Volume 1: The Great Tribulation of Longhan Chapter 10: "Scumbag" Yun Zhongjun
" The master is back, the master is back!"
"We have guests, we have guests!"
"Go tell Sister Ling'er quickly, go tell Sister Ling'er quickly!"
As soon as everyone entered the cave, they heard a voice as childish as that of a child.
But inside the Yunxia Cave, a group of mountain spirits and wild monsters saw someone coming from the cave, and they called their friends and ran around to tell others.
Mingyu also saw a few timid fairy elves who hid themselves and only dared to peek from afar.
"Please forgive me, fellow Taoists. I haven't been back for nearly 200,000 years. I have neglected to discipline these wild monsters. I will definitely try to discipline them in the future."
Yun Zhongjun said forgiveness, but the smile in his eyes never disappeared.
Upon seeing this, everyone expressed that they liked these free-spirits very much.
In particular, Taoist Yuchen praised Yun Zhongjun highly and affirmed his efforts.
He also said that there was a group of lively monsters in his Yuchen blessed land.
These mountain spirits and wild monsters must have received a lot of teachings from Yun Zhongjun, otherwise there wouldn’t be so many intelligent ones!
"Be quiet, and return to your own territory."
At this time, a little girl's voice sounded, the childish voice pretending to be majestic.
All the mountain spirits and wild monsters stopped making noise and followed his orders, returning to their own territories.
Everyone saw a little girl, about seven or eight years old, with fair makeup and wearing a goose yellow dress, walking towards them from a distance.
"Ling'er greets the master and all the seniors." The little girl who called herself Ling'er came up to the Taoists and saluted.
Then she stood aside with her big watery eyes.
"Are you Ling'er?"
Unexpectedly, Yun Zhongjun looked up and down at the pretty little girl in front of him and said something that stunned everyone.
So, you don’t recognize the creature that came out of your own cave?
Ling'er stared at Yun Zhongjun with eyes wide open in disbelief, then tears welled up in her eyes and her voice sobbed:
"Wuwuwu, the master doesn't want Ling'er anymore, the master doesn't want Ling'er anymore,
It was the master who said he was going out and asked Ling'er to wait for him in the cave.
Ling'er waited and waited, waited and waited for 200,000 years, until Ling'er had transformed into a human form, but the master still hadn't returned.
Now, the master finally came back, but he couldn't recognize Ling'er.
Wuwuwuwu, Master, do you not want me anymore?..."
Ling'er's crying made Yun Zhongjun so confused that he seemed to be at fault.
Seeing his three fellow Taoists standing aside with a joking look on their faces and acting indifferent, he gestured for him to handle it himself.
The way Mingyu looked at him was even more weird. If Yun Zhongjun was a modern person, he would understand - the way Mingyu looked at him was as if she was looking at a scumbag.
Yun Zhongjun felt helpless at the moment, so he had to squat down to comfort Ling'er, "How could the master not want Ling'er? I was just surprised. I didn't expect Ling'er to be so talented. She had already transformed before the master came back, and now she has reached the level of a Golden Immortal. Remember, before you left, you were still a little deer."
God has pity on Ling'er. Before Yun Zhongjun left, Ling'er was just a little deer in the celestial realm. In less than 200,000 years, she transformed and cultivated into a golden immortal. He really didn't expect it.
Fuxi on the side glanced at Yun Zhongjun silently, then set his gaze on Ling'er.
"Interesting, really interesting. It turns out that fellow Daoist Yun Zhongjun is also a fellow Daoist!"
"Master, what are you looking at?" Mingyu felt that the way Fuxi looked at Ling'er was somewhat familiar.
"She is the same as you!" Fuxi replied.
Like me? Isn't she a little deer?
Mingyu was stunned for a moment, then reacted, "You mean, she was also a childhood saint, and was also deceived by Yun Zhongjun? Hiss~~ Isn't this illegal?"
Thinking of this, Mingyu felt a little pain in his liver.
Oh my god, can these adult innate divine beings do something serious? Is there any justice in this ancient world?
"Wait, this really doesn't seem fair."
No one knows where the Heavenly Dao is now.
In addition, the Heaven and Earth Contract is something certified by the Heavenly Dao. In other words, this kind of "cheating and deceiving" behavior is actually "officially" encouraged or approved by the Heavenly Dao camp.
That……
Mingyu looked at Ling'er in front of her and felt a sense of sympathy.
Fuxi didn’t know what Mingyu was thinking, but was choked by his words.
"That's not the case. If we do this, it's actually a different kind of protection for the young... ahem, for the innate sacred ones that haven't grown up yet. After all, the next great world won't be peaceful. It will be chaotic for a very long time."
At the end, Fuxi sighed.
Mingyu was thoughtful after hearing this. He asked suddenly, "Master, were you just trying to save face and change the subject?"
“…”
On the other side, Ling'er burst into laughter after hearing Yun Zhongjun's explanation.
"Master really hasn't forgotten Ling'er?"
"real!"
"You really don't want Ling'er?"
"real!"
"Did the master bring any gifts for Ling'er?"
"That's...wait, what gift?"
After Yun Zhongjun finished speaking, he secretly thought that something was wrong.
Sure enough, Ling'er's mouth pursed, and the tears that she had just held back flowed down.
"Yes, yes, yes! Look at my memory, of course there are gifts."
Yun Zhongjun quickly tugged at his sleeves while secretly sending a message to the three fellow Taoists who were watching the show on the side.
His two hundred thousand were either busy practicing Taoism or running around for the immortal camp, and he didn't collect any spiritual objects at all.
Unfortunately, Yun Zhongjun had found the wrong person. Apart from Sui Sheng’s spiritual treasure, the other three Taoists were now more dishonest than their own.
Taoist Yuchen and Taoist Changsheng were in similar situations to him.
Taoist Fuxi did collect them before, but he gave them all to Nuwa!
Suddenly, Fuxi thought of something and sent a message to Mingyu, asking him to take out some "little toys".
Then Mingyu thought for a moment, flew to Yun Zhongjun, and handed him two spiritual treasures.
A wooden sword and a small windmill.
He begged Nuwa to make the wooden sword for him using paulownia wood. It was an acquired spiritual treasure that contained part of the great way of creation and was helpful in his enlightenment.
The key is the small windmill, which he made himself in his spare time. At that time, he was thinking all day long about how to earn merit and "wool" the heaven.
This little windmill is one of the products of his "fleecing" of the Heavenly Dao—a lower-grade acquired spiritual treasure of merit.
It can trigger the wind disaster among the three disasters.
Its power is neither strong nor weak, but its value lies in the merit it brings.
In this era when the Heavenly Dao has just emerged, not everyone can "pluck" the merits of the Heavenly Dao from time to time like Mingyu.
After taking the magic treasure from Mingyu, Yun Zhongjun was shocked by the great principles contained in the small wooden sword. He was even more surprised after seeing the magic treasure of merit.
This gift is not expensive for a Daluo like him.
But you also have to see who took it out?
Think about Taoist Feng Xi's attitude just now...
So is this a direct disciple?
With something in mind, Yun Zhongjun paused and looked at Xiang Mingyu again.
——Are you sure?
--certainly!
Mingyu nodded calmly.
really!
Yun Zhongjun glanced at Taoist Feng Xi vaguely, and seeing that he just smiled and nodded, he became more determined in his thoughts.
While thinking about something, he handed the gift to Ling'er.
Ling'er was very happy to receive the two novel gifts. She held them in her arms with her little hands and smiled brightly.
"Ling'er, go pick some spiritual leaves from the spiritual roots in the backyard first, and then go get some spiritual spring water so that I can entertain the guests."
Yun Zhongjun hurriedly instructed Ling'er, fearing that the little guy would do something else.
"Yeah, Ling'er knows!"
Ling'er nodded obediently, then skipped away with Lingbao in her arms.
"Excuse me, fellow Taoists." Yun Zhongjun then stood up and bowed to the three Taoists.
"No, no, little friend Ling'er is so beautiful and talented. We envy you for having such a good disciple." The three Taoists also laughed at this time.
"Thank you for your help, young man." Yun Zhongjun thanked Mingyu again.
Mingyu quickly shirked her responsibility, “This is what the younger generation should do.”
"I can't let you suffer any loss, but I really have nothing now. How about this? I'll make you a promise: when you reach the level of Taiyi Jinxian, you can come to my Yunxia Cave Heaven, and I'll lend you the gourd to help you realize the Dao for three thousand years. How about that?"
Yun Zhongjun spoke with a serious face.
"Fellow Daoist, how can this be done?" Fuxi spoke quickly.
Taoist priests Yuchen and Changsheng were all moved.
The gourd was obviously something that Yun Zhongjun would inherit in the future. He lent it to Mingyu for three thousand years. This return gift was too generous.
"Hey, this is my sincere wish, I hope you won't stop me."
Seeing this, Fuxi didn't know what to say.
Mingyu also said seriously: "Thank you for your kindness, Senior. I will obey your command respectfully!"
This time I made a fortune!
"That's great!" Yun Zhongjun laughed.
Taoist priests Yuchen and Changsheng made up their minds to take this as a warning and prepare more spiritual objects for themselves in the future, otherwise they might end up like Yun Zhongjun one day!
After all, they both have younger disciples.
Yun Zhongjun became a negative example without knowing it.
