Cheng Yu had no choice but to follow Yao Na out.
The moment he appeared, everyone became lively again.
"Mr. Cheng, you are an immortal that can go to heaven and earth. There is nothing you can't do. My child admires you very much. I hope you can accept my son as your disciple!"
"Divine Doctor Cheng, I know you can cure any illness. Can you help me cure this old cold leg of mine?"
"Immortal Cheng, can you teach me a few immortal techniques? Like the Midas Touch or the kind where I can change anything I want." Hearing everyone's words, Cheng Yu shook his head and smiled bitterly. There were actually people looking for him to learn how to turn stone into gold. They really thought of themselves as an omnipotent immortal.
"Fellow villagers, please quieten down. Everyone, listen to me," Cheng Yu saw everyone was making a ruckus and shouting non-stop, so he spoke loudly. "Everyone, please be quiet.
As expected, the moment Cheng Yu spoke, everyone quietened down.
"I am very grateful to everyone for thinking so highly of me. However, I want to tell everyone that I am just a Daoist cultivator. I am not the immortal that you are talking about. I also don't know how to turn stone into gold, nor do I have the means to teach everyone such a method. If everyone wishes to become rich, it is impossible to rely on trickery. You still have to rely on your own hands to struggle.
In this world, there is no such thing as reaping without sowing. If you have such thoughts, you might as well work hard. Sooner or later, there will be a day when you succeed. You have only seen our ability to fly in the sky and burrow into the ground. However, our ability is not something that you can casually obtain. A lot of people have put in effort that you have never thought of. Even they have to work so hard. What reason do you have to not work hard? "Cheng Yu said indifferently.
"What Immortal Cheng said is right. We are too greedy. We will definitely use our own hands to create our own wealth. Thank you for your teachings, Immortal Cheng!" Hearing Cheng Yu's words, those who wanted to learn how to turn stone into gold immediately felt ashamed. After speaking, they left the crowd.
"Immortal Cheng, we don't want to learn how to reap without sowing. I only hope that you can accept our children as your disciples!" When they saw some people leaving, the others who brought their children forward quickly said.
Cheng Yu walked to the side of the crowd and looked at all the children. He shook his head lightly, "Immortal cultivation is different from ordinary cultivation. What you need is root and aptitude. Not everyone can cultivate. Your children don't have such aptitude and aptitude. You'd better go back! "
"Immortal Cheng, you are an immortal. As long as you are willing, why can't they?" Everyone's faces were filled with disappointment, but someone didn't give up and said.
"I told you, I'm just a Daoist who cultivates the Immortal Dao, not some deity. I don't have omnipotent abilities. If I were really that powerful, wouldn't my in-laws be immortals as well? If you don't have the aptitude to cultivate the Immortal Dao, even if a real deity comes, there's nothing they can do Cheng Yu shook his head.
"Immortal Cheng, is there really no other way?" someone asked, unwilling to give up.
"Actually, the path of cultivation is not as good as you think. All the beauty you see is because you don't understand it. If they really set foot on this path one day, perhaps they would understand how dangerous this path was. They would either be killed by others or killed by others.
Be an ordinary person, study hard, and achieve great things in the future. Get a wife and have children. You can also enjoy the happiness of having a house full of grandchildren. Why bother pursuing this illusory thing?
Cultivating the Immortal Dao is fighting against the heavens. How many people in the world can fight against the heavens? You only see those people flying around every day, but you don't know that these people have worked hard for hundreds of years to achieve such achievements.
Other than having a longer lifespan than you and being able to fly, they don't have any other abilities. You may only have one child. If you really let them set foot on this path, it will be very difficult for you to see them again.
Even if they have this kind of aptitude, they have to stay in their world and continuously cultivate the Immortal Dao. They have no time to take care of you, nor do they have the money to take care of you when you are old. Perhaps when you are old and gray, they will not be able to enter the path of cultivation, and you will have no one to rely on. "Cheng Yu said patiently.
Ever since the great changes in the secular world, people in the secular world yearned to become cultivators that could go to heaven and earth. This was not what Cheng Yu wanted to see. If he met someone with a good aptitude, he might accept it.
But if they did not have the talent, then they would be harming themselves and others. They were destined to not have high achievements and would not be able to escape the reincarnation of fate. Why would they waste their time? In the end, they would not even be able to support their own parents. That would be truly lamentable. This was the portrayal of his previous life. He also did not wish for these people to step on this path and regret for the rest of their lives.
"But Mr. Cheng, you are only 20 years old. Didn't you already have a lifetime's worth of abilities? Not only are you able to fly, you also have miraculous medical skills." Some people said unwillingly.
"That's why I said that cultivating the Immortal Dao is about talent. It's just like how some children are obviously not suited to study, but their parents still want them to get 100 marks every time they take an exam. Do you think that is possible?
The reason why I have my current strength at such a young age, other than being suitable to cultivate the Immortal Dao, is because I have obtained a lot of opportunities. There are millions of cultivators in the world, but not every cultivator has such opportunities. It's just like how children go to college. There are millions of children who go to school, but not everyone can get into the Capital University.
Your children do not have the aptitude to cultivate, and the chances of them entering the sect is less than 1%. In other words, there is a 99% chance that they will not be able to step onto the path of cultivation by the time they get old. Do you dare to gamble with your children's fate? "Cheng Yu said.
Hearing Cheng Yu's words, everyone went silent. Did they dare to gamble with their children's fate? If they succeeded, they would naturally have a beautiful future. But if they lost, they would really be like what Cheng Yu said, old and helpless.
"My son-in-law is right. Don't be so stubborn. If it was so easy to be an immortal, wouldn't there be immortals everywhere in the world? He can't even help me, his mother-in-law, so why are you making things difficult for my son-in-law? The most important thing is that in the future, if the child can't become an immortal, then wouldn't it be a waste of dozens of years, and in the end, they would end up with nothing? At that time, how are they going to support themselves? How are they going to support you? "Mother Yao stood at the side and advised.
