At least he can adapt to this new era faster than my disciple, who is more than a thousand years old.
"Yes! Disciple believes in Master!"
Gu Qingcheng continued to pretend to be an innocent child who had been dead for more than a thousand years and knew nothing about the new century.
Seeing such a well-behaved disciple, Chi Powang felt a sense of satisfaction and a strong sense of responsibility.
But soon, the master and disciple were slapped in the face.
They flew over several mountains in less than two hours.
Then they saw human habitation and small villages scattered on the hillside.
The two men avoided the crowd and continued to quicken their pace.
We arrived at the largest county town nearby before noon.
"Master! There are so many people!"
"Why don't they keep their hair? We received our hair from our parents, how can we cut it off?"
"Their clothes are so strange, why are they wearing Hu clothing?"
"...Master...what are those poles they're holding? And that little board, it actually glows, and there are living people..."
Gu Qingcheng perfectly portrayed what an ancient native should look like.
She timidly pulled Chi Powang's sleeve and, using a secret method of transmitting sound, bombarded him with a series of questions.
Chi Powang: ...
He can still answer most of the questions.
After all, he lived to the Republic of China and visited big cities such as Beijing and Shanghai.
I've watched movies, made phone calls, and used guns, etc.
More than eighty years have indeed brought about earth-shaking results.
However, no matter how things change, the essence remains the same. Chi Powang has seen or guessed most of the things.
Only——
yes!
These young people, both men and women, were holding a pole with a small tablet tied to it.
There was a light and an image on the small tablet.
Is this a smaller version of the movie?
But it's obviously more advanced than the movie.
"Hey! Well, this should have only appeared recently!"
Chi Powang coughed lightly.
Although it was a little embarrassing, Chi Powang was not someone who pretended to know everything.
He would not deceive his disciples for the sake of so-called teacher's dignity.
He was ready to stop a young man and ask him for serious advice.
Chi Powang had a hunch that this thing must be very important.
Because of his keen discovery, it seems that everyone living down the mountain has it.
They would also sweep the papers hanging on the roadside stalls and then take the things away.
"Can this thing be used as money?"
Chi Powang observed carefully and found that people here didn't need money to buy and sell things.
No suckers or copper coins, no foreigners' British pounds or ugly dollars!
Chi Powang remained calm and did not show the ignorant look of a country bumpkin who had just arrived in the city.
He observed carefully and pondered carefully.
I have summarized several questions and plan to find a friendly young man to ask them.
At this moment——
Gulp! Gulp! Gulp!
A series of clear sounds came from Chi Powang's stomach.
Chi Powang: ...Although his cultivation is high, he is still in the acquired realm.
Unless he reaches the Xiantian realm, he cannot practice fasting, he must eat and drink water!
I started working early this morning, and then used my spiritual power to travel.
After struggling for most of the day, the first embarrassing thing happened - he was hungry!
Then, Chi Powang discovered the second embarrassing thing - no money!
The bag he was carrying was priceless, but it couldn't be exchanged for money.
As for himself, he had fought with the evil Onmyoji and escaped with serious injuries. Except for a peach wood sword, all the talismans and magic weapons on him were used up.
All the silver and money were lost during the escape.
Chi Powang is now penniless and has no money.
But he is not a real hermit. He traveled around the world and learned the basic principle that food costs money!
No money?
Then make money!
As the heir of the Shenxiao Palace and the number one cultivator in the world, Chi Powang has many ways to get money and food.
However, Chi Powang refused to take the wrong path.
He is now a master, and he not only has to teach his disciple the skills, but also has to teach her by words and deeds.
"Let's go! Master will take you to make money!"
Chi Powang channeled his energy into his dantian and suppressed the intense feeling of hunger.
He carried a huge bag and brought his well-behaved little apprentice to a place that looked like a market.
Gu Qingcheng followed silently and watched the whole process.
She saw her master, with a delicate face still tinged with childishness, borrowing a piece of cardboard and a watercolor pen from the auntie selling things at the stall.
Swish, swish, swish, Chi Powang wrote two lines of big characters——
A true prediction! A fortune telling worth a thousand gold!
Gu Qingcheng: ...
Very good, a Taoist elder who has lived for more than 200 years and a half-human, half-corpse who has been dead for a thousand years, the first thing they do when they enter the "human world" is to set up a stall to tell fortunes!
In this world, not only the heroine is a charlatan, she and her cheap master have also become charlatans!
