Aspiring to the Immortal Path Chapter 20: Young Master of the Wei family


That night, Manager Qin came to congratulate him. When he learned that Tang Jie was selected, the two elders were so happy that they didn't sleep well all night.

The next morning, someone from the Wei Mansion took Tang Jie away.

Tang Jie never saw his wife again. Only an old man named Niu came and took Tang Jie to the house.

Passing through the quiet waterside pavilion, walking along tree-lined paths, bypassing the majestic rockery, and crossing the red sandalwood bridge, the two of them arrived at the Jingxin Garden. Seeing the bright red and green flowerbed in front of them, Tang Jie knew that this was The place where I will work in the future.

Old man Niu taught Tang Jie how to care for these flowers and plants and how to prune them. Tang Jie brought a small notebook and wrote down these instructions while listening. Seeing this, the old man was quite satisfied.

Most of the young servants who come to work in the Wei family are rushing to study, so they often have no intention of doing the right thing and do not pay attention to the things they should do well.

Seeing how focused Tang Jie was, at least he could distinguish between his own job and what was his extra pursuit, which greatly increased the old man's favorable impression of him.

After talking about the basic maintenance methods, Mr. Niu said: "It is not difficult to maintain flowers and plants. You just need to follow the rules. The key is to be careful. Now that you are new here, if you don't understand anything, just ask me. , I live in the hut next to it. But if you still come to bother me every day after a month, then I won’t care."

"Yes, I understand." Tang Jie replied respectfully.

The old man nodded with satisfaction and told Tang Jie about the situation of the Jingxin Garden.

Since we have to do things here, we can't even figure out who is here.

There are actually not many people in the Jingxin Garden. In addition to the young master Wei Tianchong, there are six boys, two nursing homes and an old lady. The nurses in the nursing home are all adult warriors who generally do not appear in the meditation garden, so they can be ignored, let alone the old ladies.

Among the six servants, the one with the highest status is Wenqing. He is the head servant of the Jingxin Garden. He is mainly responsible for arranging the young master's daily activities and supervising personnel and property. He is also the oldest, already sixteen this year, and has no hope of studying, so he is the least threatening.

Then there are Shi Mo and Shi Meng, both of whom were given names by the wife herself. Those who are given names are usually servants who sell themselves. People like Tang Jie are servants and do not sell themselves, so there is no need to give names.

The biggest advantage of selling one's body over not selling one's body is that one can directly become a personal servant by selling one's body, which is how the status of personal servant of Shi Mo Shi Meng comes from.

Shimo is a reading companion, responsible for accompanying the young master to study and serving the pen and ink. Shi Meng is mainly responsible for taking care of the young master's room, making the beds and serving tea and water.

They are also the people closest to the young master, and can be said to be the most powerful competitors of Pu Xue.

In fact, no matter which big family, most servant students come from these two positions. Wu Xing was Wei Tianzhi's companion at the beginning, but he replaced the original companion, so No need to give a name.

In addition to these two people, there are three servants who are responsible for chores outside the house, running errands and being available at any time. Plus Tang Jie, who is in charge of the flower garden, there are exactly four, seven people in total.

As for things like food and clothing, the servants in the big house are responsible for it, so they don't have to worry about young servants like them. Therefore, the work of these young servants is actually very easy. Anyway, they just hang around the young master and do whatever he says.

But in fact, except for Shi Mo and Shi Meng, it is not easy for other servants to get close to the young master.

Seeing that the young master is about to go to school, his intention directly determines who is likely to become the future servant student. Therefore, Shi Mo and Shi Meng have always been very close to each other and rarely give other young men a chance to express themselves. Even if they have to come into contact, these two people will never leave the young master.

The twelve or thirteen-year-old children of other families may still be naughty and ignorant, but the young servants of the big family have already begun to fight for their future.

While I was talking at this moment, a group of people suddenly rushed out from the opposite side. The leader was a slightly fat man, wearing a flame general armor, holding a bamboo whip in his hand, and riding down. There was a man in front of him, followed by four boys, all dressed in military uniforms and holding sharpened wooden spears in their hands. They rushed over with shouts.

Tang Jie was startled by this military appearance. Next to him, Mr. Niu bowed and said, "Young Master!"

Tang Jie understood that this was the rightful owner, and hurriedly lowered his head to greet him. He peeked at the flame general armor on the young master and wondered how he could wear such heavy armor.

Just when a gust of wind blew, the general's armor actually fluttered a few times. His emotions were papery, and he laughed secretly in his heart.

This is the time when the little fat man has arrived in front of the two of them. He straddles the young man's neck and sighs. The team stops. The little fat man says to Mr. Niu: "Old Niu, why are you here?"

The old man replied with a smile: "The new Hua Ding in the house, my wife asked me to bring him to get familiar with him."

A slender-eyed boy next to him immediately whispered something into the little fat man’s ear. Then the little fat man glanced at Tang Jie and said, “Are you the Hua Ding who took three pieces of money from my family?”

Tang Jie lowered his head and replied: "Yes, young master, Tang Jie would like to send his regards to the young master."

The little fat man snorted: "It doesn't look like much."

The young men next to them started laughing together. The young man didn't know how to hide it, and his intention to take pleasure in others' misfortunes was obvious.

These servants were already at odds with each other because of their position as servants. Finally, a new person came and he actually got three guans per month from the Wei Mansion, which was more than them. This made people even more disgusted. So he immediately mocked him whenever he got the chance.

Tang Jie was not shy, and just said calmly: "You are not very good, but I am loved by my wife, so I will do my best to do my duty."

When he said this, everyone immediately suppressed their laughter.

It is the wife who chooses the person. If she laughs again, she will be laughing at the fact that the wife has no eyesight.

The boys may be ignorant in some areas, but this is definitely not the case.

Even the young master did not dare to say that his mother was wrong. He looked at Tang Jie and snorted: "Let's go!"

Getting on the ‘war horse’ again, he left just like that.

Seeing a group of people leaving, Tang Jie was slightly surprised and asked Mr. Niu next to him: "Why is this young master dressed like this?"

Old man Niu sighed: "The young master is not very interested in cultivating immortals. He only wants to become a warrior on horseback. He says he doesn't want to cultivate immortals. He just plays horseback riding and fighting at home every day when he has nothing to do. The old man and his wife are also very worried about this. Ah..."

Tang Jie said with a smile: "That's it. But it's no wonder. What is important in cultivating immortals is to pursue the way of heaven and be free from everything. How can it be compared to the prosperity of the world."

"But life is short, and a hundred years flies by."

"If you want to live forever, you have to be pure and devoid of desires. How is that different from grass, trees and rocks? It's better than a wonderful life."

Mr. Niu looked at Tang Jie in surprise, not expecting him to say such words.

Tang Jie smiled and said: "I just consider the problem from his perspective. For children, aging and death are still too far away, and a rich and wonderful life is the pursuit. The reason why he wants to be a general, What he pursues is not necessarily the position of general, but the majesty of the general. In fact, there are many wonderful things in the world of immortality, but he was probably frightened by the spiritual master at home practicing hard every day, so he felt disgusted. Coupled with the pressure at home, it was too much. Show it, it’s not surprising. But as long as he truly understands the benefits of cultivating immortality, he will change his mind..."

When did Mr. Niu hear such words? He was shocked: "But you are just a child."

"Children who have experienced death." Tang Jie replied calmly: "Growth is related to age, but also to experience."

He was referring to the death of Xiaohe Village and Xu Muyang, but to the old man's ears, it was the fate that he had encountered and nearly "frozen to death" in front of the Wu family. He sighed in his heart and said nothing more. .

From this day on, Tang Jie officially started working in the Wei family.

The gardeners of the Wei family are quite relaxed. Every day they just water the flowers and plants, remove insects, and prune the branches and leaves. The young master of the Wei family was a boy. He had no love for things like flowers and plants. He only glanced at them occasionally. He couldn't tell whether Tang Jie was doing well or not. In addition, Shi Mo Shi Meng followed closely, so except for talking to Tang Jie on the first day, in the following days, he didn't even call Tang Jie once.

Tang Jie was happy and relaxed. He did his own thing every day and went to the room arranged for him by the Wei Mansion to study the true interpretation of the formation path left by Xu Muyang. This was also where he studied the most during this period.

It wasn't that he had changed his mind and wanted to follow Xu Muyang, but that he had not formally practiced the exercises, and the Zangxiang Sutra did not allow unrestrained hard training. The extra time was nowhere to be used and could only be used for this. Considering that he will open the Nine Ultimate Immortal Killing Formation in the future, he has to learn it even if he doesn't like it. After entering the academy, he may not have time to study formations, so he must seize the time now.

As for the young master of the Wei family, he is in no hurry.

There are still three years left before entering the academy, which is enough time.

Besides, approaching the young master rashly without knowing anything about him may not be a good thing. It is better to observe from the sidelines and understand the young master's preferences, such as what he likes to eat, what he wears, and his temperament. Once you understand the young master thoroughly, you can make fewer mistakes no matter how close you are to him.

One successful action is always more effective than ten unsuccessful actions.

From the current point of view, the young master's nature is actually not bad, and his wife's discipline to him is quite strict. It's just that he is supported by a group of flattering boys every day, which makes him a bit arrogant, but his nature is still okay. Otherwise, as Tang Jie said on the first day, some young masters with violent tempers would be upset and might be whipped.

Perhaps because of Tang Jie's "well-behaved nature", the boys saw that Tang Jie was "keeping to himself", so they didn't bother Tang Jie again.

However, Tang Jie's words were transmitted to Mrs. Wei by Mr. Niu.

Mrs. Wei’s wife was a shrewd person. After hearing this, she realized something. Within a few days, she invited a peak spiritual master who had been outside for many years and a garrison general from Canglong Mansion to be her guests. During the banquet, the guard was extremely respectful to the spiritual master. He talked about the immortal master in his mouth. The immortal master had benefited from the Wei family. He also talked about his many years of experience and talked about it brilliantly. The young master was overjoyed when he heard it. I wish I could transform into an immortal and do some heroic deeds. And the guard was entrusted by him to pour out the bitterness of the soldiers~IndoMTL.com~envying the freedom and access of cultivators.

Most of the spiritual masters of the Wei family are people who have just entered the transcendental realm and have achieved nothing. They can be regarded as the most promising group in the world of immortality. Those who really have a future will not accept "the Wei family". Small family” employment.

This time the Wei family invited real people from the world of immortality, which gave the young master an unusual feeling. Looking at the low posture of the guard, I gradually realized that the general's status in this world is extremely low, so the desire to be a general gradually disappeared.

Although I still play endlessly every day, it is no longer a game of horseback riding and fighting. Occasionally, I will also wear a Taoist robe and cast spells.

With one point of the wooden sword, a young boy "vomited blood and fell to the ground dead." The young master laughed, as if he had become an immortal.

This incident made Mrs. Wei have a better impression of Tang Jie. She felt that the child was mature and sensible, so she thought of transferring him to the young master to urge him to study hard. However, thinking about Tang Jie The time here is still short, so I decided to take a look first before talking.

However, her casual words were still transmitted to Shi Mo's ears by the maid Yanzhi beside her, that is, the narrow-eyed boy that day.

On this day, Tang Jie was pruning the garden carefully. Seeing that the work was completed and the flower garden was well taken care of, his skills had obviously improved greatly, and he felt quite proud of himself. However, he thought that the young master of the Wei family was ignorant and did not understand. Appreciate it, but it is a pity that my charming eyes are shown to a blind man.

At this moment, Master Wei suddenly rushed over, wearing a Taoist robe and holding a magical sword. He pointed at Tang Jie and shouted: "Look at my supreme immortal magic, fall!"

Tang Jie was stunned and before he could realize what was going on, he heard an angry shout: "Still not falling down yet!"

Shi Mo has already flown up, pounced on Tang Jie in the flower garden, grabbed him and fell towards the flower garden, rolling in the flower garden, overwhelming countless flower seedlings, and causing falling flowers to fall...
