Chapter 296 Monkhood
Ning Jing tilted his head and thought for a moment before saying, "Its fur is white, so let's call it Xiaobai."
Huo Yun had no objection to this, and the cat's name was officially decided.
Huang Xiazi felt uncomfortable due to the heat, so he ran to Ning Yan and said shamelessly, "Brother, I know you are very capable, but I still want to take you as my apprentice. Let me tell you, I am good at fortune-telling. If you learn from me, you can become a half-magician."
Ning Yan was directing everyone to dig coal at the moment. Seeing him sweating profusely, his clothes soaked through, he thought for a moment and said, "Okay, but I won't become your disciple. I'll just learn from you casually."
It is always good to have many skills. Now that we are fleeing from famine and can't do any proper work, he might as well learn from me.
Maybe if he gets down on his luck in the future, he can make a living by telling people's fortunes. Besides, he has never been involved in fortune-telling before, but he is quite interested in it.
Upon hearing this, the blind man Huang Huang grinned happily, waved his hands and said, "No need to bow, no need to bow, just give more filial piety in your daily life."
Bai Lifen was cooking with Aunt Zhou and the others. Upon hearing this, she said, "Brother Jian, do you really want to learn?"
Although Taoist priests, fortune tellers, monks and the like were highly respected in the Donglin Kingdom, even the royal family had monks chant sutras and pray for them regularly every year, and the imperial court even had the Imperial Astronomical Observatory, which was dedicated to predicting the country's destiny and future events.
But not everyone can enter this industry. Even if you can, it depends on fate. People without a certain level of understanding may not even be able to reach the threshold.
Bai Lifen felt something was strange when she saw Ning Yan suddenly learning this. Could it be that he wanted to set up a fortune-telling stall in the future?
Huang Xiazi was afraid that Ning Yan would change his mind, so he quickly said to Bai Lifen, "Madam Ning, your little brother is very insightful in this area. He will definitely learn it if he follows me."
Bai Lifen heard this and said doubtfully, "Isn't he thinking of becoming a monk while studying?"
Huo?'s alarm bells rang when he heard this, and he quickly said, "Wife, we don't want to learn this anymore."
If he really becomes a monk, what will happen? Wouldn't he become a widow?
Ning Yu was enjoying the fun and said, "Brother, study. I support you in studying. Even if you become a monk, you are still my brother."
Huo? Gnashed his teeth, raised his foot and kicked the man, saying, "Do you deserve a beating?"
Ning Yu quickly dodged to the side upon seeing this, and shouted, "Brother Huo, you must respect my brother's wishes."
Ye Buli rarely joins in the fun: "I think it's good for Brother Qiang to learn this. Huo? You can't be so selfish."
He just likes to see Huo Yu being humiliated.
Shang Chenyi looked at him with a righteous look and couldn't help but smile. He didn't expect that Ali would also be willing to watch the fun and not mind the big deal.
Huo Yun happened to arrive at this time. Overhearing their conversation, he shouted, "Dad, you want to become a monk? Are you like Tang Sanzang in Journey to the West? Then I want to become a monk too. I want to follow you to the West to obtain Buddhist scriptures."
Ning Gang had been telling his two brothers the story of Journey to the West since they were young.
After saying this, he touched his hair and said with a smug look on his face, "When the time comes, I'm going to shave it all off and become a bald monk."
As soon as he finished speaking, everyone in the audience burst into laughter.
Xu Canjun laughed and said, "Yes, your father is going to become a monk. He will be ordained tomorrow."
Huo Yun was surprised and said, "Really? Then I want to go with Dad."
As soon as he said this, he was kicked on the butt. Huo Yu angrily said, "What do you mean by becoming a monk? If you want to become a monk, go ahead and do it. Don't take my wife with you."
After hearing this, everyone burst into laughter again.
Huo Yun was kicked to the ground, still a little dazed. He patted his butt and climbed up, saying unhappily, "Dad, why did you hit me?"
Where did I go wrong?
