Chapter 107 The Unjust Death of a Little Peasant Girl 15

"What? Did I hear you right? You want to take my eldest granddaughter as your apprentice?"

"Aren't all Taoist priests men? Don't think that you can deceive my daughter just because I'm a country woman!"

A few days ago, Mrs. Ding had nightmares for several days in a row. She dreamed that she was being scolded by herself. Then she realized that the things she used to do were actually seen as trivial by the person being scolded.

It was so terrible and disgusting that I gradually changed my bad habit of speaking harshly and swearing.

But her loud voice was still there, and this time it rose higher, as if an invisible air wave was gushing out of her mouth, making the person opposite her turn pale and his muscles tremble.

This shout attracted the whole family. Boss Ding and others quickly pulled Shen Yuan over and stood in front of her and Old Lady Ding with a defensive and suspicious look on their faces.

Taoist Priest Hefeng finally recovered from the sonic attack. When he met their gazes that looked like they were looking at a flower boy, he was silent for a moment.

He has traveled all over the country for so many years, fought against evil spirits, slayed demons, and was misunderstood and distrusted, but being treated as a child trafficker... this is the first time.

His gaze drifted towards Fellow Daoist Ding, but he saw that the man who had seemed mysterious in front of him before was now firmly protected by his family, and looked very... innocent?

"Ahem - please don't misunderstand me, kindhearted person. I really have no ill intentions. I am Hefeng Zhenren from Lingyun Mountain. I met this young friend on the road before. Seeing that she was full of spiritual energy and was very suitable for practicing Taoism, I decided to take her in as my disciple."

"Hmm?" This was the half-believing and half-doubting voice of the adults. Boss Ding and others couldn't help but turn their heads to look at Chen Yuan. Isn't it just two eyes, a nose and a mouth?

He is also very thin and dark. Even though he is their own child, they cannot go against their conscience and call him cute. How can they see that he has such spirituality?

"Wow——" This was the envious voice of the little guys. They were the ones who were least suspicious of Taoist Hefeng among the people present.

My sister is so amazing, isn't it natural for a master to take her as his disciple? It's exactly the same story the old man at the entrance of the village told!

"Of course my granddaughter is smart." Old Mrs. Ding gave him a look that said "you have good taste." "But don't think we will hand the child over to you just because you say a few nice words."

"What kind of spirit mountain, what kind of immortal, I have never heard of it. I have lived forty or fifty years and have never seen a female Taoist priest. You rotten... Anyway, don't even think about deceiving me!"

I almost started swearing again, what a sin, luckily the old woman changed her mind quickly.

"No, no, no, you misunderstood my meaning." Taoist Hefeng wiped his forehead and said, "How can I bear to separate flesh and blood from flesh?"

"After getting your permission, I want to buy a house nearby and stay here to teach the child for a while."

His eyes fell on the children, and after a moment's hesitation, he added, "I will teach Ding... Xiao Cui how to read when the time comes. If you are interested, you can learn together."

Now Old Lady Ding and the others were even more surprised. In order to accept a disciple, this Taoist priest was willing to compromise like this. Could it be that his granddaughter/daughter/niece was really very talented?

The family's eyes immediately fell on Shen Yuan. They looked left and right. He looked very ordinary no matter how they looked at him.

"This..." Old Lady Ding hesitated, "Master...are there really female Taoist priests?"

"Of course." Taoist Hefeng saw the relaxation in her eyes and breathed a sigh of relief. "I have a total of 158 disciples in Lingyun Mountain, including three aunts and more than 20 sisters."

When Old Lady Ding heard that the Taoist temple was quite prosperous and saw that he was indeed an extraordinary person, her doubts were alleviated by about 70%.

But she still couldn't make a decision, so she asked again, "If Cui follows you to cultivate, will she not be able to get married in the future?"

Taoist Hefeng smiled and said, "Tao follows nature. We believe in following fate, so we don't have any rules."

However, among the brothers and sisters in the mountains, only a few pursued spiritual practice and started a family, so he did not mention this.

With her last bit of worry gone, Mrs. Ding was immediately delighted. No matter how you look at it, her family was getting a great deal!

She suppressed the urge to raise the corners of her mouth wildly, nodded modestly, and said, "We all see the sincerity of the Taoist priest, but this is a big deal after all, please allow us to discuss it."

"It's my duty, please." Taoist Hefeng silently exhaled a breath, feeling that accepting a disciple this time was more difficult than catching ghosts and monsters.

Boss Ding took her husband and children into the house to discuss the matter, leaving the children and him staring at each other in the yard.

Taoist Hefeng felt a little embarrassed by being stared at, and looked at the cold-faced girl: "Ding Dao... Xiao Cui, your family is discussing something about you, why don't you go in and express your opinion?"

After discussing all this, he already knew how powerful Fellow Daoist Ding was, so he subconsciously felt that she must be in a dominant position at home.

As for why she lived in an ordinary farm family and where she learned those advanced skills, it seemed that none of her family members knew.

He was not good at knowing these secrets and did not dare to pry into them easily.

"No need, they won't listen to me anyway." Shen Yuan said bluntly.

This is how it is in this era. Few elders will listen to the opinions of their younger generations, even if they are the ones involved.

"This..." Taoist Hefeng was suddenly worried. What if the Ding family disagreed? Wouldn't he have failed Taoist Ding's trust?

As if seeing through his worries, Shen Yuan curved his eyebrows and said, "Master, don't worry, they will agree."

"Yes, Taoist Priest Ya, grandpa and grandma will definitely agree!" In order to make him believe, Mu Tou nodded his little head vigorously.

Hu Zi also counted on his fingers and said: "Master, you don't accept the training, teach the craft, and teach reading. Only a fool would disagree!"

It is said that children see things clearly. The two little guys know their relatives very well. Although they don’t covet other people’s things, they would like to take advantage of such a bargain that comes right to their doorstep!

Taoist Priest Hefeng saw his own shadow in the black and white reflection of the two children's eyes. He felt as if he was being taken advantage of and suddenly felt like he was having a heart attack.

Fortunately, he quickly remembered that these were just superficial appearances. Daoyou Ding had promised that she would pay for the house and cover all his expenses in the future. He could also stay by her side and learn from each other.

He was just providing a cover, and I instantly felt relieved. I was not a sucker!

As expected by the kids, the Ding family had already made the decision in their hearts, and they were just pretending to discuss it.

Old Mrs. Ding quickly led everyone out and solemnly stated that she would entrust her eldest granddaughter to Taoist Hefeng.

Everyone present achieved their goals, and there was joy all over the place.
