"Look again."
Tongtian did not agree at once, but only included the human race into the range of options.
Mortal world.
Chonglin Shangxian led ten immortals to find Zhang Bairen, who lived in a country house, and descended outside the gate of Zhang's mansion. The gate of Zhang's mansion was open, and there were servants cleaning the ground in the yard.
"Sir Chonglin, is this really Zhang Bairen's residence? Why is it so simple?"
As far as the Immortal Clan is concerned, this place is a second courtyard. It is not like the prosperity of a noble family; it is not like the splendor of the palace, and it is not like the luxury of an aristocratic family. The Zhang family is just a merchant family with a lot of property, but they also know how to be frugal. .
"This place is the residence of Zhang Bairen, who was appointed by the two saints. There is no mistake." Chong Lin, the Immortal, nodded.
"I never expected it. It's too simple."
Chonglin said to the immortal: "This is the old residence of the Zhang family, so it is normal for it to be simple. Simply, they come here to escape the summer heat, and it is convenient to negotiate with them."
He said so, and the ten immortals who came with him stopped talking.
"Who are you?" An old man in his fifties walked out of the yard. He was dressed in light blue cotton and had kind eyes. He walked very tough.
"Old man, we are here to find Zhang Bairen, the head of the Zhang family." Immortal Chonglin said politely.
"Are you looking for our master?" The old man looked at them for a while and saw that they were dressed luxuriously, with materials he had never seen before, and they had an aura as pure as a fairy. He couldn't help but be stunned, "I wonder who you are, and why are you looking for my master?" "
Chonglin said to the Immortal: "This matter can only be discussed after meeting the head of the Zhang family. Please forgive me, father-in-law."
The old man looked at them a few more times and nodded, "Everyone, please go into the yard for a while. I will go and invite the master."
"Thank you."
Following the old man, he entered the courtyard. The furnishings in the courtyard were simple, but clean and elegant. After sitting down in the hall, the old man asked someone to serve tea while he went to the backyard.
"Master, master." The old man trotted into the backyard and stood outside the main courtyard where the master's family lived. "Master, someone is looking for you outside."
"Who is looking for me?" A middle-aged man in his forties came out, followed by a gentle and beautiful woman. "Who is looking for me?"
"I don't know." The old man shook his head and said in embarrassment: "The clothes on their bodies are very luxurious, but I have never seen the material. They only said that they can only explain their purpose after meeting the master. The old slave thought not to offend, but also thought about them I came to see the master for something. I invited someone into the courtyard, and now I am waiting for the master in the hall."
Zhang Bairen smiled and said, "Uncle Zhang, that's what you should do if you do a good job. If you are a guest from afar, you must be well received. I'm going right away. Madam, can you come with me?"
"Of course it's fine." Mrs. Zhang followed with a smile.
The two walked side by side, with Uncle Zhang following behind.
After walking out of the second entrance hall and arriving at the first entrance hall, Zhang Bairen burst into laughter before the guests could react.
"When a visitor comes from afar, the humble house becomes radiant."
Immortal Chonglin stood up and bowed to Zhang Bairen, "Master Zhang."
"I wonder what you call them? What do you mean you are here to find me?" Zhang Bairen bowed in return.
"I'm here to find Zhang Bairen, the head of the Zhang family."
"Oh?" Zhang Bairen was surprised.
Zhong Lin glanced at Uncle Zhang. Zhang Bairen waved away Uncle Zhang and asked, "You guys have extraordinary temperament. I guess you are not ordinary people."
"We are members of the Immortal Clan. Under the orders of the two saints, we are here to take Zhang Bairen, the head of the Zhang family, to heaven for his enthronement."
"Fairy clan?!"
Zhang Bairen was full of questions, what good thing had he done to make people from the immortal clan come over.
Chong Lin took out the jade plaque that proved his identity, "My name is Chong Lin."
"Immortal Chonglin." Zhang Bairen and Mrs. Zhang bowed deeply in greeting.
"There is no need to be polite, this is sudden; it is actually forced by the situation, and I apologize for the many rudenesses of the Zhang family and Mrs. Zhang."
"Don't dare."
Immortal Chonglin spoke frankly and repeated the sage's words, "The sage said that within five days, the head of the Zhang family would be taken to heaven to receive
Seal, there are only four days left to enter; please take care of family affairs, head of the Zhang family, and return to heaven with me. "
"Wait, wait, Immortal Chonglin, I don't understand very well; I am just an ordinary mortal, how can I attract an immortal family to come to my home to welcome you?"
"Master Zhang is too humble. You have always cared about all the people. There are few people in Shangtian Prefecture who have not received your favor. Your kindness and the great merits you have unknowingly cultivated are the reasons why the saint looks at you differently. . What the saint values is your heart and your responsibility."
It is difficult to do good deeds. If a person can persist in doing good deeds and do good deeds with joy in his heart, then his merits are truly immeasurable and he can achieve great merits without even realizing it.
However, maintaining a good heart is the most difficult thing.
It is very easy for people to get lost in worldly fame and wealth, and the karma accumulated over many lifetimes; they always self-righteously believe that they should make progress after suffering losses. However, in which direction is the progress made? .z.br>
Is it good or bad?
Are you more determined to do good, or are you just going along with others and following other people's habits?
"So simple?" Zhang Bairen was really surprised, his eyes widened in disbelief.
Simple?
Immortal Chonglin pinched his fingers, and the ten immortals behind him were equally frustrated. Looking at Zhang Bairen again, they saw that he was indeed showing his true feelings and was not pretending. They just wanted to cry.
They know very well how rare merit is; they have not been able to get much merit after years of fighting. This time the two saints are cleaning up the sins of the world. They are lucky enough not to do anything wrong and escape.
Think about the several gods who were knocked down to earth. Those with more merits were punished more lightly, while those with less merits were punished more severely. For example, Qingqiu Baizhi, he really suffered the punishment.
At that moment, they deeply realized the importance of merit.
Only merit can make them sit back and relax.
"Master Zhang, you'd better take the time to arrange your family affairs and wait for me to die." Besides, they were going to vomit blood.
Mrs. Zhang asked nervously: "My master is gone, what will happen to me and my children?"
"Yes, what should I do with my wife and seven daughters? There are no men in my lineage. Once I leave, it will be difficult for them. No, I can't leave." Zhang Bairen woke up from the shock and could no longer care about it. He couldn't bear to leave his wife and daughter for the joy of immortality.
"The Zhang family is leaving, so naturally Mrs. Zhang and the seven ladies will leave together."
"What about my servants?" Zhang Bairen thought of the old Uncle Zhang again, "Uncle Zhang watched me grow up and took care of us with care. Now that he is old and has no children around him to fulfill his filial piety, we cannot abandon him."
Chonglin Shangxian clenched his fists, then loosened his fists, and said helplessly: "Take it, take it away."
"Can you really take it away?"
"Yes!" Chonglin was helpless. If it weren't for the saint's order, he really wouldn't be able to bear it. If a good person is so kind, he has learned a lot.
He then reflected on himself, whether he could do this.
The answer is, no.
He can't do it.
Chonglin sighed, but he felt sincere admiration; he couldn't do it, but Zhang Bairen could do it, and he did it well.
