He shook his head, and Bai Yu chuckled and turned to leave. He had seen real masters in this aspect before, although he hadn't seen them in action, but just from the confidence and sharpness in Liu Zhen's eyes, he could tell that he was a different story from the old man in front of him, who only knew how to bluff.
But that doesn't mean they don't have to work hard, these martial artists are also quite struggling, what can you do if not for making a living? Someone like him would wear out his tongue and still wouldn't earn much.
He wandered around the park like this, and before he knew it, it was already noon. He felt a little hungry at this time, so he found a small restaurant nearby and walked in. The restaurant's floor space was not large, but the business inside was exceptionally hot. At this time, it was not yet 12 o'clock, and there were already many people. These people sat together in threes and twos, laughing loudly and drinking wine, which was very relaxing and leisurely.
Bai Yu found a seat and sat down, soon after, an eighteen or nineteen-year-old girl came to his front, the girl smiled at Bai Yu: "Want something to eat?"
White Feather smiled politely, then ordered a small dish and also called for a bottle of beer. After finishing these orders, the girl first asked him to wait, and then walked towards the kitchen, presumably to prepare. In fact, relatively speaking, he still likes the life in the modern world, presumably because he has always lived here, having a sense of closeness to the real world.
The small store's speed was not slow, and in a short while the dishes were already served. Bai Yu smiled as he took them over, ready to start eating. However, at this moment, he suddenly thought of Li Xiao Feng who lived nearby, and after a moment's hesitation, he put down his chopsticks and pulled out his phone, which had not been used for a long time.
He dialed Li Xiaofeng's number and soon the phone was answered. The long-familiar voice also came through.
"Bai Yu, how come you're free now? It's been a week since we last contacted each other, are you doing alright now?"
"Fortunately, how is it now? Are you used to living there? What are you going to do next?"
Li Xiaofeng was taken aback for a moment. After a while, he said: "My family knows about my current situation and told me to hurry back home. They want me to find something to do at home and also mentioned that there are several places waiting for me to return for blind dates."
Bai Yu also thought of his own home upon hearing this. Although no one from home had called him during this period, he hadn't made any calls either because there were a lot of things going on. It seemed that next time the plot world returned, he would have to go back home for a visit.
Bai Yu let out a sigh and said, "Well, it's not like we can stay here forever either. I'll say it again, following me to cultivate is still better than finding some other decent job."
Li Xiaofeng responded with a "hmm" and said, "Although I'm leaving now, we must keep in touch often, don't forget about me after a long time."
"You won't," Bai Yu laughed and said, "Your appearance is etched in my memory, even if you turned to ashes I would still be able to recognize you. How could I possibly forget?"
"Alas, you hate me so much? Even if I were to be reduced to ashes, you would still recognize me."
The two of them burst out laughing at this point. After chatting and laughing for a while, Bai Yu said: "How about it? Let's go out for a bit, just to a place not far from your place, come on, the two of us will have a drink, this can be considered as seeing you off."
Bai Yu then told Li Xiao Feng the address and hung up the phone after telling him to hurry over.
Bai Yu was waiting for Li Xiaofeng's arrival while also ordering a few more dishes and opening several bottles of wine.
Li Xiaofeng's movements were quite quick, but after more than ten minutes of effort, he arrived at the place where Bai Yu was sitting and smiled as he approached. He came to a stop in front of Bai Yu.
Bai Yu looked at him and smiled: "Not bad, the speed is quite fast."
Li Xiaofeng smiled and said, "I knew it was you treating me to dinner, so of course the service should be faster. I couldn't wait to take advantage of you for a meal! Hmm, not bad, the dishes are quite sumptuous. But what I'm really looking forward to is that in the future when you're making money as a lawyer, you can take me to some high-end places and let me indulge a bit."
Bai Yu's heart skipped a beat when he heard this, and then he thought of that swindler Yun Qiao Shang Ren again. Although he was just a charlatan, he somehow had a family fortune of over 100 million. It can be seen that although people nowadays shout all day about opposing superstition, once something strange happens to themselves, they still absolutely believe in this so-called superstition.
This was an idea he didn't want to do before, but now it's come out again. Why don't I also become a divine stick, this promising career? However, although he had this idea, as a true cultivator, there were still many concerns.
First and foremost is cause and effect. Although cause and effect are very vague, they are still taboo for those who cultivate the Tao. In fact, every person in the world is tainted with cause and effect, and this thing is something that people cannot avoid. This kind of cause and effect will come together when a person dies, allowing them to repay their debts all at once.
This thing is very mysterious, if you want to explain it, it's really hard to explain clearly. However, if a cultivator is about to die or is interfered with by karma, then this karma will be completely transferred to the cultivator's body.
So for him, wanting to make money in this aspect must have a detailed plan and his own standards. Otherwise, in the process of doing business, he will inexplicably be tainted with karma, which is really not worth it.
Having thought of this, Bai Yu shook his head and changed the subject: "We'll have a chance to meet again in the future, but after you go back, you must quickly find a place to settle down. If not, what will happen to you in the future? Are you going to remain a bachelor forever?"
Li Xiaofeng burst out laughing and said, "Don't mention me, you're the same too! Ah, right, I've heard that people who cultivate Taoism are all monks who have left their families, just like Buddhist monks who follow the Vinaya and can't get married. Are you going to give up on finding someone after becoming an immortal?"
Bai Yu shook his head and said, "What you're saying is only a part of the teachings, I won't have so many taboos, in the future we can still get married and have children."
The lovers then chatted and laughed as they ate and drank, and when the meal was over, it was already past one o'clock. The two of them parted ways, both having things to do the next day. Li Xiaofeng was going back home tomorrow, while Bai Yu still had a trip to Kyoto to meet some influential figures in the world of cultivation.
Bai Yu actually also wants to know now, what kind of situation has the cultivation world become.
He returned to his rental house, and since it was only afternoon, he didn't have anything better to do so he opened up his computer and started playing games. Actually, online gaming wasn't that interesting for him anymore, mainly because the special effects in them were something he could also achieve himself. However, this was still a way to pass time, and even though it lacked excitement, it was still better than watching movie clips all day.
Time flies, and before he knew it, it was already late at night. Bai Yu stood up, stretched his waist, opened the window of his own home, took a deep breath, and felt that his originally depressed mood had some relief.
However, at this time he suddenly remembered the ghost den not far away, where he still had a ghost army left behind. Although with the growth of his strength, he actually felt that these ghost armies were becoming more and more useless, but just recently he discovered a good place, which could help these ghost classes improve their strength as long as they had time.
That's right, it was that ancient tomb full of evil spirits everywhere. The evil spirits were extremely harmful to the human body, but for these malevolent vengeful ghosts, they were a great tonic. At that time, when Bai Yu discovered that place, he had already had some subtle thoughts.
As his strength increases, the world of traversal will also change. It's possible that after a while, he'll upgrade to traversing small worlds, and the power system within those small worlds will be much stronger than in the Hengsha world. At that time, although his strength will also increase, the demons and monsters in the small worlds won't be pushovers either.
In the few TV dramas that can be considered as belonging to the small thousand worlds, those who are not good at dealing with these things will have an easier time if they have an army of zombies and ghosts. For example, the few zombies he currently has are all above the level of white-eyed zombies, and it should be enough to deal with various ghostly creatures in the small thousand world.
As he thought, Bai Yu went downstairs again and walked through the streets. He came to a blank wall.
The wall was smooth and unremarkable, but as I stood still not far from it, a strange wooden door slowly appeared. The door was pitch black, as if splashed with ink, and the little light that was originally present seemed to be absorbed by the door.
Bai Yu, however, was not surprised at all. He walked forward and slowly opened the door. As the door creaked open, a harsh, ear-piercing "creak" sound accompanied it, making one wonder if a normal person would have already been frightened out of their wits by this eerie wooden door.
This door is the ghost gate, and this ghost gate is not like the imperial army club's den. Because it is located under the police station, there are some restrictions. This ghost gate can be opened at any time in the evening, all depending on the owner's mind.
As soon as he entered the Ghost Gate, the ghosts inside were already standing together in an orderly manner, as if they knew Bai Yu was coming, and seemed to be welcoming him.
Dai Baiyu stood still in this den of ghosts, and soon saw several large ghosts walking towards him from a distance.
