My name is Chen Xi. For several consecutive days, I dreamed of my parents jumping to their deaths. Their hollow eyes nearly drove me to collapse! After meeting my master, I learned that I had been ...
Uncle Ma smiled kindly: "Yes, it takes decades to master the basics."
"How are you? Are you settling in?"
I scratched my head awkwardly: "Maybe it's because I was suddenly in an unfamiliar place, it took me a long time to fall asleep last night."
Uncle Ma nodded: "Yes, you'll get used to it in a couple of days. If you need anything, just let me know."
"Thank you, Uncle Ma. I don't need anything for the time being. I'm sorry for troubling you."
Uncle Ma waved his hand dismissively after hearing what I said, "No need to be so polite, just make yourself at home."
"How's your reading going?"
When I heard Uncle Ma's question, I couldn't help but get excited: "Is the content of the book real?"
"Also... I read page 21, the Five Deficiencies and Three Shortcomings... If I learn Taoist arts, I will also suffer from the Five Deficiencies and Three Shortcomings, right?"
Uncle Ma seemed to have expected my question: "Do you think the things in the book are real?"
"I... I feel that what's written above is a bit exaggerated."
Uncle Ma shook his head: "No, no, no, I can tell you with absolute certainty that everything written on it is true."
"As for the five deficiencies and three lacks you mentioned, you don't need to worry about that."
"Before you decide to enter the Taoist path, you can use the substitution technique to solve the problem."
My eyes widened, and I suddenly looked up at Uncle Ma: "Can a stunt double be used for this?"
"I once heard the term 'five deficiencies and three lacks' by chance, which seems to imply disability."
Uncle Ma looked up at the sky and sighed with a touch of sadness: "Alas~ To be specific, the Five Deficiencies and Three Lacks are a punishment for peeking into the Heavenly Dao!"
