Chapter 91: Intercepting Attack, Clam Shell Water Palace

Under the night, by the cold river.

Teacher Zhu saw that Yu Que looked happy and ignored her for a while, just looking at the river. She was not angry, but just waited with a smile for Yu Que to come back to his senses.

Yu Que was happy for a while, and when he came to his senses, he bowed to Zhu:
"Thank you very much, sir, for your kindness."

Teacher Zhu waved his hand and said, "We are teacher and student, why are you being so polite?"

Yu Que continued to speak:

"Although I don't know where the name Yuque came from, I believe you must have contributed, otherwise the Red Snake Priest would not have spoken like that at the ceremony."

He bowed again and again, trying his best to be polite.

Anyway, bowing and greeting doesn’t cost a penny.

Unexpectedly, upon hearing this, Teacher Zhu suddenly laughed:
"Haha! You hit the nail on the head. The origin of your little River God position just happens to be somewhat related to that red snake."

Zhu Jiaoyu showed a cold expression: "I only realized this later."

Immediately, this person told Yu Que about Red Snake's proposal for the top spot in the ordination academy, and casually mentioned his nomination of Yu Que, and then said:
"If my prediction is correct, that fellow must want to push you off the top of the list. Among the ten students, Xie Qingjie has the position of collecting herbs that the Xie family has prepared for her long ago.

The other students can only get a low-level position at most, but the new student under her called Ji Yiqiu can naturally get your middle-level position."

Teacher Zhu said with a sneer on his face:
"However, as luck would have it, you were the one who blocked her student's path. As the top of the list and a cultivator, you can get a middle-level position. It is only natural that you should get the best position in the county school this year."

After hearing these words, Yu Que felt a mixture of emotions. He was relieved, but also worried about himself.

Fortunately, he had previously apprenticed and studied under Teacher Zhu and had visited him many times.

Otherwise, no one in the county school would speak for him, and he would most likely miss out on this year's top spot and this vacant position.

At the same time, a feeling of anger welled up in his heart: "What a slutty slave, you coveted my magic weapon during the ghost exam, and blocked my way when the results were announced. How hateful!"

But after calming down, Yu Que's face became calm, and he suddenly understood something. He pointed at the river in front of him and asked:

"May I ask, sir, I have obtained a 'Xianhe' position. Are Madam Red Snake and her designated students all practicing the Dragon King's lineage?"

Teacher Zhu laughed loudly and clapped his hands, saying:
"That's right. Your position was given to you by the Ji family through Red Snake, who spent money to force an old immortal to fail the assessment and lose his position, which is how the position became vacant.

So it's not that they almost took advantage of you, but that you took advantage of them."

The other party's words made Yu Que look confused.

As expected, there is nothing new in the country.

His best vacant position was just a carrot pit, the carrot came first, then the pit came. It was just that the other party was inferior in skills, so he, an outsider, took the pit.

After understanding this, Yu Que's mood suddenly improved a lot, and he even felt a little pleased.

He couldn't help but tut-tut and said, "That Red Snake lady and her teacher are both good people."

When Teacher Zhu heard Yu Que's sarcastic words, he suddenly became speechless.

Then, the two of them talked for a few more words.

Teacher Zhu looked at the sky and said:
"I have already informed you of the scope of the river section. As for the other relevant matters, you can find out by communicating with the talisman in your mind. But don't indulge in it for too long. Remember to go to the school for formal classes at midnight three days later.

The first lesson is to open the temple!"

Yu Que's face straightened and he answered in a deep voice:

“Students know!”

Zhu nodded and said, "Although this place is still within the county school, it is not very peaceful. There are many wandering ghosts. You should be careful."

whoosh.

As soon as the other party finished speaking, his burly figure flashed like a bird and disappeared from the riverside and sank into the darkness.

Yu Que kept bowing until the other party left completely, and then he put it down.

When he was left alone, he could not help but pace back and forth along the river bank, with a look of joy and excitement on his face.

Now he is a county student and has achieved his biggest goal in fifteen years. He also unexpectedly obtained a real official position and owns a territory of the official position. It is really cause for celebration!
Yu Que looked at the river surface, which was still sparkling in the night, and felt very excited.

From now on, this thirty-mile river channel will be his treasure land for cultivation. Even official laws may not be effective here. As long as he manages it well, it will surely add fuel to his immortal life!
In addition, the temple will be opened in three days.

"Once the temple is opened, I will be a true immortal!"

Yu Que couldn't help but look forward to it: "I wonder what kind of ancestral temple I will open..."

Suddenly.

Just when he was feeling full of confidence, a gust of cold wind suddenly blew past him.

Yu Que keenly sensed that something was wrong. Gray air immediately surged on his body and his pupils suddenly stood up. Without thinking too much, he fiercely lashed out with a claw in the direction where the cold wind was coming from.

Ahh!

A burst of ghostly crying suddenly rang out.

I saw a pale, wet water ghost. As soon as it emerged from the river, it was torn into two halves by Yu Que's claws. The ghost energy was scattered and it retreated into the river screaming.

Yu Que stared at the water ghost and shouted:
"How dare you! Who dares to attack the immortals of the Guochao family!"

He immediately communicated with the talisman in his mind, stretched out a sword finger, pointed at the river surface and shouted:
"Heavenly Dragnet, Command!"

Whoosh, on the originally cold surface of the river, a trace of accumulated incense aroma suddenly emerged, and formed a net-like structure, with Yuque as the center, and spread out in all directions.

Then a muffled groan sounded in the river in front of Yu Que, and the smell of burning talisman paper was heard.

Before Yu Que could use the incense energy he summoned to lock the other party, the thief in the dark slipped away within thirty steps of the river and disappeared into the night.

Yu Que stared at the direction where the black shadow left. He only took half a step and did not chase after it.

Yu Que lowered his head and frowned as he looked at the half-crippled water ghost that was locked in the river.

He took out the military jar from his sleeve, tapped the jar gently, and put the water ghost into the jar.

"As a thief, you actually dared to escape into the county school... Did you come here specially to give me a water ghost? Hey, it's an old water ghost from the Jiazi year, it's quite a big deal."

He sneered, and in his heart he had already guessed the identity of the person who attacked him secretly, and he understood why Teacher Zhu suddenly said something to alert him before leaving.

After thinking for a while, Yu Que came back to his senses and waved his hand to disperse the incense vapor on the river to avoid further waste. From now on, the incense vapor gathered by the Thirty Li County River will all belong to him, and it cannot be wasted too much. Otherwise, the deficit will be too large, and he will not even be able to pay the incense tax, and he will have to pay money to maintain this place.

Yu Que held the military jar in his hand and released a group of wronged souls to surround him. Then, under the protection of the wronged souls, he walked along the river, measuring step by step as if searching for a dragon's acupoint.

Now that he had obtained the talisman for this section of the river, he naturally had to quickly grasp the geomantic energy of this section of the river and incorporate it into his talisman.

In this way, if anyone dares to attack him within the thirty-mile range of the river in the future, Yu Que will not need to chant any incantations himself, as the incense in the river will automatically protect his body and ensure that he will not be harmed by external evil.

Judging from the rank of his position, he is protected by the incense in the river. No immortals, big or small, in the ninth rank, can get close to him or they will be chased and killed by him.

Only immortals or ghosts of the eighth rank or above could pose a threat to him.

In the dark night, Yu Que walked about ten miles, his eyes suddenly brightened, and he waded into the river immediately.

Because he got this position by surprise, he did not prepare any talismans such as water-repellent talismans and fish gill talismans. He could only hold his nose and walk in the dark in the river.

Fortunately, Yu Que had divine sense, so even though his eyes were dark and he couldn't see the incense, he could still accurately feel his way forward through the signs of incense in the river, and his route would not be affected by the flow of the river.

After a while, he walked to the center of the river, and a huge clam shell appeared in his consciousness.

With a loud splash, Yu Que drilled into the clam shell lightly.

But when he entered the shell, there was no river water in the shell, but a different space.

Yu Que opened his eyes and looked up. The transparent river water and the white moon were reflected in his eyes, but they were all swaying and distorted, which was magnificent.

This place is the water palace where incense gathers in the thirty-mile river. There is a water-isolating formation on the clam shell, which makes it convenient for the master of the water palace to live in it.

Although it was called the Water Palace, Yu Que looked around in the moonlight and found that the place was only about ten feet in size, just like a bedroom.

It is adequate as a quiet room for spiritual practice, but it is not worthy of the word "mansion".

In addition, after Yu Que digested the information recorded in the talisman, he suddenly realized that the clam shell where the water palace was located could be pulled out of the mud at the bottom of the river driven by the scent of incense and float forward with the current.

In this way, Yu Que could place the small water palace closer to the county school, so that he would not have to travel a long way to go to and from school.

Not only that, there is a formation arranged in the shell of the Water Palace clam that is filled with water vapor, which can make the shell full of water vapor and become damp and greasy.

Yu Que took a quick look and sighed:
"Although this place is small, it is truly a good place to cultivate the Dragon King's lineage."

For the immortals of the Dragon King's lineage, this river god's water palace is undoubtedly the best environment for cultivation in the Seventh Block. Even the Jiazi Quiet Room in the county school may not be able to compare with it.

For a moment, an idea popped up in Yu Que's mind, why not just major in the lineage of Lord Dragon? He also understood why "Ji Yi Qiu" had attacked him out of anger tonight.

However, these thoughts only flashed through Yu Que's mind before he suppressed them.

While letting the clam shell drift towards the county school, Yu Que continued to caress this small water palace and began to think about how to arrange it.

While Yu Que was delighted to have obtained the Water Palace, on the other side.

The instructor’s residence in the Seventh County School is in the Red Snake Mansion.

A wet figure walking with his head down appeared in front of the door. After knocking on the door, he quietly walked in.

"Come right in."

When the figure heard the voice, he bowed towards the mansion and continued walking inside. He came to a pepper room. The fragrant aroma filled his mouth and nose, making him feel a little uncomfortable.

There was a bronze pillar in the pepper room, and a figure was circling the pillar. His body seemed to have no bones, and he looked hot and powerful.

Even though the person who came in was not here for the first time, he could not help but feel his blood boiling and mixed thoughts arose in his mind at the first sight.

Madam Red Snake looked at the visitor in surprise and said:

"You came back so quickly... Have you already moved the water palace back?"

Ji Yiqiu's face was gloomy, and he whispered, "To answer your aunt, the thief was too cunning, and he had Zhu Jiaoyu by his side, so Yiqiu was unable to succeed."

Upon hearing this, the red snake frowned slightly, then relaxed and said:

"If there's no chance, forget it. It's just a shabby clam shell house anyway."

She pointed to the next door and said, "Go left after you go out. There is a firewood room. Since you haven't got the water house, you can live with me. You don't have to fight for a place among the dead."

When Ji Yi Qiu heard the words "firewood room", he suddenly felt a little annoyed.

But when he looked up, he saw the cold eyes of Madam Red Snake, and his emotions froze instantly. He lowered his head and responded quickly: "Yes, Yi Qiu thanks Auntie."

"Please step back. I still need to practice my skills." Madam Red Snake said lazily.

After the other person left, she narrowed her eyes again and cursed in a low voice:

"What a waste! He really let that guy take all the advantage."

But when he thought that Yu Que was just a humble man, and there had not been a single spiritual person in his ancestry for eighteen generations.

Mrs. Red Snake put the matter behind her.

She stuck out her forked tongue and coiled her whole body around the copper pillar, breathing in the scent of incense escaping from the pillar and polishing herself.

He is just a top student from a poor family. Once the temple is opened and a thatched temple is opened, he will naturally be lost in the crowd, and in the next quarterly exam, he may not even be in the top 30.

After all, this year, there are as many as thirty students in the county school who have entered the school simply through nepotism.

Madam Red Snake couldn't help but think to herself, "Why do I feel that in recent years, there are more and more talented people appearing in various families and clans... Even the Ji family can produce two talisman students in five years."

She pondered, a sneer in her eyes: "But it's good this way, let's see what excuses you and your disciples have in the future to laugh at my family for being without anyone."

After sneering, she once again focused her attention on the copper pillar in front of her and trained her muscles.

the other side.

After taking over the Bangke Water Palace, Yu Que was indeed immersed in it for a while.

He bought various tools from the market and arranged them in the water palace one by one. He even wanted to ask a formation master to come in and take a look to see if he could improve the formation on the clam shell.

But time passed quickly, and soon it was the third day mentioned by Teacher Zhu.

No matter how big the problem is, Yu Que has to let it go at this time.

Because the first class, the temple is open.
