Chapter 111 Brother's Request
Lin Xiao patted his pocket, his clothes were empty and there was nothing inside. He habitually touched his left finger. The storage ring on his finger was refined into ashes in the Forbidden Immortal Formation, and there was no residue left. Bai Botang gave him a credit card as a gift. Lin Xiao was a polite person, and there were Bai Zhongyuan and his family waiting to see him, the freshly released second uncle, second uncle, and second great-grandfather. How could he be empty-handed?
With a bitter smile, Lin Xiao looked at Bai Botang apologetically: "Old ~ Brother, brother, I am ashamed. I was trapped in a dangerous situation a while ago, and some of the things on my body were lost. This ~~~~"
Before Lin Xiao could finish his words, Bai Zhongyuan had already brought his brothers and descendants to Lin Xiao, standing in line with him, respectfully and bowing to Lin Xiao in an orderly manner, and shouting loudly: "Second uncle (second uncle, second great-grandfather)!"
OK, as soon as the 'second uncle' came out, Lin Xiao shook his hands and said with a wry smile: "Brother~This is the meeting gift~"
Bai Botang giggled and shook his head repeatedly and said, "What are you saying? Brother and you hit it off at first sight. Maybe we were good brothers in our previous life, so why did you say that there would be no meeting gifts? These kids can still give them a free gift? There is no such saying, no such saying! Oh, children, hurry up and put on the flowing mat. I and my second brother should not stop getting drunk!"
After grabbing Lin Xiao's wrist, Bai Botang laughed: "Second brother, if you really want to do it, just help me with a little favor."
"Oh?" Lin Xiao raised his eyebrows and looked at Bai Botang and asked, "What is the eldest brother saying?"
Although he didn't mind, Lin Xiao still felt a little bump in his heart. Why did he have a big brother inexplicably? The second brother's position was not even hot even when he was in the pp, so why did he find something on his head? Lin Xiao shook his head and thought in his heart that his face was still too thin. But Bai Botang said, "Zhongyuan, call that kid Ji Le back quickly. Hey, I asked him to be his second great-grandfather as his master. His seniority is twice as high as his father. He is not talking nonsense this time, right?"
"Uh?" Lin Xiao was stunned. He looked at Bai Botang blankly, and his mind was unable to turn the corner for a while.
Bai Zhongyuan looked at Bai Botang foolishly, and his face was sucked into a ball.
Among the descendants of the Bai family, a middle-aged man in his fifties turned blue and black. He looked at Bai Botang with great resentment and almost burst into tears. A few brothers around him, who were about the same age as him, looked at him gloatingly, and some people almost stretched out their hands to applaud.
Lin Xiao smiled bitterly and let Bai Botang pull himself back to the hall.
"I have to be too thin, so I have to be thicker! If this matter was bald and the others, I wouldn't have recognized him as the eldest brother inexplicably, and I have to accept an apprentice for no reason, right?"
Lin Xiao sighed in his heart. He finally realized how correct the bald fat man and his evaluation of him were: Lin Xiao is a good person, a too good person. Therefore, in this world where evil people and bitches are rampant, he, a good person, will inevitably suffer losses!
Bai Botang's family cannot be considered evil people, but to say that they are all a bunch of bitches, that is undoubtedly true.
Can a normal person be like Bai Botang? I just asked about Lin Xiaodi's origin and did not even verify whether the origin that Lin Xiao mentioned was correct, so I forced Lin Xiao to worship the boss. What if Lin Xiao was a villain, a great evil man?
In the world of Taoism, how serious and sacred it is to become a sworn brother. Lin Xiaozheng felt that Bai Botang’s actions today were too scammers.
Lin Xiao suddenly had a hint of enlightenment in his heart. He said to himself: Perhaps, the hearts of the people on earth are so impetuous and so messy, so they have only the articles like the Tao Te Ching, but they have not met a real practitioner. The impetuous hearts and the wishes of the people are so serious and solemn, so that in Lin Xiao's eyes, they can all treat things with a playful attitude. But they are so playful, but they catch Lin Xiao off guard. Even if they don't have the chance to express their opinions, they are forced to press their heads down and drink this sip of water obediently.
"Since you come, be at ease!" Lin Xiao told himself: "After you learn from your mistakes, they at least have no ill intentions towards me. Well, even this old man really has such a bit of brotherly emotions towards him. Let's see what he wants to do."
With a smile on his face, Lin Xiao followed Bai Botang into the hall, quietly waiting for Bai Jile, who was arranged to be his apprentice.
Cheerful Chancellery, this is the residence arranged by Bai Botang for Lin Xiao.
Before Lin Xiao’s future disciple Bai Jile officially became a disciple, Lin Xiao would live here.
Cheerful Chancellery, this is the study where Bai Botang usually splashes ink and cultivates his mind. There are plum, orchid, pine and chrysanthemums in the front, back and forth, left and right sides of the study, and in front of a large moon-shaped window hole, there is a pool of green pool water, and there are three or five pairs of mandarin ducks swimming comfortably in the pool water. There are several thick rice paper on the inkstone two feet square, and the stars dotted on the inkstone about a few feet long. A few pieces of handmade ink seem to be casually placed beside the inkstone. On the pen holder, there are more than a dozen rabbit hairs of different sizes and wolf hair brushes swaying gently in the wind. The pens, ink, paper and ink are all the best, but in Lin Xiao's eyes, these things are nothing - the brush used in Huichun Valley, the brushes are pulled out from the beasts that have become essence, and they are all spiritual!
So, Lin Xiao lay lazily on a soft couch in the quizing hall, holding his head lazily with his hands, and tilting his body to look at the bright moon in the sky outside the window.
A thin wind blew out of Lin Xiao's body, bringing a stream of fresh aura. Lin Xiao did not notice this change. He was just curious. In the past few days, he seemed to have made a lot faster when he practiced. More importantly, when he breathed in the aura of the weather, he no longer smelled the unbearable stench. It seemed that the environment on the earth was gradually getting better.
"Bai Jile is a wonderful person. After sending so many people to find him, he can't find his whereabouts. Well, although he is an illegitimate son, it is unlikely that he will take over the business of the Bai family, but is it so slutty? I will accept him as his disciple. Can he become a weapon?" Lin Xiao looked at the bright moon hanging in the sky and couldn't help but sigh softly.
During the day, Bai Botang was driven to the shelves and kowtowed and bowed. There was a brother who was a brother who was a charity out of thin air. Another disciple was forced to be stuffed, but this disciple was too interesting. Even the Bai family waited for him all day, but now it was almost midnight and there was no news. Personality, Bai Jile is really too personal. No wonder Bai Zhongyuan heard Bai Botang begging Lin Xiao to accept Bai Jile as his apprentice, and there was a sudden sigh of relief on his face.
"Well, what are Brother Bai doing now?" Lin Xiao was curious for a moment. His mysterious skills were silent, and his spiritual sense covered the entire Bai family compound.
In a small Buddhist temple deep in the courtyard, Bai Botang sat cross-legged on a straw cushion, looking at his sons and grandsons in a solemn manner. In the incense burner beside him, three extremely thin sandalwood was rising from the blue smoke. Bai Botang put his hands in front of his dantian and took a few deep breaths before he narrowed his eyes. He asked lightly: "Have you found Ji Le? Shuhua, how did you do this?"
Bai Jile's father, Bai Shuhua, the slightly chubby middle-aged man, wiped a layer of sweat from his forehead and smiled bitterly: "Grandpa, you don't know. It's useless for me to care about him. After all, Ji Hua's talent and knowledge are top-notch in dealing with people. Although Ji Le's talent is far beyond ordinary people, for the sake of the stability of the Bai family, Ji Le cannot interfere in family affairs. The reason why he gave up on himself is so self-destructive. How can I control him all day long?"
"If you don't go out and make trouble, how could this happen today?" Bai Zhongyuan glared at Bai Shuhua, and smiled at Bai Botang, "Father, don't be anxious. This is not the first time I can't find Ji Le's person. I think he won't have any big problems. I have asked someone to stop his space card. As long as he spends all his cash, he will naturally come back."
"Hmph!" Bai Botang snorted and whispered: "Not only do I think something will happen to him, but I finally met a strange person like Brother Lin. I waited for a whole day but didn't see Ji Le showed up. Wouldn't it be a negligence?"
Bai Zhongyuan didn't say anything. Uncle Bai opened his mouth and looked at the brothers around him. Uncle Bai's second brother. A tall bald middle-aged man smiled and said softly: "Old man, that Lin Xiao~"
Bai Botang rolled his eyes and snorted coldly: "Call the second uncle."
"Yes!" The middle-aged man bowed slightly and chuckled: "Although the Second Uncle has a very magical martial arts, in this era, all kinds of martial arts are useless. What works is power, wealth, and various relationships. You value him too much. Even if the Second Uncle saves you, you treat him too well."
"What do you know?" Bai Botang sneered and said lightly: "Being sworn brother Lin is indeed to repay his life-saving grace. Well, Shu Zhi said it well. Nowadays, the years when I was in the world are different from those of me. Fighting and killing are useless, but martial arts do not mean anything. However, Brother Lin is such a strange person, well, it is my luck to be able to meet him."
Shaking his head, Bai Botang said solemnly: "You don't understand, you don't understand anything. Brother Lin, not just what he shows? Hehe, you are still a little bit inferior to the boss in your ability to look at people!" Squinted his eyes, Bai Botang smiled proudly: "I have made friends with Brother Lin, our Bai family will be worry-free in the next hundred years. Besides, it just solves Ji Le's big hidden danger!"
Bai Zhongyuan, Bai Shuhua, and Bai Shuzi were also surprised and said, "Hidden danger?"
Bai Botang sighed deeply, and he said lightly: "Yes! Hidden danger! Ji Hua's talent is a leader among ordinary people, and it is enough to take over everything in my Bai family in decades. But Ji Le is a natural resource, and his talent and ability are ten times better than Ji Hua! But because of his background~ Shu Hua~ you did this matter badly. You took Ji Le back to the Bai family after Ji Le was sixteen years old. At that time, Ji Hua had been confirmed to be the successor of my Bai family. How can you be at peace with Ji Hua in the future? "
"This~" Bai Zhongyuan and others collectively lost their voices.
"So, I was originally a friend of Brother Lin, but it was okay for me to become a friend of my age, but for Ji Le~ after I became sworn brothers Lin, I asked Ji Le to be my disciple of Brother Lin, so Ji Le had nothing to say. Brother Lin's cultivation was amazing. Even if Ji Le was a genius among geniuses, it would take more than ten years to learn Brother Lin's skills. What Brother Lin learned was a Taoist lineage and had been immersed for more than ten years. Ji Le would be indifferent to the struggle for family property in the future. My Bai family was truly worry-free!"
Uncle Bai grinned and smiled bitterly: "Grandpa, Ji Le is now wandering around and having fun every day, will he be willing to compete for his family property?"
Bai Botang closed his eyes and said coldly: "For three years, you will not fly, soar into the sky, but for three years, you will not make a sound! You underestimate your son too much! He is wandering around and having fun every day, but he has 179 accounts in the stock market. Do you know? You have given him pocket money in the past few years, and he has more than 70 times in the stock market. Do you know? He has already had a small financial consulting company outside, and the name of a close friend of his friends is hanging. Do you know?"
Bai Zhongyuan, Bai Shuhua, and Bai Shuja, cold sweat rolled down his forehead. He looked at Bai Botang in panic.
Bai Botang sighed in a low voice: "Of course you don't know. These things are clearly written in my suicide note. In my suicide note, I also left behind how to use violent means to curb Ji Le. But I don't want to see my Bai family's children tragically trash each other when I was alive, so I never mentioned them to you. God is pitiful. When I thought I would die, I was rescued by Brother Lin. Now it seems that I can live at least twenty years more. I originally wanted to help you suppress Ji Le for twenty years. But now there is a better way ~ do you think?"
Bai Zhongyuan, Bai Shuhua, Bai Shuzi and other senior executives of the Bai family praised in unison: "You are wise."
"Yeah!" Bai Botang nodded and said in a deep voice: "It's no wise! If I'm wise enough, I should have cut all your cocks after you gave birth to your first son! It's not possible to make so many soap opera plots. Where is Zhongyuan~"
Bai Zhongyuan took a step forward and said dryly: "Father, Zhongyuan is here!"
Bai Botang nodded and sneered: "Tomorrow, I will tell everyone at home, who will leave any flesh and blood outside? Go to the hospital to get a knife quickly!"
After a long silence, Bai Zhongyuan's face formed a ball and said with a dry smile: "Yes!"
Lin Xiao, who was using his spiritual sense to peek here, also had a twitching face, as if he was a little uncomfortable. He remembered the various things that Hua Wuniang did in Huichun Hall to beware of her and Lin Yao’s dispute over the family property. Lin Xiao suddenly understood Bai Botang’s approach. Lin Xiao smiled lightly and sighed: “I’m sorry, my parents in the world~” At the same time, he also developed great curiosity about Bai Jile—to be able to get such praise from Bai Botang. I think Bai Jile’s qualifications are really good. Maybe. Should we leave a lineage for the Daluo Dandao on earth?
If the earth was not classified as its own sphere of influence by other Taoist sects, according to the rules of the Taoist sect, Lin Xiao could have announced that from today on, the earth belongs to the Daluo Dandao. In this way, if Bai Jile really has such talent and accepts him as a disciple and allows him to spread his branches and leaves on the earth, it would be the best thing. Especially with the financial support of the Bai family behind it, the development of the Daluo Dandao on the earth will definitely be smoother.
"But if there is no Taoist sect on the earth, what's going on with the "Tao Te Ching"?" Lin Xiao Yilu climbed up from the bed and walked slowly to the desk. Xin grabbed a large pen with a child's wrist, dipped in a little ink left in the inkstone, and wrote the word "morality" on the rice paper. Lin Xiao felt something in his heart. A wisp of water and fire true essence penetrated into the pen tip when he wrote. Thunder light flashed on the two big words. Listen carefully, there was a faint "buzzing" roar on the rice paper.
After letting out a long sigh, Lin Xiao looked at the two big words in front of him, which were as big as a white crane flying in the sky and out of the world, and couldn't help but nodded with satisfaction. As soon as he was writing, Lin Xiao's entire energy seemed to be integrated with the heaven and earth around him. Although it was in the middle stage of the Golden Pill, he faintly understood the feeling of unity between man and nature that only masters in the virtual realm had. Lin Xiao also felt that these two big words were more elegant and more perfect than all the characters he had written before.
