Coincidentally, when Li Kezhou was looking through the appointees entrusted by "The Dog of Resistance", he suddenly saw two somewhat familiar words.
"Butterfly Phoenix?" Li Kezhou looked surprised.
(This name seems to be the woman Lin Xueluo introduced to me before.)
He pondered for a moment and suddenly thought that Lin Xueluo had indeed mentioned that the woman was currently refining a "Four-pole Sword Diagram" and looking for various treasure materials, and this talisman bone was exactly what was needed to refine the sword diagram.
thing.
Thinking of this, he left Duiyu Pavilion and walked directly in the direction of "Lingxian Courtyard".
…
Lingxian Villa has a very special status in Qishangjian Academy.
He is not among the three houses, but in terms of status, he is still above them.
As for the reason, it is naturally because the people who live here are the rarest and most noble type of people in the world: Yao Ling.
Lingxian North Courtyard is completely different from the other three courts. There are no grand buildings or luxurious decorations here. It is completely located in an elegant purple bamboo forest, and is full of harmony with nature.
Li Kezhou came to the entrance of the bamboo forest and stopped to take a look. Just as he was about to walk in, a man came out with a sword...
The visitor's face showed the arrogance of all the disciples of the Sword Academy. After seeing Li Kezhou, he looked at him unscrupulously and walked towards him.
"The important place of Lingxian Courtyard! Are you here for business?" This man asked arrogantly.
This man was dressed in purple, and judging from his posture, he was obviously playing the role of a gatekeeper.
Even though this person's position may not sound very good, it is one of the most coveted positions in the entire Sword Academy.
First of all, it is naturally the generosity of Lingxian Villa.
All disciples of the Sword Academy who serve in the other academy have no less than thirty kendamas, and those who can serve in the other academy have good connections and backgrounds...
The second reason is naturally due to the status of Lingxian Villa.
Working here is the easiest way to meet the respected Yao Ling. If you are lucky and have some connections, it basically means that you have become successful in the Sword Academy.
The word "Yao Ling" represents not only precious elixirs, but also the legendary sword pictures that sword cultivators dream of.
Hearing this person's question, Li Kezhou nodded slightly: "That's right! I just completed a commission from a medicine spirit, and now I want to find him to deliver it..."
The man's face showed surprise, and he said calmly: "You are lucky enough to receive a commission from Yao Ling. Leave the entrustment to me, and tell me which spiritual master commissioned it. I will do it in a moment.
Help you exchange the kendama..."
Li Kezhou looked at him with a smile, neither agreeing nor objecting.
Naturally, he knew exactly what was going on in this person's mind. Seeing his face, the other party probably guessed that he was a disciple of the Holy Selection, so he wanted to get some benefit from it.
Everyone in the Sword Academy knows that when entrusted by Yao Ling, there is also the term "tip". Generally, when delivering the goods, a reward ranging from three to ten coins will be received. The other party obviously takes a fancy to this part of the benefit.
Seeing his expression, the man immediately knew that he had been seen through, and said without changing his expression: "You can find anyone to ask, Lingxian Villa is not other places in our Sword Academy, and not everyone can enter. If you want to
Once the commission is handed over, it must go through me..."
"To put it straight to the point, I run errands and work hard for you, so I will naturally receive some benefits. According to the rules, it is usually a quarter."
Li Kezhou smiled lightly and said: "According to what you said, I received the commission and there were a total of forty kendama. After passing your hands, I can only get thirty?"
When the man heard forty, his eyes suddenly brightened, and he smiled even more happily.
"That's what it means. This is the historical rule. You have no other choice."
At this moment, this person's heart was already filled with joy.
This time, not only can he deprive the other party of the benefits of ten kendamas, but he will also be able to get another benefit after he delivers it. According to the other party's entrustment, it is worth forty kendamas. According to his experience, he should tip at least five kendamas.
This amount of money earned is not a ruthless one.
Li Kezhou now understands why people are so eager to get jobs in this place. There is so much money in it that they can just earn money by lying down.
He smiled lightly and said, "No other choice?"
Seeing his procrastination and his desire for kendama, the man's face showed impatience.
"That's right! I told you, this is the Lingxian Courtyard. It's not something that cats and dogs can just enter casually. Stop talking nonsense and hand over the entrusted items to me as soon as possible. If you delay any longer, I have the right to take you back.
Ten pieces..."
Li Kezhou said: "With you, I have no other choice, but at least in my opinion, I have another choice."
"What choice?" The man looked confused.
Li Kezhou's eyes flashed with anger: "Of course I'll beat you until you kneel on the ground. Please be respectful and invite me in."
"What! The beast is looking for death..."
The man didn't react for a moment. He was stunned for a moment, and finally became furious.
"Lingxian Villa is not among our three courtyards, and the rules of the Sword Academy naturally do not apply. Although I cannot kill you, I can still teach you how to behave!" Li Kezhou said coldly.
"You crazy guy! I think you are looking for death."
The man's eyes were filled with anger. He held a sword in one hand and wanted to risk his life by drawing the sword.
But the sword was barely halfway out of its sheath when a loud shout suddenly sounded from the opposite side:
"roll!!"
This roar was like thunder in the clear sky. The man on the opposite side was caught off guard. In addition, the two of them were only ten steps apart, so there was no room to dodge. He was immediately hit by the devastating power of the "dragon roar".
Even though he was protected by the sword energy, this man was still like a stone that had been blown away. Blood mist was sprayed from his mouth and he flew backwards ten feet, smashing countless purple bamboos along the way.
The man fell to the ground and rolled out a few meters. His eyes were filled with shock and anger, and another mouthful of blood came out.
"It's murder...someone wants to break into another courtyard..."
This person knew that he was facing a tough fight today and that he was unlikely to be his opponent, so he immediately roared and called for someone to come.
Li Kezhou quietly watched what he was doing and did not take action to stop him.
The man roared for a moment, then an angry figure walked out from the depths of the bamboo forest.
"Who is screaming here?"
The man who was seriously injured and fell to the ground felt as if he had seen his savior when he saw this person appear.
"Healer! It's me, Guo Lei. This person is so audacious that he wants to force his way into other courtyards. I tried my best to stop him, but this person openly acted arrogantly and injured me when I was not prepared. It is a heinous crime..."
The man kept talking, and he imposed various accusations.
Li Kezhou looked at the person without changing his expression. The person who walked out was a young man dressed in green.
This person walked up to the two of them, glanced at the man who was leaning sideways, with his hands on the ground, and his chest stained with blood. He frowned secretly, and then looked at Li Keyzhou who was standing in the distance.
"You are so brave. You just broke into my other courtyard and openly injured the gatekeeper of my other courtyard. Do you think this is your sword courtyard and you can do whatever you want?"
This person is still young and obviously does not know how to distinguish right from wrong, so he easily listens to the slanderous words of the men on the ground.
