Chapter 12 Selling Books

"We're here now?" Zhou Xiaoxian looked up into the distance with a dusty face, then looked at the sun, "At least two hours ahead of schedule!"

Xia Yi had already seen the outline of the big city in the distance, and sighed after hearing this.

"What a big city."

The city is high and old dreams linger, and the sky is far away and the clouds stop.

The wind and sand flattened the wrinkles on his face, and Xia Yi whispered: "Let's go into the city."

"Yeah." Zhou Xiaoxian responded: "After entering the city, let's find a place to stay first?"

Xia Yi responded and asked casually: "When do you plan to report Zhou Lizhu's matter to the official?"

Zhou Xiaoxian shook his head: "Teacher, I don't plan to report to the official... and of course I don't plan to hide it."

"oh?"

"I have a classmate whose father is the Lord of Wrong-washing, a fifth-star Yuheng expert. I want to inform him about Brother Lizhu's affairs. I think this is better." Zhou Xiaoxian said.

"Waiting the grievances, rinsing the grievances?" Xia Yi repeated, thoughtfully. He read a lot of outrageous records in miscellaneous books last night. For example, more than a hundred years ago, a man named Bao Zheng created his own five-star holy soul dragon head guillotine.

And the five-star holy soul black-faced Qingtian was crowned king.

In the past eight hundred years, the first emperor Xiang Yu, Lu Bu, and Guan Yu suddenly crossed over to Bao Zheng. He would not be surprised if anything happened in this world.

If the grievances are cleared, who could it be?

While talking, the two came to the city gate.

When Zhou Xiaoxian showed a card that looked like a student ID card, the officers and soldiers stationed in Lieyang City stopped checking her package in detail, turned aside respectfully, and put Xia Yi and her in it together.

After walking through the huge arched door several meters long, a wave of sound hit us. The city and the outside seemed to be separated into two worlds by the city wall.

"Tanghuluer!"

"Shaobing! Pancake! Egg pancake~"

“Fresh vegetables~”

The sound of hawking is heard.

Xia Yi stopped and looked far into the distance.

The blazing afternoon sun shines in the distance between the green tiles and red walls, the abrupt cornices, the high-flying store signboards, the sparkling cars and horses, the endless flow of pedestrians, and the calm and comfortable smiling faces.

, a scene of prosperity!

"The demon clan is dead, it's really different." Xia Yi sighed in his heart, turned around and said:

"Let's go to the Marquis Mansion to clean up the grievances."

"Going right now?"

"We're doing this in advance. Please tell me about this opportunity to clear up the grievances." Xia Yi said.

"Oh oh. Lord Xi Yuanhou's surname is Song, and his name is Song Qu. There have been kings among his ancestors. The family has inherited a very powerful five-star holy soul."

"But I don't know much about the names of the five-star holy souls of Lord Xi Yuanhou. After all, some holy souls can learn one or two points of understanding from their names. I only heard about another secret of their family from Song Ziyu.

Pass on the three-star holy soul."

"Song Ziyu, is the son of the vindicated prince who was in the same class with you?" Xia Yixiao asked, "It seems that we have a good relationship. I even told you about this. Hey, couldn't he be the one who wrote the love letter yesterday?"

Zhou Xiaoxian blushed instantly: "Of course not senior brother, teacher, you..."

"Hey, you also have a nickname, Senior Brother?"

"No, teacher, don't do this!"

Zhou Xiaoxian said helplessly: "There are no separate classes for men and women in the Holy Academy. However, in each class, they will compete separately to select senior brother to third senior brother, senior sister to third senior sister, six special positions. If you get the position three times, you can apply for early promotion to the intermediate class.

, or you can be promoted to two-star Tianxuan. Song Ziyu is currently the senior brother of our junior class and has been re-elected three times."

"Oh~ Then are you senior sister?"

"I am the second senior sister." Zhou Xiaoxian was a little shy and raised her head like a child expecting praise from her elders. However, after receiving the words "Girl is awesome" from Xia Yi, she felt a little ashamed and quickly pulled back.

topic.

"My senior brother is a bit arrogant. One time he boasted to a few classmates about his family's secret secret of three-star student-aiding holy souls, which I happened to hear."

"Haha, bragging? Hey, wait, you said...cutting through the wall to steal the light?"

"Yeah." Zhou Xiaoxian nodded slightly and said with a strange expression: "For this reason, there was a classmate in the class who cut open the wall of the next door house and stole everything in order to steal his studies. He was almost arrested by the government. Let's

His parents beat him half to death."

"...Hahaha, that's a good idea."

From the lively market, we walked into a relatively quiet residential area. After passing through the residential area, we came to a bustling neighborhood. On both sides of the street, there were either restaurants or brothels. There were women holding handkerchiefs and waving handkerchiefs. Zhou Xiaoxian lowered his head in front of him with a sullen face.

OK.

Xia Yi looked around with a smile, and occasionally nodded to the pretty ones.

It elicited bursts of cute laughter, accompanied by the old man's names that they thought Xia Yi couldn't hear, even "old poor man" and "old pervert".

The Xiyuanhou Mansion is located in the deepest part of this bustling street. It is a single-family house, covering an area of ​​probably several hectares. Outside the red gate, two huge stone guard statues add a bit of majesty.

The seventh-rank official in front of the prime minister's door and the two-star Tianxuan outside the Marquis's courtyard. The strength of the gatekeepers represents the family's confidence. The one who opened the door for Zhou Xiaoxian was none other than the two-star Tianxuan monk in armor.

"What's the matter?"

"I am Zhou Xiaoxian, coming to see Senior Brother Song Ziyu." Zhou Xiaoxian said politely.

The guard's stern expression softened slightly, and he nodded and said, "Wait a moment." After saying that, he returned to the courtyard and closed the door.

After a short while, the door of the Prince's Mansion was opened heavily from the inside. A seven-foot-tall young man with thick eyebrows leaned out, took a look, and soon opened the door completely with joy, and greeted: "It's really true.

You, Junior Sister Xiaoxian."

"Senior Brother." Zhou Xiaoxian greeted him and said, "Is Mr. Lord Purifier here? I have something I want to report to him."

"It turns out you are looking for my father..." Song Ziyu revealed his disappointment and said, "My father is not here. If you have anything to do, just tell your senior brother directly."

After saying that, he paused, finally looked away from Zhou Xiaoxian, and looked behind Xiaoxian.

There, Xia Yi was standing sideways, with his hands behind his back, his clothes fluttering, and his white hair under the bamboo hat fluttering, as if he was perfectly integrated with the street, the surrounding scenery and the sky!

Song Ziyu had never seen this kind of charm even from his father, and he looked slightly surprised. He quickly asked respectfully, "Junior sister, who is this senior?"

"He is my teacher. He just accepted me as his disciple yesterday." Zhou Xiaoxian replied.

"Teacher?" Song Ziyu was slightly surprised, and quickly congratulated from the bottom of his heart: "Maybe it won't be long before I can't call you junior sister."

Xia Yi turned his head slightly, nodded to him with a standard elder smile.

Song Ziyu quickly bowed and responded.

"Dare you ask me your senior's name?"

"A common man from the countryside, with no name or surname." Xia Yi is a man of great demeanor.

Song Ziyu was stunned and did not dare to ask any more questions. He turned to Zhou Xiaoxian and said, "Junior sister, does what you want to talk to my father have to do with this senior?"

"A little bit. Teacher, Master Xiangyuan is not here, can we come back later?"

"No, it's the same as asking him to explain it."

Zhou Xiaoxian nodded lightly, skipping the visit to the grave, and roughly recounted what happened yesterday.

Song Ziyu was confused when he heard this. Such a thing was too difficult for him to understand when he lived in a demon-free era. If Zhou Xiaoxian hadn't said it, he would have asked the guards to drive them away.

"I will tell my father." Song Ziyu promised first, and then asked with some concern: "Who is Brother Li Zhu in your mouth?"

"His name is Zhou Lizhu. He is an elder brother who grew up with me. He has absolutely nothing to do with the demon clan!" Zhou Xiaoxian emphasized, thinking for a while and then hesitantly added: "Of course, something is very wrong with him now. If, if he really

of……"

"I understand." Song Ziyu felt a little sour in his heart, but still forced out a smile, "Leave it to Senior Brother. Is there anything else, Junior Sister Xiaoxian? I think Senior is new to Lieyang City, why not let me in

The friendship of the landlord..."

"No need, young man, but I have one more thing to tell you." Xia Yi said.

"Oh? Senior, please give me your instructions!"

"Haha, I don't have any instructions. I just see that you are a classmate of Xiaoxian and you are polite to a country guy like me, so I want to form a good relationship with you."

"This book is my hard work in the early years, and it should be of great benefit to your practice. I wanted to give it to you for free, but I don't want to let it be tainted in vain. As long as you give me a symbolic hundred taels, I can give it to you.

Are you willing to sell it to you?"

As he spoke, he took out a book from Zhou Xiaoxian's package and handed it over.

Zhou Xiaoxian's eyes widened in confusion.

Teacher, what are you doing?!

This book belongs to me! I used it to teach Meng Tong! How could you possibly sell it! For one hundred taels! One hundred taels can buy a small bookshop! My senior brother is not stupid!

Song Ziyu's face was full of ecstasy: "Really?"

"..."

This scene is so familiar, just like those uncles and aunts kneeling down to worship Hu Shuo.

Zhou Xiaoxian's little head hurts.
