Chapter 188 Asking for words
There is a mountain outside the town called Tiger Roar Mountain, and the Tiger Roar Castle's lair is on the top of the mountain.
Chopping the grass does not remove the roots, but the spring breeze blows and regenerates.
Evil must be eradicated completely!
Lu Bei decided to uproot the entire Huxiao Fort so as to leave no hidden dangers for Huwei Town.
Now that Cui Shenhu is dead, there must be no masters left on the mountain. They are probably all minions in the fifth realm of the mortal world, or leaders in the Vajra realm. There are probably not many masters in the Free Realm.
Three young boys and girls armed with swords rode donkeys slowly towards the outside of the town, their backs firm and handsome.
“Brother Lu, wait a moment!”
"Brother Lu, please stay!"
Just then, a hurried shout came from behind.
Lu Bei was puzzled and recognized the voice as Zhuang Buyi's.
What does he want to do now?
Jiang Nan frowned, "Your new friend?"
Lu Bei nodded, "You go ahead."
So he turned his donkey around and looked back at the person who was jogging towards him in confusion.
Zhuang Buyi ran over quickly, sweating and panting.
Lu Bei looked surprised, "Aren't you a master of spiritual travel? Why don't you fly?"
Zhuang Buyi waved his folding fan frantically, and said with a wry smile, "Brother Lu, you don't know, I promised Master not to casually display my magical powers in front of mortals."
"So, unless necessary, I can only be an ordinary storyteller or a wandering Taoist priest."
Lu Bei shook his head. “What a strange rule.”
Zhuang Buyi smiled, "Master wants me to be humble and calm, to be quiet and inactive, and not to change my mind just because I have achieved great accomplishments, and to be aloof from the world from now on."
Lu Bei suddenly realized and praised, "It's easy to know, but difficult to do. You are so low-key and humble despite your profound cultivation. It's really amazing."
Zhuang Buyi smiled bitterly, "I can't be so high-profile. I came from the Middle-earth Shenzhou, and I know that there are always higher mountains than higher ones. The world is so big, and there are many hidden dragons. It's better to be harmonious."
Lu Bei nodded and asked curiously, "Brother Zhuang, what do you want to talk to me about?"
Zhuang Buyi was stunned for a moment, then smiled sheepishly, rubbing his hands together and asking tentatively, "Um, Brother Lu, could you give me another character? I want to go back and have my master take a look at it."
"Send a calligraphy?" Lu Bei was immediately surprised.
Zhuang Buyi smiled awkwardly and said, "Yes, my cultivation is still shallow, and I'm afraid I've made a mistake. I want Master to see if you are the new Emperor Star."
Lu Bei frowned and complained, "That's a bit snobbish, isn't it? Doesn't it mean that if I'm not a rising star, I'm not worthy of making friends with you?"
Zhuang Buyi said hurriedly, "Brother Lu, please don't misunderstand me. I've said this before. When I heard about your name and character in the martial arts world, I wanted to make friends with you. But when I later guessed that you were an Emperor Star, I became even more supportive and wanted to help you rise to prominence!"
"I guess this is what my master thinks too," Zhuang Buyi said with a smile.
Lu Bei was conflicted. "But, after all, we just met. Isn't it a bit inappropriate for you to directly ask for my signature?"
Zhuang Buyi smiled bitterly and nodded, "It's indeed inappropriate."
Lu Bei added, "After all, you Taoists have unpredictable methods. Who knows if you can use my calligraphy to do something bad to me?"
Zhuang Buyi was extremely anxious and immediately raised his finger to swear seriously, "Brother Lu, don't worry. I, Zhuang Buyi, really only asked for a fortune telling from Master. I will never dare to do anything that would harm Brother Lu in the future."
"Otherwise, you will be struck by lightning and your soul will be destroyed!"
As he spoke, an inexplicable Daoist aura lingered on his raised sword fingers, and a wisp of blood essence was forced out, accompanied by divine light, rushing straight into the sky and quickly disappearing into the sky.
Lu Bei was stunned in surprise.
Because he knew that people who practice Taoism generally do not swear oaths casually, because they must abide by their oaths, otherwise they will suffer divine punishment. At the very least, their Taoism heart will collapse, and at the worst, they will really be struck by the divine thunder of the Great Dao.
Zhuang Buyi said with a serious face, "Brother Lu, I have sworn an oath that if I do anything against you in the future, I will be struck by lightning from heaven!"
"Now, can you trust me?"
Lu Bei blinked, looking helpless, "I was just complaining, you swore so quickly."
Zhuang Buyi smiled bitterly.
Lu Bei got off the donkey and said impatiently, "Speak now, what do you want to write?"
Zhuang Buyi clasped his fists in thanks, "Brother Lu is truly kind and righteous. Thank you very much."
"You don't need any special words, just write the words that are on your mind right now."
Lu Bei stretched out his hand, "Where's the pen?"
Zhuang Buyi said "oh" and immediately searched in his sleeve.
He seemed to have a lot of things hidden in his sleeves, and he actually took out a complete set of pens, ink, paper and inkstone.
Finally, he even took out a table from his sleeve.
Lu Bei was stunned on the spot and asked tentatively, "Is this called the Universe in the Sleeve?"
Zhuang Buyi smiled and said, "Brother Lu is indeed knowledgeable and experienced. He is just like our Taoist little magical power, the world in his sleeve."
"It's not very useful, it's just for storing things," Zhuang Buyi said with a smile.
Lu Bei blinked, "You really managed to pretend!"
"So can it even hold mountains, rivers, and lakes?"
Zhuang Buyi was stunned. "That would require the power of a celestial being. My skills are still rudimentary, so I can only carry small things now."
Zhuang Buyi set the table, spread out the rice paper, and handed the ink brush to Lu Bei, "Brother Lu, please."
Lu Bei took the brush and reminded him, "We agreed to only write one word."
Zhuang Buyi smiled and said, "Yes, just write the word that you are thinking of at the moment."
Lu Bei thought for a second, and then without hesitation, he wrote on the table with a graceful and elegant posture, full of momentum.
Done in one go, clean and neat.
After finishing, he handed the pen to Zhuang Buyi and clapped his hands confidently, "It's done."
Zhuang Buyi's smile froze, and he stared blankly at the crooked yet slightly elegant large characters.
"this."
He muttered dully, "Brother Lu, excuse me, what are you writing?"
"Great!" Lu Bei smiled faintly and gave a thumbs up, looking confident.
Zhuang Buyi's eyes suddenly widened, with a look of disbelief.
He looked at Lu Bei, moved his lips, and seemed to be about to say something.
Lu Bei smiled faintly, waiting for praise, "How's the writing?"
Zhuang Buyi forced a smile and nodded, but in his heart he complained, "This handwriting is really ugly."
But he looked hesitant, wondering if it would be inappropriate to give this word to his master.
Mentioning the word "fierce" in front of a Divine Tribulation Realm expert? Isn't that a bit offensive?
Zhuang Buyi glanced awkwardly at the scribbled and crooked pattern on the table, and could barely make out the word "猛".
Finally, he took a deep breath and said seriously, "Brother Lu, could you please change the word?"
Lu Bei was about to turn around and leave, but when he heard this request, his eyes widened, "Didn't we agree on a single word? Why are you pushing it further?"
Zhuang Buyi was on the verge of tears, "Brother Lu, the main thing is that the word you used is really a bit inappropriate."
Lu Bei's eyes lit up, he rolled up his sleeves and asked tentatively, "Why, do you think I'm not strong among my peers?"
"How about you come over and spar with me?"
Zhuang Buyi waved his hands hurriedly, "Oh, Brother Lu, you're joking. I didn't mean that."
He said awkwardly, "I'm mainly worried that the word 'fierce' might offend Master."
