The national teacher does not practice

Chapter 352 Returns for a limited time (please subscribe)

In the small courtyard of Yi Jingzhai, a cold wind blew, causing the large bare branches to sway.

When Ji Ping'an saw Xu Xiurong's appearance, his whole face showed a glow of salvation - in the current situation, any statement he made was wrong.

At this time, the arrival of "outsiders" can break the deadlock.

Xu Yuanyun and Xue Ji were also very nervous. Although the two of them were fighting in a showdown with fierce arrogance, they were outstanding figures among their peers in that era.

There is still some basic sense. For example, no matter how much they quarrel, no one wants to expose this matter.

Because this not only involves their respective situations, but also concerns Ji Ping'an's vest issue.

Therefore, when they saw outsiders breaking in, the two women froze in place in a tacit understanding, thinking quickly about how to save the situation.

Xu Xiurong was also confused.

But she is undoubtedly a smart woman, especially since she had speculated about the relationship between Ji Pingan, Xue Ji and Xu Yuanyun earlier.

Now, combined with the results of divination and horoscopes, with a quick glance, one can roughly guess what the national master's crisis refers to.

By this time, Ji Ping'an had already briefly described the situation to her in private through "voice transmission."

Although it is embarrassing, there is no time to take into account the "teacher's dignity" at the moment.

He was eager for Xu Xiurong to help him break the situation.

"That's it..." Xu Xiurong's eyes dimmed for a moment, but he soon took the initiative to smile and broke the deadlock.

I saw her as if there was no one else around, as if she was not surprised by the scene before her, she lowered her head and saluted:
"Replying to Master, this disciple has completed the task you sent. He has taken the liberty to come here to return his orders. This is disrespectful. Please punish me."

This sentence reveals three pieces of information:
First, Xu Xiurong knew the identity of Ji Pingan's "National Preceptor";

Second, the reason for her appearance is explained;

The third is to highlight the identity of the disciple, so as to provide a "legal" identity for oneself to prevent the fight in the future.

Sure enough, after hearing these words, Xu and Xue breathed a sigh of relief at the same time, secretly thinking that it was very dangerous.

It turned out that he was also an "insider". Although it was still embarrassing to have this scene exposed, the danger was at least controllable.

Ji Ping'an took the opportunity to stand up and said with a smile:

"What kind of punishment? Isn't it just seeing someone outside? Are you anxious to find me if something happens?"

As he said that, he turned around and winked, pretending to run away.

However, Xu Yuanyun saw that there was no risk of exposure, and the Master immediately raised his eyebrows, slammed the bowls and chopsticks in his hands onto the table, put his hands on his hips and said:
"The matter is not over yet, where are you going?!"

Xue Ji also had no expression on her face, put down the spoon, and said not to be outdone:

"There really needs to be a result."

Outsiders were in awe of the Great Zhou Imperial Master, but as "insiders" they were obviously not among them.

Ji Ping'an paused, sighed deeply, and closed his eyes.

Seeing that his master was in trouble, Xu Xiurong felt anxious.

At this time, he suddenly glanced at Ji Ping'an, and then deliberately acted surprised on the surface, as if he had never seen the existence of the two women until this moment:
"I haven't received any news about when Master Xu will arrive...but what misunderstanding happened?"

She stepped closer, as if she was thinking about her master, and said distressedly:
"Master has been working hard on the summit and the demon clan these days. He has been working hard and sleeping late at night. It is inevitable that he will not treat guests well. Especially since he left during the last snowstorm and returned to the city a few days ago, he has been busy with prison affairs. He also has to Responding to inquiries from powerful people from all sides...

Even Senior Xue Ji has never had the opportunity to get along with each other. Master Xu and his master have known each other for a long time, and they must be aware of the tense situation at hand. If the master is not well received, the master must be able to understand. "

She did not show off the style of a strong person in the "Observation of the Sky" realm to overwhelm others with her strength.

Instead, he had an attitude of "disciples obey their duties", and these words were also very high-level.

First of all, Xu Xiurong has grasped the "main contradiction" and "secondary contradiction" at hand through Ji Ping'an's private chat description and observation.

That is to say: The most difficult person to deal with in this killing situation is not Xue Ji, but Xu Yuanyun.

On the one hand, Xue Ji, as a witch from a demon sect, is actually not that possessive of the national master in terms of moral concepts and status differences.

This can be seen from the fact that she chose to leave and did not take the initiative to find the national master until her death.

Although she has a venomous tongue, she is used to following the strong, and it will be easier for her to accept the fact that the "Great Zhou Guoshi" has more than one confidante.

In this quarrel, the words seemed fierce, but in fact, they were always on the defensive.

Including blocking Ji Pingan from leaving just now, it was only after Xu Yuanyun spoke that he added not to be outdone.

On the contrary, Xu Yuanyun's origin, status, and personality make her seem weak and not so sharp in appearance, but she is actually arrogant.

It is also the most difficult to do.

Applying the logic of officialdom, Xu Yuanyun is like a princess of the royal family, squeamish and proud at heart.

And for this kind of "princess", the more you suppress her, the more rebellious she becomes.

In short, it belongs to the donkey.

For this kind of "noble girl", one must brush her hair... As a "Great Monk of Guantian", Xu Xiurong should first show a respectful attitude. This is etiquette.

Let's talk about Ji Ping'an's exhaustion and misery during these days to win sympathy.

Then the key is to point out:
"The Imperial Master is too busy and has not spent any time alone with Xue Ji during these days."

Get rid of what Xu Yuanyun cares about most.

Finally, from an outsider's perspective, he admitted that she had met the Imperial Master earlier and complimented her tactfully on her general knowledge. She would definitely understand.

A set of words flows smoothly and smoothly, which is wonderful.

If Huang Chen and others were present, they would definitely be surprised and wonder why Xu Xiurong, who was still a "newbie" in political struggle, improved so rapidly in the art of language when he was in the capital of the gods.

When he heard her speech, the aggressive Xu Yuanyun was startled at first, and then his anger that was visible to the naked eye softened a little.

He looked suspiciously at Ji Pingan, who was standing with his hands behind his hands, eyes closed and looking tired, and asked:

"Have you really not fooled around with this witch these days?"

Xu Xiurong said hurriedly:
"The situation in the city is so dangerous now, and the National Master is incapable of doing anything. The entire academy can prove this."

That's more like it... Xu Yuanyun's anger was mostly gone at once. The reason why she was so angry was actually not anger, but grievance.

Born in this era, she certainly knew that it was normal for a person like the Imperial Master to have some confidantes, and she did meet them very late.

Therefore, what makes her really sad is that Ji Ping'an lied to her last time.

Moreover, I was worried about him all day long in the Beast Control Sect and brought him so many gifts.

But Ji Ping'an was in the city, spending all day with Xue Ji, which gave her a strong feeling of being an "outsider".

This sadness turned into anger, but when I learned that the truth was not what I imagined, I naturally got better.

She wasn't worried about Xu Xiurong lying to her, after all, it was easy to investigate, and logically, it was indeed reasonable.

Thinking about it again, Ji Ping'an had been working hard all day and night, but she was still preventing him from doing business. Xu Xiurong was so anxious that he came to find him in person... Xu Yuanyun suddenly felt guilty.

She is not ignorant.

At this time, seeing Xu Yuanyun silent, Ji Ping'an opened his eyes, tiredness appearing on his face:

"It is true that I did something wrong in this matter. If you want a result... repair your appearance, you should go back first."

Xu Xiurong was in a hurry:
"But Master...just the aftermath of the western horizon..."

"I'll let you go back!" Ji Ping'an said in a deep voice.

Xu Xiurong was extremely anxious, but he could only suppress his words and bowed:
"Yes……"

Seeing this scene, Xu Yuanyun felt even more guilty. She had also seen the vision in the western horizon and knew that it was indeed a big deal.

And he would rather put the business behind him for his own request... She felt moved in her heart, bit her lip, suddenly turned her head, and said coldly:

"No need, this Master still has things to do, so take the first step."

With that said, she stepped out and walked out - the pride in her heart made her so stubborn that she still wanted to pose like this.

As the courtyard door opened, Mu Yaoyao, who was lying on the door panel and listening to the wall, almost fell down when she heard an ouch.

After seeing Xu Xiurong, he became scared and the other disciples of the Beast Control Sect also saluted.

I was surprised that Xu Jianhou and Ji Sichen didn't know when they appeared, but they didn't dare to ask more.

Immediately, under the leadership of Xu Yuanyun, they evacuated like a cloud.

The crisis was over... Ji Pingan breathed a sigh of relief silently, turned to look at Xue Ji, and opened his mouth:

"I..." Xue Ji looked indifferent, picked up the empty chicken soup pot, and walked into the house:

"Go ahead and leave me alone."

Is this angry or not?
Ji Ping'an sighed, knowing that now was not the time to talk, and gave Xu Xiurong a look:
"Go back first."

Xu Xiurong knocked Mu Yaoyao on the head, threw her into the yard, then nodded, disintegrated into starlight, wrapped Ji Ping'an and disappeared.

……

Soon.

The master and apprentice appeared on the banks of the Qinhuai River and walked silently.

Xu Xiurong's eyes were complicated and he said:

"Master, what the disciple just did..."

"Very good," Ji Ping'an nodded. At this time, he regained his composure as a Great Zhou Imperial Master, and he had the pearls of wisdom at his fingertips.

What Xu Xiurong said just now in the courtyard was certainly not something she could have imagined at her level.

It was Ji Ping'an who secretly sent a message and taught her what to say.

The short section at the end of the show, where you refuse and welcome, is also part of the performance.

Ji Ping'an does lack emotional experience, but he does not lack fighting wisdom.

Although I was confused for a moment at first, later, based on my experience in political struggle, I actually thought of some solutions.

But the wonderful thing is that he can't say those words with his own mouth, a suitable person must come forward.

Fortunately, Xu Xiurong arrived in time.

"Maybe Master and Senior Xueji are still angry."

Xu Xiurong sounded worried and asked tentatively: "Do you want to go separate ways to coax me?"

"..." Ji Ping'an shook his head and said helplessly: "Let's let it go first."

Some things need to be given appropriate calm space for everyone before they can be dealt with more easily, but according to his experience, he can only delay them for now.

This is not a problem that can be solved simply.

"Yes." When Xu Xiurong heard this answer, the corners of his mouth curled up slightly.

"How is the situation in the west?" Ji Ping'an changed the subject.

Xu Xiurong immediately described the situation where the Ark fell, and finally said:
"The only living old fox was rescued by people from the Demon Kingdom. Headmaster Xin arrived in time and asked about the incident. He learned that it was the Buddhist interception and killing, but was destroyed by the real person Liyang. At the same time, Mu Jiuyao was also taken away gone."

Speaking of this, Xu Xiurong's face turned solemn:

"Has Master Liyang really returned? Why is he so strong? Can he defeat the leader of Luohan Hall?"

Ji Pingan glanced at her and said:

"How do I know?"

Xu Xiurong blinked and said:
"But you certainly know a lot."

Ji Pingan smiled and said:
"Let's talk about it after we go back and close the door."

Xu Xiurong nodded. Unfortunately, she didn't know that the so-called Li Yang Zhenren was right in front of her.

But how can anyone in the world have the imagination to guess the truth?

While the two were talking, they had already arrived at Yin Yang Academy, but as soon as they reached the door, they were stunned.

Because at the entrance of the academy, a huge Taoist crane suddenly stood, and several Taoist priests were waiting around.

Ji Ping'an felt uneasy for no reason, Xu Xiurong stepped forward and asked:
"Who are you waiting for?"

A Taoist priest cupped his hands and said:

"I have met Xu Jianhou and Ji Sichen. We are the monks of the Taoist God City. We are escorting the founder of my family here. The head of the ancestor wants to see Ji Sichen and asks about the whereabouts of the national master. He ordered me to wait for him. Now wait and go straight to the palace."

Xu Xiurong was stunned:
"Your ancestor...could he be Master Wei? Master Huayang?"

When she was in the divine capital, she found out about Wei Huayang's return.

However, the two parties during the conversation did not notice that the relief on Ji Ping'an's face froze again.

There was a roar in his mind like nine heavenly mysterious thunders.

Wei Huayang...

Huayang... came to see me...?

Ji Ping'an felt his throat was dry. At this moment, Huang He ran out of the academy gate again, and his eyes lit up when he saw him:
"Sir, you are back. Headmaster Huayang is here to find you. You are not here. I was thinking about whether to look for you..."

Ji Ping'an stared at Huang He and felt that the scene in front of him was extremely familiar, as if he had scored twice:

"She...Headmaster Huayang, where is she now?"

Huang He said: "In the courtyard where you practice."

Ji Pingan is expressionless:
"I'm going to meet you, you don't have to follow me."

After saying that, under the blank gazes of Xu Xiurong and others, Ji Ping'an disintegrated into starlight with a "pop" and appeared at the entrance of the courtyard where he lived in the academy.

As soon as he appeared, he saw Yu Baishu, wearing a scholar's robe and a streak of white hair on his forehead, waiting anxiously at the door.

When she saw him, her eyes lit up and she said:

"You are back..."

Ji Ping'an asked in a trembling voice, "How is the situation?"

You Baishu's face was solemn:
"I was waiting here for your female apprentice to come back, but I didn't expect that Wei Huayang came to kill her. Although I am not of the same generation as this woman, I have read the books of later generations and knew that she was your concubine, so I wanted to stop her, but this time The woman was extremely domineering. When she saw me blocking her, she became suspicious and immediately drew her sword to kill me..."

Ji Ping'an urged: "Stop talking nonsense and tell us the results!"

You Baishu said sarcastically:

"In the end, she broke in and is probably talking to Mu Jiuyao right now?"

Ji Ping'an's eyes suddenly darkened. How could this same plot also include a limited-time return?

And as a star officer, he was shamefully without warning... which is normal, as all the people involved were reborn, and it was impossible to deduce it in the first place.

Taking a deep breath, Ji Pingan regained his composure and said in an almost desperate tone:
"You are guarding the door here. This time, no matter who it is, no one is allowed in. If someone wants to break in, you shout. If I send a message to you privately, you do as I arrange."

You Bai wrote with a look of shame, raised his hand to hold Ji Ping'an's shoulder, and said in a deep voice:

"Brother Liyang... take care!"

Ji Pingan ignored him and walked into the yard like a zombie. Then he came to the closed door and took a deep breath.

Adjust your demeanor to normal, show a faint smile, and say silently in your mind:
I am a gentleman.

Then, he raised his hand and pushed open the door.

"Squeak" sounded.

The scenery in the room came into view, as if the scene was reappearing. In the warm house, beside a brown solid wood round table, two figures were sitting, one on the left and one on the right.

One is on the right, wearing a purple dress, with a gentle and elegant appearance, holding a little cyan fox in her arms.

One is on the left, sitting upright. His bright red robe is like a bright color, lighting up the whole winter. His fine hair is hanging down, and three flying swords are suspended behind him.

Wei Huayang was holding a blue and white tea cup and drinking quietly. Hearing the sound of the door opening, he turned his head to reveal a brave and heroic face.

There was extreme danger in his eyes.

Mu Jiuyao and Er Qing also looked over at the same time. One was smiling, the other was about to cry. When they saw Ji Pingan coming in, they spoke excitedly:
"Gu..."

!Mu Jiuyao secretly pinched its buttocks, Erqing's tears rolled down her cheeks, and she hurriedly changed her words:

"Cuckoo..."

Ji Ping'an stepped into the door and closed the door with surprise and surprise on his face:
"When you come to Yuhang, why didn't you tell me earlier so that I could greet you."

Wei Huayang sneered and said quietly:

"Tell me earlier? Can you let this vixen hide early?"

Erqing was very unhappy: He is the vixen, and the lady is the orchid demon!
Ji Ping'an looked serious: No, just listen to my excuses!
