I Can’t Be a Sword God

There is a saying:

The beautiful scenery of Hangzhou is unparalleled in the world, and the exotic flowers and plants on the shore of the West Lake are fragrant all the year round.

The pink willows and green willows on the Sudi in spring, and the lotus flowers in the summer are all over the pond. In autumn, the bright moon is like clear water, and in winter, the mountains are covered with auspicious snow...

From Yuhang Town along the Liuhua River, after passing Yunhe County, is Hangzhou Mansion.

This road is full of waves, with mountains and flowers on both sides.

A small cruise ship is slowly departing from Yuhang Town.

At the stern of the boat, the boatman wearing a bamboo hat yelled and greeted his colleagues.

At the bow, there are two bright figures standing.

One is a young Taoist priest in a neat blue shirt, standing tall, with clear eyebrows and bright eyes.

Looking at his figure and appearance, it always makes people feel that... the world's bells are nothing more than this, and the rest of the living beings are sloppy.

Standing beside him was a girl in colorful clothes, wearing a cloudy skirt covered with fringes, with a figure that hadn't fully grown yet, with a slender waist and slender legs.

She wears a pair of ponytails, her skin is crystal clear and white, and she has big eyes, looking at the surrounding scenery, a little excited, but also seems to hide some indelible melancholy.

These two people are exactly Li Chu, the founder and closed disciple of Yu Qi'an, the master of Yuhang Town, Shilipo, and Deyun Temple.

And his demon slave, a koi carp man named Yue'er.

Li Chu's trip was just yesterday when he received a blood letter from his friend Wang Longqi asking for help, and he planned to rush to the Zhengqi Academy in Fucheng to check the situation.

The reason why she brought Xiaoyue'er was because she had completely transformed after eating the Dragon Fruit.

This time, she changed from a heartless little koi to a human being with rich emotions and thoughts.

Once the fish becomes smart, it is easy to worry.

She thought of the whereabouts of her clansmen were unknown, and she was alone, no matter how good her life was, she couldn't be happy.

In addition, she also recalled that her grandfather, the patriarch of the koi carp, had a human name called Liu Chao'an.

So she, along with her grandfather, also had a big name, called Liu Yue.

Yu Qi'an felt that Liu Yue's name was too vulgar, like a country girl. It's better to change "月" to "Yue", which is more elegant.

Li Chu firmly rejected the proposal.

Very resolute.

This time, when I went to Fucheng, I brought the little koi with me, just to let her relax and stop thinking about those bad things.

Xiaoyue'er looked at the lake and mountains around her, and gradually, her mood did ease a little.

The cruise ship passed by a ferry, and the ferry was bustling with people, quite lively.

Taking advantage of the flow of people, there were also many hawkers setting up stalls to sell, and there was a lot of people's voices.

There were also quite a few people who saw the appearance of the man at the bow and couldn't help turning their eyes over to wait and see.

Yue'er pulled Li Chu's arm: "Master, what do you think those people are selling? They are colorful and beautiful."

Li Chu looked over and replied: "That's a river lantern. The Mid-Autumn Festival is coming soon, and people will release river lanterns to make wishes. If you like it, I will buy one for you at that time."

"Okay." Xiaoyue'er nodded, and then raised her innocent eyes: "Write your wish on the river lantern, will it really come true?"

"Not at all." Li Chu shook his head decisively.

Once, twice.

The innocence in Xiao Yue'er's eyes was also ruthlessly shattered...

"And..." Li Chu said to her again: "Don't call me master anymore. It's broad daylight and there are so many people outside. Others will find it strange to hear it."

"Hmm... what's the name?"

Li Chu suggested: "You and I are not as good as brothers and sisters."

"But people are used to it..." Xiaoyue'er thought for a while, and said, "That's not as good as from now on, our brothers and sisters during the day..."

"It's also at night." Li Chu immediately emphasized with a firm tone.

The little koi had no choice but to nod, flicking her ponytails back and forth, as if expressing her confusion about human behavior.

...

The boat sailed from the end of the ferry to the end of the ferry. I didn't want to think about this short moment, the sky above my head changed its color.

The sunny day turned into cloudy clouds in a blink of an eye.

When the boat was about to go far, there were already fine raindrops falling.

The boatman was wearing a bamboo hat and didn't care about the rain, while Li Chu and Xiao Yue'er hid in the cabin and sat down.

At this time, I heard someone calling softly from the shore: "Boater——"

The boatman turned his head to look over, and found two women trotting towards the shore, waving towards them as they ran.

One of the two girls was dressed in a brocade white dress with fluttering long skirts. Her black hair was coiled in a delicate snow bun, and her temples were swaying in the wind and rain. Although she couldn't see her face clearly, she could still feel her dusty temperament, and her appearance was definitely not bad.

The other one is wearing a green gauze dress, she seems to be a little younger, with a slightly shorter stature and a lighter gait, making her look lively and lovely.

Seeing that they were two beautiful girls, the boatman replied: "Hey——"

The woman in Tsing Yi shouted again: "My master and servant are traveling here, and it rains suddenly today, I wonder if you can let us take a boat?"

Said Gonggong: "My boat is booked by the young master in front, and it's going to Fucheng."

The woman in Tsing Yi said happily: "Then we will be on the way."

The boatman opened the curtain of the cabin and said: "Brother, it's raining fast, and there are two girls who are on the way, why don't we give them a ride?"

At this time, the woman shouted again: "We can pay more for the boat!"

Li Chu immediately said: "Of course there is no reason not to get along, how can the two girls be exposed to the rain."

Shaoqing.

The cruise ship docked, the boatman boarded the board, and the two girls boarded the boat slowly.

At this time, he could see clearly, and the boatman's eyes were almost straight.

The white-clothed woman looked like she was born flawless. A pair of Jianshui autumn pupils, there seems to be a consonant reflection between Gu Pan. When walking, it is like the wind blowing willows, indescribably graceful and gentle.

The boatman searched his mind for a long time, and only came up with one idiom.

His mother looks like a fairy.

The girl in Tsing Yi behind her looks only fifteen or sixteen years old, with bright eyes and bright teeth, cute and innocent. Beside a stunning woman, she doesn't look vulgar, she is already a natural beauty.

The two women thanked the boatman, bent down and sat in the cabin.

It's a small cabin, and it seems a bit crowded when four people sit in it at once.

Li Chu and Xiao Jinyu sat on one side, and the two women sat on the other side, separated only by a narrow backing board.

It can be said that it is face to face.

It would be a bit embarrassing if you didn't speak.

The woman in white spoke first: "Thank you, sir, for your help. Otherwise, we two weak women really don't know what to do in such a rainy day."

Li Chu hurriedly nodded in response: "Miss, you are welcome, this is what should be done."

The little girl in Tsing Yi rolled her eyes, looked at Li Chu curiously, and immediately asked, "Master, where did you come from?"

"I'm Li Chu, a Taoist priest from Shilipo and Deyun Temple outside Yuhang Town." Li Chu replied, "This Yue'er is my younger sister. I took her to Fucheng to visit friends."

Now that Li Chu answered her name, the woman in white said: "The little girl's name is Qin Shuangbai, she came from Jianmen Mansion in Tiannanzhou, and she is also going to visit relatives in Hangzhou City."

"My name is Yuqing, and I'm Miss's personal servant girl." The little girl in Tsing Yi said eagerly.

"Huh?" Li Chuwen said: "The two girls have traveled a long way from Tiannanzhou to visit relatives here."

Tiannanzhou is located in the southwest, and Jiangnanzhou is in the southeast, although they are both in the south and border in the middle. But Yuhang Town is on the side of Jiangnan Continent close to the East China Sea, while Jianmen Mansion is on the side of Tiannan Continent close to the vast mountains in the west.

There is a long distance between them.

"To tell you the truth..."

Qin Shuangbai's seductive pupils turned, and the sparkle in them dimmed, as if they could pull people into her eyes at once, and felt strands of sadness.

"My parents passed away unexpectedly, and my family was really in trouble, so I came to join my relatives in desperation."

Speaking of sad things, Qin Shuang's eyes were filled with water, as if he was about to cry.

"Miss Qin...Please give me some condolences." Li Chu comforted.

"Hmm!" Seeing this, Xiaoyue'er also wanted to comfort her, thought for a while, and said, "Sister Qin, don't be too sad, not only your parents are dead. My parents don't know whether they are dead, but they also I can't find it. My brother's parents are also dead! You are nothing special."

"..." Qin Shuangbai was taken aback.

Is this... consolation?

"Uh." Yu Qing looked at the two of them and asked, "Aren't your brother and sister... parents the same?"

"she is me……"

Li Chuzheng wanted to explain it from which family relationship.

I heard Xiaoyue'er say: "We are brothers and sisters with different fathers and mothers."

Three people: "?"

...

The waterway is not far away, and when the cruise ship enters the area of ​​Fucheng, pavilions and pavilions gradually appear on both sides of the river. Even on rainy days, many pedestrians leave the street with umbrellas.

The boatman shouted: "You two girls, are you under the Taiping Gate? This is it."

"Ah, yes." Yu Qing responded, and looked at Qin Shuangbai with a smile: "Miss, we are here."

Qin Shuangbai nodded lightly, and said to Li Chu, "Xiao Daoist Li, then we will meet again in the future."

"Well, goodbye."

Yu Qing poked her head out to have a look, and said, "It's still raining a lot, do you have umbrellas on the boat?"

The boatman grinned: "We are rough people who wear coir raincoats and bamboo hats. How can we prepare umbrellas? We can't do work with those things, and they can't stop the rain when there is wind."

The little koi lowered its head, untied two umbrellas from the burden on the ground, and shouted: "We have two umbrellas here, why don't you use them first?"

Qin Shuangbai took the umbrella and thanked him, "Thank you, where do you two live in Fucheng? I'll send you the umbrella later, shall I?"

Li Chudao: "I'm not sure yet, Miss Qin, where are you going to visit relatives, why don't I come to pick it up some other day?"

"That's fine." Qin Shuangbai nodded, "I should be in Weeping Willow Alley in front of Taipingmen Street, the second house on the right hand side of the alley entrance."

"Okay." Li Chu nodded and wrote it down.

Immediately, the two girls got off the boat lightly.

The boatman looked at the graceful figure for a long time, and then reluctantly punted away.

Strangely, the sky cleared immediately after the two girls got off the boat.

Xiaoyue'er immediately pulled Li Chu again, bouncing out of the cabin.

Now there's more to see.

Fucheng is surrounded by the Liuhua River, which is the busiest section of the street. There are various shops on both sides, restaurants and teahouses, car dealers and horse shops, street vendors and vendors, jugglers...

Even if Xiaoyue'er went out to play in the past, it was only near Yuhang Town. Wherever she has been to such a prosperous place, her eyes are full of light.

Unknowingly, the boat sailed to a shallow bay.

Looking around, there are scattered green hills in front of you, and the nearest one is not far from Qianwan.

Ancient Huaishan.

Zhengqi Academy is on this mountain.

According to legend, it was a down-and-out official from the former dynasty who was dissatisfied with the dim government and resigned angrily. Passing through the mountains here, I met a great demon named "Huai Zu".

This ancestor Huai is a monster who has cultivated in the mountains for an unknown number of years and has great avenues. It was attracted by the righteousness of the officials that they couldn't help showing up.

He told the officials that the world will be overthrown, and there is nowhere to display your talents and ambitions. It is better to build a school here and pass on your righteousness. A hundred years later, it will come in handy.

The officials followed his words and built an academy in the mountain, named "Zhengqi Academy".

Not to mention peaches and plums, after such a hundred years, Zhengqi Academy has blossomed and produced a generation of heroes.

In the past hundred years, after experiencing the great battle between gods and demons, and Heluo Dingding, the world has really changed drastically.

When the balance of the world was restored and it was time for employment, the outstanding talents who came out of the Zhengqi Academy would soon shine in the Heluo Chaotang, and the academy they were born in became famous all over the world.

It became one of the four major academies.

...

Li Chu took the little koi to climb the mountain slowly, and there were many people downstream at the foot of the mountain.

From the past, most of them are children and teenagers, accompanied by their parents, coming here to gain talent. Looking up at the vast academy loft halfway up the mountain, let the children have aspirations.

There was a father on the side of the road, standing with his waist pinched, looking at the academy on the mountain, and asked: "Son, do you have any ambitions when you grow up?"

The little boy looked around and saw Li Chu, so he tugged on his father's sleeve and said loudly, "Daddy, I want to look like that brother when I grow up!"

His father's face sank: "Then something will happen! You must look like your father."

The little boy blinked and cried with a loud cry.

His father hurriedly comforted him: "Men, it doesn't matter if they are older or ugly, the most important thing is to be talented!"

Up again, and soon reached the mountainside.

After passing the stone tablet of "Zhengqi Academy", you can't easily enter.

There is a mountain pavilion, which is stuck with the only stone step road up the mountain.

There are guards of the academy in the pavilion.

Li Chu stepped forward to report: "I came here from Yuhang Town to visit a friend, I wonder if I can enter?"

The guard glanced at him, "Who is your friend?"

"Wang Longqi." Li Chu replied.

"Oh?" The guard suddenly raised his eyebrows and said with a smile, "Seventh Young Master is your friend?"

"Um."

"Go in, go forward along the stone steps, turn right, the third attic. Wang Shaogang came here not long ago, he seems to be living on the third floor, you can find out where you are when you go there."

"Thank you." After thanking Li Chu, he turned and left.

It's also a bit surprising that Wang Longqi seems to be able to make friends with anyone.

Following the path pointed by the guard, he soon came to the academy.

There are dozens of gentlemen and hundreds of students in Zhengqi Academy. It can't be said that there are many people, but there are countless pavilions and lofts. I don't know what they are used for.

The people I met on the road were all wearing Confucian shirts with wide robes and large sleeves, and they all walked with windy gait, looking very anxious.

What's more, while walking, he was holding scriptures and chanting.

Li Chu felt a little familiar inexplicably.

In the past, he also studied in the best school in the province.

Those students who scored 100 to 600 points lower than him in the exam always looked anxious and worked hard.

Every time he walks leisurely through the campus, he will feel a little envious when he looks at those classmates who have to memorize even when they eat and walk.

That's right, envy.

I envy them that they can make progress as long as they work hard.

And he never made progress.

...

When you get to the third attic, turn right and go inside.

I found that the first floor of the attic is a large room with pens, ink, paper and inkstones. Some people are sitting, and some are empty. It should be a place similar to a self-study room.

It's just that the people inside don't study by themselves, they are all discussing something loudly, which sounds like something related to learning.

Li Chu shook his head.

It is impossible for Wang Longqi to be here.

The second and third floors are similar to dormitories. It is daytime, and there are very few people on these two floors.

It happened that a scholar came downstairs in a hurry, so Li Chu stopped him and asked, "Where does Wang Longqi live?"

The scholar smiled: "Seventh Young Master? He is in the innermost room on the third floor."

"Thank you." Li Chu cupped his hands in thanks.

"You're welcome, Qi Shao's friends are my friends."

The scholar suddenly patted Li Chu's shoulder with a quack air.

Go upstairs again, and you will come to the room he mentioned.

I saw that the door of the room was covered with cinnabar and yellow talismans, like a place to seal demons...

Li Chu frowned, and he hurried forward to knock on the door.

Boom.

He heard Wang Longqi's voice from the door, "Who?"

Li Chudao: "It's me."

"Li Chu!"

Wang Longqi suddenly let out a cry.

Then there was the sound of running, he ran over to open the door, and shouted: "You are finally here!"

Across him, Li Chu could see that the room was also filled with all kinds of magical artifacts.

Vajra Bell, Demon Pestle, Mahogany Sword, Bronze Mirror...

He couldn't help wondering: "What happened?"

Wang Longqi let him in, and said in a trembling voice:

"Our academy is haunted by monsters!"

"Big monster!"

Feel sorry. I stayed up all night the night before, and I only woke up this afternoon... I woke up with a headache, alas, it is no longer the time to go to an Internet cafe for two nights... It will be too late to organize the outline.

This chapter is light, there is no explosive point, and it is a big chapter. In fact, it is better to disassemble it, and it looks like a little more update. But... for the sake of completeness of the plot, I still co-authored it.

Originally, it was just over 5,000 words, but I specifically picked out a paragraph and deleted it, so that I could charge a little less money.

Even if I have two chapters, the agreed basic three changes, I owe one chapter... plus the 15 chapters I owed before... it will become 16 chapters...

Everyone supervise me, before I pay it off. Definitely not asking for anything other than a subscription.

Posted at this time, I feel sorry for my boutique badge again...
