Chapter 35 Top Teachers
1906 AD.
Although the fight that broke out suddenly last night almost devastated the entire Wu residence, fortunately, there were not many casualties.
The main reason was that Master Wu was quick-witted.
As soon as Zhao Yan arrived, he led all the servants and residents of the manor and ran away. Even the accountant carried his abacus and ran as fast as he could.
Thanks to this, after daybreak, the group of seekers still received the agreed-upon reward.
The silver was piled on the surviving stone table in the courtyard, its whiteness dazzling in the morning light.
There was also a small mountain of French red sandstone, crystal clear and in excellent condition.
Looking at the mountain of silver in his hand, Gao Haoguang couldn't help but sigh:
"This Master Wu is truly an honest and kind man."
"We almost demolished his house, yet he remained so honest and trustworthy."
Upon hearing this, everyone fell silent.
Especially the three brothers from the Laoshan Dharma Assembly and the Five Elements Sect looked Gao Haoguang and Xia Chuan up and down, completely puzzled:
The disciples under the command of the Three Truths are so powerful.
How come I've never heard of this before?
With respect and reverence, the three of them shared half of their earnings with Sanzhen.
After thanking them in person, he parted ways with Xia Chuan and the others.
Before Gao Haoguang could react, the pile of silver in front of him had grown even higher.
He stared blankly at the three people's retreating figures—
After they bowed in thanks, they turned and left with light steps, as if they had unloaded a heavy burden.
"This...this is too much trouble!"
Gao Haoguang was polite in words, but his hands were already gathering the silver in front of him, his eyes crinkling with a smile:
"Wow, this is a winning hand!"
Then, he turned to look at the young man in the courtyard who was still wearing a large hat and was quietly tidying up his red umbrella.
Last night, before he and his senior brother arrived, it was this guy who desperately held Zhao Yan back.
If he hadn't delayed them, by the time they arrived, Master and the young lady would probably already be...
From any perspective, he was Sanzhen's benefactor.
Gao Haoguang pointed to the pile of silver and waved his hand generously at Haishan:
"Big Head, what about you?"
Hai Shan, behind the mask, stared at Gao Haoguang in disbelief.
what?
Do I have to pay protection money too?
Upon hearing this, Xia Chuan hurriedly stepped forward and angrily slapped the gray dog's head.
He bowed to Hai Shan and explained:
"He means that he doesn't know how much compensation would be appropriate for you."
"Thanks to your delay last night, my fellow disciples and I were able to arrive."
"It would be only right to give you the entire reward."
Hai Shan shook his head, dusted off the flowers in his hand, tucked them back behind his back, and said calmly:
"Big Head doesn't want any payment."
Gao Haoguang was taken aback, and lowered the hand that was rubbing the back of his head:
"What do you want?"
"This, this..."
Looking at Xia Chuan and Gao Haoguang in front of him, Hai Shan suddenly felt a little embarrassed.
A shy voice, typical of young people, came from behind the large-headed mask:
"Big Head thinks you three are really awesome."
"Could I... come with you?"
Xia Chuan and Gao Haoguang exchanged a glance.
Seeing that the two remained silent, Hai Shan became somewhat anxious and quickly added:
"Big Head can pay protection money."
"As long as you provide meals..."
Before he could finish speaking, Hai Shan felt a sudden weightlessness, his feet left the ground, and his vision spun around him.
"Hey hey hey hey, what are you doing?!"
Gao Haoguang and Xia Chuan raised the big head high one after the other and ran towards Ma Chao with joy on their faces.
"Master! I've brought someone back with me!"
Ma Chao: ? ? ?
With the newly joined Da Tou on their back, and riding on a scroll crafted by Jiang Mingzi, the group took to the air and embarked on their journey back to the Third Dharma Palace of the Three Truths.
High in the sky, Hai Shan lay on the edge of the scroll.
Peeking out at the rapidly receding mountains and rivers below, I could hardly believe it.
"So, you were brought here by this scroll?"
Gao Haoguang nodded.
"And then this scroll will take you to different places to find different Nirvana corpses?"
Gao Haoguang nodded.
"Finally... you three were actually able to contact your ancestor from a thousand years ago?"
That Immortal Lord of All Dharmas, Jiang Mingzi? ! ! "
"He even crafted this scroll himself?"
Gao Haoguang nodded again.
Hai Shan pulled his head back, sat cross-legged on the scroll, and felt extremely envious.
I wonder what kind of person that first seeker of the Dharma, who was unparalleled throughout history, was like...
The Three Realms are truly amazing.
It was definitely the right thing to shamelessly follow along.
He looked down at the scroll at his feet, secretly envious:
Why doesn't my Penglai have such a fun magical artifact?
Even just being able to see the ancestors of the past would be fine.
Gao Haoguang looked at Haishan, wondering to himself.
Why would anyone be so surprised to hear the name "Turtle Immortal Lord"?
He was utterly baffled by Jiang Mingzi's actions after they met.
The tortoise is here, but where is the immortal lord?
Gao Haoguang shook his head, dismissing these thoughts, and casually said to Haishan:
"By the way, why are you still wearing that big headband? Aren't you hot?"
He was actually quite curious about what the bottom of the big head would look like.
Upon hearing this, Big Head became wary and protected his hood with both hands:
"You want Big Head to take off his hood?"
Before Gao Haoguang could answer, Hai Shan hesitated for a moment and reached out to touch the top of his head.
"But it is indeed a bit hot, so it's good to get some fresh air."
After saying that, he reached out and took off his hood.
Everyone's curious gazes turned to him.
The morning light fell on the boy's face, revealing a delicate, baby-faced features.
With fair skin, delicate features, and a soft, androgynous beauty, her eyes and brows exude a captivating charm.
He had a straight nose, slightly pursed lips, and a touch of baby fat on his cheeks.
What's most striking is his heterochromatic eyes.
His left eye was as clear as river water, with a faint sky blue hue; his right eye was like deep red amber, calm and profound.
"Wow!!!!"
The crowd reacted strongly, staring at Haishan in astonishment.
Who would have thought that beneath that big head was such a handsome young man?
Facing the gazes of the crowd, Hai Shan felt a little embarrassed, her face flushed slightly, and she lowered her eyelashes:
"I am Hai Shan, and I greet the Three True Ones."
"He is a disciple of Penglai Island."
Looking at Hai Shan's delicate face, Gao Haoguang blushed for some reason and turned his head away, pretending to look at the scenery.
This seascape is truly beautiful.
Xia Chuan raised an eyebrow, his tone tinged with surprise:
"It's actually the legendary Penglai Island?"
Gao Haoguang looked at his senior brother curiously: "Senior brother, you know?"
Most of what he had read were just rumors from the mortal world.
In those legends, Penglai is the abode of immortals, with palaces of gold and silver, everything in it is white, and there is an elixir of immortality.
But they didn't know what Penglai Island in the world of supernatural powers looked like.
Xia Chuan nodded:
"Penglai is one of the top sects in the world of seeking the Dharma."
"The only ones who can truly overpower them are probably the Nine Realms Sect, which is widely recognized as the number one sect in the world."
He paused, then looked at the red umbrella behind Hai Shan:
"And most of the supernatural abilities of his disciples are related to time and life."
"In summary, it is the number one school of thought for prolonging life."
Upon hearing Xia Chuan's introduction, Gao Haoguang frequently glanced sideways, and even his gaze towards Hai Shan changed.
Hai Shan then picked it up with both hands, quite proudly, his chin slightly raised.
He gave a "That's right" look.
Seeing his smug look, Gao Haoguang wondered what had gotten into him.
He crossed his arms, raised his chin like him, and snorted.
Xia Chuan, too lazy to deal with these two childish brats, turned to Hai Shan:
"Xiao Hai, would you like to cultivate together?"
Hai Shan's expression suddenly became subtle.
He paused for a moment, then spoke in a low, cautious, and tentative tone, trying not to sound offensive:
"Actually, I wanted to ask this before."
"You three... how come you don't even possess the Central Divine Power?"
Upon hearing this, the atmosphere on the reel instantly froze.
Hai Shan's gaze fell on Gao Haoguang, his brows furrowing slightly:
"There's even a chakra inside that's mostly sealed off."
Finally, he looked at Xia Chuan, his brows furrowing deeper and deeper:
"As for this brother, I can't even sense the magic within you."
Hai Shan looked puzzled, but his voice was sincere and without a trace of malice:
"Is the practice of the Three Truths particularly special?"
"In that case, it seems like... you can't teach me."
The reel was quiet for a few seconds.
Xia Chuan laughed heartily, his voice shaking the heavens.
"No, that's not it. They used to cultivate under their master, so their cultivation level is still shallow."
Hai Shan tilted his head: "Then why did you say you'd take me on a cultivation journey?"
Xia Chuan's lips curled into a smile, his gaze deep and intense.
"Because a top-notch teacher recently came to Sanzhen."
Hai Shan's eyes lit up: "Oh? How top-notch is it?"
Xia Chuan looked at his palm, where two remnant souls could be vaguely seen slowly circulating.
"Is this enough to satisfy a seeker of great supernatural powers?"
Hai Shan was dumbfounded, with only one thought in his mind:
Sanzhen is truly amazing!
Running away from home was definitely the right thing to do!
