I Can’t Be a Sword God

Spring is coming gradually, the climate in the south of the Yangtze River is getting warmer, and the air is already moist and fresh. The wind hits the face, carrying the fragrance of the earth.

A distinguished guest came to Deyun Temple.

This is a tall and tall young man, who is full of heroism and wears a black cloak. With double eyes and double pupils, he walks like a dragon and a tiger, making people think of four big characters when they see him.

awesomeness.

Behind him was a tall girl, dressed in black, with snow-white skin and a cold face.

These two people were exactly Chu Xiangyu, the young master of the Tiannan Chu family who had appeared in Huaxu's secret realm that day, and Chu Ci, the maid.

When Lao Du came out to greet them, although he didn't know the two of them, he could tell from his posture that it was a big customer coming, and his smile suddenly became warm.

"I'm here to find a very handsome Taoist leader, right?" Chu Xiangyu asked.

"Yes." Dulanke said with a smile: "The most handsome Taoist priests in the whole Hangzhou Prefecture are in our view."

Chu Xiangyu looked at this enthusiastic black face with a doubtful smile.

Li Chu came to the front hall and received the most famous young man from Tiannan Qijia. He was born with a domineering physique, and he had heard of it a long time ago, but he didn't know what the other party wanted when he suddenly came to him.

"We want to ask Daoist Master Li to come out and help." Chu Xiangyu didn't exchange pleasantries, and directly stated his appeal.

As soon as Li Chu heard that it was a business, he also expressed his willingness to hear about it.

"Since you entered the Huaxu Secret Realm last time, the reincarnation of Huaxu's projection has been broken." Chu Xiangyu said: "Now the Huaxu projection is no longer reincarnated in endless destruction, but a strange change has taken place. Projection It is no longer once a day, but all the people who entered last time exit, and the next projection will start, and the cycle has become much longer."

"Another important change is that as long as you enter the projection, you can get rewards."

"These rewards range from low to high, and they are very rich. They should all be extracted from the treasures left by the ancient Huaxu country back then. There are many treasures that even a family like me valued very much."

"My Chu family is in urgent need of one of the treasures, but the competition is too fierce now, and all the seven Tiannan families have entered it to recruit practitioners from all directions. Even with the strength of my family, there is no guarantee of obtaining it. At this time, I just heard , Xiao Daoist Li’s performance in the secret realm last time was quite miraculous.”

Li Chu smiled slightly.

This job is similar to the Qi family's recruitment last time, it's nothing more than leveling. It's just that the rewards obtained this time will be handed over to the Chu family, so the price will naturally be quite higher.

He didn't ask for a price, but said softly: "Young Master Chu's absurd praise, it's not magical, it's just 'taking people's money and eliminating disasters'."

"Money is of course indispensable." Chu Xiangyu immediately understood.

"I learned that the last time the Qi family recruited practitioners, they paid you five hundred taels. On this basis, our Chu family will naturally add a little more as appropriate."

As soon as he raised his hand, Chu Ci behind him handed over a thick bank note.

"We offer one hundred thousand taels."

He put the banknote in front of Li Chu and said lightly.

"And after the matter is completed, if the reward Xiao Daoist Li received is really what my Chu family needs, an additional one hundred thousand taels can be added."

"..." Li Chu was silent for a while.

Although he really wanted to call him a big dog, but...he really liked this way of doing business.

"Little Taoist priest, think about it, when can you give me an answer?" Chu Xiangyu asked again.

"You don't need to ask me when to reply, Mr. Chu can just tell me when to leave." Li Chu replied lightly.

"Little Daoist Li is really refreshing, haha." Chu Xiangyu smiled brightly, "The next time the Huaxu Secret Realm is opened, it will take about two or three days. Little Li Dao can prepare well when he grows up."

"Yes." Li Chu nodded.

After the deal was finalized, Chu Xiangyu smiled boldly again.

"Little Daoist Master Li has great powers, and he is straightforward. He is really a first-class wonderful person. This trip to Jiangnan is really worthwhile. No matter how much it costs, it is worthwhile to make a friend like Xiao Daoist Master Li."

As a natural dominance, he has always been arrogant, but he is never narrow-minded. Facing peers who are likely to be stronger than himself, he is also very willing to make friends with him, and he will not feel jealous.

"That's right."

Li Chuzao silently put the banknote into his sleeve, and then said solemnly, "It doesn't matter if it's money or not, the main thing is to make friends."

...

Chu Xiangyu was also a vigorous and resolute person, and after the negotiation was settled, he left Deyun Temple. Li Chu looked at his back with deep joy in his heart.

After all, I have another lifelong good friend.

At the same time, it also strengthened his determination to work hard to fight monsters and upgrade.

Strengthening strength is not only a life-saving move, but also a way to get rich.

Thinking that every time I killed an evil spirit, what would flow into my body was not pure experience points, but gold bars, silver notes, copper coins, real estate...

His heart couldn't help but agitated again.

I can't wait to get dark and go to Shilipo to kill some lantern monsters to add to the fun.

Came to the backyard and told the master what happened just now.

"The ancient country of Huaxu..." Yu Qi'an twitched his beard, "It's no wonder that the Tiannan Seven Family are so excited about the great treasures left before the country was destroyed. Many of these things may have been difficult to find in modern times."

"Then Chu Xiangyu of the Chu family is also a character. Among the juniors of the Tiannan Seven Families, he is the most talented and magnanimous. If the Chu family falls into his hands in the future, it may not be a blessing or a curse for He Luochao. .” Li Maoqing habitually thought of court disputes.

"Hey, the national teacher doesn't have to think too much." Yu Qi'an smiled lightly.

"Even if he can lead Tiannan Qijia to be strong, so what? The general trend of the world... Sometimes you are on top, sometimes I am on top, it is normal. The important thing is that everyone should be happy. It’s impossible to kick me down, and no one will be happy like that.”

"Hmm..." Li Maoqing frowned, "What Guanzhu Yu said made some sense, but it sounds weird..."

Wanli Feisha, who was squatting beside him, suddenly raised his head, "Can't one be happy alone?"

"You're still young..." Old Du also sighed, and said, "You'll understand when you get older. Can being alone be called happiness? It's just to make yourself less sad..."

"You don't have to be so pessimistic." Yu Qi'an patted the old disciple's shoulder, "If two people who are forced together don't fit together, then it's better to be happy alone."

Old Du's eyes flickered: "I can't even imagine how happy Master is."

"No..." Li Maoqing suddenly felt a little dazed, "What were we talking about just now?"

"It's about Li Chu going to the Huaxu Secret Realm." Yu Qi'an then changed the topic, then suddenly remembered something, raised his eyes and said: "Recently, Xiaoyue'er and the others just closed their school for a few days. Spring break, why don't you take her with you when you enter the secret realm this time?"

"this……"

Li Chu hesitated for a moment.

Although past experience has proved that bringing a small koi to the secret realm often brings unexpected surprises, but...wouldn't it be a little too cruel?

From Jiang Shouyin in the Fuyuan Secret Realm to many people in the Calabash Cave... But anyone who has competed with the little koi will often fall into a deep confusion.

The most recent one is the fox girl who goes to school with Xiao Jinli. These days, Li Chu often sees her thinking about philosophical issues in the temple.

For example, how to face the injustice of fate? What is the point of working hard? Is koi the true meaning of life? Is there a river at the end of the universe?

etc……

"This child is always surrounded by people when she goes out recently, and she is not in a good mood. Take her out to relax." Yu Qi'an is very concerned about the physical and mental health of the little koi.

The old saying pays attention to intergenerational relatives, which is quite intuitively reflected in the old Taoist priests. He has always cared more about the little ones in the view, such as the little koi, the little fat dragon, Duranke...

Of course, the first two are just younger. In terms of seniority, only Lao Du is the real grandson...

In the backyard, everyone chatted with each other. The breeze blows, and the leaves of the old locust tree rustle.

As the view became lively, this kind of tea party became the norm every day. Even if one or two is missing, it can still be opened.

Li Chu didn't make a sound often, and just listened quietly there.

After staying for a while, another person came to the front yard, Lao Du went out to greet him, and then came back to report. It was a young man with a strange appearance who claimed to be Li Chu's friend.

A strange face immediately appeared in Li Chu's mind.

Going out to have a look, as expected, it was Zhao Liangchen.

...

"I haven't seen you for a few days, Daoist Li, don't be safe." Zhao Liangchen said with a smile.

"Brother Zhao too." Li Chu responded politely.

The two of them were already old acquaintances, so there was no need to chat too much, Zhao Liangchen directly explained the purpose of their visit.

"A few times ago, I did exorcising evil spirits and exploring secret realms. I wanted to come to join Daoist Li. It was just a coincidence that I came here. You were always in Shenluo City at that time. Recently, another way to make money came up."

Zhao Liangchen said: "I heard that the Tiannan Seven Families have been developing a secret realm recently, which requires a lot of manpower. So they wantonly recruit practitioners, above the Shenhe state and below the decline state, and there will be hundreds of taels of rewards for those who come to the scene. If If you can get some rewards from the secret realm, then the reward will be even more."

"Several of my senior brothers have already tried it, and they all said that it is a good opportunity, and it can also train people. I was planning to go to see it in two days, and I just heard that Daoist Li, you are back, so I wanted to come to see you." Come with you, hehe."

He smiled innocently.

But Lao Du at the side looked sideways and vertically at his strange face, and all he saw were the words "hugging thighs" brightly.

Indeed, in the case of the Huaxu Secret Realm. Find a thigh to go in together. If you are lucky, you can lie down directly into the third layer. Now no matter what, you can get some rewards mixed in, why not do it?

But nowadays, can you still find thicker thighs than Li Chu?

Zhao Liangchen couldn't think of it for a while.

"I have already agreed to the Chu family's invitation."

Li Chu didn't hide it, and directly told about Chu Xiangyu's visit to ask him to help.

"So that's how it is..." Zhao Liangchen also nodded when he heard this, "With the strength of Daoist Li, no matter which family invites you, it can be said to be sure."

"Since that's the case, when Little Daoist Li leaves for the southern border..." He paused heavily, "Please take me with you!"

"no problem."

Anyway, if you like this kind of thing, it's almost the same to bring one or two, and Li Chu doesn't mind bringing another person into the secret realm besides Lao Du.

"Thank you." Zhao Liangchen thanked, "I was lucky enough to earn a few thousand taels this trip, and with the money I saved before, I can buy a house in Hangzhou!"

Li Chu also knew before that although he was a relative of the wealthy Zhao family, he was a collateral line after all, and his family was not considered rich. If it weren't for a talent for cultivation, it might be necessary to take up the three items of short, poor, and ugly.

It can also be regarded as an inspirational example of practicing to change destiny.

but……

Li Chu was still a little puzzled, "Brother Zhao, you devoted yourself to cultivating the Tao before, and you didn't seem to care much about these things. Now why..."

Why are you like me now?

"Yes." Zhao Liangchen didn't shy away, raised his head, and said with emotion: "Back then, I was considered a prodigal son in the Hangzhou mansion. I devoted myself to cultivating, killing demons and demons, and thought that I would be so lonely and unruly in this life. Pass."

"I never thought about it, but on a certain day in a certain year and a certain month, I seemed to be blindfolded by peach blossoms, as if I was knocked down by youth. My young boy's heart, which was about to move, suddenly... broke the ground."

Speaking of this, he didn't know what to think of. On an ugly face, a smile began to appear.

Li Chu and Dulanke looked at him calmly with question marks on their faces.

Zhao Liangchen seemed to have noticed the indifference of the two, smiled embarrassedly, lowered his head and began to speak humanly: "That's...that...they are in love."

"Pfft." This time, Lao Du's expression was completely changed to shock.

As calm as Li Chu, the inside of his pupils was also vibrating crazily.

"This is really unexpected good news." Li Chu said slowly, "Congratulations, Brother Zhao."

"Hey, I can't compare to you, Daoist Li, you are so handsome by nature, girls like it when they see it." Zhao Liangchen looked into the distance again, and continued.

"It's not easy to have someone who loves me, so I must cherish it."

"Ever since I met her, I have been thinking about working hard for our future. Only then did I realize how unreliable I was and how extravagant I was in spending money." Zhao Liangchen continued on his own: "So From now on, I must work hard to make money, save more money, buy a house as soon as possible, and I have to be close to the school. If I buy a carriage, I have to drive it out to save face. Thinking of these, I will have the energy to do anything."

"Brother Zhao, there is no need to be envious of others." Li Chudao: "No matter how you look, meeting a good relationship is a blessing in life. You know how to cherish it because you are transparent."

"Master is right." Old Du also answered, encouraging: "Brother, you are still so young, you don't need to be under too much pressure, you will have the money, the car, and the house. "

"I'm not young anymore." Zhao Liangchen raised his head and said.

"I'm in my twenties, and if I don't work hard to get married, I'll be in my thirties in no time. Time passes faster and faster, and I'll be in my forties in a flash. What if I'm poor, ugly and old when I'm in my forties, Even if I am a cultivator, who would be willing to marry me? When that day comes, what is the point of living? If the cultivation level is not high, what is the difference between death and death?"

"Do you think I can have no pressure?" Zhao Liangchen smiled again while talking, "Fortunately, I am lucky, now I have met someone who wakes me up, and I can avoid falling into that terrible life... ...Eh? Why are you crying, Taoist priest?"

"I'm fine." Lao Du shook his head vigorously while bursting into tears, "I just remembered something terrible..."

"Look a little more..." Zhao Liangchen smiled and patted him on the shoulder.

"As a human being, the most important thing is to be happy."

Thanks to the leader of "Dust of the Doomsday", thank you Brother Dust, I owe you 47+1=48.
