Wang Longqi continued:

"At first, they wanted to pay a lot of money for someone who was seriously ill and dying or to buy some death row inmates in prisons...... But they soon discovered that those who came in this way would not be chosen by calamity. ”

"In the end, it was the actual penultimate who died. ”

"As a result, they had to choose from among the candidates who took the exam, and there were many considerations besides being a waste. ”

"For example, don't choose a poor family, don't choose an only child, don't choose a rich and powerful family......"

"Anyway, in the end, I was chosen......"

Speaking of this, he laughed self-deprecatingly: "I still believed in the sage style of a fart at that time. ”

"They all feel guilty about this substitute ghost, so after so many years, an unwritten rule has formed in the academy. ”

"Everyone has to give special treatment to this scapegoat, that's why they're so welcoming to me. ”

"Yesterday, after I learned the truth, I didn't dare to go out. As a result, when I got up to drink water, I slipped inexplicably and bleed a lot from my nose. I was so scared that I wrote you a blood letter and told you to come over. ”

"I don't know why, but I always feel that if anyone can save me, it's just you......"

Wang Longqi finally said.

Li Chu was noncommittal.

Wang Longqi may think too highly of himself,

Slashing the Decay Realm, that is the power that truly dominates the heavens and the earth.

A catastrophe that can't be solved by such a character, can you do it yourself?

But he didn't say anything to hit Wang Longqi, but asked with some confusion, "Is the academy going to let you spread this news?"

"Huh. Wang Longqi sneered again: "How smart these readers are, some people thought as early as decades ago that paper can't contain fire." ”

"Since then, not only have they not suppressed it, but they have deliberately spread the supernatural legends of the Righteous Qi Academy. It also interprets those who committed suicide in the academy because of excessive pressure or failure in the imperial examination into ghost legends. ”

"Over time, many people have heard the ghost stories in the Zhengqi Academy, but they will only be regarded as jokes. If you are serious, no one will believe you. ”

"Anyway, the academy in the world will die every year, who will notice?"

"Most of the time, the dead themselves die in a blur. I'm afraid there aren't many people like me who know the truth. ”

Li Chu listened to it and felt that this method was similar to some modern water armies.

Although he didn't show it on his face, his heart was making waves at this time.

It's not just because of what happened to Wang Longqi.

It's all the more because ...... own thoughts.

Just now, when he heard about the situation faced by the Righteous Qi Academy, a way to deal with it faintly floated in his heart.

I just didn't think about it any further.

I don't want this to coincide with the response of the Righteous Qi Academy.

That's right, the first thing that came to his mind just now was exactly that.

Substitute death.

In this regard, the college has done enough consideration.

Don't choose a poor man, because he may be the hope of generations...... If you don't choose an only child, you won't have a broken family...... If you don't choose a rich and powerful family, you don't have to worry about strong reprisals......

With a waste who does not learn and has no skills, in exchange for a reading seed, even if it is the last position of the Righteous Qi Academy, there may not be a day when he will become a pillar of the court in the future.

This seems to make sense......

But......

In the eyes of outsiders, Wang Longqi may indeed be a gentleman, he has no skills, and his character is not good. It is useless for the family, and it is useless for the country.

But from his own point of view, he is actually a good friend.

From Wang Longqi's point of view, this is even more of an unwarranted disaster.

This reminded him of a classic question that tested human nature.

There are four people on one track, one person on one track, and the train is about to come, and those four people will be crushed to death.

If you pull the floodgates, you can change the trajectory so that one person dies and four live.

With none of them making a mistake, how do you choose?

Li Chu in his previous life once gave an answer without hesitation.

Don't choose.

Because whether it's one person or four people, even though it seems like the latter is a little bit more, it's all a living life.

As long as it involves the lives of others, he does not think that he has power.

Zoom in a little more, and it can be replaced by someone who kills a person and saves a country......

But no matter how big things are, the essence is the same.

As long as it has nothing to do with yourself, it has nothing to do with right or wrong...... Then let things go according to his original track.

I don't have any power to influence it.

No matter how the choice is reversed, his answer will always be no.

But I don't know since when......

It seems that my personality has changed a lot.

Becoming more and more ...... There are no feelings.

When the thought of substitutionary death popped into his head, his first reaction was fear.

Because this kind of cold thought of measuring the weight of life would never have appeared before.

If you think about it deeper, it seems that there is more to it than this reverence for life.

And more generally, camaraderie...... Affection...... Love......

These feelings, which are commonplace for human beings, have not touched themselves for a long time.

Although my former self was also a little indifferent, I would never be numb to this.

There are also emotions such as joy, anger, sorrow, and fear, which are also appearing less and less.

In the past, I was obviously full of fear of the outside world, but gradually, this fear seems to have not appeared for a long time.

On the one hand, the perception of one's own strength has improved, but on the other hand, there are some strange things affecting oneself......

It seems like......

He traced back in his memory, and this subtle change was probably from slaying the water ghost...... No, it started when I stepped into the seventy-first level.

Li Chu faintly felt that if he continued like this, he would probably slide into an abyss.

Ruthless......

......

After a long talk with Wang Longqi, Li Chu decided to check his luck first.

Close your eyes and open your mind.

Boom –

The picture of the entire Zhengqi Academy entered Li Chu's mind in the form of "Qi".

Everything you see, it's very different from the outside.

The "Qi" in the human body is dominated by yin and yang, wrapped in an extremely complex mixture, in which all the qi is complex and difficult to exhaust.

The people in the Zhengqi Academy all have an extremely obvious white gas in their bodies, strong or weak, and their momentum is sharp.

This kind of sharp qi is righteousness.

Since the founder of the academy, it has been passed down from generation to generation.

In addition to the yin and yang qi of ordinary people, there is also a layer of faint, almost transparent aura, which is thin or thick, except for a few people, the difference will not be too much.

This kind of qi is luck.

Qi operates as the outermost qi of the human body, wrapping the human body like a sleeve.

People with good luck tend to walk more freely in the world, but they always have a good time. People with weak luck have to be cautious, but they often have bruises all over their bodies.

In fact, it is the difference in the thickness of this cover.

And the students of the Zhengqi Academy, everyone is wrapped in golden luck!

This kind of golden luck that was produced somehow was extremely dazzling and extremely strong. The flame of someone's luck even reflected half of the mountain wall.

Presumably next year's imperial examination, the champion is expected.

Li Chu remembered Gongsun Zhe, he was also a person who had won the champion, but he was far from having such a strong luck, let alone changing the color.

Could it be that this is also a bonus for students from Zhengqi Academy?

As long as a person enters the Righteous Qi Academy, he can obtain golden qi that is a hundred times stronger than the original.

What's more, such as the person who reflects the mountain wall, can reach almost one percent of the luck of the little koi, which is simply against the sky!

That's right......

The strongest luck in the entire academy was actually the girl sitting next to Li Chu.

Her luck was like a colorful ocean, and the uninterrupted colorful tides were tumbling, hovering steadily above her little head, like a huge halo.

It is worthy of a colorful koi that is rare in a century.

And the weakest luck in the entire academy is also by Li Chu's side.

It was Wang Longqi on the other side.

His body...... No luck.

Not at all!

This is completely abnormal, you know, as long as people are alive, every breath will have a cycle of luck.

There was nothing around him, like ...... Someone kept devouring his luck for a moment.

That's why the penultimate ones will die!

Everyone is wrapped in a trap of luck in order to walk in the world.

But Wang Longqi's sleeve is gone.

As we all know, this is a rather dangerous thing to do.

......

Li Chu slowly walked out of the Righteous Qi Academy.

After the conversation just now, Wang Longqi planned to arrange for them to stay in the Zhengqi Academy for one night.

Li Chu was a little puzzled: "Can Zhengqi Academy be used as an inn?"

Wang Longqi smiled evilly: "Have you forgotten? Now the words of the master, who dares not to listen?"

Seeing that he still had the heart to laugh, Li Chu was a little relieved.

Leaving the little koi to clean up the room, he came out alone.

Not only to get an umbrella, but also to take a quiet break.

Wang Longqi's matter, although he was a little worried, was not so urgent.

It will take at least a few months for luck to kill.

He plans to come back tomorrow and ask the master if there is any solution.

Although the power of the Decay Realm is helpless, the master ...... Maybe you know?

It seems to have become a kind of inertia, and whenever he encounters something he can't figure out, there will be a voice in his heart that says.

Why don't you ask the amazing old Taoist?

What really worried him was the discovery of Fang Cai.

My feelings are draining......

He was shocked.

Does this mean that you may become someone else, or something else that doesn't even count as a person?

And where does this churn come from......

He didn't know.

If it is related to the way of fighting monsters and upgrading, then ...... Why did you come so late?

The road from Zhengqi Academy to the weeping willow alley of Taipingmen is not far.

He strolled in contemplation, and gradually arrived.

There is indeed a weeping willow at the mouth of the alley, which is old and fluttering in the wind, and it has faded a little.

When Li Chu's footsteps reached the moment under this willow tree.

In the alley, in a courtyard, a little girl in green clothes suddenly raised her head, her eyes bright.

She hurriedly turned around, and shouted into the house as she ran, "Miss, Miss! That little Taoist priest is here!"

Inside the room, there was a lot of noise at this time.

Inside, it turned out to be a table of mahjong tiles.

There were four people of all kinds sitting at this table, each with their own characteristics.

On the east side, an old man with a wrinkled face but clear eyes looked dry and thin, but quite energetic.

At first glance, it is the kind of old man who will live a long life.

To the south, there is a strong man with a tiger's back and a bear's waist, and his body is extremely wide and inverted triangle. looks thick and big-eyed, but not fierce, but a little honest - perhaps because of his pitiful expression at this time.

The strongest man at the table was flattening his mouth and sneering, with a look of great grievance.

To the west, a sick young man was wearing a Confucian shirt and a scarf, and his face was pale.

The emaciated one seemed to be able to blow him away with a gust of wind.

Every time he touched a card, he had to cough for a long time before he could play it.

To the north, there was a beautiful woman, not someone else, it was Qin Shuangbai that Li Chu met on the boat.

It's just that this Qin girl met her with Li Chu at this time......

The style of painting is very different.

She pulled up her two sleeves, revealing half of her forearms, and stared at the game with a solemn gaze.

I don't care about the scattered sideburns, only one hairpin is hairpin at will, and I look like a big man.

Whoever played the cards was slow, she also urged from time to time: "Cough after the cards." ”

"Don't look at it, all the sons are here with me......"

"Hey......

She was about to smile, as if she was about to make a gain, when she heard the little maid run in: "Miss!

"Ahh

Qin Shuangbai was startled, hurriedly stood up, touched his hair, and straightened his sleeve.

"No, I can't. She called, "Yuqing, come and help me make up." ”

As if thinking of something, she raised her hand again, pointed at the three people in front of her, and asked, "What am I yours of?"

Old man: "Uncle!"

Strong man: "Big cousin!"

Sick young man: "Second cousin!"

"Oh my God......" Qin Shuangbai stroked his forehead and slapped his backhand on the table.

"It's a niece!"

"Yes, yes, yes. The strong man nodded hurriedly, "It's a niece." ”

Qin Shuangbai glared at him: "It's your sister!"

The strong man's expression became even more aggrieved, as if he was about to cry: "Don't you scold......"

Qin Shuangbai, who had a flowery appearance and a moon-like appearance, rolled her eyes......

She waved her hand: "Yuqing, I'll go and make up myself." You're here, teach me the three of them before you open the door. ”

"Okay, miss, don't worry. Yuqing nodded heavily.

......

Bang, bang, bang.

"Weeping Willow Alley, the second ...... on the right hand," Li Chu muttered, a little puzzled.

I knocked on the door for a long time, but no one answered.

That's right.

Is there no one at home?

He wondered, and finally shouted.

"Is anyone there?"
