Siheyuan: Banggeng and I are classmates

"Little uncle?"

When the Taoist priest heard Li Muhua, this little brat, claiming to be his junior master, he couldn't help but murmur softly, and then a look of doubt flashed in his eyes. He looked Li Muhua up and down, and then immediately reacted and shouted:

"Are you the junior uncle that the headmaster hasn't accepted yet?"

Although Li Muhua had not yet entered the mountain gate, the news had actually already spread in the temple. However, except Xuyi and Daoshou, no one else had seen the true face of this junior master uncle.

But they also knew that this young master was still a child, so at this moment the Taoist priest naturally no longer doubted Li Muhua's identity.

Seeing the Taoist's behavior, Li Muhua still put his hands behind his back, looked very old-fashioned, and glanced at him sideways.

"You have no respect for your elders. I don't know how Xu Yi taught you normally!"

"Why don't you let him come to see me?"

Seeing that Li Muhua was picking on him, the Taoist priest immediately bowed and said, "Disciple Daojian greets Junior Master Uncle. I have never had the honor of meeting you in person before, so I was unable to recognize your identity in time. I hope you won't blame me!"

"No thanks, no thanks!" Li Muhua was secretly pleased to see him salute her, but she still looked impatient. She waved her hand and continued:

"Just go and ask Taoist Xuyi to come see me. Don't waste my time. After I finish talking to him, I have to rush home to eat!"

Dao Jian bowed and said, "Little Master, you are a member of our temple, so you can come in anytime. How about I take you to see the Master?"

Li Muhua squinted his eyes, knowing that he didn't dare to call Taoist Xuyi, so he let himself into the temple directly. He couldn't help laughing in his heart, but nodded anyway, not wanting to make things difficult for him and waste his time.

"Okay, then take me to see him!"

"Uncle Junior Master, please——"

As he spoke, Daojian led the way for Li Muhua, secretly glancing behind him from time to time. He felt relieved when he saw that Li Muhua didn't say anything else.

This is not the junior master uncle, this is clearly the little ancestor!

He was a man with a bad temper. He even called his master by his name or even called him old man.

However, he heard that the headmaster attached great importance to this young disciple who had not yet entered the sect. Yesterday, he had asked all the disciples to go to the hospitals in the city of Sijiu to ask one by one, determined to find his whereabouts.

As a result, this junior master came to my door himself today. It seems that he was found!

Knowing the attitude of the headmaster and having witnessed how difficult it was to get along with Li Muhua, Daojian was so respectful to him.

The two of them walked along the way, and soon they passed the Qiu Zu Temple, which they had visited the deepest part of the last time, and arrived in front of Yunji Mountain House.

Seeing the wooden door open, Dao Jian stopped at the door and did not enter. Li Muhua raised her leg to go in, but Dao Jian stopped her hurriedly and shouted, "Master, inside the temple——"

At this point, Dao Jian was speechless, because he really didn't know how to address Li Muhua, so he could only shout: "Master Junior from the temple wants to see you!"

Without waiting for a response from inside, Li Muhua impatiently pushed away Dao Jian's hand that was blocking the door, and then strode in.

"What do you mean by asking for a meeting or not? I'm here to cause trouble today! And I'm asking for a meeting!"

"Uncle Junior Master, you can't——"

Before Dao Jian could finish, a voice came from inside: "It's okay, Dao Jian, you can leave first!"

"Yes!"

Li Muhua then walked into the hall, and saw dozens of cushions neatly placed on the ground. Taoist master Xu Yi was sitting cross-legged in the first seat in the front.

He looked up at him with a smile on his face, and said with a wise look:

"My little disciple, I have been waiting for you for a long time! I didn't expect you to be so slow."

"Humph!"

Li Muhua snorted lightly, then walked to Xu Yi, found a cushion and sat down with his legs spread out.

"Since you, old man, have predicted that I would come, why didn't you let the Taoist guards wait outside the gate? Instead, you let a Taoist who doesn't know me stop me from entering the mountain gate?"

"Daojian is very intelligent, and is the best among the three generations of disciples in the temple, so I wanted to let him see--"

Before Xu Yi finished speaking, Li Muhua looked around, waved his hand and said, "Old Taoist priest, there are only two of us here, so don't tell me these nonsense!"

"You didn't expect me to come at all. If you didn't guess it, then you didn't guess it. There's no shame in that!"

"My little disciple, it's fine for you to think so. I have nothing to say." Xu Yi lowered his brows and said with a look of unwillingness to defend himself, and then asked:

"Then my little disciple, did you come here this time because you have realized something and want to become my disciple in advance?"

Li Muhua shook her head.

"You're asking even though you already know the answer. I'm here because of you sending a disciple to my house, old Taoist priest. We agreed to hold the temple fair next year. After the fair, the result of the bet will determine whether I can enter the mountain gate."

"Before this, I just wanted to be an ordinary child. I didn't want to be pointed at by others all day long, saying that I was a god descended from heaven or a reincarnated immortal. They all treated me as Tang Monk and spread nonsense like eating a bite of my flesh could extend your life by ten years."

Taoist Master Xuyi frowned slightly after hearing this, but after thinking about it, he felt that there was some truth in it. After all, Li Muhua was still a child and didn't even have the basic ability to protect himself. If he really portrayed himself to be like a god descending to earth, he might end up hurting him.

After figuring out the key points, Taoist Xu Yi looked at Li Muhua with even more joy. He didn't expect that Li Muhua, who was so young, could see through the problem that he had not noticed at the moment.

He can also resist the temptation of being sought after by the world. He has great wisdom and can resist the great temptations of the world. It seems that he is really a natural born monk.

Thinking of this, Taoist Xu Yi nodded and agreed: "Okay, since you said so, then I will agree to it!"

Unexpectedly, Taoist Xu Yi would agree so readily. Li Muhua couldn't help but look at him in surprise, but remembering his other purpose, he continued to ask:

"Old Taoist priest, does Taoism have the concept of cause and effect?"

When Taoist Master Xu Yi saw that Li Muhua was talking about Taoism and asking about the meaning of Taoism, he was delighted, but he still shook his head calmly.

"The theory of karma is a minor doctrine in Buddhism. Its theory affects future generations, which is too illusory and unreasonable. People in future generations do not remember their past lives and should not be implicated by their past lives. Even if they are implicated, they will not be able to educate people if they do not remember their past lives! That is why it is a minor doctrine."

"We in Taoism believe in the great way of bearing responsibility, and we emphasize that blessings and disasters come from no door, but only from people themselves. If there is any responsibility left after death, it will bring disaster to your descendants, and you will be punished in this life!"

After hearing this, Li Muhua nodded thoughtfully.

"That means there is a law of cause and effect in both, but one holds the debt accountable in the next life, and the debtor suffers for generations until the debt is paid, while the other holds the debt accountable only in this life, and if the debt cannot be paid in this life, his descendants will pay it back until the debt is paid!"

Seeing that Li Muhua understood the true meaning of his words in just a moment, Taoist Xu Yi couldn't help but raise his hand and stroke his white beard, nodding with satisfaction.

You are worthy of being my destined person!

As expected, he has extraordinary understanding!
