Sun and Moon Are Wrong: Traveling Through Time from Under One Person

Shuiyun looked embarrassed and sad.

"Master, the apprentice you accepted this morning, the one named Meng Ning, is incompetent and cannot be assessed."

Zuo Rutong became interested when he heard it.

"What? Could it be that this kid is being lazy and not listening to you?"

After hearing this, Shuiyun's face turned even darker, and he seemed to not know how to respond.

"Not really, it's just that he listens to me too much. When I ask him to fetch water, he fills the water tank with just a few moves. When I ask him to chop wood, he chops all the wood with just a few swings of his sword. I have no choice but to ask him to fetch wood and water, but who would have thought that he would recruit countless soldiers as small as soybeans to do all the work for him."

"You asked me to observe his actions and behavior. I don't know what to do! The boy is probably lying in the House of Commons now, and the work in the House of Commons is not enough for him to fill his teeth."

"Then I'll tell you the truth. That guy just lay there the whole time, doing nothing. He was too lazy to move. But he completed all the tasks. How can I see that?"

Hearing what Shuiyun said, Zuo Rutong laughed out loud, and the people from the Trinity Sect around him also looked curious.

Whose child is this, so capable? Shuiyun can't do anything about it.

"Whatever, whatever. Shuiyun, you don't need to worry about this disciple from the lower courtyard. Just let him do these things as usual. As for efficiency, that is his own ability. I will go to the lower courtyard in person in a few days."

"Master, isn't that kid's behavior a bit too ostentatious and cunning?"

"Haha, speaking of thieves. All cultivators are thieves of heaven and earth. Aren't you and I not thieves?"

In the following days, a strange phenomenon appeared in the Trinity Gate. Every day, the disciples did not have to go to the river at the foot of the mountain to fetch water or chop firewood. Countless ant-like little bean soldiers would fill the water tanks with firewood and deliver them to the gates. When the little bean soldiers left, they would also sweep the square.

The disciples of Sanyi Sect looked at the dense group of little bean soldiers and wondered in their hearts, "Who is that little devil down the mountain?" "Why is he so outrageous?" What the disciples of Sanyi Sect did not know was that 3400 kilometers away in Bashu Tang Sect, it was still icy rain in the martial arts arena.

On the evening of the seventh day, Zuo Ruotong went down the mountain and went to the lower courtyard alone.

In the lower courtyard of Trinity Gate, Meng Ning was lying on the bed humming a little tune, thinking that it was time to go back to Mengjia Village to visit my childhood sweethearts. I haven't seen them for many days, and I really miss them, and my gentle senior sister.

As the saying goes, to capture a man's heart, you must first capture his stomach. In the past few nights, every time Meng Ning went back to Trinity Gate for dinner, the food prepared by Senior Sister Miao Qingqing was so appetizing that it reminded Meng Ning of his mother.

Unfortunately, in the future, Senior Sister Miao Qingqing will defend Gao Haoguang from the sneak attack of the magic corpse, which will eventually lead to the separation of the body and soul, and the soul can only be stored in the giant panda mechanical puppet.

Meng Ning has to find a way to change his senior sister's fate.

But fate is really hard to change, and many people believe it is unchangeable. I should practice changing other people's fate first.

Haha, but as someone who possesses the innate magical power of time and space, shouldn't it be easy for me to do such a small thing as changing my fate? I'm putting too much pressure on myself.

Who should I choose as the first person to practice with?

Suddenly, a breeze blew by, and in a flash a young man in white stood in front of Meng Ning's bed.

"Ning'er, what are you doing lying here and wasting your time?"

"Ah? Master, you're here. You asked me to stay in the lower courtyard. What else can I do except staring blankly without any practice?"

"Ha, you are blaming me for everything. Tell me, I asked you to stay in the lower house for a few days to pretend. But you have been so high-profile these days. You are talking about spells and magic. Is the knowledge you learned from the Three True Dharmas just for you to show off?"

Zuo Rutong suddenly smiled meaningfully, waiting for Meng Ning's next answer.

"Ah? Master, why do we in the Xuan Sect have to do this? If you ask me, we should stop beating around the bush."

"Oh? You said I was beating around the bush? You didn't listen to Master, but instead blamed me for coming. Tell me, how did I beat around the bush?"

"You just want to test my honesty."

"The first word 'honesty' naturally refers to whether you are honest to yourself."

"You know that I have the magic to easily complete the task of fetching water and chopping wood, but you let me come to the lower house for examination just to show off. If I really listened to you and didn't use any magic, and just fetched water and chopped wood by myself to show off to outsiders, I'm afraid you wouldn't accept me."

Hearing this, Zuo Rutong smiled even more deeply and motioned Meng Ning to continue.

"The purpose of learning magic is to use it. If I really deceived you and wronged myself just to listen to you, then wouldn't that be deceiving myself? We cultivators of this generation value the communication of our minds. There is obviously a better way to solve the problem. Why should we go far away?"

Hearing this, Zuo Rutong asked back.

"You are not willing to go far away to seek the near, but do you know that you have been showing off your magic these days, and my Sanyi disciples have complained about you?"

Meng Ning said he didn't care.

"We Taoists have an old saying. Oh, right..." Meng Ning continued.

"It is said that if one can understand the mysteries with just a few words, there is no need for thousands of books. If a person is not burdened by his physical form, then the Great Luo Heaven will be before his eyes."

"I can hide my magic from you brothers for a while, but can I hide it from you forever? Wouldn't it be better to be open and honest from the beginning? If I'm open, won't you feel better without having to fetch water or chop wood?"

"Why do you care so much about other people's opinions?"

Zuo Rutong laughed out loud.

"Well said! Then can you tell me about the second word '誠'?"

In this regard, Meng Ning said he was tired, and what else? Besides, readers said that I was adding too many words.

"The second word 'honesty' means to be honest to the brothers and to be honest to the master."

"Since I want to worship you and join Trinity, I must show my true thoughts and true face. I have already expressed my sincerity to my senior brother, but am I sincere to you?"

Meng Ning paused, then spoke.

"That is what I am saying to you now. You ask me and teach me. No matter if I listen or not, or how I understand it, I will tell you my true thoughts without adding any falsehood."

"I was wrong, and I tell you. You teach me and guide me. Whether I change or not, I will tell you what I think. In this way, even if I go astray and distort my thoughts, you can prescribe the right medicine."

"Master, am I right?"

Zuo Ruotong looked at Meng Ning and smiled without saying anything. There was no other reason. Meng Ning was right. He really thought so. Meng Ning's test was different from that of ordinary people. Ordinary people joined Trinity either through introduction by others or because the disciples knew the child's character beforehand.

Zuo Rutong saw that Meng Ning had extraordinary talents, and he really wanted to adopt this child, but he had to be responsible for himself, for Trinity, and for this child.

But Meng Ning was too unfamiliar. Zuo Rutong really didn't know him, didn't know anything about him.

But can this be difficult for the immortal Daying? One leaf can tell the coming of autumn, and a small thing can tell the big thing. From the beginning, Meng Ning was asked to go to the lower house to pretend, from that moment on.

Zuo Rutong's assessment of Meng Ning has officially begun.
