Siheyuan: Banggeng and I are classmates

Chapter 45: The old Taoist shows his magical powers again. Mu Hua criticizes the immortals but is cr

After cursing inwardly, Li Fuhai simply didn't respond to the old Taoist priest. He turned around and aimed at Xiao Zhong.

"Dangdang~~"

One shot into the soul.

After turning around, Li Haifu looked at Aihua Qinghua's arrogant face and wrote a sentence.

Look, your dad is still your dad.

This scene truly shocked everyone present. No one had expected that he could hit the target with one shot. Not to mention the Li family, they had never even seen such a situation in all these years.

Before the crowd could cheer, they heard the old Taoist priest bow his head and say:

"You are indeed a blessed person. Just as your son said, everything will go smoothly for you from now on!"

"Everything goes smoothly, all the way is smooth. Everything goes smoothly, all the way is smooth..."

Xu Yan couldn't help muttering to herself as she listened to the old Taoist's words, and then a burst of ecstasy surged across her face.

"Dad, did you hear that? The master said that you will have smooth sailing and a smooth road ahead. Doesn't this just fit your job?"

The Li family then remembered Li Haifu's job, which was to be a driver in the freight department of the shopping mall!

May everything go smoothly and the road ahead be smooth. Isn't this the best blessing for driver Li Haifu?

For a moment, let alone other people, even Li Muhua, who had always been educated in materialism, became a little surprised and doubtful. If he could travel through time, then nothing in this world could be impossible!

Compared with multiple gods and time travel, it doesn’t seem that difficult to accept!

In this joyful atmosphere, only one person looked particularly depressed, and that was Li Qinghua. He was the only one among the six people of the Li family who had not been hit.

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but glance at the nine copper coins left in Li Haifu's hand.

"dad--"

As soon as Li Qinghua opened his mouth, Li Haifu patted him on the shoulder and stopped him from continuing.

"Hey, kid, throw it properly this time, don't be so impatient like a dog!"

"okay!"

Li Qinghua was overjoyed and quickly took the copper coin handed over by Li Haifu.

Then he and everyone in the Li family looked at the old Taoist priest at the same time. Li Muhua even opened his mouth and continued to ask: "Old Immortal, why don't you also give my brother——"

"Infinite Heavenly Lord!"

The old Taoist priest interrupted him directly, not letting him continue, and bowed his head and shook his head, saying: "It is unspeakable, unspeakable."

Seeing that the old Taoist priest was unwilling to speak but still had some hope, Li Muhua asked anxiously, "Old Immortal, just tell me--"

This time the old Taoist priest did not interrupt, but Xu Yan patted him on the back of his head.

"You are so disrespectful! The old immortal didn't say anything, so there must be a reason for it. What are you doing?"

As she spoke, she looked at her second son with some worry, and then said arrogantly: "Qinghua, just feel free to throw the ball boldly. If you don't win, mom will buy you another one. Today, our whole family must win the ball, so don't worry!"

Seeing the old Taoist's attitude towards Li Qinghua, and seeing that he had never been able to hit the target, Xu Yan felt a sense of foreboding in his heart.

Aihua Muhua Yujie was delighted when she heard her mother say that. It was over! As long as they were willing to spend money, Qinghua Investment would be a matter of minutes!

It would be great if the whole family could make a shot now!

Li Haifu looked helpless. He really didn't expect his wife to be so stupid that she could say such words.

Can't you wait until Qinghua finishes the investment? Why don't you avoid talking to others when you say this? People are still watching and listening here!

But the old Taoist priest seemed not to have heard Xu Yan's words. He still looked at everyone with a smile, looking like an otherworldly sage.

Li Qinghua then smiled and nodded, then quickly turned around, squinting his eyes and trying hard to aim.

"Dang~"

"Ding Dong~"

……

After failing many times, Li Qinghua could not help but grit his teeth, his eyes widening like bells.

The Li family members all watched in silence, their faces gloomy, feeling increasingly ominous in their hearts.

The old Taoist priest's face remained calm, as if all this was within his expectations.

"Ding Dong~"

With the sound of the last copper coin falling to the ground, Li Qinghua could only turn around helplessly.

Before he could speak, Xu Yan comforted him:

"It's ok, Qinghua. It's normal that you didn't hit the target after just a few chances. Have you forgotten? That year, there was a young man who lost four or five dollars and was so angry that he didn't hit the target. You guys secretly laughed at him for a long time."

"Mom will buy it for you again. I don't believe you will fail again."

Having said that, Xu Yan turned and walked towards the exchange place for the Yansheng coins.

Li Muhua glanced at the old Taoist priest's half-smile and felt unhappy. The atmosphere at home was so depressing, but he was still smiling. Was he just here to enjoy the show?

After rolling his eyes again, Li Muhua came up with words that would both disgust the old Taoist priest and comfort his second brother.

Thinking of this, Li Muhua walked up to him carelessly, looking like a little adult, and raised his hand to pat Li Qinghua on the shoulder.

"If you ask me, this is just for fun. It's no big deal if you don't win, brother. If you really flip a coin, it can determine a person's fortune."

"Then we should build a bigger clock."

As Li Muhua spoke, he stretched out his arms and gestured, which looked quite funny.

"If it's so big that even a blind man can throw it in, how can there still be miserable people and poor people in this world?"

"So in my opinion, this money-giving eye is either completely useless, or the Taoist priests in this temple are not only evil-minded but also narrow-minded. They don't want everyone to live a happy and prosperous life, so they made this money-giving eye as narrow-minded as their own."

As he spoke, Li Muhua looked disdainfully at the old Taoist priest. Since Xu Yan was not there at the moment, no one could stop him.

A hint of surprise flashed across the old Taoist's face when he heard Li Muhua's words. He really didn't expect that Li Muhua, at such a young age, could be so sharp and direct and say such well-reasoned words.

His expression changed slightly, and the old Taoist priest returned to his calm and composed look just now.

"What you said is very clever, young layman. You seem to have some of Du Shaoling's ambitions. But when I look at your age, I feel ashamed!"

The old Taoist bowed again and continued:

"But Xuanmen is not a market town where you can gain something by losing something. It is not feasible to guarantee a smooth life and a steady source of wealth just by spending some money and throwing a coin."

"Everything depends on fate and sincerity. As long as you have half of your sincerity, there is no need to worry about the Supreme Dharma not working!"

"Infinite Heavenly Lord."

The old Taoist priest bowed again as he spoke.

Li Muhua was annoyed by the old Taoist's frequent Wuliang Tianzun, and immediately retorted: "What do you mean by illegal or ineffective?"

He pointed to the temple in front of him and said, "If this temple could really fulfill our wish, how could we enter it? They would have been surrounded by the ancient nobles long ago!"

"If you want to live the life you want and realize your dreams, you still have to rely on struggle, your own hands, and the barrel of a gun to kill the damned little nuclear weapon. Wishing is useless!"

"Infinite Heavenly Lord!"

Under Li Muhua's angry glare, the old Taoist bowed again.

"It is not wrong for you to say so. I even agree with you. As the saying goes, it is better to rely on yourself than on heaven or earth. But since you have such a clear understanding, why do you come to our temple to worship this clay statue?"

The old Taoist priest smiled lightly, wanting to get an answer from Li Muhua.

"I was——"

As Li Muhua spoke, his mind raced. He had already quarreled to this extent with the old Taoist priest, who was belittling the act of praying to the gods and Buddhas. So, Li Muhua could no longer say that he was here to fulfill a vow or to repay the favor of saving his life.

How embarrassing would that be?

Unfortunately, he didn't have time to come up with an answer. Xu Yan, holding four copper coins in her hand, walked back here. As soon as she approached her, she heard the old Taoist priest ask Li Muhua why she came to worship the gods. She immediately answered:

"My youngest son is here to fulfill a vow. He fell into the water last time, and when he woke up he said that a god had saved him. He was wearing Taoist clothes—"

Before Xu Yan finished speaking, Li Fuhai signaled to Li Aihua, who immediately shouted, "Mom, why did you come back just now? My second brother is waiting anxiously."

As he spoke, Li Aihua snatched the copper coin from Xu Yan and handed it to Li Qinghua.

"This kid!"

Xu Yan smiled awkwardly, then looked at the old Taoist priest and said, "Old Immortal, my youngest son was really lucky to have the Immortal Lord's blessing last time—"

"Mom~"

Li Muhua interrupted again.

The old Taoist priest still had a smile that showed he saw through the world, but in Li Muhua's view at this moment, there was a hint of mockery in that smile.

The old Taoist priest ignored Li Muhua's angry glare, but lowered his head slightly, frowned and began to calculate.

After a moment, he relaxed his brows, his eyes full of surprise.

"Infinite Heavenly Lord!"

"I have understood that this young layman was born under the star of life and has good karma. He is destined to be a cultivator. Therefore, he will be protected by the six gods when he encounters danger. This is as it should be, as it should be!"

When he looked up again, the old Taoist priest's face was full of smiles, and he looked at Li Muhua carefully, as if he was looking at a rare treasure.
