Su Anran, Qingyu, and Kongling looked at Tao Ying and shook their heads involuntarily.
Among the three people present, only Qingyu had learned the healing abilities related to alchemy, so when faced with Tao Ying's dislocated and twisted ankle, only Qingyu could treat her. So next, the three of them heard a long
There was a howling sound like a slaughtered pig for several minutes.
It was a real burst of tears.
"What kind of things are Confucian disciples now?" Su Anran murmured, "I cry like this even if I feel a little pain. I think back then, when I was almost killed by two of my senior sisters and my whole body was covered with dense wounds.
, I haven’t even shed a tear.”
Kong Ling nodded deeply.
Because of the Netherworld Ancient Battlefield, she followed Wang Yuanji and others to Nanzhou once, where she also had dealings with Confucian disciples.
So in her impression, Confucian disciples are the type who can die generously, and no pain will make them frown.
But this person in front of me...
"What do you know?"
Although Tao Ying is afraid of pain and has rich emotions, showing everyone that men can be made of water, his strength is indeed a genuine earthly fairyland, and he is still a powerful person with the five elements gathering together to prepare yin and yang, so
He still heard Su Anran's muttering.
"A scar as big as the mouth of a bowl will die. It will be over in the blink of an eye, but the physical pain will be with you for a long time. Can it be the same?"
Su Anran looked at Tao Ying's self-righteous look and was speechless: "With your appearance, if you are caught by the enemies of the sect, I'm afraid you won't need to be tortured, just a beating, and you can do anything."
"That's impossible." Tao Ying shook her head.
Su Anran was a little surprised: "Do you still have the guts?"
"What I mean is that when the enemy catches me, as long as they take out the torture tools, I will attack them immediately without them having to do anything." Tao Ying said, "I have to open my mouth anyway, so there is something wrong with me to let them beat me."
I’ll do it after a while.”
Reasonable and convincing.
But the expressions of Su Anran, Qingyu, and Kongling were really weird.
"How did you cultivate this awe-inspiring righteousness?" Qingyu couldn't hold it back in the end.
"Reading." Tao Ying said matter-of-factly, "Isn't this kind of thing just a matter of brains?"
Qingyu's face turned dark.
She always felt that the scholar in front of her was scolding her for being stupid.
"I think it would be really scary for someone like you to know some of the sect's secrets."
"You're right." Tao Ying nodded with approval, "So I will never inquire about the secrets of the sect, nor will I remember them. I just pretend that I don't know anything and only focus on
Isn’t it a bad scholar who reads books from sages?”
"But what if you accidentally overhear it?"
"That's simple." Tao Ying said casually, "There is an ancient saying: you only read the books of sages and don't listen to what's going on outside the window."
As soon as he spoke casually, a golden light flashed from Tao Ying's body.
"No more?"
The few people waited in silence for a long time, but there was no other reaction. Su Anran couldn't help but ask.
"What's gone?" Tao Ying looked confused.
Qingyu couldn't stand it anymore and said, "Just now we asked you, what would you do if you accidentally overheard the secrets of the sect!"
"That's simple." Tao Ying said casually again, "There is an ancient saying: you only read the books of sages and don't listen to what is happening outside the window."
As soon as he spoke casually, a golden light flashed from Tao Ying's body.
The three of them were silent.
"I think I've seen this plot before."
"Yeah, I've seen it too."
Kong Ling looked at Qingyu and then at Su Anran. She didn't know what to say because her mind hadn't turned around yet.
"Why are you staring at me like this?" Tao Ying looked at Su Anran and others with confusion.
"Oh, we were asking you just now..."
"Don't!" Su Anran said hurriedly after hearing Kong Ling's words.
But obviously, he was too late to stop him, because Kong Ling had already finished the second half of what he said.
"...What should you do if you accidentally overhear the secrets of those sects?"
"That's simple." Tao Ying said casually again, "There is an ancient saying: you only read the books of sages and don't listen to what is happening outside the window."
The golden mountain flashed past for the third time.
"Forget it, this person's brain is different from that of ordinary scholars." Su Anran said with a speechless face.
"Hey, hey, I can't pretend I didn't hear what you said." Tao Ying frowned, "Do you think I can't hear it? You are just scolding me."
Su Anran was too lazy to talk to this young scholar, he was not a normal person.
It was really the first time that he could use the phrase "not hearing anything outside the window, only reading the books of sages" as a memory erasing spell.
What value can a person like this have in him?
However, Su Anran would not tell him that in his situation, if he was really caught by someone from a hostile sect, he would definitely receive a severe beating, because his hostile sect would only think that this
Tao Ying is playing tricks on them.
"By the way, I haven't asked yet, which sect are you from?"
"Eh? Didn't I say that?" Tao Ying was stunned for a moment, and then said, "I am a gentleman from Zhuzi Academy."
Su Anran and Qingyu were both stunned for a moment.
gentlemen.
This word has a certain representative meaning in the Confucian power system. Not everyone can obtain this title - in most cases, Xuanjie is ranked by third-level teachers such as solving puzzles, teaching, and teaching.
Corresponding to the three major realms of the Confucian power system: Ku Hai, Dao Ji, and Earth Immortal. But in fact, this is not entirely the case. Instead, only after making certain achievements in a certain field will you get the corresponding title.
To put it simply, a teacher must be a Confucian master in the Earthly Immortal Realm, but a Confucian disciple in the Earthly Immortal Realm is not necessarily a teacher.
Especially in one of the two holy places of the Confucian lineage, such as Zhuzi Academy, it is really not easy to obtain such a title of "Mr."
"I can't tell." Su Anran sighed.
"I think you are still scolding me." Tao Ying looked suspicious.
Su Anran rolled her eyes, and then said: "Tell me, what's going on with that glutton?... It's impossible for normal people to imagine that kind of thing."
Hearing Su Anran mention this matter, Tao Ying showed an embarrassed look on her face.
After hesitating for a while, he said helplessly: "You also know that since the separation of Zhuzi Academy and Baijiayuan, those who have remained are the Traveling School. And the philosophy of our Traveling School is'
Reading thousands of books is not as good as traveling thousands of miles, so I often travel to increase my knowledge..."
Tao Ying was right about this.
The Youxue School and the Sage School are the only two Confucian schools in Xuanjie today.
Compared to the Sage Sect, where a hundred flowers bloom, a hundred schools of thought contend, and various Confucian techniques can be developed from time to time, the Youxue Sect is really far ahead of the Sage Sect in terms of combat effectiveness.
It was not until the emergence of Sun Qing, the eldest son of the university, that the situation of the Traveling School's crushing of the Sage School was ended - but in essence, Chang Sunqing was actually from the Traveling School, but for the various schools of thought, Changsun Qing's "
The identity of "traitor" is too glaring, so they are unwilling to admit it; and the Sage Sect is of course impossible to rectify the name of the Wuxue Sect for this, so they are naturally happy not to mention Sun Qing's background.
But all in all, the biggest characteristic of the traveling school is traveling.
If there is any sect in the Xuan Realm that has sufficient understanding of the various dangers, secret realms, remnants of the Xuan Realm, and even the small worlds and ancient secrets of the Xuan Realm, then it must be the Zhuzi Academy. Of course.
, in some aspects of more in-depth research, the Zhuzi Academy may not be as good as some sects that have inherited the great unification, but overall, when it comes to the degree of completeness, it really depends on the Zhuzi Academy.
Tao Ying explained her story quite clearly in a few words.
In the Zhuzi Academy, he is a teacher who specializes in the knowledge of monsters, ferocious beasts, auspicious beasts, holy beasts, etc. - in fact, if it were not for his lack of strength, he would now be the teacher who solves doubts.
Because there is almost no one in the entire school of scholars who is more knowledgeable in this field than him, and even some puzzle solvers in this field sometimes have to ask this junior for advice.
It is precisely because of this that Tao Ying is very familiar with the four ancient divine beasts, various auspicious beasts, holy beasts, fairy beasts, spiritual beasts, monster beasts, vicious beasts, etc. And because he knows too much, so
When he had nothing to do, he arranged all these various beasts and made a so-called "encyclopedia". So he discovered that ancient creatures like Taotie are really quite terrifying.
, which left a deep impression on his heart.
In a way, he was not afraid of Taotie, but because Taotie had such a deep impression on him, so as soon as the phantom came to him, he immediately copied Taotie.
By the way, this Taotie was still a figment of his imagination, and it belongs to the category of "admiration" rather than "fear".
After listening to this, the faces of the three people present turned dark instantly.
It is worth mentioning that Tao Ying is also one of the few Confucian disciples who has no ill feelings toward monsters because of his very serious and in-depth research on various beasts. He is not like other Confucian disciples who, for the sake of so-called righteousness, meet monsters.
The tribe will fight and kill.
Therefore, this is also the reason why he can come to the Young Phoenix Banquet to watch the ceremony - this guy came here licking his face and begging Se to let him come. And Se feels that if the Confucian disciples can also come to the secret realm of Tianqiong Wutong, for Tianqiong
The development of Wutong Secret Realm also has certain benefits, so the two parties hit it off immediately, and this crybaby came in.
But at that time, he never thought that he would get into big trouble.
"Oh, it would be great if I could take a closer look at that Taotie."
Listening to Tao Ying's words of tiger and wolf, Su Anran almost blew his dog's head off: "Don't think about it, that thing is your imagination, it is not a real glutton at all!"
"What's wrong with my fantasy? What's wrong!" Tao Ying became anxious on the spot. "Even if I imagined it, it was based on my research, not just my imagination! That Taotie's appearance was based on my excavations."
An ancient stele came out and was completed..."
"So this is why the Taotie looks so colorful?"
Tao Ying was speechless for a moment.
Su Anran couldn't help but said, "Taotie, together with Chaos, Qiongqi, and Taotie, are called one of the four evils. It has a head but no body, and its body is mostly transformed by smoke because it eats too much and is too greedy."
ate, so it ate all its own body. Basically, what is this thing?
They can eat anything, they dare to eat anything, and they will never be full. What they love the most is the human soul... If you meet a real glutton, you will already know him at the first sight.
Even after he died, his soul was sucked away, but he can still hold on until now."
"Impossible!" Tao Ying was unconvinced, "You...how did you know Taotie is like this! You..."
"Heh." Su Anran smiled disdainfully, "As we all know, when it comes to the various knowledge of the First Era, absolutely no one can compare with our Taiyigu. Have you heard of Taotie, Qiongqi and Chaos, which are the same as Taotie?
The other three villains?"
Tao Ying's expression darkened, and then she shook her head.
"So... you know nothing, you are a glutton." Su Anran cursed loudly, "What annoys you the most, you ignorant scholars."
"You...you..." Tao Ying was quite annoyed, but he really couldn't refute.
Because Taiyi Valley is indeed the sect that knows the most about the First Era as far as the Xuan Realm is concerned.
Although other sects in Xuanjie don’t know why, based on many confirmed contents, we can only guess that Valley Master Huang of Taiyi Valley must have dug up a lot of information about the First Era in some cave or secret realm before.
Being able to understand so much about the First Age.
If anyone else dared to challenge Tao Ying's professionalism and authority here, Tao Ying would have started a fight with them.
But Su Anran is a disciple of Taiyi Valley...
Tao Ying could only sigh, looking frustrated.
Su Anran didn't bother to take care of this student's mood. If he wasn't worried that the Taotie would become very scary after killing Tao Ying, he would have thrown this guy into a corner and left him to grow mushrooms.
.
As for the difference between Taotie in the Xuan Realm and Taotie on Earth, how could Su Anran know this?
Anyway, no one in the Xuan Realm has seen Taotie from the First Era. He directly used the records about Taotie on Earth to deceive people, and no one can expose him. Anyway, if there are any problems, just push them all to the First Era. Is it possible?
Could a second person from the First Era still be alive come out and slap him in the face?
Su Anran didn't believe it.
After temporarily getting rid of Taotie, and then resting for a while, after Tao Ying regained his ability to move, the group of people immediately hit the road again.
They did not walk with swords.
Because this secret realm gave Su Anran a very special feeling, he always felt that the sky was not too peaceful.
Saving Tao Ying was a temporary solution without any other options, so after being temporarily out of danger, of course he would not continue to take risks.
After that, as we moved forward, as we officially entered the Tianqiong City area, the surrounding collapsed buildings and various signs of dilapidation became more and more obvious.
However, when Su Anran and others were passing through a street, they encountered a group of slovenly monks unexpectedly.
The two sides looked at each other.
Su Anran felt a little happy when she saw that they were all human beings.
But before he could say hello, the group of people screamed and ran away.
"Run quickly! Demon Su is coming around to the front!"
