A passerby in a horror movie
Chapter 49, Daoist name Zhenxuan, invites guests.
“Zhenxuan, Zhenxuan! My Daoist name from now on will be Zhenxuan. Thank you, Uncle-Master. I will remember this and live up to your expectations.”
Li Haotian kept repeating those two words.
Uncle Jiu has high expectations for him, otherwise he wouldn't have given him this name. Li Haotian suddenly felt a lot of pressure.
Li Haotian thought of his real name again. Having experienced several worlds, he knew that his name was easily misunderstood. Although he didn't care, he still wanted to hear the opinions of professionals.
"Uncle-Master, is it taboo that my name is the same as the title of the Great Celestial Venerable?"
Li Haotian asked softly.
Hearing Li Haotian's words, Uncle Nine smiled and shook his head:
"You didn't choose this name yourself, and besides, your parents didn't believe in Taoism when they chose this name, so they didn't know anything about these things. There's nothing to be afraid of."
Moreover, the Great Celestial Venerable is a primordial deity, the embodiment of the Dao, and originally had no name. His titles were given by people, so there is no question of taboos or taboos.
As long as you didn't knowingly choose this name after learning about the Great Celestial Venerable, there's nothing to worry about.
Uncle Nine said slowly.
There's a saying that goes, "Ignorance is no excuse."
Li Haotian didn't choose his own name, so there's nothing to worry about.
If Li Haotian was a name given to him after he entered the Daoist path, knowing full well that Haotian was the title of the Great Celestial Venerable, and he still insisted on giving it to himself, then that would truly be disrespectful to the gods.
Having received Uncle Jiu's answer, Li Haotian was completely relieved.
After chatting for a while about cultivation and understanding Li Haotian's basic skills, Uncle Nine told Li Haotian to go back and rest for the time being.
Although Li Haotian was eager to follow Uncle Nine in his cultivation as soon as possible, he wasn't in a hurry.
Uncle Nine also has his own things to do and can't tutor him like a private tutor all the time. Li Haotian can't keep bothering him, that would be impolite.
Qiu Sheng returned in the evening.
Li Haotian proposed that he would treat his two senior uncles and senior brother to a meal at a restaurant in town.
Although Uncle Nine wanted to decline, not wanting Li Haotian to spend money, he couldn't resist Li Haotian's persuasion, and with two of his apprentices urging him on, Uncle Nine had no choice but to agree.
"This is what they call being lucky enough to arrive. As soon as I got back, my junior brother invited us to dinner."
Qiu Sheng smiled and looked at Li Haotian, sizing him up.
With a quick glance, Qiu Sheng noticed that Li Haotian's attire didn't seem to indicate he was short of money. He then formed an idea, stepped forward, put his arm around Li Haotian's shoulder, and said with a smile:
"Junior brother, tomorrow I'll take you to explore the town. Although it can't compare to foreign countries, there are plenty of fun things to do..."
"Hmph, you rascal, don't lead your junior brother astray!"
Starting tomorrow, I will be checking your homework regularly. You two are the senior students, so you should set a good example for your juniors. Don't embarrass me all the time!
Uncle Nine got angry as soon as he saw these two clowns.
His two apprentices were worlds apart from Li Haotian.
Normally it would be fine, but now he can't let them slack off and cheat, otherwise he won't be able to afford to lose face.
Fortunately, it's the same whether you herd one sheep or three sheep, so while teaching Li Haotian, we can also discipline these two guys properly.
"Ah, no, Master, we've already tried our best."
Upon hearing Uncle Jiu's words, Qiu Sheng and Wen Cai, who was also affected, immediately began to wail in pain.
Seeing his apprentices like this, Uncle Nine instantly felt that his decision was right, completely ignoring their pleas for mercy.
So the group of people walked toward the restaurant in high spirits.
Li Haotian was new to the town and didn't know the layout, so Qiu Sheng led the way to the largest restaurant in town.
"Junior brother, this restaurant is newly opened. I heard it's very grand inside, and they also serve foreign cuisine, which is delicious."
Wen Cai, standing to the side, licked his lips and introduced Li Haotian.
His purpose was obvious: he wanted Li Haotian to treat them to foreign food.
Li Haotian naturally understood what the other party meant.
Since the space provides ample funds, there's no harm in using them. When treating Uncle Nine and Master Four Eyes to a meal, we should be generous.
So Li Haotian ordered a large table of food, including coffee, tuna, egg tarts, and other foreign dishes, so that Uncle Jiu and the others could have a taste of the West and avoid losing face when they met Master Ren later.
"Ugh, junior brother, what is this dark tea? Why is it so bitter?"
As soon as the pre-dinner dessert was served, Wencai couldn't wait to take a sip of coffee. His mouth was full of bitterness, but he couldn't bear to spit it out, so he could only grit his teeth and swallow it down.
As a result, his already bitter expression became even more bitter, and he looked as if he had aged more than ten years in an instant.
"Senior, this is coffee, a foreign beverage."
Coffee is made from coffee berries, which grow on the coffee tree. After drying, the berries are ground into powder and brewed.
It's similar to our soy milk, but coffee is more bitter and can be used to stay awake. It's best to add some sugar or milk and stir it before drinking; that should improve the taste considerably.
As he spoke, Li Haotian personally demonstrated the operation.
"And this is tuna sashimi, which is a whole fish cut up, seasoned and eaten directly. Foreigners like to eat it raw, usually with some wasabi or something."
I was worried you wouldn't like it, so I asked the kitchen to make it fully cooked. Just cut it with a knife and fork and eat it with a fork.
And these egg tarts are a small dessert before or after meals; you can eat them on their own.
Li Haotian introduced each dish, which immediately broadened the horizons of everyone at the table.
Seeing Li Haotian's thoughtful introduction, and seeing no disdain shown by him, the crowd's goodwill towards him increased considerably.
Especially Uncle Nine and Master Four Eyes.
Li Haotian not only explained these items in detail, but also prepared them and personally served them to them, showing them great respect. This made the two even more satisfied with Li Haotian.
Li Haotian is not only handsome, but also studied abroad and has seen the world. He also comes from a wealthy family. That's not all. The key point is that his character and personality are also top-notch. Who wouldn't like such a disciple?
Uncle Nine was looking at Li Haotian with admiration.
Suddenly turning her head, she saw Wencai's eating habits and her mood instantly soured.
"What is this? It tastes so good, ah~"
Wen Cai held a bone in his left hand and an egg tart in his right, taking bites from both sides.
He would occasionally look down and take a sip of coffee from the table, his mouth covered in food, which looked disgusting.
Uncle Nine instantly became furious.
"Wencai, can't you be a little more civilized? You have no manners at all, whether you're standing, sitting, or eating. Aren't you ashamed if people see you like this?"
Uncle Nine hurriedly scolded.
They weren't the only ones at this table. Everyone else ate politely, but when they came to Wencai's, they were like starving ghosts reincarnated.
This was all done in front of his junior apprentice Li Haotian and his junior brother Simu, he really lost all face!
