Chapter 12: to invite
Chapter 12 Invitation
There are seven or eight people around Gong Wanyun, Bai Cangdong actually knows almost all of these people, and almost all of them are the elites of the younger generation of the Gong family, including those who were promoted to scribes on the same day as Bai Cangdong, and obtained the top-grade Qinglian True Life Dao Zhao Mingfeng from India.
"Brother-in-law, did you come to the Secret Law Pavilion to select techniques? I have done finishing work in the Secret Law Pavilion, and I am quite familiar with the secret techniques in it. Brother-in-law, which floor do you want to go to? What kind of technique do you want? Maybe I can help A little favor, let brother-in-law take a few steps less." Gong Wanyun came to Bai Cangdong and said with a smile.
"Oh, thank you Miss Wanyun, but I haven't made up my mind yet, I want to take a look first." Bai Cangdong really didn't decide what technique to choose, and secondly, he didn't like Gong Wanyun, so he didn't want to be with her. What's the matter with her.
Although Gong Wanyun is bright and charming, only Gong Sujun in the entire Gong family can beat her a little bit, but Bai Cangdong knows that this woman is scheming and has no good impression of her.
"Brother-in-law, why are you so alien? I am Sister Sujun's younger sister, and I can also be your younger sister. You can call me Younger Sister or Wanyun." Seeing that Bai Cangdong didn't intend to talk to Gong Wanyun, she asked herself Gu Zi continued: "Brother-in-law, a few of us are going to hunt monsters on the island in the middle of Jingming Lake. Brother-in-law, you can go with us, so that we can take care of each other."
"I have no plans to go out recently." Bai Cangdong refused.
"Ah, brother-in-law, don't you know? There is a rule in our palace family. Within half a month after the children of the palace family are promoted to scribes, they must go out to hunt and kill a monster, and dedicate the sacred object they get to the family. It can be regarded as a ritual of our Gong family." After finishing speaking, Gong Wanyun pointed to Zhao Mingfeng and said, "Mingfeng is also going to hunt monsters to complete this ceremony. Now the closest monster haunt to Qingyun City is only The island in the center of Mingjing Lake, brother-in-law, if you don’t plan to go to Mingjing Lake, it will take at least three or four days’ journey to other places, and it will take a lot of time to come and go.”
"So that's how it is. Well then, going to Mingjing Lake counts as my share, please, please." Only then did Bai Cangdong remember that in Bai Cangdong's previous memories, there seemed to be such a thing. After hesitating for a while, he still agreed to Gong Wanyun's invitation. After all, he was not very familiar with the environment around Qingyun City, so it would be too much trouble to find it by himself.
"We should be the ones who troubled you, brother-in-law. You are a holy scholar, so you should take care of us more when the time comes." Gong Wanyun said with a smile.
Bai Cangdong waved his hand, and went to the second floor on his own, not in the mood to deal with this little fox of the palace family.
"What kind of pretense is it? It's just that he happened to be stunned by a poem by luck. If he had the real ability, he wouldn't have failed to challenge the top-rank True Fate Seal for four consecutive years." Zhao Mingfeng was young and energetic. That day in the Garden of Scholars stole his limelight has been brooding.
"Mingfeng is right. Even if you want to hide your clumsiness, you can just not take part in the test of the Holy Dao Monument. How can you lose four times in a row? I think this last holy product is probably covered up." Gong Yuhai Shaking the paper fan in his hand, he said slowly.
"So what if you get a holy grade? You're just a scribe. You're not good enough. When you become a real person, you're nothing. If you lose luck, you might not even be able to make it to the top grade real person." Li Chunhu also echoed. road.
"If you want to see if he has real ability, then you don't have to wait until he is promoted to Daoist. During this trip to Mingjing Lake, you can try how much he weighs." Gong Yuhai squinted his eyes and said.
"Haha, Brother Yu Hai, you are really bad. He has just been promoted to a scribe, and he hasn't even practiced his skills yet. If you really want him to fight against monsters, he might pee his pants in fright." Ma Chunhu said a few words. When he came out, everyone suddenly laughed.
"Isn't that good? He's also my brother-in-law. If you tease him, I won't be able to explain it to Sister Sujun later." Gong Wanyun frowned slightly.
Unlike Ma Chunhu and others, Gong Wanyun will go to Nanli Academy with Bai Cangdong in the future, and she wants to have a good relationship with Bai Cangdong, a holy scholar. There are also great benefits.
"We are also doing it for his own good, and let him have more opportunities to practice in real combat, so as not to lose the face of our Gong family when he arrives at Nanli Academy. Miss Sujun will not only blame us, but thank us." Ma Chunhu The tone was full of teasing, which made everyone smile knowingly and say yes in unison.
The members of the Gong family used to ridicule Bai Cangdong a lot before, and looked down on him very much in their hearts. Suddenly, Bai Cangdong Xianyu turned around, and superiority felt the challenge, which made it difficult for them to accept psychologically for a while. Dong was beaten back to his original form, and he was still the loser under their feet, not the proud son of heaven aloft.
Bai Cangdong did not stop after going up to the second floor, and went directly to the third floor. When he reached the entrance of the fourth floor, there were already guards guarding him.
Those two guards didn't know Bai Cangdong, and after stopping Bai Cangdong, they were shocked when they saw the order talisman Bai Cangdong took out. Sometimes the order talisman of the nine-story secret law pavilion may not be seen all year round One.
"Who is that young man? He actually holds the order talisman of the nine-story Secret Law Pavilion. Is he the young master of the direct line? Why doesn't he seem to have heard of such a number one person in the Gong family?" After Bai Cang went up to the fourth floor, a guard was suspicious. Said.
"If I'm not mistaken, this person's surname is not Gong, but that young master Bai who has just been promoted to scribe." Another guard pondered.
"Ah, he is that young master Bai who is so shocking?" The previous guards were shocked, and when they looked up the stairs, Bai Cangdong had already walked up to the fourth floor, and he couldn't even see his back. .
Bai Cangdong went up the nine floors all the way, and each floor had to show a token, which caused some small commotions. There is no need to hand in the order talisman now. When he chooses a secret book, he must hand in the order talisman before he can take the secret book away.
In the entire Scholar's Secret Law Pavilion, the lower three floors have the largest collection of books, the middle three floors are gradually decreasing, and the upper three floors are almost useless. There are only a dozen books in total, and each book is It is provided in a special crystal mask, and if you want to take out the secret book, you must have a key to open the sealed crystal mask.
The stone platform under the crystal mask was engraved with a brief introduction of this secret book, but Bai Cangdong didn't see it, so he read the introductions of more than a dozen secret books one by one, and couldn't help feeling a little disappointed in his heart.
These more than a dozen techniques are considered the secrets of the Gong family, and ordinary children of the Gong family may not have the opportunity to learn one or two of them, but these secrets are far from what Bai Cangdong wanted in his heart.
"Even if you can't fly with a sword, at least you should be able to leap tens of feet with lightness. Why are they all about training strength, fists, feet, knives and guns and other stupid kung fu?" Bai Cangdong stopped at a secret book a little depressed Before, there were more than a dozen secret books on the entire ninth floor, and only this one could make him feel a little bit interested.
