Chapter 370 Not for Ascension

Chapter 370 Not for Ascension
"I don't care. You have to help me fight tomorrow anyway!" Yu Qiuer simply started to act tough.

"They have a lot of good stuff in their hands! Uncle, don't you want to win some back in an honest way?"

Pan Yingying touched her chin, this was a good idea.

"Okay, let's go meet your new friend tomorrow."

Since his wife had spoken, Yu Chaosheng certainly had no room to refuse, "Okay, let's go check it out tomorrow, and if it doesn't work, we'll ask for help!"

After getting Pan Yingying's approval, Yu Qiuer was finally satisfied. After eating the barbecue, she took Huihui back to her tent.

Yu Chun'er and Wang Xue'er haven't come back yet, probably still researching new pills in the alchemy room. Yu Qiu'er didn't wait for them, she washed up and went to bed to practice.

……

……

The next morning, Yu Qiuer went to the military camp canteen to bring two breakfasts and went to the courtyard where Taoist Hengyu lived.

The little girl had two small bells tied to her braids, which jingled when she walked, and it made people feel happy just to hear them.

Huihui also had a bell hanging around her neck, which jumped along with her.

Taoist Master Hengyu came out from the house and asked, "Why are you here so early today?"

Yu Qiuer showed him the food box in her hand and said, "I brought you breakfast. You don't have to thank me too much!"

Since the little girl Jin, the Taoist Master Hengyu, had brought the food box, he didn't feel comfortable saying that he had been fasting for many years and didn't need to eat.

After all, this is the little girl's intention, and it's hard to refuse.

It’s definitely not because he wants to eat.

An old man and a young man set up breakfast in the pavilion. The two people and the wolf solved the breakfast problem. Yu Qiuer raised her hand to check the time on her watch. "It's only nine o'clock now. My aunt must not have woken up yet. Let's wait a while."

Daoist Master Hengyu noticed the watch on her hand and asked, "What is this?"

Yu Qiuer took off her watch and handed it to him, introducing it to him enthusiastically, "This is a watch, used to tell time."

"Look, this is the hour hand..."

"This is the minute hand..."

"This is the second hand..."

Taoist Master Hengyu looked at the little thing and found it more and more novel. "Is this made by you Chinese?"

Yu Qiuer nodded, "Yeah, that's amazing, right?"

Hengyu hummed, "A mere mortal can make such an exquisite thing, he can indeed be called a skilled craftsman."

Yu Qiuer took out a new watch from her storage ring. "That one is my old one. This new one is for you. You can use it to tell time in the future."

Daoist Master Hengyu was stunned for a moment, "Give it to me?"

Yu Qiuer put the watch in his hand and said, "Yes, I give it to you. We are friends."

"Isn't it normal for friends to give each other gifts?"

Taoist Master Hengyu looked at the black watch in his hand, felt his heart warmed, and couldn't help laughing.

This was the first time someone gave him a gift without any purpose or utilitarianism.

In the past, the younger generations in the family gave him gifts only to get something of greater value from him.

Unlike the little girl in front of him, who was willing to give him such a delicate thing just because they were friends.

You know, the piece in the little girl's hand is already very old.

If Yu Qiuer knew what Taoist Hengyu was thinking, she would definitely tell him that the old watch in her hand was a birthday gift given to her by her uncle and aunt when she was 13 years old. She had worn it for several years and of course it looked old.

But this old-looking watch is very commemorative, so she wears it on her wrist every day.

The two chatted for a while about all sorts of things. Yu Qiuer talked about how many delicious foods there were in China, and Daoist Master Hengyu told her about the customs and practices of Lingxi Continent. "We don't have an emperor over there. Anyway, whoever has the bigger fist has the right words."

Yu Qiu'er didn't understand, "Won't that be a mess?"

Taoist Master Hengyu shook his head, "It won't be a mess. You can also think of the noble families and sects as small countries one by one."

"Everyone does their own thing and no one interferes with anyone else."

Yu Qiuer suddenly realized, "What about the people over there? How are they living?"

Taoist Master Hengyu thought about it and found that he had no impression of this matter at all. Perhaps he had never cared about how the mortals in Lingxi Continent lived.

"I don't know." He became a disciple of his master at a very young age and has stayed in the sect for many years. When he went out for training, he went to various secret realms. It can be said that he has been focusing on training all these years.

Yu Qiu'er was puzzled, "How could you not know? There are no common people under your sect's rule?"

Taoist Master Hengyu turned his face away in embarrassment.

Don't ask, little girl. It's impolite to ask again.

He coughed lightly, "So how are the people of China doing?"

Taoist Master Hengyu threw the question back to Yu Qiuer.

Speaking of this, Yu Qiuer became excited.

She straightened her back and cleared her throat.

"The people of China live a prosperous life. Every household has surplus food and money in their savings. Everyone, young or old, male or female, can study."

"Although we have just started cultivating immortals, we are not like you who insist on cultivating until we ascend to heaven."

"We just hope that we can live longer so that we can have a few more good years."

Taoist Master Hengyu was extremely surprised, "You are cultivating immortals not for the purpose of ascending to heaven?"

Yu Qiuer glanced at him and said, "Of course not. Who would want to ascend to heaven for no reason? If I go up there, I won't have any family or friends, and I won't even be able to play mahjong."

"Anyway, few of our generation really want to ascend."

Unless everyone has ascended, then they will consider practicing to ascend, so that their relatives and friends will still be there and they can live their lives as usual.

Taoist Master Hengyu just found it outrageous. How could he not want to ascend to heaven for such a weird reason?
How bizarre! He had lived for more than 2000 years, and this was the first time he had heard a monk say this.

When he wanted to ask something, Pan Yingying and Yu Chaosheng came with Batian and Baomei.

"Uncle and aunt! Brother Batian! Sister Bao!" Yu Qiuer ran over excitedly, "Come on, come on, we're waiting for you!"

The family of four was welcomed into the courtyard. Facing the old face of Taoist Hengyu, Pan Yingying smiled and said, "Hello, old gentleman."

Taoist Master Hengyu smiled back, "Hello, are you Qiu girl's uncle and aunt?"

Pan Yingying nodded, "She made a fuss for a long time last night and insisted that we play mahjong."

Yu Chaosheng raised his lips and said, "This girl knows that we won the first place in the National Mahjong Competition three years ago, but she still wants us to make a fool of ourselves."

Daoist Master Hengyu: ...

You better be really humble.

As soon as you see the couple’s posture, you can tell they are mahjong masters.

Taoist Master Hengyu quickly went to the other side to call for help.

Immortal Master Piao Miao was afraid that this brainless junior fellow would call out his name, so he hurried out of the house.

"Did the little girl really call someone over?" he asked knowingly.

Taoist Master Hengyu lowered his voice and said, "I heard that he won the first place in the national mahjong competition. He sounds very impressive."

Immortal Piao Miao nodded and said, "Let's go and meet them."
