"An old man with a broken leg who has been frozen for more than two hundred years, and whose life is in trouble, would have any motivation to adopt two children? Does he really like children? Such a person should not believe in 'raising children to prevent old age' Let’s talk about it.”
"Do you know anything about your origins?" Xu Qian asked this question in a calm tone. He noticed that the scarred man Odo looked towards them.
"I can't remember clearly. I was only two years old at the time. My father said that I was an abandoned child. If he hadn't adopted me, I would have starved to death on the streets."
Xu Qian felt that there seemed to be something wrong with this. Abandoning children happened in every country, but they usually wouldn't be abandoned until they were two years old. Moreover, abandoned babies in France would be adopted by welfare agencies, so there would definitely be no hunger. Death on the streets.
Xu Qian felt a murderous aura from Scar Otto, and he felt funny in his heart. I don't want to take care of these messy things in your family. Is it necessary to be so guarded against me?
"By the way, can you tell me about the cultivation system in Europe? To be honest, I don't know much about it, but I am somewhat interested." Xu Qian did not change the topic intentionally, but was really interested in this issue. of.
"The realms of European monks are roughly the same as yours in China. They are just represented by letters. Grade G corresponds to your Fengchu realm, grade F corresponds to Qin Xin realm, and grade A to Taiqing realm." Daniel, the fat chef, walked in. .
"Chinese immortals cultivate the sea of qi, while monks cultivate the soul, and then use the body as a medium to activate the power and rules of all things in the world for their own use. This is the magical power of the monks." Tailor Martin also walked in.
Xu Qian stood up and shook hands with the two of them. Neither the ancient Eastern monk etiquette nor the Western etiquette applies to them, so the modern universal etiquette of shaking hands is most appropriate.
"There is no concept of sea of qi in the Western cultivation system, so how can we break through the Taiqing Realm and become an immortal?" Xu Qian was very confused. According to what he had learned, all the conditions for becoming an immortal need to occur in the sea of qi. Without the sea of qi, It means that you cannot become an immortal.
"No, Mr. Xu, in our cultural inheritance, there are only gods and not immortals. In Eastern theory, immortals are cultivated by humans, and gods are born from heaven and earth. In our cultivation civilization, we do not believe that humans can reach the height of gods. Man can only be under God, always look up to God’s existence, and obey God’s orders.”
Martin's words set off a storm in Xu Qian's heart.
He had never thought that there was such a big difference in cultivation civilization between the East and the West. To become an immortal and to be on an equal footing with gods has always been Xu Qian's concept, but today someone told him that no matter how much human beings practice, they will always be slaves of gods, and immortals do not exist at all. If this is the case, why do you practice? Is it to become a higher-level slave?
There is actually a saying circulating in the East today that immortals do not exist at all. In fact, for so many years, no one has been able to break through Taiqing. No matter how powerful a person is, he can only be stuck in the realm of Taiqing. It seems to confirm this view. The West is more straightforward and has never believed that it is possible for humans to be equal to gods.
"Is level A the end of your training?"
"No one in ten thousand can reach A-level. However, there are indeed strong people above A-level. We collectively refer to those who have surpassed A-level combat power as S-level. But even such super strong people are still human beings. It doesn’t reach the heights of God.”
"S-level..." Xu Qian couldn't understand what this S-level existence was. Logically speaking, there were earth immortals above Taiqing. Could it be that S-level was an earth immortal? It makes no sense. There has not been an Earth Immortal in China for thousands of years. It is impossible for Europe to do so.
"Generally speaking, China is ahead of the world in cultivation, and this has reached a global consensus. Almost every country hopes to obtain the Chinese Immortal Cultivation Technique to make their country stronger. People like you As long as an immortal cultivator is willing, it should be easy for him to obtain a high position in any country."
Xu Qian smiled and waved his hands. He didn't care about this at all. It was said that it was difficult to make water in the sea, but now Xu Qian can't see a high-ranking official and a generous salary. Not to mention in a foreign country, even in China, he has never been tempted by those things.
"Are you willing to live like ordinary people like this?" Xu Qian asked a sensitive question.
As soon as the question came out, there was silence.
Whether in the West or the East, no one wants to be ordinary once they embark on the path of cultivation. The path of cultivation is hard and full of dangers, but it is still desirable. Even if the material desires and vanity satisfaction obtained by being strong are excluded, it still has an irresistible charm.
Xu Qian saw a flash of light in the eyes of several people, and he already knew the answer.
Suddenly, several people came outside the bakery. They kept looking inside, but did not open the door to come in.
These people were wearing suits and ties, and they definitely didn't look like they were from the monastery.
"Who are they?"
Martin whispered: "They look like people from the city hall. I have met one of them."
Are the people from the city hall looking for you?
Xu Qian pushed open the door and walked out, "Are you here to see me?"
When several people saw Xu Qian coming out on his own initiative, they immediately smiled and said, "Hello, Mr. Xu Qian, we are from the city hall. Mr. Mayor asked us to invite you over as a guest."
"Being a guest?" Xu Qian was a little surprised, "Don't you know that the monastery expelled me not long ago?"
One of them had a very friendly attitude and said with a smile, "We know that there is still time, so it won't affect your meeting with Mr. Mayor."
Xu Qian didn't show any shame and asked directly: "You mean you can kick me out after I meet with your mayor, right?"
"No, that's not the case." The man also felt embarrassed, "The monastery and the city hall are two different systems. They mainly manage the affairs of the cultivation world. We mainly manage the daily affairs of Paris. You are a Chinese monk, mainly They are in charge, and it’s not easy for us to interfere.”
Xu Qian finally understood the relationship between the municipal government and the monastery. "In this case, why did you come to me again? Don't you have nothing to do with me?"
The other party was very embarrassed and said, "Mr. Xu, we don't know why the mayor wants to meet with you. We ask that you appreciate it."
Xu Qian didn't intend to make things difficult for these errand runners. Since he was invited and his attitude was okay, he went to see what medicine the mayor of Paris was selling.
Xu Qian turned around and said goodbye to Luo Xi and others.
He took out two Star Source Stones and handed them to Rosie, "Daniel's cooking is delicious. These two Star Source Stones can be used as meal money. I will taste them again if I have the opportunity in the future."
The official price of Star Source Stone in China is one million yuan, and it should not be cheap in Europe either. This is a hard currency that can be circulated in several worlds. It may not be easy to use among ordinary people, but it can definitely be exchanged in the circle of monks.
Rossi took it blankly, his expression indicating that he didn't know what it was. Daniel and Martin on the side all opened their eyes wide, and even Odo in the distance looked shocked.
"It's too expensive. No matter how delicious the food I cook is, it can't be worth so much money." Daniel seemed to be refusing, but Xu Qian could tell that he really wanted it.
"Haha, just think of me as being here with Luo Xi. If you need anything, just ask him. He has the final say. From now on, if I want to eat bread or make clothes, you are not allowed to charge me any more." Xu Qian was clearly helping. They, especially Rossi.
Although Rossi didn't know how valuable the two stone bars in his hand were, he still judged the weight from the expressions of his uncles. But he was not a person who said sensational words, so he just said: "Can I go to China to find you?"
"Of course. I wish you good results in the competition." After saying that, Xu Qian took Qian Shu and left the bakery.
"You're still looking for me. You don't even have the address. How can you find it?" Xu Qian actually didn't think that Rossi would actually look for him. The reason why he gave the Star Source Stone was purely because he saw that Rossi was a really nice person. , I don’t want him to delay his future because of money. Moreover, his life experience is also very suspicious. I hope that this money will allow his father and these uncles to treat him better. As for forming a good relationship, living with rare goods, and seeing each other again in the world, he had never thought about it at all.
