Chapter 154 Inspired by Yunxiao, I'll practice even more!
Yang Jiao looked up at the sky and wept:
"How can someone who has just learned to play mahjong draw the Eighteen Scholars tile?!"
Does the God of Wealth specifically bless him?
Bixiao and Qiongxiao were also stunned. They turned around and began to count their own merits, their faces growing darker with each recounting.
This is practically emptying our coffers!
The two sisters exchanged glances and said in a spoiled manner:
"I'm not playing with the older brother, the older sister is here, this round doesn't count."
Yang Jiao looked at them as if they were her benefactors!
Zhao Gongming stroked his head, his thick beard trembling on his dark face, and said with a smile:
"Then let Yunxiao come and play, I don't know how yet..."
After he finished speaking, no one present looked pleased.
Yunxiao only likes cultivation. He is willing to spend time studying anything he encounters, which is why he has caught up with his elder brother's cultivation level. Just now, he figured out all the rules by looking at the cards and even learned how to count cards.
After Zhao Gongming abdicated, he sat to the side and watched.
The second round starts again.
After Yunxiao rolled the dice, she started drawing cards from Bixiao's side. Just as she finished drawing her cards, she asked curiously:
"Ok?"
Yang Jiao felt something was wrong again.
Then Yunxiao pushed all the cards over and pointed at them, saying:
"This, this hand can't be played, it's already set."
"A perfect hand!"
Yang Jiao gasped in surprise, then suffered a heart attack.
You can't play mahjong with these gods!
His own merits have been given away.
There's no denying it now; a full eight hundred years of merit have been given away.
Just as the third round was about to begin, Yang Jiao couldn't sit still any longer.
She had the fewest coins. Although the three of them had just started playing, Huang Bang had a lucky streak and was sure to win money during the newbie protection period!
Yang Jiao immediately made a hasty exit to urinate, first washing her hands thoroughly, then secretly finding three incense sticks from somewhere, lighting them with her magic, and going inside.
The four Zhao siblings looked at her with puzzlement.
Yang Jiao walked up to Zhao Gongming without changing his expression, bowed, and said:
"Take it."
Zhao Gongming: ? ? ?
As deities, they have temples in the human world and occasionally receive incense offerings, but these are relatively few.
The main problem is that they don't have a clergy position now, so they aren't very well-known.
Zhao Gongming dared not accept it, and asked in confusion:
What is this for?
How could Yang Jiao say that she was praying to the God of Wealth before playing mahjong? She solemnly handed the incense forward again:
"Don't ask, please, take it."
Zhao Gongming's eye twitched, and he took the three incense sticks with one hand.
Then he sat quietly to the side, holding the incense stick.
The God of Wealth is receiving incense! A good omen!
Yang Jiao prayed silently in her heart:
"May the God of Wealth bless me, may the God of Wealth bless me, may wealth come from all directions, and may I become rich, rich, rich!"
As the wisps of smoke rose, Yang Jiao sat down boldly and began his third round.
"All hands won by self-draw!"
"Come on, bring out your merits, each person for eight hundred years!"
Make it all back in one go!
Starting from the fourth round, Yang Jiao sighed inwardly, "My luck is so-so this time."
Bixiao had just drawn a pair of one-bamboo tiles, and after spinning around, she drew another one. Excited, she stood up and exclaimed:
"I'm going for a Kong! I'll go for a Kong of the One of Bamboo!"
Yang Jiao became even more excited! She jumped up, snatched the one of bamboo, and said apologetically:
"I'm sorry, Lady Bixiao, for stealing the spot. Thank you for your four hundred years of merit."
After playing five rounds in a row, Yang Jiao earned over 7,000 years of merit from the Three Immortal Maidens! Keep in mind that she only received 2,000 years of merit for saving thousands of people in Guanjiangkou!
Indeed, there are benefits to playing with gods.
When it was time to start again, the Three Immortal Maidens sensed something was wrong.
How can one person win alone?
All eyes turned to Zhao Gongming, who was sitting to the side watching the card game while holding incense sticks. And so...
With a flick of their sleeves, the three sisters each produced three sticks of incense.
He handed it to his older brother:
"Brother, could you help us with some too?"
Zhao Gongming: ...
"I can't get it."
But how could the three girls, who were having such a good time, possibly let him go?
When they started playing mahjong again, Yang Jiao stole a glance at Zhao Gongming and saw that he was now holding incense sticks in both hands and had several sticks stuck in his hair...
After the fair match began, Yang Jiao's luck wasn't so good.
He regretted that he should have secretly burned incense behind Zhao Gongming's back, thus accumulating merit for over three thousand years.
I'm heartbroken.
These three thousand merits are enough to make the Great Sage grow a few more hairs.
The four played mahjong until dark, and in the end, Yang Jiao won five thousand years of merit.
Bixiao lay sprawled on the mahjong tiles, still seemingly addicted. Even though she had lost over a thousand years' worth of merit today, the thrill of playing such an exciting game still had a significant impact on her.
He looked at Yang Jiao with admiration in his eyes.
Said:
"You're such a funny little girl, you must come to Three Immortal Islands to look for us often."
Yang Jiao was the big winner, and immediately began happily fiddling with the merits she had earned, nodding:
"Yes, yes, I will definitely go."
Bixiao, fearing she was being tricked, offered a tempting offer:
"If you go to the Three Immortals Island, I will definitely give you a good treasure as a thank you for teaching us how to play cards."
Yang Jiao's eyes lit up.
Can you do this?
If we teach people how to play Dou Dizhu, Upgrading, and Texas Hold'em, we might as well get several treasures.
The Tongtian Sect, led by the Tongtian Sect Leader, possessed the most magical treasures! They were also generous in bestowing them upon their disciples; even the Three Immortal Maidens of Sanxiao, though outer disciples, received so many that they were overwhelmed.
Yang Jiao was very envious.
Seeing her gaze shift, Lady Yunxiao tapped the tassel on her head and said:
"You are so interesting, Master will surely like you. It would be fate if you could become our junior sister in the future."
Qiongxiao looked at the young card player and agreed with her older sister's words:
"Yes, Master is stubborn. He's arguing with Master Yuanshi over some worthless immortal body. In my opinion, you little girl are much more interesting."
Yang Jiao also had some reservations about the mention of immortal bodies.
The Celestial Venerable of Primordial Beginning is very strict in accepting disciples, only accepting those with immortal bodies. Wasn't he himself rejected because of his aptitude?
The requirements for direct disciples of the Chan Sect are stringent. How extraordinary must someone be to be someone that both Yuanshi Tianzun and Tongtian Jiaozhu want to take as a disciple?
Yang Jiao was very envious.
Such a physique must be above that of an immortal.
Otherwise, it wouldn't be so desirable that two of the Three Pure Ones would want it.
Zhao Gongming only put down the incense stick after it had burned out, and shook his head at the three girls:
"Master was not only interested in the immortal body, but also made a deduction based on the unusual movement of the Primordial Purple Qi a few years ago. However, the Heavenly Dao is obscured, so it is difficult for them to find out."
Upon hearing the name "Primordial Purple Qi," Yang Jiao fell silent, trying her best to minimize her presence.
The Primordial Purple Qi resided within her, but due to her low cultivation level, she could not unleash its true power.
Yang Jiao thought to herself, if she didn't have a master when she became a saint, then... could she be considered a saint's junior sister, Hongjun's disciple?
dare not think, dare not think.
How could such a great opportunity possibly fall into my lap?
Lady Yunxiao, having spent the day playing cards and feeling dejected, bowed to Zhao Gongming and said:
"Brother, I have to go back to practice my skills."
The siblings have rarely met since their eldest brother went to Mount Emei. Today's indulgence was already inappropriate, and Yunxiao needs to quickly replenish her strength.
Watching Lady Yunxiao head to the side room completely shattered any remaining hope Yang Jiao had.
Effort is the only way to increase one's strength, and there is a reason why Lady Yunxiao is the only Great Luo Golden Immortal among the Three Immortals.
Even the Twelve Golden Immortals shared the same mindset as Yang Jiao; they relied on the Sage, while Yang Jiao relied on the System.
Compared to the efforts of the Yang siblings and the Zhao siblings, their efforts were insignificant.
It's just that she has better talent.
Moved by this, Yang Jiao also decided to go back to find Master Yu Ding and thoroughly study his cultivation techniques!
Yang Jiao, not wanting to disturb the siblings' precious reunion any longer, rose, bowed, and took her leave:
"I am sorry to have bothered you today. Thank you for your hospitality, Daoist Master and the three ladies. I will come to bother you again after the Tongtian Sect Master comes out of seclusion."
Bi Xiao, that fiery hothead, really took a liking to Yang Jiao, muttering to herself:
"Master went into seclusion to cultivate an immortal body and didn't take in this interesting girl. I think that's a loss for him."
After leaving Jin'ao Island, Yang Jiao flew at top speed towards Huaguo Mountain.
She needs to hurry up and feed the five thousand years of merit she has won to Wukong so that he can be born ahead of time!
Where is Jade Cauldron Immortal, who was thrown away by Mosquito Taoist?
Yang Jiao shouted into the wind:
"Master Yuding, please don't go too far! I'll study all 40,000+ of your books!"
"You just memorize! I'll just learn! I'll study like crazy, as long as I don't die!"
