Chapter 116 The Request of Taishang Laojun
Taishang Laojun walked in from the door of his side hall with a smile, "What wind brought Erlang Zhenjun here?"
Erlang Shen was sitting on a chair, drinking the tea served by the fairy boy. After hearing what Taishang Laojun said, he stood up and bowed to Taishang Laojun, "Thank you, Laojun! I have something to ask of you!"
Taishang Laojun sat directly next to Erlang Shen, his eyes full of surprise, "It's rare to hear Erlang Zhenjun say that he has something to ask for!"
Erlang Shen was slightly embarrassed, but thinking about what he had promised the dean, he thought about it and said, "It's like this, I promised to be a teacher at West Lake College. Laojun knows this, right?"
Taishang Laojun nodded, "Yes, I was there at the time. Hey, you won't regret it, will you?"
Taishang Laojun was a little embarrassed. "Either you discuss this with the dean, why are you looking for me? You don't want me to be a peacemaker for you, do you? No, no, how can I, the great Laojun, be a peacemaker between you and someone who is not a god! Speaking of which, Erlang Zhenjun, your promise is too rash!"
"Although you only agreed to teach for one month each year, one year in the human world is not that long in heaven. This is too much of a loss!"
"However, since you have regrets, it is not a good idea to teach those students again. I will not be a peacemaker. But I can give you an idea. What about you? This is it..."
Before Taishang Laojun could finish his words, he was interrupted by Erlang Shen, "Laojun, that's not it!"
The more Erlang Shen listened to what Taishang Laojun said, the more embarrassed he felt. It sounded as if Taishang Laojun was a villain who did not keep his promise.
And it feels good to teach students!
Erlang Shen obviously thought of Long Pinxuan nodding and praising him from time to time while he was sitting in the back listening to his lecture. Maybe he really has the talent of a teacher! The dean had such high expectations for him in his first lecture.
After being interrupted by Erlang Shen, Taishang Laojun was also a little stunned, "What is that?"
He looked at Erlang Shen, who looked a little proud and absent-minded, and became more and more confused. Why did it seem that Erlang Shen had no objection to teaching? He even seemed to be enjoying it.
"Laojun, I came here this time because I really want your help. I really can't do this!" Erlang Shen came to his senses and said sincerely, "If you can promise me, I will give you my 100,000-year-old snow ganoderma."
When Taishang Laojun heard about the 100,000-year-old Snow Ganoderma, his eyes almost popped out, and he hurriedly called out Erlang Shen's real name.
"Yang Jian, you are serious, right? What is worth giving out the 100,000-year-old Snow Ganoderma? You have to know that you got it with untold hardships. Last time I just wanted to take a look at it, but you refused. Now you are willing to give it to me directly?"
Erlang Shen was even more embarrassed. Could he say that the last time he didn't show it to Taishang Laojun, it was because Taishang Laojun got bored and started some love fan business, which caused all the fairies in the heaven to throw fans into his palace one by one?
In fact, can he say that he also values the 100,000-year-old Snow Ganoderma very much?
No, but...
Erlang Shen nodded, "As long as you can promise me, I will bring you the Snow Ganoderma immediately!"
How could Taishang Laojun not agree? He was so happy that he almost jumped up.
Erlang Shen is the god of war. There is no great war in the fairy world right now, so it won't matter. His guess about Erlang Shen was wrong from the beginning, that is, it has nothing to do with that academy. In this case, agreeing to Erlang Shen is nothing more than helping him to make a few more furnaces of elixir. A few furnaces of elixir in exchange for a 100,000-year-old snow ganoderma lucidum, why not do it!
Taishang Laojun nodded immediately, "Okay, okay, give it to me first, I will agree immediately!"
When Erlang Shen heard what Taishang Laojun said, he quickly took out a snow-white and transparent snow ganoderma from the mustard seed space and threw it to Taishang Laojun, "Here, take it!"
Taishang Laojun immediately took the snow ganoderma in a hurry and put it in the jade box, muttering to himself all the time.
"Really? How can it be preserved like this?"
"Don't put it away properly! It looks like the roots are going to be damaged!"
Erlang Shen said calmly, "The only part of the snow ganoderma that can be used as medicine is the one above!"
Taishang Laojun rolled his eyes at Erlang Shen and said, "Just say you don't understand. This 100,000-year-old snow ganoderma is full of treasures! Hey! You still don't understand even if I tell you. It can still play the greatest role here with me."
After Taishang Laojun carefully put the snow ganoderma away, he turned to look at Erlang Shen, "Come on, what do you want me to do for you? It has to be something I can do!"
Erlang Shen smiled, "Of course it is within my ability. Laojun is so good at refining elixirs, why don't you give me some pointers?"
Taishang Laojun was a little hesitant, "You took out the 100,000-year-old snow ganoderma just to let me teach the younger generation? That's impossible, right?"
Erlang Shen sighed slightly, "West Lake College is currently short of teachers. How about Laojun come to substitute for the class for a while? Like me, he only needs to teach for one month a year. He can teach whatever he wants. Who knows, he might meet one or two good seedlings."
Taishang Laojun suddenly realized, "You are so good, Yang Jian, you framed me to teach at West Lake Academy!"
Taishang Laojun was about to say no, but then he thought of something and hesitated for a moment, "However, if West Lake Academy can meet my requirements, I can consider it."
After all, what Erlang Shen took out was a 100,000-year-old Snow Ganoderma Lucidum, and he also put it away. It would be bad not to do what he promised to do for others.
"However, Yang Jian, you can actually help West Lake College to frame me. This dean is really capable!"
Taishang Laojun looked at Erlang Shen, trying to see through him. With Erlang Shen's arrogant character, he could be ordered around by the dean and even take out the Snow Ganoderma that he had treasured for many years!
This made Taishang Laojun even more interested.
But for Yang Jian, this is actually normal.
Teaching only required a little effort on his part, but the hidden danger of his third eye was a matter of life and death.
It can be said that Yang Jian’s life was saved by Long Pinxuan.
Although they had only agreed to give lessons, Yang Jian was a man who felt that he owed Long Pinxuan a great favor. So it made sense for him to take out his treasured Snow Ganoderma Lucidum in exchange for Taishang Laojun to come out and give lessons.
But there are many reasons why Laozi was chosen.
Among all the gods, the one who is most easily moved is none other than Taishang Laojun.
Because he loves medicinal herbs, and Erlang Shen just happened to have the herbs he wanted, so it was a perfect match!
However, what Erlang Shen did not expect was that Taishang Laojun, who had taken the Snow Ganoderma, had other requests.
