Chapter 52: Mentor of the Cold Moon
After saying goodbye to the fat tutor, Su Xiaran returned to his room. Thinking that he saw the back of Mentor Cold Moon at that time, he thought of the Fang family sisters who were still in the plum forest now, and he couldn't hide his longing.
It would be great if they could really return to the Xuanyun Sect again. Su Xiaran remembered again what they said about Gongsun Hongyan, who entered the Xuanyun Sect Sword Academy at the same time as him. Seeing that her cold temperament is indeed somewhat similar to Fang Xin, it is no wonder that she can get the favor of Mentor Cold Moon.
But even so, he still didn't regard her as an inner disciple. It seems that the Fang family sisters have a pivotal position in the heart of the Cold Moon Mentor.
I thought of the sword academy competition that the fat tutor said a month later. If there is no inner disciple of the Cold Moon Mentor, will he be ridiculed again? Thinking of this, Su Xiaran couldn't wait to run to Merlin now and tell the Fang family sisters that their Cold Moon Mentor had never given up on them.
Let them return to the Xuanyun Sect, but before that, Su Xiaran needs to contact the Cold Moon Mentor first. Otherwise, Mentor Cold Moon didn't know who Su Xiaran was at all, how could he believe what Su Xiaran said.
Su Xiaran, who put these things down for the time being, practiced the sword. She's not one to get into the nitty-gritty. At this time, she still needs to think long-term, and she certainly won't rush it.
I thought it would be good to find an opportunity to write it down. Anyway, there is still a month to go, and then you can sneak down the mountain to inform the Fang family sisters.
Su Xiaran, who was resting in the room, put down the matter first, and prepared for the future swordsmanship academy competition. And so it went on for another ten days or so. Life is just like this.
Although it is a little boring, it is also fulfilling, and in this process, Su Xiaran's swordsmanship is also improving rapidly. Until this day, there was an unexpected person.
The Xuanyun Sect's Sword Martial Arts Academy has a total of two female instructors. One is the former mentor of the Fang family sisters, Tutor Hanyue, and the other is Mentor Yu. And this mentor Yu is the current mentor of Shen Jiaqi and Gui Xiangjun.
On this day, Su Xiaran and Han Bai practiced swordsmanship in the courtyard as usual. But not far away, Shen Jiaqi and Gui Xiangjun came to their side. Since the entrance examination, Su Xiaran has never seen these few women in the Sword Martial Arts Academy.
The two came from a distance, and Su Xiaran and Han Bai also stopped what they were doing and looked at them inexplicably. Gui Xiangjun lay on Shen Jiaqi's ear and said a few words. I heard Shen Jiaqi say arrogantly: "Han Bai, I heard that you are good at swordsmanship, so you will tutor me during this time." ”
Shen Jiaqi and Han Bai have no intersection. In this way, talking to Han Bai in such a commanding tone, Su Xiaran wanted to know how Han Bai would answer, this Shen Jiaqi was also funny, and when he came to this Xuanyun Sect, he would treat himself as a big lady.
Su Xiaran looked at Shen Jiaqi's expression and couldn't help but think of her sister-in-law Su Xiayan. Ever since Su Xiaran came to this Xuanyun Sect, he has never seen Su Xiayan again. still remembers the day she entered the palace, her kind reminder, and she felt like a world away.
I don't know what happened to her in the palace, although when she was still in Su Mansion at the time, Su Xiayan tried all kinds of ways to target Su Xiaran. But Su Xiaran never took her to heart.
When I think of her now, I only think that she is just a pitiful person. Looking at Shen Jiaqi's appearance, it was very similar to Su Xiayan at the beginning, with no one in his eyes, and he felt that he was the center.
If it weren't for the fact that he killed Li Wenshu for Achu, Su Xiayan might have been so brutal for the rest of his life. Occasionally do it against yourself, but it's all painless. What she shouldn't have was to kill Su Xiaran.
Otherwise, Su Xiaran would not have forced her to this part. Thinking of Su Xiayan's eyes when she looked at Su Xiaran before entering the palace, it made Su Xiaran's heart ache faintly. Now seeing this Shen Jiaqi, who is very similar to Su Xiayan before, Su Xiaran prayed that she would not end up like Su Xiayan.
Because Su Xiaran could see that this Shen Jiaqi was a little rude, but her nature was not bad, so she was afraid that in the end, in an environment like Xuanyun Sect, she would lose herself for various reasons.
Han Bai was also surprised when he heard Shen Jiaqi's tone of his order, and said, "Miss, we don't know each other, and I have no obligation to tutor you." After speaking, he went to the side to practice his sword, and no longer looked at Shen Jiaqi.
Seeing that Han Bai ignored herself, Shen Jiaqi stomped her feet in disgust, and said slightly angrily: "Stinky Han Bai, you dare to ignore me, do you know who I am, you just teach me, I promise to give you generous treatment, you come back !!"
But Han Bai was practicing his sword on the side as if he hadn't heard it, but Shen Jiaqi was so angry that he sulked on the side. Turning his head, he sprinkled his anger on Gui Xiangjun's body.
yelled at Gui Xiangjun: "Didn't you say that I could find Han Bai, he doesn't pay attention to me at all now, now you are happy!" ”
Seeing that Shen Jiaqi was angry, Gui Xiangjun hurriedly leaned into her ear and said a few words. Their eyes looked at Su Xiaran from time to time, and Su Xiaran felt furious in her heart, not knowing what Gui Xiangjun said to Shen Jiaqi, so she looked at Su Xiaran with Han Bai's eyes.
After Gui Xiangjun finished speaking, he stayed aside and said nothing. Shen Jiaqi walked to Su Xiaran's side and said, "You are Qiu Yi, although you are a little thinner, but I heard that you are on par with Han Bai's swordsmanship, if you can spare Miss Jiaoben, how much silver, you can mention it casually!" ”
Su Xiaran didn't rush to answer, thinking that this Shen Jiaqi and Gongsun Hongyan would usually go on missions together, although the relationship between the two was not good, but at least they knew each other, if they could meet the Cold Moon Mentor through Gongsun Hongyan, it would be a good way, plus, if you have silver, you won't earn it in vain.
Su Xiaran's cunning eyes rolled, and she said, "Miss Shen, since I said so, it's too bad for me to refuse, but my expenses may be a little expensive, and Miss Shen is rich and naturally does not lack this money." ”
Listening to Su Xiaran praising herself, Shen Jiaqi, a nervous young lady, naturally liked this very much, and said: "Count you as a kid, you are much better than Han Bai, you mention it." ”
Su Xiaran quietly stretched out five fingers. Shen Jiaqi glanced at it and said disdainfully: 'Fifty taels? Okay, I'll let Xiangjun bring it to you later. ”
Su Xiaran shook his head and said, "Fifty taels? Didn't I look down on Miss Shen, no more, no less than five hundred taels, what do you think? ”
Shen Jiaqi didn't speak, but Gui Xiangjun, who was beside Shen Jiaqi, rushed to say: "You took advantage of the danger of people to dare to open your mouth and pit Jiaqi." It's too much. After saying that, he looked at Shen Jiaqi.
However, Shen Jiaqi said indifferently: "Five hundred taels is five hundred taels, but you must ensure that when the time comes to compete in the Sword Martial Arts Academy, you will make me stand out among the fourteen outer disciples, and let Han Bai see how powerful I am, who made him look down on me." ”
Looking at Shen Jiaqi's appearance, Su Xiaran said with a smile: "Miss Bao Shen is satisfied." ”
After speaking, Shen Jiaqi asked Gui Xiangjun to go to her room to withdraw money. Gui Xiangjun could only reluctantly withdraw money. Thinking about how easy the money around Shen Jiaqi was, it was cheaper than Su Xiaran.
Shen Jiaqi was also eager to study, and after taking the money and giving it to Su Xiaran, she said, "Qiu Yi, what are you going to teach me today?" ”
Su Xiaran glanced at Gui Xiangjun and did not speak. Shen Jiaqi naturally realized what Su Xiaran meant, so she said to Gui Xiangjun: "Xiangjun, you go back to the courtyard first, you are not needed here." ”
Gui Xiangjun originally planned to take advantage of this opportunity to learn some secretly, but he didn't expect Shen Jiaqi to drive him away, and said dissatisfiedly: "Jiaqi..."
still wanted to wait for Shen Jiaqi to leave her, but she didn't wait for Shen Jiaqi to change her mind, so she could only leave in disgrace. When she left, she glared at Su Xiaran, thinking that she was meddling.
Su Xiaran didn't care about this, since she had received Shen Jiaqi's money, she had only one obligation to teach Shen Jiaqi. After speaking, he also tried his best to teach Shen Jiaqi. Tell her that swordsmanship is not only about fists and legs, but also about strength and dark strength.
After a few days of getting along, Shen Jiaqi's attitude towards Su Xiaran has also improved a little, and her tone is not so condescending. The two sat on the stone steps together, and Shen Jiaqi said: "Qiu Yi, seeing that you are the same age as me, who taught you these swordsmanship, it's so powerful." ”
Su Xiaran smiled and said, "Self-taught." After speaking, he lowered his head and drank the water in his hand, and did not say anything more.
And Shen Jiaqi looked at Han Bai who was practicing swords on the side from time to time. She has been here with Su Xiaran for the past few days, but she hasn't said a word to Han Bai. Han Bai completely ignored their existence.
made Shen Jiaqi sulk all the time in her heart. said to Su Xiaran: "Qiu Yi, you must teach me well, so that Han Bai will be impressed by me." Hearing her say this, Su Xiaran only felt that she was a child.
Thinking about how good it would be if Su Xiayan could not go against himself at the beginning, and be coquettish with himself like Shen Jiaqi. But in the end, it came to the point of life and death, which is also sad.
Su Xiaran kindly opened her mouth and reminded Shen Jiaqi: "I will naturally try my best to teach, but I think Miss Shen is relatively simple, so be careful of being used by people with intentions." ”
Shen Jiaqi obviously didn't understand Su Xiaran's words, she only felt that she was pretending to be deep, so she didn't continue to say anything to her.
The two of them sat on the steps, and Shen Jiaqi seemed to remember something and said: "By the way, Qiu Yi, I am going to go on a mission with Gongsun Hongyan tomorrow, you go with us, I feel disgusted when I look at her cold face, you go together." ”
Su Xiaran had planned to meet Gongsun Hongyan through Shen Jiaqi, but now that he has the opportunity, he naturally will not refuse. So he agreed. Shen Jiaqi didn't stay long. Let her gather at the gate of the Sword Academy tomorrow, and then say that she will go back and prepare.
Su Xiaran didn't keep it anymore. After she left, Han Bai stopped the sword in his hand, walked up to Su Xiaran and said, "I don't understand, why would you teach an idiot for five hundred taels." ”
When Su Xiaran saw Han Bai say this, he said with some dissatisfaction: "This is my business, since you don't want to teach, don't talk cool here." ”
Han Bai was deflated by Su Xiaran, so he didn't pay attention to Su Xiaran anymore, but returned to his room. Su Xiaran was thinking about how to open her mouth to tell her when she saw Gongsun Hongyan tomorrow and see the matter of Mentor Hanyue.
It was only about half a month away from the Sword Academy Dabi, and it seemed that the Fang family sisters would be brought back as soon as possible. Tomorrow is a great opportunity not to be missed.
Thinking like this, Su Xiaran arrived at the gate of the Sword Academy early the next day. After all, the first time you meet, you have to make a good impression on others. Gongsun Hongyan is a more rigid person, and it is good to be punctual.
It didn't take long for Shen Jiaqi to come with Gongsun Hongyan. Seeing such an unfamiliar face as Su Xiaran, he asked Shen Jiaqi, "Who is he?" ”
Shen Jiaqi introduced and said, "He is Qiu Yi, the outer disciple of Tutor Yan Kuan, everyone has seen it during the entrance assessment, don't say you don't know him." ”
After listening to Shen Jiaqi's introduction, Gongsun Hongyan glanced at Su Xiaran a few times, and then said, "Let's go." "I didn't say anything more. Shen Jiaqi came to Su Xiaran's side and said, "Look, she's like this, fierce, I don't even bother to go with him." ”
Su Xiaran didn't take Shen Jiaqi's tone, but walked behind Gongsun Hongyan.
