Chapter 80: Alternative Punishments
Li Ji looked at the iron cavalry and his party gradually moving away, and secretly sighed in his heart: "The world is in chaos, the wind is surging, heroes and heroes from all over the country gather in the mountains and forests, occupy the mountains and forests, occupy the mountains as the king, fall the grass as the cowards, smile proud of the rivers and lakes, free and uninhibited, but they are less than one ten-thousandth of the "Thirteen Xuanjia Cavalry Monks". They saw through the red dust, escaped into the empty door, had peeled off three thousand troubles, the green lantern of the cold temple accompanied by the ancient Buddha, can live for the rest of their lives, but they are well versed in the darkness of the world, and they can not bear the moral degradation, the lack of education, people are like ants, and their lives are like grass mustard, so they resolutely return to the vulgar and carry the banner of salvation, although they commit the killing precept with their hands, but they are bodhisattvas and bodhisattvas, and they are admired by all generations!"
Xu Shixi looked ahead and said, "Let's go, it's not early, let's try to get to Shennong Villa as soon as possible, maybe we can catch dinner." ”
After this trouble, the four of them had no time to linger around, so they sped up their pace and rushed back to Shennong Villa in less than two hours.
Overlooking the panoramic view, the outline of the mountain villa is surrounded by green trees, flowers and plants, and the lifelike cliff statue of Tiandao, which makes people feel like sitting in the clouds, wandering in a fairyland, infinitely happy.
Come in front of the village, see two huge white marble lions, deeply shocked, the four of them are all a dignified, slightly dressed clothes, with great respect, into the main door.
There is a lacquered gold plaque on the main entrance, and the plaque is engraved with the four big characters of "Shennong Villa".
Standing under the lacquered plaque, the four of them were reluctant, hoping that the Spirit Assembly would meet again, and then waved goodbye one by one, and then returned to the village.
Shennong Villa has three halls and seven courtyards, built against the mountain, intricately intertwined, and the kamikaze courtyard is located between the highest peaks, Yunfeng.
Li Ji and Xinyan finally climbed to the cloud peak, but they were already sweating profusely, and came to the Kamikaze Temple, which was dinner time.
Qifa Daoist and Xin Liu led the five disciples into the dining hall, and when they heard that Li Ji and Xinyan had returned safely, the five senior brothers were so happy that they ran to the gate of the courtyard to greet the two of them like a gust of wind.
Senior Brother Wei Hu said with a happy face: "Senior brother, let me take a good look at whether there are any missing arms and legs." ”
When Li Ji saw all the senior brothers, he said happily: "Senior brother, don't come to harm! Are you all okay, are you all okay, are you all right, are you okay with your master and sister?"
Wei Hu said: "Senior brother, rest assured, everyone is very good, in the afternoon, the master received a report from the inspection disciples, saying that you returned safely, the master was so happy that she cooked herself, and there was a big meal in the evening......"
Hearing this, everyone's mouths chirped, and it seemed that they hadn't eaten a decent dinner for a long time.
After laughing, the second senior brother Yang Kanqi said: "Little junior sister, why did you go to the Blood Maple Forest, the whole person is thin and black?"
"Really?" As soon as I heard that I was tanned, I was so frightened and anxious, the so-called white covers a hundred ugliness, which girl is willing to become black, so I hurriedly ran to the fairy well in the yard, the complexion on my face was the same, it turned out that I was teased by the second senior brother, and I couldn't help but be so angry that I wanted to have a seizure.
"Daddy!" Suddenly seeing that Qifa Daoist and Xin Liu had come to the door, Xinyan fluttered, like a swallow returning to the nest, burrowing into Xin Liu's arms, sobbing endlessly.
Xin Liu said distressedly: "Okay, it's home, silly boy! The boss is not young, and he is still crying, so that the senior brothers can see the joke." ”
Qifa Daoist coughed lightly, and said with a calm face: "Let's all come in and eat, otherwise the food will be cold and it won't be delicious." ”
When everyone saw that the master's face was serious, they didn't dare to make another time, so they obediently followed the master and the master into the dining hall, and the senior brothers took Li Ji's hand, all of them were very happy, squeezed their eyebrows, and entered the table happily.
Everyone sat down in order of eldest and youngest, and the Qifa Daoist suddenly asked lightly: "Old Seven, has the task I gave you completed?"
Li Ji sighed in his heart, he had already thought that the master would ask this question in various tones, but he didn't expect to ask in such a relaxed situation, so he stopped the chopsticks in his hand and reported respectfully: "Master, the disciple was ordered to hunt the werewolves in the Blood Maple Forest this time, because the disciple was incompetent and failed to complete the task, please ask the master to surrender!"
"I know you don't have the ability!" Qifa Daoist smiled coldly, then stopped speaking, and just buried his head in eating.
Li Jizheng was surprised why the master didn't lose his temper, and the senior brother Wei Hu secretly kicked him, hinting that he should just bury his head in food and keep silent.
Li Ji was slightly stunned, and he didn't dare to ask again, so he had to bow his head and eat violently, he hadn't eaten a decent meal for several days, and today he finally sat down so relaxed, and he actually ate twice as much as usual.
"Lao Qi and Xinyan came to my room after dinner. "Daoist Qifa finished eating the first time, threw down a sentence and entered the wing room to make tea with the help of Xin Liu.
Li Ji was secretly surprised in his heart and said, "What's wrong with Master today? It's so cold and unusual, it won't be that you have to go to his room and be trained again, right?"
Thinking of this, I couldn't help but feel uneasy, and I didn't know what punishment I was going to accept?
Senior Brother Wei Hu saw his thoughts and said, "Senior brother, don't you know, Master has been working hard for the Spirit Conference recently, so his temper is strange and abnormal, which is understandable. ”
Li Ji exclaimed, "What's wrong with the Spirit Conference?"
Wei Hu said slowly: "The quota for the Spirit Conference has come down, and all the disciples of our Divine Wind Academy will participate. ”
Li Ji was overjoyed and said, "Isn't this a good thing?"
Wei Hu smiled bitterly: "A good thing is a good thing, but with our current strength, even if we are all on it, it would be good not to embarrass the master on stage." ”
Li Ji thought about it sideways, Senior Brother was right, according to the current strength of the Kamikaze Academy, it was indeed inferior to other palaces.
With the experience of participating in the Spirit Conference many times, Wei Hu squinted his eyes and said quite experiencedly: "So today may be the last big meal, everyone is full of food and drink, and they are also a little confident when they are punished for training." Also, for the training of the Spirit Conference, the master will definitely make a big move next. ”
When Li Ji heard the senior brother say this, he also felt that there was some truth, he was already full, but after hearing this, he lowered his head and ate violently, and after a while, he ate all the leftovers on the table.
His gobbling up like this made Xinyan and the senior brothers laugh again.
After the meal, Li Ji hiccuped deeply, covered his round belly, and couldn't straighten his waist.
After rinsing his saliva, he and Xinyan came to the master's room tremblingly.
Qifa Daoist and Xin Liu were sitting in the side room making tea, and when they saw the two of them, they were unusually polite and beckoned the two to sit down and chat.
After sitting down, he suddenly asked, "Old Seven, how long have you been in Shennong Villa?"
Hearing this, Li Ji secretly said that it was not good, and he didn't understand the meaning of the master's question. Normally, this sentence has two meanings, one is a good thing, promotion or promotion, and the other is to roll up and leave.
He knew that good things would not happen to him, so he wiped the sweat from his forehead and said uneasily: "Master Yuming, the disciple has been here for more than a month. ”
"It's been more than a month, and time flies so fast!" Qifa Dao Chief muttered to himself, then pointed to a plate of chicken legs on the table, "Our academy cultivates immortals and cultivates the Dao, and it has always been vegetarian, and it is rare to see fishy meat. Today is a great day for you and Xinyan to return safely, and Shi Niang specially cooks a plate of braised chicken legs, one is to suppress your shock, and the other is to encourage you to move forward bravely in the Spirit Conference. Today, you and Xinyan eat more, and if you go to the Blood Maple Forest, you can report it while eating!"
When Li Ji heard this, he almost didn't cry, and the master asked him and Xinyan to eat up the basin-sized pot of chicken legs, knowing that they wouldn't eat so much when they were eating just now.
Xinyan happily thanked her, and picked up the big chicken leg and ate it.
Li Ji didn't dare to disobey his master's orders, picked up the chicken leg and tasted it, although the taste was very beautiful, but he couldn't swallow a piece now.
But the master's order was difficult to disobey, so while holding the chicken legs, he reported what happened in the Blood Maple Forest to the master and the master, and Xinyan exaggerated some terrifying, weird, and hidden weapons from time to time on the side, and as a result, the master and the mother were pale for a while, and they were extremely nervous.
Xin Liu also hugged Xinyan from time to time, crying out in distress, glaring at the Qifa Dao Chief, if it weren't for Li Ji on the side, the two would probably have already quarreled.
It took Li Ji more than an hour to finally finish the blood maple forest and his party, and he didn't dare to bite the chicken leg in his hand.
After hearing this, Daoist Qifa's expression changed greatly, and he said: "This trip is hard, although I have not been able to complete the task, but I have also saved some reputation for the righteous path of the world, I will draft a document overnight and report it to the senior brother of the owner." Now, you and Xinyan have eaten up this pot of chicken legs, so let's nourish it. But from tomorrow onwards, the two of you must not be lazy, and you must also practice swordsmanship with your senior brothers, at least strive to lose at the Spirit Conference!"
"Yes, Master!"
Li Ji didn't dare to disobey the master's order, looked at the whole pot of chicken legs, and almost vomited out all the dinner just now, the blood maple forest task was not completed, and he was still happy that the master did not give a punishment, but what he never expected was that the master gave a reward instead, and this reward was more terrible than punishment.
After a long time, Li Ji kept burping with a shy stomach, and walked out of the master's wing with the door frame, and when he walked to the courtyard outside, he saw that there was no one around, so he grabbed Xinyan who was walking in front and asked, "Senior sister, how can you eat such a big pot of chicken legs?"
Xin Yan opened her eyes and smiled: "Our Kamikaze Academy has a secret method for practicing martial arts, which can convert the food you eat into energy through specific exercises and store it for emergencies, so no matter how much you eat, you won't feel supported." ”
Li Ji only felt dizzy for a while, and said: "There is still this kind of exercise in the world, no wonder you are okay no matter how you eat, I am almost dying......"
"Haha, it's a blessing to be able to eat!" Xinyan chuckled and slipped away with a puff of smoke.
Li Ji covered his stomach and slowly walked back to his room, he wanted to vomit but couldn't vomit, he was extremely uncomfortable, he tossed for a long time, and finally fell asleep, he was dreaming all night, the world was full of chicken legs in his dreams, and he was scared out of a cold sweat after waking up, and then vomited wildly, and it was repeated several times overnight, extremely tormenting, and he couldn't survive and die.
So I swore in my heart that I would never eat chicken legs again.
