Hearing Wen Zhong's words, Zhao Gongming was stunned.
What the hell?
An official?
The Shang Dynasty is a broken ship that people are already thinking about. Now that I'm an official, do I feel that I'm not dying fast enough and thoroughly enough?
Thus, Zhao Gongming waved his hand and replied," Please forgive me, Fellow Daoist Wen. I'm a man of the wilderness and am used to freedom. I'm afraid I can't stand the red tape of the human world. It's better not to mention being an official."”
Wen Zhong did not take Zhao Gongming's refusal to heart. He knew very well about the nature of these Qi Refinement Warriors.
What could not be restrained?
He was just waiting for the right price!
If he really didn't have any thoughts, why would he rush to find me?
That's right!
In Wen Zhong's opinion, the book that Zhao Gongming had handed over was just a promotion.
Now that Zhao Gongming had handed over the steps, all that was left was to wait.
He just wanted to see what kind of treatment the Shang King would give him and whether it would be to his liking.
Wen Zhong felt no pressure at all.
Just the information in Zhao Gongming's book was enough to prove that Zhao Gongming was a talent. With Di Xin's temper, he would definitely give him a good treatment.
Moreover, even if Di Xin gave him preferential treatment, so what if he couldn't satisfy Zhao Gongming?
The world belonged to Great Shang, so how could it be compared to the Great Shang Imperial Court if he went to the other dukes?
Both sides were not on the same level.
Since you want to be an official, where else can you go if you don't come to Great Shang?
This was not Wen Zhong's wishful thinking.
Didn't Jiang Ziya go to Chaoge before he left the mountain?
Therefore, Wen Zhong didn't try to persuade him now. Instead, he wanted to wait until Di Xin gave him the reward before he tried to persuade him.
What he had to do now was nothing more than win her over.
At that time, his persuasion wouldn't be too abrupt and make everyone feel awkward.
After some quick calculations in his mind, Wen Zhong followed Zhao Gongming's intention and changed the topic.
"Fellow Cultivator Zhao, it's your first time in Zhaoge. Do you have a place to rest?”
"I haven't found a suitable place yet," replied Zhao Gongming.”
Hearing Zhao Gongming's answer, Wen Zhong was even more certain that Zhao Gongming wanted to be an official.
In Wen Zhong's opinion, if he didn't have the intention to be an official, he wouldn't have answered like this. He would definitely say that he didn't need it and that he would leave later.
Now that Zhao Gongming had said that he hadn't found a suitable place yet, he meant that Liu would stay in Zhaoge for a while.
As for the reason why he stayed, Wen Zhong already knew.
Naturally, Zhao Gongming did not know what Wen Zhong was thinking.
If he knew, he would probably tell Wen Zhong,""Young man, you're thinking too much! I stayed only to confirm some things.
For example, how beautiful was Su Daji, who was rumored to be a femme fatale.
Also, what exactly happened during the pilgrimage to the Nüwa Temple that made Di Xin write that poem like a retard?”
Wen Zhong, who thought that everything was under control, confirmed it again and immediately said to Zhao Gongming,"Since Fellow Daoist Zhao hasn't found a suitable place yet, why don't you stay in my residence for a few days?”
Zhao Gongming did not accept Wen Zhong's invitation.
Why should he agree?
Was he looking for trouble?
After finishing his own matters, he could almost hide. There was no need to blindly interfere.
As for worrying that the credit would be taken away?
Zhao Gongming did not mind at all.
I, Zhao, have my pursuits!
What they pursued was merit. As for the rewards of the human dynasty, it was completely meaningless.
Merit was something that was distributed by the Heavenly Dao. It was impossible for it to belong to whoever took it.
'The people are easy to abuse, but the heavens are hard to bully.' This was not just a saying.
In this world where the Heavenly Dao existed, were these benefits so easy to swallow?
Right now, I can't wait for someone to swallow these meaningless rewards and owe me karma.
"In the great tribulation, this Zhao will rightfully send him on the rankings and take his place.
Although the disciples of the three religions didn't want to be on the Investiture of the Gods, it wasn't that easy to get on it.
Otherwise, why would the disciples of Chan School need to take in disciples to replace the calamity?
Wouldn't it be nice to just kill two of them and then go home to cultivate?
Therefore, you needed others to owe you karma before you could let them enter the rankings for you.
As for owing karma, which kind could be more than the grace of teaching?
The kindness of imparting the Dao was the same as rebirth. This karma could not be denied even if he wanted to.
He was the best candidate to replace the calamity.
Zhao Gongming, who did not want to cause any trouble, immediately replied,"Thank you for your kindness, but I won't disturb you anymore.
It's just a place to rest. I'll buy one later.
Gold and silver are simple objects for cultivators like us.”
What Zhao Gongming said was true. When he was refining weapons, Zhao Gongming had obtained a lot of defective gold, silver, and other items.
As a transmigrator, although he didn't care much about these ordinary things, he wouldn't casually throw them away either. This was a habit.
If he had nothing to do, he could use this gold and silver to make some small things. Firstly, it could kill time, and secondly, it could be used as practice.
Currently, there were many objects made of gold and silver in Zhao Gongming's Sumeru Space.
Wen Zhong was a little stunned by Zhao Gongming's rejection.
Zhao Gongming's actions exceeded Wen Zhong's expectations.
Logically speaking, since you, Zhao Gongming, have the intention to be an official, you should be more careful.
Then I, as the Grand Preceptor, will give you a chance now. Isn't it a good thing for everyone to get closer?
Now you actually rejected him. What's going on?
However, Wen Zhong was also a person who had experienced many things. There was nothing he had not encountered.
"Then where does Fellow Daoist Zhao plan to station?" he asked. When the king decides on the reward, I can hand it over to you.”
Zhao Gongming replied," There's no need to give them to me. Please buy these things as food and clothes for those who lack food and clothing."”
"This…"
Without waiting for Wen Zhong Duo to speak, Zhao Gongming stood up and cupped his fists."I've disturbed you for a long time, so I'll take my leave!”
Seeing that Zhao Gongming was not pretending and was really leaving, Wen Zhong could only stand up and say,""Then this poor Daoist will send you off!"
When they arrived at the entrance of the manor, Zhao Gongming turned around and cupped his hands at Wen Zhonggong."This poor Daoist will take his leave. Fellow Daoist, please wait!"
Then, he slowly walked into the distance.
Looking at Zhao Gongming's departing figure, Wen Zhong's heart was in a mess.
What did this Zhao Gongming mean?
It was completely unconventional!
Could it be that he really came to me to promote the things in the book?
This was a little uncomfortable!
Could it be that I'm a tool?
