"Is this guy playing tricks on me? Since he got so many things that look like finger bones, he must have been to that dreamland. How come he can't remember anything?"
Li Danqing's heart was filled with anger, but in the end it was difficult to get angry.
He stared at the other party with a stern expression and asked: "Why should we trust you?"
Ye Pang squinted his eyes and looked at Li Danqing with a smile. He naturally understood the hostility between his eyebrows. He simply closed the wooden box and sat down there.
"Young master, look, you are the ones who came to me. I don't have anyone to look for you. If you are willing to talk, let's talk openly. If you feel that I am not worthy of trust, then let me go."
At the back, you two can leave."
The expression on Ye Pang's face was leisurely, without any trace of anxiety. He seemed to be sure that Li Danqing and Li Danqing would not leave just like that.
But Li Danqing is not a person who can bear hidden losses. This matter has been weird from the beginning. What does everything in the dream mean? Li Danqing can't tell whether the things involved are a blessing or a curse.
, and Ye Pang's attitude really annoyed him.
"Huh, since Mr. Ye is not sincere, I can't force myself to say goodbye!" Li Danqing cupped his hands, and after saying this, he turned around and left.
But before he could take a step forward, Luo Anan beside him stretched out his hand and grabbed the corner of Li Danqing's clothes.
"Dean...I...I want to save them." Luo Anan said softly, but his head lowered at this moment.
She is not usually the kind of person who takes the initiative to ask for help. Most of the time, she just obeys everyone's preferences and quietly does her own thing. Such proactive things seem to be in Li Danqing's memory.
It was the first time, and she seemed to feel that this approach was inappropriate, so she lowered her head and did not dare to look into Li Danqing's eyes.
Li Danqing was stunned, shook his head and smiled bitterly. This silly girl's temperament is really heartbreaking sometimes.
In the previous dream, the Fangzhou County Chronicle once said that Luo Anan was a Taoist. Based on this alone, Li Danqing would not simply turn a blind eye to the matter. He deliberately left at this moment just to be in this conversation.
To gain more bargaining chips, as soon as Luo Anan said these words, Li Danqing's pretentiousness lost its meaning.
He had to stop and look sideways at Ye Pang behind him, only to see the man still squatting on the wooden box, staring at Li Danqing with a smile, as if he had guessed that such a situation would happen from the beginning.
.
Li Danqing, who always liked to take the initiative, naturally didn't like the look on Ye Pang's face at this moment, but he also understood that after Luo Anan's words came out, it would be difficult for him to use any means. He could only look at him at that time.
The other party said: "We should have had the same dream as you yesterday, if it was really just a dream..."
Hearing this, Ye Pang seemed to smell something. He raised his brows and looked at Li Danqing and said: "Your Excellency, you mean, is it not just a dream?"
"Do you think if it was just a dream, why would this thing appear here?" Li Danqing said, taking out the golden finger bone again and shaking it gently in front of Ye Pang.
Ye Pang fell into silence. After dozens of breaths, he suddenly raised his head and looked at Li Danqing.
At that moment, he didn't know if it was Li Danqing's illusion, but he felt that all the drunkenness on the face of the man in front of him seemed to have dissipated at that moment.
"Fenglai Academy is an inheritance left by our ancestors." He opened his mouth and spoke in a low voice, completely different from the carefree look he had before.
"My ancestors have been scholars since the founding of the Wuyang Dynasty, and those who are older than that can no longer take the exam."
Li Danqing was noncommittal about Ye Pang's remarks. After all, Wu Yangchao had been committed to destroying everything about the previous dynasty.
, after Taizu established the dynasty, he went around to collect any documents that were recorded in the previous dynasty. In this regard, Taizu did everything he could, and the genealogies of many large families were repaired or burned because of this.
, just because the ancestors mentioned in the genealogy are more or less inevitably related to the previous dynasty. This has also caused that, to this day, many families have questions about what the ancestors before the Wuyang Dynasty did.
, every deed became ambiguous. And what Ye Pang said was not uncommon in the Wuyang Dynasty.
"Speaking of it, we can be considered a famous family. When Fenglai Academy started, we had nearly ten thousand disciples. There were quite a few students from Yanma County, and there were also people from other states and counties who came here admiringly.
"
"But it's a pity that after so many years, starting from the generation of my great-grandfather, few descendants of my family's academy have lived beyond the age of forty. I don't know if there are any hidden diseases in the family. After all, all my ancestors have been born early in these years.
In his early years, my father was so busy maintaining the declining college that he didn’t get married until he was twenty-seven and gave birth to me. However, my father did not escape the family’s historical fate. He passed away at the age of forty-four, and so did I.
That’s when I took over Fenglai Academy.”
"In the past few years of Fenglai Academy, because every president has been younger, the inheritance of the academy has been declining. By the time I took over the academy, there were only a few hundred disciples left in the academy, down from nearly 10,000.
"
"Everyone in the world is envious of those who have mastered martial arts. If they advance, they can go into battle and kill enemies and make great achievements. If they retreat, they can follow the stars and enjoy the moon and escape the world. Extraordinary ones can even open up holy mountains and be famous for eternity."
"Few people care about the sage's teachings and the principles of governance in this article, not to mention that Fenglai Academy has been in decline over the years, and there are even fewer students under it. I was only sixteen when I took over the academy.
Although he has been strictly disciplined by his father since he was a child, he can be regarded as a well-read man despite being extremely knowledgeable and talented. However, he is still young and cannot convince the public. The only few gentlemen in the courtyard are also
They all resigned from their posts and looked for other options."
"Fenglai College is even worse and unsustainable. My father always said when he was alive, the mission of the college is to teach and educate people, so that the world can understand the ways of sages and their aspirations. Every man can cultivate himself, and those who are masters can bring peace to the country. This college has been passed down from generation to generation.
I have to keep working hard no matter what."
"It's just that the gentlemen who taught at that time were all crazy. As a sixteen-year-old child, it was difficult to recruit decent students, so I had to settle for the next best thing and find some children to teach them some basic literacy skills.
Things. Although I have been living a chilly life these days, I am finally worthy of my ancestors and can continue to run this college."
"In this way, when I was twenty years old, the college was improving under my management. I was quite serious about the students, the children were hardworking, and the articles I wrote were decent, and I myself
I wrote some poems when I had nothing to do, which made Yanma County somewhat famous. From time to time, some disciples began to come and join my sect. I thought that the college would prosper under my leadership, but until
That day..."
"I had a good time with a few people and got very drunk, so I let them stay in the courtyard. I returned to my apartment in a daze and fell asleep on the bed. That night was the first time in my life that I did that.
In the dream, there seemed to be many people surrounding me, saying something to me, but I couldn’t hear their voices clearly, and I couldn’t see their appearance. I fell asleep like this all night, and when I woke up again,
There was a raging fire in the academy, and the cries of the children gathered together. The entire academy was shrouded in flames, like a purgatory on earth."
Having said this, Ye Pang's body began to tremble slightly, as if at this moment, he was back to the night described in his words.
His head was buried very low at this time, covering his head with both hands, and his voice was slightly dull: "I started looking for people to put out the fire at the first time, but the fire was too big, and hundreds of people struggled to carry water to put it out.
, it is difficult to stop the fire
Seeing the fire engulfing the sleeping children in the courtyard, I couldn’t care less and rushed into the sea of fire, trying to rescue them from the sea of fire. But... even if I risked my life, I could only escape from the sea of fire.
Rescued three dying children..."
"At that time, there were seven hundred children in Fenglai Academy, but only three survived in the end. Hundreds of people died. It was a big case. The county magistrate's office sent officials to interrogate, trying to find out.
Is this a natural disaster or a man-made disaster? It happened that the three children were treated and recovered, and on the day of the trial, they identified me as the murderer of the arson in front of everyone."
"I naturally would not admit such an unfounded disaster. After several arguments, more eyewitnesses came to identify me, and everyone pointed the finger at me. I just thought that someone was deliberately framing me, and I refused to plead guilty. Even if it was
I was imprisoned in a dungeon and was beaten by the guards in all possible ways, but I was never beaten to death. But that night, I fell asleep again in a daze, and had such a strange dream again, and everything in the dream still remained the same.
It was unreal, but when I woke up, the jailor and all the prisoners in the cell were all killed..."
"This matter spread and alarmed the imperial court. A big shot sent by the Demon Suppression Division personally interrogated me. I was also frightened at the time, but I still told the truth about my experience. The big shot personally checked me, and then
It is asserted that I am possessed by a demon, so after losing consciousness, the demon will drive my body to do those harmful things."
"The adult tried many ways to get rid of the demons for me, but they all ended in failure. I wanted to die to apologize, but the adult told me that once I die, the demons in my body will escape and start again.
He is looking for a new host to cause trouble, and the best way is to keep me alive, and then he will use secret methods to slowly reduce the strength of the evil demon, and finally kill it with one blow."
Li Danqing and Luo An'an heard such a bizarre story, and their faces looked a little strange at that time.
Li Danqing spent some effort to digest this story, but he still felt unbelievable.
He has stayed in Wuyang City for so many years, and the gates of the three mansions and nine divisions are his, Prince Li's, places to play, but there is never a place he can't go, there is nothing he can't see, but he has never seen anything about it.
The most outrageous thing about the records of demons is that they are neither humans nor ghosts in the Fierce Yin Mountains to the west. However, this kind of demon that possesses the human body and commits evil has never been heard of. Even if the person involved is speaking with certainty at this moment, Li Danqing still feels that
Hidden tricks.
"Then since you are so dangerous, why didn't that gentleman imprison you, but let you continue to move freely in this city? Isn't he afraid that the evil spirit in your body will take you to escape?" Li Danqing discovered the weirdness of the matter.
Where, asked at this time.
Ye Pang still lowered his head and said in a muffled voice: "Of course that adult has his own way of restraining the evil spirits in my body, not to mention..."
Speaking of this, Ye Pang's voice suddenly became a bit low and cold.
His lowered head slowly lifted up to look at Li Danqing. At this time, there was no trace of drunkenness on his face, but instead there was a sinister and sinister smile.
"What's more, the evil spirit in my body will also call his kind to come, bringing golden things as tokens to meet me. With this, wouldn't it just be possible to catch all these dirty things like you?!"
Ye Pang's pupils were ignited with fierce fire. As soon as he finished speaking, there was suddenly a rapid sound of horse hooves outside the courtyard gate. A large group of soldiers on war horses filed in from outside the courtyard gate and killed them.
In front of Li Danqing and Luo An'an, they were surrounded. At this moment, a beautiful woman in a blue long skirt swayed her figure, stood out from the crowd, and slowly walked to Li Danqing, squinting her eyes.
said.
"It's two more evil spirits who have thrown themselves into a trap. Ye Pang, the contribution you have made to our Wu Yang Dynasty over the years is more than worth it."
