That being said, I really should think again.
Although it seems that Taozi came to seek refuge with me, in fact, most of the daily expenses come from Taozi.
You can't just take Taozi's money and go out to give favors, right?
While we were talking, the young couple walked in. They didn't say anything as soon as they entered the door. They just kowtowed to us.
Xu Mo was helpless and wanted to help the two of them up. I waved my hand and said softly: "Let them knock."
"This is going to shorten your life."
As the old saying goes, if you don't raise a child, you won't know the kindness of your parents. Only when I became a master can I truly understand the painstaking efforts of the master.
The couple's age was, by visual inspection, older than ours, so it was really not good for them to kowtow.
However, if they kowtow, our karma will be even, otherwise they will still owe me in the next life.
After a long time, the couple finally stood up and said a truckload of grateful words.
I stood up, nodded, and said softly: "We don't want any money, but we have a small request."
"You say!"
"Play gongs and drums to send a plaque to Baiyun Palace."
"I'll definitely do it!"
After saying that, I raised my hand and pointed at Zhi'an: "He is the head of Baiyun Palace, and he is behind everything."
"I don't need to say who I want to thank, right?"
Zhi'an looked at me with a complicated expression. He wanted to say something, but he swallowed it back: "That's okay."
"Then do it."
After taking care of everything, it’s time to sleep and rest.
When we walked out the next day, Zhi'an was also filled with tears of gratitude, but I just smiled at this.
When he first helped me, it was an obligation, but now things have changed.
I have always believed in one thing, there is money spent in vain, but there are absolutely no good things done in vain. Sooner or later, these will be paid back.
Seeing that we had reached a fork in the road, I said softly: "I won't go to Baiyun Palace now. I have things to do at home."
"ah?"
Zhi'an was obviously a little surprised: "This..."
"Everything is stabilizing. You should be busy with the affairs of Baiyun Palace."
After a long silence, Zhi'an suddenly said: "I would like to invite you to be the deputy head of Baiyun Palace."
Now it was my turn to look shocked: "Are you kidding me? I can't match the thousands of years of Taoist temples?"
"You're still the deputy head? If I come to your place as a Taoist boy, you'll think I'm too old!"
Zhi'an shook his head seriously: "I'm serious, I'm not joking."
"I didn't know until last night that the gap between us is not even a tiny bit. If it were me, I would have taken action last night."
He sighed softly: "In the end, both sides will definitely suffer."
"You know, this isn't the scariest thing."
"That is?"
Zhi'an shook his head with a wry smile on his face: "The scariest thing is that we always thought that this was the right thing to do."
"I didn't sleep last night and carefully considered the gains and losses over the years."
"Well..." He pondered for a moment: "I always thought that many of us were injured because of my incompetence. In fact, there is something wrong with me as the leader."
"That's why I want to invite you to Baiyun Palace. I'll recruit my former disciples back and learn some skills from you."
I never thought that one day I would be treated like this.
As far as I know, Baiyun Palace holds a ritual ceremony every year, which is a public recruitment ceremony for Taoist priests.
From appearance, height, to study time, everything has clear regulations. It can be said that those who can enter Baiyun Palace are the best in any industry.
As for the deputy head, this is even more unthinkable.
There is no circle without rules, and the Taoist family rules are even more strict. Even if you want to become an ordinary scripture teacher, you must first memorize all the vast Taoist classics.
One can imagine how valuable this leader is.
