Jing Yingrong did not stay at that street corner for long.
Jijiebi asked: "Can their crime lead to death?"
Jing Yingrong blinked: "I didn't kill them."
Ji Yanzhu chuckled: "Do you think they can get through it?"
Jing Yingrong: "It's not impossible."
Ji Yanzhu: "Yes, yes, there is still a one-in-a-million possibility."
Ji Sha Sword hummed: "Why bother making all these twists and turns? It would be better to cut it with one sword."
Jing Yingrong: "That's so happy."
Ji Sha Sword: "..."
During the exchange, Jing Yingrong had returned to the Shark Tears Box.
Wang Zhengde was sitting in the lobby on the first floor. He stood up after seeing Jing Yingrong: "Xiao Jing, where have you been? Come on, walk around and follow me to report to the sect. Those two little bastards, let's They ran away, huh!"
Jing Yingrong: "Yeah."
Wang Zhengde took Jing Yingrong to report the matter to the sect. However, as the two people said, there was no substantial evidence, only the oral testimonies of those who were present at the time. In addition, it was not a major event in itself, so the sect was not related to it. Chu could only say that after finding these two people, he would ask them to pay a certain amount of compensation to the Shark Tears Box.
Wang Zhengde was dissatisfied with the result but had no choice but to scold the two men after coming out.
After scolding, Wang Zhengde looked at Jing Yingrong and said, "It's really unlucky to encounter something like this. We won't be open today. Xiao Jing, I'll take you to a place where pearls are cultured to relax."
Jing Yingrong: "Okay."
…
Wang Zhengde's pearl farm is on one of the islands in Yaohai.
They took a foreign ship to the island. The weather at sea was very good, and the sky was as clean and blue as if it was soaked by sea water.
Wang Zhengde looked at the scenery in the distance and talked to Jing Yingrong.
"When I first joined Taichu Guan, I was very ambitious and focused on exploring the path to immortality. I felt that the future of Taichu Guan, and even the entire world of cultivation, belonged to me."
"Later, I discovered that there were a lot of people like me in Taichu Guan, but they were not the best at heart, not at the top of their aptitudes, did not have a strong background, and were not favored by the seniors in the sect. "
"Even so, I didn't give up at the beginning. I practiced and practiced every month and every month, but my cultivation level was still the same, neither getting better nor worse."
"Cultivation is so boring. I finally thought about it. Instead of doing this hopeless effort, it would be better to live another life."
Having said this, Wang Zhengde stroked his goatee, shook his head, laughed at himself and sighed, and said: "It's hard for you to understand what I'm saying, isn't it? You've just entered Taichu Guan, and you're still young. When you are in high spirits."
Jing Yingrong nodded and shook his head, saying: "I can't understand it, but I know that there are many people like you."
"That is, those who can continue on the road of cultivating Taoism are not ordinary people. Such people are in the minority."
Wang Zhengde sighed leisurely, "Most people choose another path midway. Those who are ambitious and pursuing can still find another way to try. People like me are content with the status quo."
Jing Yingrong: "Do you mean opening a store?"
Wang Zhengde shook his head.
"I found a like-minded Taoist monk outside, and later I picked up a child. The child was still young. I planned to wait for the next disciple recruitment meeting before letting him try to join the sect, so I I have been staying in Qiongju Enclave, thinking that if he can come in, it will be easier for me to take care of him."
Jing Yingrong: "If the outer sect disciples cannot be promoted to the inner sect within a hundred years, they will lose the qualification to live for free in the Qiongju enclave. If they want to continue living, they need to pay spiritual stones or contribution points. Is that why you opened a store?"
Wang Zhengde stroked his beard and smiled and said: "That's indeed the reason. Although it's not a big business, the spiritual stones I earn are barely enough. If I don't practice, I don't need Taihua spiritual stones."
Jing Yingrong thought for a while and asked: "You want your child to worship Taichu Guan, then do you want him to be like you in the future?"
Wang Zhengde stroked his beard for a moment. He was silent for a moment, sighed slightly, and said: "To be honest, I don't want him to live like me. I hope he can go further on the road of spiritual cultivation than me. To set foot on a higher level, not only to become famous all over the world, but also to at least achieve something. But..."
Jing Yingrong: "But?"
Wang Zhengde smiled kindly, revealing a bit of kindness: "But this is just a wish. In fact, as long as he is happy, it doesn't matter how he lives."
Jing Yingrong's expression changed and she repeated: "It's just a wish?"
Wang Zhengde said: "Yes, most parents in this world have such expectations for their children. In the final analysis, they just hope that their children will live a better life and be happier. But those who are not stupid or bad will not It will force children to live according to their own wishes."
The reflection in the mirror is silent, looking at the place where the sea and the sky meet. Thick eyelashes drooped low, covering up the changes in light and shadow in her eyes.
Not long after, the island arrived. Wang Zhengde's pearl farm is on the edge of the island. It is neither large nor small.
Several servants were working in the farm. When they saw Wang Zhengde arriving, they greeted Wang Zhengde one by one.
After Wang Zhengde responded to them, he told them to continue working and ignore him, and then walked around the farm with a mirror.
While walking, Wang Zhengde smoothly introduced the relevant knowledge of pearl cultivation to Jing Yingrong. He spoke carelessly, but Jing Yingrong listened carefully.
Finally, we came to the room where the pearls were retrieved. One by one, the mother oysters were placed in the light shield constructed by the formation, waiting to be retrieved.
"Retrieving pearls is a technical job. If you don't retrieve them well, the pearls may be damaged, or the oysters may become deactivated. If it's an ordinary pearl oyster, it's okay, but if it's a precious emperor clam or shark oyster, it's fine. The loss would be huge!"
As Wang Zhengde spoke, he took out a pearl shell from the mask and demonstrated it to Jing Ying Rong using the pearl extraction tool prepared on the side.
Seeing a round pearl being taken out from the shell with skillful techniques, Jing Yingrong blinked and asked, "Can I try it?"
"Okay, try it."
Wang Zhengde handed the tool to Jing Yingrong, then handed her a pearl shell, and finally said: "Don't break the tool."
"Um."
Jing Yingrong poured the diluted spiritual power into the tool and imitated Wang Zhengde's method to get the beads. Wang Zhengde would make some remarks from time to time.
A pearl was successfully taken out. Wang Zhengde stroked his beard and praised a few words, "Not bad, not bad."
Jing Yingrong held the pearl between her two fingers and raised the corners of her mouth.
Before leaving, Wang Zhengde presented a mirror-yingrong pearl shell, a crown snail, an emperor clam and a shark clam.
"You can take it back and raise it for fun. If you don't want to raise it, find a spiritual chef to help make it into a dish. The meat of this thing is good for monks."
"Well, thank you, shopkeeper."
