This is a path never imagined.
In fact, according to my own wishes, I would rather be a free and independent practitioner.
After all, in the novels I read in my previous life, most of the protagonists had to cultivate themselves to be successful. As for the monks from any sect who followed the rules and followed the steps, they were basically stepping stones for the protagonist to pretend to be AC and get slapped in the face.
Besides, being a Taoist priest cannot eat meat!
Bastards are omnivores!
Wang Qiyi smacked his lips and was a little confused. If he said he didn't want to practice, it was definitely a lie. Who wouldn't be tempted by this opportunity? But when it comes to wanting to join a Taoist sect and become a Taoist priest, he is somewhat reluctant.
"Can I still eat meat after joining?" This is the question he is most concerned about at present, and it is directly related to the quality of life for the rest of his life.
After evolving for so many years, he finally climbed to the top of the food chain, but he had to take the initiative to become a vegetarian. Wang Qiyi felt 1.2 million unhappy.
Unable to keep up with his jumping thoughts, Qingfeng couldn't help but be startled and a smile spread across her face, "Brother Wang misunderstood, entering Xuanmen does not mean that you become a Taoist priest."
"To put it simply, nowadays there are fewer and fewer people who can practice Buddhism. Taoist priests, such as the brothers and sisters of Yunshan Temple, are devout believers but have low spirituality and no talent for cultivation. Therefore, they are just ordinary Taoist priests; while there are many spiritual People who are very tall and are lucky enough to have the opportunity to embark on a path of spiritual practice but do not become a monk and only practice Taoist techniques are disciples of Taoism."
Wang Qiyi’s eyes immediately lit up!
Understand, Taoist priests do not necessarily need to be immortals; those who can cultivate immortals do not necessarily need to be Taoist priests.
"Then I want to join!"
Since there is no need to become a monk and abstain from eating meat and fish, what else is worth considering? When such an opportunity is presented in front of them, I believe that few people, oh no, bastards, can resist the temptation.
"Brother Wang, there is no need to rush to reply." Qingfeng waved his hand and explained patiently: "You have to know what kind of situation you will face if you join or not. You will not be able to turn back after choosing this path. It is better to be cautious."
"With the current way of practice, even if you join Xuanmen, you may not be able to be promoted successfully. On the contrary, you may not be able to withstand the thunder tribulation and die early. Generally speaking, you have to study hard, practice seriously, and go on missions with a high risk factor. If you get injured Even the risk of death is very high. According to our statistical data, nearly 30% of people lose their jobs during promotion every year."
"The benefits of joining currently include: you can obtain a legal status; be able to study systematically; and have the opportunity to accumulate merit in exchange for skills and elixirs. Before you become a real monk, you can only be regarded as an intern, and there is no salary, but I You can negotiate with Yunshan Temple and use the income from the wishing pool as your pocket money."
It sounds like there's nothing wrong with it except that the risk is high.
But in the last life, the bloody struggle resulted in an untimely death. In this life, I have become the bastard of the wishing pool. Isn’t it nice to just lie down?
I can still get a +1 every day. I can accumulate it slowly and endure it slowly. Living to be 180 years old is just like a joke. Isn’t it good?
As the saying goes, the world will be brighter if you take a step back. Wang Qiyi thought that being a bastard was much better than joining the Taoism.
"What are the advantages and disadvantages of not joining?"
Qingfeng put away the notebook and explained: "The advantage of not joining is that you can continue to enjoy yourself leisurely. Yunshan Temple will naturally not treat Brother Wang badly. However, not entering Xuanmen means that you will not get guidance and cannot practice, and you will not be able to practice. Without elixirs and techniques, even though Brother Wang can transform into a human body in the future, he will have no legal identity."
"In addition, you cannot appear in the temple in your current spirit form. Otherwise, if you encounter ordinary people with high spirituality or weak horoscopes, which are often called 'yin and yang eyes', it will cause unnecessary trouble. More importantly, One thing - after the body gives birth to spiritual wisdom, you are no longer an ordinary turtle, but become a very precious and rare medicinal material that can be used to refine elixirs."
"In today's world where spiritual energy is scarce and precious elixirs are not easy to obtain, if Brother Wang is noticed by someone with intentions, he will definitely die if there is no organization to protect him. In addition, there is a puppet master hiding in the dark today who has seen you through the paper puppet. With your appearance, they are very likely to cause trouble for you in the future. To protect yourself, you must be very low-key and not show up easily to avoid being remembered."
The bastard in the Wishing Fountain is actually a medicinal material that can be used to make elixirs?
Wang Qiyi really wanted to give himself a thumbs up silently, seeing how this time travel would help him find a shell.
"What will happen next to the Yangtao family? They won't be in danger, right?" He said that he would think carefully before giving an answer, but he was still curious about the follow-up that left a lot of questions unanswered.
Qingfeng could feel the kindness that came naturally from his heart, and replied with a smile in his eyes: "I have sent people to investigate. On the one hand, I will find out the cause of the fire and whether there are any clues left in Yangtao's house; on the other hand, I will track down the things you brought back. If these three insects are artificially domesticated, the insect master will order or prevent the mother insect from taking the next step. The other party can unilaterally cut off contact, but with these insects in hand, there is still a chance to follow the clues and find the location of the mother insect. "
"Also, we will conduct an in-depth investigation into the suspected meritorious power of Yang Tao. Any contact will leave traces. Even if the memory of the person involved is modified and overwritten, there will be ways to trace it."
Wang Qiyi asked very wisely: "If I join, can I participate in it? If I don't join, you have confidentiality regulations and can't reveal more, right?"
Seeing the other party nodding, he refused to give up and asked, "Even if you don't join, as long as the Taoist Master stays at Yunshan Temple and I only come out for a walk occasionally, it should be safe, right?"
"Of course I can protect your safety at the Taoist temple, but I won't be stationed here for a long time." Qingfeng smiled helplessly and shook his head: "As a manager, I need to move around the country on duty. Without any unexpected circumstances, it can be as short as three to five months. It may take a year or two to rotate.”
"Besides that I am a true Taoist priest and like to live in peace and quiet in Taoist temples, I prefer to live in a lively city when I am in charge of other things. And I also need to go to the city for duty. I usually am away from the Taoist temple for two days a week, and when I am busy, it may be ten days If you don’t come back for half a month, you will be very passive if someone is watching you, so try to keep a low profile."
Of course, Qingfeng is willing to let him join. In today's world, which is changing rapidly, one more alliance can bring more strength.
But it is also undeniable that you will face a high degree of risk after entering Xuanmen.
The other party is just a bastard in the wishing pool, simple, kind and smart. He doesn't want any factors to affect Brother Wang's control of his own destiny. All he can do is explain the reality, pros and cons of the situation as fairly as possible.
As for whether to join, let him think carefully before making a decision.
"It's so annoying. I've already traveled through time and become a tortoise. Why do I have to do multiple-choice questions?" Wang Qiyi slowly climbed out of the back mountain library, rubbing his face and feeling a little worried.
It's good to lie down, but the risk factor is a bit high, and Qingfeng Dao's long golden thighs can't be hugged for a long time.
If the puppet master behind the paper puppets could be solved as soon as possible, it would be easier to settle the case. At least there would be no need to worry that the puppet master would be interested in seeking revenge on himself.
If it is a difficult and serious case, Taoist Priest Qingfeng cannot solve it before he is transferred. If he stays in Yunshan Temple where there are no monks to guard the place where tourists are everywhere every day, he will be easily exposed and targeted and become a bastard on the tip of his tongue.
