"Yes, Lao Cao goes crazy as soon as he draws his sword. He won't be able to use this sword. I think you used it very well before, Qiye, so I'll leave it to you!" Baili Pangpang said matter-of-factly.
"But, I don't know how to use a sword either..."
"You don't need it for close combat, just use it as a tool." Baili Pangpang continued.
"All right."
Lin Qiye took the [Qi Yuan], carved a summoning formation on the hilt, and put it aside.
"Tell me, why doesn't that teacher come?"
The few of them chatted for a long time. Cao Yuan looked at the time and couldn't help but ask.
Baili Pangpang pondered for a moment, "Maybe his Liushou van broke down on the road."
"...It's not impossible."
"What level should Commander Ye have to pay a huge price to hire a teacher?" Baili Pangpang began to guess, "Could it be another human ceiling?"
"It should be unlikely." Cao Yuan mused, "The human ceiling does not belong to the Night Watch system. Commander Ye should not be able to invite them. Moreover, we are just an unknown team that has lost the qualification to become a special team. It should not be
It’s worthy of a human ceiling to teach you personally.”
Lin Qiye nodded in agreement.
"It's already past two o'clock in the morning. I guess the teacher won't come tonight. Let's go back and rest." Lin Qiye looked at the time and said to the others.
At this time, the others were also very sleepy. Jialan even dozed off on his shoulder. When they heard that they finally no longer had to wait here, they nodded and got up and returned to their rooms.
The lights were turned off, and the entire warehouse suddenly fell into darkness.
…
Half an hour later.
A figure slowly opened the warehouse door.
Carrying the sword box on his back, he stepped into the warehouse. The moonlight stretched his shadow very long...
"Is this right here..." He looked around and muttered to himself.
Then, as if he noticed something, he squatted down and touched the ground with his fingertips.
A thin layer of ash clung to his fingers.
"The ground is very dirty..."
"Ventilation doesn't work either."
"The rust on the wall needs to be treated."
"The dishes are not very clean either."
"..."
Like a ghost, he walked around the entire warehouse quietly, frowning slightly.
"It seems that I have to work overtime tonight..."
…
the next day.
early morning.
There was a rapid knock on the door.
Lin Qiye opened her eyes, got out of bed and opened the door, only to see Cao Yuan standing outside the door with a strange expression.
"What's wrong?" Lin Qiye asked doubtfully.
"Qiye... this place is haunted." Cao Yuan finally choked out a sentence after holding it in for a long time.
"What?!" Lin Qiye was stunned.
"Come with me and have a look."
Cao Yuan took Lin Qiye and walked directly to the kitchen opposite. As he walked, he said:
"I just got up to do morning work and wanted to prepare breakfast first. As soon as I walked into the kitchen, I saw..."
The two walked into the kitchen, and as soon as they opened the door, Lin Qiye froze on the spot.
Yesterday, because it was too late and the kitchen was temporarily unavailable, Lin Qiye and others did not come to clean it. The place was always dirty...
But now, the entire kitchen has a brand new look, as if it has just been renovated. The floor that was originally full of dust and greasy dirt is now not even a particle of dust, and every tile on the wall is shining brightly!
Lin Qiye walked slowly to the sink and looked at the pile of dishes that were as white as new and as if they had been polished. His whole body fell into a daze.
"How do I remember...these plates were originally carved?" Lin Qiye looked strange, "Where are the carved patterns? Why are they all white?"
"Isn't it weird?" Cao Yuan said sternly, "Qiye, I can be considered a Buddhist in any way. If I really encounter a ghost, I'm not afraid of it... But I have never seen this kind of ghost.
I’ve never even heard of it, to be honest… I’m a little helpless.”
Stab, sting...
Outside the door, a faint sound came.
Lin Qiye and Cao Yuan looked at each other, quickly ran out of the kitchen, and ran straight towards the large open space in the center of the warehouse in the distance.
As soon as they reached the open space in the center of the warehouse, the two people froze on the spot.
This...is the warehouse they came to yesterday?
The spotless ground reflected their figures, and the mottled rust on the surrounding walls disappeared. The originally somewhat turbid air completely dissipated, replaced by the fragrance of detergent, and even the dust on the ceiling was cleaned.
net.
In the empty space, a young man was holding a mop, with his shirt sleeves rolled up, lowering his head and mopping the ground, his eyes full of seriousness.
As if he noticed something, he raised his head and looked at Lin Qiye and the two of them. A pair of dark circles under his eyes were as bright as panda eyes.
He pursed his lips, a look of confusion appeared in his eyes, and after a long time, he slowly spoke:
"Well... hello."
…
five minutes later.
space.
Lin Qiye, Baili Pangpang, Cao Yuan, Jia Lan, and An Qingyu stood in a row, looking at the unattractive young man in front of them with strange expressions.
"Qiye, could he be..." Baili Pangpang bowed his head to Lin Qiye next to him, with doubts in his eyes.
Lin Qiye nodded silently.
"It doesn't even look like it."
Baili Pangpang muttered to himself.
The young man was wearing a black shirt, and the sleeves on his arms were neatly rolled up. There were still a few drops of water on his hands. He lowered his head unconsciously, his eyes were drooped, and there was no trace of temperament on his body.
, he doesn’t look like a night watchman, but like a waiter in a restaurant.
"Um... may I ask who you are..." Lin Qiye said tentatively.
"I was called by Ye Fan, the teacher in charge of your comprehensive education. I should have arrived earlier, but the Liusou van broke down halfway last night."
"My name is Zhou Ping." The young man added, "Ping is just mediocre."
Zhou Ping?
Lin Qiye and others looked at each other and saw the confusion in each other's eyes.
This name...haven't you heard of it?
"Um, hello, Teacher Zhou!" Baili Pangpang was the first to say hello obediently. Just as he was about to continue saying something, Zhou Ping's body suddenly shook.
"Well, don't call me teacher." Zhou Ping seemed a little uncomfortable.
Don't call me teacher?
What should it be called?
"Then...how should we call you?" Lin Qiye asked doubtfully, "Do you have any position in the Night Watch?"
Zhou Ping shook his head, "I'm not a night watchman, and I don't have any duties."
Lin Qiye was stunned and looked at An Qingyu next to him, with a look of shock in his eyes.
The teacher Ye Fan hired at a great price...
Not the night watchman...
Then could he really be...
Zhou Ping thought for a while and said, "If you don't know how to call me, just call me Sword Master like everyone else."
