There are gaps in the road

Chapter 7 White Mask

"Run away! If you catch another stick, you will get three sticks. Come in now, until one stick is discounted."

The so-called elder brother is like a father, father's love is like a mountain, and a filial son is born under the stick. This is how the boss of the Ye family originally educated his younger brother.

My brother is disobedient, just discount a few sticks.

A bad tongue is worse than a bad stick.

At this moment, the second child of the Ye family popped out of the wall again, but saw a red line protruding from Ye Chuxiao's neck with sharp eyes.

"Brother! Why do you have red marks on your neck? Could it be that you went to Pingliangfang!" Ye Laoer said.

Pingliangfang is the most expensive place in Shenjing City, and it is also the only place in Shenjing City that does not have a curfew even on the surface.

Ye Chuxiao pulled the collar to cover up the exposed red mark, and then coughed dryly, but she was no longer as strict as before: "Don't let me roll in through the main entrance."

When he finished speaking, the little sister Ye Chuyu had already opened the door.

Houjing's second child, Ye Chuqi, came in with two lotus leaf bags, handed the lotus leaf bags to Ye Chuyu, covered his mouth with his hand, and yawned big.

"There are hundreds of monks, which one do you plan to major in?" Ye Chuxiao asked Ye Chuqi.

"Let's be a spiritual chef! As long as you get started smoothly, someone will sign a contract to train you in the early stage, and there will be no shortage of resources. After you pass the stupidity, you can also specialize in spiritual wine brewing." Ye Chuqi said as usual.

Ye Chuxiao nodded when she heard the words, but didn't say anything more.

Although the Ye family has some family background, it is not very rich. If all three brothers and sisters have to practice, the burden is not small, and the choice of major is especially important.

Younger sister Ye Chuyu also has a similar plan. She intends to become an embroidery lady after she completes her studies. That is also a self-reliant practice direction. However, besides focusing on flying needles, embroidery lady also has extremely high requirements for breath. If the little girl wants to get started, she needs to exercise more.

Practice is a road with no end in sight.

Basically, only those monks from wealthy families can run along the road without any distractions. Most monks need to have a bias when practicing.

This is also the origin of the monks' hundred schools. After many years of development, each of these hundred skills has its own system and has its own strengths.

When you reach a high place, you can be said to be a hero for a while, but in fact, there is no distinction between good and bad.

After chatting for a while, Ye Chuqi went back to the room to catch up on sleep, and Ye Chuxiao went out after explaining a few words to his little sister, took a rented carriage, and went straight to the 'First Floor of Heaven' located in Chongshengfang.

Tianyilou is the largest private library in Shenjing City.

The classics related to real practice, techniques, martial arts, etc. in Tianyilou need to spend a lot of money to borrow.

But some common sense of practice, gossip, anecdotes, miscellaneous news, historical classics, past allusions, etc. in the practice world, you only need to pay an entry fee of one tael of silver, and you can watch them until the closed door drum rings that day.

Ye Chuxiao is anxious to understand the world, and reading is the most convenient way for him to understand.

Ye Chuxiao was dizzy after reading books in Tianyilou for a whole day.

Random reading without planning is indeed not a wise choice.

No way, even in books of the same type, there are too many mysteries and contradictions in them.

"I need a teacher. I don't expect him to be very clever, but at least he can point me in a direction instead of letting me be such a blind cat and kill a mouse." Ye Chuxiao put down the book in his hand and let out a breath of depression.

Traveling through the sea of ​​books, Ye Chuxiao not only wants to understand the world he traveled through more accurately, but also has the intention of finding the origin of the 'Dao Yun' from the books.

After all, the golden clock is a must-have golden finger for travelers, so there is no need to study it carefully for the time being.

But the Dao Yun that can give people special talents and enhance their aptitude is obviously a 'phenomenon' that exists in this world, which may not be common, but must have occurred repeatedly.

Ye Chuxiao wanted to find out its origin, and at the same time figure out the connection between Dao Yun and the golden clock.

"The content you are looking for is not here, and there will be no content you want to read in this kind of library that is open to the public." A white cat jumped onto the table, and then squatted in front of Ye Chuxiao, He licked his paw and said.

Ye Chuxiao looked around, and the people around didn't seem to notice anything wrong.

"It's just a small illusion trick, it can't be fooled by a smart person." White Cat said.

Ye Chuxiao looked at the white cat with a solemn expression: "The art of transforming into an illusion? Are you a member of the original teaching?"

The white cat squinted its eyes, then turned around and jumped to the ground.

In a blink of an eye, he turned into a masked man covered in a white robe, unable to see his figure, and even unable to distinguish between men and women.

The mask he was wearing was also mostly pure white, only the two corners of the eyes near the bridge of the nose were stained with bloody tears.

"Transfiguration and illusion? It's almost the same, I really come from the original religion."

"I came to see you just out of curiosity... who is it that can break free after being bewitched? It even snatched away the ray calculated by my original teaching and fell into the dungeon of the Ministry of Punishment." Dao Yun." The man in white robe and white mask seemed to be staring at Ye Chuxiao.

"That's all! I'll tie you up first, and we'll interrogate you later." The man in the white robe and mask said.

Ye Chuxiao suddenly stretched out his hand and tore open the skirt of his clothes.

Under the skirt, the lines drawn with cinnabar are complex and stretched, as if spreading to the whole body.

The talisman line on this body was drawn by Ye Chuxiao after he left the prison of the Ministry of Justice, and spent 70 taels of money to hire a talisman in a difficult situation in Dongshi City to draw it on his body.

"Is this... the Great Fire Charm?"

"You don't think that this can threaten me!"

"Drawing such a spell close to your body can at most make you choose to self-destruct in a split second."

"Of course, based on the fate I was about to bring to you, I have to say...you have made a wise prediction." The man in the white robe and white mask looked at the spell lines on Ye Chuxiao's body, and said Although he said he didn't care, in fact he still kept a certain distance from Ye Chuxiao.

Ye Chuxiao said: "This is the first floor of the sky. There are monks guarding the building in the building. There are also Jinhuang, Xuanzhi, and Qianjiao three guards stationed nearby. Although the power of the Xionghuo spell is generally strong, the flame effect when it explodes , but it is extraordinary, it will definitely attract everyone around you, and your illusion can't hide it."

"I draw the spell on my body. Whether it triggers or not is all in my mind. No matter how fast you use to control me, you can't block my thoughts in an instant."

"So... are you sure you want to exchange one with me?"

The man in the white robe and white mask seemed to be stunned when he heard this.

Then he laughed: "What a jailer Ye Chuxiao, I admit that I was bluffed by you, although I am sure that even if I try to capture you now, you will not detonate the spell, but you are also right, a mere Ye Chu Xiao, it's not worth my risk."

"As a reward for winning me, I can answer a few questions for you."

"As for how much to answer you, it depends on my mood. You need to weigh whether the answer is right or wrong. You have to be careful, don't be fooled by me."
