Who cares about childhood sweethearts when they can become immortals?

Chapter 46: Immortal or Immortal?

"Ah, it's finally here!"

After getting off the spirit boat, Zhong Longhu stretched himself.

The nearly twelve-hour voyage could not be said to be very long, but it was definitely not short. However, Zhong Longhu felt a little bored because he could not practice or use spells on the spirit boat.

And perhaps because I have flown this route many times, I haven't encountered any blind flying monsters, which makes the journey even more boring.

Of course, it’s not just Zhong Longhu. Even Xu Ji feels that this flight is a bit long. Although he can practice the Vientiane Life Technique, practicing the Vientiane Life Technique also requires the consumption of spiritual energy, and there is no inhalation room on the lower level of the spirit boat. Breathe in and out to restore spiritual energy.

But relying solely on the meager spiritual energy in the air to restore one's own spiritual energy is too slow.

"Everyone, follow me closely and don't run around." Su Hong reminded everyone.

Fengling Mansion's airport is no different than Qingyuan Airport. It connects routes to other continental prefectures and all nearby small cities. Its area is not small, and its size is not small.

If this is your first time coming to Fengling Mansion’s airport, it’s not surprising that you’ll be dazzled and lost your way.

However, they were all senior high school students after all, so they would not really run around and get lost just because they saw new things. They followed Su Hong all the way out of the airport and took the bus to a hotel very close to Fengling Taoist Temple to check in. Check in.

Of course, a hotel that is very close to Fengling Taoist Temple is not ordinary. This hotel itself is the property of Fengling Taoist Temple. There are many tourists on weekdays, so it is extremely difficult to reserve a room.

This time it was also because he was going to Fengling Taoist Academy to study, so he was able to provide enough rooms for Xu Ji and his party.

After distributing the room cards, Su Hong told everyone: "You guys have a good rest tonight. We will gather at eight o'clock tomorrow morning and go to Fengling Taoist Academy to study."

After everyone agreed, they dispersed, and Xu Ji took the room card and found her room.

Pushing the door and walking in, the room is not big, just a single room, but although it is small, it is well-equipped with a bathroom, a training room, a bed, tables and chairs, etc.

Xu Ji, who was just about to practice the Vientiane Life Skill, suddenly heard a knock on the door and had to stop Dingzhu Jin's posture.

"Aji, do you want to go shopping nearby together? I just saw on the bus that this neighborhood should be quite lively."

Xu Ji opened the door and saw that the person coming was none other than Zhong Longhu.

If Xu Ji would have refused without hesitation before, what would be the use of wandering around? How is your own daily practice important?
  But after his father's guidance, Xu Ji also realized that he was no longer a simple training machine, and wasn't the surrounding scenery of Fengling Taoist Temple something he had never seen before?
  So Xu Ji smiled and said: "Okay, I have completed today's practice of Wandao Jue before going to Qingyuan Airport this morning. It would be good to go shopping."

"Then let's ask Ah Wen if they can get out. It will be more lively if there are more people." Zhong Longhu took Xu Ji and went to He Wen, and then He Wen went to Jiang Na, and finally the four of them went together Left the hotel.

"There are quite a lot of people around here." He Wen clicked his tongue twice. The hotel is not far from Fengling Taoist Temple. There are many businesses on the nearby streets, but most of them are related to spiritual practice.

Zhong Longhu smiled and said: "After all, it is Fengling Taoist Temple, one of the nine major ones. Every year, it recruits a lot of geniuses from the entire Immortal Alliance. These people are not poor. Their huge purchasing power naturally attracts a large number of traders. A university town was formed around Fengling Taoist Temple." "Most of these people are monks, right?" Jiang Na casually chatted.

Zhong Longhu glanced around: "Yes, after all, most of the things sold here are immortal cultivation resources, elixirs, and magic weapons. If you are just an ordinary person, it may not be easy to introduce and demonstrate these things. Naturally, you need monks to be store clerks. Shopping guide.”

However, even if they can make a living as shop assistants, they will naturally not be powerful monks. Most of them are only at the first or second level of Qi training. In terms of strength, they are far from the opponents of Xu Ji and others.

"But the treatment here should not be bad. After all, the clerk can get a small commission every time he sells something. If he encounters a big customer, I am afraid that one day's income can support his cultivation for a year." Zhong Longhu Tutted.

"Longhu, how come you know this so well?" He Wen asked in confusion.

Zhong Longhu waved his hand and said: "My old man was not very talented when he was young. He was not even admitted to a Taoist academy. Later, he forcibly took elixirs and body-casting skills in the academy to return to his innate nature. He condensed false spiritual roots and became a Qi-training monk. But the erysipelas entered the body and blocked the way forward."

"The old man joined a large company as a salesperson at that time, and then he saved a little bit of the family business to train my father. When the old man was still here, he often recalled the hardships and sweet things with me, and told me about his experiences back then."

"So I know more about these things."

Everyone was silent for a while, not knowing how to answer. He Wen said in a deep voice: "Longhu, I'm sorry, I..."

"It's harmful." Zhong Longhu waved his hand and interrupted He Wen, "The old man was quite happy when he left. He said that he was quite proud of having cultivated a true cultivator of foundation building. It's a sad feeling."

"It's really hard on me. My father was so excited by the old man that he patted his chest and promised that he would train me to become a Jindan master. His demands on me suddenly became much higher."

Under Zhong Longhu's jokes, the somewhat heavy atmosphere among the people relaxed a lot, and they continued to wander around the surrounding streets while talking and laughing.

Xu Ji silently followed everyone, her eyes passing over the shops around her, but her mind couldn't help but think of the fly shop where her father took her to yesterday, where only mortals were present.

How big is the gap between the two?
  One is located in the university town around Fengling Taoist Temple. It is magnificent and magnificent. The customers it receives are all monks, and the items they sell are all cultivation items for monks to use.

One is located in a remote corner of Qingyuan City, with simple decoration. Both the boss and the customers are just mortals, and what they sell are just some food for mortals who have no spiritual energy and are just for full stomachs.

But how similar are the two?

What about mortals? What about monks? People in the world are busy coming and going, but in the final analysis, isn’t it all about living?
  Spiders build webs to live, earthworms loosen soil to live, and even monks smile to greet people because they are alive.

Just to live, just to live better.

Is this the way of immortality? Is this humane?
  Is this the way of an immortal?
  It seems that various insights are constantly rising in Xu Ji's heart, and he seems to have a vague understanding of why Chunyuan Tianzun ended the sect era where immortals and mortals are separated, and opened the era of immortal alliance where immortals and mortals are not separated...

"Aji, what are you thinking about? Can you go inside and take a walk?"
