The Great Way to Truth, Starting from Jiazi Laodao

Chapter 197: Traveling back to the mortal world, a boy wets the bed for six years (Part )

In the spring of March, the grass grows and orioles fly.

Four figures slowly walked out of the lush Floating Cloud Mountain.

A majestic and magical deer was carrying a white-haired old Taoist priest, and a nine-year-old Taoist boy was walking in front, leading the deer. A swallow was standing on the deer's shoulder, chirping in a clear and crisp voice.

The sun shines down on their bodies, lengthening their shadows. With the green mountains behind them as a backdrop, the picture looks leisurely and beautiful.

On the way down the mountain, Xuanming placed the Taoist scripture on his knees and his eyes fell on Li Zizai who was walking.

Three days ago, this boy successfully broke through and built a superior foundation for the Tao. Although he did not become a Hun Yuan, he reached the ninth level.

It's a proud performance!

The higher the foundation of Taoism, the stronger the desire.

Li Zizai was wrapped in desire all day long.

Fortunately, he is still young and will not be troubled by lust. His desires are relatively simple and his mind is relatively pure, mostly concerned with food, drink, fun and wealth, so the difficulty of the desire level is reduced.

This is also one of the reasons why many spiritual practices like to train their disciples from a young age and let them build their foundation during their childhood.

In addition, Li Zizai has strong self-control and was taught the "Purifying Heart Art", so Xuanming doesn't have to worry about this kid.

The clattering sounds echoed on the narrow path, and as the spirit deer moved forward, the appearance of the group gradually changed.

When they arrived at the foot of Floating Cloud Mountain, it was no longer impressive. The sacred deer had become a donkey, Xuanming was slovenly, and Li Zizai's Taoist robe had several patches on it.

We walked onto the official road, going in the opposite direction of the pilgrims. In the distance, smoke rose from the villages, and farmers were weeding in the fields on both sides. Occasionally, a horse-drawn carriage passed by, leaving behind ruts of varying depths.

Xuanming was doing two things at once, reading the sutra and appreciating the scenery at the same time. The donkey, Yan Zi and Li Zizai all moved in unison, poking their heads out and looking around.

They have the mentality of children and get excited about everything they see. The scenery is secondary. The main thing is that they don’t have to stay in the mountains.

Knowing this, Xuanming did not stop them and allowed them to express themselves freely. Their nature should be expressed reasonably.

Sometimes, under the influence of the atmosphere and emotions, he felt that his mentality had become younger.

Fuyun County is bustling with people, the streets are crowded with vendors, carriages and horses are trundling by, and it is full of the flavor of life.

When Master Xuanming and his disciple passed through the city gate, the last trace of otherworldly aura on their bodies disappeared, and they completely walked from the otherworldly world into the mortal world.

They ordered two bowls of wonton soup at the breakfast stall, and the master and his apprentice each added five bowls of soup. After eating ten plates of side dishes, they immediately left when the stall owner lost his patience and was about to explode.

After eating half full, Xuanming took Li Zizai to visit the morning market first. Fuyun County has changed a lot in recent years. The morning market has become several times larger and several times more lively.

There are rich and colorful food stalls, clay figurine stalls, fruit stalls, vegetable stalls, fish stalls, toy stalls, jewelry stalls, rouge stalls, tea stalls, tofu stalls, etc.

The food stalls alone brought together delicacies from all the counties in Fengyang County, and even delicacies from outside the county: rice pudding, roasted meat, dried meat, sugared snap peas, crystal soap, yellow cold dumplings, chicken head glutinous rice, fine-grained steamed buns...

The master and his disciple took their donkey and bird for a walk, walked through the streets and alleys, and ate from the beach to the end of the stall. Xuanming needed no introduction. Li Zizai, because of his strong innate origin, had been able to eat since he was a child. After practicing, he became a famous glutton in Qiuzhen Temple.

After eating and drinking, the master and disciple had run out of money.

Xuanming took Li Zizai to Li's residence, planning to get two meals and stay overnight. They would leave the next day. Xuanming also wanted to let his disciple meet his parents to ease their homesickness.

The Li Mansion is located in East City. It is a medium-sized house with two courtyards covering an area of two acres. It is inconspicuous on Caiyuan Street, where most of the houses cover an area of five or ten acres, but no one dares to underestimate it.

This is the home of the richest man.

Smaller homes are considered to be more modest and simple.

All the wealthy families on the street looked up to it.

Standing in front of the door of Li's mansion, Li Zizai went to knock on the door. The sound of footsteps was heard, the door was opened, and a servant poked his head out.

Seeing Li Zizai, he said, "If you want to ask for food, please go to the corner gate. This is the side gate for the owner to enter and exit."

Li Zizai: "Agui, open your eyes and look carefully, who am I...this young master?"

As he said this, he moved his face closer.

Hearing this, the servant opened his eyes and looked carefully.

---

This outline!
This big face plate!
This steamed bun made of yeast!
This big, fat guy-like figure!
It looks familiar.

The next moment, his pupils trembled, he was stunned, and said in surprise: "Young... Young Master!"

"OK!"

Li Zizai raised his head and chest, his belly bulging.

Agui immediately opened the door and cordially invited Li Zizai and Xuanming into the house.

While calling out "Young Master, are you not accepted as a disciple by the old immortal on the mountain?"

He didn't say everything, but everyone understood. Li Ziyi explained with pride, "Haven't you heard of the game world? This time I came down the mountain with my master, to take a trip to this great world, slay demons and monsters, write legends, and become a god-like figure in the storybook.

Since this is a game, we have to disguise ourselves and keep a low profile. If we are easily discovered, how can we still have fun?"

Ah Gui suddenly realized and beamed with joy: "Oh my, my young master, you will be very powerful in the future!

Speaking of which, you have been extraordinary since you were a child.

Whose child doesn’t have enough food even with five wet nurses?

Whose child can wet the bed until the age of six?

Whose child can ride and beat a dog at the age of one?
Looking around Fuyun County, you are not the only one!
Once, you competed with someone in peeing, but your urine flew three meters away..."

Li Zizai felt very comfortable at first, smiling broadly, but then his face flushed and he glared at the servant:

"Just shut up! You still haven't gotten over your habit of telling lies to people you know!"

After scolding, he secretly glanced at Xuanming. Seeing that his master did not react, he breathed a sigh of relief.

Agui: ...

Everything I said is true!

Although he felt aggrieved, Agui did not refute.

Although he was able to work as a doorman in the Li Mansion because of the master's grace and the fact that he was the grandson of the housekeeper, he was also smart.

I know I just said the wrong thing.

Following the young master's gaze, he saw the slovenly old Taoist priest. Thinking of what the young master had just said, Ah Gui was instantly excited, his eyes lit up frighteningly, he knelt on the ground, and said excitedly:
"I have met the old immortal."

He was about to kowtow after he finished speaking, but found that no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't do it, and he immediately became even more excited.

Xuanming's tattered clothes and unkempt appearance also made him look like a hidden talent in Agui's eyes. The storybooks often mentioned that many masters behaved unexpectedly and had various quirks.

Maybe the old immortal just likes uncleanness.

Just like crops in the fields like farmyard manure.

The dirtier it is, the happier he is.

Others had already taken action upon hearing the noise.

Many servants gathered around, and when they saw Li Zizai, they were stunned at first, and then overjoyed.

When they saw Agui's actions, they were even happier.

When Li Daniu came with his wife, he saw the servants kneeling on the ground. He recognized Xuanming at a glance.

He handed his pregnant wife to the maid, and hurried to Xuanming in two steps. His eyes were red and wet. He knelt on the ground and choked with sobs:
"I...I, Li Daniu, pay my respects to Master Xuanming. After so many years, I finally see you again."

At the same time, a cry of "ouch" was heard.

Li Zizai, who was kicked away by Xuanming, got up, rubbed his butt, grimaced, and complained in his heart.

"Master, can't you be a little more gentle?"

"My dear father! You really know how to trick your son. Didn't you see that I am a grown man? If it weren't for Master's quick reaction and the father kneeling to his son, I would have shortened my life!"

At this time, Xuanming and Li Daniu were both ignoring Li Zizai, and they were both reminiscing about the past.

At that time, Xuanming had just started his journey into the world.

At that time, Li Daniu was still a servant.

Li Daniu was Xuanming’s first guest.

Xuanming is Li Daniu's benefactor in life.

He helped Li Daniu up, and waved his sleeves to lift up the servants. Xuanming said with emotion: "Now that you are rich and powerful, you still remember to give back to your hometown and benefit the people. I am very pleased."

Li Daniu: "I dare not forget the teachings of the True Lord."

"You don't have to call me Zhenjun. I'm just an ordinary Taoist priest when I come down the mountain."

After a few brief conversations, the sense of strangeness after not seeing each other for a long time was alleviated a little and the atmosphere gradually became better.

A beautiful woman in a rose-red dress came forward, and Li Daniu immediately introduced her: "Master, this is my wife."

"Meet Taoist Xuanming."

"The layman is polite."

After a while, Xuanming was invited into the lobby with a crowd of people following him.

Li Zizai, who was pulled down and ignored by everyone: ...

Then I go?
