Chapter 0007: Not Wanting to Marry for the Time Being

Dark Small Medium Large Original Scroll to Bottom

Lu Chuan raised his head and smiled, but the smile was somewhat bitter and forced

Oh!

Lu Chuan hurriedly bowed and apologized, saying: "Please allow me to explain, sir. I did not intend to eavesdrop; I came to find you after dinner for a matter, but I did not expect that the master was still here with you..."

Jiang Ziya said with a smile that was neither fully a smile nor a frown: "So you have been waiting at the door all this time, to the point of almost falling asleep there?"

Lu Liang cast a glance at his foolish son and said: "Although I am not very capable, I have saved some money over the years, enough to find you a wife and buy a house..."

Perhaps influenced by some online comments from previous lives, he does not have much fondness for Western teachings. For now, it is still referred to as Western teachings, but after the canonization, it will become the flourishing Buddhism.

Jiang Ziya shook his head and said, "It is not for this reason."

Jiang Ziya simply shook his head and said: "You... should choose another master instead!"

If we discuss the most prosperous religious sects in the world today, apart from the two branches of Daoism, namely the Xuan and Jie schools, only the Western religions remain

As soon as he entered, Lu Chuan saw a person looking at him by the stone table in the courtyard

Lu Liang quickly nodded in agreement and said respectfully, "It is already getting late, old sir. In that case, my son and I will not disturb your rest."

If your first impression is unfavorable, then do not expect Jiang Ziya to pass on his skills to you; it is likely that from now on, he will not show you any kindness at all

Lu Chuan looked up at Jiang Ziya and suddenly knelt down before him

At this point, he paused and sighed

Jiang Ziya looked at the young man before him and said with a smile, "So, what brings you to seek me out in the late hours?"

Originally, he thought that even if he could not become a disciple of Jiang Ziya, he could at least learn some skills from him. However, after encountering a setback today, he realized that he had been overly optimistic in his previous thoughts

Lu Chuan reluctantly uttered a sound of "mm"

Lu Chuan said somewhat unwillingly: "Since you neither blame me for eavesdropping unintentionally nor doubt my sincerity, why not accept me as your disciple, fulfilling my desire to learn and repay your kindness?"

Is it just like this

Jiang Ziya said: "Moreover, although there is some connection between you and me, it is too superficial"

Chuan'er, Chuan'er...

Lu Chuan glanced back at Jiang Ziya's courtyard, the cool wind rustling around him, and he couldn't help but feel a sense of shared sorrow

Lu Chuan murmured, this was quite a blow to him

That is why

I never expected...

Lu Liang glanced at him and said, "It seems you haven't succeeded in your worship, have you?"

However, Jiang Ziya now says that the fate is too shallow, which is truly ... ...

Ah?

Jiang Ziya waved his hand and smiled, saying: "I quite like this child from Luchuan, it's just a pity..."

Please speak plainly, sir

He studied the Dao at Kunlun. Although he has not yet attained immortality, his hearing and vision are naturally much superior to that of ordinary people

Therefore, when Lu Chuan arrived at the door, he had already heard footsteps, but he did not know who it was, so he did not reveal it.

Jiang Ziya slowly said: "There are two reasons"

He stood up to straighten his clothes, adjusted his breathing, and Lu Chuan made an effort to gradually calm his restless heart.

He hurriedly helped the dazed Lu Chuan up and smiled apologetically at Jiang Ziya, saying: "Mr. Jiang, I sincerely apologize. This young man has come to trouble you again."

However, if he truly finds himself at a dead end, then seeking immortality would not be a bad final destination

... ...

Outside the courtyard gate, Lu Chuan was first taken aback by Jiang Ziya's words, and then he realized that he had been discovered by others

Why

Lu Chuan's smile gradually froze on his face, and in an instant, he felt as if he had fallen into an ice cellar, his entire being enveloped in a chilling coldness

Moreover, the world is about to descend into chaos, and if you do not possess the skills to secure your own livelihood, your own life will be in jeopardy, yet you still think about marrying a wife

Father, I am still young and do not wish to marry for the time being

This is akin to the saying: the greater the hope, the greater the disappointment

Upon seeing him, Jiang Ziya smiled: "So it is you, Lu... Xiaochuan, how are you? Were you able to hear clearly while eavesdropping by the wall?"

What is wrong with you, you little rascal? You were just fine during dinner, yet now you look like a frostbitten eggplant.

Lu Chuan said: "Is it possible that the gentleman... is dissatisfied with my insufficient sincerity in seeking to become his disciple?"

I see now.

Call!

Ah, what is it? You are not young anymore; it is time for you to get married. Look, the Third Young Master, who is the same age as you, has already gotten married

Get up!

He does not wish to get married at this time

Yes, yes, yes

Jiang Ziya shook his head again and said, "It is not for this reason either"

Lu Liang supported the somewhat dazed Lu Chuan by the arm, turned around, and walked out the door, a habitual smile lingering on his face

Jiang Ziya nodded with a smile

After taking a deep breath, Lu Chuan finally entered the courtyard

Sir, please take note! Lu Chuan said

After stepping out, Lu Liang's smile immediately vanished. He glanced at Lu Chuan, then turned back to look at the courtyard behind him and said, "By the way, what were you doing at Mr. Jiang's place?"

Lu Liang suddenly burst into laughter, somewhat gleeful at the misfortune of others

After bowing down, one does not rise from the ground

One reason is due to the ties of a past life, making him somewhat unaccustomed and not quite adapted to such an early marriage

This is correct

If we were to discuss the best choice among these two schools of thought, there is no doubt that it is the teaching of the Primordial Supreme Being. After all, although they inflicted a thousand injuries on the enemy while suffering eight hundred losses themselves in the end, they ultimately emerged victorious

He also wants to see what the person outside the door really intends to do

Lu Chuan knelt down and said sincerely: "Today, I, Lu Chuan, wish to sincerely take you as my teacher. Firstly, I want to learn some skills, and secondly, I wish to serve you in your daily life to repay the kindness you have shown me in opening my spiritual understanding. I ask for your approval."

Luchuan, although you possess the innate qualities for cultivation, I, myself, am also lacking in talent and knowledge, and cannot teach you; this is one reason.

Jiang Ziya sighed and advised: "You need not lose heart, for in this vast world, there are many extraordinary individuals and talents."

At this moment, he feels that this is exactly like going for an interview, where the first impression is extremely important

The old man has indeed two disciples, but they are both elsewhere and not you. This is the second reason, thus the old man truly cannot accept you as a disciple

"Little brat, I have already said that even the Third Young Master, who is the same size as you, has gotten married. Anyway, you don't need to worry about this matter; leave everything to Father, and he will arrange it for you."

However ... ...

Moments later, Jiang Ziya sighed, and Lu Chuan, with a look of joy, raised his head, only to see Jiang Ziya shaking his head

Even Jiang Ziya was slightly taken aback by this kneel, and hurriedly said: "Why are you kneeling before me? Quickly get up..."

Jiang Ziya, after listening, was suddenly enlightened. He looked at the prostrate youth but remained silent for a long time, only continuing to calculate with his hands.

Western teachings

No trouble, no trouble

Lu Chuan steadied his mind and said softly, "Mr. Jiang, is there really no chance for me at all?"

Lu Chuan glanced at Lu Liang, is this really his own father

Jiang Ziya watched the two leave, then looked up at the star-filled night sky, letting out a sigh of melancholy

Lu Chuan then recalled that in ancient times, marriages were often arranged at a very young age, with individuals getting married in their early teens.

Luchuan Road: "I seek to become a disciple!"

Lu Chuan became anxious and hurriedly said: "Sir, are you blaming me for eavesdropping on the conversation just now? If so, I am willing to bow and apologize until you are no longer angry."

Next are the teachings of Exposition and Interception

Although you have no master-disciple relationship with me, if your heart is sincere and your will is strong, you will surely encounter a wise teacher in the future

Although there was a hint of regret in Jiang Ziya's eyes, he shook his head firmly

Lu Chuan's eyes widened in astonishment

"Esteemed elder, I am aware that you are a remarkable individual from Kunlun, possessing extraordinary skills, and are certainly not an ordinary person"

Eh?

Lu Chuan laughed and said: "Once you are well, your father has been thinking about arranging a marriage for you in the next couple of days. What will happen to the Lu family's lineage if you become a nun?"

Before coming here, he had high hopes for Jiang Ziya, and upon waking up, he saw Jiang Ziya who helped him gain insight. One must wonder how profound this fate must be

It is too ironic

At this moment, Lu Liang's voice came from outside the door. After seeing Lu Chuan in the courtyard, he ran in and said: "What are you doing here?"
