Volume 1: Reading is not a Confucian sour Chapter 17 Demonic spirit

Last night, Ying Tianchang had a sleepless night. So when there was a knock on the door, Ying Tianchang was able to open the door so quickly.

Before opening the door, Ying Tianchang had roughly guessed who the person who would come, but in fact, it could only be him. So when Ying Tianchang put his hand on the wooden door, there was a trace of hesitation.

It's been a long time since he's seen the old bookworm who taught him to read and tell stories.

Whether it is reasonable or reasonable, I should want to see him very much, but why is it that I dare not open the thin wooden door in front of me at this moment.

In the past, I thought it was something like homesickness, Ying Tianchang had read this kind of word in a book, but now I always feel that it is not like that.

Learning from Chen Lin'an's sigh and then taking a deep breath to his chest, Ying Tianchang opened the wooden door.

What appeared in front of me was indeed an old bookworm.

still only likes to wear a gray robe as he did back then, Ying Tianchang has never thought that the old bookworm looks so good since he was a child.

Moving his gaze up, Ying Tianchang saw the old bookworm's newly grown white hair.

Ying Tianchang originally thought that he would hate the old bookworms, no matter how they saw it, they would give each of them a few punches, no matter how bad they were, they would speak ill of each other, from the eighteenth generation of their ancestors one by one, the young man has not run around in vain in the past few years. But when he really saw it at this moment, Ying Tianchang realized that he couldn't move his hands at all, and he couldn't open his mouth.

There was silence.

"I've grown taller. The old bookworm reached out and rubbed Ying Tianchang's head.

Ying Tianchang didn't like this, Xu Lu's hand couldn't dodge, and when it came to the old bookworm, he didn't want to dodge now.

The old bookworm's hands were not hot, there was a hint of coldness.

However, Ying Tianchang was still not used to it, but before he shook off the old man's hand, the old bookworm took his hand back.

"After five or six years of absence, don't you have anything to say when you see me?" said the old man.

Ying Tianchang didn't know how to answer, and it was more likely that he didn't bother to pay attention to him. The boy vaguely remembered that when the three old men left him, he was only ten years old.

In this regard, Ying Tianchang was a little surprised, he was thinking about the moment when they left him, not the ups and downs of the past five or six years.

The young man's eyes flushed slightly red for a while, but he tried his best to hold back.

"Okay, okay, is this gone? The old man was a little helpless, and more blamed himself. He understood Ying Tianchang's character, and he could guess that he should not be able to sleep at all last night when he came to settle down in the academy. But the old man can't help it, it's already like this, if you go back to the past and do it again, everyone's choice will not change.

That's why the old man blames himself.

Ying Tianchang still didn't want to speak, and retreated to the room, but did not close the door.

The old man hurriedly followed up, and saw Ying Tianchang sitting in front of his desk, and the old man sat on Ying Tianchang's bed.

The old man glanced around at the hut, it was well organized, not bad.

The bun cowered in a corner of the hut, not daring to move.

"Hey. Ying Tianchang said, but he turned his back to the old bookworm.

The old man had some grievances that had been wronged, and explained: "I didn't deliberately scare it, it was afraid of me, what can I do, let me go out?"

Ying Tianchang hoped that this uninvited old man would get out consciously, he glared at the bun shrunk in the corner, so uncompromising? I haven't seen it so timid.

"Ying Four. The old man said, "You didn't know that you had so many senior brothers before, so you didn't call you that, but now you know, don't you mind if I call you that, sir?"

"Fuck your uncle's sir. Ying Tianchang was not polite at all, and he was completely different from Chen Lin'an, Xu Lu, and Li Qinglian in front of them.

The old man laughed slightly and said, "If you continue to scold you, it won't get in the way." ”

Ying Tianchang closed his mouth again, not giving the old man face at all.

"Since you don't scold, then I, the gentleman, continue to say, I will help you arrange the courses you need to take, and when it comes to the teaching time, you can find the master who teaches by yourself, if there is anything you don't understand, ask the master, ask me, or ask your second senior brother. I'll put the books and other miscellaneous items on your desk. In addition to these basic lessons, I will come to you when I teach you. ”

Ying Tianchang really had a large package out of thin air in front of him, he didn't bother to open it, just said, "You are like this, Mr."

At this time, the old man smiled even more happily, and sure enough, it was not a family that did not enter the door.

Ying Tianchang saw the old man's smile, although his face was still expressionless, but his heart was inexplicably much more relaxed, and the boulder that had been suppressing the pulse of his heart was shattered.

Ying Tianchang hesitated for a moment and asked, "You don't have anything to tell me?"

This is consistent with what the old man said before.

This is a question that Ying Tianchang has been wondering about for so many years.

A ray of sunlight shone on Ying Tianchang's face through the window, and Ying Tianchang felt some burning pain on his face, moved his chair, and hid in the shadows.

This ray of sunshine was reflected on the old man, Ying Tianchang looked at the old man who was slowly speaking in the sun, and felt that the old bookworm was the same as before, and he also felt that he was different from before.

Ying Tianchang didn't know if this was an illusion, or if he knew from Chen Lin'an that he was different from the old bookworm he knew.

In the past, the old bookworms could bargain with the vendors for half a day in order to make today's food money and the old drunkard's wine money less than a copper coin, and they could also stand on the street with the scoundrels and shrews in the neighborhood and scold.

At that time, Elder Yingtian, the drunkard, and the old bald head sat on the threshold and watched the excitement.

And the old bookworm in Chen Lin'an's mouth is called Zhang Yuanchun, one of the living saints of Confucianism, and the current owner of Xinzhai in the Central Plains Altar, and he is full of peach and plums.

And the old drunkard is the weirdest and most unprovoked foreign surname Heavenly Master in Longhu Mountain, and the old bald head is the living Buddha of the White Horse Temple.

Ying Tianchang always felt that these words were not the three old men in his memory, and some time ago, he was very afraid of Chen Lin'an, and they actually recognized the wrong person. If it weren't for the fact that the three old bookworms had talked to him once before leaving, Ying Tianchang felt that he should have sneaked away early.

"Do you want to know the truth now?"

The old bookworm asked a little seriously, which caught Ying Tianchang off guard. For some reason, this thing he had thought about a thousand times in countless days and nights now did not want to know.

Ying Tianchang's intuition told him that he still didn't want to know the so-called truth.

Otherwise, you will think wildly, and you will make yourself strange. Ying Tianchang knew that his thoughts were very heavy.

So he shook his head and said, "Just tell me why you three bastards didn't take me with you in the first place." ”

At this moment, Zhang Yuanchun was very satisfied with Ying Tianchang's response, because he bet right. There is a saying that one day is a teacher and a father for life, and knowing the son is Mo Ruo's father, in the final analysis, the idea of the four apprentices The old bookworm is confident that he can probably guess eight or nine without leaving ten.

The old bookworm smiled and said, "This is going to mean that we are going to do it to you." ”

Ying Tianchang looked at the old bookworm.

"I believe that Chen Yi also told you, you were originally a little rich and peaceful, and the war between Qi Qi and the gods in this life has messed up your karma life, in fact, it is not only you, but also Taiping County, which has not been sheltered because of the mistakes of the three of us, that is, your hometown. You should have cut off the number of karma with Taiping County and all the people in Taiping County, and death would have dissipated from heaven and earth, and you would not have entered reincarnation and could not be reborn. But for some reason, the three of us heard your night cry and saved you at the last moment. The old bookworm spoke slowly in the sun.

"If you don't want to mess with your cause and effect, you can find a good family to foster you, and you will still be a little rich and peaceful. However, whether it is the Heavenly Master, the Immortal Bodhisattva, the Buddha, or me, a Confucian sage, the three of us are human beings after all, and we have never been able to let go, so under the leadership of Zhao Laogui, we changed your karma without authorization. It is against the Heavenly Dao to change the cause and effect of human lives without authorization, and the goal of the three of us is too big, so after we take care of you for ten years, we can't hide anymore, in order to prevent you from being exposed to the Heavenly Court, we can only cover you with secret methods, and the three of us will leave separately, otherwise once you are exposed, you will have to go to the Heavenly Cutting Immortal Terrace, and your life, everything we have done, will be in vain. ”

"Heaven is looking for us to ask for guilt, but they can't handle the old ghost Zhao, the monk is a living Buddha of Buddhism, and I hold the Central Plains lineage, so I can only pinch my nose and admit it. The more you leave us and wander alone in the human world, the more you provoke the cause and effect of the human world, the more Heaven will not be able to directly erase you, after all, you have not committed anything. ”

"What the hell have you three old fellows done to me?" asked Ying Tianchang, who heard the old bookworm's last sentence.

The old man just smiled and said, "It's okay, you're still you." ”

Ying Tianchang was confused, he leaned back, leaning his neck on the top of the back of the chair, only feeling a little funny.

But Ying Tianchang couldn't laugh because he knew that this was true, no matter how bizarre it was, it was true.

He remembered the countless dangers he had had in the past five years. There is just one thing, Ying Tianchang said: "I don't believe in fate. ”

The old bookworm didn't take Ying Tianchang's words, but asked, "Are you rusty with what we taught you in those ten years?"

"There are buns, but I haven't been very practical, but I've been practicing. "Ying Tianchang, this is honest. Those magic powers, Ying Tianchang actually wants to actually use them to try, there were buns for a while before, and then there were Chen Lin'an, Li Qinglian, Xu Lu, Ying Tianchang never knew whether he was strong or not, and how much worse he was from Senior Brother Li.

"I just didn't read much. The old bookworm said.

Ying Tianchang took a sip, and he finally felt a little shadow of the past in the old man in front of him with an extremely familiar face.

The old man laughed out loud, he continued to rub Ying Tianchang's head, and said, "Since I am the master of this academy, then this is your home, understand?"

Ying Tianchang looked at the old bookworm, as if he understood or not, he felt that the old bookworm was hinting at something.

But the old bookworm didn't intend to give him an answer, and had already strode away.

Again, you have to figure it out for yourself. Ying Tianchang sighed, turned his head to look at the large package given to him by the old bookworm, opened it and counted them one by one.

In addition to the necessary books, there is a curriculum and a map of the academy, which has clear notes indicating where and what it is used for, and it also marks the residence of the old bookworm and Chen Lin'an, Xu Lu, and Li Qinglian.

Then there is a booklet of the rules of the academy, the previous book Ying Tianchang roughly picked it up and skimmed it slightly, but this booklet should be kept until the end.

Originally, he wanted to read the rules in this booklet carefully, but when the young man picked it up, what was in his mind was Xu Lu's sentence last night, "Do what you want" and the words of the old bookworm.

Ying Tianchang glanced back at the bun that finally ran out of the corner, smiled slightly, and threw the booklet out of the window.

"Right?" said Ying Tianchang, and he didn't know who to say.

The bun squealed twice.

However, Ying Tianchang's brows gradually wrinkled together, Senior Brother Xu had seen it, and the old bookworm who hadn't seen him for a long time had also seen it, but Ying Tianchang always felt that something was wrong with the academy.

This feeling has lasted since he first came last night, and Ying Tianchang was restless before, and his mind was mostly on his relationship with the old bookworm and the academy, and he didn't pay much attention to it. And Ying Tianchang, who had seen the old bookworm and was now in a state of mind that was slowly calming down, was shocked at the moment when he threw the booklet out of the window.

Ying Tianchang looked at the bun again.

Bun nodded.

In addition to Haoran righteousness, this academy is so demonic!
