Big Moon Ballad

Chapter 205
"What?"

Gui Chen's eyes widened when he heard the words, he thought he would hear a sad story, but he didn't expect Chen Zichu to suddenly come up with a stroke of genius.

So this brother Xu sold himself to the water courtyard because he had no money?Don't want to travel for travel expenses?

Chen Zichu looked into the eyes of the young man beside him, of course he understood what he was thinking, after all, when he knew from Ji Jiashu that there was such a character, he couldn't explain it in words.

"What's the situation?" Different from Gui Chen's surprise, Ying Baoyue just looked at Chen Zichu and said quietly, "So Mr. Xu, was he one of the young people on the side of the road when we came here?"

Talking to this woman is a bit scary, she can understand ten sentences if you say one sentence...

Chen Zichu curled his lips, took a deep breath, and told Xu Yishan's story.

Of course, it was impossible for Xu Yishan to "tell your story". What Chen Zichu knew was what Ji Jiashu learned through various channels back then.

This is a very simple story, and it is also a story of Ying Baoyue's deja vu.

Just like what they saw on the road just now.

Xu Yishan was also one of the teenagers who trudged along the side of the road wrapped in raincloth.

"Xu Yishan's family..." From Chen Zichu's succinct narration, Ying Baoyue finally understood the situation of the big brother of the Water Academy.

Xu Yishan, like Chen Zichu, Ji Jiashu, is a native of Southern Chu. His ancestors also had practitioners, and he can be regarded as a small nobleman. However, since the death of his mother at the age of ten, Xu Yishan's fate has undergone a huge turning point compared with the other two. .

In a sense, Xu Yishan's fate is somewhat similar to Guichen's, but Guichen also has a mother, but Xu Yishan has nothing but a married sister.

And his father reunited less than half a year after his mother passed away, and what happened next was as usual in the world.

With a stepmother, there is a stepfather.

Although Xu Yishan was awakened before the age of eight, his father ignored him because of his mother's serious illness, which delayed the time for enrolling him as a teacher. Naturally, his stepmother would not send him there, but only used him as a labor force. When Xu Yishan was 14 years old, his stepmother became pregnant. Afterwards, the situation got worse.

One night, Xu Yishan secretly overheard his stepmother discussing with his natal family that he would be accused of contradicting his stepmother and nearly causing her to have a miscarriage, and that he should be punished as a slave according to the laws of Southern Chu and then sold as a slave. Then he ran away overnight.

He was holding the ten baht money that had not been handed in for the firewood that day.

"Ten baht?" Gui Chen was stunned, he thought he was already poor enough back then, but he didn't expect that there was someone worse than him.

Xu Yishan's home is hundreds of miles away from Danyang City in Southern Chu. Chen Zichu doesn't know how he got to Danyang with ten baht money. Fortunately, practitioners are relatively skinny.

It is said that when he was escaping, he met a practitioner who was going to Danyang to participate in the elementary ceremony on the road, and he followed him all the way to Danyang.

Then he followed the crowd to Zihua Mountain and entered Jixia Academy.

But what is more tragic is that Xu Yishan didn't pass any of the tests of Fenghuolei's three schools, and was almost beaten to death.

A cultivator who couldn't stand it gave him some money and asked him to come back after going down the mountain to rest, but Xu Yishan just silently pushed away and nodded his thanks, and then walked towards the empty water courtyard under the astonished eyes of other practitioners in front of the stall.

Then, there was Xu Yishan, the big brother of the water academy.

"So Brother Xu finally passed the test of the Water Institute?" Gui Chen, who was attracted by the story, asked.

"Who knows?" Chen Zichu felt that with the condition that the man could barely walk at that time, it remains to be seen what kind of test he can pass, but...

"Shui Yuan is probably now..." Chen Zichu looked at Gui Chen and said, "Anyone who is alive will want it."

Glancing at Ying Baoyue, Chen Zichu hastily added, "A normal man would want it."

So are there still abnormal men?

Ying Baoyue looked at Chen Zichu speechlessly, what was this man worried about...

But no matter what Chen Zichu thought, Ying Baoyue would not think about the water courtyard. Apart from her own troubles, she was worried about her life even if she was not worried about her future.

She hasn't forgotten that she will die if she fails to ascend to the heaven rank.

Ying Baoyue looked at the other three teams, thought for a while, and headed for the longest one.

"Mingyue, do you want to choose the Fire Academy?" Gui Chen asked with a boost of energy.

Ying Baoyue nodded.

Because she lost her memory about practice, she no longer remembered how she chose it in her previous life.

And given that she was at the sixth rank at the beginning of the game, could it be that she has her own attributes?

But in short, through insinuating others, she already knew very well that Shao Si Ming was a fire magician back then.

Since she was a fire mage to the extreme in her previous life, she should have a talent for fire mage. To be on the safe side, it is more appropriate to choose fire mage.

Of course, if a practitioner of the same generation as Shao Siming back then heard this man say that he was only talented in the fire technique, he would probably vomit three liters of blood.After all, is she a bit talented?

"Fire method should be the largest and most powerful among the upper four palaces," Ying Baoyue said, looking at Gui Chen.

In fact, she didn't need to say it, just by looking at the dark crowd, one could tell which academy was the most popular.

At least half of the practitioners who went up the mountain wanted to become disciples of the Fire Academy.After all, Southern Chu is indeed the most prosperous place for fire art, and even practitioners from other places will come here especially.

"So that's how it is," Gui Chen nodded, "Then I'll choose the fire method too."

Ying Baoyue nodded, "Then when it's time for the test, you have to remember what I told you last night."

Gui Chen nodded heavily.

What did you say?What's up?Chen Zichu was at the side keenly noticing what was wrong, but before he could react, the boys and girls beside him had already decisively walked towards the long line to the south.

"Hey! Stop! Ying...the one named Mingyue!" Chen Zichu was a little annoyed, and then realized that he couldn't call Ying Baoyue's name here, so he had to imitate Guichen.

Ying Baoyue turned her head, looked at Chen Zichu and said, "Mr. Chen, you should give up. I won't choose Fengfa like you."

Who is talking about this?Wait, how does she know that I am a Wind Sorcerer?Chen Zichu was taken aback, but immediately realized that this person was changing the subject.

He caught up with Ying Baoyue in two steps in three steps, and turned to look into her eyes, "What are you thinking? Are you going to line up?"

After Chen Zichu finished, he realized that his actions were reckless and just wanted to apologize, but Ying Baoyue was not angry, looked at him and smiled, "Let me try it."

try?Try something like this?
The next moment, a gust of wind suddenly blew through Chen Zichu's fingers, and he instinctively let go of his hand, only to find that the girl had already escaped.

She took out a bamboo hat from nowhere and put it on her head, followed Guichen to the front of the Huoyuan team, when the rain suddenly picked up again, under the blurred rain and mist and other practitioners only looked at the things on the stall Under the circumstances, no one found her for a while.

Chen Zichu took a deep breath, ran a few steps and stood beside the girl and the boy.

At this time, envy and cheers suddenly sounded from the crowd, and a beam of flames actually pierced through the rain curtain and rose from the stone table under the stone tablet in the Fire Academy. The leading middle-aged examiner nodded in satisfaction, looked at a tall young man in front of the table and said, , "You can go to the next level."

The boy left excitedly, leaving only the dark things on the stone table.

"What's that on the table?" Ying Baoyue asked.

Chen Zichu collected himself, took a deep breath and said, "That's a sword fetus, but it's actually a flint."

He looked at Ying Baoyue with a complicated expression, "If you want to enter the Fire Academy, the first and most basic level is..."

The young man opened his mouth word by word.

"Light the flint in the rain."
