After listening to the System's voice.
Wang Mang was overjoyed.
He had finally succeeded in becoming a disciple!
Thinking of this, Wang Mang immediately kowtowed respectfully and said excitedly, "Thank you, Master!"
This was Wang Mang's first time becoming a disciple, but Wang Mang's respect for Patriarch Bodhi was undeniable.
He had accepted him as a disciple for whatever reason, as long as he could teach him skills.
In Wang Mang's eyes, this was the biggest reward.
In the Journey to the West, those who relied on connections had reached the peak.
Without a backer, it was really hard to survive. As for becoming a disciple of a Saint …
In Wang Mang's eyes, there was a possibility, but only if he could find a Saint!
Moreover, throughout the entire Journey to the West, there was no trace of a Saint.
Therefore, Wang Mang chose to settle for the next best thing, Bodhi, who had the highest possibility.
Fortunately, he had successfully become a disciple of Patriarch Bodhi, so he would have a backer in the future.
Thinking of this, Wang Mang was in a good mood. He heard Patriarch Bodhi slowly nod and say, "Find a seat in the first row."
"I don't have any rules under my tutelage. Disciple, you must remember not to betray your master!"
"Disciple will remember." Wang Mang hurriedly nodded respectfully.
His voice was like an olive fruit. Wang Mang immediately realized that something was wrong!
At this moment, the entire place suddenly fell silent.
After Wang Mang quietly glanced around, he discovered that quite a few of his fellow disciples in Daoist robes were looking at him with faces full of jealousy.
What the f * ck? It can't be, right? What's there to be jealous of?
As Wang Mang muttered in his heart, he inadvertently sat down in front of Patriarch Bodhi's futon.
After seeing Wang Mang sit down, Patriarch Bodhi continued speaking slowly, "The Dao of the Five Elements is divided into complementary Dao, like water and fire, like Yin and Yang …"
Alright!
Wang Mang admitted that he did not understand.
After all, he had never learned traditional Dao techniques.
Basically, all the abilities were directly injected into Wang Mang's mind by the system.
Wang Mang could indeed be said to be self-taught. Now that he was learning, he was naturally not used to it.
Of course, the most important thing was that the so-called Dao of the Five Elements did not attract Wang Mang that much.
Thus, Wang Mang naturally only took it as if it was true but actually not true. He simply didn't take in much of it.
In the blink of an eye.
Half a month passed.
In the past half a month.
Wang Mang could be said to be listless as he listened.
On this day, Patriarch Bodhi was still lecturing in the Dao Academy.
However, he had already seen Wang Mang, who was absent-minded and had long been lost in thought.
Regarding this, Patriarch Subhuti was also helpless. He could tell that Wang Mang was simply pretending to understand when he didn't, and didn't listen to anything.
Wang Mang did not seem to be interested in these simple and obvious Dao knowledge at all. This also made Patriarch Bodhi very tired.
He knew that it was impossible for Wang Mang to listen to him attentively unless he taught him some truly powerful skills.
However, this was clearly not the time. He did not intend to teach Wang Mang a powerful ability so early.
Of course, he still had to give him a beating!
"Wutian, did you listen to what I said?"
Wutian was the Dharma name that Patriarch Bodhi gave him. The meaning was that he hoped that Wang Mang would be enlightened and revere heaven and earth!
Of course, the reverence here referred to Dao! In other words, the Heavenly Dao!
To be honest, when Patriarch Bodhi gave him this Dao name, it scared Wang Mang.
Because, Wutian? Wutian?
This seemed to be too similar to the Wutian in the later chapters of Journey to the West!
After coming back to his senses, Wang Mang was stunned at first, then hurriedly nodded respectfully and said, "Master, this disciple has understood."
Patriarch Bodhi asked for no reason, "En, the Dao of Nature, what is the meaning?"
Hearing this, Wang Mang was once again stumped by the question. He was so embarrassed that he could not speak.
He was not listening at all. In the past, his master would not ask questions. This sudden question had indeed stumped Wang Mang.
How would he know what the meaning of the Dao of Nature was?
There were several levels of meaning here, and each level of strength had a different understanding.
Therefore, how would Wang Mang know the real answer!
"This … Master, the Dao of Nature is, is …"
Wang Mang muttered for a long time, but he still could not say an answer.
This also made many Daoists unable to help but laugh.
Obviously, these Daoists all knew that Wang Mang had been daydreaming these days.
To put it bluntly, he did not listen to the Patriarch's lecture at all.
This made these Daoists even more jealous.
After all, Wang Mang did not even listen to the lecture. How could he become a personal disciple?
After all, sitting next to Patriarch Bodhi was an unknown, which naturally meant that Patriarch Bodhi valued him.
This was also why they were very unwilling and even jealous.
"You are deeply inferior and unwilling to learn these simple and basic Dao meanings."
"It's up to you if you don't come to listen to my lectures in the future."
"Sit down!"
After saying this, Patriarch Bodhi continued his lecture.
As for Wang Mang, he sat down awkwardly.
At this moment, Patriarch Bodhi suddenly said to the Daoist beside him.
"Go and bring in the monkey outside to see me."
Hearing this, Wang Mang was instantly shocked.
Damn! It can't be, right?
Could it be that Brother Monkey is already here?
I've only been here for half a month, and the monkey is already here?
Just as Wang Mang was muttering in his heart.
Wang Mang saw the Patriarch's Daoist appear with a golden-haired monkey.
The monkey stood upright like a human and wore a jade robe. Its eyes were full of intelligence as it looked around curiously.
Suddenly, Patriarch Bodhi said, "Who's next? What are you doing here? "
Damn! Is this the same as a TV drama?
Just as Wang Mang was in shock.
He immediately noticed something unusual.
Sun Wukong looked at Patriarch Bodhi carefully and said nervously, "Patriarch, I'm here to learn Dao."
Hearing this, Patriarch Bodhi did not speak.
Seeing this, Brother Monkey panicked and hurriedly said, "Master, please accept me as your disciple."
After saying that, Monkey King was a little incoherent. He knelt on the ground and kept kowtowing. His head was banging loudly.
Unfortunately, no matter how much Brother Monkey kowtowed, Patriarch Bodhi on the futon narrowed his eyes as if he did not see it.
While kowtowing, Brother Monkey begged in a low voice, "Master, please accept me as your disciple!"
After a long while, Patriarch Bodhi nodded slowly and said, "Alright! You're a stone marquis who was born with no name and looks like a monkey. From now on, your Dharma name will be Sun Wukong! "
Hearing this, Sun Wukong was overjoyed and laughed maniacally.
"Ahaha! Master, accept me! I have a name! From now on, I'll be called Sun Wukong! "
