It wasn't meal time right now, so there were few customers in the restaurant. Lou Xiaoyi saw that the waiter was idle, so he called him over for some questions.
Actually, there was no need for him to go through so much trouble. All he needed to do was sweep his divine sense over the buildings in Xuanyuan City and their general functions. However, this would lose the joy of entering the mortal world, and it would be unavoidably awkward to hear anything that wasn't suitable for children.
Morality was a kind of invisible restraint. It was in every detail of a cultivator's life. If you could still maintain a certain bottom line in a situation where no one was paying attention, and still treat respect for others as an instinct, then you were basically moral.
"There are many shops on this street. I'll list them one by one for you.
Huaji Clothing Shop, Snow Mountain Ceramics, Da Li Ironware, Song Yun Study Room … "
He looked at the customer's expression and saw that he didn't show any interest, so he continued.
"Lianmu Family Shop, Fugui Silk Forge, Yinchang Bill Shop, Jinli Pawn …"
Lou Xiaoyi smiled but didn't say anything. The waiter then changed a few more shops.
"West House Talisman Shop, Fourth Ring Magic Weapon, Longevity Pill Room, Little White Dao Hall …"
The waiter discovered that this customer seemed to be very picky? He didn't seem to be very interested in the places he reported? As a qualified food worker, he naturally wouldn't recommend other restaurants, but he still had something he was good at …
"Spring Arrival Restaurant, Rouge Pavilion, Fragrance of the Four Seasons, Night Song …"
Finally seeing the customer smile, the waiter felt disdain in his heart. After pretending for so long, wasn't it all for this?
Lou Xiaoyi smiled. Hearing these very lively names made him feel very close. At least this proved that he was still alive and had flesh and blood! What he was afraid of was that when his cultivation reached a certain level, he wouldn't feel any ripples in his heart when he heard these dishonest practices. That would be the tragedy of life.
Right now, yes, he was still barely normal.
After paying for the wine, he strolled out under the waiter's still enthusiastic and disdainful gaze. As expected, he walked towards the gathering place of the wind and moon!
"Pah! What the hell!" The waiter fiercely spat. It wasn't that he hated this kind of behavior, but in this kind of place, the money he painstakingly saved for half a year might not even be enough to spend once.
Lou Xiaoyi began his carefree mortal life. Of course, it was intermittent.
Every two years, he would secretly make a trip to the outer space. He wouldn't go far, but he would do a thorough search of the airspace in front of the Fifth Ring's tracks every year! With his terrifying speed, the range he could fly to in a year was much greater than the others!
A year of travel would basically cover the distance of several years on the Fifth Ring's route! This cycle repeated. He finally understood that it was useless to run too far away, because he didn't know when the astronomical phenomena would change!
It would be good if it could be guaranteed for a few years. Once every three years, it could ensure the safety of the route for the next few years within a controllable range.
This was the extremely close space of the Fifth Ring. No one dared to cause trouble here, and he could fly as he pleased.
But he had also been hunted down. For example,
"Sh * t Lou! Stop right there! Don't run if you have the ability! Didn't he boast that he was invincible among Half Immortals? I've been pissed off at you for a long time. Come at me if you have the guts. Let's fight to the death! "
Lou Xiaoyi turned a deaf ear and ran as fast as he could. He was like a different person from the legendary ruthless and unparalleled Escort Lou!
He knew why this person went crazy. He must have been forced into a marriage by his family. Then, he found an opportunity to patrol the airspace like him, searching for any astronomical phenomena that might appear.
It was best to ignore such a lunatic!
This was just a coincidence. The two of them had different patterns of patrolling the airspace, so it would be difficult for them to meet again. They were both people with a strong sense of responsibility and trusted each other. So even if everyone else left, this law idiot wouldn't leave.
With friends like this, there was nothing to worry about.
Everyone had their own patterns of patrolling, so there was no need to stagger. Different people would have different interpretations of the same astronomical phenomenon. It was better to have some repetitions. Just treat it as a late-night car racing.
In the remaining two years, Lou Xiaoyi slowly sorted out his achievements in swordsmanship. This was his blood, sweat, and tears. But in this big family, there was nothing he couldn't share. Just like how Xuanyuan didn't hide anything from him when he first came to the Dome, he wouldn't hide anything from those who came after him.
Cultivation actually didn't have much to do with secret manuals. It was completely different from the understanding of mortals. This was a profession that required one to comprehend on their own. In a cultivation world like the Fifth Ring, there were many basic techniques. Everyone could come in contact with them, but there were very few who could truly walk down the path. It was all up to the individual, not someone who fell into a treasure trove and learned the legacy of a senior.
In terms of legacy, what legacy was more systematic, comprehensive, and profound than Xuanyuan's sect?
The true legacy didn't lie in those so-called secret manuals! It was a spirit, a tradition, and a philosophy! It lay in the insights, travels, and gossip of countless Swordsman seniors in this system. Those were the most important things.
In Lou Xiaoyi's growth, what he liked to read the most were the insights left behind by these seniors. Interesting experiences, inexplicable feelings, and things that struck deep into one's heart.
Now it was his turn to leave these things behind!
This was very important! Because in the future, he wouldn't have the time to sort out these things systematically. He might as well do it now. It was also a review of his three thousand years of swordsmanship.
When he set up the Dao tablet, some things related to the truth of the Heavenly Dao would be unspeakable. If someone really succeeded in becoming a celestial, then it would be even more unspeakable. This was the rule of the cultivation world. He personally felt that such a rule was meaningful. It could prevent certain forces from growing too big forever and crush the rising forces.
What he did in the Dome, Qing Xuan must have done in the Three Pure Ones. In fact, it was because they had a vague premonition of their own future!
But She She and Yan Mu didn't have such awareness. This actually represented something, something that people didn't want to think about … You can't persuade them!
In the remaining time, he put his energy into all kinds of whimsical small productions. Useful ones, useless ones, fun ones …
He didn't have any plans for this. No one could have a specific plan for something that might happen tens of millions of years in the future. Even immortals couldn't. It was enough to just have a game mentality.
Therefore, compared to his predecessor, he was a little unreliable as a craftsman deacon. No one bothered him. As long as the mayor of Xuanyuan didn't have any opinions, others couldn't be bothered to have any opinions.
They were just a bunch of losers whose Dao path was broken. Of course, they wouldn't be so diligent in handling official affairs.
It was human nature!
