CHAPTER XXIX
After eating, the three of them talked and laughed all the way to the Mo Family School. The atmosphere of the school today is a little strange, in the huge hall, the disciples sit on the left and right sides, ignoring each other, there is no trace of Mr. inside and outside the school, and there is no appearance of going to class at all.
Entering the hall, Mo Qingyao went straight to the pile of disciples on the right side and sat down, chatting with the people around him.
Then the meaning is clear, the people sitting on the left are the disciples of the sect, and the disciples of the sect are sitting on the right, and the water and fire on both sides are incompatible, although there is no friction on the surface, but secretly they are all competing with each other.
Mo Ling followed Nan Ruoli to sit in the corner, just in time to have a full view of the situation of the disciples on both sides. The disciples of the split family whispered, their faces filled with eager expressions, while most of the disciples of the sect family kept their faces calm and did not say a word.
Looking at the situation, the disciples of the sect family also felt that today was unusual, and it was only a matter of time before Mo Si'an noticed that something was wrong-hey, what about Mo Si'an?
Mo Ling's eyes swept back and forth in the hall several times, but he didn't find Mo Si'an's shadow, so he heard Nan Ruoli on the side whisper: "Don't look for it, Mo Si'an is not in the school." ”
"Then does he know about today's events?" Mo Ling moved to Nan Ruoli's side and asked quietly.
"Do you know what the difference is, he's been huddled at home for days. "I see...... What about the disciples of the other sects, why do they all have gloomy faces?"
Nan Ruoli was silent for a while, and then said: "Don't look at them as sect disciples, the relationship inside is very complicated, no one wants to cause trouble, no one wants to be involved, and even the usual interactions are very cautious." ”
"What do you mean by that?"
"You're so smart, you can figure it out if you think about it a little. Nan Ruoli pursed her lips, "This is a trip to troubled waters, they can't sacrifice their lives, but on the other hand, they don't dare to fall to Mo Si'an's side easily, it's not easy to do it horizontally and vertically, so they just pretend not to know." ”
I see, Mo Ling nodded secretly, but he didn't expect that the sect family was not monolithic. But why is Nan Ruoli so clear about these things......
"Is this also the case in the Nan family's academy?" Mo Ling couldn't help but ask.
Nan Ruoli glared at Mo Ling, turned her head, and only after a long time did she throw out a sentence, "Only I am like this." ”
I'm the only one like this - that is to say, either the Nan family's sect disciple is only Nan Ruoli alone, or only Nan Ruoli is isolated.
"You're really lonely...... Mo Ling sighed, and suddenly understood a little why Nan Ruoli liked to stay with Mo Qingyao.
After about a cup of tea, the conversation between the disciples of the separate family became lower and lower, and there was a little more restlessness and uneasiness in the whispering, Mo Ling pulled Nan Ruoli's clothes and asked in a low voice, "What are we waiting for?"
"Wait for someone. "Who are you waiting for?" "I don't know, I heard that this person knows where Mo Si'an is hiding. "Is it the 'powerful big brother' in Yao'er's mouth?"
"I don't know," Nan Ruoli shook her head in confusion, "Maybe." I've only heard of a teenager who will come and help. ”
The "big brother" that Mo Qingyao and Nan Ruoli don't know, who could this be, why is he willing to take the risk to go against Mo Si'an. Before meeting the boy, the seeds of doubt had been planted in Mo Ling's heart.
After another half an hour, the rumored young man still did not appear, and there began to be a commotion among the disciples of the separated family, and all kinds of speculation and uneasiness spread rapidly, and it didn't take long for the air to become hot.
Mo Ling and Nan Ruoli glanced at each other, and they both saw confusion and doubt in each other's eyes. I'm afraid it's not a way to go on like this, first of all, we have to calm everyone's emotions - as soon as Mo Ling stood up, he heard a voice from one of the disciples say, "We can't wait any longer, let's go first!"
This proposal was quickly agreed to by everyone, but then the problem arose - everyone didn't know where Mo Si'an's home was and where to go.
Everyone discussed for a while, and decided to ask the disciples of the sect. This decision was a bit bold and risky, and everyone pushed it back and forth, and finally pushed it on Mo Qingyao's head. Mo Qingyao was also straightforward, stood up and walked straight to the sect disciples. Seeing this, Mo Ling hurriedly got up and stopped Mo Qingyao, "Let me help you ask." ”
"No," Mo Qingyao shook his head, "Brother Ling is waiting for me here, I'll come when I go." ”
What is this, Mo Qingyao is a junior among the disciples of the family, and it is really unreasonable for a group of twelve or thirteen-year-old hairy children to push the risk onto a nine-year-old girl.
"No, no, no, I'll help you ask. Mo Ling grabbed Mo Qingyao and didn't let go, Mo Qingyao couldn't break free, so she had to pout, "Then let's go together." ”
That's a good idea. Mo Ling looked around, found a disciple of the sect who looked the most kind, and accompanied Mo Qingyao to this person, and before he could speak, this person took out a book from under the table, turned his head to cover his face and asked, "What are you doing?" ”
Mo Qingyao pursed her lips unhappily: "Let me ask you, where is Mo Si'an's home?"
"I don't know, don't ask me. The man buried his head completely in the book, "You ask someone to go." ”
Mo Qingyao looked at Mo Ling, who shrugged his shoulders, so the two of them left the table and came to the other disciple.
"I don't know, you ask someone else to go. This disciple's reaction was exactly the same as the previous one.
"I haven't asked anything, and you just say you don't know. Mo Qingyao was very unhappy, "You know that you don't want to say it." ”
"If you say you don't know, you don't know, I don't know if you ask or not. ”
The other party has this attitude, and it is really difficult to find out what news, and then the two of them have found several disciples, but they have found nothing. Mo Qingyao lost her patience and puffed out: "Don't ask, they won't say anything anyway." ”
"Did you give up so soon, why don't we try again?" Moling advised.
"They're all going to die, how can you ask, I want to ask. ”
"Hmm......" Moling muttered for a moment, "it's okay, I'll help you ask and try your luck." ”
Mo Ling took Mo Qingyao and picked a corner seat, and the disciple sitting behind the table saw the two of them and immediately got up to leave. Mo Ling grabbed the disciple's wrist and said gently, "Little brother, don't go, I'm just here to ask you something." ”
The disciple struggled hard but couldn't break free, shocked and angry, "What do you want to ask, don't come and ask me." ”
"Don't worry, sit down and talk about it first-" Seeing that the disciple didn't follow, Mo Ling simply said directly, "Mo Si'an hasn't come to the academy for a few days, you know about this, right?"
"Know, know, everybody knows this, what are you asking for. ”
"Well, do you know why he didn't come?"
"I don't know, how do I know!" When the disciple heard this, he panicked a little and began to struggle again.
Mo Ling frowned, vaguely feeling that something was wrong, so he changed his words and said: "He hasn't come to the academy these days, including Mr., everyone is very worried about his situation, so everyone is wondering if they can find him and ask what is going on." ”
"It's a lie," the disciple said immediately, "You want to find Mo Si'an, it's not because he doesn't come to the academy to teach at all. ”
"Oh, yes," Magic Ling was a little surprised, "then what do you think we went to find Mo Si'an for?" ”
"I-" The disciple realized that he had lost his words, and quickly covered his mouth, "I don't know. ”
"Where did you probably hear the strange rumors," Mo Ling said with a smile, "I guess if you heard it from other sect disciples?"
The disciple's face changed suddenly, and he shook his head vigorously with a tense expression.
"I guess too, you don't care about each other, how can you hear any news from other sect disciples, are you right?"
The disciple hesitated for a moment this time, then nodded uncertainly.
"Actually, this incident is not only related to Mo Si'an, but also related to a separate disciple, you know who this separate disciple is. ”
The disciple nodded first, then shook his head, "I don't know. ”
"To be honest, I don't agree with this action," Mo Qingyao on the side heard this, not only widened his eyes and looked at Mo Ling, but Mo Ling pretended not to see it, and then said, "After all, everyone is a student in the same school, and it's not good to hurt the harmony." And for the sake of one or two people, everyone is involved, if it makes a big fuss, no one will be able to end it, are you right? ”
"Yes. The disciple nodded very dryly this time.
"What's more important is that I am not related to that disciple of the split family, and I can't risk my life for him - although Mo Si'an usually always thinks that he is the son of Mo Zixu's family, in the end, it doesn't have too much to do with you, does it?"
"Everyone is just afraid of him, they don't want to mess with him, and they don't want to have anything to do with him. After listening to Mo Ling's words, the disciple's face softened a little, and the words became more.
"Looks like we're thinking the same thing. Mo Ling nodded with satisfaction, "On the surface, it seems that it's just Mo Si'an bullying his fellow disciples, but behind it may be the cruel oppression of the sect family to the split family. ”
"Then why are you still staying with them, don't you persuade them?" the disciple asked suspiciously.
"Hey, how can it be so easy, let me ask you, do you dare to persuade Mo Si'an?"
"Don't dare. "That's right, it's the same thing on my side. ”
"Is there a distinction between the high and low levels of the divided families?" the disciple asked in surprise, "I thought that the separation of the families was all the same heart. ”
It was also the first time that Mo Ling had heard of the division of levels, and he was slightly stunned, and immediately said, "Although it is not as clear as the sect family, in fact, there are also divisions. ”
"I see, this is the first time I've heard of it," the disciple nodded in relief, "Then the Mo Qingyao family is probably of a very high level." ”
"Why do you say that?" Mo Ling pressed Mo Qingyao beside him with one hand and asked indifferently.
Because every time she was against Mo Si'an, she dared to do it in the school. ”
When Mo Ling heard this, he really didn't know whether to be happy or not, "Let's not talk about this for the time being, have you ever thought about how to solve this matter calmly?"
"What else, those people in the family will make trouble if they like to make trouble, anyway, the bad luck won't fall on us in the end," the disciple snorted lightly, "I advise you to draw a line with them as soon as possible, so as to save bad luck." ”
"Hey, if I could do this, I would have done it a long time ago," Mo Ling lowered her voice, "but if you really want to stand by and watch, it's hard." ”
"Why?" "It's very simple, the disciples of the entire academy are involved, and whoever wants to escape alone will soon become the target of public criticism. Similarly, although none of your sect disciples are willing to get involved, once the matter gets big and the people above the sect are held accountable, who can escape. One of the simplest questions, the same student in the academy, made such a big fuss, but they all flatly denied knowing the inside story, who would believe it. ”
"This ......" After listening to Mo Ling's words, the disciple didn't know how to answer for a while.
Mo Ling continued: "So I thought, if we can solve this matter calmly, it would be the best, no one should be alarmed, and it would be up to us disciples to solve it." What do you say?"
"That's true, but how do you want to solve it?" the disciple immediately asked.
"If Mo Si'an doesn't come forward, this matter will be difficult to do, if he comes forward, we can solve this matter through discussion, after all, it is just a contradiction between two disciples. ”
"Mo Si'an is impatient and insists on going his own way, can he really rely on persuasion to work?" the disciple was a little uneasy.
"You have to try it to find out. Mo Ling's face was worried, "The biggest problem now is that I don't know where Mo Si'an is hiding, if I wait for him to take the initiative to appear, I don't know when I will go." ”
The disciple was silent for a long time, and when he saw no one left and right, he crawled to Mo Ling's ear and whispered, "I can tell you where Mo Si'an's family is, but you can't tell others that I said this." ”
"What-" Mo Ling was startled, "you actually know Mo Si'an-"
Before he finished speaking, Mo Ling's mouth was covered by the disciple, "Shh, most of the disciples of the sect know about this, and those who don't know are basically the disciples of the separate family." You agree to my terms first, or I won't tell you. ”
"Of course, I won't tell anyone. Mo Ling nodded cautiously.
"That's good. When the disciple heard this, he was finally relieved, so he whispered in Mo Ling's ear. After speaking, the disciple returned to his seat, took out the book, and read it casually.
Mo Ling bowed his hand and thanked him, and calmly returned to the disciples of the branch with Mo Qingyao, who was extremely excited. After a while, the atmosphere of joy and excitement spread throughout half of the school, attracting the disciples of the sect on the other side to look at each other frequently. Mo Ling thought that if he stayed here any longer, he would leak the news sooner or later, so he and Nan Ruoli made a calculation, and left the school with everyone in a mighty way, heading in the direction of Mo Si'an's house.
Shortly after everyone left the school, a masked figure appeared on the roof of the school. The figure looked at the people in the distance, not knowing what they were thinking, and after a while, the figure disappeared in a leap, and the entire school fell silent again.
