Chapter 5 The Master is Drunk

Lin Zhifan was stunned, unable to move. Recently, he was most afraid that Cui Shiming would ask him questions. Even if he tried very hard to recite after class, his mind would still go blank at the critical moment. It seemed that after that incident, Lin Zhifan realized that he seemed to be possessed by something evil. He couldn't answer the questions, was too nervous to speak, and felt unwell. The memory of that time was still fresh, and it was also a stain on Cui Shiming's life. Cui Shiming was happy to have a gathering with old friends. He drank too much at night. At dawn, he was still dizzy and shaking his head, but he still had some consciousness in his mind and insisted on teaching. Cui Shiming tried to pick up the book with a trace of thought and said, "Silence, silence, I will teach you and answer your doubts." His voice was low and his pronunciation was unclear. He had lost his usual severity and his aggressiveness was reduced to zero. After saying this, he lowered his head and began to sob again. Seeing Cui Shiming so staggering in the private school was like a mouse seeing a drunken cat. Although they did not dare to touch him blatantly for the first time, all the actions that they should not normally do were uncontrollable like a thousand arrows.

Lu Zhan seemed to be in high spirits, and said, "Is Cui Shiming drunk today? Let's have some fun." After saying that, he took off his shoes and stretched them on the table. The smell of his feet drifted to the neighbor. The neighbor was a hesitant and thin guy. He kept his word and covered his nose and said, "Brother Lu, how long have you not washed your feet? It's really unacceptable to smell them like this. People can't think straight after smelling them, and their heads are about to explode. I guess the flowers and plants in spring will wither and die if they are touched by them."

When Lu Zhan heard this, he immediately became furious, "My feet are soaked and cleaned every day, and the basin is overflowing with flowers. How can you smell the stink of my feet?" If you get closer and smell it, the smell is still overwhelming. "Brother Lu, could it be that you can't smell it yourself? I am not as sensitive as others and can easily smell the stink of my feet." Lu Zhan retorted anxiously, "If I say no, there won't be." He stretched out his feet again. When he reached the surrounding area, the people around him immediately covered their sleeves and noses and hid far away. Jiang Yuan chuckled, this guy must be lacking in strength, and this move is just to cover up. Lin Zhihui didn't take advantage of the chaos, but he couldn't bear the irritation of his fellow disciples by the smell, so he said, "Brother Lu's foot odor can't be covered by the fragrance of flowers in the shower, so there may be something wrong with his body. Maybe ask a doctor to diagnose it." Very good, but please put on your shoes first, Brother Lu, and don’t let your classmate look hopeless again. "It’s okay not to say it. Saying this sentence brought an indelible memory of youthful stupidity to Lin Zhihui.

Lu Zhan picked up on Lin Zhihui's kind explanation and heard a different charm. He stood up and shouted, "Lin Zhihui, you are the only one who is sick. I know best whether my feet stink or not. You don't need to worry about it." "The well-intentioned persuasion was rejected, and such a stubborn naughty boy could have a fight with the old-fashioned. Lin Zhihui stood up and wanted to persuade him for the second time, but Lu Zhan sat down obediently and quickly put on his shoes. He looked back and saw that Cui Shiming had opened his eyes and looked at him at some point. I woke up because of Lu Zhan's stinky feet or because the quarrel in the private school was too loud. Just as he was about to sit down, Cui Shiming stopped him, "Lin Zhihui, please answer the question and then sit down."

Lin Zhihui was confused. When did Cui Shiming ask the question? Was he already awake or half-awake? Who was he trying to scare by pretending like this? Then he asked tentatively, "Master, you are drunk and unbecoming today. You fell asleep in class. Are you awake now?" Cui Shiming's eyes were half-shrouded, and there seemed to be threads of light in his eyes. He was sitting upright, his majesty was not diminished from usual, "I ask you And answer, if you can't answer, you will be severely punished."

"When Li Bai was young, he met a woman who painstakingly ground an iron pestle to make a needle..."

"as long as you try very hard, you can achieve anything."! Lin Zhihui waited until Cui Shiming had finished speaking, so he rushed to tell the answer.

"I haven't asked the question yet, so don't answer it. What should the woman do if she accidentally drops the polished needle into the sea?" Cui Shiming looked at him and rubbed his beard in a daze. Lin Zhihui looked at him. Not fully awake yet.

"Naturally, education is the most important thing. Only by sharpening the needle can we make progress in cycles and not give up halfway."

"Wrong! The answer is to buy a needle. You need to think to be able to figure it out. Learning to be flexible is sometimes much better than sticking to the rigid old path."

. . . . . . Lin Zhihui twisted his arm, suspecting that his ears had heard wrongly, and that he would still be able to say flexible words from his old-fashioned mouth in his lifetime. It really makes people think twice and sigh.

"Hahahaha..." The ridiculous laughter could not be concealed in the private school. Sometimes Cui Shiming was not so old-fashioned. It was the first time that Lin Zhihui was laughed at by his classmates. His hands and feet were a bit unconscious and he couldn't move and move freely, and he felt anxious.

"The second question is, there are three major sects in Xuan Kingdom today..."

Lin Zhihui thought briefly and replied, "Qing Emperor Hengtian Sect, Feng Tang Jiuyu Sect, Nanjing Suntian Sect." Cui Shiming nodded, "I'm not asking you this."

. . . .

The laughter in the private school was like thunder and lightning, rushing into Lin Zhihui's eyes and hitting Lin Zhihui's ears. His feet were unsteady and he almost fell. How could this old-fashioned person be so cunning!

"Today, mountain bandits are doing a lot of evil and causing harm to everyone. The Shuntian faction responds to all factions working together to attack the mountain bandits. The Shuntian faction..."

Lin Zhihui had learned the lessons from the previous two times and would not answer hastily this time, so he asked, "Master, what is the question?"

"Can you guess why the Shuntian faction united all forces to attack the bandits?"

"The bandit dens are spread all over the country. Now they are out of the stronghold and causing harm to the people. Naturally, all the factions must work together to cut off the gold. The Shuntian faction responds to each faction to eliminate the harm to the people. It is a just act and it can also demonstrate its virtue and make it clear. spread his name to the world."

"Shi Qunping of the Shuntian sect has a high level of cultivation, profound magic, and superb medical skills. He is one of the admirers of many cultivators. The Jiuyu sect lives in the south of the Yangtze River. It is a blessed land with caves and heavens. It has many essences of heaven and earth and is easy to absorb and summarize. It is The best place for cultivation. Why are there so few people?"

Lin Zhihui had heard that the Shuntian sect had the smallest family status among the three sects, but he had heard that no one had told him. The Shun Tian sect had favorable geographical location and people to harmonize with them, but it could be that they lacked the right time. Heavenly timing is the most important of the three elements, ranking first, and one is indispensable, so it is said, "There is a saying that "people plan things, and accomplish things depend on heaven." The Suntian sect lacks heavenly timing. When the time comes, Shuntian will The right time, right place, and right people will make things happen. Just like a bird waiting to arrive, it will be gone if it doesn't fly. It will be gone if it doesn't sing."

Cui Shiming's eyes widened, as if he was angry, "Don't speculate on the weather. Besides, spying on the heaven's secrets is a forbidden skill, so you should be punished."

Lin Zhihui stayed in the library and copied Cui Shiming's precepts of the Qing Emperor five hundred times. He wondered when and how he had spied on Tianji. This was just an answer based on his own thinking. If Tianji could really be so good Spying, hehehe, let’s see when Cui Shiming goes to see Tathagata from now on.

Late at night, Cui Shiming had a message and he was not allowed to leave until he finished copying it. The gentle breeze blew the hair on his face, and Lin Zhihui took a nap and was about to lie down on the table to sleep. Suddenly, the breeze blew a desolate black wind through the half-closed curtains and hit his body with a poking force. Lin Zhihui shivered and lost all sleep. The swaying candle flame swayed in the wind, and with the cry of a baby, the candle flame went out. The baby's cries approached slowly, and the baby's two brown eyes were glaring in the dark library. Lin Zhihui was originally timid, and his remaining heroic heart had long since faded away. Fear accompanied his will and he slowly retreated to the door. The baby seemed to be a vengeful ghost, pressing forward step by step, following step by step. There were still a few steps away from the door. Just when Lin Zhihui was about to rush out, he heard the sound of fine sand rubbing the ground at the door. This move of attacking from the front and back was really perfect. Lin Zhihui's heart skipped a beat. On the throat, what else can be done, just wait for death. Maybe Cui Shiming will feel guilty when he sees his body lying on the ground tomorrow. As long as he can arouse his kindness and not punish others in the future, it can be regarded as a contribution to the Qing Emperor's fellow sect. Lin Zhihui was heartbroken, closed his eyes, and prepared to die heroically, when the door creaked.

Jiang Yuan held the lantern and waved it in front of his eyes several times, "Xiao Hui, are you falling asleep standing here?" Lin Zhihui opened his eyes and his heart revived again when he heard the old friend's voice. Looking straight at him, he woke up and hugged Jiang Yuan, and then slowly burst into tears. After finding out the origin, I realized that it was a cat that accidentally broke into the library.

Jiang Yuan explained the behavior of Cui Shiming and Lu Zhan today again, "Lu Zhan likes to wear rat leather shoes. Although rat fur is soft and warm, it contains rat poison. If you do this every day, your feet will become infected with rat poison. It smells terrible, and The itching was unbearable, so he took advantage of Cui Shiming's drunkenness to act recklessly. Cui Shiming was actually drunk, but he still had his will. Teaching was his obsession. Cui Shiming was about to win, so he immediately sat down politely. Cui Shiming opened his eyes and saw you in the classroom. He stood up from his seat, as if he wanted to make a fuss. He would definitely kill you, and he would be humiliated today. ". As for you spying on the secrets of heaven today, there is a point. It is one of the precepts not to speak nonsense or to jump to conclusions. Although what you said is harmless and makes some sense, it is a violation of the precepts and you will naturally be punished. ."Lin Zhihui also saw that Jiang Yuan was standing and talking without pain in his back. After this incident, Lin Zhihui was in awe of the library and was afraid of cats, especially looking at cats. His two round eyes were like Cheng Liang's lanterns, giving people a special memory in the darkness. After Cui Shiming completely sobered up, he did not continue to pursue the case. However, every time Lin Zhihui answered a question, he would think of the dark and windy night, the two lanterns gradually approaching, the fear that his heart could not bear and the body that was unable to control.

The blazing fire engulfed Lin Zhihui's entire body, tearing and burning every part of Lin Zhihui's body as if he was buried in a sea of fire. When he was about to disappear into ashes, he felt like he was living in a world of cold winter ice and snow, with nothing hanging on his body. , there was only the flying snow in the sky and the biting wind. After it was about to be eroded, he suddenly changed his mind to the sea of fire. Lin Zhihui showed his usual headache. To others, it seemed that he was too nervous to speak, but It's just too funny. Suddenly the sea of fire was surrounded by icebergs. Fire and ice fought fiercely. The two went up and down, consuming each other. The sea of fire slowly turned into flames, then slowly turned into flames and finally extinguished. The iceberg slowly turned into ice cubes and then slowly turned into ice. The hail then turns into water and disappears. The headache subsided, and Lin Zhihui opened his eyes and saw Jiang Yuan holding his hand.
