When it was late at night and everyone was quiet, Jiang Beiran walked briskly towards Lanxintang. On the way, he looked up at the sky and saw that the sky was filled with sparkling stars, like fine quicksand spread on the night sky.
‘I really can’t get enough of this starry night view.’
With a sigh of appreciation in his heart, Jiang Beiran picked up the wine bottle hanging on his waist and poured a sip of "Qionghua Dew" into his mouth.
Jiang Beiran, whose footsteps became more and more brisk, soon returned home, but just as he was about to open the door, a familiar voice rang in his ears.
"Senior brother."
Looking back, with his excellent night vision ability, Jiang Beiran immediately spotted Lin Yuyan hiding on the hillside opposite.
"Is something wrong?" Jiang Beiran responded using voice transmission.
"I just came back from Nanwang County. I brought souvenirs to my senior brother and put them in the old place."
"Thank you." Jiang Beiran said, opening the lid of the water tank next to him and taking out a beautifully packaged brocade box.
"Then senior brother, I will go back first. Good night, senior brother."
Seeing Lin Yuyan's figure quickly disappear into the night, Jiang Beiran turned around and opened the door.
Putting the brocade box on the old wooden table aside, Jiang Beiran gently opened the lid.
'Nine-leaf mica, it's a shame she found this...'
Looking at the umbrella-shaped purple mushroom in the box that was slightly emitting green fluorescence, Jiang Beiran couldn't help but sigh to himself. Looking at the thick layer of spiritual powder on the cap, Jiang Beiran already knew what he should make for his next potion.
After covering the brocade box again, Jiang Beiran thought about what gifts he should give to this little junior sister in the future.
As a "top beauty" who had triggered the lowest and yellow-level option, Jiang Beiran was actually very afraid of this junior sister for a period of time. However, this junior sister's intelligence and positivity were beyond his expectation.
On the other side, Lin Yuyan, who had just seen Jiang Beiran, was walking back contentedly, with a pair of eyes exuding a light that even the dark night could not hide.
'Senior brother said seven words to me today! He also took out the gift I gave him in front of me. This must mean that we are in love, oh!' Thinking of this, Lin Yuyan slapped the side.
On the camphor tree, the shaking leaves "clacked" and fell down.
Over the past four years, through careful and long-distance observation and analysis, Lin Yuyan gradually understood his senior brother's likes and dislikes.
I know that I can't rely on my senior brother when there are many people, I can't call my senior brother in public, and I can't suddenly rush out to surprise my senior brother when I think I have no problem. Otherwise, my senior brother will stare at me with terrible eyes.
'But it's all worth it!'
Lin Yuyan waved her fist, shook off the leaves all over her body, and silently recited ten times in her mind, "The ugly moment is one of the times when senior brother is in the best mood."
Only after remembering it thoroughly can you continue walking back.
…
Early the next morning, Jiang Beiran went to Lan Xinxuan to pay his respects to Cheng Litang as usual and played a few games with him.
After making Cheng Litang laugh with satisfaction, Jiang Beiran stood up to leave, but as soon as he opened the door, he saw Junior Brother Junyu standing in front of the door.
"Senior brother, the hall master asked me to pass you over."
Jiang Beiran first sighed in his heart, and then said: "Okay, lead the way."
Following Junior Brother Junyu all the way to the Zixi Garden in the hall, the two of them came to a sandalwood door and knocked.
"Bei Ran is here, come in."
Hearing Zhang Heqing's voice from inside the house, Jiang Beiran opened the door and walked in.
"Meet the hall master."
Zhang Heqing, who was sitting at the crescent table, took out a cup and poured some Cuiluo tea into it, saying: "No need to salute, come sit down and enjoy tea with me."
"yes."
After answering, Jiang Beiran sat down opposite Zhang Heqing and took the teacup handed to him.
But when he took the tea cup, Jiang Beiran suddenly noticed from the corner of his eye that there was a jade tea cup on the mahogany shelf behind Zhang Heqing. Jiang Beiran, who had been here several times, was sure that he had never seen it anywhere before.
'Could it be...'
Jiang Beiran instantly remembered that it was this jade cup that served her when Protector Yu came last, and he was sure that 99% of it had not been washed...
‘Master! Don’t do this!!!’
Roaring deep in his heart, Jiang Beiran took the teacup calmly.
"Thank you, Master."
Watching Jiang Beiran finish the tea, Zhang Heqing took the initiative to give him another cup and said, "Beiran, how did the matter I asked you last time go?"
Jiang Beiran, who was just thinking about why the hall master was so attentive today, almost wanted to spit out the tea he just drank back to him.
'I see, you are always in a hurry!'
Although Zhang Heqing had asked Jiang Beiran for many things, Jiang Beiran could not understand this situation. He was asking himself whether he had gone to the Supreme Protector.
'But it's only been one day!'
After complaining crazily in his mind for a while, Jiang Beiran replied: "Master, I went to Protector Yu so rashly and I don't know what to say."
"Didn't I tell you last time that we should deepen the relationship between the two classes and develop together."
'Master...I taught you this word not because I wanted you to use it in this place...'
"But what we study is chess, and Lan Xintang's specialty is music. How can the two develop together?"
"Why can't it be done? They are all elegant things, and they always have something in common. Moreover, we can also learn martial arts. Lan Xintang's Thousand Thousand Dances is worth learning."
"Hall Master, but this..."
"Okay." Seeing that Jiang Beiran still wanted to shirk, Zhang Heqing said directly: "Just think that this hall master is asking you to do a favor. If this matter comes to pass, didn't you say last time that you wanted to apply for a new place in the back mountain?
A place of cultivation? I’m sure.”
'You are abusing your power!'
There are so many disciples of the Guixin Sect, and everyone wants to apply for a training place in the back mountain, because the back mountain is full of aura and is very suitable for practicing. The reason why Jiang Beiran likes the back mountain is because he wants to use the aura there to nourish his own cultivation.
Herbal medicines and some "small pets" that he keeps, etc., naturally feel that the space is not big enough, but every time he applies, he will be reprimanded by the hall master, saying that giving him one space is a huge exception, and he even thinks of a second one.
At!
Jiang Beiran originally thought that he would only have a chance to succeed when the time he had been waiting for matured, but he did not expect...
'Lick... love is really awesome.'
However, although the conditions offered by Zhang Heqing were already very tempting, when he thought of those junior sisters in Shui Jing Hall who could easily trigger prefecture-level options, Jiang Beiran decided to bear the pain and give up. But as soon as he opened his mouth, three people appeared in front of him.
options.
[Option 1: Reject Zhang Heqing again. Completion reward: Seal of Heavenly Fire (Mid-level Mysterious Grade)]
[Option 2: Use the poison thing to change the topic, completion reward: Fuyao Seal (yellow level top grade)]
[Option 3: Agree to Zhang Heqing’s request. Completion reward: random basic attribute point +1]
'Oh, I knew it...'
Seeing the expected option triggered, Jiang Beiran sighed deeply in his heart.
