Chapter 122: Finding the True Spirit (2 Chapters Combined into One)



"So it's Xuan Nu. Tell me, Lao Jun, you accepted a disciple, but you didn't bring him to me right away. You are really becoming more and more dishonest, old man."

Old Xu patted Qiu Yuan's shoulder with a kind look on his face.

It looked as if Qiu Yuan was really the younger generation of his old friend whom he hadn't seen for a long time.

Expressions, words, emotions, movements, all aspects of acting skills are maxed out.

The Oscars owe Mr. Xu an Oscar for Best Actor in Sunset Glow.

Qiu Yuan helplessly watched the two old-looking guys competing with each other in acting.

If you don't trust someone very much.

She probably felt that she was the one who was kept in the dark.

There is absolutely no acting involved in the acting of these two guys.

"Oh, by the way, my dear old Taoist friend Youchao, I'm here to discuss something important with you. Can you please have a moment with me?"

Deng Ru could see that Qiu Yuan was obviously not used to this performance.

Well, after all, not everyone can switch freely between different roles like him.

Deng Ru thinks.

If I were that kind of god of rules.

Then his rule must be to play everything in the world, and then make up stories to fool the world for fun.

Commonly known as the God of Fun.

"Old Taoist friend, you actually have something important to discuss with me? I also have a house in this world. Although it is simple, it is still good. Come with me."

Old Xu knew that the god in front of him who called himself Taishang Laojun wanted to send his apprentice away to talk to him, Youchao, alone, which must be some private matter.

This kind of private matter may be very important.

It concerns Youchao's life.

"Xuan Nu, I have some private matters to discuss with You Chaoshi. Please feel free to walk around here."

Deng Ru pretended to be a senior and spoke to Qiu Yuan.

"Yes, Master."

Qiu Yuan suppressed the complaints in his heart and whispered the word "Master" through gritted teeth.

Her shame is about to explode.

Fortunately, I don’t have to keep acting.

Deng Ru finally felt guilty and prepared to perform a solo show with Mr. Xu.

She was liberated.

.........

"Hahaha, old Taoist friend, look at this place. There are mountains and water, and the scenery is pleasant. Although it is not as magnificent as the Immortal Palace, it is still quite good after all. It is suitable for old men like you and me to live in seclusion."

Old Xu walked in a square step, as if inviting Deng Ru.

How can we describe the scene of the meeting between these two old men?

It’s just like the Jade Emperor in Journey to the West inviting Patriarch Bodhi to the Tushita Palace.

He looks very immortal.

Walking into the bamboo house, Deng Ru and Xu Lao sat down opposite each other.

"I wonder what I want to tell you, old Taoist friend?"

Mr. Xu asked curiously.

"It's not a big deal, old Taoist friend. I remember you seem to still have a mortal body. Are you doing some kind of architectural research?"

Deng Ru's old words seemed to have magical power, guiding Mr. Xu's thoughts in a strange direction.

This direction is probably.

The Youchao here is your real body, and that otaku who works in architecture and remains single all his life is actually just your mortal body.

“Hmm… indeed???”

When Mr. Xu heard the question, he instinctively wanted to say that his body on Blue Star was indeed studying architecture.

But Mr. Xu suddenly reacted.

Isn’t this the world created by the great god Pangu?

Why does this old man named Taishang Laojun know that he is an architect?

Although according to them, Youchao was also an architect, there is no conflict.

However, the targeting implication of the word "mortal body" is too obvious.

Mortal body, what is a mortal body? Isn’t it the body of a mortal?

Why not use words like incarnation?

An incarnation is a body forged using magic and supernatural powers.

But the mortal body is not, the mortal body should be the body of a mortal.

The vocabulary this points to is already obvious.

"Old Taoist friend, why are you so excited?"

Deng Ru asked even though he knew the answer.

"Old Taoist friend, when did I become a mortal?"

Mr. Xu asked in disbelief.

He had a faint suspicion in his heart.

Youchaoshi.

What do these three words represent?

Through what he has seen and heard in this world these days and his own research on ancient culture.

Youchao represents the person who is best at building houses.

In other words, the first person to attempt to build a house and give it to the public.

This is Youchao.

Mr. Xu recalled his life.

It started when I was just born and drew a book on ancient architecture.

He seemed to have a natural understanding of books on ancient architecture since he was a child.

You can understand it almost as soon as you see it, but you lose it as soon as you learn it. Oh, that’s not right, you can learn it as soon as you learn it.

Then, with almost no resistance, he embarked on the path of studying ancient architecture due to his fanatical interest.

From mortise and tenon joints, to arch brackets, to the firing of glazed tiles, these are complex processes.

He did it almost all by himself.

Sometimes he would be curious and wonder why he could understand and learn these books as soon as he read them?

Could it be that he was really a bricklayer in his previous life?

But he also knew that things like past lives were too illusory.

After a person dies, he turns into a ghost, and after a ghost dies, he turns into a ghost.

No one knows what happens after death.

After becoming a ghost, people only have instincts left.

Not to mention reincarnation.
