Finally, after discussion among the elders and the heads, the punishments of Lin Jichen and the others were made public.
Lin Jichen, as the mastermind, was dismissed from his position as the elder of the Shanggong Hall, demoted to a deacon, and fined three years' salary. He was also removed from the headquarters and assigned to the Sword Sect branch in Yuening Prefecture.
Chu Tianhan was demoted to the deacon of the Punishment Hall, fined one year's salary, and banned for one year.
In Nangong month, he will be fined for half a year and banned from walking for three months.
The disciples of the Sword Sect were speechless when they saw this punishment.
After all, these three people are the most precious and future hopes of the Sword Sect. They have obviously done good things, but they are still punished.
Lin Jichen was even transferred from the headquarters and dismissed from his position in the Shanggong Hall. This punishment was too harsh.
This is Lin Jichen, the head disciple, receiving star treatment.
But when everyone learned that this punishment was personally issued by the leader, they all shrank their necks silently and did not dare to say a word.
After learning about this punishment, Chen Yuan was happiest.
From the moment Li Mu turned into a fool, to Lin Jichen being transferred from the Sword Sect and dismissed from his post, Chen Yuan was even more excited than he was for his promotion.
This means that the sword cultivators of their Wansi Guild no longer have to wear small shoes, and it also means that without Lin Jichen at the headquarters, he can get closer to Nangong Yue on a first-come, first-served basis!
Although Nangong Yue is married to a woman, Chen Yuan has never given up, especially when he learned that the Bahuang World was about to come to reality, he was determined to win Nangong Yue.
In Chen Yuan's view, although Lin Jichen caught up with Nangong Yue in the game, it may not be the case in reality.
Now that Lin Jichen has been driven away, he can take the opportunity to perform well and win back the goddess' heart one day!
....
Not far away from Jianzong Mountain, fifty miles away, there is a small and cozy village, where many mortals come and go, running around for a living all day long.
But the one who didn't fit in with the busy crowd here was a young man in ragged clothes with a dull expression.
The young man stayed in the field at the entrance of the village, holding a piece of foxtail grass in his mouth, and there was a big yellow dog lying next to him.
A man and a dog just lay motionless in the field, staring at the entrance of a hole.
Until a huge vole came out of the hole to look for food, the young man swooped over and pinned the vole underneath him.
"Hahaha, there is meat to eat! There is meat to eat!"
The young man caught the trophy vole and showed it off with laughter. The big yellow dog was also excited.
The young man hugged the field mouse and ran back to the village with bare feet. When he came to a thatched house, he shouted: "Grandma! Grandma! There is meat to eat!"
In the thatched house, the family sat together and were busy weaving straw sandals to sell in the market.
An old man in his sixties, a middle-aged couple, and a child about ten years old.
When several people saw the young man, they had different expressions. The middle-aged couple looked impatient, while the children looked disgusted.
Only the old man, with a kind face, didn't blame the young man for being dirty. He even said with a smile: "Gorgeous boy, go boil the water in the kitchen. Grandma will make braised field mice for you today."
"Okay! I'll boil the water!" The young man agreed excitedly and ran away.
Instead, the middle-aged couple began to persuade him in a low voice.
"Mom, why do you keep keeping this fool at home? There are so many people with so many mouths to open, and besides, he is so edible, how can we afford to raise him at home?"
"It's okay to do good deeds, but you can't wrong yourself. Mom, we've had enough fun. Let's send him away after dinner." The old man sighed after hearing this and said, "I passed by the market a while ago.
, seeing how crazy and silly he was, being bullied by a bunch of kids, and having neither food nor water, I couldn’t bear to bring him back. This kid is pretty good, but
A little silly, but you are very filial to me and very nice to you, how about we stay?"
"Oh, if mom wants to keep it, then let's keep it. At worst, we can knit a few more pairs of straw sandals tonight." The man finally couldn't bear to refuse his mother and agreed.
The young man rushed back at this time and muttered: "Grandma, the water is boiling!"
The old man laughed and said, "Okay, okay, I'll make braised field mice for you later. You go take a shower and change some clothes first. You can't eat on the table if it's so dirty."
"Oh, I'm going to take a shower! Go right now!"
The young man obeyed the old man's words and ran to the backyard to take a bath.
At noon, after the young man had eaten and drank enough, he took the family's big yellow dog and went hunting again.
With good luck, he caught several voles and a hare in one afternoon.
The young man was extremely satisfied and walked home with the prey in hand.
However, on the way, he encountered some unscrupulous men in the village. They blocked the young man's path and threatened him to hand over his prey.
When the young man refused, several men punched and kicked him.
The young man hugged his prey and squatted on the ground to protect it, no matter how many men hit it, it didn't react.
Finally, after several elders intervened to stop them, the men left angrily.
"Gouzi, are you okay?" Several elders stepped forward and asked in concern.
The young man who was motionless at first stood up in the next second and said with a silly smile: "I'm fine, hehe."
The young man is like an invincible young man, unscathed, picking up his prey and rushing home again.
Today's dinner was particularly sumptuous. The whole family sat together, and the young man ate heartily. From time to time, he also forgot to pick up dishes for his grandma and the middle-aged couple.
The middle-aged couple gradually got used to his presence, laughing and scolding him to eat slowly so as not to choke.
Under the bright lights, the thatched cottage looked particularly cozy.
After the meal, the young man lay down in his room and fell into a deep sleep, as if he had no worries at all and staying in this small home made him extremely satisfied.
Late at night, three figures appeared outside the window of the thatched house. Their eyes were complicated, and they all stared at the young man in the house, silently for a long time.
Until one of the women broke the tranquility.
"Second Senior Brother..."
The woman's eyes were filled with tears and she called out.
The young man heard the noise, opened his eyes and woke up from his sleep. He was not afraid when he saw the figures outside the house. Instead, he asked innocently: "Who are you?"
"Second Senior Brother, do you still remember me? I am Nangong Yue." The woman suppressed her tears and tried to explain.
But the young man had no impression, and said confusedly: "Who is Nangong Yue? I don't know him, and I'm not the second senior brother. My name is Gou Wa, and grandma gave it to me."
The woman finally couldn't help it, turned away, buried her head in the arms of one of the men, and cried.
The other man next to him had an expressionless face. He also introduced himself and said, "Second Junior Brother, do you still remember me?"
The young man shook his head repeatedly and said, "I don't remember, you look very annoying."
The man's face was a little embarrassed, and he had no choice but to look at his companion next to him and signal him to speak up.
The man holding the woman did not introduce himself, but asked softly: "How are you doing here?"
The young man grinned when he heard this and nodded repeatedly: "Very good!"
"That's good, Second Senior Brother, we will all wait for you to come back." The man smiled slightly.
The young man stared at him for a while and couldn't help but said: "You look so familiar."
This sentence made the man lose his defense a little, and his eyes gradually became moist.
