He really did succeed in managing the Yellow Dog Village affair, so in theory, the old shopkeeper should teach him the method, but would it really be that easy?
Upon hearing the old shopkeeper's words, Hu Ma felt a vague suspicion, yet he remembered his principles: listen more, think more, and don't ask too many questions.
As for the old shopkeeper, his face showed no clear joy or anger. He paused briefly before speaking lightly, "No need to overthink, this Manor lacks a manager and someone who can hold their own. I'm willing to teach you, and the faster you learn, the better."
"But learning this method means entering the Path. The danger within is likely beyond what you can imagine right now. Are you prepared?"
Hu Ma took a deep breath and replied seriously, "If I can learn this dharma method, I'm not afraid of anything."
"If the Shopkeeper is willing to teach me this dharma method, even if I don't call you Master, I will remember this kindness."
