Chapter 69: Beautiful Big Sister Ji Meng’s Spiritual Pearl Points…
Lingzhuzi nodded to show that he understood.
Even if Fu Li didn't say it, he could actually guess her next move. But when she said it, he felt sweet inside.
Zhao Gongming, who was watching from the side, saw that he had turned into a black carp again, and curled his lips silently. While he was proud of his disciple's charm, he was laughing at Taiyi Zhenren in his heart: Hahahaha, your disciple is really useless!
He has already started to think that the next time he sees Taiyi Zhenren, he will definitely "appease" the empty-nest old immortal.
Thinking of Taiyi Zhenren puffing his beard and glaring at him, clearly disliking him but unable to get rid of him, Zhao Gongming almost couldn't help laughing out loud.
To avoid losing his composure in front of his disciple, Zhao Gongming quickly collected his thoughts and changed the subject: "I do have a recommendation for someone to work at the reception desk. What do you think of your Aunt Sanxiao?"
Sanxiao and Zhao Gongming are both disciples of Tongtian Sect Master. If we follow the principle of master-disciple relationship, Fu Li should call him "Uncle Master".
But they are siblings with Zhao Gongming, and both Zhao Gongming and Fu Li feel that calling her "Auntie" is closer to them.
Therefore, not long after the apprenticeship ceremony, Fu Li changed his tone after hearing his teacher's advice.
Fu Lixi said, "If the three aunts are willing to come and take charge, that would be great. But, won't it interfere with their cultivation?"
Throughout the prehistoric world, those with lower cultivation levels pursued immortality. However, once they achieved immortality, they would set even loftier goals for themselves.
——Comprehend the Way of Heaven.
The Sanxiao sisters, like Duobao and Zhao Gongming, are all direct disciples of Tongtian Sect Master. They have practiced for countless years. What they pursue now is naturally a deeper understanding of the way of heaven, so that they can realize a way that belongs to them alone.
Even though the Heavenly Dao Saints have a fixed destiny and they can no longer become saints, they still want to pursue higher status and combat power among the Quasi-Saints.
For ordinary people, depriving someone of their money is like killing their parents.
For Qigong practitioners, delaying their practice is more hateful than cutting off the money of ordinary people.
Zhao Gongming knew her concerns and explained, "Don't worry, they took the initiative to come to Mount Emei to help."
As for the reason, it was naturally because he learned from Master Duobao that Mount Emei wanted to find a way out for the vast number of disciples of the Jiejiao sect.
It would have been fine if there was no way before, but now that there is a chance to look after fellow disciples and repay the teacher's kindness, Sanxiao will certainly not miss it.
"That's good, that's good." Fu Li said happily, "With the three aunts here, I don't have to worry about anything. After we meet the Demon Saint Ji Meng, I'll take him directly to the Ge Tribe."
The Ge tribe was the first Shu tribe she came into contact with, and also the tribe that was most accepting of her.
Flood control requires not only highly skilled personnel but also the right time, location, and people. If the locals don't trust her, they won't cooperate.
Even if she meant well, it was all in vain.
After the three of them finished their discussion, they went back to rest.
The next morning, Lingzhuzi bid farewell to Zhao Gongming and Fuli, then flew to Buzhou Mountain on his wind-fire wheel.
Fu Li had nothing to do for the time being, so he helped Zhao Gongming allocate the supply of goods and commanded the four boys Zhao Bao, Na Zhen, Zhao Cai and Li Shi around.
The master and apprentice worked until noon. Zhao Gongming invited her to sit down and have a cup of tea to rest. He said with emotion: "Our family's business is getting bigger and bigger, and the four of them are gradually unable to cope with it."
Fu Li said, "Then we'll conduct an assessment and recruit people. There are so many people at the foot of the mountain, there must be some smart ones suitable for business. Otherwise, wait for the fellow disciples to arrive and ask them if they are willing to stay and help long-term."
Zhao Gongming thought for a moment and said, "Let's start by looking for it among our fellow disciples. After all, I've already promised Senior Brother Duobao that this business will mainly benefit our fellow disciples."
After the scope of candidates was determined, Zhao Gongming didn't need Fu Li to remind him of the rest. He quickly drafted a contract to stipulate the treatment of his fellow disciples after they joined the company.
Fu Li took it and took a look. She saw that it said that if one puts in extra effort after completing one's job, one-third of the extra income will be given to the person involved.
Good boss, really good boss!
If all the bosses in the world were like her teacher, would there be any workers complaining about overtime work?
A day later, Kong Xuan came back, accompanied by a beautiful older sister wearing a seamless golden and red robe.
Fu Li looked at the other person with burning eyes. She was tall and strong. Her skin was not fair, but slightly wheat-colored, but not obvious.
The eyebrows were neither too thick nor too thin, their color neither too dark nor too light. The two pools of water beneath them were as warm as the summer sun.
She has a straight nose, rosy lips, a row of pearly teeth when she smiles, and even a shallow dimple on her left cheek.
She is heroic and graceful. All the beautiful words in the world that describe women are suitable for her.
Kong Xuan pointed at her and introduced her, "Senior Sister, this is Ji Meng, the Demon Court Rain Master."
Fu Li suddenly woke up from his dream and hurriedly bowed, "So it's the Rain Master in person. I, your humble disciple, am honored to meet the Great Sage Ji Meng."
Ji Meng smiled brightly, his voice as clear as jade, melodious and melodious as he spoke: "Ji Meng greets the Fairy Fuli. The Demon Court has long been destroyed, and there is no Rain Master here, only a leisurely Demon Saint Ji Meng."
She made her attitude clear right from the start and cut ties with her past.
Fu Li had also encountered Bai Ze, another demon sage, before. His stubbornness and arrogance had left her feeling irritated and wary. To the point that whenever she mentioned another demon sage, she would first worry whether they would be able to put aside their pride and engage in an equal conversation with her, a Qi cultivator who was born many years later than her.
Ji Meng's open and equal attitude had already greatly improved Fu Li's favorability. Furthermore, with Bai Ze's previous experience as a lesson, what was the bonus of a rebound?
Her smile grew even more sincere. "The Great Sage is a straightforward man. If I were to continue beating around the bush and trying to be coy, wouldn't that make you look down on me? Please take a seat, and let's get straight to the point."
She asked Ji Meng to sit at the head of the table, while she and Kong Xuan sat at the bottom. Fu Yue personally brought tea and served it, then left to guard the door, preventing anyone from entering to disturb her.
Except for Kong Xuan, the middleman, neither party had any intention of drinking tea. They just touched their lips lightly and then put down their tea bowls one after another.
Fu Li said, "I need the Great Sage's help to control the floods in Shu, and the Great Sage needs the merits to eliminate the karma brought about by the Demon Court. We both get what we need. Is this okay with the Great Sage?"
Ji Meng nodded and said, "That's quite pertinent."
Controlling floods is a great merit. Ji Meng was once the rain master, so how could he not know it?
After the fall of the Demon Court, she had the least amount of disasters and consequences among the ten demon saints, which was closely related to her many times in charge of controlling floods in the ancient times.
Since she knew that flood control could bring merit, and merit could cleanse cause and effect, why didn't she do it herself?
Even though she bore the least karma, the reference point was the Ten Great Demon Saints. Heaven distributed karma according to the benefits they had received from the Demon Court. Her merits from flood control offset some of the damage, but the remaining amount was still considerable.
She has such a huge cause and effect on her back, which cannot be seen on a normal day, but once she wants to do something, she will definitely not succeed.
A major project like flood control requires disturbing the mountains and rivers. The consequences of failure are not just failure, but will also cause great damage and increase more causes and consequences.
Therefore, even though Ji Meng had skills and experience, he could only rely on others to complete the great task of flood control.
When Dayu was controlling the floods, she followed him under the pseudonym Boyi and shared some of his merits, which offset a small part of the karma that had happened to her.
But since Dayu, there has been no major flood control project in the world. In order to avoid adding to the cause and effect, she has been living in seclusion in the Zhangyuan.
Kong Xuan was able to befriend her because he stumbled into Zhangyuan while fleeing from his enemies. Ji Meng, adhering to the principle that "even a small fly is still meat", saved his life.
Therefore, this time Kong Xuan asked her to come out of the mountains to control the flood, which could be regarded as returning a favor.
Both sides were willing to do the same, and they reached an agreement in just a few words. The speed was so fast that Kong Xuan, who was watching, was stunned.
Fu Li turned around and asked him, "Junior Brother Kong Xuan, will you stay in Mount Emei to help my teacher, or will you come with us to control the flood?"
Kong Xuan glanced at Ji Meng and said, "I'd better stay in Emei and listen to my uncle's orders. With Sister Ji Meng here, there's no need for anyone else to get involved."
Fu Li understood and knew that he didn't want to share Ji Meng's merits.
Since the other party had made up his mind, she did not force him. Instead, she said, "In that case, you should come with me to pay respect to the master. I will leave you with the master, and the Great Sage and I will leave first."
Ji Meng said, "Fairy, please don't call me the Great Sage all the time. Just call me by my name."
At this point, she blinked and joked, "Back then, when I helped the Xiahou clan control the floods, I had to hide my identity so as not to disturb the Human Emperor. I've finally met a fellow Taoist like you, Fairy, so you should spread my name for me, right?"
Kong Xuan was surprised and asked, "Ah, is the Taoist master here too?"
Fu Li said, "The leader has concealed his name. He will stay here for a few years and help me train some guards. You must not let anyone know."
Then he turned to Ji Meng and said, "If that's the case, why does Sister Ji Meng call me 'Fairy Lady'?"
Ji Meng readily agreed: "Help Sister Li."
Fu Li smiled slightly: "Sister Ji Meng."
The two smiled at each other.
Ji Meng asked, "Are you going to see the Patriarch Tongtian? The Patriarch and I are old acquaintances. It's been many years since we last met, and I'd like to see an old friend. Is that convenient?"
Upon hearing this, Kong Xuan immediately looked at Fu Li with a pleading look on his face.
Fu Li smiled and said, "Of course. My master loves a lively atmosphere, and reuniting with old friends is a joy. Who knows, he might even treat you to a drink."
Ji Meng said, "Let's not drink any more. After seeing our old friend, let's set out to control the flood. Times have changed, and it's inevitable that there will be great changes. I'm not very familiar with the current terrain, so it would be safer to explore it first."
Fu Li certainly wouldn't discourage her enthusiasm. She nodded immediately and reminded the two, "By the way, Master's current pseudonym is Yu Wei Zhenren. Don't call him by the wrong name."
Ji Meng laughed and said, "What alias? This is his real name. Among the Three Pure Ones, the eldest is Li Er, the second is Fu Li, and the third is Yu Wei."
Fu Li was stunned at first, then suddenly realized: "So that's how it is."
This matter was not originally a secret, but with the Three Pure Ones' attainment of sainthood, their status in the prehistoric world suddenly rose. People spontaneously avoided mentioning the names of the venerable ones, and naturally no one mentioned their real names anymore.
That is, even powerful people of his time like Ji Meng still remembered these things.
