At the foot of Jinzhong Mountain, the square is opposite to the center, and above the formation of the entire Jinzhong Mountain Mountain Protection Formation, there is a towering air attic quietly suspended.

The attic is all vermilion, and all the building materials are built with fine Tang mahogany, which looks simple and elegant;

Although the attic is not the largest and most majestic among the buildings, it can be seen that it occupies the eye of the Jinzhong Mountain Formation.

The huge attic, but it is very empty and simple, a huge golden silk nan wood desk, listed at the top, on both sides of the desk are neatly and orderly placed six chairs, three on each side, symmetrical and harmonious.

At this moment, there was only a plainly dressed man with a calm and impermanent face, holding a book in his hand, quietly flipping through it, as if he could see something incomprehensible, frowning and soothing from time to time between his eyebrows and eyes.

The rest, I am afraid, is only one or two flickering candle lamps, hanging on a few nanmu pillars, shining on the glory of the hall.

Along the red robe carpet of the desk, all the way out, there is a huge grandstand, surrounded by carved railings, and the entire square in front of you can be seen at a glance.

A black figure came from outside the sky in an instant, so fast that even the fireworks on the candle lights shook violently for a long time, as if they were going to be extinguished at any time!

"Boom!" there was a loud bang, and the attic door was slammed shut!

The man who was quietly flipping through the books suddenly raised his head, and when he saw the person coming, he smiled helplessly, and quipped: "Qin Jian, why did you want to come here, weren't you arranged by the mountain chief to go above to manage the order of the competition?"

Qin Jian hurriedly sat down on the chair above the desk, exhausted and panting, like a lost dog.

He casually poured a glass of water from the desk, poured a mouthful of his throat, and said helplessly: "Don't mention it, I'm entangled by an old guy and I'm exhausted!"

Before, he was just trying to persuade Gao Yan to go down the mountainside and return to the mountain, but this guy suddenly opened his head and remembered something.

Gao Yan locked his neck and asked with a strange smile: "Little Jianjian, you said that last time my student helped the academy catch several big fish, why didn't the mountain chief mention a word?"

Gao Yan looks not young, but his strength is really big, because Gao Yan is small, when he deliberately strangled him, he actually ripped off most of his whole person, and he was like an upside-down onion, almost breaking his waist.

He screamed and begged for mercy, "Although the matter of the academy's assessment of merit has always been managed by me, but the mountain chief has personally opened his mouth to suppress this matter, and we can't do anything about it!"

Just for such a trivial matter, Gao Yan was entangled with him for most of the hour, from the beginning of the begging for an explanation, to the final scolding, listening to Gao Yan all the way, his whole head was buzzing, one head and two big!

If it weren't for Gao Yan's group of little rabbit cubs who committed another crime, he would have taken the opportunity to escape all the way to the wind, otherwise looking at Gao Yan's posture, he might have to have a good theory with him.

As for why he came here, and not on the mountainside, did he dare?

Maybe Gao Yan is in a bad mood and comes to walk around again, a group of old guys above are very thieves, and they will definitely only instruct him to deal with it, they will not be able to see and calm down, and be cannon fodder for others, such a stupid thing, Qin Jian will not do it.

The man who turned the book was not interested in what happened to Qin Jian, but he was more concerned about the embarrassed appearance of the other party, he had known Qin Jian for so many years, and there were few people who could force the other party into such an embarrassment, and he had to seize such an opportunity once.

He smiled and said, "If you can push our tide growers into a desperate situation, it seems that I really have to have a good experience!"

Qin Jian glanced at him, "Pei Qi, don't fall into the well, here I am your commander, if you are placed in the Shanxia Dynasty, you will be punished for the following trespassing." ”

Pei Qi waved his hand, "I don't mean that, I don't mean that!"

Although he said this, his face was full of uncontrollable smiles, and he was typical of uprightness.

Qin Jian straightened his clothes, returned to his usual appearance, and said: "Forget it, I don't have to gag here, I also came here to ask, how are the troublemakers okay recently? ”

Pei Qi nodded, and Qin Jian continued: "By the way, do you know that a new guy under Gao Yan's subordinates, his name is Zhang Yuanyi, you can check for me what kind of details this person is." ”

Although Pei Qi has little understanding of the outside world compared to other tide makers, it is only relative to the rest of the tide makers, and the organization that knows the most secrets in this Chaohu Academy is probably their group.

Zhang Yuanyi, who only has the cultivation of the second heaven, but he crossed the border one after another at the Sword Conference, and even the monks of the Qin state of mind can fight, looking at the other party's cultivation path, sword cultivation, martial arts and qi refiners, all three of them are cultivated, and they have strange natal powers, and on top of the Dan Soul Competition, they show extremely amazing alchemy talent and strong perseverance.

Such a mysterious and powerful newcomer, he Pei Qi is not at all unconcerned, but since he is a student of Mr. Gao Yan, he doesn't want to suspect too much, after all, it is not reasonable to investigate the other party for no reason.

However, now that President Qin Jian has spoken, it is reasonable for him to investigate and investigate casually.

Pei Qi said: "The little guy is indeed mysterious, you give me a little time, and I will give you the news when the time comes." ”

As long as it is a clerical case of Chaohu Academy, as long as it is recorded, there is no reason why he Pei Qi can't get it, which is also the privilege that the mountain chief gave him as a gentleman of Chao'er's scholar.

I still remember that last time there was an old guy who relied on the old and sold the old, and was unwilling to open the secret pavilion of the Tibetan Scripture Pavilion for him to investigate, but he called the mountain chief to personally "talk about his heart".

If an organization specializing in investigating and investigating cases cannot obtain even the most basic information, isn't the existence of the tide just a decoration?

The Yamashita Dynasty has constrained each other, playing official positions and delaying the opportunity, will it continue to Chaohu Academy?

The meaning of the academy is not an alternative court official!

Now that Pei Qi has agreed, Qin Jian will no longer ask too much, Pei Qi's ability to do things is still very assured, it will not make people appear too tough, unreasonable, and will not leave people with a soft persimmon that is easy to pinch and unprincipled.

He is a real person who can handle everything just right, his reputation and work have always won the hearts of the people, and he is also his right-hand man.

In fact, they are not very old, and according to the rules of the academy, they still belong to the category of students, but the power they hold is very great, so big that they are not subordinate to any master and gentleman, even saints and gentlemen cannot dictate to them, and there is only one object of their loyalty, that is, the mountain chief of Chaohu Academy, Zhou Rushan.

The tide is not very old, but all of them have unique skills, some of them are outstanding because of their own cultivation, such as Xun Shu, who was amazing in the Dan Soul Competition, and some of them rely on their intelligence beyond ordinary people, such as Pei Qi in front of Qin Jian.

As for the president of the tide, he is not only to overwhelm everyone in terms of force, but also to be the top in wisdom and strategy, and to test a person's courage in management.

Therefore, some people say that if the tide is cut out of Chaohu Academy and put into the rivers and lakes.

That Chaohu Academy is like losing an arm, and there will be an extra behemoth organization on the rivers and lakes out of thin air.

Pei Qi suddenly remembered something and asked, "The mountain chief said to give us a few places to compete, who did you give it to?"

Since Qin Jian was in front of him, he didn't bother to check anything more, anyway, sooner or later he would know.

Qin Jian replied: "Give me three places, I will give Xun Shu, Shen Qiaolu and Wei Guoyuan." ”

Pei Qi nodded, it's decent, although the number of places is a little less than others, but if you really want to let the tide go to the competition, then this competition is not interesting.

It may be that the top three are all trendy, and when the time comes, they will be fighting in their own nests.

Pei Qi suddenly remembered an interesting person, and said, "Do you still remember the guy under Mr. Gao Yan who entered the academy first? It seems to be called Wang Teng, what do you think?"

Qin Jian raised his eyebrows, how could he not know him, I remember that the last time the other party in the martial arts test won the first place in the martial arts test, he was very young and vigorous!

Of course, Pei Qi didn't want to ask Wang Teng if he could also win the top spot this year, what he really wanted to convey was how about letting this guy join the trendsetter.

After all, taking Wang Teng's strength as an example, it is good to be in the tide.

Of course, Qin Jian understood what was in the other party's words, shook his head and said: "No, this guy has a very high spirit, he belongs to the kind of existence that does not obey discipline, and if he enters us, it will only cause a lot of entanglements." ”

There is a kind of person called a fellow practitioner, who does not know each other, but can know each other's thoughts just by looking at them.

If it is a mutual agreement, it is a mutual confidant and gets along in harmony, but if there is a conflict, it is incompatible, and the so-called one mountain cannot tolerate two tigers, which is the truth.

Wang Teng's plans are very big, and his heart is extremely strong, what can enter his eyes is not what is a member of the tide, but the chair of the president who sits under his Qin Jian's buttocks.

If the other party's ability exceeds his own, he will choose to abdicate, but unfortunately Qin Jian is not so proud of himself.

After all, this guy still doesn't have a good brain!

If you want to say that your brain is good at this, except for the Pei Qi in front of you, it's a pity that the other party has no interest in the position of president and is willing to work hard under him, and there is another one who is the mysterious kid.

Being able to use the cultivation of the double heavens, relying on his own mind to mediate between many big people, although he also paid some price, he was still able to come out alive and make great contributions to the academy.

Qin Jian's eyes were deep and gloomy, staring at the empty void in front of him, "I heard that you are also going to participate in the competition, but it's quite exciting!"

————

Compared with Gao Yan's shame about being assigned to a bare hill, Little Monkey and the others didn't think it was a big deal, after all, if you want to say that you have thick skin, maybe there are really few who can compare to this group of boys.

Compared to going to Phi Yuefeng to peek at the female disciple taking a bath, he was caught red-handed and made public, what is this?

Especially the little monkey, when he saw this small hill, his eyes suddenly lit up, like a monkey returning to the mountain, he was happier and more excited than anyone else!

This didn't just arrive at the place, taking advantage of the high level to go to the above theory, the person was not here, but he took out a big shovel from the ring ruler, and began to dig a hole in the soil, and the dust was flying all over the sky, and people who didn't know thought that he was going to build a family on the hill.

Of course not, the little monkey just dug countless holes in the hills, and then caught a bunch of fat rats out of nowhere, stuffed them into the holes, and poured water into them.

Each of the pits is connected to each other, and the rats are flooded and flee in all directions, going in and out of the holes, and the little monkey's task is to take a hammer, and as soon as a mouse comes out, he will hammer it down, and he is very happy.

As a result, Gao Yan rushed back, and saw that the originally bare hills had been dug out of countless big pits, rats were running around, and water was constantly seeping and leaking.

He was furious, and then the little monkey was cleaned up by a meal of soles, and it was miserable.

In the very center of the square, a figure slowly descended from the sky, fluttering in clothes and high spirits.

It is the Great Elder of the Law Enforcement Hall, Qiao Jun, who is also the main person in charge and judge of this conference.

His appearance means that the tournament is about to begin.

Wang Teng looked a little anxious, the most important competition in Chaohu Academy has always been not open to the public, once the competition starts, someone will start the big array in the hall, close the entire Jinzhong Mountain, if there are still people who are not present, they can only be isolated and disqualified.

Han Mu stepped forward and asked worriedly, "Brother Wang......"

Wang Teng raised his hand to signal, "Wait a minute, the little monkey has already sent a message to Yuanyi, I believe that Yuanyi has his own measure." ”

On a cherry blossom hanging island in the distance, a black dress sits under the cherry blossom tree, looking into the distance.

She glanced around to no avail, her pretty eyebrows furrowed slightly, looking a little disappointed, or unhappy, and finally slowly closed her eyes and closed her eyes to breathe.

In the distance, a moonlight ripple hangs in the sky, looking like a mirror from a distance, illusory but real, on which a delicate and pure little girl stands on the moonlight ripples, a pair of delicate and small hands, covered with a pair of snow-white gloves like ice.

She bit her lip lightly at this moment, her eyes were worried, and she stared at the gate of Jinzhong Mountain in the distance.

Qiao Jun, who was hovering above the void, raised his eyes to look directly at the sun above the sky, secretly calculated the time in his heart, and said after a long time: "The hour has come, open the mountain protection array!"

After that, a loud rumbling sound sounded around Jin Zhongshan, and a magnificent light shield centered on Qiao Jun expanded and spread around, and the dust was flying for a while, and the speed was so fast that it was about to completely envelop everyone here in an instant, and the treasure cover on the mountainside became one!

"Vermilion Bird!" Just as the great array was about to end, an imposing sword light collided, and a sword split through the large array, splitting out a crack!

A tall and sturdy man in a green shirt, unkempt at the moment, but his eyes were resolute, and he came with a sword, and landed on the square in one step!

Wang Teng and the others took a long breath, and finally came.

The woman in the black dress suddenly opened her eyes, and there was no sneer on the corner of her mouth.

The little girl like ice and snow jumped a little step excitedly, and the moonlight rippled and stirred.

The person who came was Zhang Yuanyi.
