I was selling peach wood swords on a live stream, how did I become a Taoist ancestor?

Chapter 260 The Great Xia's Highest Cultivation Holy Land is About to Welcome Its Master

The next morning, Li Jun was woken up by Xiao Lingxi.

"Master! Master! The sun's already high in the sky!"

The little guy lay on the edge of the bed, his big, bright golden eyes staring at him.

Li Jun opened his eyes and looked out the window.

The sky was just beginning to lighten.

"Lingxi, what time is it?"

Grandpa says going to bed early and waking up early is good for your health!

Little Lingxi said in a serious tone, then tugged at his sleeve, "Master, get up quickly! Grandpa made breakfast, it smells so good!"

Li Jun had no choice but to get up.

After washing up, I went to the kitchen, where the old Taoist priest was already sitting at the table.

On the table were three bowls of porridge, a dish of pickled vegetables, and several steaming hot buns.

"woke up?"

The old Taoist priest glanced at him and handed him a pair of chopsticks.

Li Jun took the chopsticks and sat down at the table.

Little Lingxi was already holding her small bowl, slurping down her porridge with gusto, her cheeks bulging like a little hamster.

"Drink slowly, don't burn yourself."

The old Taoist priest spoke from the side, his tone full of affection.

Xiao Lingxi gave a mumbled reply and continued to bury her head in her porridge.

Li Jun watched this scene and a slight smile appeared on his lips.

……

After breakfast, Li Jun stretched his muscles in the yard.

Sunlight streamed in from the eastern hilltop, falling warmly into the courtyard.

The flower buds on the gourd vine have grown a bit larger than yesterday, and a faint golden tinge can already be seen at the tips of the tender green buds.

Little Lingxi was squatting in front of the gourd vine, resting her chin on her hand, staring at the flower buds.

"Master, when will they bloom?"

Li Jun walked over and squatted down next to her.

"Soon."

He reached out and gently touched one of the flower buds.

The flower bud trembled slightly, as if in response.

Xiao Lingxi's eyes lit up.

"Master, it moved!"

Li Jun smiled and was about to speak when suddenly his brow twitched, and he looked up at the foot of the mountain.

A car is coming.

……

At the foot of Qingfeng Mountain.

A black minivan slowly came to a stop at the foot of the mountain.

The car door opened, and President Qin stepped out.

He looked up, his eyes filled with awe as he gazed at the blue stone path leading to the mountainside.

Along the path, the trees have sprouted tender green buds, which gleam faintly in the morning light. At the end of the path, a Taoist temple appears and disappears in the distance.

At this moment, the word "respect" is no longer enough to describe President Qin's feelings towards this small Taoist temple and the young Taoist priest inside.

That was true awe.

One battle annihilated 100,000 gods.

The island was shattered with a single punch and kick.

Finally, he planted his sword on the summit of Mount Olympus, causing the mythical sacred mountain to sag by nearly a thousand meters.

Any one of these events, taken out at random, would be enough to shake the world.

Master Li did it all in one night.

President Qin took a deep breath, straightened his collar, and then lifted his foot to walk up the cobblestone path step by step.

Soon, the small Taoist temple came into full view of him.

The green tiles are still mottled, and the courtyard walls are still mottled.

The red lanterns hanging from the eaves swayed gently in the morning breeze.

Everything was exactly the same as when he last came.

But it seems like everything is different now.

President Qin stood in front of the Taoist temple and took a deep breath.

Then he raised his hand, ready to knock on the door.

Squeak.

The door opened by itself.

Li Jun stood inside the door, dressed in a plain-colored Taoist robe, looking at him calmly.

"Good morning, Mr. Qin."

President Qin quickly clasped his hands in greeting.

"Good morning, Master Li."

Li Jun stepped aside and gestured for them to proceed.

"Please come in."

President Qin nodded and stepped into the courtyard.

The scene in the courtyard startled him slightly.

At the stone table, the old Taoist priest held a teacup and looked at him with a smile.

Behind the old Taoist priest stood a little girl with a face full of curiosity.

The little girl's eyes are golden.

President Qin was startled.

Is this... that dragon?

He quickly looked away and bowed to the old Taoist priest with clasped hands.

"Master Zhang, I apologize for disturbing you."

The old Taoist priest waved his hand.

"No disturbance, no disturbance. Come, sit down and have some tea."

President Qin responded and sat down at the stone table.

The old Taoist priest poured him a cup of tea.

President Qin accepted the gift with both hands, thanked him, and then took a small sip.

The tea was very ordinary, just wild tea from the mountains, with a slightly bitter taste.

But for some reason, drinking it brought a sense of peace.

"You two chat, I'll take Lingxi back to the house to learn to read."

The old Taoist priest stood up, smiled, waved to President Qin who was about to get up, and then led Xiao Lingxi to the main room.

After his master left, Li Jun sat down across from President Qin at the stone table.

"Mr. Qin, is there anything I can do for you today?"

Upon hearing this, President Qin sat up straight.

"Master, I have come today with three main matters to discuss."

Li Jun nodded.

"Please speak."

President Qin took a deep breath.

"The first thing is to express our gratitude to the Taoist priest on behalf of the Night Watchmen and the Great Xia Dynasty."

He stood up, clasped his hands in a fist salute, and bowed deeply to Li Jun.

"The Daoist Master's intervention this time slayed the Cherry Blossom Gods, stabilized the Great Xia's ley lines, and protected the hundreds of millions of people of Great Xia. This kindness and virtue will be forever etched in the memories of the Night Watch!"

Li Jun waved his hand.

"President Qin, there's no need for these words."

"I am a citizen of Great Xia, so it is only right and proper for me to do these things."

Upon hearing this, President Qin felt a surge of warmth in his heart.

It is only natural.

These four words are spoken so casually.

But what they did was earth-shattering.

President Qin straightened up and sat down again.

But the gratitude on his face did not diminish in the slightest.

He hesitated for a moment, then took a document from his briefcase and handed it to Li Jun with both hands.

"Master, this is the second matter."

Li Jun took the document, opened it, and looked at it.

It is a letter of appointment.

The notice stated that Master Li Jun was specially appointed as the Chief Advisor of the Night's Watch, with the highest authority and the ability to mobilize all resources of the Night's Watch.

After reading it, Li Jun frowned slightly.

"President Qin, this is..."

President Qin quickly explained, "Master, this is just a title; it does not restrict your freedom at all."

"The Daoist Master's intervention this time has protected our Great Xia, and the higher-ups are extremely grateful. They want to do something for the Daoist Master, but they don't know what the Daoist Master needs."

After listening, Li Jun remained silent for a few seconds.

Then he nodded.

"OK."

He placed the documents on the table without saying anything more.

President Qin breathed a sigh of relief.

What he feared most was that Master Li would refuse him.

Then, he took a small box out of his briefcase and handed it to Li Jun.

"Master, these are Lingxi's ID card and household registration book."

Li Jun took the box, opened it, and took a look.

Inside, there was a brand new ID card and a household registration booklet.

The photo of Xiao Lingxi on her ID card is very well taken; she has a round little face and big golden eyes.

Name: Li Lingxi.

Ethnicity: Han.

Address: Qingfeng Temple, Qingfeng Mountain, Luxian County.

Li Jun looked at the ID card and a slight smile appeared on his lips.

From today onwards, this little guy is someone with status.

"Thank you, Mr. Qin."

President Qin quickly waved his hand.

"Of course, of course."

Afterwards, President Qin sat in Qingfeng Temple for a while, reported on the situation of the extraordinary world at home and abroad, and then got up to take his leave.

……

After seeing President Qin off.

As soon as Li Jun returned to the courtyard, he saw Xiao Lingxi lifting the curtain and looking at him curiously.

Li Jun waved.

"Lingxi, come here, I want to show you something."

Xiao Lingxi quickly ran over.

Li Jun opened the box, took out the ID card, and handed it to her.

"This is your ID card. From now on, you'll have a legal identity."

Xiao Lingxi took the ID card and looked at it over and over again.

She doesn't know many words yet, but she recognizes the people in the photos.

"This is me!"

She pointed to the photo and said excitedly.

Li Jun nodded.

"Yes, this is you."

Little Lingxi hugged her ID card and spun around in circles with joy.

Then, she noticed the old Taoist priest coming out of the main house, and immediately ran over with her short legs, holding her ID card high.

"Grandpa, look! My name is on this!"

The old Taoist priest smiled and nodded: "Hmm, Li Lingxi, isn't it a nice name?"

"It sounds great!" Xiao Lingxi nodded vigorously, then pointed to the photo, "That's me!"

"Yes, it's you. You're really good-looking."

Little Lingxi blinked her eyes, then suddenly smiled shyly, buried her face in the old Taoist's legs, and rubbed against him.

At this moment, Li Jun walked over and said, "Keep your ID card safe, don't lose it."

"No way!" Xiao Lingxi hugged her ID card tightly to her chest, as if it were a precious treasure.

Watching this scene, the old Taoist priest suddenly remembered something and said, "By the way, Lingxi, Grandpa has something to tell you."

Xiao Lingxi turned to look at him: "What is it?"

The old Taoist priest said with a smile, "Now that you have an ID card, you can go to school."

Little Lingxi tilted her head: "Going to school? What's going to school?"

"Going to school means going to school, where you can play with many other children, and teachers will teach you to recognize words, draw, and sing."

After hearing this, Lingxi frowned, pouted, and shook her head: "No, Lingxi doesn't want to play with other children. Lingxi only wants to stay with Master and Grandpa."

As she spoke, she hugged the old Taoist priest's hand and rubbed her face against it.

The old Taoist priest was completely charmed by her rubbing against him, but he still put on a stern face and said, "You can't skip school."

Why?

"Because your master was already in school when he was your age, and now he's in college," the old Taoist priest said, pointing at Li Jun. "Look at your master, how successful he is now."

Little Lingxi turned to look at Li Jun, her eyes wide with curiosity: "Master, what is university?"

Before Li Jun could reply, the old Taoist priest spoke first.

"University..." The old Taoist priest paused, hesitated for a moment, thought for a long time, and finally waved his hand, "You'll know when you grow up."

Xiao Lingxi looked at Li Jun again, and Li Jun shrugged, indicating that his master was right.

Xiao Lingxi gave a slightly disappointed "Oh," and looked down at the ID card in her hand.

The old Taoist priest looked at Li Jun and suddenly sighed.

"Jun'er, the year you got into university, I wanted to see what a university was like." He paused, his voice lowering slightly, "Unfortunately, it's too far away."

The old Taoist priest spoke these words in a very calm tone, as if he were talking about something very ordinary.

But Li Jun's hand trembled slightly.

He recalled the year he was admitted to university and received his acceptance letter. His master was so happy that he burned three incense sticks in front of the statue and muttered something for a long time.

Later, when he went to register at the school, his master saw him off at the foot of the mountain, waved to him, and said, "Go, study hard."

He didn't think much of it at the time.

Looking back now, what must Master have felt when he returned alone to the empty Taoist temple, sat in the courtyard, and watched the sky gradually darken?

Li Jun was silent for a few seconds, then smiled and said:

"Master, I was just about to go to the school to take care of some things. Why don't we take Lingxi with us in a couple of days and let her see what it's like?"

The old Taoist priest was taken aback, looking at Li Jun with a somewhat complicated expression.

"Is it convenient?" he asked.

"Convenient," Li Jun said. "It's just the right time for Lingxi to go out and have a look around."

The old Taoist priest was silent for a moment, then nodded, smiling somewhat embarrassedly: "Well... alright then."

Little Lingxi, listening from the side, was completely confused, but roughly understood that they were going out, and immediately became excited: "Grandpa, Master, where are we going?"

Li Jun looked down at her: "Go to where Master goes to school."

"Is it fun there?"

"It's alright." Li Jun thought for a moment, then added, "There's a lake, trees, and lots of houses."

Little Lingxi's eyes lit up: "Are there any fish?"

Li Jun glanced at her, his lips twitching slightly: "...Yes."

Little Lingxi clapped her hands excitedly, "Great! I want to see the fish!"

The old Taoist priest watched this scene from the side, smiling, but his eyes were a little red.

He quietly turned his head and wiped the corner of his eye with his sleeve.
