I am Zhao Zhijing, a poor Taoist priest, and I have disciples all over the world.

Chapter 116: It is inevitable that children will show off their talents when visiting relatives during the Chinese New Year

"Transcend the constraints of the body and mind, and thus reach the highest state of unity with the Tao."

“It is called sitting and forgetting.”

Guan Changhong and the others nodded repeatedly after hearing this. Chen Bao seemed to have realized something and said, "In the Zuowang Temple, practicing the Zuowang Dao, Taoist Master Zhao is worthy of being a Taoist master!"

Zhao Zhijing smiled and nodded, thinking to himself that as long as you are happy.

Not long after, the disciples served tea. It was the first time that Guan Changhong and others met all of Zhao Zhijing's disciples, and they couldn't help but praise them again.

"A good teacher produces good students. Taoist Zhao's unfathomable cultivation is something I cannot envy, but these young disciples really make me jealous."

"If Changhong Escort Agency can get one of them, there will be no need to worry about having no successors!"

Chen Bao pretended to be angry and said, "You are the most arrogant among all of us here. Your son is now the favorite disciple of Taoist Zhao. Why are you still so ungrateful?"

Guan Shengnan has been confirmed to be the next chief escort of Changhong Escort Agency. Guan Changhong knows in his heart that his daughter is far more outstanding than an average man.

But if there is a son who can inherit his father's business, why should a daughter be exposed to the public?

Guan Man'er has grown a lot under Zhao Zhijing's careful cultivation, but it is still far from enough to inherit the family business.

So when Guan Changhong saw Zhao Zhijing's other disciples at this time, they were all agile and must have strong martial arts skills, and they must be the best among their peers.

What is even more commendable is that he is neither arrogant nor impatient, and has quite the demeanor of my teacher. This makes me feel deeply moved.

"It is a blessing for our Guan family to have such a master, Man'er, so don't be greedy!"

Guan Changhong warned himself in his heart, raised his teacup and said with a smile: "Guan said something wrong, so I will punish myself with a cup of tea instead of wine!"

Everyone who went up the mountain this time was either someone he knew or an old friend of Chen Bao. They were all familiar with each other. Upon hearing this, they all laughed and moved on.

In fact, who among those present didn’t have any thoughts in mind?
If he didn't know that these young disciples were from the Quanzhen Sect, even if he couldn't accept any disciples, he would have thought about whether there were any girls of marriageable age at home who could be good matches.

Who can blame the fact that there are no particularly talented young people among the various sects in the martial arts world today?
Everyone continued to talk about the recent major and minor events in the martial arts world, and finally inevitably mentioned Zhao Zhijing's defeat of Li Mochou and his heroic feat of shocking the heroes with one sword.

When they passed by the mountain gate just now, everyone looked carefully and found that the long sword was indeed completely sunken into the rock, with only the hilt left outside.

"If Guan Changhong hadn't reminded me, I would have asked those people in the mansion to test Taoist Zhao's strength. If anyone of them provoked me again, how could I have the face to sit here today?"

Chen Bao secretly shook his head. It was a failure that he did not dare to win over Zhao Zhijing because of Li Mochou's matter. If he caused any unpleasantness again, wouldn't he be asking for humiliation?
When the others saw the sword in the stone, they had their own thoughts in their minds. Their own territories were not far from Huashan, so naturally some of them recognized Wei Ye from the Iron Palm Gang and Ma Botao from the Yellow River Gang. At this time, they were secretly glad that they did not follow them up the mountain that time.

"Master Zhao's martial arts skills are truly amazing to me. He has also helped our fellow martial artists in the Sanqin area get rid of the threat of Li Mochou. This is truly a great relief!"

After some flattery, someone else said, "I see that all of Taoist Master Zhao's disciples are as skilled as dragons and tigers. Can you show us a few moves so that we can feast our eyes?"

Everyone present was from the martial arts world. For example, Guan Changhong and Chen Bao had been practicing martial arts for most of their lives. Although it was difficult for them to make any progress in their martial arts, they were still excited when they encountered any new and unique martial arts.

As the abbot of the Zuowang Temple, Zhao Zhijing is the master of this place. It would be an insult to ask him to practice in person.

Moreover, considering his current status and position, although Zhao Zhijing is much younger than most of them, who would dare to act like a senior in front of him?

"This"

Zhao Zhijing was a little hesitant, wondering what the difference was between this and letting children show their talents during the Chinese New Year?
Just as he was about to find a reason to refuse, his eyes happened to see Guan Shengnan and his brother not far away. He remembered Guan Changhong's words praising Guan Man'er's other brothers, and he immediately had an idea in his mind. "You all came from afar, and I am sorry that I cannot entertain you well. So I will let my disciples practice a few moves so that you can give me some pointers."

Zhao Zhijing stood up from his seat, walked slowly to Guan Man'er, and said in a loud voice: "Most of my disciples are naughty. The one with the best martial arts is the son of Guan's chief escort."

Everyone's eyes were focused on Guan Man'er. Those who knew Guan Changhong's family affairs naturally refused to believe it.

Some people even speculated whether Guan Changhong had offended Zhao Zhijing in some way, so he had to drag his son out to embarrass himself in such an occasion.

Yang Guo, who was standing next to Guan Man'er at this time, said, "Disciple Yang Guo, nice to meet you seniors. Junior Brother Man'er is indeed the most skilled martial artist among us brothers."

In fact, this is not wrong. Although Guan Man'er cannot learn complicated martial arts moves, his internal strength is definitely the most profound among all the disciples.

And now with the blessing of Sakya's Elephant Throwing Technique, no one can say that they will win in the end unless they fight for their lives.

"Man'er, come and practice with Master."

Guan Shengnan looked at Zhao Zhijing and chose to believe him in her heart. She gently pushed her brother and asked him to listen to the master.

The other brothers watched from far or near, and they all felt that if they were to choose someone to practice, it would have to be Brother Man'er.

After all, no matter how clever the martial arts moves are, they are not as shocking as the huge rock that falls from the sky.

Seeing Zhao Zhijing's movements, the others stood up and followed. The huge stone used for daily practice was placed in a relatively remote place, so it took a few steps to walk.

"Please stay here, everyone."

Zhao Zhijing was afraid that if he got too close during the drill, they would scare them, so he stopped them and went forward with Guan Man'er.

"Man'er, let's practice throwing and catching stones as usual."

Guan Changhong was of course the most worried among all the people. Looking at the huge rock again, it was probably weighing hundreds of kilograms.

Although Man'er was born with supernatural strength, he had never lifted such a heavy object. Moreover, heavy objects such as boulders and stone locks were different. If he did not have twice the strength, wouldn't he be shooting himself in the foot?

"Master Zhao"

Unexpectedly, just as he was about to open his mouth, Guan Man'er had already bent down, clasped his arms, and lifted the boulder in one go.

"!!!"

Everyone present was amazed. Lifting a hundred kilograms is not a difficult task for a martial artist who is good at hard and internal skills, but Guan Man'er is only a teenager after all, so it is not easy for him to achieve such a level.

However, they didn't know that this was for the subsequent throwing and catching. If it was just lifting, Guan Man'er could already carry a 400-jin boulder!

"Good skills! Great strength!"

Just as the voice of praise was about to be heard, Guan Man'er had already thrown the boulder out, and then he chased after it and caught it steadily before it hit the ground.

"When did Manmaner become so capable?"

Guan Changhong and others were shocked by this scene. They stood there in astonishment, unable to recover for a long time.
