When Yue'er hurried to the Main Hall, Pei Wende was already sitting in the temple blessing position, answering questions for the pilgrims who came to offer incense and ask for fortune-telling.
After experiencing the "mirage incident", Pei Wende had a new understanding of the duties of these temple blessings.
Not to mention that it can 100% solve the confusion in the hearts of pilgrims, but it can also help them face the obsessions that they are unwilling to face to the greatest extent.
At the same time, Pei Wende also truly understood what "all forms of living beings" are in this process.
Not to mention that different people face different choices, even if the same person faces the same thing, they will make different choices at different times.
And those complicated and completely different choices are simply the best material for Pei Wende, who has practiced the method of "enlightenment in dreams".
Through continuous contact and understanding of all living beings, Pei Wende feels that his method of "enlightenment in dreams" may one day be able to build an extremely real world.
Of course, the premise is that Pei Wende can survive until that time.
After all, although today's Pei Wende has cultivated a golden body and achieved heavenly status, his lifespan is still only five hundred years.
This is considered a long time for ordinary creatures and even dynasties, but in the entire long river of time, five hundred years is just a short moment.
"Eternal life", an idea that seemed far away to Pei Wende in the past, has been successfully reflected in reality.
Pei Wende, who once simply wanted to experience a different life, finally became obsessed with and pursued immortality under the influence of Xiao Qing.

"Brother Pei!"
After confirming that no one wanted to cancel the ticket for the time being, Yue'er, who had been waiting silently beside him, finally couldn't hold it any longer and sat down opposite Pei Wende.
"Your father has agreed?"
Without even raising his eyelids, Pei Wende, who had already understood what happened in the backyard, asked.
"Yes, my father has agreed to my practice!"
Unable to conceal her excitement, Yue'er, whose eyes were already shining, nodded vigorously.
"Okay, let's read this book for a while."
Pei Wende took out the book he had prepared from under the incense table and handed it to Yue'er who looked stunned.
"Nine chapters?"
Although she has never been exposed to systematic arithmetic, as the daughter of a businessman, how could Yue'er not have heard of the name of this book?
In particular, representatives of both Buddhism and Taoism - Li Chunfeng, Seng Yixing and others compiled "Ten Books on Sutra Sutra".
Then it was promoted as a teaching material for the Imperial College, and even became a subject of the imperial examination. Arithmetic has become one of the prominent studies today.
As the ancestor of the "Ten Books of Arithmetic", "Nine Chapters of Arithmetic" written by Zu Chongzhi, a great mathematician in the Southern and Northern Dynasties, has become a compulsory subject for all arithmeticians.
"This nine-chapter book on arithmetic is the introductory subject for your practice. If you don't understand anything, you can ask me at any time."
Without any intention of joking, Pei Wende nodded under Yue'er's bewildered expression.
"Brother Pei, are you kidding?"
Opening the book handed over by Pei Wende, Yue'er, who felt that her outlook on life had been subverted, asked again in a low voice.
"I want to practice magic like Zhang Chusheng, instead of learning these things that I have no use for."
The obscurity and profoundness of "Nine Chapters of Arithmetic" can be heard even by people like Yue'er who have never been exposed to it.
Moreover, Yue'er had never heard of the secrets of cultivation hidden in "Nine Chapters of Arithmetic". She felt that Pei Wende must have picked up the wrong book.
"I'm not kidding. If you want to get started, you have to learn nine chapters first."
However, now that Pei Wende has taken out this book, he naturally has his own rhetoric.
"You are different from Chu Sheng. He has very high qualifications and has a Buddhist connection that ordinary people do not have. For him, the way of cultivation is just a matter of course."
"But you are different. You have already passed the age of cultivation, and you have no wisdom."
"If you want to formally enter the path of spiritual practice, you have to find another way and suddenly enter the path with the 'Qimen Dunjia Technique'. Only then will you have a chance to catch up with Chu Sheng."
"To put it bluntly, the 'Qi Men Dun Jia Technique' is to use some 'natural principles' that ordinary people don't know to realize various magic techniques that are close to the magic of gods."
"For example, 'fire' can burn in water, 'wind' can make iron blocks float in mid-air, and 'thunder' can hurt people ten steps away..."
"These are all part of the 'Qi Men Dun Jia', and they are also the easiest way for you to enter the Tao."
"And if you want to master these 'Qimen Dunjia Techniques', arithmetic is the foundation you must master."
When he said this, Pei Wende's voice paused deliberately to give Yue'er time to digest what he had just said.
"Of course, it's not impossible if you are willing to practice hard and become a Taoist."
"After all, the ordinary way of practice is certainly not suitable for you, but hard work is not selective!"
"Blacksmithing, studying medicine, practicing swordsmanship, archery..."
"As long as you are willing, I am willing to teach you all the skills I am good at."
"It's just that I want to emphasize in advance that if you want to enter the Tao in these ways, in addition to spending hard work, the magical powers you obtain may not be the magical powers you want."
At this point, Pei Wende had no intention of lying to Yue'er.
Whether it is forging magic weapons or refining elixirs, the magical powers they require do not have any ornamental or lethal effects.
As for the only sword technique that might fit Yue'er's imagination?
Unless she can practice at the level of "Sword Immortal", in the eyes of ordinary people, she is just an ordinary chivalrous woman.
The most important thing is that Pei Wende fully understands Yue'er's original intention of practicing.
After all, Pei Wende himself came from the age of second grade, and the various gorgeous and powerful magical powers are what really attract people like them to practice.
The prerequisite for "enlightenment and entering the Tao" is that you must devote yourself to it wholeheartedly.
For a weirdo like Yue'er, if she wants her to devote herself wholeheartedly to a certain skill, there is probably nothing more suitable than the mysterious and magical Qimen Dunjia.
"Isn't there any other shortcut?"
She asked reluctantly, because Yue'er never imagined that her first step on the road to spiritual practice would be to learn arithmetic.
"No!"
Pei Wende, who firmly put an end to Yue'er's thoughts, with a faint smile on his lips, asked again.
"So do you want to learn or not?"
Seeing this situation, Yue'er knew that she had no choice, so she could only grit her teeth and nod in agreement.
"Learn! Why not learn?"
"Learning arithmetic is at least better than blacksmithing and running all day long. I don't want to become a 'rough guy' like Zhang Chusheng."
