Chapter 271: With Great Ability Comes Great Responsibility
If you don’t say Ximen Chuimaopi is absolutely intelligent, he knew the method and turned to get it done.
He hurriedly took back the women he had brought out, and did this thing as soon as he got home.
Not to mention, this kid is really charming. There were indeed a few who fell in love with him over time and didn’t leave.
Of course, this kid also kept a hand. The apparent wealth was indeed scattered by him, but he didn’t scatter some intangible assets.
That’s okay, after all, one can’t even lose the ability to eat, right?
As soon as he left, I regretted it a little. Damn it, this kid scattered everyone. I only found out afterwards that he hadn’t even touched many of the girls he brought me, and they were all young ladies.
I mean, although I wouldn’t directly order them to stay, I could at least take a look. Damn it, what if there was a suitable one? Hahahaha.
However, since Ximen Chuimaopi has already sent everyone away, Big Brother won’t bother with that turtle bastard anymore.
But to be honest, after cultivating immortality, the spiritual energy, after long-term cultivation and tempering, when it advances to a higher dimensional level, the perspective on the women of the world has already undergone earth-shattering changes. Even those women who are hot, beautiful, and graceful can hardly stir my heart anymore.
Because at this time, I have already transcended worldly aesthetic standards and am no longer attracted solely by appearance. The beauty of mortal women is just a fleeting cloud, disappearing in an instant. What can truly arouse my slightest attention is deeper inner qualities and spirituality.
Such women are rare in the world.
It’s not that Big Brother’s requirements have become higher, nor is it that it’s a must-have or that it’s optional.
This feeling is like a resonance at the soul energy level, where the two can be companions with transcendent souls, like two free and unfettered flying birds, shuttling through this rolling mortal world.
Along the way, I saw all the phenomena of the world and experienced countless beautiful sceneries. Whether it was the bustling traffic and neon lights in prosperous cities, or the green mountains and clear waters, and the birds singing and flowers fragrant in quiet villages.
Whether it was the majestic grandeur and lingering clouds among high mountains and ridges, or the sight of cattle and sheep when the grass is blown low on the vast grasslands. All can become the most beautiful scenery in each other’s eyes. Wandering freely within, feeling the hustle and bustle and tranquility of the mortal world, and savoring the joys and sorrows of life.
In this process, the simplest and most sincere joy of birth continuously remains.
With an unrestrained attitude of playing in the human world, becoming each other’s most reliable, most sincere good teacher and helpful friend, and soulmate in life and cultivation.
Cough cough cough, thinking about such things is enough. If I were to actually do it, then Laozi would have to spend a very, very long time helping her reach a very, very high level of enlightenment.
After all, in this world, there are really very few people as intelligent as me in cultivation, like a demon.
In the past, most people, whether male or female, old or young, were stuck in various appearances of cultivation, muddled for decades without even seeing that innate threshold.
As the saying goes, the Great Dao is without limit, and it cannot be spoken. What can be spoken is all description, and the Dao is self-evident. Using language to describe it can only be a very superficial interpretation.
Only after one’s realm has improved can one clearly understand the secrets that were previously incomprehensible. Otherwise, it is like heavenly scriptures.
Ximen Chuimaopi handled his own affairs, and then brought some good wine and dishes to seek my advice. Seeing how obedient he was, Big Brother, being very generous, took out a gourd of peanuts to drink, and specially rewarded him with ten.
He ate them all in two bites. Seeing me wanting more, he didn’t dare to say it directly, but kept pouring wine for me: “Come, Teacher, this is a specialty from my hometown, high-quality liquor that doesn’t give you a headache. No, it’s, it’s a ten-ingredient tonic wine brewed with my family’s ancestral secret recipe and special craftsmanship. Drinking one bowl is equivalent to eating the nutrition of five bowls of rice. Please have a few more cups.”
Hearing this, I rolled my eyes at him speechlessly. Damn it, he can really brag! He is indeed the clan leader of a noble family in the mortal world. His boasting sounds like the real thing.
However, I was not annoyed. After all, drinking alcohol is an entertainment method, and with a bit of bragging, it’s indeed more interesting to drink.
Seeing that besides talking nonsense, he showed no disrespect to me at all, I drank a glass of wine and said to him: “Since you are following me, you must abide by my rules. Are you willing or not?”
When I said this, Ximen Chuimaopi was so excited that he jumped to the sky, making a big hole in my tavern, damn it…
He fell down more than twenty minutes later, landing with a “thump” right in front of me, scaring me so much that I almost chanted a spell to give this bastard a quick end.
Fortunately, this guy is smart. With a “crack,” he knelt on the ground and kowtowed to me three times: “Teacher above, please accept my bow. Thank you for your compassion, Teacher. I will definitely remember your teachings.”
Hearing this, I quietly loosened my clenched fist and said with an unchanged expression: “Good, good, good. Get up.”
Ximen Chuimaopi sat down again, and I began to tell him the rules of following me:
“First, respect the teacher and value the Dao. You are not allowed to disrespect teachers and elders, meaning you must be respectful to Laozi, otherwise Laozi will kick you out.
Second, you must not act recklessly in the world. If you easily play with mortal women as you did before, Laozi will sever your mortal whip from your soul, preventing you from ever riding a horse again.
Third, if you follow me, whether you call me Master or Big Brother, I will accept some of your things. After receiving my things, you must transform yourself into a Vajra living Bodhisattva, treat all beings in the world kindly. If you dare to do evil and use these means to manipulate others, I will strike your spiritual soul, sever your spiritual root, suppress you in the Nine Netherworlds, and never allow you to escape for eternity.
Fourth, never regard mortal property as dirt once you have cultivation, and do not neglect its importance, because wealth itself is neither good nor bad. After cultivation, you should gather wealth more reasonably, to use it well to help sentient beings and relieve their suffering.
With great ability comes great responsibility. Keep this in mind and act accordingly.
Fifth, constantly step outside of yourself and put yourself in others’ shoes. Only then can you understand clearly. Do not have your own opinions, lest you be corrupted by demonic thoughts.”
Saying this, I paused, raised my hand, and gave Ximen Chuimaopi a big slap: “Slap!”
“I’ll just say these five rules for now. Others will be added later. Did you hear me, kid?”
Ximen Chuimaopi took a slap, but not only did he not resent it, he even smiled foolishly, nodding repeatedly like a chick pecking at rice.
Because, while I was talking to him, he was secretly taking peanuts from my plate.
Damn your sixth uncle and fourth grandmother! This turtle bastard, while I was distracted and seriously listening, he was secretly stealing my peanuts.
How could I not hit him?
