Chapter 457 This Taoist Name Really Suit You 2
"Okay, stop feeling sorry for him. Can you please tell me what you're trying to accomplish by doing this?"
In Bai Yue's mind, Xiao 1 asked with confusion.
"I simply believe that people should be responsible for their actions. I didn't expect that after my master's explanation, it would become so noble!"
She really had not expected that the man in front of her would stand up to defend her. After all, in their previous interactions, the other party never seemed to give her a good face.
"Thank you Master!"
Just at this moment, Lingxuzi suddenly turned his head. Bai Yue expressed her gratitude to him with a smile on her face, but the other party quickly turned his head back and no longer looked at her.
"Okay, still very cool!"
Bai Yue felt that this was Lingxuzi's normal state, so she shrugged indifferently. However, she had no idea that he did this just to hide his cheeks that had already turned completely red because of her smile.
"Chance is determined by heaven, and the heart of Tao is enlightened. Things in the world are impermanent, but nature remains. So this is the heart of Tao. I have enlightened! I have enlightened!"
At this moment, the tall Taoist priest suddenly roared, then rushed to Lingxuzi and Baiyue in a few steps, and bowed his head with a "thump".
"Thank you for your guidance, Master. Thank you for your guidance, fellow Taoist. I am willing to repent for my evil deeds just now. I will bear the remaining bangs on my head!"
"And me! And me!"
As soon as he finished speaking, several more Taoists who had been called out by Bai Yue stepped forward. This time, Bai Yue did not try to stop them. Soon, the entire hall was filled with the sound of kowtows.
"This bow is complete, you can stand up now!"
With the combined efforts of several people, the kowtow was finished in a short while. However, except for Ling Wei, the others continued with their previous actions and had no intention of stopping.
"Hey, hey, hey, didn't Brother Dazhuang tell you to stop? Why are you still kowtowin'?"
At this time, Ruomiao looked at those people with a confused look on her face, while Ruoxu walked to her side and spoke in a low voice.
"Ruo Miao, they are not worshipping Master Bai, but their Dao Heart. These people have indeed attained enlightenment, just as they said!"
"But even if these people realize it, what good will it do? Evildoers simply refuse to face up to their mistakes, and kindhearted people, in the end, gain nothing but suffering!"
At this time, Xiao Yi's face was full of frost, and his eyes swept coldly over everyone in the hall. Everyone lowered their heads out of shame.
"Kindness isn't about seeking rewards; its meaning lies in passing it on and continuing it. Ruogu's kindness has now been passed on to these people. It's like a seed of kindness, sown among people, taking root and sprouting. In the end, countless kindnesses will form a repetitive cycle, and perhaps one day in the future, it will be rewarded to us in unexpected ways!"
Bai Yue smiled at Xiao Yi as she spoke, and the other party seemed to be hit by these words and froze in place. At this time, Ling Wei pointed at those people and spoke to Lingxuzi in a concise manner.
"These people are my disciples!"
"What? Immortal Lingwei actually wants to accept them as his disciples?"
At this moment, those who did not stand up were looking at those who were still kowtowing with expressions of envy, jealousy and hatred, while Lingyou walked to Ruogu and patted him on the shoulder gently.
"Ruogu, you did a great job this time. You are worthy of being a good disciple of your master!"
"Master!"
Ruogu never expected that his master would praise him, and he immediately felt flattered. At this moment, Ruoxian, who had been lying on the ground, seemed to be suddenly stimulated by something and sat up from the ground.
"Why did I faint just now? What's going on now?"
As he spoke, he looked towards the Taoist priests who were kowtowing, his face full of surprise.
"Strange, why are these junior brothers kowtowing? Didn't I promise to take full responsibility?"
"Brother, when you fainted just now, we... Ouch!"
Ruogu wanted to tell the truth, but he suddenly felt a pain in his arm. Ruomiao twisted it mercilessly.
"Okay, if you want to kowtow, just kowtow quickly. I'll count them for you one by one!"
Ruomiao's face was full of disdain, and she glared at Ruoxian coldly, but the other party seemed not to hear her at all and continued to ask questions on his own.
"Ruogu, what did you mean by that? Have you already dealt with this matter?"
"...Ruoxian, why did you faint just now? Are you feeling unwell?"
Lingyou made a silencing gesture to Ruogu, signaling him not to make a sound. When Ruoxian heard his master's words, he quickly knelt down on the ground with a plop.
"Master, ever since I became the chief disciple, I haven't dared to slack off in my studies every day. I was in a hurry just now, so..."
"Master Lingyou, don't listen to his nonsense. He's just a hypocrite and doesn't want to kowtow at all!"
Ruomiao was immediately furious when she saw Ruoxian pretending to act again, while Lingyou waved at him after pondering for a moment.
"Since you're not feeling well, go back and get more rest!"
"Yes, thank you Master for your concern!"
Ruoxian couldn't help but smile when he saw Lingyou let him go so easily, but as soon as he stood up, he heard the other party speaking to Lingxuzi.
"Master, my disciple Ruoxian is in poor health and cannot bear the heavy responsibility. The title of Chief Disciple should be passed to someone else!"
"what?"
When Ruoxian heard this, he felt a buzzing in his head, and Lingxuzi's next words made him feel completely dizzy.
"Since you are not feeling well, it is not appropriate to recruit any disciples!"
"No!"
At this time, Fan Tong and others standing behind the crowd felt as if they were struck by lightning, because what Ling You and Ling Xuzi had just said was equivalent to taking back all of Ruoxian's rights in Zixiao Temple.
"No!"
This sudden heavy blow made Ruoxian's eyes go black and he actually fainted. However, Lingxi seemed to have not seen this scene at all and walked straight to Lingxuzi's side.
"Master, after all this time, you and Senior Brother Lingwei's disciples still haven't been given Daoist names. I wonder what characters you are going to give them?"
"Ruochi!"
Ling Wei looked at Xiao Yi and slowly said these two words. The other party seemed to have just come to his senses and hurriedly bowed to Ling Wei with one hand.
"Thank you, Master, for the calligraphy!"
"..."
Just when Lingxuzi was frowning and thinking seriously about what word to give Baiyue, Lingyou suddenly laughed and then spoke.
"Master, your disciple has a clear heart for Taoism and is very talented. I think the word 'intelligent' is enough to match her!"
"The word 'zhi' is good, so let's give it this word!"
After hearing this, Lingxi couldn't help but agree, and although Lingwei didn't say anything, he nodded in agreement.
"From today on, your Dao name will be 'Ruozhi'. May you always look up to higher things and persevere in your pursuit of the Dao!"
Lingxuzi turned his head to look at Bai Yue again, but saw that the expression on the other's face was obviously strange.
"Does she dislike this Taoist name? Or does she simply not want to be my disciple?"
Just as Lingxuzi was feeling anxious and worried about the other person's expression, Bai Yue herself was also suffering great torture. In her mind, Xiao 1 was laughing wildly, and the harsh electronic sound was hitting her eardrums over and over again.
"Ruozhi, hahahaha, mentally retarded, hahahahaha, this Taoist name is great, it really suits you!"
