Seeing that the holiday is about to begin, according to the rules of previous years, County Secretary Liu will definitely hold a summary meeting.
At that time, Qin Jingye will face the situation of being laughed at by everyone again.
However, the matter of attracting investment cannot be rushed.
Qin Jingye could only frown all day long.
Yundingshan Villa.
Qin Fan finished his training, a divine light flashed in his eyes, and he breathed out a white bolt.
That breath turned into a three-foot long sword and slashed into the air. The fog of nearly a hundred meters was dispersed, and the air sword continued to fly for another hundred meters before dissipating.
"It's not far away from entering the Sword Raising Realm, we just need an opportunity."
"Today is the 27th of the lunar calendar. Let's go home and take a look first!"
"I wonder how Hu Kan and Zheng Shuhao are doing now?"
These two people are Qin Fan's childhood friends, but they have rarely contacted each other since they entered junior high school, but the relationship between the three of them remains as good as ever.
Qin Fan called the old Taoist priest, gave him a holiday, and asked him to find a place to celebrate the New Year.
However, the old Taoist priest has no worries and has always been at home in all corners of the world. He was still eating instant noodles on the first day of the Lunar New Year last year. When he heard that Qin Fan was going back to his hometown to celebrate the New Year, he immediately expressed his intention to go back with Qin Fan and was willing to work as a ox and horse for his master.
Qin Fan wanted to refuse, but the old Taoist priest burst into tears on the phone, saying that he was helpless and had never had a full meal during the New Year, and he hoped that the master would take him in.
Helpless, Qin Fan could only agree to let him follow.
Then there was Ye Qingcheng. This time Qin Fan didn't call, he went directly to the community and told Ye Qingcheng face to face that he was going back to his hometown for the New Year.
Qin Fan's original intention was to ask Ye Qingcheng to go home and visit, but Ye Qingcheng said directly: "It just so happens that I also want to go to my uncle and aunt to pay New Year's greetings!"
Considering that Ye Qingcheng had run away from home, it was normal not to go home for the New Year, so in the end he had to take her with him.
In this way, Qin Fan simply waited for Qin Shou to come back and act as the driver.
If he takes a car, with Ye Qingcheng's appearance, many troubles may arise out of thin air.
The old Taoist priest called and said he would return to Dongzhou at two o'clock in the afternoon.
Qin Fan stayed at Ye Qingcheng's place for lunch at noon.
At the dinner table, Xia Zhu, who wore a floral apron around her slender waist, served three dishes and one soup while squinting at Qin Fan.
"Master Qin, when are you going to teach my young lady how to practice?"
Hearing this, Ye Qingcheng immediately put down his chopsticks and stared at Qin Fan closely with a pair of beautiful eyes.
Qin Fan looked at Ye Qingcheng with admiration in his eyes, as if looking at a piece of finely carved jade.
It wasn't until Ye Qingcheng's pretty face turned slightly red when he saw him that he said calmly: "Are you sure you want to take this path?"
Ye Qingcheng nodded: "OK."
"No regrets?"
"No regrets." Ye Qingcheng looked determined.
"Even if you pay for it with your life, your soul will be scattered, and you will never be reincarnated forever?" Qin Fan's voice seemed to come from the Nine Nether Hell, and it had a terrifying power.
Ye Qingcheng was slightly startled. She seemed to see a mountain of corpses, a sea of blood, and the Asura Hell from Qin Fan.
In an instant, Ye Qingcheng's beautiful face turned extremely pale.
However, after just a moment, her face returned to a determined look.
"Even if there is no recovery, even if my soul is destroyed, I will have no regrets!"
Qin Fan looked at her for a while and said nothing. Ye Qingcheng's attitude was much firmer than he expected.
He no longer had any reason not to teach her.
"Come to your room with me after dinner." Qin Fan said calmly.
Ye Qingcheng's face instantly showed a look of ecstasy: "Yes, master!"
"That's pretty much it!" Xia Zhu also smiled with satisfaction.
Half an hour later, in the south-facing bedroom, Qin Fan stood in front of the window with his back to Ye Qingcheng, staring at the mist-shrouded Yunding Mountain in the distance.
Ye Qingcheng stood respectfully behind him, her graceful figure trembling slightly with excitement.
"You've always wanted to control your own destiny, right?"
Ye Qingcheng was slightly startled. He didn't know why Qin Fan suddenly asked this question. He nodded subconsciously: "Yes!"
"Then do you know what fate is?"
Ye Qingcheng understood that Qin Fan had already started teaching.
She thought for a while and replied: "Destiny is the life path that others have arranged for you. I want to change this path."
"What happens after the change?"
Ye Qingcheng couldn't answer. Who could know the fate after the change?
Even though her family had planned a route for her, she still didn't know what her final fate would be.
Qin Fan slowly turned around and answered for her: "After the change, you have no idea what is waiting for you ahead."
"Even before the change, even if your family has arranged a route for you, you still don't know what is waiting for you ahead."
"What you want to change is just a marriage, or a transaction, not destiny."
Ye Qingcheng raised his head and asked, "Then how can I control my own destiny?"
Qin Fan asked directly: "Before I answer you, let me repeat the question I just asked, what is fate?"
This time, Ye Qingcheng did not answer.
According to Qin Fan, destiny is simply unknown and unpredictable. What she calls changing her destiny is actually changing a marriage.
After a moment of silence, Ye Qingcheng shook his head, looking confused: "I don't know anymore."
Qin Fan stared at her and said something that made her stunned.
"So, there is no destiny at all."
Ye Qingcheng was shocked: There is no destiny!
Yes, if fate is unknown and unpredictable, it proves that no one knows what will happen in the next second.
Taking herself as an example, if she accepted the marriage at home, she would marry the young master of the Zhao family.
But what if the Zhao family master regrets it? What if Young Master Zhao dies of illness?
All this is unknown.
Now she ran away from home and worshiped Qin Fan as her teacher, gaining great power. But there will always be people more powerful than her in this world. What if she is killed on the way to practice?
Everything is unknown, completely unpredictable, and even impossible to predict.
So, there is no destiny at all.
Since there is no destiny, how can we change it?
Ye Qingcheng seemed to understand something, but seemed to understand nothing at all.
There was just a flash of inspiration in my mind, vaguely like I had caught something, but I didn't catch anything.
Qin Fan continued: "Practice can't change your destiny, but it can change the rules."
"If you become a master, the rules of the secular world will change for you."
"If you become an immortal, the rules of this world will change for you."
"If you become a great emperor, the rules of this universe will also change for you."
"This is the kind of freedom you want to pursue."
Ye Qingcheng's eyes became brighter and brighter. She already understood the meaning of Qin Fan's words.
There is no destiny, don't complain, and work hard to become a strong person, only then can you get the freedom you want.
"I understand, thank you for your guidance, master."
Qin Fan nodded, and with a thought in mind, he took out a book of exercises from the storage ring and handed it to Ye Qingcheng.
"This is the seventh-grade divine ascending technique. It is a technique suitable for women to practice. You try to practice it first. I will check your practice progress after a while."
"Remember, this technique must not be known to anyone, even the people closest to you. Once you have read it, destroy it immediately!"
"Yes, I remember it!" Ye Qingcheng looked serious.
