Chapter 11: Hypocrisy and Wrongdoing
Ling Jun had the heart to ask a few more questions, but in the dark, a voice seemed to whisper in her ear: "How can you doubt the chief steward? β
"The Mysteries of All Souls is your paradise, is there any doubt about that?"
"Your Excellency is kind, you can't get me wrong. β
......
Lingjun was silent.
Of course, these three words couldn't confuse her, but they made her come to a conclusion: This secret realm of ten thousand spirits may not be a good place, and the lord and the chief steward are probably not only not protecting the wood spirit, but have other plans for the wood spirit.
- Will the Terrans protect the Spirits?
"Just out of the tiger's den, and into the wolf's den. β
Ling Jun had already tacitly acquiesced that she was being targeted by the Heavenly Dao, and at this time, she didn't really sigh at her bad luck, she had to decide what to do immediately.
Smarmy?
Direct debunking?
"I see, the Lord is really a good man. Lingjun imitated Yan Xi's little friend, and asked sweetly and innocently, "When can I see the Venerable Lord?" I want to thank him personally. β
I was tough once in the sealed land before, but I ended up in the current situation, eating a trench and growing wise, Ling Jun felt that he had to grow a few more eyes this time, first pretended to be obedient, and found out the situation clearly.
During her few breaths of silence, the chief steward had been quietly observing her expression.
At first, he suspected that something was wrong with the Ecstasy Array, or that this strange wood spirit was not bewitched by the Enchanted Array, and had even secretly mobilized the formation and was ready to take her down.
But Ling Jun did not show the slightest suspicion, but after being stunned for a while, he seemed to suddenly realize, although his expression did not change much, his eyes were shining, and his words were very sincere......
It seems that this wood spirit has not reacted to his previous stunned - yes, he was hit hard when he gathered the spirit, and his brain was not very good after the transformation, and the spirit clan had a precedent before.
The chief steward failed to see through the heart that had seen everything under her simple appearance, and thought that she was intellectually inferior, and secretly sighed, feeling that this wood spirit did not meet the requirements of the lord.
Ling Jun had never acted before, this was the first time, and she was also very nervous, for fear of being discovered by the person in front of her, so she could only force Yan Xi's well-behaved smile and not reveal half of her emotions.
Suddenly, the chief steward smiled, reached out and rubbed her spirit body's head, "The Venerable Lord is now traveling through the wilderness, and at the same time, he is also trying to find other wood spirits who may be in danger, and it will take a while to return." β
"Then can you tell me before he comes back?" Lingjun blinked his eyes wide, maliciously selling cuteness, "Inheritance Memory said, thank others for preparing gifts in advance. β
The chief steward thought to himself, this is still mentioned in the inheritance memory of the Qingshen Wood, and she will have to ask the other wood spirits later, in case it is incidental to her past memories, then the matter will not be good.
What Ling Jun didn't know was that there were not only bewitching mind maze arrays in the Ten Thousand Souls Garden, but also many formations, one of which was specially used to blind the wood spirit's "past memories".
This is to prevent the wood spirit from having memories of the past, so that he can learn some news that is not conducive to the lord's plan from the mouths of the people, demon beasts and other creatures who pass by it in their memories.
She pretended to be too pure and was about to overturn, but she didn't realize it.
"Okay, Lingjun is really a kind-hearted wood spirit who knows how to repay his kindness. The chief steward smiled and said, "Let's go to Taoranju first, there are still many wood spirits there, all of them are your brothers and sisters, you can get along well." β
Lingjun nodded, with a small look of "I am very obedient and obedient".
One person and one spirit looked like they were separated and rushed towards Tao Ranju.
Β·
Tao Ranju is the school palace of the wood spirits, and the two stewards Li and Liu are also the masters of the school palace, responsible for pointing (misleading) the learning direction of the wood spirits.
Today it was Steward Liu who taught Mu Ling.
He stroked the piano by the clear stream, his clothes and long hair fluttered in the breeze, and the sound of the piano drifted to every corner of Tao Ranju's residence with the wind.
At the end of the song, Steward Liu smiled, and the sun fell into his eyes, making his appearance and demeanor more dazzling.
The wood spirits sitting along the stream on the side praised one after another: "Master Liu is amazing!"
"That's so good!"
"I'd like to hear it again. β
......
After the thirty-five wood spirits finished speaking, Steward Liu stretched out his hand and pressed it in the air, signaling everyone to be quiet, "Okay, have you all learned the fingering techniques that Master just taught and the nine tricks of adjusting the scale according to the fluctuation of spiritual power?"
Zhongmu (learning) spirit (scum): "......"
I'm sorry, we just listened to itβit's all because you played so well, Master!
The wood spirits looked at each other, and Steward Liu took them as acquiescing, smiled and said, "Since this is the case, let's start with Yi Ruyou." β
Yi Ru was the closest wood spirit to him, and when she heard this, her face suddenly turned pale - she shouldn't have grabbed such a position in order to be closer to her master!
Facing the smiling eyes of her master, she couldn't say anything, but took out the piano.
After stroking a song, Yiru herself felt embarrassed, although this song also made the plants and trees grow, but it was completely dependent on her natural ability, not that she really learned the method of using music to stimulate the grass and trees, and she only used one of the fingerings and tricks that the master had just taught......
After listening to a song, Steward Liu just smiled, and did not reproach her for not paying attention to the lecture, but encouraged her: "Yiru's understanding is really good, and this song is also very beautiful, like a fairy sound." β
Yiru's mood suddenly went from hell to heaven, and her eyes were so excited that she completely forgot that she had not learned anything at all, and nodded her head again and again that she would continue to work hard.
Seeing that Yiru's performance was not criticized, the rest of the wood spirits also relaxed.
Let's just say, Master Liu is the most gentle, and he never thinks we are stupid!
So one by one, they began to play freely, and if they could rely on their talent to eat, they would never use those "advanced and difficult to learn" fingering skills, and it felt very good.
Steward Liu really didn't criticize them, but instead pointed out the advantages of each of them, praising a group of wood spirits who couldn't find the north.
Most of the class was happily spent in Steward Liu's encouraging teaching method and the Mu Ling's mixed learning method, and then it was tea party time.
"Master, Master, I heard that the new Wood Spirit has been able to transform recently, is it true?" asked the Wood Spirit Pei Ze.
"That wood spirit is really too slow, I haven't transformed for so long, I've been waiting for a long time!"
"I don't know if it will have any shortcomings after it transforms, after all, it was seriously injured when it gathered spirits. β
......
Steward Liu noticed that when the few wood spirits who spoke mentioned the Qingshen Wood Spirit, they no longer said "younger brothers and sisters", but called "Wood Spirit", and they felt very funny in their hearts - they didn't like that Qingshen Wood Spirit.
"Don't you like the new Wood Spirit?" he asked, as if casually.
