Chapter 41: Warrior
041 Warrior
"Young Taoist priest seems to be worried?"
The terrifying scene quickly disappeared. Following Li Yuanwai's question, Xiang Jiannan returned to reality again. He looked around at everyone's faces and saw nothing unusual.
It is a little better looking than the previous skeleton, but the master doesn’t deserve such a big eye socket.
What on earth happened just now? Why did such a strange scene suddenly appear?
"No, I just haven't had enough rest these days."
Xiang Jiannan spoke, habitually looking at Gao Yuan when in doubt.
There are too many doubts in his heart, and he has become numb now.
I really haven't slept well these past few days. As soon as I close my eyes, I always feel like there's someone next to me. That night with Li Jin has left me with a psychological trauma. I toss and turn, and from time to time I feel goose bumps all over my body.
"I think there are too many worldly affairs, which disturb the Taoist priest and make him unable to be at peace."
Li Yuanwai said with a smile, "Unlike us, we just crawl into bed when it gets dark."
There seems to be something wrong with what you said.
Seeing that Mr. Li began to act in a way that reflected his feelings, Xiang Jiannan immediately had a bad feeling. He squinted his eyes and quickly said the next sentence: "In fact, Mr. Li is also very distressed sometimes. He has too many family members. Once night falls, he always loses sight of one thing while taking care of another."
It seems that the punishment that day was not too light.
Not sure why the topic had been brought here, Xiang Jiannan was convinced.
He had nothing to say next as Mr. Li's words touched upon an area he was not very proficient in.
Is it too much to tell the Taoist priest this? The adult world is indeed inseparable from the opposite sex. Mr. Li was just having an awkward conversation. The dark energy that day might have damaged his brain nerves, causing him to be unable to distinguish between occasions when speaking and he couldn't control himself while chatting.
Too many family members? Why don't you just say there are too many women? Anyway, we are all smart people, and no matter how subtle you are, it won't affect some people's automatic imagination.
"These are some of the senior servants I just hired."
Perhaps he realized that what he had just said was inappropriate. When he saw that his words did not have much effect, Mr. Li couldn't help feeling a little embarrassed.
He thought he was very familiar with the two Taoist priests in Ping'an Temple, so he spoke without thinking. When he saw that Xiang Gao and the other two were just looking at him calmly with no expression, he immediately started to change the subject.
He used his usual tricks. These two Taoist priests were both practitioners. The words that ordinary people occasionally used to tease them were not applicable in front of them. He was too careless.
"Wu Fu!"
Staring at the people standing beside Mr. Li and revealing their identities, Gao Yuan could not help but teach them: "This woman must be pampered. The trouble that Mr. Li just mentioned is something I, the Taoist priest, have also experienced."
"I didn't expect that the old Taoist priest was also a man of temperament!"
"It's just a thing of the past. I was old then, and still handsome."
"Li saw it a long time ago!"
"master."
Seeing that the master and Mr. Li were entering the playing mode, Xiang Jiannan couldn't help but interrupt them.
These two people are really like-minded. The more they talk, the more unbearable it is to hear. With such big eyes, they dare to call themselves handsome. Do they really think that I, their disciple, am a transparent person? In terms of appearance, Xiang Jiannan thinks that he is still very good-looking. Although the appearance of this body is not even one percent of the previous one, it is still ranked among the best in Ping'an Town. Putting aside their identities, with such a respectable appearance, do you really have no sense of shame? Where does your confidence come from?
"Wu Fu is the most important weapon of the country!"
He changed his words immediately when Xiang Jiannan called him "Master", and Gao Yuan's face immediately became serious when he spoke again.
He saw that the people around Mr. Li were all warriors. In the Great Zhou Dynasty, they were indeed worthy of this title, and there was no doubt about that.
Warrior.
Looking at the men with resolute expressions around Mr. Li, Xiang Jiannan could only say that it was great to be rich.
A warrior is actually a person who practices martial arts, but he is not exactly the same as some people who practice martial arts.
Not everyone who practices martial arts can be called a warrior. This is just like one cannot control Qi without reaching the second level of Dao Fruit.
People who practice martial arts must first overcome a hurdle if they want to become warriors. Otherwise, in the Great Zhou Dynasty, they will be called smelly martial artists by other practitioners. Because they always smell of sweat when they practice, they have this unwelcome name. Only by entering the second rank of Wuzong can they officially win respect and be called a warrior.
The second rank of Wuzong is a symbol of the martial artist's accomplishments. With the ingenious fusion of skills and Qi, no matter they are at the second rank or above, they are often more powerful than other practitioners of the same level. Most of the warriors in the Great Zhou Dynasty are concentrated in the military camps, but these warriors scattered across the country should not be underestimated.
You must know that at any time, warriors are the main fighting force of a country. Although their status varies, they cannot be underestimated when they are united. The cost of hiring these senior servants hired by Mr. Li must be no small amount.

I think he was scared after what happened a few days ago, so he asked a few warriors to give him courage.
Even gods and ghosts are unwilling to provoke warriors of high realms who are too murderous. Since the establishment of the Great Zhou Dynasty, there have been people who have reached this realm. They have survived by stepping on thousands of corpses. Each level is fed with human flesh and blood.
There is no one who can be called a warrior in Ping'an Town. The folk customs here do not advocate martial arts. In their eyes, studying and taking exams are more reliable.
The world is peaceful nowadays, and the status of warriors has always been awkward. Therefore, under the premise that they feel there is no hope of promotion in the army, many people who practice martial arts have set their sights on wealthy people with solid family backgrounds like Mr. Li, and become a high-level servant or bodyguard in exchange for a considerable reward.
There is a necessary condition, that is, one's own cultivation must be at least at the second level. Otherwise, even if one wants to be a high-level servant, there is no way to do so in the Zhou Dynasty.
In the Great Zhou Dynasty, there were institutions that specialized in introducing high-level servants to the wealthy. Compared with the security companies in the previous life, the two were actually of the same nature. Under their leadership, the second-grade realm had become a rigid requirement for high-level servants, which could be high but absolutely not lower.
I have all these things in my memory, and I was a little surprised when I first received them.
In certain business activities, the Great Zhou Dynasty is actually not inferior to the original world. It has everything, and is even more professional than the previous world.
"The old Taoist priest has good eyesight."
With Gao Yu'an's approval, Mr. Li felt more relieved. It cost him a lot of money to hire these servants, and he wanted to find someone who knows the business to take a look at them this time. Although the person who introduced them was trustworthy, he still had to find a professional to confirm it.
It's not that I don't trust them, I just want to have some peace of mind in case something like what happened a few days ago happens again, I can still count on these servants to come in handy.
Even if it can't drive away evil spirits, it can at least serve as a deterrent when they target you.
The people who sent them here said that the evil spirits of these servants were very strong, and ordinary ghosts and evil spirits did not dare to approach within ten meters of them.
"The old Taoist priest is polite."
Only at this moment did a warrior speak to Gao Yuan, with a tone that was neither humble nor arrogant, while the others did not say a word at all.
On the way here, I heard Mr. Li praising the two Taoists in Ping'an Temple for their great supernatural powers. But after seeing it with my own eyes, I felt a little disappointed. This Taoist priest looked crazy, and although I couldn't figure out his level of cultivation, it did not affect my contempt for them.
Because as warriors, they have minimum standards of behavior.
