Chapter 34: Enemies on All Sides
Obviously, several teachers, including Yuan Tong, were all shocked by Liang Chen's roar just now.
However, compared to Yuan Tong, the old man with a national character face is not so good-tempered.
As soon as it came up, it was quite a kind of meaning of asking the teacher to ask for sin.
Hearing this, Liang Chen could only step forward and say the words he had just used to fool Yuan Tong as they were.
"I've seen you teach. Just now, a thief came to the disciple's courtyard to do something wrong, but fortunately, the disciple found out in time, so he had no choice but to use a sound technique and drink it back......"
However, Liang Chen's explanation had just been exported when he was interrupted by the old man with a Chinese face.
"So you ruined the old man's Pei Yuan Dan?"
Liang Chen secretly frowned, as if he sensed that things were a little troublesome in advance.
Although this person's cultivation is the same as Wang Linxuan's, they are both in the Liangyi realm, and even slightly inferior, but the identity of the other party is a academy teacher after all.
So Liang Chen couldn't be hard with him.
Fortunately, without waiting for Liang Chen to reply, Yuan Tong on the side smiled and said: "Old Yang, I really don't blame Senior Brother Liang for this, it is Wang Linxuan, a disciple of the outer court, Senior Brother Wang came to look for trouble, and Senior Brother Liang had to alarm you out of self-preservation." β
"That old man can't take care of it!" Yang Huaixian flicked his sleeve robe and said coldly: "Since you ruined the old man's Pei Yuan Dan, you have to come up with a charter." β
Yuan Tong sighed secretly, his face was slightly embarrassed, and he turned his head to look at Liang Chen.
Seeing this, Liang Chen immediately knew that Yuan Tong was not going to wade into the troubled waters again.
So he smiled and asked, "I don't know what kind of charter Yang Jiaoxi wants?"
"Well said. β
Yang Huaixian snorted lightly and said: "The old man won't pit you, a furnace of Pei Yuan Dan can be sold for thirty spirit stones in our academy, and you can compensate according to the price." β
Liang Chen spread his hands: "As Yang Jiaoxi has seen, the student has just been admitted to the academy today and has become a registered disciple, this spirit stone really can't be taken out......
Who would have thought that in the face of Liang Chen's words, Yang Huaixian had already prepared.
"If you can't take it out, it's okay, then you can come to the Immortal Academy in the next year to make me a Dantong." β
"Dantong?" Liang Chen raised his eyebrows slightly and looked at Yuan Tong next to him.
So the latter hurriedly explained: "The so-called Dantong is to assist you in teaching ordinary alchemy, mainly responsible for cultivating spiritual plants, picking original medicines, cleaning the Dan room, and daily cleaning and maintenance of the single furnace, etc., generally by the registered disciples, it can be regarded as accumulating some experience in the field of pills, but because the daily work of the Danfang is cumbersome, it will inevitably delay some cultivation ......"
Hearing this, Liang Chen immediately smiled: "I see, then I want to ask Yang Jiaoxi again, what if I don't agree?"
When the words fell, not only Yang Huaixian, but also several other teachers, including Yuan Tong, also changed their faces.
Yang Huaixian laughed angrily: "Don't agree, heh, it's okay if you don't agree, as long as you won't regret it in the future." β
Liang Chen shook his head and said: "This is not to worry about Yang Jiaoxi, I eat everything, but I never take regret medicine." β
"Good!"
Yang Huaixian stared at Liang Chen's eyes and nodded heavily: "Very good! I hope you remember what you said today." β
After saying that, Yang Huaixian flicked his sleeve robe again, turned around and swept in the direction he came.
The rest of the teachers, looking at Liang Chen's eyes again, were more or less filled with some sympathy, anger, or sighing, but no one said anything more, just said hello to Yuan Tong one after another, and left.
It was only at this time that Yuan Tong turned back to Liang Chen and said, "Senior Brother Liang, you are too impulsive!"
Liang Chen smiled and waved his hand: "Let's not talk about this first, Yuan Jiaoxi will have free time in the future? If you have time, why don't you sit in my courtyard for a while?"
Yuan Tong hesitated for a moment, but finally nodded and sighed, "Hey, it's okay." β
So Liang Chen returned to the house, asked his sister to take out the wine cup and wine jug in the kitchen, prepared a few simple side dishes, and sat down with Yuan Tong at the stone table in the courtyard to drink.
Three rounds of drinking.
Liang Chen asked unhurriedly, "That Yang Jiaoxi just now, is he very promising?"
Yuan Tong sighed lightly and said: "If you want to talk about the beginning, it is not a good idea, but Lao Yang has been in the Eternal Life Academy for many years, and the relationship is complicated, and in the first two years, he was successfully promoted to the fourth rank Dan Master, which can be said to be in the limelight for a while, so your friend protΓ©gΓ© does not know the geometry, you have offended him now, and in the future, I am afraid that you will suffer some harsh treatment in terms of pill resources." β
Hearing this, Liang Chen knew that Yang Huaixian told him not to regret it just now, what was the basis for it.
But the question is, can this thing be stuck with Liang Chen?
Not to mention that Liang Chen's demand for pills is not urgent at all now, even if it really reaches the point where he has to take drugs, he has "The Legend of Liang Xiuxian" in hand, and there is no shortage of pill resources at all!
Not to mention, now Liang Chen has also got a Dan Fang, if you don't give it to me, I will refine it myself!
Thinking of this, Liang Chen was not in a hurry, but smiled and said, "Withhold my pill resources?"
Seeing that Liang Chen didn't seem to take his warning seriously at all, Yuan Tong couldn't help but say angrily: "Don't underestimate this elixir resource! In the future, if you don't have this piece in the academy, it will not only delay your qi cultivation speed and drag down your enlightenment efficiency, but also in some key tasks, it may also put you in danger!"
Speaking of this, Yuan Tong couldn't help but sigh again and said: "Senior Brother Liang, you are good at everything, but your temperament is sometimes too explosive, you have just come to the academy, and you have already offended Wang Linxuan, Fang Shu and Yang Jiaoxi one after another, and you will ...... in the future."
Hearing this, Liang Chen was stunned, and then said: "Fang Shu, I heard that he is a son of the Fang family in the state capital, could it be that he also has power in this academy?"
"That Fang family, as a well-known cultivator in our Cangzhou, is by no means as simple as you imagined, and I have a lot of contacts with Luming Academy, let's just say that this front mountain, Peng Yanxi of Xunlu Pavilion, Peng Jiaoxi, has a relationship with the Fang family, and Fang Shu can be commensurate with uncles and nephews!
Liang Chen was a little big when he heard this, and he could only smile helplessly: "Yuan Jiaoxi should know that whether it is Fangshu, Wang Linxuan, or even Yang Jiaoxi, it is not for me to take the initiative to provoke, if they have to embarrass a poor boy like me who has no background and no backing, I can't help it." β
"That's not what I said...... Yuan Tong said to Liang Chen earnestly: "As the saying goes, it is better to settle the grievances than to settle them, if there is a chance, I still persuade Senior Brother Liang to try to turn the conflict with these people into friendship." β
After a pause, Yuan Tong said again: "Early tomorrow morning, I will take you to Xunlu Pavilion to receive the cultivation materials first, and you can just meet with Napeng Sect Xi, and then ......"
Liang Chen nodded and said, "I understand, tomorrow I will find a way to convey my goodwill to Fang Shu through that Peng Jiaoxi." β
"It's more than that. Yuan Tong groaned: "It is said that Na Peng Jiaoxi and Wang Linfeng also have frequent contacts, which seems to be related to an old case in the Minister's Court. β
Hearing this, Liang Chen shook his head in his heart.
It's just a trick.
After all, the two don't have any real hatred.
But Wang Linfeng is different.
He and Liang Chen are mortal enemies.
Of course, Liang Chen didn't put this on the table, just picked up his wine glass and said, "Today is really thanks to Yuan Jiaoxi's suggestion." β
Yuan Tong waved his hand, had a drink with Liang Chen, and then suddenly lowered his voice.
"I heard before that although Peng Yanxi is the steward of Xunlu Pavilion, his hands and feet are a little unclean on weekdays, and he must be a greedy person for money and profit. β
Liang Chen nodded, wrote it down, and thanked him again.
Next, Liang Chen carefully asked Yuan Tong about the survival of Luming Academy, the secrets of cultivation, and even lace gossip.
The two of them chatted aimlessly while drinking wine, and it wasn't until almost midnight that Yuan Tong said goodbye and went back with a flushed face.
Liang Chen opened the friend list and found that after this meal, Yuan Tong's favorability towards himself had risen from 70 to 73.
Don't underestimate these three points.
If converted to the number of ingots, it is 7200 ingots!
That's seven thousand two hundred taels of silver!
For a while, Liang Chen said that this wine was really worth it.
He turned back into the house and found that his sister had not yet slept, and seemed to be waiting for him with some concern.
"My sister heard everything just now?"
Liang Yuling nodded, and couldn't help asking, "Is it troublesome?"
Liang Chen smiled and waved his hand: "It's not troublesome, at most, it's just a matter of killing a few more people......"
Liang Yuling took a hot towel, helped Liang Chen wipe his face, hesitated for a moment, and finally spoke: "Little brother, if it's really dangerous, it's a big deal, we won't be studying in this Luming Academy......! No matter where you go, my sister can feed you......"
Liang Chen took his sister's hand and said softly: "Don't worry, it's really okay, sister, have you forgotten?" The third elder likes me very much, with his old man here, who in the academy can touch me at all?"
Hearing this, Liang Yuling calmed down a little, and then under Liang Chen's repeated persuasion, she didn't go to the yard to clean up, and went back to the house to sleep.
And Liang Chen also lay on the bed by himself, and couldn't help muttering: "Speaking of which, this old boy Zhang Xingzhi seems to appreciate me a lot, why didn't he appear on the friend list......
No more words all night.
Early the next morning, Liang Chen habitually got up and practiced boxing, then found a cloth bag, took out the white jade toad in the inventory, and wrapped it tightly.
"I've made a lot of money this time, whether you're a miser or a miser, you've got to make a noise for me!"
