Chapter 174 The Purpose of Seeking Tao (22)

Wen Ling likes smart people, but it's not good if people are too smart. People who are too smart tend to be complacent, but his way tends to be clumsy and simple.

Thinking this way, Wen Ling walked up to Zhou Xia.

Zhou Xia immediately raised her head and said, "Dean Wen, please test me with at least one question and give me a chance!"

Wen Ling sighed, and said, "Okay, then I will ask you, what is your ultimate purpose when you come to me to learn Taoism?"

The people around thought that Zhou Xia would say some righteous words, but unexpectedly, Zhou Xia said sincerely:

"Dean Wen, I came to the Taoist Academy to become stronger. You are the reincarnation of a god, you know Taoism, and you can defeat a hundred with one enemy. You must be the strongest among the human race. I came here just to Become a strong man like you."

All the people around the audience were dumbfounded.

Doesn't this girl know how to hide it? speak so directly?

Wen Ling was completely disappointed with Zhou Xia this time, this girl really wasn't suitable for a Taoist monastery. He shook his head and said, "If that's the case, Miss Zhou, I can only refuse you to be admitted to the hospital. The study of Taoism is not to make people stronger. It is not suitable for you if you learn more and lose your way. , please go back."

Zhou Xia was stunned for a moment, and then quickly argued: "Dean Wen, indeed, my purpose is different from other people who just want to study knowledge, but my heart is sincere, and I will work very hard..."

But before she could finish speaking, Wen Ling interrupted her and said:

"Please go back and reflect on what kind of path you want to take. In a few years, if you still have the heart, it's not too late to come again."

Wen Ling felt that if she refused completely without lowering her face, this stubborn girl might not be able to leave. What's more, he gave Zhou Xia a little setback this week, which would make her more mature. In the future, no matter whether Zhou Xia is willing to continue studying with him, it will be beneficial to her.

And if Zhou Xia has experienced these setbacks and is still willing to come to learn Taoism at that time, then he will truly have the indomitable heart to seek Taoism. At that time, he will take a test on her, and then officially enter the door.

Hearing Wen Ling's last complete refusal, Zhou Xia's body shook slightly, and then slowly lowered his back.

After a while, Wen Ling heard her sobbing.

A thread of sympathy appeared in Wen Ling's heart, but he quickly restrained his emotions, turned his back, never looked at Zhou Xia again, and strode away.

Zhou Xia's crying became louder and louder, and finally she had to fall on the ground and support herself with her hands, crying until the ground in front of her was almost soaked. Her two mothers were very distressed and kept trying to persuade her.

Lu Lun and Tao Cui, who were watching from a distance, were also a little surprised. Why did Wen Ling completely reject Zhou Xia before they could make a move?

But it's good, this saves their effort, and now they have to wait for Zhou Xia to make his way back.

Beside Zhou Xia, including the guards, several people had come to persuade her. She said thank you several times, then wiped her tears with her sleeves, raised her head, and stood up with her teeth gritted.

"Come on, let's go back to the inn."

Zhou Xia's voice was still choked with sobs, but she managed not to continue crying.

When Wen Ling returned to the study, Huang Si had already sat on the table with his math materials behind him. In fact, the thickness of this pile of materials is constantly changing. From time to time, some more materials will appear in Huang Si's hands, and after looking at them, they will be placed on top of the pile of materials. Now, the height of the materials has increased again, and they are almost piled up to the roof. .

Seeing Wen Ling enter the study, Huang Si asked him, "You rejected that Zhou Xia outside?"

Wen Ling nodded: "I don't think she is suitable for entering my monastery now, so I let her go back to China."

Huang Si looked at the mathematical materials in his hand. Various formulas were constantly superimposed on that page, and he would automatically turn to the next page from time to time, piling up more formulas. Wen Ling also poked his head curiously. , looking at this miraculous information.

"Don't you think that girl is very similar to when you were a child?" Huang Si said looking at the math problem.

"Well, it is indeed very similar, but it is because of the similarity that I know that I can't let her go astray. She must let her get rid of the habit of arrogance and calm down before she can start to learn the Tao. I directly gave her a Frustration, let's see if she will change like me." Wen Ling sighed, recalling the time when he was taught by Huang Si in the past.

At that time, he was complacent because of his talent, and he was obsessed with showing off and arguing. It wasn't until the arrival of Xiyuan that he understood what it meant to say that there are heavens and people outside the sky and people outside the sky.

Huang Si looked away from the math data, and looked at Wen Ling thoughtfully: "But, Zhu Yao, my opinion of this girl is different from yours. You may be too blind and partial."

Wen Ling was stunned for a moment. After thinking about it, he still didn't know where he made a mistake in his judgment. He did reject her for the good of Zhou Xia.

He thought about it for a long time, but he couldn't think of anything wrong. This girl is really not suitable for entering a Taoist monastery. So Wen Ling said: "Please respect the gods."

Huang Si said lightly: "This is just my personal opinion. It's just different from yours. Just wait and see her result."

...

But Zhou Xia's side was not so calm.

She took the people around her back to the inn, but she didn't expect to see a person she hated very much at the door of the inn.

"Xia Xia, what a coincidence, are you also in Jingguo? I happen to be working here too. I just finished my work today and am going to go back. I don't know you..." Lu Lun stood at the door, putting on a self-important pose. The posture of a person, showing courtesy to Zhou Xia.

Before he finished speaking, Zhou Xia said, "I'm not free." Then he went into the inn.

Looking at Zhou Xia's back, Lu Lun secretly hated him.

Why isn't this little girl smart? She is already in such a miserable situation, why don't you hurry up and find a man to rely on, even his status as the queen's nephew can't attract her?

It seemed that he had to do something on the way back home.

On the fourth day, Zhou Xia packed her bags and was ready to return home. She looked sleepy, with endless melancholy locked between her brows, but her hands were still crisp and sharp. The old lady persuaded her softly beside her, and she hummed in a coping manner from time to time.

When she took the people around her out of the inn, she saw that annoying person again.

Lu Lun also stood at the entrance of the inn with his guards, and there were two large carriages parked beside him. Seeing Zhou Xia approaching, Lu Lun suddenly showed a greasy smile and said, "What a coincidence, Xiao Xia, I'm just about to go back to China, you Is this going to go back too? How about we..."

Zhou Xia said coldly, "I won't go with you."

After all, Zhou Xia took people around him and walked out of the inn's courtyard.
