Meng Junliang looked at Qin Manyun. His eyes were simple and calm, with a wisdom that could see through everything.
He said calmly, "Look at those mortals. They work at sunrise and rest at sunset, just to live a hundred years in the mortal world. Immortal cultivators are high above, but they can live for thousands of years! They also want to know why they can't cultivate. Will you tell them? "
Qin Manyun's delicate body trembled, as if she had been hit in the head. She was stunned.
She already had an answer in her heart.
That was … qualification!
Some answers to questions could only be known after obtaining the qualification.
Take this group of mortals for example. If they went to seek Dao, those with superior qualifications could still join the sect. However, those with inferior qualifications would usually be dismissed with the word "not fated."
They would definitely ask why they were not fated. However, no one would tell them the answer.
Qin Manyun admitted that she would not answer such a boring question from a mortal.
She gritted her teeth and bowed to the scholar again. She said, "Senior, please tell me the answer!"
The scholar was silent for a moment. Then, he said, "The operation of the world has its own rules. I can only peek into one or two of them. As for the specific reasons, I'm afraid only those who set the rules would know."
He raised his head and looked at the sky. His eyes were still calm, and no one knew where he was looking.
"Those who set the rules?"
Qin Manyun's pupils shrank. The blood in her body flowed backward, and a gust of cold air rushed to the top of her head. She could not help but shiver.
Based on the story, could the so-called people who set the rules be the Heavenly Palace?!
Her mind went blank. She did not dare to think further.
Meng Junliang said, "If you want to know the reason, you can listen to the story after Journey to the West. If you are smart enough, you should be able to understand it."
"Thank you for your advice." Qin Manyun bowed deeply. She did not dare to disturb him anymore and left.
At this moment, the courtyard house under the night sky was exceptionally quiet.
In the entire courtyard house, only one room was lit.
Li Nianfan was writing and drawing on a piece of white paper. His expression was focused, as if he was designing something.
On the table in front of him, a carving knife, a bamboo stick, a pair of ox horns, and a few ox tendons were neatly arranged.
He was going to make a bow and arrow!
This idea had sprouted when he saw the cow that Emperor Luo had sent over.
He didn't know what breed this cow was, but its body was sturdy, far better than the average cow. Its horns were big enough, and its tendons were tough enough. It was truly a rare material. Li Nianfan was itching to try it out, and the idea of making a horn bow appeared in his mind.
The bamboo branch used was cut from the largest bamboo in the backyard. It was also a rare material.
The Ox Horn Bow was the pinnacle of archery in Li Nianfan's previous life. It was made from ox horns, bamboo wood, cow tendons, animal glue, and other materials after hundreds of processes. It was an extremely high test of skill.
However, the so-called difficulty was naturally not a problem for Li Nianfan.
"In the past, when I hunted by myself, not only did I have to rely on Big Black, sometimes I also had to rely on luck. Only in close combat would I have a chance. Why did I only think of making a bow now? How stupid." Li Nianfan could not help but shake his head as he thought to himself.
In the future, when he had a bow and arrow, it would be much more convenient to eat wild game.
Li Nianfan stopped writing, looked at the design in front of him, and nodded with satisfaction.
The design was done. Let's call it a day. Tomorrow, we will officially start the production!
He said to the Immortal Sword Jade in the middle of the room, "Light bulb, go out."
Immediately, the holy light around the Immortal Sword Jade quickly disappeared, and the room fell into darkness.
"The world of cultivation is so good. This Immortal Jade can not only be used as a light bulb, but it can also be controlled by voice. It's so convenient." Li Nianfan stretched and lay on the bed.
On a big tree not far away from the siheyuan, a Six-Tailed Spirit Fox was moving its four limbs and climbing to the top of the tree. It was looking at the siheyuan with its lively eyes, and from time to time, it would let out a 'Zhi Zhi Zhi' sound.
It jumped up and down, looking a little anxious, but also very cute.
Its pure white feathers glowed white under the moonlight.
"Creak."
The door of the courtyard slowly opened. Daji secretly poked her head out, and then walked out with light steps.
"Sister."
When the Six-Tailed Fox Spirit saw Daji, its face was filled with joy. Its small butt stuck out as it ran towards Daji.
"Sister, did that human bully you?" She couldn't wait to ask, her eyes filled with ferocity. Once her sister was bullied, it could justifiably kill that mortal.
Daji hugged the Six-Tailed Fox Spirit in her arms and rubbed it. "Master is very good to me. You must not have any bad thoughts about him. It's very dangerous."
Young Master Li's cultivation was extraordinary. The Six-Tailed Fox Spirit's cultivation was probably like a baby in front of him.
"Master?"
The Six-Tailed Fox Spirit widened its small eyes and said in disbelief, "Sister, you actually called him Master?!"
Her sister was proud and arrogant, a proud fox. She actually recognized that mortal as her Master?
Didn't she say that she was going to repay a debt of gratitude? Even if she married him, it would be better than acknowledging him as her Master, right?
She had no dignity at all!
Daji nodded seriously, and her face was filled with happiness. "Young Master Li is a Mighty Deity. He has done me a great favor. Recognizing him as my Master is the greatest blessing in my life."
"Sister, you, you, you …" The Six-Tailed Fox Spirit's mind went blank, and it was filled with question marks.
It hugged its head with its small paws, and it couldn't figure out why.
"Look, I brought you something good." Daji secretly took out an apple from her arms.
The Six-Tailed Fox Spirit was looking forward to it, but when it saw the apple, it was completely dumbfounded.
Just an apple?
This was considered something good?
It sniffed it with its nose. It was indeed very fragrant, but no matter how fragrant it was, it was still just an apple.
What was wrong with her sister? Why did she treat the apple as a treasure?
She couldn't understand this series of actions at all. Did she become stupid after transforming?
Could it be that Tianlei's injury had affected her intelligence?
Tears welled up in the Six-Tailed Fox Spirit's eyes. It choked and said, "Sister, I also brought you something good. Hurry and eat it."
A white demonic power surged from its body, and three different spiritual herbs appeared in front of it.
"Bang!"
Daji saw through the Six-Tailed Fox Spirit's thoughts. She flicked the Six-Tailed Fox Spirit's head and said, "Don't let your imagination run wild. Try this apple and you will know."
The Six-Tailed Fox Spirit rubbed its head pitifully, and looked at the apple in front of it suspiciously.
It was bright red, and it seemed to be emitting a red light. The shape was neat and round, and it looked very good.
Could it be that there was something special about this apple?
It opened its mouth and tried to take a bite.
"Kacha!"
The crisp sound was especially clear in the night.
The juice of the apple also shot out, and most of it flowed into the Six-Tailed Fox Spirit's mouth.
Eh?
The Six-Tailed Fox Spirit was stunned at first. Then, its small mouth moved slightly, and it chewed quickly.
