A mortal who has been a god for eight hundred years takes Han Li as his disciple!
Chapter 2: Two simpletons, Han Li!
When Zhao Changsheng spent nearly half a year in the Yue Kingdom to find Han Li.
But they discovered that Han Li was just a country boy living in a small mountain village, known as a simpleton.
He lived in a dilapidated, leaky thatched hut and wore an old, patched, dark yellow cotton-padded coat.
At this moment, Han Li was staring blankly at Zhao Changsheng, who had appeared before him.
He didn't understand why such a person suddenly appeared in front of him, startling him.
"You're Han Li?"
Zhao Changsheng looked at the country boy in front of him, whose skin was somewhat dark and whose appearance was unremarkable.
Zhao Changsheng frowned and asked another question uncertainly.
Han Li's answer was very simple; he simply nodded in acknowledgment.
"Do people in your village still call you 'Silly Boy'?"
To ensure everything went smoothly, Zhao Changsheng asked another question about Han Li's nickname, "Er Lengzi" (meaning "foolish fool").
Although he disliked the title, Han Li nodded nonetheless, but this time he asked a question in return.
"Who are you?"
"I am your future master, and I would like to take you as my apprentice. Are you willing?"
Faced with Han Li's question, Zhao Changsheng didn't waste any words and directly stated his purpose.
At present, Han Li is just a rural boy who is not yet an adult and has not yet joined the Seven Mysteries Sect. His spiritual root is indeed a pseudo-spiritual root with four attributes.
"Will you take me as your apprentice?"
Upon hearing Zhao Changsheng state his purpose, Han Li blurted out.
As the village's most intelligent child, Han Li was very clear about what the word "disciple" meant.
But what he didn't understand was why Zhao Changsheng, this extraordinary stranger of unknown origin, would take him as his apprentice.
He didn't understand this matter at all, but he had to find out.
Otherwise, he himself would be very worried about his safety, and he would have preferred not to have run out so casually.
He ran away secretly because he wanted to see what was happening outside the village and get some information.
However, Zhao Changsheng's sudden appearance disrupted their plans.
Zhao Changsheng even wanted to take him as his apprentice, something he never expected.
"That's right, I want to take you as my apprentice. Are you willing?"
Zhao Changsheng nodded heavily, then patiently pressed for more information.
"What can I get in return, and what do you want?"
Han Li lowered his head and thought for a moment, then asked again.
"You can gain knowledge you never learned before, you can learn many things you didn't know, and these things will be of great benefit to you. Do you know why the sky is blue? Do you know why crops can grow on this land? Do you know that water can actually burn? Do you know that besides humans, there are other creatures in this world that also possess intelligence and can think?"
"Did you know that besides ordinary people like you, there are also cultivators in this world who can fly and escape into the earth?"
Zhao Changsheng's series of questions left Han Li completely bewildered, and he shook his head frantically.
"I have no idea."
"It's normal that you don't know this, but once you become my disciple, you will learn these things, and may even have the opportunity to become a cultivator capable of flying and teleporting in the future. But you cannot tell anyone, including your parents, understand?"
Zhao Changsheng's words made Han Li nod, and he agreed without much hesitation.
"I agree, but why do you want to take me as your apprentice?"
Han Li asked the question that had been bothering him the most. He really couldn't understand why this was happening, nor could he figure out the reason behind it, so he decided to ask the person involved.
"I have my reasons, which you don't need to know right now. What you need to do now is to become my disciple. Once you become my disciple, you will know everything I just told you in the future."
As soon as Zhao Changsheng finished speaking, Han Li kowtowed and performed the apprenticeship ceremony.
He heard this from Uncle Zhang in the village; one needs to kowtow to become an apprentice.
This Uncle Zhang was one of the few literate people in their village.
The name Han Li was given to him by this old Uncle Zhang.
It was obtained by his father in exchange for two steamed buns.
"Alright, from now on, you are my disciple. However, if you want to come with me, you must first tell your parents. Get their consent and let them know about this. I will also give your parents a sum of money to ensure they will have enough to eat and wear for the rest of their lives."
Zhao Changsheng's words made Han Li even happier and relieved his worries, so he immediately expressed his gratitude.
"Thank you, Master."
"Okay, then take me to meet your parents now. Tell them about it."
Zhao Changsheng nodded and asked Han Li to lead the way to meet Han Li's parents.
"Yes, Master. Please come with me."
After saying that, Han Li obediently led the way back to his home.
Upon returning home, Han Li's parents were greeted by a stranger dressed in luxurious clothes.
They thought Han Li had gotten into some trouble by sneaking out this time, and had offended a powerful person.
Just as he was about to apologize, Zhao Changsheng stopped him with a gesture, and then he explained in one breath that he had taken Han Li as his disciple and was preparing to take Han Li away from here.
After hearing what Zhao Changsheng had to say, Han Li's parents were both surprised and delighted, feeling as if their ancestral graves were about to emit auspicious smoke.
Han Li's parents immediately agreed without any hesitation.
They even prepared to take out cured meat from the cellar, which was only used during the New Year, to treat Zhao Changsheng, but Zhao Changsheng stopped them.
He then said that he would take Han Li away and would send money to the Han family every month, guaranteeing that the family would never have to worry about food and clothing again and would never live a life of poverty again.
As soon as this was mentioned, Han Li's parents, his beloved younger sister, and his older brother all knelt down and kowtowed to Zhao Changsheng.
Zhao Changsheng readily accepted this offer and did not refuse.
To prevent any accidents from happening because of the Han family's wealth, Zhao Changsheng deliberately left behind a way to save his life.
Zhao Changsheng guaranteed that the Han family would have absolutely no problems within the next hundred years.
The reason for the century is that Zhao Changsheng believes Han Li will definitely achieve success in his cultivation within a century, at which point it will have nothing to do with him anymore.
Han's parents and relatives had already passed away.
By then, the Han family will actually have little to do with Han Li.
After resolving the Han family's matter, Zhao Changsheng took Han Li to the Seven Mysteries Sect.
This is a place you absolutely must visit.
Han Li obtained the little green bottle here.
So this is the place we need to go. At the same time, it's impossible for Zhao Changsheng to teach Han Li alone.
Therefore, he had to find a good teacher for Han Li—Mo Juren.
Han Li's master taught him a lot.
Zhao Changsheng was preparing to temporarily hand Han Li over to this person.
