My cultivation is too warm

Chapter 247 I feel inferior

"Have you not seen that the water of the Yellow River comes from the sky, rushes to the sea and never returns..."

"When will the bright moon appear? I raise my cup to ask the blue sky..."

"Jianjia is green, white dew is frost..."

A group of people from alien lands walked on the ancient streets, listening to the sounds of poetry recitation coming from all directions along the way.

At first, in order to show their dignity, they walked with their postures straight and their eyes straight ahead, but as they walked, their waists involuntarily bent a little.

When they walked from one end of the street to the other, they couldn't help but shrink their bodies and lower their heads, as if they were afraid of being seen.

Then several people walked to a corner and started talking quietly. One of them looked at his companions and asked:

"Didn't we say we were here to visit the market? Why don't you go in?"

Several of their companions looked at each other in bewilderment, and one of them replied, "I heard them reciting poetry and writing couplets, and they seemed so cultured. But I'm a rough man, so I don't dare to talk to them."

After he finished speaking, someone quickly chimed in, "Yeah, yeah, seeing them like this makes me feel so inferior. We're all human, but I feel like we're so different. I feel like I'm totally unworthy of talking to them."

"What about you? Why don't you go?" A companion looked at the person who spoke before and asked.

The man's face froze when he heard that. He took a deep breath and replied, "I'm the same as you."

After they finished speaking, they looked at each other with melancholy expressions again.

When they came here, they were full of expectations, thinking that they could visit Canggu, which is known as the "forbidden place of the heavens", and experience the customs and culture of Canggu.

By the way, let’s take a look at how life in the ancient world is different from theirs.

In the past, many legends about Cang Gu were circulating in the endless time and space of the heavens and myriad worlds.

They say that the people in Canggu are like this and that there is no fighting, that the life there is warm and harmonious, and that people live and work in peace and contentment, and are happy and content.

They had heard many such legends, but they could never picture the specific appearance in their minds.

After all, they have lived in a world full of conspiracies and deceptions since they were born, and in their opinion, this is how the world should be.

It is completely unimaginable that in the endless time and space of the heavens and myriad worlds, there is still a world without struggle, conspiracy, deception, and where people live in harmony.

If they don't fight, how will they live? How will resources be distributed?

Incomprehensible.

It was with such questions that they came to Canggu, wanting to communicate with the people here and see how they live in their daily lives.

As a result, now that they have arrived in Canggu, they dare not communicate with the local people.

I feel very sad.

Why does it become like this?

A few of you looked at each other in annoyance, not knowing what to do.

After a long silence, someone swallowed and offered a suggestion, "I think we're all cultivators, so we should speak based on our strength. Whether we have culture or not is not important. What do you think?" A few people pondered, and then one sighed and replied, "What's the point of strength? There are countless powerful people in the ancient world, and with our cultivation level, it's hard for people to even look at us."

The others nodded in agreement, "That's right. What's even more infuriating is that the Canggu people are not only stronger than us, but also more cultured. Seeing them like this, I can't imagine being looked down upon by so many disdainful eyes the moment I open my mouth."

"Yes, after all, we have come to Canggu now, representing not only ourselves, but also the world behind us. It doesn't matter if we embarrass ourselves personally, but it also makes our world look down upon, especially by the people of Canggu. Just thinking about it makes me uncomfortable."

Although they are not people with a deep sense of collective honor, they are not good people either.

But now that he has come to his old rival Canggu, he naturally needs to maintain the reputation of his own world.

At this time, someone hesitantly suggested: "How about... we let them teach us?"

As soon as these words were spoken, the scene suddenly became quiet and everyone looked at the person who spoke.

Seeing this, the man explained nervously, "Isn't it normal to ask when you don't understand? The people in Canggu should all know that we are definitely not as good as them. Besides, they are kind-hearted. If we ask them for advice, they will surely not refuse. At worst, we can just give them spirit stones."

"The most important thing is, don't you want to show off to the people around you after you finish your studies? Oh no, that's not what I mean. I mean, to show them our hard work and progress, don't you?"

When everyone heard this, they immediately showed excited looks.

They tried to imagine in their minds that after they returned to their original world, the people around them were still speaking vulgar words, but they would start speaking poems and songs full of style. That scene was exciting just thinking about it.

Several people praised, "Great!"

Thinking of this, several people could not wait to walk into an attic, raised their hands and bowed slightly to the people inside, and said very politely:

"Hello everyone, we are from outer space. We have heard your chanting and are filled with longing. We would like to ask you to teach us so that we can become as cultured as you. Is that okay?"

There was a moment of silence, and then everyone present smiled warmly and enthusiastically, "Okay."

Such scenes can be seen everywhere in Canggu. Even if many aliens have not asked Canggu people to teach them directly, after seeing the sounds of reciting poems and composing couplets everywhere, they will come forward with interest and ask a few questions.

Then, the people who originally came to Canggu for tourism and exchange instantly forgot their purpose and enthusiastically exchanged poems and songs with the people of Canggu.

After hearing this, Dao Zun Xuancang and Dao Zun Zixiao from the Canggu Dao League couldn't help but smile with satisfaction.

The reason why the poems and songs that Xu Mo brought over could spread quickly throughout the entire Cang Gu world and become the current trend in the Cang Gu world, with the sound of recitations everywhere, was naturally the result of their secret promotion.

As for the purpose, it is also very simple, which is to spread the ancient ideas subtly. Many of Xu Mo's poems and songs are about family and country.

If you were to teach people from alien lands directly, they would definitely resist, but it would be different if they took the initiative to learn.

When those poems and songs spread throughout the endless time and space of the heavens and all realms, and people in other worlds grew up listening to such works since birth, their goal would have been half achieved.

"As expected, both father and son are treasures of the ancient world. They bring us surprises from time to time."

Taoist Zixiao recalled his experience after meeting Xu Mo's previous alias Wuyou, and couldn't help but sigh.
