"Where's my horse?"

In front of the herb shop, Su Yun looked confused. He saw that the Longxiang he had tied here was missing. In addition to Longxiang, the lamppost for tying the horse was also missing.

The lamp post was uprooted by a huge force, and the stone pillars under the ground were pulled out.

At this time, someone came forward and said, "Scholar Su, your horse took the lamppost away. Considering that this is your first offense, you can just pay for the lamppost."

Su Yun's face darkened as he touched his sleeve pocket. He was short of money and gave all his money to Qiu Shuijing. Fortunately, Chi Xiaoyao saw his predicament and quickly paid for the lamp post.

Long Xiong returned to Tianshiyuan with the lamppost. Su Yun was unable to take his senior for a ride, so he had to walk back to Shuofang Academy with Chi Xiaoyao.

On the way, Chi Xiaoyao lectured him in a soft voice. Su Yun flipped through books from time to time with his mind, comparing them with each other, and learned very quickly. When he encountered something he didn't understand, Chi Xiaoyao explained it briefly, and Su Yun understood it clearly.

The two of them walked to Wenchang Academy unknowingly, and continued to discuss as they walked. Suddenly, a chariot carrying a mountain stopped in front of them. Zuo Songyan pushed open the window, stuck his head out, and said with a chuckle, "Scholar Su, Scholar Chi, get in the car, I'll give you a ride!"

Su Yun and Chi Xiaoyao hurriedly got in the car, and Zuo Songyan said with a smile: "Mr. Chi, go downstairs first. I have something to say to Mr. Su."

Chi Xiaoyao felt very aggrieved and had to go downstairs and sit alone.

Su Yun sat opposite Zuo Songyan, who smiled and said, "I heard that the envoy and the saint went together to the old no-man's land to investigate a case. I wonder how many heavenly generals or demon gods died in the old no-man's land during this trip?"

He was quite happy in his heart, thinking: "In the past, when this envoy made trouble, I was the one who took care of it. It was almost impossible for the old boss to handle it, so he had to ask the bosses of 17 states and 108 counties to help him. It was really embarrassing. But this time, it's finally the turn of the saint to take care of it!"

He really wanted to see how Xue Qingfu, the saint of Shuofang, would be humiliated.

Su Yun said carefully, "This time when we went to investigate the case in the old no-man's land, none of the heavenly generals and demon gods in the old no-man's land died."

Zuo Songyan was stunned for a moment, and asked tentatively: "Is it the God King who died, or the Demon King who died?"

"They are not dead either. The God King was seriously injured."

Su Yun hesitated for a moment and said, "Saint Xue almost died."

“Boom!”

There was a violent shock of blood and qi coming from the small building. It turned out that Zuo Songyan's blood and qi were unstable, and the blood and qi in his body fluctuated.

Su Yun was also shaken to the point that his blood was surging like a surging wave. He hurriedly calmed his blood and saw that the table was covered with extremely fine cracks. He then looked at the window, which was also covered with dense cracks.

"Zuo Pushe's cultivation is really profound!" Su Yun praised inwardly.

Zuo Songyan took a long breath, finally suppressed his trembling heart, and asked: "Saint Shuofang accompanied you to investigate the case, and almost died? Even the saint couldn't help it?"

Su Yun said carefully, "The Saint was seriously injured and nearly lost his life. I sent him to Doctor Dong for treatment. Doctor Dong said that he needs a few more days of observation and treatment before he can fully recover. He should have about 10% to 20% of his cultivation left now."

Zuo Songyan shuddered, his face changing from gloomy to bright. "Even the saint was almost killed. Master Su is really powerful. What case are you investigating?"

Su Yun told the truth: "The old immortal of the Tong family has arrived, and teamed up with the God King of the Old No Man's Land to plot against me and Saint Xue. I tried my best to save him, and asked some friends to help, and that's how I escaped."

"You rescued Saint Xue and asked your friends to help?"

Zuo Songyan was puzzled and asked tentatively: "Does the envoy have friends in the no-man's land?"

Su Yun hesitated again, nodded, and honestly admitted: "Puye, to be honest, I also have a little influence in Tianshiyuan..."

Zuo Songyan stroked his beard and looked at him deeply: "My Lord, you are unfathomable, do you know that?"

Su Yun was stunned: "Why did you say that?"

Zuo Songyan sneered, "Shuofang Saint Xue Qingfu is the best fighter in Shuofang. If you look at the whole country of Shuofang, his combat power can be ranked in the top ten! He went with you to investigate a case, and he almost died. Now he is seriously injured, but you are fine. You are only in the Soul Condensation Realm, but he is in the Saint Conquest Realm, and maybe even the Original Dao Realm! If you are not unfathomable, who else can deserve this praise?"

Su Yun felt very aggrieved and said in defense: "It's my friend who is so good..."

Zuo Songyan said solemnly, "Now that the old immortal Tong is here, things are much more dangerous. The old immortal of the Tong family is like an evergreen tree in the court of Dongdu, with deep roots and long-lasting prosperity. This old man has experienced three emperors in the court, Emperor Yuan, Emperor Ai, and Emperor Ping, and has always stood firm. The Wenchang Academy was built by him, and many dignitaries were born in the Wenchang Academy. When they see him, they have to call him teacher."

Su Yun raised his eyebrows and asked, "What is the old immortal's purpose?"

Zuo Songyan sneered, "After being a god for too long, he wants to change his taste and become an emperor. His influence in the court and the country is flourishing. Perhaps, he is the leader. The seven great families also want to take this opportunity to take a step further and become royal relatives!"

Su Yun lowered his eyes and asked softly, "So, what does the saint want to do?"

Zuo Songyan looked at him deeply and said, "He wants to become a saint, a real saint. It is not possible for ordinary people to canonize him as a saint. He must be canonized by the emperor himself. Since he has this wish, we can join hands with him to deal with the current situation in Shuofang. My lord, the old immortal has appeared. I want to see Shui Jing in person. Be prepared!"

Su Yun stood up, said goodbye and went downstairs.

Chi Xiaoyao quickly got off the carriage with him and whispered, "This small building is broken."

Before she finished her words, there was a sudden loud bang, and the small building on the back of the mountain-carrying beast was shattered into pieces, with sawdust and smoke filling the air. When the smoke and dust settled, Su Yun saw Zuo Songyan still sitting there, with the wooden chair under his butt still there.

However, a gust of wind blew, and the chair under Zuo Songyan's butt turned into sawdust and was blown away by the wind.

Chi Xiaoyao whispered, "Zuo Pushe seems to be frightened by something. Weird, what could scare Zuo Pushe like this?"

Su Yun did not answer, and walked forward with the girl, with the mountains and rivers in sight. Su Yun suddenly asked, "Xiaoyao, do you think I am unfathomable?"

Chi Xiaoyao chuckled and said, "You? You are the most innocent one in your family, how can you be so cunning? Even Qingqiu Yue, that little girl, is more cunning than you!"

Su Yun sighed and thought silently, "Why do people like Zuo Pushe imagine me to be so sinister and cunning?"

In the following days, Su Yun finally settled down. Zuo Songyan no longer forced him to investigate the case, so he was able to concentrate on his studies. Chi Xiaoyao stayed at Shanshui Residence these days and gave him extra lessons at night. Su Yun finally caught up with Qingqiu Yue and the others.

On New Year's Eve, Chi Xiaoyao finally finished teaching the fourteen subjects, including Confucianism, Taoism and Buddhism. However, these three subjects belonged to the unique knowledge of the old sages. In terms of knowledge, even the youngest Qingqiu Yue was knowledgeable enough to be Chi Xiaoyao's teacher.

Therefore, it was Su Yun who acted as a teacher and taught her these three courses.

Other subjects, such as astronomy and geography, are relatively simple and only require memorization, which is very easy. The most difficult subject is numerology, which originally came from counting with knotted ropes. Later, Taoism developed it and later the knowledge of the Semites surpassed Yuan Shuo. The numerology of the Wenchang Academy has the shadow of the Semites' knowledge.

The numerology of the Semu people was too complicated, so the Wenchang Academy simplified it and replaced the numerology vocabulary of the Semu people with runes, making it easier to learn and understand.

In just a few days, Su Yun and a few little fox spirits have basically mastered what scholars would take years to master.

However, the amount of money spent is a sum that other scholars would take several years to spend!

It is not expensive to invite Chi Xiaoyao to be a private tutor, but twenty Sky Eyes per person is equivalent to spending ten Qinghong coins in just ten days!

You should know that some spiritualists may not be able to earn a Qinghong Coin in half a year.

After the New Year's Eve dinner, Su Yun and Chi Xiaoyao strolled in the academy, and saw some boys and girls who stayed in the academy walking together and enjoying the fireworks.

—That was the magnificent scene created by the spiritualists using their magical powers in the air. One after another, the magical powers exploded in the sky, colorful and illuminating the night sky.

Su Yun and Chi Xiaoyao stopped to look around, only to see the gorgeous night sky. Chi Xiaoyao whispered, "Before the New Year, various events occurred frequently, natural disasters and man-made disasters continued, and man-made disasters were even worse, making the people of Shuofang panic. Today, there is finally some New Year atmosphere."

The two walked slowly in the academy, and saw fireworks rising in the academy. In other places in Shuofang City, the magical powers of spiritualists continued to rise, exploding in the sky, illuminating the night and dispelling the darkness.

There are all kinds of gorgeous patterns in the sky, and there are gorgeous articles spread in the air. Every word shines with light, and suddenly turns into bright mountains and waters, and the streets in the sky, where Confucian saints walk.

Buddhas also appeared, temples were built, and Buddhas of all sizes floated in the air;

There were also Taoist immortals riding on cranes, and caves of all sizes emerged from the sky;

There were also music sounds coming from the air, bamboo flute, dongxiao, konghou, guqin, guzheng, drum, horn and other instruments played moving melodies in the air;

Some people used their magical powers to build structures in the sky, including long bridges across the waves, palaces, and water conservancy projects.

There are also ships and pleasure boats sailing in the long river of magical powers in the sky; exotic flowers bloom and emit fragrance in the air; there are long dragons swimming, wandering among the dazzling magical powers; there are phoenixes soaring, flapping their wings above the mountains and forests.

There are also big fish that only exist in the sea, swimming in the sky, and mythical beasts that only exist in mythology, walking in the air.

The immortals who only exist in paintings, the auspicious signs in legends, and the founders of various major schools of thought seemed to come alive in the form of magical powers and appear on the New Year's Eve of the north.

Su Yun suddenly heard Qingqiu Yue's cry, he looked in the direction of the sound, he saw that Qingqiu Yue, Li Xiaofan and Hu Buping did not stay in Shanshuiju, but took advantage of the New Year's Eve to run out to play, several little fox demons jumped and screamed in amazement.

Su Yun's heart moved slightly, and a large yellow bell with spiritual power appeared above his head. With a ding sound, dragons swam out of the yellow bell, running and rushing to the little fox demons who were watching the fireworks and magical powers.

The dragon raised its head and pushed them onto its back. The dragons leaped up and down like flying, carrying them higher and higher.

Qingqiu Yue, Li Xiaofan and Hu Buping grabbed the dragon horns, screamed in surprise, and suddenly started to giggle. They saw that they were already in the air, with magical powers blooming everywhere around them.

Hu Buping bravely stood up, suddenly leaped out, stood on the back of a passing Pixiu, and waved excitedly to Qingqiu Yue and Li Xiaofan.

Qingqiu Yue and Li Xiaofan also jumped off the dragon's back, stepped on a series of flying words, ran in the air, and broke into a long bridge.

The long bridge was emitting light. The two little foxes leaned over and looked under the bridge, only to see a lighted pleasure boat passing under the bridge.

The two little fox demons had just jumped off the bridge, and before they landed on the pleasure boat, they saw a Pixiu flying over. The fox on the back of the Pixiu grabbed the two of them and ran along the river towards the distant city.

There, there are more magical powers, forming another celestial city in the sky.

Su Yun said angrily: "These little guys are really worrying!"

Suddenly, Chi Xiaoyao grabbed his hand, pulled him forward and said with a smile: "Junior brother, let's go on the New Year's Eve parade too!"

Su Yun was stunned, and saw the dress of the senior schoolmate in front of him fluttering, swaying on his face. Chi Xiaoyao turned around, and it was as if the cold winter of that year had passed. The smile on the girl's face gradually became charming like spring sunshine, and his mood also brightened a little.

Su Yun followed her and ran forward. Chi Xiaoyao jumped lightly, stepping on the arrows and rising higher and higher. The yellow bell above Su Yun's head slowly rotated, and from time to time a Bifang flew out to cushion their steps.

They rose into the air and walked on the streets of heaven formed by magical powers. They went to see the phantoms of the giant Buddhas, to meet the ancient saints, and to pay homage to the gods.

Young boys and girls stand on the back of a huge Kun and cruise in the air, with the surging river behind them flowing between the mountains and rivers. Or they stand on the bow of a pleasure boat, pointing at the scenery on the shore, with lanterns hanging high behind them.

They walked among the flying musical instruments, listening to the beautiful and moving melodies, with phoenixes flying around and mandarin ducks flying around them.

I saw more and more people walking in the sky. Many young spiritual beings were also wandering in the sky together, and laughter and joy could be heard from the sky.

The New Year’s Eve in Shuofang is indescribably lively.

They played until the second half of the night, until the magical powers in the sky gradually faded away. Then they walked down from the sky along a gorgeous pattern and came to the cloud bridge.

The two walked on the Cloud Bridge and saw some pedestrians lingering on. Some young men and women were sitting on the long bridge, leaning against each other, waiting to watch the New Year's sunrise.

That night, Su Yun witnessed countless wonderful magical powers and the prosperity of the city.

Zhaizhu: There are more than 50,000 cases of the new coronavirus pneumonia nationwide, with 48,000 in Hubei. Zhaizhu is also very worried about this. At the end of January, he donated 10,000 yuan to the Wuhan Charity Federation in his personal name.

Didn't Zhu do a few live broadcasts? Book friends gave him 1,600 yuan in tips during the live broadcasts. I was ashamed. I did live broadcasts just because I thought it was the most direct way to communicate with readers, but I didn't expect there would be tips. Zhu regarded this money as charity and donated it to the Wuhan Charity Federation in the name of Linyuanxing book friends.

In the Wuhan Charity Federation’s official account, under the heading “New Coronavirus Prevention and Control,” search for “Linyuanxing” in the income and expenditure details, and you can see this money.

Of course, you can also take the opportunity to follow Zhaizhu’s official account~~
