I Just Won’t Play by the Book

Chapter 490: Unknown Prophet

Views:

He poured himself a cup of tea, and after drinking it, Shi Yutong took out a jade stick and said to Jiang Beiran, "Brother Jiang, can you tell me which magic weapon is most suitable for finding out the location of others."

Jiang Beiran raised his head after listening, and just about to speak, his attention was completely attracted by the jade stick in Shi Yutong's hand.

Although he had never seen this kind of stick, he could feel that this stick was very different.

Unlike ordinary magic weapons or precious materials, this stick does not contain huge spiritual power, but Jiang Beiran can sense some unknown energy entwined on the jade stick.

"Why are there so many babies on this girl..."

From Baoguang Qiliu when they met for the first time, to the mysterious jade lotus now, she can always come up with treasures that interest her.

And from the way she held up the sign while asking questions, it was clear that she did it on purpose.

'Want to bribe the examiner? '

Looking away, Jiang Beiran replied: "The magic weapon is not the key, the key is your sincerity."

The last time he saw Gu Liangren holding a broken tortoise shell in his hand, Jiang Beiran knew that what the system asked Shi Yutong was not a difficult problem, but an unsolvable one.

Even Gu Liangren can't count him, so what can this little girl count

However, Jiang Beiran also considered another possibility, that is, Gu Liangren wanted to calculate his fate, or even the past and future, so that he directly broke his magic weapon.

But Shi Yutong just wanted to figure out where others were, and the difficulty plummeted, so it wasn't completely impossible.

"Of course I'm sincere, very, very sincere." Shi Yutong took out another jade stick while talking.

'Fuck! '

Jiang Beiran really convinced these second generations of Xuan, why are there so many treasures of each of them.

And this Shi Yutong not only has a lot of treasures, but also lightly told him where Zhan Riliu was last time.

One must know that before this, even Shi Hongfang didn't know where Zhan Riliu was going to find it.

Although, as the granddaughter of a sage, she can indeed be regarded as the second generation of the second generation, but the abilities she has shown cannot be possessed just by being the second generation.

Although Shi Fenglan was able to secretly take out many treasures, her identity was very special, and she could even be said to be the key care object of the entire Shi family.

So if you are self-willed occasionally, the elders of the Shi family should turn a blind eye.

But this kind of treatment should not be available to every junior of the Shi family, otherwise no amount of Shi family babies would be enough for them.

After bowing his head and thinking for a moment, Jiang Beiran suddenly remembered what Shi Jiamu had said when he introduced Shi Yutong to her.

'Her perception ability is very powerful, and she can always avoid it in advance every time she is about to encounter danger. '

Isn't this ability the prophet

With such an association, Jiang Beiran's view of this little girl suddenly changed.

In the past, Jiang Beiran thought that this little girl was innocent on the surface, but she was actually very scheming.

But now it seems that she may have foreseen something, so she approached herself so deliberately.

For a while, Jiang Beiran became very interested in Shi Yutong.

Seeing that Jiang Bei was still silent, Shi Yutong took out another jade stick and said, "Brother Jiang, what does it take to be sincere?"

After taking a sip of tea, Jiang Beiran raised his head and asked, "Is it really just to learn fortune-telling when you approach me?"

Shi Yutong replied with a smile after listening, "Yes."

"Then I told you, I will teach you when you can figure out where I am someday."

After hearing this, Shi Yutong rolled his eyes and said, "Brother Jiang thinks that I want to learn fortune telling from you is just an excuse to get close to you?"

"Since you said no, then it's not."

"Then if I tell Brother Jiang about my other purpose, can you reduce the difficulty of some tests?"

As soon as Shi Yutong finished speaking, the system options popped up.

[Option 1: "Yes." Completion reward: Luo Wang Yaogong (earth-level mid-level)]

[Option 2: "Impossible." Completion reward: random special attribute point +1]

The moment he saw the special attribute point, Jiang Beiran knew that this question could not be asked any further.

The previous options proved that giving Shi Yutong an almost unsolvable problem and letting her figure out how to solve it is the best solution.

But now because of his curiosity about Shi Yutong, he planned to take the initiative to reduce the difficulty of this exam question, so troubles followed.

That is to say, when he asked Shi Yutong this question, the system thought that he was actively looking for a job.

'Could it be that this girl's ability or talent will bring me any trouble? '

In doubt, Jiang Beiran chose the second answer and replied, "Impossible."

[Optional task completed, reward: Divination +1]

'Oh! ? '

Jiang Beiran couldn't help his eyes light up when he saw the [Divination] point. This is definitely one of the special points he wants to get the most.

'Comfortable. '

For a while, Jiang Beiran found Shi Yutong more pleasing to the eye. Of course, the distance that should be kept must be maintained.

Shi Yutong was a little surprised to hear Jiang Beiran's decisive answer.

She thought that since Brother Jiang had discovered something and had brought up the question, he would definitely break the casserole and ask the end, but she didn't expect that she just made a small request, and he directly rejected it.

'This big brother really can't be judged by common sense...'

"Jiang Xianpai, the guests who visited the sages have left, you can go up now."

Just when Shi Yutong wanted to work harder, an attendant walked to the door of the lounge and said respectfully to Jiang Beiran.

"Okay, thank you."

After speaking, Jiang Beiran got up and walked outside.

When Jiang Beiran's back completely disappeared at the door, Shi Yutong picked up the jade stick in his hand and looked at it for a while, and couldn't help but sighed.

'I thought this would definitely make him tempted. '

Somewhat disappointed, Shi Yutong put away the jade sticks, and while thinking about whether to continue to go "by the way", or find a way to pass the test given by Brother Jiang, he also left the lounge.

Walking all the way to the eighth floor, Jiang Beiran found that the door of the sage's room was open, so he went straight up and cupped his hands and said, "Meet the sage."

Shi Weiyi, who was standing in front of a row of bookshelves, nodded and replied, "Come in."

"Yes." In response, Jiang Beiran walked into the room.

"Have you been waiting for a long time?" Shi Weiyi asked without looking back.

"Just arrived, didn't wait too long."

"Just took care of some trouble."

Shi Weiyi said as he turned around and slapped himself on the shoulder, saying: "My subordinates have too much to eat, and I can't always take a good rest."

Combined with what he said at the last family dinner, Jiang Bei could hear that Shi Weiyi was not satisfied with his junior's ability to handle affairs, and at the same time he kept hinting that he would help him in the past.

But Jiang Beiran refused in front of so many people last time, how could he be polite to him now.

"The sages take the lead in setting an example, and the younger generation admires it very much." After finishing speaking, Jiang Beiran took out the deed from the Qiankun ring and handed it over: "The younger generation is here to send the deed with Qian Tianzong, and Sect Master Yan has already stamped the mysterious seal gone."

Shi Weiyi nodded, as if he had expected it a long time ago, and took the contract, as if he was not surprised at all why Yan Guangqing was willing to sign such an "unfair treaty".

Stuffing the deed into the Qiankun Ring, Shi Weiyi looked at Jiang Beiran and asked, "Is there anything else?"

After hearing this, Jiang Beiran cupped his hands and said, "This junior does have one more thing he wants to ask senior for advice."

"Say it."

"I don't know if the sages have ever set foot in the ancient ruins?"

As a place not yet conquered by humans, it is extremely difficult to obtain information about the ancient ruins, so Jiang Bei thought that instead of trying his luck outside, he might as well ask the most knowledgeable sages of the Shi family.

Hearing the word Guxu, Shi Weiyi showed an obvious smile: "You are actually interested in such a dangerous place? It's really rare."

"I just feel that this place is quite magical, so I want to ask."

Of course, Shi Weiyi would not believe that Jiang Beiran was just purely curious, so he asked with a smile: "I will not hide it from you, and I can't reveal the secrets of the ancient ruins casually, unless...you can exchange it with equally valuable information .”

"This... juniors don't have such information to exchange."

"Hohohoho, why not?" Shi Weiyi laughed, and continued: "Why you are going to the ancient ruins is a good piece of information."

"The sages misunderstood, the junior really just asked casually."

If Shi Weiyi knew that there was an Anming Qiongqi full of treasures in a state of "isolation and helplessness", the Shi family's treasury would be able to add a lot of treasures.

Seeing that Jiang Bei didn't say anything, Shi Weiyi didn't continue to ask, just pretending nothing happened.

Without asking about the information of the ancient market, Jiang Beiran brought the topic back to the issue of trade. After chatting for about half a stick of incense, Jiang Beiran got up to say goodbye and left the Shengxian Mansion.

'Well, it's another matter settled. '

In the chat just now, Jiang Beiran had fulfilled all his duties as a "dentist", and the rest was for the two of them to communicate by themselves.

'Information about this ancient ruins...where should I go to look it up. '

After thinking for a while, Jiang Beiran took out a talisman and wrote a letter to Gu Qinghuan. In addition to asking him to investigate the clues of the ancient ruins, the letter also asked if there was any powerful beast master guild in Tan Kingdom.

What's the matter with Shi Fenglan's talent of being friendly to animals, I have to ask these professionals.

Folding the talisman paper into a kite and letting it fly, Jiang Beiran wrote a second letter.

This letter was sent to Lin Shiyun, and she has done both Liangyi Miyu and Huang Gu, and she should fulfill the promise to help her change her fate.

Secondly, Zhu Shangzhen is still waiting for his own news, and he is going to enter the Lin family to learn Qiankun art. It should not be a big problem for Lin Shiyun to introduce him.

After sending out both letters, Jiang Beiran returned to Feifu.

"what!"

As soon as he entered Feifu, Shi Fenglan jumped in front of him with a painting.

"Xiao Beiran, look, this is what I drew today."

After taking over the drawing paper and looking at it for a while, Jiang Beiran happened to be idle at the moment, so he brought Shi Fenglan to the courtyard to teach himself.

"Master."

Qu Yangze, who was sitting cross-legged in the yard, immediately stood up and saluted when he saw the master coming.

Nodding towards Qu Yangze, Jiang Beiran asked, "Will mushrooms grow by themselves these days?"

Just as Qu Yangze was about to answer, a red mushroom grew on his nose.

After skillfully picking off the mushrooms, Qu Yangze replied with some embarrassment: "Well, the president, and there are more and more of them."

"Do you feel unwell?"

"No." Qu Yangze shook his head, clenched his fists and said, "I feel endless energy every day."

Jiang Beiran felt a little strange after hearing this, and mobilized his mental energy to inspect Qu Yangze, and suddenly found that the king Gus were different from before.

In the past, besides eating, the King Gu just slept, but now they not only stay awake, but even work harder to absorb the energy in Qu Yangze's body.

'It's true that the sun is coming out from the west, and these dead houses have started playing with equipment? '

Naturally, Jiang Bei was not worried about the fact that the King Gu were absorbing Quyangze's energy. After all, Quyangze was originally a body that raised Gu, and it was powerful because his body could produce a large amount of special energy that Gu insects needed.

It's just that Wang Gu used to eat three meals a day and then go to sleep, but now he's uncharacteristically absorbing it with extra effort, as if he needs to work hard to become stronger.

'It's not right, it's not right. '

Generally speaking, the way Gu worms grow is very natural, just like people naturally grow taller, Gu worms will naturally become stronger, and the speed of becoming stronger is much faster than that of human cultivators.

But now they are obviously dissatisfied with their growth rate, so they all started to work hard.

'Is this the blow to self-esteem after being defeated by Lao Wang last time? Or do you want to show it to the goddess? '

Intuition told Jiang Beiran that the phenomenon of mushrooms growing on Qu Yangze's body must be related to the changes of these Gu insects.

But in Jiang Beiran's understanding, Qu Yangze's uncontrollable growth of mushrooms is due to "overnutrition", but now these Gu insects are obviously working harder to absorb energy, it stands to reason that Qu Yangze doesn't feel weak, why not? Is it getting more and more vigorous

'Symbiosis? '

After searching his knowledge base about Gu worms, Jiang Beiran came to a conclusion.

That is, after the Gu worm absorbs excess energy, the more energy it can feed back to Qu Yangze becomes.

That is to say, the harder the Gu worms work, the stronger the host, Qu Yangze, will become, an absolute win-win situation.

After thinking about this possibility, Jiang Beiran said to Qu Yangze: "Starting from today, I will fight with you for two hours, and you attack me with all your strength."

"what!?"

Qu Yangze was taken aback after hearing this, but quickly stood upright and saluted, "Yes!"

The reason why Jiang Beiran did this was to prove his guess. Since growing mushrooms is a manifestation of excess nutrition, it would be good for Qu Yangze to vent all the excess "nutrition" every day.

If cultivation alone is not enough, then let him have a hearty battle and mobilize every cell in his body to vent.

"We'll start after I finish painting. You can prepare first."

"Yes!"

After dozens of battles with Wu Qingce, Qu Yangze's understanding of his body is much better than before, but because he can't exert his full strength every time, Qu Yangze feels that he should still have potential to tap.

As for the master's words... Qu Yangze no longer has to think about keeping his hand.
