Taoist Temple of Time and Space

Chapter 433 440. I let you say everything, so how can I pretend to be aggressive!
The seemingly aged Jiang Ziya flashed past like a monkey, stretched out his free hand, and gently tapped the young man's back, and the young man collapsed to the ground like mud.

"Old man, when I get up, I will take good care of you"

The young man did not admit defeat at all, tilting his head and clamoring.

Jiang Ziya ignored it and continued fishing.

On the banks of the Wei River, the wind was rustling, but the scene was a little weird.

The middle-aged woodcutter who came with the young man came over and said cautiously: "Old man, Wu Ji is young and ignorant, please let him go."

When Jiang Ziya heard this name, his heart was shocked. Not long ago, he calculated through innate gossip that he would accept a man named Wu Ji as his apprentice.

"Your name is Wu Ji, and there is only one mother in the family."

The young man, that is, Wu Ji was taken aback, and then asked back: "Old man, it's the first time we meet, how do you know that there is only one mother in my family?"

Jiang Ziya smiled and said nothing. That's right, it was this person. The hexagrams showed that this young man lost his father and was brought up by his mother. He was destined to be his apprentice.

But there is a problem right now, this apprentice has a bloody disaster, and he is a bit rebellious, so we have to dampen his spirit first.

Thinking of this, Jiang Ziya tapped his hand, and Wu Ji, who was unable to move at first, was fine.

"I'm ready"

Wu Ji got up from the ground and stretched his muscles. Seeing that he was fine, he looked at Jiang Ziya with a hint of awe.

The middle-aged woodcutter on one side is busy pulling Bukit.

"The old man has let you go, so hurry up and leave."

Wu Ji said just now that he was looking for Jiang Ziya to settle accounts, but it was actually a face-saving statement. Hearing what his companion said, he didn't care about other things, and left in a panic.

Jiang Ziya looked at the direction where Wu Ji disappeared and let out a hearty laugh.

"Old man, what are you laughing at?"

A sudden voice sounded.

Jiang Ziya turned his head to look.

From the grass, came out an old man dressed in plain clothes but undeniably extravagant, and beside him was a young man with a somewhat rebellious expression, who was supporting the old man.

"Without him, I just met a predestined person"

Jiang Ziya put away his smile and looked at the old man calmly.

The person who has been waiting for him has finally arrived, Xibo Hou Jichang.

Is it really Ji Chang who came?Of course not, the old man is actually Chu Feng.Ji Chang is over 70 years old this year. In order to make himself look older, Chu Feng specially asked Nezha to become a young man to support him.

"Old man, do you know that there is a sage here named Jiang Ziya?"

Chu Feng, come up straight to the point.

Jiang Ziya didn't expect Xibo Hou Jichang to be so direct, he paused, and was about to answer.

"It's you"

Chu Feng's tone was indifferent, and he didn't look excited at all when he met the sage.

Jiang Ziya nodded blankly, why Xibo Hou Jichang is a little different from the legend.

Chu Feng groaned, and turned his gaze to the hook of the fishing rod.

"The hook is straight—"

Jiang Ziya smiled with his beard twisted, with an inscrutable expression on his face.

"Ning Zai-"

"It's better to get from the straight than to ask from the song." Chu Feng finished what Jiang Ziya wanted to say first.

"Uh"

Jiang Ziya froze there like a cat with its neck stuck.

You've already said it, how can I still be so incomprehensible (pretending to be cool)!

"You use a straight hook to fish?" Nezha asked, then shook his head: "I did it before when I was at the East China Sea, it's nothing strange."

Jiang Ziya no longer knew what to say. This was completely different from what he had imagined.

"Well, what are you capable of? Let Xibohou see it."

Nezha spoke again, looking arrogant, as if he was picking goods at the market.

Jiang Ziya frowned, turned his head away, and ignored him.

Seeing this, Nezha turned his head and said to Chu Feng: "This man can't even tell what he is capable of. He doesn't have much capability even if he thinks about it. Let's go back!"

"Okay, let's go look elsewhere"

Chu Feng nodded cooperatively.

"..."

At this moment, Jiang Ziya's heart is so cool, it shouldn't be that the sage was found by the monarch through untold hardships, and the sage reluctantly agreed to the monarch's courtesy.

Why didn't you even ask, and left.

What should I do next? Do I have to go back and tell my master that Marquis Xibo didn't like me.

After walking more than ten steps, Chu Feng suddenly turned around.

Jiang Ziya felt relieved. Fortunately, he came to his senses. As long as you speak politely, Pindao will go back with you, help you govern the country, and help you overthrow the tyrannical Shangtang.

With Nezha's support, Chu Feng came to the front and found fish in Jiang Ziya's fish basket, and asked politely, "Sage, how do you sell the fish in your basket?"

Jiang Ziya's heart was once again chilled, since you know that the poor are sages, shouldn't you ask about the way of governing the country, why do you ask the fish in the basket, you are really the Xibo Hou Jichang admired by thousands of people.

Fish is so delicious!

"Fish, don't sell it!"

Jiang Ziya uttered three words in frustration.

Chu Feng stared at the fish in the basket for a long time, and then said with a leisurely expression: "Governing a big country is like cooking small delicacies, spreading the word to the world, its ghosts are not gods. If it is not its ghosts, it is not gods, its gods will not hurt people. Neither gods will hurt others, nor saints will hurt others. Husbands and wives will not hurt each other, so the virtues are restored."

Jiang Ziya's expression was startled, and he replied: "Cooking fish is troublesome and it will be broken, and governing the people is troublesome, and it will be scattered. If you know how to cook fish, you will know how to govern the people."

Nezha, who has never read a book, looks confused, what are you two talking about.

Chu Feng laughed.

"Then ask the sage to make a fish soup and show it to the Marquis."

Jiang Ziya's expression froze.

“Pindao is not good at cooking”

"Let's do it first"

Chu Feng was speechless, he was also a man who was good at talking.

……

In front of a thatched cottage not far from the Weishui River, Jiang Ziya was busy cooking, setting up airs and cooking.There was dirt on the clothes and on the face.

Nezha, who was silent along the way, said to Chu Feng in a low voice: "This man said just now that cooking fish is troublesome and it breaks, and governing the people is troublesome, and if you know how to cook fish, you know how to govern the people. , can't be a liar."

Jiang Ziya moved his lips, but said nothing.

Half an hour later, after eating and drinking enough, Chu Feng stood up and cupped his hands.

Jiang Ziya's heart was shocked, Xibohou was finally about to speak, saying that he had been on the mountain for more than [-] years, and he planned to practice Taoism and become an immortal, but he did not expect to return to the human world.

"Thank you Daoist Jiang for your hospitality. The Marquis still has a lot of political affairs to deal with, so I'm going back now."

Chu Feng looked grateful.

"Thank you Daoist Jiang for your hospitality"

Nezha imitated Chu Feng and cupped his hands.

How could this happen? Jiang Ziya still didn't like him. For the third time, Jiang Ziya felt cold inside.

"Farewell"

"Farewell"

Under Jiang Ziya's almost resentful gaze, Chu Feng and Nezha left the fenced yard.

For a long time, Jiang Ziya looked at the sky in the yard with a look of despair.

"Master, my disciple is incompetent."

……

Thirty-five miles away, in a forest, Chu Feng and Nezha, one big and one small, stared blankly at Shen Gongbao and Xibohou and his party in the distance.
