Volume 1: Life as a Masterpiece Chapter 148: Words of a Sage
When He Yi returned to his residence in the South Pavilion, he made himself tea, and while scattering the alcohol in his body, he thought about what had happened before.
"It's outrageous that the spiritual property will be stolen......" He Yi was a little puzzled.
This kind of indiscriminate thing could actually happen in the hall of Qi Cultivation Sect?
If it is passed out, I am afraid that it will not laugh off the big teeth of all the immortals and families.
And it is said that it is not the first time that a theft similar to the Gao family has occurred, but the thief has never been really caught.
This is very strange.
After thinking about it, He Yi put out three tea bowls on the table, which represented: thieves in the shadows, cultivators from all walks of life, and Qi Cultivation Sect.
Let's start with this thief:
If their purpose is only for spiritual property, they can do it when they are in Huyang City.
At that time, the people of the family were not as guarded as they are now, and there were many people in Huyang City, and it was easier to fish in troubled waters.
And now the Qi Cultivation Sect has sealed the mountain gate, and they have to show invitations when they go up and down the mountain, even if they steal it, they can't take it out, and they can't use the stolen spiritual property in the treasure competition, otherwise once they are recognized by all kinds of families, they will inevitably attack it in groups, and there will be no place to bury.
In other words, what these thieves are doing is something that only has risks, but no benefits.
And this kind of thing, even a fool, will not do it.
The purpose of these thieves does not seem to be stealing for the sake of stealing, but rather to ......
In order to sow discord between the families, to make them suspicious of each other, to have conflicts, and even to create bloodshed?
He Yi pondered it carefully, thinking of the indifferent relationship between the various cultivators in the Qi Cultivation Sect now, which was full of suspicion and defense, and felt more and more that there was such a possibility.
"It's hard to say...... What good can these thieves gain in the end by stirring up relations between families?"
He Yi shook his head, thought for a moment, and then buckled the tea bowl representing the thief, and turned his gaze to the second tea bowl.
All walks of life are cultivating true families.
Whoever has more spiritual property will be able to compete for more and more needed things.
In the thinking of people from all walks of life, after their own spiritual property is stolen, the first feeling will definitely be that they will think that their competitors, that is, other families who came together, the purpose is to weaken the hole cards in the hands of other families.
And once they get caught up in this thinking, they become more and more suspicious, more and more suspicious of everything around them.
Then, slowly, the relationship between all the Xiuzhen families will also drop to the freezing point.
As it stands, this is indeed the case.
That is, their own reasoning is right!
Someone wants to transfer the relationship between the various Xiuzhen families!
Thinking of this, He Yi set his eyes on the third tea bowl againββββ
Practice Qi Sect!
Is this possible?
He Yi frowned tightly and called in a low voice: "Liangyu." β
"Lord, do you have any orders?"
Li Liangyu poked his head out of He Yi's shadow.
"I write a letter, you secretly sneaked into the temporary residence of the Bohai Gao family, put the letter in a conspicuous position, pay attention to concealment, and never be discovered by outsiders. He Yi admonished.
"Yes, my lord!"
Li Liangyu nodded, and then shrank his head again.
............
Knock knock knock......
At this moment, a gentle knock on the door came, waking He Yi from his contemplation.
He Yi retracted his thoughts, walked over and opened the door, but saw a pretty face, leaning against the door and smiling slightly, looking at him.
The person who came was Zhong Ci.
Compared with the weakness of a few years ago, although her face at this time is still not very good, it is a little more ruddy, which should have been carefully conditioned.
If this continues, the cold poison in her body should not have any more problems.
"Qingnu, how is Senior Zhong?" He Yi asked casually.
"My second uncle doesn't have any major incidents, it's just that his soul power is a little depleted and he needs to recuperate...... Huh, why do you have a smell of alcohol?" Zhong Ci moved his pretty nose, and a pair of eyes swept around He Yi's face, seeing that he did have a drunken flush on his face, but his eyes were glaring, and he said angrily: "Have you drunk?"
"I ...... I met a few new friends, and I fell in love, so I couldn't help but ......."
"You're a fool of you, you fainted once yesterday because you vomited blood, and you started drinking just a little better? That vixen is right, I think you just think you have a long life!" Zhong Ci was suddenly furious.
"No, I ......"
He Yi was about to explain, but before he finished speaking, he felt a gust of wind in front of the door, but it was the eldest lady's fist that hit him hard.
He Yi subconsciously raised his hand to resist, holding Zhong Ci's fist in his hand, only to feel that the palm of his hand was soft and soft, and the smooth and jade-like skin touch unique to a girl made him stunned for a moment.
Zhong Ci was also stunned, and then a touch of pink color quietly climbed up his cheeks, replacing the previous anger.
She lowered her head and withdrew her hand without hesitation, and then there was a long silence.
There was some subtle awkwardness in the atmosphere.
"Ahem, I'll pour you tea. He Yi coughed lightly, looking very uncomfortable.
He just grabbed a woman's hand like that, although it was a subconscious act, but ...... It's a bit of an impropriety.
"Drink so much, your son...... There's nothing wrong, right?" Zhong Qingnu felt a little complicated in her heart, walked over and lay on the table, her fingers couldn't stop fiddling with a curtain of hair on her sideburns, and she didn't dare to look directly into He Yi's eyes.
He Yi knew that she was still a little ashamed of herself, so she shook her head, took the initiative to change the topic, and said with a smile: "By the way, what about your second uncle? Why don't you see anyone? This official also saved his niece, and he didn't come to say thank you in person?"
Zhong Ci gave He Yi a roll of his eyes and said, "Look at you proudly, my second uncle and them, in fact, arrived one night earlier than us, I told the second uncle what happened in the cliff valley, and he felt the need to tell the Qi Sect about it, so he went to find the Hong sect master." β
"This Qi Cultivation Sect Sect Sect Master still doesn't know about this?" He Yi's heart moved, and he said suspiciously.
"I shouldn't know, when my second uncle talked about this, the sect master was very surprised, they thought that Hongling had already died. Zhong Ci shook his head.
"Don't you know...... Is it impossible?" He Yi was silent, holding his head in one hand, and the fingers of the other hand slowly tapping on the table, making a click, click, click.
After a long while, Fang said, "Qingnu, don't you think it's strange?"
Zhong Ci was stunned: "What's so strange about this? That Hongling had already been expelled from the Qi Cultivation Sect three years ago. β
He Yi shook his head and said, "No, it's not just Hongling, but also the Snow Temple." If you think about it, if you want to get out of this position where the Qi Sect is located, there are only two ways. One leads to Pingyuan County, the other leads to Lijia Village, and the road outside Lijia Village is still a relatively easy road to pass. There are many inner disciples of the Qi Cultivation Sect, and there are even more disciples of the outer sect, and they have to pass through there almost every day to do things. How could you not know about the existence of snow ghosts?"
He Yi's words hit the nail on the head.
There is no reason for the Qi Sect not to know about Hongling and the Snow Ghost.
During the period when the Zhao family was destroyed, the Qi Cultivation Sect also sent several groups of inner disciples to Huyang City to investigate the cause, but they were not attacked by snow ghosts like various families.
"What if they didn't know because they took the trail?" Zhong Ci said.
"Are you stupid?" He Yi rolled his eyes and said helplessly: "Let me ask you, if there were two roads in front of you, one easy to pass and the other difficult and steep, which one would you choose?"
"Of course, it's the main road, unless something happens to the main road, or if you have to do it, you will go ...... Wait, I see! What do you mean ......" Zhong Qingnu suddenly stumbled, although she was a little impulsive, but she was also a woman in the outer beauty, after getting He Yi's point, she suddenly understood the key point, and said in a low voice: "You mean, those Qi Cultivation Sect disciples who go up and down the mountain have long known that it will be dangerous to take the big road, so they choose to take the small road?"
"Exactly. He Yi nodded and said.
"But...... If they knew about the existence of the snow ghost, why didn't they tell the families in advance to choose the path to go?"
He Yi pondered for a moment and was puzzled: "I don't understand this either. Maybe it was to get rid of Hongling with the help of the family, or maybe it was for other reasons, in short, they must have deliberately concealed this matter. β
"But if the matter is revealed and angers other families, what good will it do to the Qi Cultivation Sect?" Zhong Qingnu thought about it again, but she couldn't think of a reason, so she shrugged her shoulders and said, "Whatever, it has nothing to do with my Zhong family anyway." You are too, you are obviously an outsider, how can you see everything so clearly? No wonder my second uncle said...... Say that you have great talents, and let me have the opportunity to learn more from you in the future......! Will you teach me now, Mr. Ho?"
She blinked her eyes mischievously, and said this sir, with a bit of anger in her tone, and smiled.
He Yi was caught off guard, the tea in his mouth almost didn't squirt out, he choked and coughed a few times, and said in a loud voice: "The authorities are confused, and the bystanders are clear." Let me teach you...... I really don't have much to teach you. β
"I don't believe it, Mr. Private School can teach me, why can't you teach it? Don't fool this girl!" Zhong Qingnu's face was ruddy, and she glared at He Yi fiercely.
Seeing that her eyes were full of interest, He Yi knew that this matter was perfunctory, and sighed helplessly.
But if you really want to teach her, where do you start?
After thinking about it carefully, He Yi said: "Let me ask you, do you know the phrase 'I am three provinces and I am 'three provinces and me'?"
Zhong Ci nodded, looked at him very strangely, and said, "Of course I know the words of the sage, this girl has been familiar with it when she was three years old. β
"Since you know, then ......" He Yi thought for a while, and then continued to ask: "Then do you know the phrase 'think before you act'?"
Zhong Ci said depressedly: "You know, why do you ask this?"
He Yi spread his hands and said: "Since you all know, then I have nothing to teach you, if you can really abide by these two words of the sages, and be accompanied by them night and night, your future achievements will definitely be extraordinary." β
β......β
Zhong Ci was speechless for a moment, and said, "It's gone?"
"It's really gone. He Yi smiled bitterly.
After hearing this, the eldest lady Zhong was immediately angry, and said indignantly: "Hmph! I just came to tell you, don't go out indiscriminately these days, lest you be secretly poisoned by the thief!"
After that, he took out an object from the sachet and smashed it at He Yi, and then slammed the door and walked away.
He Yi took the object and looked down, but it was a list of treasures, which recorded in detail the treasure competition process of the treasure competition conference the day after tomorrow.
In the middle, there is a place surrounded by red cinnabar, and the words "lightning strike wood" are written in the center.
It should be the treasure that the Zhong family wants to get very much.
