Chapter 221 It’s not as easy as you think
Seeing Zheng Yue looking at him with strange eyes, Xu Wen smiled slightly.

"Why are you looking at me like that? Everything I say is true. If you don't believe me, you can ask the master."

Zheng Yue didn't know who the master was, and she wouldn't go to someone to ask such a boring question just because she didn't believe it.

As a professional broadcaster, Zheng Yue is very good at creating topics.

She did not worry about whether what Xu Wen said was true or false, but followed Xu Wen's words and continued to ask: "Brother Xu, since those masters are willing to let you into the back mountain, it means that they must think that you are extraordinary. "

"Can you tell us what they mainly like about you? Did they persuade you to practice with them in the first place?"

Hearing Zheng Yue ask this, a mysterious smile appeared on Xu Wen's face.

"That's a good question. The master did invite me to join the Taoist temple, but I refused."

Upon hearing what Xu Wen said, Zheng Yue suddenly became more curious.

"Why did you refuse? I think with your personality, Brother Xu, you should be very suitable to be a Taoist priest."

Zheng Yue's words were not an offense to Xu Wen, but netizens' stereotype of Xu Wen.

Fengming Mountain is not a tourist attraction, and there are more temples than Taoist temples. The Taoist temples are not very popular, and there are very few things to do every day.

So in the eyes of netizens, isn’t Xu Wen’s lazy character suitable for being a Taoist priest in a Taoist temple?
Get up in the morning and sweep the floor and dust, then go to bed whenever you want and eat when you want, no one will care about you. How carefree it is.

Xu Wen seemed to know what Zheng Yue was thinking. He chuckled and said, "Do you all think being a Taoist priest is a very happy and relaxing thing?"

Zheng Yue did not answer directly, but her expression already responded.

After all, there are so many pressures in big cities now, such as work pressure, life pressure, marriage pressure, children's education pressure, medical pressure...

You can make a list of all kinds of pressures, and any pressure can make you breathless.

But if you become a Taoist priest, all these pressures will no longer exist.

Xu Wen looked at Zheng Yue and said, "Did you know that Taoist priests have morning and evening classes?"

"what?"

Zheng Yue was confused and even thought she heard wrongly.

"Taoist priests still need to attend morning and evening classes? You are already a Taoist priest, and you still need to study?"

Xu Wen glanced at Zheng Yue and explained: "It's not about studying, it's about reciting scriptures."

"After all, you are a Taoist priest, so you are a boy under the Patriarch of Sanqing."

"Taoist priests have three treasures: Tao, Sutra, and Master."

"Therefore, reciting scriptures in the morning and evening is not only a respect for the ancestors, but also a kind of spiritual practice for oneself."

"After reciting the scriptures, depending on which sect you are from and what you major in, you will use other time to study the techniques of your sect in order to achieve breakthroughs."

Zheng Yue immediately became energetic when she heard this.

"Brother Xu, do you mean that there are really skills in this world? Can you really become an immortal?"

Xu Wen rolled his eyes at Zheng Yue.

"You've watched too many TV series, right?"

"The exercises I'm talking about here are actually Taoist books."

"Some are exercises to strengthen the body, such as Baduanjin and Xuanwu Fist."

"There are also some martial arts techniques for physical training, such as Wudang Boxing, Baguazhang, etc." "But no matter which technique it is, you must be proficient in one or several types of exercises, otherwise your level will If it's too bad, other Taoist priests will look down on you and say you're just here to eat and drink, waiting to die."

"If the circumstances are serious, it is very possible to be kicked out of the Taoist temple and stripped of your Taoist status."

Netizens in the live broadcast room were originally only interested in Taoist priests.

As a result, after hearing Xu Wen say such a long list, my scalp instantly felt numb.

"Is it so troublesome to be a Taoist priest? You have to learn so many things?"

"Brother, I'm afraid you don't know that most of the all-rounders in history were Taoist priests. You can think of them as doctors in ancient times. Do you think this is valuable?"

"This is true. My brother-in-law entered a Taoist temple when he was a child and became a Taoist priest. I thought very well at first, thinking that as long as I became a Taoist priest, I would not have to work and study. But after I went there, I realized that what I had to memorize was a lot. Stacks upon stacks are all treasures left behind by our ancestors.”

"I admire those Taoist priests very much. After all, my idol Yuan Tiangang is also a Taoist priest."

Judging from the comments in the live broadcast room, netizens are still very interested in the topic of Taoist priests.

Because most people have rarely come into contact with Taoist priests, they have no idea about this profession.

Seeing that the number of online viewers in the live broadcast room was increasing, Zheng Yue then asked: "If you just carry things on your back, I think you won't have any pressure, Brother Xu? After all, you graduated from a key university, so your learning ability should be Still have it.”

Xu Wen originally just wanted to talk casually, but Zheng Yue acted like he was going to ask the question.

Xu Wen sighed and said, "You are still used to living in big cities, so you have forgotten what the word "difficult conditions" means."

"When was the last time you took a bath with water in a bucket?"

"The gyms here are all halfway up the mountain. There are often problems with the water pipes. The water will be cut off every three days."

"Look at our current mobile phone signal, there are only two bars."

"That is to say, if we live in the mountains for a long time, we will definitely face water shortages and signal loss."

"Can you accept living in this situation for the rest of your life?"

Netizens in the live broadcast room started discussing again.

"Bathing with a bucket is so real. I used to wash with a bucket when I was a child. Although it is not very convenient, it saves water."

"I have forgotten when I started using a shower head. When I took a shower for the first time, I was very excited."

"I'm afraid it's hard for young people today to appreciate the hard times back then. After all, everyone's living standards have improved now."

Xu Wen looked at Zheng Yue.

"How about it, can you accept what I just said?"

Zheng Yue shook her head and said she couldn't accept it.

Xu Wen continued: "Not only are water and signals a big problem, but eating is also a big problem."

"There are no gas stoves here, only earth stoves."

"This means that you have to go to the mountains to chop wood to make a fire and cook, and cook and stir-fry yourself. There is no takeout."

"Can you persevere in days like this?"

Netizens in the live broadcast room completely gave up resistance.

Can't order takeout?
Then they are useless.

Because they can’t cook! Not to mention cooking on an earthen stove!
