I Just Won’t Play by the Book

Chapter 475: good news

"Master, please accept me, I will be very disciplined." Seeing that the master was willing to say a few more words to himself, Shi Yutong stepped up the offensive and said

Before Jiang Beiran answered, the system options jumped out.

[Option 1: "I said that I will not accept disciples." Completion reward: Yanlin Demon Book (Earth-level medium grade)]

[Option 2: Take out a tortoise shell and tell Shi Yutong which day you can use this to figure out where you are, and accept her as a disciple any day. Completion reward: random basic attribute point +1]

‘This routine is a bit familiar. ’

It’s like setting the five golden flowers to become the first disciple of Guixinzong... well, it’s an almost impossible task. Let them focus on how to become stronger, and it won’t always be The moth came to him.

In other words, blindly rejecting Shi Yutong will only make her more excited, so she can come up with more ways to apprentice.

Simply set her an impossible goal, and her thoughts were disguised.

‘High! ’

After choosing two, Jiang Beiran took out a tortoise shell from the Qiankun Ring and handed it to Shi Yutong, "Since you are so sincere, then I will give you a chance. Do you know what this is?"

Hearing that the master finally relieved, Shi Yutong said happily: "I know, tortoise shell divination."

"Fortune-telling is a skill that requires a lot of talent. If you don't have this talent, then it is meaningless to worship me as a teacher. Therefore, if you want to become my apprentice, you must first pass my test."

The thing that Shi Yutong is most afraid of in this life is the test, so he answered without thinking: "I don't know what kind of test the master will give me?"

Showing the back of the tortoise shell to Shi Yutong, Jiang Beiran asked, "Do you know why you use a tortoise shell for divination?"

Shi Yutong had obviously taught fortune-telling by himself, so he replied confidently: "There are three squares in the tortoise pattern, which represent the three talents of heaven, earth, and human, respectively, and there are twenty-four squares next to it, which represent the twenty-four solar terms. There are also twelve grids at the bottom, representing the twelve earthly branches."

Then Shi Yutong stretched out three fingers and continued: "All the characteristics add up to correspond to the gossip's three talents, the heavenly stems and the earthly branches. Master, am I correct?"

"Yes, this is tortoise shell divination." Jiang Beiran said, shaking the tortoise shell in his hand and motioned to Shi Yutong to take it.

When Shi Yutong took the tortoise shell, Jiang Beiran said: "The test I give you is that one day you can use this tortoise shell to find out where I am, and I will accept you as a disciple."

[The optional task has been completed, reward: Charm +1]

‘Ah fuck! Handsome crazy, this is! ’

Seeing that the charm has increased a bit, Jiang Beiran feels painful. Seeing this brand new attribute point is "catching up" with the first four basic attributes, Jiang Beiran feels liver tremor.

If it keeps on growing like this, God knows which monsters and demons will be attracted in the future.

Holding the tortoise shell and looking over it over and over again, Shi Yutong looked up at Jiang Beiran and said, "Okay, I will definitely complete this test."

Shi Yutong's reaction surprised Jiang Beiran. He thought that Shi Yutong would first teach him how to use tortoise shells for divination, but she didn't mean to ask at all.

I don't know if she has mastered the divination of tortoise shells, or whether she has regarded it as part of the test.

But no matter what it is, Shi Yutong is considered to be in line with Jiang Beiran's first requirement for taking the initiative to accept disciples.

Self-sufficiency.

For the task given by the master, there are only four words "guarantee to complete".

As for the difficult part of the task, it is all on your own to find a way to solve it.

This is a perfect subordinate.

"Okay, I look forward to that day." After Jiang Beiran said, he bypassed Shi Yutong and walked forward.

Seeing the master leaving behind, Shi Yutong shook the tortoise shell in his hand, and smiled slightly when he heard the muffled noise of the copper coins inside.

‘An expert is an expert, and the trials given are so unique, I love it! ’

…

After bidding farewell to Shi Yutong, Jiang Beiran first went to the entrance of Shengxian's Mansion to pick up Liu Weining who was stored here, and then took her back to Linglongfang. Now the main purpose is completed, and the rest of the time can be reminiscent of the past.

When he arrived at the Taiyi Pavilion, Jiang Beiran said to Liu Weining, "You just stay on the first floor and play by yourself."

Liu Weining, who was rubbing against Yu, nodded and said, "Okay, okay."

Nodding his head, Jiang Beiran went straight to the second floor and saw Lu Yangyu sitting in the armchair of his master's chair.

Jiang Beiran was not polite, and directly sat on the chair next to Lu Yangyu and said, "I don't know what the curator Lu is thinking about?"

After hearing this, Lu Yangyu smiled slightly and replied: "I was thinking that the young girl now has a really good heart."

"..."

Jiang Beiran of course knew that Lu Yangyu was talking about the pair of maids who supported him in the morning, but when he thought of such a small incident, Lu Yangyu had to remember until now, Jiang Beiran had to sigh with emotion.

‘The happiness of old **** is so simple. ’

Taking out an altar of Jade Huchun from Qiankun Ring and placing it on the table, Jiang Beiran opened the wine seal and said, "I just took it out of the cellar, taste it?"

The moment Lu Yangyu smelled the wine, Lu Yangyu no longer calmed down, put down his feet and leaned forward and said, "It's my brother who understands me. I'm so greedy these days."

"It's not that you have taught you the method of distillation. Why, still can't make spirits?"

"Hey, don't mention it." Lu Yangyu waved his hand, "It's strong, but the taste is far from your brother, but Lao Fu is studying it with great concentration during this period. It should be good in a while. Yes, of course, it’s still incomparable with your brother’s."

Listening to Lu Yangyu's continuous flattery, Jiang Beiran took out a wine bowl and poured some for him and said, "I left you some good wine before I left. I drank it all?"

"I can't drink enough of those wines by myself. Lao Fu will come here from time to time. It's long gone." Lu Yangyu said, taking a deep breath, and exclaiming, "Tsk, this fragrance!"

After speaking, he drank all the wine in the bowl.

"Ha~" Satisfied with a breath of alcohol, Lu Yangyu leaned back in the chair with a pleasant expression, seeming to be aftertaste.

When Jiang Beiran helped him pour the second cup, Lu Yangyu suddenly said: "Brother thinks of me so, I have nothing to return. You were asking about Gu Xianweng before, so I helped you to inquire carefully. In a few days I heard that Gu Xianweng seems to be going to Wei State. If you still want to find him, you can try your luck."

After Jiang Beiran listened to the hand holding the wine jar, he did have the idea of wanting to inquire about Gu Liangren when he came to Shi’s family this time, but this kind of mysterious big man who everyone wants to find but can’t find, he It's not easy to ask at will.

So I just put it on hold, and now I heard Lu Yangyu helped him find out the news, I couldn't help but say with joy: "Thank you very much, Curator Lu, indeed, I'm indeed still looking for that Liangren Gu."

Picking up the wine bowl and taking a sip, Jiang Beiran continued to ask: "I don't know if I know he wants to go abroad, is there any more specific news?"

"That must be true. Otherwise, I'm not fooling you, brother." Lu Yangyu finished drinking and continued: "My brother told me this news. He is now working as a guardian in Senluozong in Wei State. He and I said that their suzerain seems to have invited Gu Xianweng to go to them, but the news is not necessarily accurate."

After listening, Jiang Beiran nodded thoughtfully.

"If you really want to find it, I'll tell my senior, he will help you." Picking up the wine jar and pouring himself a bowl, Lu Yangyu said again: "I thought about the news and let you know more specifically. Yes, but just now you are here, so I will tell you first."

After thinking for a moment, Jiang Beiran put down his wine bowl and said, "Okay, then please ask Curator Lu to help me introduce your brother."

Anyway, it's just to try his luck. If you run into it, Jiang Beiran does have a lot of things to ask him, but if you don't, it means that the fate has not yet arrived, and he doesn't force it.

Seeing that Jiang Beiran was sure to find Gu Xianweng, Lu Yangyu slapped his thigh and said, "No problem, I will write to my brother now."

"Thanks a lot."

"Why are you so polite with me, brother, you should be." Lu Yangyu finished speaking and walked to the study.

After a while, Lu Yangyu walked out of the study again and said to Jiang Beiran: "The letter has been sent out. I will tell you when my brother replied."

"become."

Sit down again and picked up the wine bowl and touched Jiang Beiran. Lu Yangyu suddenly remembered something and said, "Old Shen hasn't come to me for a while. Is he still busy with the page?"

"Yeah." Jiang Beiran nodded, "I have found someone who is looking for him with him."

"I'll just say, if he is looking for it himself, he must come to me for help every two days."

Listening to Lu Yangyu's words, Jiang Beiran couldn't help thinking that Xiao Qi didn't know how the matter was going, but since he hadn't written a letter asking for help, it showed that it was going well.

Otherwise, Xiao Qi will definitely focus on completing the task, rather than staying hard.

When the two jars of wine were down, Lu Yangyu suddenly stood up and said, "I'll go in to see if the brother has answered his letter."

Jiang Beiran raised his wine bowl to signal that he knew it.

After a while, Lu Yangyu walked out again and said, "It seems that the senior brother did not retreat today, and the reply has already come."

Sitting back on the grandmaster's chair, Lu Yangyu took out a ruler and handed it to Jiang Beiran, "This ruler is a token that my brother and I have agreed to. Hold it."

Nodding his head, Jiang Beiran took Fachi over.

"As for the specific location, I'll show you a map later, but you only need to go to Wei State and find Senluo Sect. It is the top sect of Wei State Pai, and there are two mysterious ones. Saint sits in it."

Jiang Beiran couldn't help but smile after hearing this: "This Gu Xianweng really only deals with big people."

"No, ordinary people can't invite him." After saying that, Lu Yangyu went back to find a map, drew a circle on it and handed it to Jiang Beiran, "This is the location of Senluozong, you just have to hold it. Fazhi stays at the foot of the mountain, my brother will find you."

"Okay." Jiang Beiran took the map and took a look, and he probably had a number in his heart.

"It shouldn't be too late. I don't know when this Gu Xianweng will come, or you can just go over and wait now."

Jiang Beiran thought for a while and now there is really nothing eager to do right now, so he put a Qiankun ring on the table and said: "Okay, then I will have a drink with the curator when I come back."

"Well, wait for you."

When Jiang Beiran turned and went downstairs, Lu Yangyu picked up the Qiankun ring he had placed on the table and looked inside, and the smile on his face suddenly brightened.

Coming to the first floor, Jiang Beiran said to Liu Weining, who was empty-eyed, "Return the jade to me, I have to go."

Liu Weining woke up like a dream, and with a lost face, she took out five cyan jade statues and said: ‘Can’t you really change it? ’

"I said, when you can find this kind of jade by yourself, I'll change it with you."

"Okay." Nodding, Liu Weining returned Honghuyu to Jiang Beiran with a look of dismay.
