Chapter 180: Burning Yourself
We had barely gone before there was a whisper behind us, and I couldn't help but look back. Originally, it was rare for students to talk like this, but today I don't know why, but it's a little strange.
But Ming Yichen didn't give me much time to think about it, so he dragged me back to the small courtyard.
"You can eat lunch by yourself, and you can arrange it yourself in the afternoon."
He turned around and walked away.
"What about you?"
I asked in surprise as I looked at his back. I actually just asked casually, but I regretted it when I said it.
"Madam, are you reluctant to be a husband?"
Ming Yichen's figure flashed back in front of me, looked down at me and asked with a smile.
I bowed my head and didn't answer, and hurriedly dodged back into the house. Fortunately, Ming Yichen didn't chase after him again, so he breathed a sigh of relief.
Although Senior Sister Zhongli would not come over in person in the afternoon class, she was also strict. I arrived at the classroom early and waited, although half of the reason was that I was afraid that I would stay in the house and come back suddenly.
"An An, so early!"
I was looking at the book when I looked up and Shaoqing walked in. I looked at him a little embarrassed, but fortunately he still looked at me with a smile as before.
I just nodded, not knowing what to say. It's just that I didn't expect Guang Shaoqing to sit down next to me, and asked with some worry: "An An, I heard that you are close to purgatory today, how do you feel?" β
"It's fine." I looked at him and shook my head in reply.
"That's good."
Guang Shaoqing smiled and returned to his seat, spreading out the book and drawing rune paper while reading. I watched him draw talismans and couldn't help asking, "Senior brother, will you draw a fixed body?" β
"Yes."
He looked up at me and said with a smile. But it didn't affect the movements of his hands at all, the cinnabar pen ran smoothly in his hands, and he could draw quickly and unmistakably on complex rune paper.
"Can you teach me?"
I was now thinking about how I could trap Shen Yichen for ten minutes, so I was very happy when I heard that Guang Shaoqing could draw a talisman.
"Absolutely."
Guang Shaoqing said and deliberately drew a large piece of white paper and drew it seriously. I watched from the sidelines, and the more I looked, the more I was amazed. All runes are almost made in one stroke, and as long as they are broken in the middle, they cannot be considered successful.
But this talisman is extremely complicated, and Guang Shaoqing still lifted the pen with a wave. But when I look at it, I can't help but feel that my head is two bigger, and I can't even draw the most basic runes now, let alone this talisman.
Guang Shaoqing also specially marked it for me in small characters next to it, so that I could practice part by part first. I secretly thought in my heart that it was no wonder that Ming Yichen would be so happy to expel this condition, I am afraid that only I would be so stupid that I don't think it is too difficult.
I carefully put away the rune paper and sighed. But I didn't expect Guang Shaoqing to sigh as well, and I felt a little strange and looked at him. I thought that my senior brother had always been a bright and sunny man, but now I suddenly sighed and was a little confused.
"What's the matter, senior brother?"
Guang Shaoqing's expression was a little heavy when he looked at me, and I couldn't help but feel a little worried.
"An An, do you feel a little different here lately?"
He looked at me, frowning slightly.
I looked at him blankly, wondering why he was asking. Shaking his head, he said: "I've been here for less than half a month, and I think it's quite fresh everywhere here, and I really haven't found anything different!" β
Guang Shaoqing nodded and said slowly: "Yes, after all, you just came." But have you noticed that the students have been talking to each other lately? β
As soon as I heard this, I quickly remembered the time when I was on campus at noon, and I couldn't help but nod and ask, "What are they talking about?" Could something have happened to the Academy? β
"An An, think about it, even Ming Yichen is here as a teaching consultant now. Isn't that enough? β
He looked a little helpless and a little worried. I also nodded blankly, but it was a little too unexpected for Ming Yichen to appear here.
Thinking about it, I couldn't help but think of what Ming Yichen told me, Dean Gu also had to invite him over. As we were saying this, another classmate walked in, just glanced at us and sat down.
It's just that Senior Sister Zhongli hasn't started classes for a long time today, and I think that when they entered Dean Gu's room together yesterday, their faces seemed to be more solemn.
"No, I'll go to Dean Gu and ask." As I spoke, I tugged at Shaoqing's clothes and walked out.
Guang Shaoqing also hurriedly followed, and both of them walked in a hurry, so they quickly arrived at Dean Gu's door. But standing at the door, I was a little hesitant, I didn't know how to say the identity of Ming Yichen, and I didn't know if Dean Gu really didn't know.
"Come in."
A deep voice rang out from inside the room, it was Dean Gu's voice.
I gently pushed the door and walked in, only to see Dean Gu meditating on the bed at this time. And Ouyang Ze and Zhongli were both sitting on the chairs on both sides, and when they saw me coming in, Ouyang Ze raised his eyes and looked at us, but he didn't say anything.
"Sit down."
Dean Gu slowly opened his eyes and casually pointed to a few chairs by the window. Guang Shaoqing pulled me to sit down, and asked with a smile: "Dean Gu, I see that your face is not very good, are you okay?" β
"It's fine. Ahemβ"
I looked at him and couldn't help frowning, Dean Gu's appearance didn't look like he was fine. At the very least, his face was much worse now than the last time he saw him, and looking at Senior Sister Zhongli's face, he knew that things would not be simple.
"I want to ask you what's going on? He clearly ......"
I looked at them and felt a little anxious, but before I finished speaking, Dean Gu waved at me and said, "I know everything you want to ask, and I also know the identity of Ming Yichen." It's just that now the academy is in danger, so your academy that is less than five years old should go down the mountain and go home this week. β
After Dean Gu finished speaking, he coughed violently, and I couldn't help but be stunned when I heard it. What is this called, please, how can I come before the accident.
Senior Sister Zhongli glared at me, waved her hand impatiently and said, "Let's get out!" β
I wanted to ask something, but Guang Shaoqing pulled me out. We were standing on campus, and his face was very bad. I looked at him and hurriedly asked, "Senior brother, do you know something?" β
Guang Shaoqing looked at me and paused, "Actually, I also guessed, when I first arrived here, I found this mountain a little strange. Later, after slowly understanding it, I learned that the whole mountain is a gossip array, and the place where we are now is the eye of the array.
As for what is locked in this array, it is difficult to say. It seems that it has a lot to do with Dean Gu's injury this time, since it is no longer safe here, why don't I send you back as soon as possible." β
I thought to myself that it must not be a cat or a dog locked in here, and the place I went to this morning was eerie and not at all like a human being. And Ming Yichen was able to blatantly bring in the female ghost of the small well, it seems that there are probably some ghosts or something.
"Senior brother, where is the first layer of purgatory?"
I looked at him and asked solemnly. Guang Shaoqing looked at me stunned for a moment, and then asked, "An An, have you already been there?" β
I nodded, and told him that he had indeed taken me there this morning. And he also cut down the little well female ghost, but he didn't come back without being able to hack it to death.
Guang Shaoqing pondered for a while and said, "It seems that this is really the case, but I don't know what happened suddenly." Things will suddenly deteriorate like this, and you have to let Shen Yichen come over. β
I'm wondering why my brother has become slurred. Just as he was about to ask, a man's voice sounded behind him.
"Looks like you all know?"
As soon as I turned around, Ouyang Ze was indeed Ouyang Ze, he didn't know when he came out, and he was standing behind us eavesdropping. I turned around and glared at him and said, "Is it interesting to eavesdrop on other people's conversations?" β
He smiled lazily and said, "I didn't eavesdrop, I just happened to come out to find you." β
"Looking for us?"
I looked at him, paused, and asked, "What are you looking for us to do?" β
"Don't you want to know what's going on? I came here to tell you! β
Ouyang Ze looked at me with an innocent face, I was very suspicious that what Dean Gu said just now was so dangerous and severe, and he was deliberately bluffing me. Otherwise, Dean Gu would be like that, how could Ouyang Ze still be so calm.
"Aunt Qiao, I suddenly found something?"
Ouyang Ze looked at me and said with a smile.
"What's the matter?"
"I found out that when you get there, there must be nothing good going anywhere!"
He said it with a smile, but I couldn't help but feel the urge to become an adult. I thought you could do it yourself, and you relied on me for everything. Besides, I still don't know what happened, it's just that people are unlucky to drink cold water and stuff their teeth.
"Then stay away from me?!"
I watched him stare impatiently, turned and walked away. But he was pulled by Ouyang Ze, and he said with a smile: "Aunt Qiao, you really don't want to know?" β
I shook my hand a little angrily and said, "I'm not interested in your affairs at all, you better talk to someone else!" Besides, nothing good will happen to me there, you can stay away from me. β
"I'm not afraid!"
Ouyang Ze looked at me with his hands in his pockets and said with a smile.
I was tickled by my angry teeth, and I turned around and left. I thought to myself that if I didn't even beat you now, I would have knocked you all over the head.
"Don't you care about the survival of the city under the mountain?"
Ouyang Ze's voice came from behind, and I couldn't help but be stunned. Although I didn't believe it, I still stopped.
"There are nearly two million ordinary people living in the city below the mountain, and I believe that there must be one of them you care about. So I hope you can help us through this disaster! β
Ouyang Ze suddenly became serious, and I looked at him a little unaccustomed.
"What the hell is going on, how can it suddenly become so serious?"
Guang Shaoqing had been listening quietly beside him, and only now did he stare at Ouyang Ze and ask.
"It's still a bit complicated, so I'll try to make a long story short. But let's go back to the house, the author said, what do you say, Aunt Joe? β
Ouyang Ze suddenly turned his head and looked at me with a smile and asked, a little distracted for a while. After being stunned for a moment, he hurriedly nodded and said, "Okay." β
He walked over and put his hand on my shoulder, and led me into the room where I had been staying. Guang Shaoqing followed, I glanced back at him, and saw that he seemed to want to say something, but in the end he didn't say anything.
"This is the room I lived in when I was a child, and my master specially arranged it for me. At that time, he said that children should learn with a pure heart and few desires....."
As he spoke, he suddenly turned his head to look at me and smiled.
