Chapter 120 The Path to Immortality Will Definitely Begin (Please Subscribe! Please Vote! 23)

In the study, a person dressed in modern clothes and a person dressed in ancient clothes seemed to be in two different worlds.

"have no idea."

Facing the question from his cheap senior brother, Wen Zhengming replied calmly.

"have no idea?"

Li Mubai was a little confused. Could it be that his junior fellow apprentice was the same as him?

He couldn't help but recall the past when he sleepwalked for no reason. It was a sad time.

I do have characteristics similar to those of a reincarnated person, but I don’t know who I am. Could it be that my junior fellow apprentice is the same?

Unfortunately, Li Mubai was obviously overthinking it.

Wen Zhengming is the reincarnation of whoever he thinks he is.

As long as he wants, anyone can be his past life.

It’s just that he needs to fool both the players and the characters, so he doesn’t say it.

Of course, he himself has no idea about the character setting he has given himself.

"In this era, it's possible to be the reincarnation of anyone."

Wen Zhengming reached out and pulled out his gaming chair, sat on it, and said:

"Because... the road to becoming an immortal will definitely open."

When he said the road to immortality would open, it was like he was saying the traffic light would turn green.

Naturally, it seemed like he had known it a long time ago.

Wen Zhengming opened the computer page and browsed the latest hot searches while saying:

"So there will be many people reincarnated into this era, so many that perhaps even the total of all previous reincarnations combined may not be that many."

"This is a predestined era, because many years ago, a group of people calculated this date. From the moment the link between heaven and earth was opened, this era was already predestined."

Li Mubai was shocked by his junior brother's words. He opened his mouth, as if he wanted to ask a lot of questions, but he only asked one sentence:

"The path to becoming an immortal will definitely open in this era?"

"yes!"

Wen Zhengming's answer was simple and direct, as if he was completely sure of it.

From his tone, one can hear his certainty about this matter.

Li Mubai was shocked. Although he and the old Taoist priest said during their conversation on Mount Zhongnan that the path to becoming an immortal might open in this life, they were not sure.

How can my junior brother be so sure that the path to becoming an immortal will be opened in this life?

Wen Zhengming continued to deceive his cheap senior brother and said, "Times have changed, my senior brother. Since the road to becoming an immortal was cut off in history, the connection between heaven and earth has been opened and cut off, but now a new era will begin."

"Haven't you seen it under the Dragon Locking Well? The creation of the heavens is unstoppable, and the same is true for the path to becoming an immortal."

"You really know it." Li Mubai said.

At this moment, he confirmed his guess that his junior brother had indeed known about the events under the Dragon Locking Well a long time ago.

Li Mubai looked at his junior brother with a complicated expression and said, "How do you know? No one should know what happened under the Dragon Locking Well, not even the Dao Yi people of the Ming Dynasty know."

"I just know it."

Wen Zhengming shrugged his shoulders and did not answer Li Mubai's question. Instead, he turned to look at the forum and said:

"My foolish senior brother, what if I tell you that everything under the Dragon Locking Well was planned long, long ago?"

"Are you telling the truth?"

Li Mubai was filled with doubts, but what was waiting for him was an infuriating answer:

"you guess."

Wen Zhengming shrugged and continued reading the article in front of him.

As a behind-the-scenes person, understanding the reactions of people in front of the curtain is also a very important part of life.

Seeing that his junior fellow apprentice didn't want to bother with him, Li Mubai leaned forward, glanced at the computer screen that Wen Zhengming was looking at, and said, "Is this how these people see us?"

Wen Zhengming said: "In the eyes of this world, you are like people from another world. In the last 800 years of the Dharma on earth, everyone has believed that all myths and rumors are caused by ignorance. But now you have arrived and have broken through their cognition. In the eyes of people nowadays, ascetics are like myths."

"The reason why they accepted it so quickly is because who wouldn't want immortality?"

"What are you looking at these for?" Li Mubai asked.

Wen Zhengming shook his head, as if he was annoyed by his senior brother's questions, and said unhappily: "Senior brother, if you have nothing to do, go up and open the door, and take a nap."

Li Mubai was stunned for a moment, as if he was being disliked.

"I'm just a little curious."

"If you're curious, take a look at this!"

Wen Zhengming threw an Encyclopedia to Li Mubai.

"encyclopedia?"

Wen Zhengming nodded and said, "It will help you better understand this world. Now... turn left when you go out, go up one floor, and it's the first room on your left."

Li Mubai looked at the book in his hand, then looked at Wen Zhengming and said, "When can you go to Mount Zhongnan with me?"

Wen Zhengming said without even looking at him, "November 24th."

"Go out and close the door, thank you!"

Li Mubai felt that he was being rejected again. It was this feeling. In his memory, it was for this reason that Li Mubai did not bring Wen Zhengming to Hengshan to practice.

Always being disliked.

As expected... my junior fellow apprentice is still not cute at all.

After Li Mubai went out and closed the door, Wen Zhengming took a look at the closed door.

"Would you like to go for a tour of Mount Zhongnan?"

“It’s actually pretty good.”

………

After Li Mubai came, Wen Zhengming still maintained a stable life.

Check the status of various characters and players on time every day, and then conceive the gods who will appear next.

In Li Mubai's opinion, his junior fellow apprentice was just like himself, always in a daze.

Could it be that my junior fellow apprentice also has something he can't figure out, or is he the same as me?

Then Li Mubai asked Wen Zhengming indirectly whether he had ever experienced sleepwalking or something like that.

Wen Zhengming was confused by the question: "My cheap senior brother, why are you asking me whether I sleepwalk or not?"

So Wen Zhengming drove away his cheap senior brother again.

It was only after the people were driven away that Wen Zhengming began to react.

This seems to be his problem.

It’s a sin!

………

On November 22nd, Wen Zhengming prepared to go out early.

The ascetics have been very stable these days.

It’s just that my senior brother has a lot of problems.

"Brother, have you learned how to order food?" Wen Zhengming asked before leaving.

Li Mubai nodded stiffly and said, "Almost."

Wen Zhengming looked at his senior brother's dazed look and sighed, "Okay, a cultivator won't starve to death anyway, so it won't be a big problem if he has some."

Listen to this... Is this what a younger brother should say to a older brother?

But Li Mubai has become accustomed to being despised by his junior fellow apprentices. Being despised on a daily basis is not a big deal at all.

"You have a good relationship with your classmates?"

“It’s a pretty fun time!”

Wen Zhengming nodded. There are always unforgettable moments in school. If he was not very familiar with the place, how could he agree to go?

"Why are you asking so many questions? Have you learned how to order?"

Li Mubai opened his mouth, but finally closed it.

My junior fellow apprentice is really hard to get along with.

Regarding the language issue, I mentioned it in it, which some students may not have noticed. First, there were no simplified Chinese characters in the Ming Dynasty, so traditional Chinese characters were recognizable to people in the early Ming Dynasty; second, the language adopted the Ming Dynasty's Mandarin as the official language so it remained largely unchanged, and Taoist pronunciation was universal.
