Damn it, it's not like I don't know what you do, and you're still putting on this act in front of me. You want to be pretentious, right? I'm better at it than you. Lin Wanrong snorted a few times, but his face was confused. He looked at Zhao Kangning suspiciously and said, "Oh, Little Prince is talking to me? Could it be that Little Prince knows me in the past? This is such an honor. "
Zhao Kangning said with a smile, "Even if I didn't know you in the past, I'm afraid everyone knows you today. Lin San, look at your skill, it's really extraordinary. If I have time in the future, Little Prince would like to have a good chat with you. "
"Thank you, Little Prince, for your favor. Little Prince is the grandson of a prince, the dragon of the country. You take care of tens of thousands of chickens every day and work extremely hard. Lin San is just a commoner, so how would I dare to chat with you?" Lin Wanrong said with a chuckle.
Zhao Kangning naturally did not know the meaning behind his words. He nodded slightly and waved his hand. An attendant brought over a painting scroll. He took it and said with a smile, "Sir Luo, in today's couplet competition, I lost. This is Mr. Wen Zhang's' Wind and Snow to Return 'that I obtained many years ago. Today, I will give it to Sir Luo as a reward."
Lomin hurriedly cupped his fists and said, "I don't dare, I don't dare. Today's couplet competition is between Lin San and Mr. Shen. It has nothing to do with me. I did not do anything, so how can I accept the reward?"
Zhao Kangning nodded and said with a smile, "Since Little Prince has said it, I will naturally keep my word. Lin San, I will give this' Wind and Snow to Return 'to you. "
Of course he had to earn money. Lin Wanrong took the painting scroll and said with a smile, "Thank you, Little Prince, for your good painting. It's just that I am a vulgar person and do not know how to appreciate good paintings. Since Little Prince is so generous, I do not dare to keep it for myself. How about this, today is the old lady's birthday. I will give this' Wind and Snow to the old lady as a birthday gift. "
The crowd let out a cry of surprise. Lin San's move was extremely beautiful. He was just a small servant, how could he be worthy of the little prince's painting? Now that he had given it to the Old Taitai, it was beneficial to both him and the Old Taitai. He could take care of both sides.
The old lady was also a knowledgeable person. She smiled and said, "Little Brother Lin is too polite. How can I accept this?"
Lin San sternly said, "Old man, this is what you deserve. Today, Brother Shen and I are playing with this couplet for fun, but also to congratulate you on your birthday. You are blessed with a flood of good fortune. It is only right and proper for a good painting to be gifted to you. "
Luo Ning smiled sweetly and said, "Grandma, this is Big Brother Lin's kind intentions. Please accept it."
The old lady was so happy that she couldn't close her mouth. She smiled and said, "In that case, I won't stand on ceremony."
The old lady told someone to accept the famous painting. The atmosphere in the hall instantly became lively. Today, Ning Wangye had brought people to congratulate him and Lin San had defeated the king of couplets, Shen Ban Shan. The scholars of the south were really happy.
During the banquet, everyone drank a few cups of wine. Zhao Kangning saw that everyone was in high spirits and said, "Since it is so lively today, little prince will also join in the fun. I have a few acrobats with me. Why don't I invite them to perform a few tricks to amuse everyone. What does Luo Daren think? "
Lomin saw that he wasn't proposing a competition and her heart instantly relaxed. She said with a smile, "This lowly official cannot thank little prince enough for being so polite."
Zhao Kangning waved his hand and a few acrobats from Jianghu came out. They set up a battle in the courtyard. Some jumped rope, some walked on the tightrope. For a moment, there were endless shouts and cheers. The scene was very lively. The old lady was naturally happy to see it. Even Luo Ning was watching with great interest.
Lin Wanrong secretly nodded. This Zhao Kangning obviously came prepared. Not only did he bring the king of couplets, Shen Ban Shan, he even prepared a lot of acrobats from Jianghu. His intention to win over Lomin was very obvious. He didn't know what Luo was thinking.
Zhao Kangning saw that everyone was engrossed in watching and was very satisfied. He waved his hand again and the acrobats and others retreated. An old Taoist with fluttering white beard walked in from outside the door. He bowed to Old Madam Luo and said, "I am Xuan Xuanzi from Free Cloud Temple. I wish Old Madam happiness and longevity."
The old lady hurriedly smiled and said, "Immortal, please rise."
Zhao Kangning stood up and introduced, "Old Madam, this Taoist Xuan Xuanzi is very powerful and famous. Today, I specially invited him to do a Dharma Practice to celebrate Old Madam's birthday."
Xuan Xuanzi's beard and hair were all white. He looked very sage-like. Lin Wanrong thought, "Damn, he can be an immortal just by dyeing his hair and beard? Damn, it's so easy to earn incense money. "
The old lady was also a devout person. Seeing such a dignified Taoist come to celebrate her birthday, she hurriedly served the birthday cakes. Xuan Xuanzi said, "Today is Old Madam's birthday. I have nothing to offer, so I will do a Dharma Practice to make friends with all of you."
He asked for a bowl of water and found three square wooden chopsticks of the same length. He dipped the water in the square of the chopsticks and in the middle of the chopsticks. Then he put the three chopsticks side by side and said with a smile, "Please look carefully."
He took the bowl of water and slowly inserted the three chopsticks into the cup under everyone's gaze.
The three chopsticks were a little crooked. Xuan Xuanzi quickly circled around the cup a few times and quickly said, "Taishang Laojun, Taoist Masters of Three Pure Ones, urgent Ruyi Order, support —"
Strangely enough, the three chopsticks stood side by side and stood straight up.
The chopsticks stood up in the water, which was an auspicious sign. The hall was suddenly buzzing. This Xuan Xuanzi was indeed an immortal master, and his magic power was extraordinary.
The old lady said excitedly, "Immortal Master, please sit down. Someone, come and offer incense to the immortal master."
Xuan Xuanzi stroked his long beard and smiled, looking like an immortal who had achieved the Dao.
Lin Wanrong burst into laughter. 'F * ck, this Immortal Teacher is even better at acting cool than me. What dogsh * t Immortal Technique and Divine Skill? Can't you show me some high technical content? I've stopped doing this since I was ten years old.'
Seeing that he didn't respect the immortal master, the Grand Mistress glanced at him and whispered, "What are you laughing at? Be careful, the immortal master will punish you if he hears you."
"Alas, this is how feudal superstition comes about. Immortal master? Immortal master my ass. If he is an immortal master, I am the Taishang Laojun." Lin Wanrong laughed until his stomach hurt, but he didn't expose her because he was moral.
Zhao Kangning was smiling. Suddenly, he saw Lin San's strange face and the contempt in his eyes. He couldn't help but snort and said with a smile, "Lin San, do you have any objection to the immortal master's Dharma Practice?"
To be honest, Lin Wanrong's trick of washing his hands in the oil pan was the same as this chopsticks standing in the water. They were all tricks. He and Xuan Xuanzi could be said to be kindred spirits. They all relied on this to make a living. It was moral to not expose others' shortcomings when traveling in Jianghu.
"This, very good, very good," Lin Wanrong said with a smile, but there was no respect on his face. They were all in the same profession. It was fine if he didn't expose them, but no one could cheat the other.
Xuan Xuanzi saw that Lin San was in green clothes and a small hat. It turned out that he was a servant. He shook his horsetail whisk and said, "You are ignorant. How can you blaspheme the Three Pure Daoist Masters?"
Luo Ning saw that the immortal master seemed to be prejudiced against Lin San. She hurriedly walked to Lin Wanrong and said, "Brother Lin, this immortal master might have some supernatural power. Don't offend him easily. Be careful that he will cast spells to harm you."
"Well, this girl is nice to me. My care for her is not in vain." Lin Wanrong said with a smile, "It's okay. He is Immortal Xuan Xuanzi, and I am Immortal Master Lin San. We are in the same temple. No one is in the way of the other."
Luo Ning covered her lips and chuckled. "Brother Lin, I don't know which words are true and which are false."
The Grand Mistress listened to their conversation. She coughed softly and said, "Lin San, the young prince is looking at you."
Luo Ning was shocked. She looked up and saw that the young prince, Zhao Kangning, was looking at her with a smile.
Zhao Kangning winked at Immortal Master Xuan Xuanzi. Xuan Xuanzi looked at Lin Wanrong and said, "Young donor, do you have any doubts about the Three Pure Daoist Masters? Let me give you a piece of advice. With your cultivation, you'd rather doubt yourself than doubt the Daoist Masters. "
Lin Wanrong raised his eyebrows. "Damn it, I'm thinking about you, but your master provoked you to come to me?" Lin Wanrong snorted and said a few words to Luo Ning.
Luo Ning asked in confusion, "Brother Lin, what do you want the brine for?"
Lin Wanrong laughed and said, "Nothing, I'll pretend to be an immortal master. Ask Luoyuan to find a tofu house and prepare some brine. You'll know the rest later. "
Luo Ning left with doubts. Lin Wanrong glanced at Xuan Xuanzi and said with a smile, "Immortal master, are you talking to me?"
Xuan Xuanzi waved his horsetail whisk and said, "Yes."
Lin Wanrong shook his head. "Why? I wanted to avoid you, but I didn't expect that you, a fake immortal master, would be provoked by the young prince and deliberately look for trouble with me." Lin Wanrong stepped forward and said, "I'm just a lowly servant. Naturally, I respect the Three Pristine Daoist immensely. I'm even willing to submit to you, Daoist."
Immortal Master Xuan Xuanzi smiled proudly and touched his long beard habitually with his right hand. Lin Wanrong continued, "Immortal master, is it because of your magical power that I can stand chopsticks in the water?"
Xuan Xuanzi nodded and said, "I've been practicing hard since I was a child. After more than 60 years, I was enlightened by Taishang Laojun several times in my dreams. I'm ashamed, I'm ashamed. "
'Bluffing and acting cool, I despise you.' Lin Wanrong wanted to let him go, but this old man directly made things difficult for him under Zhao Kangning's instruction, so he had to show his true abilities.
"You've been practicing for more than 60 years to have such power. Immortal master, you're really powerful!" Lin Wanrong raised his thumb and said with a smile.
The old Taoist smiled proudly, but he heard the servant say, "I've been practicing hard for about 15 minutes. Today, I'd like to try this immortal method of standing chopsticks in the water."
As soon as Lin Wanrong said this, everyone in the hall was shocked. They had seen the immortal master's power just now. Wasn't Lin San courting death? The Grand Mistress looked anxious and stamped her feet. "You're always so reckless."
Immortal Master Xuan Xuanzi's expression changed. Lin Wanrong smiled and took three clean square wooden chopsticks. He nodded to everyone and said, "Please look carefully."
