Chapter 20: The Idealist Scholar



Bai Wuchen and the other three felt that they had discovered a huge secret, and their heads were a little dizzy.

However, they were filled with an unprecedented excitement.

This must be the story of an immortal. Is he talking about the world of immortals?

No wonder they felt the sound of the great way as soon as they heard it. Maybe there really is a way to immortality in it!

They were so focused that they didn't dare to breathe.

Li Nianfan spoke slowly and soon talked about the stone monkey worshipping in the Bodhi Cave to learn skills.

All passers-by who passed by Luoxian City, after hearing Li Nianfan's story, put down their work and joined the ranks of listening.

This world is a world where immortals and mortals coexist. Mortals are extremely curious about the stories of immortals, not to mention that the world Li Nianfan talked about is so extraordinary. Even if they are mortals, they can vaguely feel that the people here are much more powerful than immortals.

At this time, a scholar in a tattered blue shirt slowly walked to the gate of Luoxian City.

His eyes were dull, as if he had lost his life goal or was thinking about some difficult problem, and he kept muttering incomprehensible words.

He walked into Luoxianchen, and even though there were many people gathered at the gate, they did not attract his attention. He was immersed in his own world, as if everything in the outside world had nothing to do with him.

At this moment, a voice reached his ears.

"The master said, there are 360 ​​branches in the 'Tao' sect, and all the branches have positive results. I wonder which one you are learning?" Wukong said, "It's up to you, master. I will listen wholeheartedly." The master said, "How about I teach you the 'Tao' sect?" Wukong said, "What do you mean by the 'Tao' sect?" The master said, "The 'Tao' sect involves asking fairies to help with divination and using yarrow to cast divinations, so as to know how to seek good fortune and avoid disaster." Wukong said, "Can you achieve immortality like this?" The master said, "No! No!" Wukong said, "No, no!"

The scholar's empty eyes gradually regained their luster. He stopped and also squeezed into the crowd, listening carefully.

Next, Bodhi Patriarch told Sun Wukong several ways to choose from, but Sun Wukong shook his head and refused them all when he heard that they were not ways to immortality.

Li Nianfan could clearly feel that the breathing of the listeners around him became rapid, and some people even had red eyes.

Among them, Bai Wuchen and the other four were the worst.

They shouted in their hearts, "These are all supreme ways! This stupid monkey actually refused them! Stupid monkey, stupid monkey! If he learns any skill, it will be comparable to the means of immortals, no, it is more powerful than immortals!"

At the same time, they were extremely curious. Who on earth is this Bodhi Patriarch? He can actually teach so many ways. It's too scary!

Young Master Li can even explain such a thing in detail, so what realm is he in?

Bai Wuchen didn't dare to think about it anymore, as his heart couldn't bear it.

When Bodhi Patriarch didn't want to teach anymore and left in anger, everyone's hearts were lifted up again, as if they had missed this supreme way.

However, when Sun Wukong came to the Patriarch in the middle of the night, everyone's breathing became rapid again.

Li Nianfan fully aroused everyone's appetite, smiled slightly and said: "Okay, let's talk about it here today, and listen to the next time to know what will happen next."

"No, Master Li, please talk about it again."

"Oh, how come it's been more than an hour, I'm afraid my wife is going to get angry!" "

Master Li, will you talk again tomorrow? I will definitely come."

Everyone looked at Li Nianfan expectantly, even Nannan's eyes fluctuated.

Li Nianfan rubbed Nannan's head and said, "Don't worry, I will come again at this time tomorrow."

"Mr. Li, thank you, thank you!" Aunt Zhang also noticed Nannan's change, and she burst into tears of joy, and kept bowing to Li Nianfan to thank her.

"Mrs. Zhang, you don't have to be like this, wait until Nannan is completely well before thanking me." Li Nianfan said.

Bai Wuchen and the other three walked up to Li Nianfan, as reserved as elementary school students meeting their teacher.

They were also extremely curious in their hearts. Did Sun Wukong really learn the way to immortality? What is the real way to immortality?

As immortal cultivators, this is their obsession.

However, they did not dare to urge him at all.

Being able to hear Mr. Li tell such a story is already a great opportunity in itself.

Who would have thought that Master Li said all this just to save a little mortal girl? This is a real boss.

Bai Wuchen looked at Li Nianfan expectantly and asked cautiously, "Master Li, can we come here to listen to stories tomorrow?"

He was a little worried. This was most likely the story of a big boss in the immortal world. Was he, a small cultivator, really qualified to listen to it?

"It's just a story. What's wrong with that?" Li Nianfan said with a smile.

These cultivators have so many rules. They have to ask for permission before listening to stories. They are so friendly. Very friendly.

Bai Wuchen and the other three were overjoyed. With Master Li as a guarantor, they immediately felt relieved.

Bai Wuchen bowed and said, "Mr. Li, I am sorry to bother you today.

I am leaving now." Lin Qingyun also whispered, "Mr. Li, we will say goodbye today. I will come again tomorrow to listen to your teachings."

"Well, bye."

Li Nianfan waved his hand.

He glanced at the time and walked back.

As soon as he reached the city gate, a scholar stopped him.

The scholar was very bookish, and the term "weak scholar" seemed to be tailor-made for him. He saluted Li Nianfan and said, "My name is Meng Junliang, nice to meet

you, sir." "Hello, sir Meng, my name is Li Nianfan." Li Nianfan looked at him in confusion, "I wonder what you are doing, sir?"

Meng Junliang looked at Li Nianfan with a sharp gaze, "I would like to ask you, sir, is there really a way to immortality?"

Li Nianfan looked at the scholar in front of him and raised his eyebrows slightly. He never thought that he would ask such a question.

This scholar was full of bookishness. Unlike the immortal cultivators he had met before, he should be just a mortal.

Although it is understandable that mortals pursue immortality, it is obviously unreliable.

To be honest, I also want to be immortal!

He tried to dispel the scholar's obsession and persuaded him: "There is reincarnation in the way of heaven, and the way to immortality cannot be achieved."

"But I read in a book that immortals can be immortal."

The scholar insisted: "Why can immortals be immortal, but mortals can't? I searched all the books, but I didn't find the way to immortality until I heard your story. You must know the way to immortality. Please teach me!"

This scholar must have read too much and lived in an ideal state.

Li Nianfan shook his head and asked: "Immortals can maintain their body functions by cultivating immortality, but mortals can't. Have you ever understood mortals?"

The scholar was stunned.

He himself is a mortal, but he doesn't understand it at all.

He has always been immersed in the world of books, and what he has read is all the knowledge in the books. Everything is at the theoretical level, and he relies more on his own imagination!

He knows a lot of things, but at the same time, he knows nothing.

In the words of Li Nianfan's previous life, this scholar is somewhat inclined to idealism.

As long as I don't want to die, I can't die.
