Chapter 218: Doing the opposite way
Lin Yunsheng is a teacher at Shishan Academy.
His family lives in Chang'anfang.
Chang'anfang is not a good place to settle down in the entire Chang'an. There are almost no wealthy families in Chang'an who build houses here.
The place is relatively remote, so it is not convenient to go anywhere in Chang'an City.
It's quite convenient to get out of the city.
But except for those who have to work outside the city, who always leaves the city without any trouble?
Lin Yunsheng has always wanted to replace the yard.
But he had only eaten enough for two generations, and had no surplus.
After taking the third prince's line, his ancestral tomb was smoked.
Sometimes, if something that has really been planned for half a lifetime, it is only a breath in the end.
That night, Shangguan Zhaoyi escaped from Shishan Academy, and he really pointed out a clear way for the third prince and his group of people.
If Shangguan Zhaoyi had caught that night, he would not be able to escape the credit.
Only then can he show it in front of the third prince. Even if he cannot directly replace the yard this year, he will definitely not escape next year.
But it's just a little bit different.
Sometimes he would wake up while sleeping, and he couldn't help but think, if Shangguan Zhaoyi ran a little slower and was caught before entering Yankangfang, wouldn't that be true?
Really unwilling to give up.
Even though the Chinese New Year was approaching, the surrounding yards were all decorated, which seemed lively and joyful, but when he looked at the direction of Yankangfang, he couldn't help but feel depressed.
When the rain stopped, someone sent a letter.
Letter from Shishan Academy.
"At this time, there should be no one in Shishan Academy, so what else can I do?"
He was a little surprised. When he opened the letter, his whole face turned pale in an instant.
This is a dictionary.
He told him that he would not have to go to Shishan Academy to teach after the New Year.
Lost his job.
The reason is that the main subject he taught was errata, but there were many typos in his own works.
Lin Yunsheng is not a fool.
He knew that this was deliberately slandering him, so he just found a reason to let him be idle at home.
In fact, what he mainly taught was not errata, but to identify falsehoods, and to teach students how to distinguish the authenticity of ancient paintings and ancient books.
But what's the use?
When he looked at the seals in the letter and the seals of the supervisor in it, he knew what was going on.
Shishan Academy is a private school.
Most of the funds come from tuition fees and donations from students' families, and from wealthy gentry and businessmen.
But how much money is spent, how much it is given to all the teachings, and whether it is reasonable, must be reviewed.
Pei Yunqi's supervisor has such power.
Of course he could state the above, but who dares to offend the people in charge of Shishan Academy and Pei?
He looked at the letter in front of him, and his blue face gradually turned pale.
His eyes turned dark and he was so angry that he vomited a mouthful of blood.
...
As soon as Gu Liubai returned to Yankangfang, he was told that someone was waiting for him at Mingyue Pavilion.
As soon as Hongxiu met, he said to Gu Liubai, "You are really busy."
Gu Liubai looked at her strangely, "I'm quite busy."
This is a fact.
During this period, he was running around, practicing and dealing with things, and indeed he was not idle for a moment.
Hongxiu said, "Then do you still have so much leisure to meddle in your affairs?"
"What's wrong?" Gu Liubai looked at the woman in disbelief.
He knew that this was Wu Yanhong's maid, and he also knew that he was a maid in name, but in fact he was the personal guard beside the noble man, and his status was probably slightly worse than Duan Hongxing next to the fifth prince.
But no matter how bad the people around the nobles in Chang'an City shouldn't be so awesome, they actually went to Yankangfang to teach themselves a lesson?
Hongxiu ignored his feelings and said in a deep voice: "When I entered Yankangfang, I saw several things. A yard was demolishing the wall, saying that the wall occupied more than a foot of the next door. An old woman cried and asked her daughter-in-law to forgive her. There were also several people blocking the family and asking for someone to pay off her debts... When I heard that it was all your Mingyue Pavilion in charge of these small things. At most, Canglang Sword Sect will compete with you for swords for more than half a month. If you run around and don't you tell me, you are still distracted by these things?"
Gu Liubai laughed as soon as he heard this and said, "Just as you say, I am quite nosy, but you are very careless."
"I'm afraid of wasting someone's hard work." Hongxiu glanced at him and said, "There is good news and bad news. Which one do you want to hear?"
Gu Liubai didn't spoil her at all. He immediately smiled, shook his head, and said, "No one wants to listen."
“??”
Hongxiu couldn't help but want to stand up and leave, but after holding it in a while, he couldn't resist it. He could only pretend that he had never said what he had just said.
She took a deep breath and said slowly, "My wife feels that since even Cui has intervened in the battle between Canglang Sword Sect and your sword, they probably will use any means, which may include the kind of pill that instantly improves combat power, so she wants to help you get two Phoenix Blood Pills."
Gu Liubai's face suddenly turned solemn, "She is considerate, Phoenix Blood Pill? This pill is powerful, but can it still be done? Isn't the pill formula gone long ago?"
"The whole Chang'an, or the entire Tang Dynasty, may only get two." Hong Xiu frowned slightly, and she felt that the boy was still behaved when he got the cheaper. "The good news is that we got one, and the bad news is that there was another one that was taken away by someone. She asked someone to inquire, but she guessed that it was very likely that it would eventually come to the hands of Canglang Sword Sect."
Gu Liubai immediately shouted, "These people are shameless. Each of them has higher cultivation than me. They still have to use this kind of pill to deal with me? Is there anyone bullying people like this?"
Hongxiu couldn't help but say, "You all know that these people have higher cultivation than you. You still don't concentrate on practicing and waste so much effort on the east and the west?"
"You said this. If I don't go out for a run, how could a good person like your wife help me?" Gu Liubai smiled, "Thank you very well for me, and I'll go to greet her after the New Year."
"Save some time, don't waste my wife's Phoenix Blood Pill." Hongxiu took out a wooden box and put it in front of Gu Liubai. He said angrily: "There are some good healing pills inside. If you take the Phoenix Blood Pill, you don't die from the Canglang Sword Sect, you can take these pills to heal your wounds."
"Thank you!" Gu Liubai opened the wooden box and looked at it, then quickly put it away.
Hongxiu was too lazy to talk to him anymore, so he got up and said goodbye.
Gu Liubai was a little happy when he looked at her appearance.
Is this Hongxiu, Hongxing, a Chang'an woman with a red letter, almost the same temperament?
These two people look quite similar.
If you have some skills, you will easily be disgusted with others.
People are not bad.
"Don't hurry to leave, there's something else." He waved his hand, called Hongxiu to stay, and then continued, "When you go back later, please tell your wife. In fact, it doesn't matter if you give someone a Phoenix Blood Pill. We can change our thinking and ask your wife to help find out to see if there is anything that enhances the properties of Phoenix Blood Pill."
Hong Xiu frowned immediately, "The phoenix blood pill is extremely fierce. If it is strengthened, no one can stand it."
Gu Liubai smiled, "It's just that people can't stand it, it's not that I want to use it. Who uses this to me? Will I add some materials to him then?"
Hongxiu was stunned, looked at Gu Liubai, and commented seriously, "It's quite sinister."
"I never get tired of deceit. If you see your wife, don't forget this matter. I'm afraid that you will forget it later." Gu Liubai explained seriously.
Hongxiu didn't understand the meaning and said, "How could I forget it?"
"I won't forget it now, I may forget it later." Gu Liubai smiled slightly and said, "There is another thing. I have a female cultivator in Yankangfang. She is about the same age as you, and she also practices swords. I want to find a sword master in Chang'an to see if he can still use the sword. You have come, or give me some advice?"
"What?" Hongxiu sneered, "I'll bring you something for my wife. Do you think I'm not polite and have to find someone to teach me a lesson?"
Gu Liubai shook his head quickly and said, "See what you said, I'm not asking a group of people to beat you up. One-to-one, can someone teach you a lesson?"
Hongxiu pondered for a moment.
In fact, she also wanted to see what powerful female cultivators this young man had.
But she was a little worried, so she spoke out: "The sword techniques I practice are all killing methods and are not easy to control."
"Don't worry, I'll be on the side." Gu Liubai said immediately: "Isn't it easy to observe and learn something? Besides, don't just stab someone in the vital world. You just gave me so many healing medicines. If you don't stab someone in the vital world, are you still afraid of death?"
Hongxiu thought about it, so he agreed, "Okay."
Yin Shiniang, who was sitting outside the Mingyue Train Pavilion, quickly put the melon seeds in her hand, looking excited.
...
After less than a cup of tea.
Hongxiu slowly walked out of Mingyue Pavilion.
Her chest was fluctuating violently, but her face was a little pale.
Gu Liubai kept sending her to the carriage and said with a smile, "Don't forget what I told you."
It was not until this moment that Hong Xiu, who was a little lost, understood why the young man repeatedly said that he was afraid that she would forget the matter.
Her mind is now full of the figure of the female swordsman.
Who is this female swordsman with melon seeds hidden in her pocket and sleeve?
Don't stab someone in the vital world?
She used all kinds of tricks, and she couldn't even get the opponent's side.
He also said that he learned without a teacher and learned from the old sword book.
The key is that she just used a few sword intents and pointed two true energy on her body, then stopped directly, saying that she was no match for her and she didn't need to compete.
This is really harder than stabbing her two swords.
...
"It's not bad, it's progress today." As soon as Gu Liubai returned to Mingyue Pavilion, he praised Yin Shiniang. "At least, he knew that he had two true energy on her and pointed out her flaws. I think this Hongxiu was very excited, so I will think of a way tomorrow and let her choose a student."
Yin Shiniang also liked Gu Liubai.
After all, this Hongxiu is really good at using a sword.
So she nodded and said, "I heard that there is a dry goods store next to Guangdefang that has a sweet and cool melon seeds that are good, but most people can't order them, so you can get some for me."
“…!”
Gu Liubai was speechless.
Don’t you like to meddle in other people’s business the most? Now that you are in Chang’an, you have become the favorite to eat melon seeds?
I was praising you, but I didn't say I wanted to reward you.
And what about the sweet and cool melon seeds? Can they taste delicious?
Hongxiu is so sensible, afraid that the treasure pill her wife has obtained with all her efforts will be wasted, so that I can spend less time on my business.
