Chapter 68: The Sect Master of the Yin-Yang Family
In the country of Yun, in the Jixia Academy.
The young man from an aristocratic family, who was tall and straight, dressed noble and honorable, slowly walked into the academy surrounded by several guards.
Although Jixia Academy was founded only a few months ago, with the support of the current Emperor Dayun, almost all the famous schools in the world have settled in it, making it the highest academic institution in the Yun Kingdom, attracting countless
Students come.
It is not uncommon in Jixia Academy for a handsome and noble young man from an aristocratic family to come to study like this.
This young man with a majestic and noble temperament wandered around the academy for a while, looked at the boy beside him with some surprise, and said:
"Where are the people? I've been wandering around for a long time, why haven't I seen anyone?"
Although Jixia Academy was founded just a few months ago, among the hundreds of schools that have officially settled in the academy, there are nine schools including Confucianism, Taoism, Dharma, Yin and Yang, Nong, Miscellaneous, Ming, and Fang Ji.
Many scholars from the Yun Kingdom got the news early, waited here, and went to the Academy to attend classes early. Therefore, there are hundreds or even thousands of people in the Academy now.
But just now, the group of people walked around for a long time, but they didn't meet anyone, which was really strange.
Next to the young man, the soft-tempered young man suddenly became speechless when he heard this. He quickly apologized and then urged the guards behind him to inquire.
Everyone waited for a moment, and the guard hurriedly ran over and said respectfully:
"Your Majesty, there is a grand gathering in the city during the Lantern Festival today. The students have all left school early to go to the city to watch the excitement..."
This group of people was surprisingly Xiao Cheng, Feng Bao, and a group of Forbidden Army masters who came out of the palace in civilian clothes.
When Xiao Cheng heard the news, he couldn't help but ask:
"All gone?"
"Yes, it is said that the students left together."
Feng Bao on the side heard this and said with a bitter look on his face:
"Your Majesty, please forgive me for not investigating clearly before leaving..."
Xiao Cheng sighed helplessly and said:
"That's all, the students must have made a last-minute decision."
These academy students are all college students. When the mood strikes, it’s common for them to grab others and join in the fun...
When Feng Bao heard this, he quickly said cautiously:
"Since Your Majesty wants to see the student named Wu Zixu, why don't you just call him?"
Hearing this, Xiao Cheng shook his head slightly and said:
"Of course I didn't come here specifically for Wu Zixu. After reading the report from Dongchang, since the Confucian and French families came to the academy half a month ago, the atmosphere in Jixia Academy has become lively, so I wanted to come and have a look.
.”
Wu Zixu should be the best person Xiao Cheng selected when he came to this world. When he heard that his name appeared on the list of students in the academy, Xiao Cheng was naturally extremely happy.
However, given the status gap between the two, Xiao Cheng would naturally not refuse a lot of state affairs and come to Jixia Academy in person for Wu Zixu.
The main reason why Xiao Cheng came here was because he wanted to take a look at the current Jixia Academy.
Confucianism and Legalism are the two schools with the most acute conflicts among the hundreds of schools in the world today. Above the Xia Kingdom, these two families are the largest and most powerful. While suppressing the disciples of the other hundreds of schools, they are still in conflict with each other.
They can fight fiercely for the right to speak.
The rest of the Baijia still maintained peace among themselves, but even the Zajia, who had old grudges with the Baijia, restrained themselves for various reasons.
Therefore, in the past few months since the establishment of the Academy, the place had been like a backwater without any disturbance. The various schools of thought were doing their own thing and did not interfere with each other.
This false calm was not completely broken until the Confucian and French families came.
Although the two families had only been here for half a month, they often debated and fought with each other in public places, attracting many scholars from the Yun Kingdom who agreed with their ideas to want to join the school.
According to the rules of Jixia Academy, the quality of the students from each school is related to the support of the Yun Kingdom Court in the future. Naturally, the other schools cannot just watch Confucianism and France admit students with good qualifications.
Ah, they all started to take action.
It was only at this time that the Jixia Academy began to feel like hundreds of schools of thought contending. Knowing this, Xiao Cheng naturally wanted to come and take a look.
It's a pity that the timing is not very good!
Xiao Cheng shook his head with some regret, and then said:
"Let's go!"
When Feng Bao heard this, he quickly said:
"Going back to the palace?"
Xiao Cheng pondered for a while and said:
"No, go to Lumen Academy!"
After all, Xiao Cheng also spent money to invest in this academy. He had to go see if Sima Hui and Pang Degong had any tricks for him.
When he heard about Lumen Academy, Feng Bao suddenly showed a trace of hesitation on his face and said hesitantly:
"Your Majesty, if you want to go to Lumen Academy, please call in an expert guard!"
When Xiao Cheng heard this, he frowned slightly and said:
"Why?"
"It has not been verified before, so I did not report it to Your Majesty. On the Dongchang side, we found out that there are several more members of the Yin Yang family in Lumen Academy. Judging from their aura, these people are all seventh and eighth level masters. There are also Yin Yang
My disciple Sang Pan has gone to visit him several times before." Feng Bao said quickly.
Xiao Cheng frowned and said in surprise:
"oh?"
Don't expect that after Sang Pan came to Yun Kingdom, he was exhausted and blind for three days. But as a member of the Yin-Yang family who can represent the Yin-Yang family and travel in the world, his status in the Yin-Yang family is not low.
To be able to pay him a visit, there must be extremely important people in Lumen Academy.
Xiao Cheng heard this and asked:
"What didn't you find at Dongchang?"
"Based on the general information obtained about the person's appearance, age, and martial arts, it is guessed that he is Xu Su, the leader of the Yin Yang family. However, there is no evidence, so His Majesty has not been alarmed." Feng Bao bowed and said.
When Xiao Cheng heard this, his brows couldn't help but move.
Within the Yin and Yang family, there are outer sects and inner sects. The outer sect trains ordinary disciples, and there are assessments every month. If they fail, the disciples will be sent out of the mountain, into the court, or into the world. They are regarded as lay disciples, and at least they cannot understand it.
Acting in the name of the Yin Yang family...
In the Inner Sect, there are elite disciples who study the theories, martial arts, and secret techniques of the Yin-Yang family. They are the foundation of the Yin-Yang family. Once you join the Inner sect, all the treasured secrets in the Yin-Yang family are open to the inner sect disciples, and you can do whatever you want.
Read it, do your research, and you can be supported by the Yin and Yang family throughout your life.
There is no real distinction between the two, it is just similar to the difference between a university and a science and technology institute.
But from the perspective of the Yin Yang family, the inner sect must be more important. And generally speaking, the outer sect leader of the Yin Yang family is responsible for the secular world, and the inner sect leader is the real school head, presiding over the affairs of the Yin Yang family.
All kinds of big things.
Nowadays, the Yun Kingdom actually alerted the suspected leader of the Yin Yang family to come. How could Xiao Cheng not be surprised?
He nodded slightly, waved his sleeves, held the Raging Dragon Sword on his waist, and said:
“I want to go take a look over there!”
Feng Bao was stunned and hesitated:
"There are many masters of these Yin Yang family, and the old man who is suspected to be the leader of the inner sect is even more unpredictable. It is better to call in a few more masters of the Forbidden Army, or call General Di Qing and General Nan Jiyun to escort them..."
When Xiao Cheng heard this, he shook his head slightly and said:
"No……"
After hesitating for a while, Xiao Cheng suddenly changed the topic and said:
"Please invite Master Huiqi to come with me!"
"yes!"
Now Xiao Cheng's force value, with the blessing of the Raging Dragon Sword, and the three points that were previously improved due to the Dika skill, the force value has reached 98 points, which is considered the peak of the ninth level, and there are few opponents in the world. This is it.
Xiao Cheng could not defeat the idea of the sect leader of the Yin Yang family, but he was still able to leave calmly.
However, Xiao Cheng was cautious by nature, and the Yin Yang family had many magical and secret techniques. Without making some preparations, he always felt a little uneasy, so he asked Feng Bao to invite monk Hui Qi.
Monk Huiqi, in terms of force value, is the real peak of the ninth level. Xiao Cheng even doubts that as long as he has the will, he can break into the realm of land gods again. With Monk Huiqi by his side, there is no need to worry about anything else.
---------------
At this time, in Lumen Academy.
Sima Hui paused for a moment, put down the book in his hand, looked at the dozen disciples sitting in the hall, and chuckled:
"Today is the Lantern Festival, so you can go to the city together to relax. Today's class ends here, go on your own!"
When the disciples in the hall heard that their teacher had dismissed classes early and allowed them to go to the city to join in the fun, their first reaction was that they were a little disappointed.
But after all, they are young people. No matter how good they are in studies, they are not as attractive as having fun. All the disciples stood up, saluted Sima Hui in unison, and then dispersed in small groups.
Susu, who had been standing aside and watching, walked in, stroked his beard, and said with a smile:
"Most of these young students have unstable minds and love to have fun. When classes are over, I have rarely seen them look like they are still unfinished!"
When Sima Hui saw Susu walking in, he stood up, bowed slightly, and said with a smile:
"But these are just superficial remarks. They are not misleading, they are just a foundation for young students."
Susu waved his hand, shook his head and said:
"Mr. Sima's words are too modest. He is involved in all schools of Confucian classics, no less than disciples of other schools. His unique skills are based on the Yin Yang School and Taoism, but he combines the two to create a new approach to the art of war.
The understanding of the way is much clearer than that of the lunatics among military strategists today."
He paused and then said:
"The other Mr. Pang is also a man of noble character who is familiar with hundreds of schools of thought. He is also the best at face recognition and can recognize people very accurately. It is an honor for these young disciples to be taught by these two great sages! It's just that
I don’t know which school of thought is capable of cultivating you two great talents!”
Since Suzuku came to Lumen Academy, he has become quite familiar with the talents and learning abilities of the two of them. He also admires the two of them for their quality of teaching and educating people in the deep mountains despite declining the imperial court's favor several times.
Naturally, he became interested in their origins.
Sima Hui and Pang Degong were involved in hundreds of schools of thought.
However, the knowledge of these two people is very different from those of the Za family who are knowledgeable but not sophisticated. Although their use of classics and classics from various schools has not reached the point of creating new theories, they can just twist them with their hands and use them at will.
.
The background of such a character is definitely not simple! This made Susu want to explore.
When Sima Hui heard what Xusu said, he laughed a few times in agreement, but there was no trace of pride on his face. He said calmly and calmly:
"It's an honor for both of us to have you admit it! As for our background, hahaha, how come we, the people in the mountains, have such an origin? We mostly learned a little from one family and a little from that family, and we have become as superficial as we are today.
Cognition…”
Susu didn't quite believe this.
Just looking at such rhetoric, it really seems to be the meaning of the Zajia family. Is it possible that the Zajia family, which has been lingering in the Yun Kingdom for many years, really has two sages who can discover the fatal flaws in the Zajia family's ideas?
Well, the more I think about it, the more likely it is!
Susu pondered for a moment and was about to speak when suddenly, his heart palpitated.
He trembled all over and turned around suddenly.
The next moment, Susu's eyes suddenly became darker and darker. Faintly, there seemed to be stars shining in his eyes.
In his line of sight, the sky was filled with auspicious clouds. The aura of the emperor condensed all kinds of auspicious beasts, looming above the clouds. A purple divine bird, full of honor, circled and danced above the auspicious clouds.
.It emits a crisp cry like gold and jade colliding, which makes people's hearts sway.
Such a vast, mysterious and majestic vision had only been seen by Susu in the Emperor of Daxia before. So naturally there was no need to say more about the person who suddenly came to the academy at this time.
Susu looked quite complicated and said:
"Mr. Sima, if a noble person comes, please invite Mr. Pang to come quickly!"
Hearing this, Sima Hui was slightly startled.
"Noble?"
"Yes, he is a very precious person!"
Sima Hui pondered for a moment, then stood up immediately and ordered the boys on the side to invite Mr. Pang De and prepare tea to prepare to welcome the noble man mentioned by Su Su.
Although Sima Hui didn't quite understand why Susu suddenly said this, he still chose to believe him because of their relationship during this period of time.
On the other side, in front of the mountain gate of Lumen Academy.
Xiao Cheng stood there, looking at the fresh, elegant and beautiful four-character "Lumen Academy" on the mountain gate. He couldn't help but look at Monk Hui Qi beside him and said with a smile:
"Master, what do you think of this word?"
Monk Hui Qi, who was following Xiao Cheng, raised his head and took a few glances, nodded involuntarily, and said:
"The writing is light and agile, and the movement is elegant. It can be called the best in calligraphy!"
Xiao Cheng laughed, pointed at Feng Bao who was following him, and said:
"He wrote it!"
As an educated eunuch, although Feng Bao's calligraphy was not very good, he was obviously capable of it.
Feng Bao looked at his calligraphy hanging on the mountain gate, a hint of joy flashed in his eyes, and then he lowered his head and flattered:
"But the Calligraphy Trail is nothing to boast about! But His Majesty took a drastic step to integrate the entire court organization, which greatly improved the efficiency of the work. In a few months, most of the Lumen Academy was built from scratch.
It’s all thanks to His Majesty!”
Xiao Cheng smiled with satisfaction, raised his legs and led a group of people towards the academy on the mountain.
As soon as the group arrived in front of the academy gate on the mountain, they suddenly saw Sima Hui, Pang Degong and Xu Su, leading a group of people who had been waiting in front of the academy to greet them.
Seeing a group of people coming, Sima Hui raised his head and looked at the leader, Xiao Cheng. Seeing his noble aura, he suddenly felt that his background was not simple.
Pang Degong on the side also raised his eyes and looked at Xiao Cheng's face, suddenly took a breath of cold air and whispered:
"Indescribably precious, it is the image of the Emperor!"
In one sentence, Xiao Cheng's identity was revealed.
However, Sima Hui and Pang Degong were people who were indifferent to fame and fortune. They were just surprised in their hearts about Xiao Cheng's identity and then regained their composure.
The three of them stepped forward together, bowed to Xiao Cheng, and said:
"I didn't know that when a noble person comes, he will be greeted from afar!"
Since the current emperor came in casual clothes, he might be playing some tricks like white dragon fish clothes, so the three of them naturally cooperated.
Xiao Cheng was slightly startled when he saw the three people greeting each other early.
Looking at two of them, with the blue letters "Qingfeng Passing Lumen" flashing above their heads, they knew that the last person should be the suspected Yin Yang family leader Xu Yu.
Thinking that the Yin Yang family had the art of observing qi, Xiao Cheng finally understood that the three people in front of him knew who he was about to come because of this old man.
Xiao Cheng thought for a while, and no longer concealed his identity, he raised his hand to the three of them and said:
"I left the palace in casual clothes today, so I wanted to come and have a look. Now that I'm outside the palace, in order to avoid trouble, you don't have to be polite, just treat me as normal!"
Seeing this, Sima Hui pondered for a moment, then stepped forward and said:
"I wonder why the noble man came here today?"
"First of all, I came here to meet two wise men who refused to be called by the imperial court several times and did not want to be officials." Xiao Cheng said with a smile.
When Sima Hui and Pang Degong heard this, they had no choice but to step forward, bow and salute:
"Your Majesty, please forgive me..."
Xiao Cheng waved his hand, indicating that he didn't care.
He paused, then looked at Susu aside, and said half-jokingly:
"Secondly, I also want to meet the sect master of the Yin Yang family. The sect master is coming to my country of Yun, why don't you go and see me!"
In fact, the disciples of the Yin Yang family, whether it was Sang Pan before or Su Su now, did not hide their identities.
After hearing his identity being revealed, Susu also looked calm, bowed and raised his hands, and said:
"I apologize for my rudeness! I just saw that you don't have any preference for any school of thought, and I was afraid that going to see you would only make you unhappy, so I didn't pay you a visit!"
After all, Suxu is the sect leader of the Onmyo family, and it is clear to see.
The Emperor of Yun State established Jixia Academy, clearly intending to harness the power of hundreds of schools for his own use.
Under such an emperor, the only way to stand out among hundreds of schools is to prove the role of one's own school to the emperor.
Like the Taoists, who stupidly stepped forward to recommend themselves but did not let the emperor see the usefulness of their own school, it was just a useless achievement.
This is the truth, but you still have to say one or two polite words.
Xiao Cheng chuckled lightly and said:
"Sect Master, you are worrying too much. How can I not be happy with a talented person like you?"
Susu just laughed in agreement, obviously knowing that Xiao Cheng was speaking politely.
