Chapter 85: with translation of chapter title

Old Brother Wang, I understand!

Xuanqing Daozhang nodded, forcing away the embarrassment deep in his heart. Don't look at his age, but he isn't thick-skinned; taking advantage of his disciple for his own benefit still makes him somewhat embarrassed.

Although the profit wasn't his, but his disciple's, who is also Wang Ping'an's senior martial brother.

Xuanqing Daozhang still felt somewhat embarrassed, but he felt he must properly take care of Wang Ping'an from now on; no, even without this matter he would still have to take care of Wang Ping'an.

Who let his dream of leaving a name in history be pinned on Wang Ping'an.

He certainly didn't want to be unrecorded in the several-hundred-year history, even in Daoist history.

Even if in the following hundreds or even thousands of years, in Daoist history he would leave only the eleven characters 'Wang Ping'an's enlightenment teacher Xuanqing Daoist', he would already be content.

"Daoist Luo, just as you said, the evil cultivator causing trouble in our Qingyang County this time was dealt with by you!"

As soon as Xuanqing Daozhang finished speaking, he saw a fleeting joy in Luo Liang's eyes, though he wasn't overly excited; apparently he had Luo Liang figured out, and didn't mind, reminding him:

"However, Daoist Luo, you promised your matter..."

Although Xuanqing Daozhang didn't say the following words, Luo Liang certainly understood the meaning, and solemnly said: "Senior brother, rest assured, I'll go back now and deliver what I promised you!"

While speaking, Luo Liang had achieved his goal and had no mind to linger here; as for the infant that Xuanqing Daozhang had just taken in, said to be a Great Benevolent Person Reincarnation, he had no mind to spare a glance, turning to prepare to leave.

He hadn't taken a few steps when Luo Liang seemed to think of something, halted his stride, turned his head to Xuanqing Daozhang, and said: "I'm muddle-headed, I forgot to tell you, senior brother, at Hutou Gou Village Chief's place you still need to give instructions!"

Before.

Under the guidance of the Hutou Gou villagers, Xuanqing Daozhang came to the murder scene, confirmed Heipao Ren's identity, and immediately arranged another villager from Hutou Gou to go to the county city and invite Luo Liang over.

Preparing to let Luo Liang handle the aftermath!

First, Luo Liang is an Immortal Official of Qingyang County, and subduing the evil cultivator harming Qingyang County is his duty; second, Luo Liang promised him benefits for subduing the evil cultivator, so he naturally couldn't steal Luo Liang's credit; third, he was very worried about Wang Ping'an's safety and had no extra mind to linger at the murder scene.

"Daoist Luo, rest assured, I'll go to Village Chief Cheng later and let him know what should and shouldn't be said!"

How could Xuanqing Daozhang not understand Luo Liang's intention to silence him? Fortunately it wasn't a physical gag; Cheng Yong, having lived most of his life, has seen all kinds of storms, and will naturally understand his meaning.

No need to worry about wasting words!

"Senior brother, I won't disturb you while you take care of your disciple; if I have something to do, I'll leave first!"

Having said that, Luo Liang turned and left.

Watching Luo Liang's disappearing back, Xuanqing Daozhang then withdrew his gaze and thanked Wang Lin beside him:

"Old Brother Wang, thank you this time. Since Yuan Liang and Yuan Ming have gradually grown up, I have taught all I can with my skills; they should be sent to Ziyang Palace to learn skills."

"But I only have one slot, I didn't know who to send, feeling torn; now that Immortal Official Luo has a slot, both of these boys can be sent to Ziyang Palace to learn skills!"

"Daozhang, you're being polite; didn't you just say we're all one family!"

Wang Lin smiled; don't look at him being a rustic old farmer, but he still knows the great name of Ziyang Palace, and Xuanqing Daozhang comes from there.

He is a first-rate talented person; according to his own words, in Ziyang Palace he is obscure, and those who are stronger and more talented than him are everywhere.

Being able to study skills at Ziyang Palace is a good thing countless people dream of.

He naturally understands the preciousness of this slot!

Wang Lin, however, doesn't mind: first, their family's Ping'an is still young; second, he believes that when their family's Ping'an grows up, any good fortune Xuanqing Daozhang has will definitely include their family's Ping'an. Moreover, he can never forget that Xuanqing Daozhang stood up for their family, made a trip to Capital City, and in the process lost twenty years of his yang lifespan.

Compared to twenty years of yang lifespan, what is the favor he did?

"What you said is correct, we are one family!"

Xuanqing Daozhang laughed heartily.

Liu Dongzhu walked in holding a plate of fragrant, spicy stir-fried pork with chili, hearing the hearty laughter of Xuanqing Daozhang and Wang Lin, she asked doubtfully: "Daozhang, Father, what are you laughing at?"

Hearing this, Xuanqing Daozhang and Wang Lin exchanged a glance, then burst into hearty laughter again, saying: "Happy, we two are happy!"

"What's there to be happy about?"

Liu Dongzhu said, not understanding.

Soon after.

The dining table was filled with a decently rich variety of home-cooked dishes; besides seasonal vegetables and cured meat, there were also many wild game, all of which the Hutou Gou villagers had been sending over from time to time during this period.

All thanks to the divine cat hero!

Thank it for its good deeds during this period, solving the mice that stole grain from the granary.

Zhang Guihua watched Liu Dongzhu holding Wang Ping'an turn and leave, puzzled: "Dongzhu, what are you doing off to, not sitting down to eat together?"

"Yes, Dongzhu, eat together; I'm not an outsider!"

Xuanqing Daozhang echoed.

"Mother, Daozhang, I'll go feed Ping'an first, and after he's full I'll come back to eat!"

Liu Dongzhu said solemnly.

Zhang Guihua opened her mouth, wanting to say something, but thinking of how much her family's Dongzhu values her family's Ping'an, even if she herself were hungry she wouldn't let Ping'an go hungry; the words on the tip of her tongue were swallowed back, and she changed her words to:

"Go early and return early, otherwise the dishes will get cold!"

"Mother, you can't say that to me; you should say it to this little rascal Ping'an!"

Liu Dongzhu made a joking remark, then held Wang Ping'an and walked into the bedroom.

Here.

Someone naturally wouldn't be convenient to nurse!

"Ding! Growth energy has met the upgrade condition, level automatically upgrading lv4→lv5!"

"Ding! Level up, rewards obtained: Physique+1, Spirit Power+1, Affability+1, Luck+1, Perception+1!"

"Ding! Reward: Strength+1!"

A series of three mechanical, cold sounds rang out in his mind; Wang Ping'an originally didn't care, but upon hearing the last sound his expression slightly changed.

Who would have thought someone actually obtained a new reward—Strength!

However.

He paused for a few seconds, then Wang Ping'an's thoughts returned to eating.

After a long while, Liu Dongzhu waited until Wang Ping'an had eaten and drunk his fill, then lay in his arms as if asleep, and said teasingly:

"Little thing, you must have been a pig in your past life, eating then sleeping, sleeping then eating, never knowing when you'll grow up!"
