Gu Shengchao got his wish and sat in the school hall to listen to the teacher's teaching, which was something that his parents couldn't think of after they were killed and left in the rivers and lakes.

He knew that his foundation was thin, and he listened carefully to the lectures like hunger, especially the courses of Shui Linglong, and he did not dare to slack off.

Shui Linglong seemed to know what Gu Shengchao wanted to learn, and the teaching content was all aimed at the explanation of these ridiculous articles, which made Yang Qianhui and other rich children very dissatisfied.

After class, someone made a special trip to find Shui Linglong, saying that this kind of content had been learned in the private school, and he wanted to learn the mental formula of martial arts.

Shui Linglong was noncommittal and responded: "What I taught was originally a mental formula, but you just don't know it." The teacher teaches the same content, do you guarantee that everyone can master it all? Everyone's ability to understand and comprehend is different, and their talents and wisdom are different, even though they are taught by the same person, the end result is that everyone learns completely differently, and each has its own merits, isn't it? ”

The students couldn't argue, so they had to give up.

Gu Shengchao knew that Shui Linglong was protecting himself, and he wanted to give her some gifts, but after thinking about it, he didn't know what to give. In the end, after a day's study, he sat at the gate of the outer courtyard and waited for Shui Linglong to come out, and then stepped forward and said, "See Elder Shui, the student wants to invite the elder to drink, I wonder if the elder can appreciate it?" ”

"Okay, as long as it's not the noodle shop you opened, you can go anywhere." Shui Linglong readily agreed, which made Gu Shengchao a little surprised.

The two found a restaurant, found a seat in a secluded place on the second floor, and waited for the guy to bring the wine and meat, Gu Shengchao toasted: "Thank you Elder Shui for your care, the students are very grateful, and I ask the elder to bear with me if I have any offense on weekdays." ”

Shui Linglong is also bold, seeing that Gu Shengchao drank it all, she was not to be outdone, and took a few sips of the wine bowl and drank it. Shui Linglong put down the wine bowl and said, "I don't know something, why are you so short of knowledge, why are you good at kung fu, where did you learn it?" ”

Gu Shengchao pondered slightly: "I can only say that God favors me and there are nobles to help me, just like this time, without Elder Shui's careful teaching, I would not have been able to make great progress." ”

Shui Linglong pursed her lips and smiled: "I see that you are quite honest on weekdays, and it is easy to shoot sycophants, but I like it, if there is anything you want to praise, just say it, I will listen to it." She looked at Gu Shengchao with a smile, her eyes full of tenderness.

Gu Shengchao was so embarrassed that he didn't dare to look at it directly, he poured wine into the wine bowl of the two, and said in a low voice: "What I said is the truth, that book "Explanation of the Formula" really helped me a lot, and many things that I didn't understand suddenly became clear, otherwise I would still be in the dark about many things." ”

"Well, study hard, I'll teach you three or five more days to travel far, and there is no time." Shui Linglong has some regrets.

"Where to go?"

Shui Linglong said with a little loss: "It's not these things in the outer courtyard of Yunqi Palace, now the old man in the outer courtyard is not enough, and there are very few people who can reassure the inner courtyard." To tell you the truth, I was going to go straight out this time, but since I promised to teach you something, I found some reason to stay. ”

"So, you're here to give me a lecture?" Gu Shengchao suddenly realized.

Shui Linglong glared at him, and said faintly: "You only then understand, I almost wasted these days in vain and failed my kindness." ”

Gu Shengchao was flattered and toasted: "The student is stupid, I beg Elder Shui to forgive me." ”

Shui Linglong smiled: "Don't pretend, you and I seem to be old, you saved my life again, call me Linglong in the future!" ”

"How can you be a teacher for one day and a father for life?" Gu Shengchao directly called her name, but still couldn't open his mouth.

Shui Linglong sighed and said a little sadly: "Whatever you call it, I don't know if you can meet again in the future, come, drink." I've long seen that you're not a thing in the pool, so what are your plans for the future? ”

After the two of them drank, Gu Shengchao said truthfully: "If Elder Shui doesn't teach, I will go back to the Dawu Dynasty." ”

Shui Linglong pinched the wine bowl with one hand and shook it, and said with a confused look: "The Dawu Dynasty is vast, how can I find you if I have time?" ”

"The student is temporarily acting as the Evil King in the Valley of the Four Kings, and you can contact me if you find the Valley of the Four Kings." Gu Shengchao didn't want to talk about it, and then he told the truth.

Shui Linglong was stunned for a moment, looked at Gu Shengchao and said with a smile: "I still look away, come, the little woman respects the evil king with a bowl of wine." ”

Gu Shengchao sincerely picked up the wine bowl in fear, "Elder Shui laughed at me, the student is only acting for the time being, and he doesn't know anything about the affairs of the sect. ”

"Once raw and twice cooked, just like the two of us, drinking." Shui Linglong didn't know if she was drunk or borrowed to play, and she didn't have the majesty and rigidity in the school at all.

The two drank until late at night, and then they got drunk and went back to their respective homes.

Gu Shengchao returned to the residence, everyone waited in the east wing of the inner courtyard without rest, Ding Ying helped him into the west wing, helped him sit on the bed, and mocked: "Is the wine good tonight?" ”

"It's delicious, it's good." The ancient saint is still unfinished.

"Is the water beautiful?" Ding Ying asked with anger in her temper.

"It's really beautiful, much more handsome than what she teaches in the academy." Gu Shengchao suddenly felt bad when he spoke, and asked rhetorically: "No, how do you know that I am drinking with Elder Shui, it must be Fang Ju's girl who told you." ”

Everyone crowded into the west wing to watch the excitement, and Fang Ju hid behind Yang Qianhui.

"Okay, you, go behind my back and hook up with other women." Ding Ying was furious, and stepped forward to screw Gu Shengchao's ears.

Gu Shengchao was in pain: "Don't, don't exert yourself, it hurts." ”

Yang Qianhui wanted to come forward to help, but Jiang Wan pushed the door out, she had seen Ding Ying's temper, and when everyone went out, Jiang Wan closed the door and everyone returned to the east wing to sit down and wait for the result.

In the west wing, Ding Ying saw that the blood marks on Gu Shengchao's face were faintly recognizable, and she couldn't bear to let go of her hand at the moment, and sat next to her alone and sulked, tears rolling down one after another.

Gu Shengchao knew that she had misunderstood, and sat next to Ding Ying to comfort her and said: "Don't cry, it must be that Fang Ju's girl didn't make it clear, Shui Linglong will go out in a few days and no longer teach us, I'm not very grateful to others, I specially invited her to drink, it's not what you think." ”

"Then why don't you call me, there must be a ghost behind you." Ding Ying shook off Gu Shengchao's hand aggrievedly.

Gu Shengchao was helpless: "What the hell can you do, in three or five days, people will go away and fly away and never see each other again, I just don't think I have a chance." ”

"Are you sure?" When Ding Ying heard that Shui Linglong was leaving, she immediately became energetic.

Gu Shengchao promised: "If she doesn't leave in three or five days, I'll leave here with you, isn't it okay?" ”

"Retractor." Ding Ying was not at ease.

Gu Shengchao and Ding Ying's little thumb hook assured that after the thumb was stamped, Ding Ying walked out of the west wing with peace of mind, Jiang Wan stood up and asked with concern: "Sister-in-law, where are you going, do you need me to accompany you?" ”

"I'm going to sleep." Ding Ying made such a fuss, felt embarrassed, and went back to the West Ear Room angrily.

Fang Ju, the initiator of this incident, stuck out his tongue mischievously at everyone, followed Yang Qianhui back to the back room, and everyone went back to the house to rest.

Four days later, Shui Linglong called Gu Shengchao aside after teaching and handed him a thick book. Gu Shengchao took it with both hands, it was as thick as six copies of "Explanation of the Formula", and the cover was written with the four big words "Detailed Explanation of the Formula".

"There are so many words, I can't finish copying them even for a month without eating or sleeping." Gu Shengchao made a difficulty.

Shui Linglong smiled like a peach blossom: "You don't have to pay it back, I gave it to you, and if you save me that night, it will be regarded as a favor to repay you." ”

"When will Elder Shui leave, do you need me to send you?" Gu Shengchao guessed that she wanted to stay away.

Shui Linglong sighed with emotion: "We don't need you to send us when we leave tomorrow morning, we have a lot of people, everything is arranged, but we don't know when we can see each other again today." Shui Linglong looked at Gu Shengchao, her eyes looked full of autumn water, and she was reluctant to give up.

"Elder Shui, take care." Gu Shengchao couldn't say a thousand words, but just gave a salute.

"Well, let's go." Shui Linglong waved her hand lightly and turned away, seemingly light but actually heavy.

Gu Shengchao remembered something and hurriedly said, "Elder Shui, wait." He took out the porcelain vase from his arms and strode after it, offering it with both hands: "This is the antidote to the Night Ghost Gate, I got it by chance on the way back to Yunshang City this time, and Elder Shui took it all the way to prevent accidents." ”

Shui Linglong took the porcelain vase and looked at it carefully: "I heard that only the head of the Night Ghost Gate and the five ghosts have an antidote, did you encounter one of them?" ”

Gu Shengchao nodded: "I killed the blue-faced ghost to be smooth." ”

Shui Linglong stared at Gu Shengchao with big eyes, as if she didn't know him, and looked up and down before saying: "I can't see through you more and more, the antidote to the Night Ghost Gate is a treasure that many people can't ask for, forget it, just think that I owe you a favor again!" Shui Linglong left, and the remnant sun swayed out of a graceful figure behind her.

No one made a special trip to teach Gu Shengchao, and he also planned to leave Cloud City, Yang Qianhui raised silver taels to make up for the honorarium owed to him after learning about it, Gu Shengchao insisted not only to bring enough for the road, and the rest was reserved for the daily operation of the noodle restaurant.

The night before departure, the six of them got together to drink, which was regarded as a trip for Gu Shengchao and Ding Ying. During the banquet, Gu Shengchao asked Yang Qianhui what his plans were, and Yang Qianhui said: "At the beginning, I just wanted to succeed in my studies and go back to serve my mother so as not to be bullied by other wives and concubines, but then I thought, what if I go back, I am not forced to marry and stay away from them." I don't plan to go back now, just stay in Cloud City, the four of us work together to open a restaurant, and make the business bigger and happy every day. ”

"Okay!" Jiang Wan was the first to agree, she had long wanted to learn more cooking, which just fulfilled her wish.

The six of them drank and talked happily, and before they knew it, they were all drunk, and they supported each other to go back to the house to rest.

The next morning, Gu Shengchao was the first to wake up, he packed his bags and said goodbye to everyone. During this time, everyone got along with each other like a family, and it was difficult to give up, and Fang Ju was even more affectionate and tearful.

Gu Shengchao and everyone arched their hands and said, "You all go back, there will be a period later." He and Ding Ying marched side by side and faced the rising sun.
