The world of Taoism

Chapter 6 Temple Fair
Zhou Xuan was both surprised and delighted, he didn't expect to gain a bit of spirituality.

Kill the old wolf by yourself and gain a little spirituality. Could it be possible to gain spirituality by killing living things?
"Young master! Young master!" Uncle Liu called from afar.

"Forget it, let's deal with it tomorrow." Zhou Xuan turned and left.

It was too late, in case something weird happened.

Immediately he turned around and went out of the grove, and met Uncle Liu in the field, followed by two tenants of the Zhou family.

When the tenant saw Zhou Xuan, he immediately called him young master.

Although all the servants of the Zhou family were dismissed, there must still be tenants for farming.

"Master, you can make it easy for me to find that place. I can't go to that place. A few people disappeared a few years ago." Seeing Zhou Xuan coming out of the woods, Uncle Liu was startled.

"It's okay, I'm just walking around," Zhou Xuan waved his hand, expressing his indifference.

After exchanging greetings for a while, they went back to the house to rest.

Uncle Liu looked at Zhou Xuan's leaving back, feeling deeply moved in his heart.

Since the young master woke up with a fever, he has changed a lot, and he has made great progress in dealing with people.

Mysterious all day long, I don't know what I'm tinkering with.

As the housekeeper, Uncle Liu naturally knew that Zhou Xuan had consumed a lot of medicinal materials recently.

Uncle Liu pretended not to know about this, but bought a lot of medicinal materials and put them in the warehouse, even if it delayed the business of the pharmacies in the city.

"Master, Young Master Sun looks more and more like you..." Uncle Liu sighed, and then changed into an old and confused look again.

The so-called master refers to Zhou Xuan's grandfather Zhou Wencai, and this family business was also left by Zhou Wencai.

Uncle Liu has been a servant of the Zhou family since he was a child, and watched Zhou Xuan and his son grow up.

He doesn't care what Zhou Xuan becomes like, as long as the Zhou family is passed on smoothly.

The next day, in the woods.

The corpse of the old wolf was still in place, and there were a few more corpses of wild wolves beside it.

Zhou Xuan stood next to the corpse. He used the corpse of the old wolf that died yesterday as a lure to kill two wolves and a wild boar, but in the end he had no spirituality at all.

"What's wrong?" Zhou Xuan frowned and thought.

Why do old wolves have spirituality, but other wolves or animals cannot.

At this time, Zhou Xuan had a flash of inspiration, and suddenly thought of something.

There are several versions of the so-called spirituality. Buddhism refers to wisdom, Taoism refers to understanding and mind, and Confucianism refers to intelligence.

The old wolf is old and mature, so he has spirituality.

The others are just plain beasts, so no.

"Could it be that only creatures with a certain amount of intelligence have spirituality?" A terrifying thought emerged in Zhou Xuan's mind, "Isn't human beings just..."

With the same thought, an unprovoked killing intent erupted from his chest.

A little bit of spirituality for one person is worth a hundred points for a hundred people.

One hundred points of spirituality is enough to deduce the spell to a super powerful level.

A strong desire to kill rose in Zhou Xuan's heart.

He wants to kill Uncle Liu, all the tenants of the Zhou family, and then...

A chill came from the information panel in his mind, and Zhou Xuanru immediately calmed down with a slap in the face.

"What happened just now?" Zhou Xuan's back was wet with cold sweat.

It seemed that a voice kept telling him to kill people just now, if it wasn't for the information panel, Zhou Xuan would have gone mad by now.

I am not that kind of person, how could I kill people for illusory things.

Zhou Xuan didn't want to kill innocent humans and become a murderous maniac.

Those who kill without reason are demons. Throughout the ages, Zhou Xuan has never heard of a serious cultivator killing innocent people to practice magic.

Zhou Xuan also didn't want to be blinded by the killing.

He practiced magic, just wanting to have the strength to live decently in this world.

Murder will definitely attract government sanctions. Zhou Dazhi has repeatedly stated in the records that the government has mysterious powers.

It's probably not good to be a chivalrous man, the ghost knows what methods these villains have.I will look at my current strength later.

So if you want to gain spirituality, you can only go through monsters, or find some animals with higher intelligence.

Thinking of this, Zhou Xuan left the forest.

It was the busy season of farming at this time, and the tenants were all working in the fields, with Uncle Liu directing.

Zhou Xuan went down to help harvest the rice when he had nothing to do, and the tenants were amazed that Master Zhou, who was so sluggish, could actually work.

Uncle Liu watched with tears in his eyes, secretly sighing that Master Zhou was indeed sensible.

In this day and age, doing farm work has never been looked down upon.

Some aristocratic families passed on farming and studying, and the emperor would go to the farmland every year to persuade farmers.

Zhou Xuan's physical strength was weak, and he was sweating profusely after working for a while. He was tired and lay down on the haystack, looking up at the sky with white clouds.

Be an ordinary little landlord, grow something you like, hire some beautiful little maids, and take three wives and four concubines.

It is simply a dream life, if there are not so many messy things.

This world is too dangerous, Zhou Xuan faintly felt uneasy.

"Forget it, let's go to the city to check the situation first." Zhou Xuan got up and patted the dirt on his buttocks.

It seemed that someone called him from behind.

Zhou Xuan turned his head, and behind him was a fat man.

This fat man was short and fat, wearing a loose brocade robe and a melon hat inlaid with emeralds, making him look very rich.

"Brother Lin!" Zhou Xuan arched his hands.

The fat man ran all the way, sweating profusely, took off his hat, fanned the wind and said, "Brother Zhou, do you have any money? Lend me some."

"Money? Do you want 50 taels?" Zhou Xuan laughed.

The 50 taels were obtained from Zhou Dazhi.

The name of this fat man was Lin Zhengxiong, he was Zhou Xuan's best friend since he was a child, and the son of a medicine merchant, Zhou Xuan's family medicine shop bought goods from him.

This person is proficient in drinking, wealth, sex, and his family is strict, so he came to Zhou Xuan to borrow money from time to time, but he paid back the money in time.

"If you want it, as long as you have the money." Lin Zhengxiong took the silver, "I will pay you back sometime."

Seeing this, Zhou Xuan smiled: "Are you going to gamble again?"

Lin Zhengxiong's family is richer than Zhou's family, and this fat man spends a lot of money, and he can lose dozens or even hundreds of taels of silver every time he gambles.

His father beat Lin Zhengxiong badly every time, and even cut off his source of income.

Although he restrained himself somewhat, he still couldn't help his gambling addiction, and repeatedly asked Zhou Xuan to borrow money to gamble.

"I don't dare to gamble anymore. If I continue to gamble, I will never be spared." Lin Zhengxiong shook his head.

"In a few days at the temple fair in the county town, ladies who usually stay at home will go out, do you want to take you to have fun?" Lin Zhengxiong asked with a smile.

"Temple fair?" Zhou Xuan thought for a while, then nodded, "Okay...

"I haven't seen you in half a year. You've had a lot of inspiration recently." Lin Zhengxiong seemed to know Zhou Xuan again.

In the past, this kid couldn't get a fart for a long time, and he hardly knew how to understand the world, but now he has changed a lot, and I don't know if it is an illusion.

Recently, I heard people say that the Zhou family boy has become more sensible, and it is true now.

"That's right. There have been too many accidents recently, and after getting a fever, I figured out everything." Zhou Xuan expressed emotion.

The predecessor Zhou Xuan was not a fool, but a nerd.

After these few days of performance, Zhou Xuan finally made people feel that he was slowly becoming sensible.

Rather than shocking the world as if enlightened overnight.

The two agreed on a place, and Lin Zhengxiong took the money and left.
