The Spirit World

Chapter 384

"You must always remember two things!"

The old man coughed solemnly and tapped the ground with his cane.

"First sentence! If a person is killed, he will die! Don't try to be brave!"

"The second sentence is, the universe is so vast that nothing is impossible. First of all, we must learn to be humble and treat everything with a normal heart. We must not be arrogant or careless. Okay, that's all for today."

Li Jingyue was sitting in the audience, still a little annoyed. After all, copying the whole book three times was not a good thing, but he couldn't say anything and could only bear it.

If we really have to find one thing in common among the mentors at Bailing Mountain, it would be that they are protective of their students. They really are protective of their students and it is not just talk. As long as other sects are slandering them or they need help, the mentors will absolutely be united in facing them and will never be ambiguous. They will first distinguish right from wrong and then decide on the punishment. The maximum extent of protecting their students is to only distinguish right from wrong and not care about the punishment.

Just like this time.

If anyone is to be punished, only Li Jingyue should be punished, not Ran Yi.

Who said Li Jingyue was not the "calf" that the old man wanted to protect? It can be seen that Ran Yi is a very good disciple in the old man's eyes, not a naughty boy like Li Jingyue.

“Tsk… I said it was two sentences… but it turned out to be seventy, eighty, or ninety…” It was normal for Li Jingyue to be sulking, after all, he was the only one who was punished every time.

"Oh...what's the big deal...just listen to what makes sense...why bother about the number of sentences?" Zheng Yipeng laughed and made a look at Ran Yi.

Ran Yi was somewhat helpless, so he could only whisper: "I told you not to go..."

Li Jingyue watched the old man leave. The three of them were still sitting there, or to be more precise, meditating and floating in the air.

"Okay... I didn't see anything... I will still go next time! Even if you don't go, I will go too..." Li Jingyue put down his legs and slowly landed on the ground. The other disciples also fell down one after another. After the mentor left, they went to the platform where the next mentor was giving lectures.

What's more, they give lectures in pavilions and towers, and then drink wine and tea. The landscape of Bailing Mountain was built or even added for the instructors. The instructors of Bailing Mountain are classified into categories. The upper three paths are divided into four investigations of things and three knowledges. Investigation of things is the actual economic application and operation, and knowledge is the theory of the application of spiritual power. The lower three paths are even more divided into five investigations of things and four knowledges. The instructors have enough time to study what they have learned and practice. To a large extent, such lectures are just superficial, because investigation of things is the most important.

Because, as long as you are not a fool, everyone can say it, but doing it is definitely not as easy as it sounds.

Because disciples need to have some knowledge of all six paths, so as to avoid behaviors that would dishonor Bailingshan by not knowing where the danger they are facing comes from, so in the matter of acquiring knowledge, Bailingshan’s mentor has made arrangements from the basic Taoism of Bailingshan to the culture of the market.

No matter which class or level the disciples are assigned to, they all need systematic knowledge-seeking learning, and the study of things is what they should pursue more.

This is different from the mentors' exploration and research of new spiritual power moves or spiritual power principles. The disciples' learning will definitely not be able to keep up with the mentors as fast, because the mentors have enough combat experience or practical operation experience and will definitely not be vague.

Back then, everyone had their own way of dealing with people. Some were very popular among disciples, for example, the beautiful teacher Zhang Fengyang, whom all the male disciples rushed to attend her course [Introduction to the Law of Spiritual Communication]. Although this course was said to be preliminary, it was absolutely terrifyingly profound. In a sense, spiritual communication is inherited, and as long as this is the case, it is difficult to escape the process of "recognizing the master" where the spiritual communication is unwilling to acknowledge the new "host". So teacher Zhang Fengyang guided the disciples to gain experience through spiritual communication, and she intended to make things difficult for the disciples who attended the class, both in terms of character and ability.

She was also a hot-tempered person, often using small words to call her students pigs. The more she called them pigs, the more they liked to listen to her classes. It was so strange. As a result, in addition to Zhang Tiger Mom, Zhang Fengyang's nickname also became known as Pig Mom among her students.

Then there is a strange teacher. He always drinks and enjoys himself. He is free and easy. He soaks in the wine jar all day long. He will be awake for a long time only when he is giving a lecture. Then, he is invisible again. He has only one nickname, Xun Gong. He teaches important knowledge of the immortal way, called [Introduction to the Art of Mastering the Law]. However, when he teaches, he mostly lets the disciples of the immortal way understand how to use spiritual power to transform into ever-changing magic. Or he will quickly demonstrate how to use magic to take objects from a distance and transform objects. His movements and thoughts are so fast that the disciples can't defend themselves in the blink of an eye. Then, he will transform himself without any real teaching from Xun Gong... So, how much do the disciples hate him? They call him Xun Laogui behind his back.

Fortunately, there are other Xianlingdao tutors, and according to Master Xun, he said that other tutors have already taught it, so it would be nonsense to ask him to teach it again. Therefore, he only needs to let the disciples know that there is such a move in the spell, and then let the disciples think of ways to use it by themselves, and maybe they can even create their own moves.

It sounded reasonable, but the disciples hated him so much that they could only call him "Xun Laogui" silently.

Of course, this kind of thing is commonplace for the disciples of Bailing Mountain. Not to mention the rules of Bailing Mountain, the [Ask for Directions and Marriage] Bridge of Bailing Mountain alone is beyond the reach of most people. Those who can enter naturally do not have much bad intentions.

If you want to protect your child, just protect your child.
Li Jingyue patted his legs and straightened the hem of his clothes.

"Let's go, we have to go down the mountain tomorrow! When I finish writing, it will be the day to go back to the mountain. Anyway, there is plenty of time."

"Hey! You're right to think so! It's no use to argue with the old man." Zheng Yipeng jumped down, and her boots made a clattering sound on the ground. The boots she was wearing had iron parts on them, which were specially made to increase the weight on her legs.

"Oh..." Ran Yi also jumped down like a fish, feeling a little unhappy, and no one knew why he was unhappy.

"Hey...Ran Yi...why are you still unhappy..." Zheng Yipeng also patted his legs.

Sitting like this all the time is not actually very relaxing. After all, there are hundreds of disciples in one level, so you definitely can't be too relaxed.

"I think... the old man should punish me... otherwise I will feel bad." Ran Yi shook his head and sighed, saying it with absolute seriousness, but it was really not a joke. After all, this person is called Ran Yi.

"Then... just let the old man punish you! Copying with me, how rare it is!" Li Jingyue put his hand on Ran Yi's shoulder, raised the corner of his mouth, and said jokingly: "How fresh!"

"Hahaha...Ran Yi is like this! Li Jingyue, you should learn from him! If you are half as good as Ran Yi, you would definitely not be disliked by the old man." Zheng Yipeng stretched and grinned at Li Jingyue.

"Hmph, I don't! need! it!" Li Jingyue pushed Ran Yi and asked him to walk, and Zheng Yipeng followed him.

"I'm just respecting the old man's opinion..." Ran Yi smiled helplessly.

"Good boy! You are so bad! This old man still spoils you!" Li Jingyue tickled Ran Yi's waist. Ran Yi laughed out loud and felt extremely itchy, so he dodged quickly.

"Then just tell the old man not to punish you...hahaha..." Ran Yi jumped away and smiled.

He is fairer than a woman, and his smile is like a blooming white flower, as lovely as it can be.

"Look, I'm here to punish you!"

Li Jingyue followed, wanting to "punish" Ran Yi's small waist, but Ran Yi dodged him again.

Zheng Yipeng shook his head and followed.

They were jumping and playing on the downhill stairs leading back to the Golden Steps. Those passing by were all senior brothers and sisters, junior sisters and brothers. They were not so restrained. Instead, there were people laughing and chuckling along the way.

Fang Gang, born to Li Jingyue, is also a handsome young man with long hair on his temples that flutters in the air as if it were long hair.

Ran Yisheng's fragility is like that of a delicate girl, if he were not a man. Every move he makes is full of humility, which makes him even more pitiful.

It is hard for the junior and senior sisters to not feel inferior when seeing the looks of these two people.

"Hey! How about we go down the mountain to eat flower cakes? I haven't eaten them for a long time! I have to go home tomorrow... I'm afraid I won't be able to eat them during Bai Ling's memorial service! Let's go eat them now!" Zheng Yipeng followed and chased after them.

As an old acquaintance of these two funny people, she can see their "beautiful faces" every day, which is not surprising. Many senior sisters and junior sisters rushed to ask Zheng Yipeng to pass on the message to these two funny people, but they were all rejected by the funny people. Although Zheng Yipeng is not beautiful, she is not necessarily ugly. Beautiful women are rare and precious. Zheng Yipeng is not arrogant and has a good reputation among his senior brothers and junior brothers. Of course, those senior brothers and junior brothers... prefer to play with Li Jingyue and Ran Yi.

Therefore, both men and women envy Zheng Yipeng. They don't envy Zheng Yipeng for anything, but just envy that they can "stick" with these two handsome men.

"Xiao Zheng, it's not like you won't come back... What's so delicious about flower cake... I've been eating it since I was a child... and I don't think it tastes good..." Li Jingyue remained unyielding and followed closely.

"Okay... I'm leaving tomorrow too!" After Ran Yi spoke, Zheng Yipeng felt it was a good idea.

"Okay, let's go down the mountain now and come back early in the evening." Zheng Yipeng quickened his pace and walked side by side with them.

"Do you want to drink? Let's drink at the foot of the mountain?" Li Jingyue also stopped what he was doing, jumped onto a tree branch, and then landed gently, walking on the thousand-foot stairs.

Ran Yi also landed gently beside him, and Zheng Yipeng followed with another heavy click.

"Don't drink..." Ran Yi shook his head.

"Yes...why drink..." Zheng Yipeng nodded.

"Drink! Xiao Zheng is leaving tomorrow..." Li Jingyue patted Zheng Yipeng on the back. He was standing between Ran Yi and Ran Yi was walking in the middle. "You can..." Zheng Yipeng hesitated.

"Then let's go drink... and eat the flower cakes too! Eat and drink! How carefree. Right..." Li Jingyue smiled at Ran Yi.

"Don't drink...drinking is boring..." Ran Yi didn't look at Li Jingyue.

They walked together on the steps down the Bailing Mountain. The steps on both sides were easy to walk on. In the cloud and fog barrier of Bailing Mountain, the day and night were rarely so clear. At this time, the sun was just at dusk in the west, but now after walking for so long, the sun had disappeared.

The scenery in the two places was no longer clear. When we got to the actual downhill part, there were fewer people. There were still a few people coming down the mountain, but none of them were as cheerful as them.

There should be no one going up the mountain.

At least, looking at this road, there shouldn't be any. Bailing Mountain has just prepared for the Bailing Memorial Ceremony. It's not certain that anyone will come to the mountain at this time. Bailing Mountain has just lifted the mountain closure...

"It would be meaningless if we don't drink!" Li Jingyue raised his voice, which was a little sharp. He kept staring at the steps going down the mountain. At this time, as they went down the thousand-foot steps, the closer they got to the foot of the mountain, the darker it became.

"Oh...let's drink!" Li Jingyue looked at Ran Yi as if he was acting like a spoiled child.

Ran Yi held his breath, not knowing whether it was good or bad.

"Okay, okay, let's drink..."

Ran Yi's voice began to echo at the foot of the mountain.

It means we are almost at the foot of the mountain.

"Hey...Brother Yufeng...Why is the name of this bridge so strange? Asking for directions and fate...I don't quite understand why it is called this name. Is it a bridge specially designed for people to predict their fate?"

A female voice also echoed in their ears, very soft, and even before they saw the person, it was pleasant and light. That playful energy was reflected in their ears.

Who should I call brother...

Yu Feng...

The three of them looked behind them, and two disciples who had come down the mountain at the same time were also looking at them.

This name...

How should I put it... It's a bit strange. It's not strange that someone would choose such a name, but it's strange that they have the same name and surname. If someone didn't say it, it would be fine. But if someone did, they would ask what the surname was...

The five people looked down the mountain hesitantly.

Although the mountain gate is open, it is still a little strange that they came at this time. If they were family members, it would be magical for the whole family to come and ask about their fate.

"Because the first generation Lord Bai Ling and his wife met on this bridge... It is said... They met in a fight... At that time, Bai Ling Mountain had not yet become Bai Ling Mountain. It was just a barren mountain. Lord Bai Ling came back from treasure hunting and found that his hilltop was occupied by a woman. The woman particularly liked Lord Bai Ling's ambitions... And then... she became Lord Bai Ling's wife..." The other voice explaining was steady, masculine, and much gentler.

"Wow... is this possible?" The woman's voice was full of surprise. Finally, two people slowly walked up the mountain.

It was too dark at the foot of Bailing Mountain. I could only see two people, one in black and one in red, walking up. They must be a man and a woman.

That man seemed to know some old stories about Bailing Mountain. Most of them were strange stories about Bailing Mountain, and the disciples must have heard of them.

Including Li Jingyue and Ran Yi.

Zheng Yipeng looked at Li Jingyue in surprise, and made a face to express her surprise. She didn't know what to say, but she wanted to express her... shock...

"That's probably the case... However, there are many details that can no longer be verified... Madam Bai Ling is more powerful than Lord Bai Ling, and this has almost become a tradition of Bai Ling Mountain..." Li Jingyue thought Zheng Yipeng didn't know this story.

"Oh, I mean... I mean..."

Zheng Yipeng was about to speak.

The two men walked up slowly.

It’s not like Li Jingyue would care about whether it’s embarrassing or not.

"Hmm..." Ran Yi nodded.

Zheng Yipeng didn't know why he nodded. Could it be that... he didn't understand either? Why... would someone go up the mountain at this time...

"This little brother is right." The man standing next to Li Jingyue said with some praise: "Wenlu Yinyuan... is essentially a commemorative name. It is said that without this bridge... the first generation of Madam Bai Ling would have passed away... but this bridge kept her here."

“That’s very romantic…” The woman in red smiled and looked at the three people who stopped here.

Although she didn't know why they stopped and looked at her with confusion.

"Excuse me... who are you..." Ran Yi looked at the tall and thin man respectfully.

"We are here to look for someone. Isn't the mountain gate open today... I came up to look for someone..." The man in black was also very respectful.

"Then I won't bother you anymore..." Li Jingyue tapped Ran Yi's shoulder and then Zheng Yipeng's back.

"Hmm..." The man in black just nodded.

Out of courtesy, I saluted.

"Okay..." Li Jingyue also returned the greeting without asking any more questions.

No matter how strange a person is, if he enters the place where you ask for directions and fate...there is no need to be so vigilant.

"If you really want to count it, the Questioning Road Marriage is a barrier that protects Bailing Mountain together with the barrier of Bailing Mountain itself."

The man in black continued his story.

They walked slowly towards each other.

Li Jingyue and the other two turned around to look at the two people going up the mountain.

Some people were puzzled as to why there were people going up the mountain so early right after the gate was opened. Some were also surprised as to why this man knew Bailing Mountain so well. He must be familiar with more than just directions and marriage.

"Well...how should I put it...I think...as a parent...I wish my parents were this good..."

Zheng Yipeng said somewhat angrily: "Someone came to pick us up as soon as the mountain gate opened..."

"Oh... my dad is here to pick me up... I'm so scared. Let's go! Xiao Zheng!" Li Jingyue took a last look at the two figures who were still talking, frowned, and pushed Ran Yi and Xiao Zheng down the mountain.
