, Ishino is just too simple. I'm afraid he will suffer a loss. He is a practitioner, but he doesn't understand the particulars. What should I do if I accidentally make a mistake? The elders in his sect will blame him at that time..."

Feng Junzi chuckled softly: "It turns out that you are worried about this. You are afraid that Shi Ye will not understand the rules. If you accidentally violate some taboos, you will provoke the elders in his sect. Then you are with him, this is a taboo for practitioners. I am afraid that this is what you are really worried about?"

Sister Ziying's voice was a little panicked: "I, what's wrong with me? I didn't harm him!"

Feng Junzi: "When you were talking just now, you were not good at sitting, but you just wanted to sit in his arms! Is that place very comfortable? Why can't you get up after you sit down?... Boss, I didn't know your origin before, but after Shino was injured in the noodle shop, I knew your origin..."

When Sister Ziying suddenly stood up, took two steps back and said, "You-I, I have no malice! Since you know, what do you want?"

Feng Junzi shook his head: "When you sat in his arms just now, he didn't push you away, which means he could still accept you! Since he was so willing, what can I do? Now I just want to know, what do you want to do to him? What happened to you and Ishino? Why did you come to him?"

I felt suspicious in my heart! First of all, I thought that Feng Junzi might have misunderstood my relationship with Sister Ziying. She did throw herself into my arms and talk, but I didn't push her away, but the situation was quite special. I already felt that Sister Ziying had a good impression of me and was willing to do anything for me. Will I really accept her in my mind? As soon as this thought arose, she was soon dispersed by another thought. Feng Junzi said that he already knew the origin of Sister Ziying! What is Sister Ziying's origin?

Sister Ziying replied in a low voice: "I remember when I entered the world, I made a wish. If I could meet someone who sacrificed my life for me in the world, I would use myself to return him to this life. This is my practice. Although your cultivation is better than mine, you may not be able to understand it."

Feng Junzi: "Of course I don't understand. How old am I? How do you use yourself to repay him in this life? If Shino was an ordinary person, it would be fine. If you only have a hundred years of life, you will accompany him, and you will be overwhelmed after you have been with him. But he is a person who practices alchemy. Once you have this thought, it may not be as simple as a lifetime. If his alchemy is successful and he will eventually be immortal, I think what you do!"

Sister Ziying: "If this is true, I am willing. You are young and will not understand! He gave me the dream that I had when I entered the world. Among the six realms, only people have feelings. Since I have entered the human cluster..."

Feng Junzi: "Stop! Don't talk to me about the six realms, I don't understand! Only people have feelings? That may not be necessary! Isn't that dog also affectionate and righteous to Shi Ye? I heard that you are just trying to repay him with your body, either in this life or in this life. But there is another question you have ever thought about? Shi Ye is a person who practices alchemy, and you can't be with him! This will ruin his practice! Don't think that those masters in the world have nothing to do after eating and want to eliminate demons. You are together, it is indeed not good for him."

Sister Ziying: "I really don't have the intention to harm him..."

Feng Junzi: "You have not been easy for hundreds of years to practice, but aliens are aliens, and there is no way to do it. Either Shi Ye give up his practice, or you don't see him in the future! I won't ask Shi Ye this, today I want you to choose yourself!... Don't! Boss, don't cry... You are such an adult crying in front of me, a child... Forget it, I'm afraid of you, I was joking with you just now...... Say something, don't cry first, things can be discussed, and there is no way."

Feng Junzi's tone was very serious at first, but he became panicked as he spoke. It turned out that Sister Ziying was crying out loud-this time today. The two words Feng Junzi said just now surprised me, one was "hundreds of years of practice" and the other was "anomal is an alien."

Actually, I have had a long time to ask about the origin of Sister Ziying. When I heard this conversation today, I suddenly thought that Sister Ziying is not an ordinary person? Or isn’t she a monster? Is she a vixen or something else? A year ago, someone told me that there are monsters in the world and I definitely wouldn’t believe it! But now I believe that since I met Liu Yiyi, since there are ghosts in the world, why can’t there be monsters? I heard Feng Junzi say that animals and plants can practice, and it’s not uncommon to produce a fairy. Why is it Ziying, and why did I encounter it?

Without mentioning my random thoughts, Feng Junzi could still discuss it. It was not that there was no way, Sister Ziying stopped crying immediately. With a plop, it was the sound of knees tinging on the ground. Sister Ziying actually knelt in front of Feng Junzi: "Mr. Feng, you are Shi Ye's friend and a master in the world. I am willing to ask Mr. to give advice..."

Sister Ziying's tone changed. She no longer called Feng Junzi the name directly, but respectfully called him "Mr. Feng". The scene must be quite funny. A young woman kneeled in front of a child and called Mr. But I didn't feel funny at all, and I was listening with all my attention. Feng Junzi really has a way to let Sister Ziying be with me, and I can continue to practice? My psychological feeling is that even if I don't want Sister Ziying to accompany me or be with her, it is always good to have such a possibility. I vaguely feel that if Sister Ziying is really missing in life, I am no longer used to it.
