Chapter 1642: A Bucket of Pearls for You

There is a saying in the secular world, "If you learn literature and martial arts, you will become an emperor." The situation in the world of cultivation is the same. The human race is better. If you succeed in cultivation, you can become an immortal. If you have the protection of a master, you can become a free immortal.

But the management of goblins in heaven is countless times stricter.

People can become happy immortals, and monsters want to become happy demons, but heaven cannot tolerate them. Anyone who disobeys orders will be instantly destroyed.

Not to mention little demons like Li Lin, how about those demon sages in Journey to the West who have the power to reach heaven and earth? Finally, a few more were able to be saved.

If you don't pursue ultimate freedom, actually joining the system is not a bad thing. At least you won't have to worry about your life in the future, and you can ask the Lord of Heaven for help if you need help.

"You said before that the original Qiantang River Water Lord was killed by a dragon, and now there is a vacancy here. Do you want to be the Qiantang River Lord?" Jiang Hao asked.

Li Lin smiled and said, "I do have this idea. I was born here and practiced here for fifteen hundred years. I understand the situation here and the cave is also here. Naturally, I want to stay, but I don't know if Heaven will agree. "

"You just said that a walking dragon killed the original Qiantang Shuijun. Could it be that the dragon was very powerful? Now that you have turned into a golden dragon, have you become more powerful?" Jiang Hao asked.

"That's not the case, sir." Li Lin said.

"Speaking of which, I turned into a dragon this time. It was a coincidence that I turned into a golden dragon only because of Mr. Jinsou Yu's words. The strength is still only three tribulations. Of course, there are advantages. That is, in the future, I will practice as a golden dragon and my speed will definitely be faster than that of the golden carp. many."

"And the golden dragon's defense and attack capabilities are stronger than the golden carp."

Jiang Hao thought for a while and said with a smile, "Besides, the golden dragon is even more bluffing. If you don't really do it, who knows what your cultivation level will be."

Li Lin also laughed.

Indeed.

I don’t know how many people this golden dragon’s true form can intimidate.

Jiang Hao continued to ask: "Tell me about what you know about the practice world, in more detail?"

Li Lin was a little surprised. Why did Mr. Jiang ask this question? Didn't he often walk around the world, or had he just come out of seclusion for hundreds of years?

This idea just flashed through my mind, and without too much entanglement, I told Jiang Hao about the situation in this world.

Through Li Lin's narration, Jiang Hao learned a lot about the situation.

this world,

There are high-ranking sects and great Taoist sects.

There are Buddhist temples, Zen monasteries, and eminent monks.

There are monsters, monsters, goblins and ghosts.

There is the City God's Yin Division and the Ten Halls of Yama.

Li Lin also told Jiang Hao that their demon clan was very loose and difficult to practice. They also had some small groups formed by themselves, such as several demon cultivators leading a group of little demons to occupy a mountain top, etc.

In some places, there are markets where monsters and monks can buy and sell exercises, magic weapons, spells, heavenly materials, earthly treasures, etc.

From Li Lin's mouth, Jiang Hao learned about a vivid world of immortals.

When talking about practice, Li Lin thought of something and asked, "Sir, are you practicing Taoist exercises?"

"nature."

Li Lin looked at Jiang Hao hopefully.

"I was in Fangshi before and spent a lot of money to buy an article on cultivation techniques. I planned to practice it if I succeeded in overcoming the tribulation this time. However, there were many things that I didn't understand. Some terms I hope you can explain to me."

Jiang Hao knows that some Taoist techniques are very difficult to pronounce, and some proper nouns are extremely difficult to understand for people who are not deeply involved in Taoism. The monsters do not have a systematic inheritance, so naturally they do not understand many things.

"Bring it to me and see."

Li Lin quickly brought a jade box from the back room and took out a yellowing book. Jiang Hao took it and saw the name of the exercise on the page.

"The Immortal Golden Elixir".

"It is said that if you look back at the ancient times, your nature is in harmony with nature, tortoises, snakes, dragons and tigers, there are flying chongs in every generation, the ancient road is far away from Yao, the golden elixir is broken, the holy religion is late, Yi Yudi, the sect has evolved, the bones are carved and whips are thought, and the incense is floated. The world shines brightly."

There are not many words in the exercise, only five or six thousand words in total. Jiang Hao browsed through it quickly and memorized it all. He thought that this exercise is not ordinary. It is indeed a profound method of cultivating immortals. No wonder Li Lin can't understand it. .

Even Jiang Hao needs to think carefully about some parts to understand them in correspondence with the Taoist classics in his mind.

"Let me explain it to you."

Jiang Hao told Li Lin from the beginning. Li Lin quickly calmed down, listened with all his heart, and remembered every word Jiang Hao said.

I don’t know how long it took, but after finishing the exercise, Li Lin woke up from listening to the lecture. Jiang Hao asked him: "Do you understand it this time?"

Li Lin looked delighted, "Listening to Mr.'s explanation, things that were previously puzzling suddenly became clear to me."

After saying that, he stood up, took a step back, and bowed to Jiang Hao.

Jiang Hao was stunned, "Why are you giving such a big gift?"

"Sir, you saved my life, helped me transform into a dragon, and now you have solved my doubts. I will remember this great kindness in my heart," Li Lin said.

Jiang Hao smiled faintly, "Well, you and I are indeed destined to be together, and I'm very happy to know a friend like you."

Li Lin stood up and sat down again and asked.

"Li Lin is very lucky to have met you. Otherwise, he wouldn't have rescued me by the Qiantang River. By the way, sir, what were you doing by the Qiantang River? Will my affairs delay your affairs?" Li Lin asked. .

Jiang Hao didn't hide it either.

"Money has been tight recently. I originally planned to go down to the river to see if I could find one or two sunken ships and search for some honeysuckle. But I didn't find any. I could exchange some pearls for money. I didn't expect to meet you. Instead, I gave up the only two taels I had on me. The money is spent, hehehe.”

Jiang Hao smiled softly.

When Li Lin heard this, he jumped up immediately.

"How can I make you worry about gold and silver? Please wait a moment and I will get it for you."

Not long after,

Li Lin took a few little demons and carried a few big boxes and asked the little demons to leave. Li Lin opened the box and immediately revealed the gold and silver inside. There was also a box of pearls in it. The small one was as big as the belly of the little finger, and the big one was enough. Longan is large and each particle is plump and round.

This box is not small. It is estimated that there are as many as a bushel of pearls in it.

Li Lin smiled and said, "To be honest, sir, if you go to salvage the relics of the sunken ship yourself, you may not be able to find anything. There are river gods in many rivers, and even if they don't, there are still demons who have become spirits to occupy them. They all know that gold and silver are useful. Gold and silver are also traded in the market, so there will naturally be people who collect them."

Jiang Haoxin said that it seemed that his thinking was too simple. These monsters were miserable. How could they not collect the gold and silver left behind?

No wonder Xiaoqing is short of money and wants to steal the imperial treasury.

"Sir, please accept these yellow and white things. If they are not enough, I will find a way to raise them." Li Lin said sincerely.

Jiang Hao could see that Li Lin was completely sincere.

Seeing how sincere he was, Jiang Hao accepted it unceremoniously. With a sweep of his sleeves, the few boxes of gold and silver and a box of pearls disappeared immediately.

Li Lin could feel that Mr. Jiang was not using a magic weapon, but that his hand was a magical power. Mr. Jiang was really mysterious if he could practice the magic of collecting objects to such a level.

He didn't know that Jiang Hao had used this technique so many times that he was able to do it so smoothly.

"It's probably going to be dawn at this moment, and I should go back. There are still things to do after dawn." Jiang Hao stood up and said goodbye, as he had to teach students during the day.

Li Lin couldn't stop him. He took out a jade token from his sleeves, handed it to Jiang Hao with both hands, and said, "Sir, this is my jade token. If you want to find me, sir, just use your magic power to give it to me." Summoned, sir, you can call me at any time if you have any orders. If you have time, you can also ask me to drink tea. "

Jiang Haoxin said, isn't this a modern version of a pager?

Jade brand income space.

Li Lin sent Jiang Hao out of the Qiantang River. When they arrived on the river, the white fish belly was already showing in the east, and it would be dawn soon.

Jiang Hao said goodbye, and Li Lin bowed to see him off.

With a gentle wave of his hand, an auspicious cloud appeared under his feet and flew away slowly.

Looking at the disappearing white clouds, Li Lin became more and more certain that Jiang Hao was the reincarnation of a master or a god.

Back at the academy, Jiang Hao flew in invisible from the window. At this time, there was movement outside, and other teachers started to get up and prepare for the day's work.

The ancients believed in going to bed early and getting up early, and the day would start when the sky lights up.

Jiang Hao took off his mask and put it away, then went out to the water table to wash his face. A passing teacher said hello to him, and Jiang Hao responded with a smile.

Students came over one after another, all a group of fourteen or fifteen-year-old boys, and the sound of reading could be heard loudly in the private school.

Xu Xian teaches the Analects of Confucius and Mencius from the Four Books and Five Classics.

He had passed the imperial examinations twice and passed the imperial examination in both cases. He had comprehensively interpreted the Four Books and Five Classics, teaching these white-bodied young men to be simple and unusual.

"Study "Mencius·Gaozi" today,

Gaozi said: "Food, color, and nature. Benevolence is internal, not external; righteousness is external, not internal."

Mencius said: "How can we say that benevolence is internal and righteousness is external?"

Said: "He is long and I am long, it does not mean that he is longer than me. Just as he is white and I am white, it is white from the outside, so it is called outside."

"What's the meaning of this paragraph? It's human nature to eat and drink men and women."

The classroom windows were open, and the spring breeze was refreshing, mixed with the fragrance of peach blossoms. It turned out that there was a peach tree in the distance. The wind blew through the fallen leaves and flying flowers, and the petals fell into the river. The boat rowed by, and the pink petals rippled on the water.

The main reason why Jiang Hao did not leave the academy was because in the movie, the first encounter between White Snake and Xu Xian was in the academy.

Who knows what fate is like, so he didn't leave.

After a day of classes, students went home from school in the evening. Jiang Hao came to the Qiantang County Yamen. He knew that at this time, his brother-in-law should still be on duty at the Yamen.

Li Gongfu was the head catcher, and all his government officials knew Xu Xian as his brother-in-law. Xu Xian said he was looking for Li Gongfu, and someone immediately took him to the head catcher's room. Li Gongfu was a moderate man no matter what, and had his own separate room.

"Brother-in-law." Jiang Hao called out when he saw Li Gongfu.

Li Gongfu was a little surprised, "Why are you here? Is there something wrong?"

"There is indeed something?" Jiang Hao said.

"Are you short of money?" He reached into his arms to touch the money bag.

"It's not that I'm short of money, but I need your help with something." Jiang Hao said, taking out a small cloth bag from his sleeve. It was heavy and made a soft clattering sound.

Li Gongfu took the bag, opened it and saw that his face was on one side. He immediately looked at the open door, walked over and closed the door, took another look at the contents of the bag, lowered his voice and looked at Jiang Hao and said seriously: "These things are yours Where did it come from?”

The reason why Li Gongfu was so nervous was because he saw that the bag was full of pearls, some big and some small, the small ones were as big as the belly of the little finger, and the big ones were as big as longans.

Although Li Gongfu is just a head catcher, he has some knowledge and knows that these things are valuable. A pearl as big as the belly of your little finger can be sold for several taels of silver, and those the size of a longan are even more impressive. One pearl can probably be sold for a few taels. Sold for hundreds or thousands of taels.

Hundreds to thousands of taels of silver, this is not a small number. As a head catcher, he can only earn more than a dozen taels of silver with a month's salary plus extra money.

How could Xu Xian take out these treasures? He might have committed a serious crime.

Seeing Li Gongfu's actions, Jiang Hao felt sweet in his heart. His sister Xu Jiaorong and brother-in-law Li Gongfu really loved Xu Xian. Li Gongfu felt something was wrong, and the first thing he thought of was how to protect him and not let outsiders know.

Before Jiang Hao came, he had already thought of a pretext.

"Brother-in-law, don't be so nervous. You know my temper. I will never commit crimes. In fact, this was given to me by others."

Jiang Hao decided to tell a big lie.

"Who gave it to you? Who is so generous? I'm afraid that Qian Donglai, the capital of Hangzhou, would not be willing to throw away so many pearls. How much is this bag worth?!" Li Gongfu said anxiously in a low voice.

"It's because I don't know the value and where to sell it, so I came to my brother-in-law." Jiang Hao said.

"Are you going to make me anxious to death? Tell me where it came from." Seeing that his brother-in-law was still careless, Li Gongfu was a little anxious and said sternly while holding the bag.

"It was given to me by a monster." Jiang Hao said.

"Monster?!"

Li Gongfu's eyes widened in shock.

The highest level of lying is nine truths and one lie.

In fact, he has gold and silver in his space, so he may not need to exchange these pearls. The reason he came here is to make sure that the money came from a source, at least to give an explanation to his sister and brother-in-law, otherwise he will not be able to explain it when he buys a house in the future.
