Chapter 24: The Apprentice Is Being Bullied, The Master Cannot Stand By
"Tu tuk!"
The spiritual consciousness is invisible, but when it is blatantly attacked, a straight white water line can be seen on the lake surface with naked eyes.
The exploded water droplets were like bullets, shooting to the shore, and the weeping willows and trees were trembling.
However, there was no one in sight, and the feeling of snooping and snoring disappeared without a trace.
Xu Xiurong didn't dare to be careless, and she sank into the lake, only one head was exposed on the water surface to look around with vigilance. Her spiritual sense spread and shot. After confirming that no one was present, she showed suspicion:
“Is it because of the wrong perception?”
With formations blocking, there are only a handful of people who can sneak in silently in this Imperial Heaven Prison, and those people cannot be so bored.
So the answer is, the suspicion in the nervousness... Xu Xiurong breathed a sigh of relief, and the peeping just now could not linger.
"Master, what happened?" Suddenly, a sound came from outside the clouds and mist.
Xu Xiurong thought for a moment and pulled out of the water.
The black hair was wet and pressed against her fair cheeks, and she was so beautiful that she couldn't stop. With a move of her hand, she took a look at her robe on the shore, and turned around on the lake, and then she returned to normal.
At the same time, unzipped the formation, looked at the female disciple who was rushing toward him, and said lightly: "Nothing."
"Really?" A girl wearing a lotus leaf-colored round-neck skirt, with a beautiful face, braided hair on the back of her head, and bangs on her forehead were full of suspicion.
Xu Xiurong glanced at her: "What if it is?"
Mu Yaoyao's eyes, which were clearly black and white, turned and said with a smile: "I must have heard it awkwardly."
Xu Xiurong lightly tapped her chin and said "Yeah", quite satisfied with this answer:
"I've been divined by my teacher. It's not suitable for practicing tonight. Let's go back with me."
Mu Yaoyao said "Amazing" and complained in her heart: You clearly said that when you went out, you said that it was suitable for practicing tonight.
The beauties of all sizes returned to the wooden courtyard. On the way, Xu Xiurong remembered something and asked: "By the way, today's monthly exam results were released, how are the recruitment of new disciples?"
Logically speaking, she shouldn't have paid attention so late, but she was late because she was in seclusion for the past few days.
Mu Yaoyao was dancing with a smile:
"This monthly exam is interesting. The rumored that Ji Ping'an was the top student. He handed in most of the blank papers, but solved the big questions. Li Jianhou was alarmed."
Xu Xiurong was a little surprised. She had also paid attention to the name Ji Ping'an at the beginning, but the follow-up gradually faded. Unexpectedly, she made a big splash again.
I just haven't entered the Qi-raising Realm for a whole month, and my talent is not very good.
However, when the girl talked about Huang He, Xu Xiurong's eyes flashed and she said, "The five elements are balanced? Why didn't you tell me earlier?"
"Didn't you say that you will not disturb your injuries when you are in seclusion?" The girl felt very aggrieved.
"..." Xu Xiurong was speechless, raised her hand to hold her forehead and asked, "So, that Huang He has not made a choice yet?"
The girl sighed: "Don't think about it. I've asked about it. The benefits promised by the other hospitals are so great. You can give Peiyuan Dan the first one. Our current situation cannot be robbed of others. And..."
"and?"
"Today's enrollment was not going very smoothly. Several good rankings were taken away by other hospitals."
Xu Xiurong pursed her lips, her eyes slightly dim, and comforted her disciples, "The results cannot be anything. It may not be bad to recruit some Si Chen who is in the back."
Among the fifth courtyards of the Imperial Heaven Supervision Bureau, the Wooden Court was originally ranked low, especially when it suffered a severe blow some time ago, but now it is seriously damaged, so naturally it cannot compete.
...
...
At noon the next day, the Qinglian Xiaozhu.
When Huang He hurriedly carried the food box and pushed open the yard door, he saw Ji Ping'an sitting by the pond feeding fish.
The blue and white fish food pot in his hand was heavy, and the koi in the pond was swam anxiously, but Ji Ping'an was distracted.
To be precise, since the young master returned early last night, he began to look at the pond and be in a daze... It is very different from the past.
Huang He was confused, but he knew the right amount and didn't ask. While greeting, he placed the food on the stone table.
"How is the harvest?" Ji Ping'an washed his hands in the pond, rolled up his sleeves and sat at the table.
Huang He said excitedly in his tone:
"As you told me, today I deliberately inquire about the facts and facts of each branch, and I really got a lot of information.
"The strongest comprehensive strength is the Jin Yuan under the command of Li Jianhou. It is said that Xue Hongjian intends to join, and then the two hospitals are equally strong. Shi Jilun set up a small group and is talking to the two hospitals on behalf of a group of Si Chen to strive for more benefits...
"The earth courtyard is not in conflict with the world, but the harvest is not bad. The weakest one is the wood courtyard at present... Moreover, I heard a piece of news and I don't know whether it is true or not."
"What news?" Ji Ping'an pinched the chopsticks, picked up the green pepper and stir-fried meat and put it in his mouth.
Huang He said: "Several branches are poaching privately, preparing to pry Si Chen who was interested in joining the wooden courtyard."
Ji Ping'an swallowed the food and said curiously: "Why?"
Huang He said:
"The Fifth Courtyard is fighting internally. There have been many intrigues with each other in recent years. The situation in the Wood Courtyard was still in good condition, but before the New Year, Xu Jianhou went out once and fought against a strong enemy. He suffered a serious injury and continued to recuperate after returning.
"The other several courtyards took the opportunity to take action, but I don't know what the price they paid, so that the big disciples of the Muyuan were confused about a group of people defecting... and with other blows, the Muyuan was at the bottom all of a sudden.
"Not only that, I heard that someone wanted to push Xu Jianhou to step down and replace a new Jianhou to take charge of the wooden courtyard. Isn't this a god-given opportunity? According to the rules of the institute, each branch also has "assessment", or a set of rules set by the National Normal University... One of them is the "admissions" score...
"If the wooden courtyard cannot recruit people this time, and Xu Jianhou's injury... might really change the world."
As Dr. Luke, Huang He has heard of factional struggles in the Imperial Heaven Prison. After obtaining information, he immediately analyzed it very well.
But he didn't notice that Ji Ping'an, who was having a meal, looked a little unfair.
No wonder... The girl Xiurong's breath was disordered and complicated, which was caused by her injury.
As for the power struggle, the Grand Master of the Great Zhou had experienced too much in his life and had long been indifferent. He had only been dead for ten years, and his disciples had fought with each other to this point.
after all……
"It's a bit ugly." Ji Ping'an sighed and thought to himself: If the apprentice is bullied, you have to do something as a master.
He put down his bowls and chopsticks, got up and went back to the house to change into an ordinary long gown, took off his umbrella from the wall, and walked out.
"Young master, are you going out?"
"Yeah, I have nothing to do, go to the capital of God." Ji Ping'an said casually.
Huang He was stunned for a moment, took a few bites of the rice, and stood up and said, "Then I will be with you, huh, what are you doing with an umbrella?"
"You stay and don't have to follow you." Ji Ping'an said casually, "It will rain later."
It's raining? The young master is becoming more and more joking... Huang He raised his head, looked at the blue sky above his head and the sunny sky, and complained in his heart.
He sat down again and waited for lunch. He was about to clean up the dishes, but suddenly he felt the light dimming. He raised his head and saw that there was a cloudy cloud above his head, the cold wind blew on his face, and the ink bamboo rustled.
Then the raindrops drizzle down.
...
In the capital of God.
A young man in a white robe walked quietly in the rain, admiring the city intently.
As the capital of the Great Zhou Dynasty, this city not only preserves the history of blood and fire, but also mixes with the atmosphere of fireworks from the prosperous city.
Especially when it rains, there are ancient buildings, girls holding various oil paper umbrellas on the street, and a row of willow trees with no end on the embankment... all exudes a poetic and picturesque look.
"The rain of apricot blossoms is wet with clothes, and the wind of willows is not cold when blowing on the face."
Ji Ping'an's long-standing sentences surged in his heart, thinking that he still couldn't make good poems after living for a thousand years.
After giving a boring sigh, he withdrew his gaze and touched his facial features that had been modified with a human skin mask on his face.
Stepping up the big stone bridge that was slippery in the rain, crossing the rushing water of the Hunhe River under the bridge, reaching Chang'an Street on the other side, and walking towards a certain place with the memories in my mind.
When you step on the earth, the spiritual essence in the Qi sea is turbulent and you are used habitually in the Star-Star Magic.
The world began to fade, silent, and circles of yellow ripples that no one could see were spreading in a circle with his boots trampling on the ground as the center of the circle.
Immediately, the details around me came to my mind.
In the clinic next to the street, an apprentice held a palm-leaf fan and was bored to take care of the small red mud stove.
When the scholar rolled up his long gown and trotted with a book under his arm, the oil-paper umbrella rotated slightly and raindrops splashed.
As the carriage was driving, it ran through the potholes, and the curtains of the carriage were lifted up, revealing the woman's face in an instant.
Ji Ping'an felt all this, and a Taoist rhyme that ordinary people could not perceive appeared and disappeared from time to time.
Finally, he stopped outside a pawn shop with a good location, raised his head and examined the plaque of "Jinshiju" as confirmation.
Stepping in, a guy who was dozing off behind the counter woke up: "Do you think the guest is redeemed?"
Ji Ping'an said, "I want to see your boss."
(The manuscript is urgent...)
