Chapter 99: Wine and Beauty.
β¦β¦
"You weren't drunk." After listening to the cloth man's story, Ji Kang was a little incredulous.
Jin Shiming rolled his eyes angrily, "With the amount of alcohol I drink, how can I get drunk if I don't get drunk?" It's just the cause of my teacher's death. Everyone knows that I am a good drinker, and it seems that dying drunk is the best reason to explain my death. β
"That's right, Brother Ji Kang," Jin Shi quipped Ji Kang, "You didn't believe it at first, but then you naturally believed it." β
[Who told you to hold a wine jug all day long, and it is normal to get drunk to death. γ
Ji Kang coughed and said secretly in his heart.
"But why did you help that girl to become a saint?" The middle-aged man said slightly angrily. "What does her sanctification have to do with your death?"
"Who said she had to be sanctified?" Jin Shiming smiled and said, "Actually, she and I both have the same purpose. β
"You're saying she's a false witness?" The middle-aged man was slightly stunned and said, "The same purpose, do you want to-"
"Confused!" The old man who accompanied the scroll was no longer as calm as before, and scolded Jin Shiming, "Do you know what your actions will make Guanhai Academy look like?" β
"Guanhai is long gone, if you let such a person continue to guide the academy, do you think this ship really won't sink?" Jin Shiming asked rhetorically.
The old man was silent for a long time, and finally sighed heavily and muttered, "That's it, let me ask you, you haven't talked about this matter from beginning to end, how do you two know each other's thoughts?" β
Jin Shiming smiled faintly, "Do you remember that girl named Nan Yue?" β
Ji Kang smiled when he heard this, "Brother Jin didn't say that I almost forgot the ten games of chess played by Brother Ji and Nan Yue, so let's say that this girl is the only one in the world whose chess skills can be comparable to Brother Jin." β
"Five wins and five losses, this is probably my biggest defeat so far." Jin Shiming also sighed.
Ji Kang was a little puzzled, "I also watched the ten chess games, and I didn't see Brother Jin have any communication with him. β
Jin Shiming smiled and explained, "Playing chess is a way of communication, and there is a chess language in Go, and it is normal for Brother Ji Kang not to know about it. β
"So you made an agreement at that time?"
Jin Shiming nodded, indicating that this was indeed the case.
"I didn't expect Miss Nanyue to be able to predict today's events, it's really amazing." Ji Kang sighed slightly, "It's no wonder that the kid named Yu Chichan obviously met the requirements, but Brother Jin always pressed him and didn't let him prove the saint." β
"Fortunately, someone has arrived, otherwise I am afraid that I will lose all ten games in two years."
"It's just that I still don't know a little, please ask Brother Jin for advice." Ji Kang hugged his hands with a solemn expression.
"Please."
"I still have some understanding of Brother Jin's character, Brother Jin never cares about any gains and losses, so I think Brother Jin should have no hatred for his teacher in his heart. Why did Brother Jin still agree to Miss Nanyue and achieve today's action. β
Jin Shiming smiled, recalling his chess words with the woman in white many years ago.
"How can you say yes?"
"In this world, only fine wine and beautiful women cannot be disappointed."
"If you have both good wine and beautiful women?"
"Go to the soup and go to the fire, and you will not hesitate."
β¦β¦
Seeing that the woman in red who was sitting cross-legged opened her eyes, the originally quiet square set off a ripple again.
"Didn't it work out?" A disciple said with pity.
"If it succeeds, where will it wake up so early?" Another disciple sneered and said, "If the Holy Attainment is successful, the Guanhai Monument should be used to refine its body, how can it be as unmoved as it is now, and it is rare that it is not rare." β
β¦β¦
"After all, it is a saint, and she needs some foundation, this woman is still too young, and it will not be too late to come back in a few years." Pavilion Master Tang Wei shook his head slightly and sighed.
Qu Li on the side also nodded in agreement, "For this woman, it is a matter of course to prove the saint, just wait patiently." Today's failure to attain sanctification is a setback, but also a tempering, so this woman should have more experience of sanctification. β
Everyone nodded when they heard this, but Tachibana Wei noticed that Qiu Wuhai on the side was rarely silent.
"Brother Wuhai, what's wrong?" Tachibana asked.
Qiu Wuhai shook his head and didn't make a sound, Tang Wei followed Qiu Wuhai's gaze, and happened to see an old man in a robe slowly walking towards the woman in red.
"Why is he here?" Tachibana said with some confusion.
β¦β¦
"Although you have failed to achieve sanctification today, there is no need to be discouraged, the future is promising, and you need to go through countless setbacks and tribulations on the way to sanctification, and it is not bad for you to be able to achieve sanctification at such an age."
Fu Hongchen smiled gently at the woman in red, stretched out his old hand and wanted to pull the woman in red up, but the woman in red stood up as if she hadn't seen it.
For a moment, Fu Hongchen seemed to see a hint of murder in the enchanting red eyes of the woman in red, but he didn't take it to heart.
"Would you like to be my disciple?" Fu Hongchen looked at the woman in red and smiled slightly.
As soon as this statement came out. Many disciples in the square showed envious expressions, you must know that Fu Hongchen is not only the dean of Guanhai Academy, but also many of his disciples are in high positions in the Three Kingdoms of Qin, Wei and Chu, it can be said that even if the woman in red has been unable to become a saint, it will be a smooth road in the future.
"Will you say yes?" One of the disciples said with some apprehension.
"Of course I will." Another disciple said fiercely, "It's a pity that I wasn't the one who was accepted as a disciple by the dean. β
"Even a saint needs to maintain respect for the dean of Guanhai Academy, this is a tradition that has been maintained by Guanhai for thousands of years, and it can be said that even a saint needs to think twice about the words of the dean. To be able to become the dean's disciple, it can be said that no one dares to provoke in Guanhai. β
"This woman can be regarded as the pride of the sky."
However, everyone didn't expect that in the face of Fu Hongchen's words, the woman in red actually laughed, and the mockery in the laughter couldn't be more obvious.
β¦β¦
"I'm sorry," Han Shu put away his smile and said word by word with a blank face, "You don't deserve it." β
Fu Hongchen was furious when he heard this, but he didn't show it in front of everyone, turned around and waved his sleeves and said, "In this case, then I wish you an early sanctification." β
"I haven't finished the consecration today, is the dean so eager to leave?" Han Su raised his red lips and smiled.
"You've failedβ"
Before the words fell, Fu Hongchen couldn't help but stop speaking, only to see the woman in red inexplicably take out a sealed bamboo tube from her sleeve, and then disassemble it, and an intoxicating fragrance immediately floated out of the bamboo tube.
After all the clear streams in the bamboo tube were poured, a hearty laughter came out from the sea monument.
"This wine should only be available in heaven, and the world can get a few floats. Girl, the wine has been collected, and it is time for me to fulfill my promise. β
Immediately, a loud bell rang through the sky.
