The Spirit World

Chapter 383 Bailingshan Classroom
“In this world, there are often times when there aren’t so many whys.

The simplest example is the series of problems caused by human beings as body functions.

A more direct example is hunger. If you are hungry, you are hungry. There is no reason. Because your body tells you that you are hungry, it transmits it to your brain, and then expresses this intention. You may unconsciously touch your stomach because the abnormality there forces you to pay attention. The stimulating information received by the brain is that it needs some food to fill your stomach.

Without these foods, your hunger will make you do inappropriate little movements in the early stages, or even make you more decadent. Not to mention a last burst of energy, even if you don't get food for a long time, you may become paralyzed and unable to do anything.

Then, if there is a piece of food to eat, it is hard not to wolf it down. Of course, if you have never been hungry, you will never know this kind of thing...

When I was young... huh? Why didn't Li Jingyue come? Does anyone know why he didn't come? "

An old hand leaned on a cane and knocked on the ground, making a clicking sound. This was an old man wearing the blue-green robes of a Bailing Mountain mentor. He had a white jade pendant on his waist, which swayed and shone in the sunlight.

"No one knows?"

The old man knocked on the ground again and looked around the platform. "Ran Yi is not here either... Does anyone know where Ran Yi went?"

The audience was the group of students that Bai Lingshan, the instructor, had to face. They didn't sit very close to each other, and were arranged differently, but they were always quiet. They used their spiritual power to lift themselves up, as if they were floating in the air, and memorized the knowledge in class in their own way. Of course, they were also more casual, just like when someone suggested sitting down to rest during a spring outing, and the others sat down casually, without so many strict rules. This was a slightly larger platform with fake mountains and real water, and one could even hear the calls of birds and animals.

"Although the Bai Ling Memorial Ceremony will be held in two days... but, isn't it still two days? You still need to concentrate. I know you are eager to go home, but you still have to listen to this class. Now we are talking about the known attack motives of monsters. Disciples who are far away from home can also use this to defend themselves if they encounter monsters on the road..."

The old man swung his cane and displayed a blue spiritual image of a person wearing only the lower body clothes.

"In a sense, the motives of the monsters' attacks are basically hunger, or because their territory has been invaded. Of course, in many cases, there is no reason. The monsters attack you instinctively, just like a person needs to eat. This can be seen as a body function. If you must explain it, it is that the monsters have infected the monsters. Whether it is a monster from the mutation department or the crystal department, they have been infected with magic energy, causing them to lose their reason and even reject the physical instincts we just talked about. In other words, they attack you at this time, not because they are hungry, nor because you are weak in front of them and can kill you in one shot, but because they are infected with magic energy. There is no reason."

"Teacher... if we analyze the cause and effect, isn't the infection of demonic energy... the reason why the monsters want to attack us? If that's the case, they attacked us because they were hungry, invaded their territory, and were infected by demonic energy. Isn't this... "The female disciple who raised her hand to ask the question looked confused: "a contradiction?"

"Zheng Yipeng... it's good to have questions... but I just said... the monsters infected with magic energy don't need a reason to attack us, there is no so many whys. At this time, as disciples below the gold rank, you should protect yourself first... Don't do anything rash... Don't listen to other instructors and attack head-on, because the magic energy will be infected through wounds. Even if you escape death and save your life, as long as you are scratched by the monster, it is only a matter of time before you become a walking corpse without timely treatment. The best way is to run. Your own life is important. Don't ask such stupid questions next time, and listen to the class carefully. I said... the monster doesn't need a reason to attack you, and there is no why. All you can do is either kill it or run away. Don't care if it is hungry or not, don't care if you have entered its territory, and don't think about whether it has been infected by magic energy. Run, there is no reason, and don't ask why."

The old man materialized that body, forming a life-sized man.

The female disciple named Zheng Yipeng turned around, shrugged to the other female disciple behind her, grinned helplessly, then turned around and looked at the man's body seriously. In fact, this body was more like a genderless body, but it was not a skeleton.

"All our medicines will first pass through our stomachs..." The old man tapped the man's abdomen with his cane, and a very small sound floated out of the spiritual man's abdomen: "It's mainly the stomach. Whether it's a life-saving medicine or a poisonous medicine, it needs to be digested. Don't listen to the weird things those storytellers say, such as that after drinking the heart-breaking medicine, you can say such a long paragraph of love words or even die immediately, and that after taking a mouthful of magic medicine, you will get up and be full of energy. Those are all lies to you children. No matter what kind of medicine it is, it needs to be digested by the intestines, unless you have taken other deadly things. As long as it is taken orally, it is fake that it works immediately in one second. Of course, there may also be some extremely bad and toxic drugs, or venom taken from certain creatures, which only need to enter your throat, and the throat falls down, which is here."

The old man tapped the man's chest with his crutch again, and a small straight tube emerged.

"If it starts to be absorbed here, it will indeed be faster. But you won't die on the spot. It will be more of a painful struggle, and then death from the poison. The whole process is absolutely painful, and there is no medicine that can be painless, because the poisonous medicine itself uses all kinds of strange substances to erode your body from the inside. Cough cough cough..."

The old man coughed, then waved his hand for everyone to take a break. He patted his face, picked up his cup, shook it, frowned, and walked down the platform.

The man's body slowly dissipated, and the blue light stars floated and disappeared.

"Let me tell you... With an excellent student like you here, the old man won't be angry, isn't he saying this..." A hand stretched out from the rockery next to him. Then there was a big head and a pair of cunning eyes.

His voice was low, his eyes fixed on the disciples who were resting around him.

“There is nothing good to see about this young master of Bailing Mountain… If it weren’t for you… I would never go to see it… Really…” Ran Yi’s big eyes slowly rose on the rockery, watching the old man walk away.

"How would I know..." Li Jingyue jumped out of the rockery and landed next to Zheng Yipeng.

Ran Yi soon followed, meditating quickly behind Li Jingyue to make himself float, and then began to tidy up his clothes.

"Xiao Zheng! Xiao Zheng! The old man didn't say anything, right..." Li Jingyue also used his spiritual power to float in the air and sat upright.

"No... But I still mentioned it... For example, I asked you to concentrate..." Zheng Yipeng was not surprised and touched her nose. She had a decent appearance except that her eyes were a little small, so she did not look that beautiful. Instead, she gave people a very strange feeling.

"Oh... the old man is always contradictory... so, to focus... that is, to relax, he asked us to go out more... and we were very obedient, hahahahaha!" Li Jingyue looked at Zheng Yipeng happily and touched her shoulder. Ran Yi also looked at Zheng Yipeng, came to Li Jingyue and said, "Yipeng, what did the old man say?"

“Nothing was said…” Zheng Yipeng shook his head helplessly and said, “It’s useless to listen anyway…Sometimes it makes sense…Sometimes it doesn’t make sense…It’s really full of contradictions…I’m almost dying from listening to it…”

"Look, look..." Li Jingyue looked at Ran Yi with pride: "What did I say... As long as it's Mr. Zhang's class, it's a torture in itself. All kinds of poisonous drugs and magical drugs are put together, and we are required to memorize so many ghost drugs that can kill people... It's simply insane!"

"Hey... you don't understand... We are like in a paradise on earth in Bailing Mountain, no danger can really approach us... But, after all, we need to face the world outside the mountain. Let's not talk about the intrigues between people, just the strange and bizarre infected monsters are extremely difficult to deal with." When Ran Yi spoke, his breathing was very steady, and he spoke word by word.

"Oh, hearing what you said, the common people in the spirit world don't want to live anymore... There are so many terrifying monsters outside... Who can deal with them?... Even if one really has to fight one hundred alone, I think it will be very difficult." Li Jingyue crossed his arms and muttered loudly.

"Oh... why did you guys start quarreling right after you arrived... Li Jingyue... you should give in to Ran Yi... you always bully the good kids!" Zheng Yipeng's voice rose, this kind of thing seemed to happen a lot. Li Jingyue closed his eyes and rested.

Zheng Yipeng hit Li Jingyue's arm, then said to Ran Yi with an "oh", "Ran Yi, will you leave? Bai Ling has been buried... It's time for you to go home... It's been almost a year..."

"I don't want to go back..." Ran Yi didn't expect Zheng Yipeng to ask this, and looked at Li Jingyue hesitantly.

"One year... not going back? Won't your parents be anxious?" Zheng Yipeng was a little confused. "No... I've already told them that I won't go back this year..." Ran Yi shook his head.

"Okay... If that's the case, then I'll go back alone... Do you need me to bring something back?" Zheng Yipeng looked into Ran Yi's big eyes very seriously.

"Let me think..." Ran Yi touched his little chin, then nodded: "Yes... bring a letter..."

"Okay..." Zheng Yipeng sat up straight.

Because she caught a glimpse of the old man walking up to the podium.

The old man put the porcelain bowl and cup on the podium and glanced at the audience below with a serious look.

"Li Jingyue, Ran Yi, did you oversleep? Why did you come so late?" The old man was leaning on a cane and was very aggressive. Just this sentence made beads of sweat appear on Ran Yi's forehead.

"My cup was broken by someone... I was wondering who would be so bored as to use their soul to break my cup. Do you have any idea?"

Li Jingyue and Ran Yi both stood up, and everyone else looked at them. Everyone was floating in the air, supported by the blue spiritual power, and these two people stood up, making them even more conspicuous.

Li Jingyue looked bewildered, even standing there with his arms crossed, looking righteous.

"I, Li, skipped classes, so I didn't do anything wrong. It's definitely not me..." Li Jingyue glanced at Ran Yi. Ran Yi would never do that. He was just afraid of being punished. After all, he was a good student, and he would be afraid for half a day if he was punished.

"Do you know Ran Yi?" The old man seemed to have identified these two people and kept staring at Li Jingyue.

"Ran Yi doesn't know." Ran Yi said his own name, then lowered his head and looked at Mr. Li.

"It doesn't matter if I don't know. You two should copy the 'Wan Yao Bai Jie' for me. Then we'll forget about this matter..." The old man took a sip of tea, which was obviously from a new cup.

"Ah... I've written it anyway... you're going to tear it up anyway... it's better not to write it... you won't keep it as a souvenir..." Li Jingyue was obviously not shocked, because "A Hundred Medicinal Solutions" itself is a very thick book, with all kinds of strange detoxification methods and even folk remedies...

This amount is scary!

It is as horrible as the punishment of falling into hell.

"So, Mr. Li means that I can copy it twice, right? Then just write it twice, I will keep it well..." The old man took another sip of tea and put down the cup.

"Where's Ran Yi? Any opinions?"

"No..." Ran Yi shook his head helplessly.

"Hey! I am responsible for my own actions! If you want to punish me, then punish me... I instigated Ran Yi to escape with me, the worst that can happen is that I copied it three times... Don't punish Ran Yi, don't you say that those who confess will be given leniency... Ran Yi didn't do anything out of line."

Li Jingyue put down his hand and began to worry that Ran Yi would care a lot about this matter.

It was obvious that Ran Yi did care, but it wasn't that obvious, he just kept his head down.

This is what a good boy does when he admits his mistakes...If you ask him to talk, he will definitely be able to speak, but if you ask him why he is like that, he can only show his grievance in front of you.

"Then you copy it three times... Ran Yi will not be punished. Even if you think it's stupid to take my class, don't shut Ran Yi up and go crazy with him. You will be the successor of the Li family in the future. You can ignore everything, but not Ran Yi. Ran..." The old man

"It's fine if I just support Ran Yi! It doesn't matter...my Li family is big and prosperous anyway..." Li Jingyue didn't mean to confront the old man. It seemed like he was just stating a fact. He was calm, serious, and not sarcastic. Instead, he was calm and indifferent.

"Li Jingyue... stop talking..." Ran Yi reminded in a low voice, a little anxious.

"Oh..." Li Jingyue responded softly.

"Li Jingyue... I am old, and I will not argue with you, but you must remember that no matter how arrogant and domineering a disciple of Bailing Mountain is, he must be polite in front of his teacher. You can skip classes, but you cannot quietly destroy the teacher's finances like this. Which of the teachers here has not taught for decades? Small tricks are not presentable, so it is better to use them less. I am not unreasonable, but you are young and energetic, so you still have to suppress it, otherwise it will be difficult for you to succeed. Remember to finish copying, and then this matter will be over."

"it is good……"

This sentence was answered by Ran Yi. After Ran Yi answered, Li Jingyue also said "OK".

Lao Youtiao is Lao Youtiao.

Li Jingyue felt uncomfortable, but didn't say anything else.

Ran Yi looked at him with a helpless smile, not knowing what to say...

Li Jingyue also laughed and scratched his head, feeling embarrassed.
