"But... the process will definitely not go smoothly. The woman is probably going crazy."
Ye Xuan looked out the window, and the image of a beautiful and arrogant girl in a white dress with blue hair, a sneer on her lips, a ferocious look, and a gloomy face appeared in his mind. He couldn't help but have a headache: "Oh, I won't be able to help her complete a few more tasks at the Order Academy." index."
"Or you can just squat down and hold your head and let her give her a beating. Anyway, it won't hurt or itch, and the arrogant woman's little hands are quite comfortable..."
Chapter 115 Contract
"Actually, I came here today to discuss something with you, Ye Xuan."
"Oh?" Ye Xuan put down his chopsticks and looked at Ning Guang, with no surprise on his face.
"I just said that Tangtang [Tianquan] would not be bored and come here to reminisce about old times with a little guy like me."
"But it doesn't matter, Lord Ningguang."
"Ye Xuan, you are no small person."
Ning Guang sat up straight, her sister-next-door temperament disappeared, replaced by the majesty and wisdom of [Tianquan]: "I hope you can join the officialdom of Liyue, which is the Seven Stars and Eight Sects."
"With your strength, we and Qixing will give you a decent position and quite generous remuneration from the beginning."
"And..." Ning Guang glanced at Yun Jin slightly: "Having this level of official status will be of great help to the Ye family and your mother's... main family."
Yun Jin on the side suddenly raised her head.
so generous?
Ye Xuan's eyes widened slightly. Seven Stars and Eight Doors... He was a civil servant in Liyue. It was indeed the land of Teyvat where strength was paramount. Such a precious thing was given away at the drop of a hat.
Thinking of the tens of thousands of people crossing a single-plank bridge in his previous life, Ye Xuan couldn't help but laugh.
"Ye Xuan once again thanks Lord Ningguang for his kindness, but... I refuse."
"Oh? Are the conditions not enough?" Ningguang's expression did not change at all. It seemed that Ye Xuan's answer was already expected by her. She lowered her head to think for a moment and then looked up at Ye Xuan. Her red lips were slightly raised. The man standing on the glass The woman at the peak of Yue's power started talking about a lot of benefits again: "Joining Liyue Official will do you more good than harm."
"You don't have to worry about your studies. The Grass God has been missing for a hundred years. I can directly contact the great sage of Xumi and ask him to directly grant you the highest diploma of the Order Academy."
"And with your family background and abilities, your path to advancement will definitely be smooth, and you may not be able to become one of Liyue's Seven Stars in the future."
"That means you still have to work. This is the legendary pie painting..." Ye Xuan raised his head and yawned, muttering in a low voice.
"Also..." Ningguang ignored Ye Xuan's complaints, but turned to look at Yun Jin beside him, and said with a smile: "In the traditional concept of Liyue, the number of the seven stars and eight sects of Liyue is the choice of many mothers-in-law. My son-in-law’s first choice.”
"How about Ye Xuan, this is the best opportunity to change the impression of your sweetheart's parents and win the beauty back."
beauty?Ye Xuan suddenly raised his head. After hearing this, he was no longer sleepy and asked the question that was most concerned about him: "Can Liyue have multiple wives? I don't think I have heard of it. Do official people have privileges... "
What a mess.
Ning Guang's face darkened, Yun Jin's little hand under the table stretched out again, and fiercely grabbed the flesh of Ye Xuan's waist. The white jade fingers shone with the light of the rock element. It seemed that he was angry, and he actually used it this time. The power of God's Eye.
"No, don't even think about it." Ning Guang said angrily. Fortunately, this guy looked drowsy just now, but he immediately became energetic when he heard this topic. Could it be that with so many benefits in this guy's eyes, he might as well start a harem? Really?
For some reason, his mind recalled what he had experienced at the venue a few days ago. Ning Guang's body felt slightly numb, and at the same time an unknown fire ignited in his heart.
Still want to open a harem?dream!When I got back, I asked Yan Fei to add a law prohibiting bigamy... "In short..." Ningguang's face was calm as usual, making it impossible to see Xiao Jiujiu in her heart: "Reward and responsibility are directly proportional. The more you pay, the more you pay." The greater the reward.”
"Responsibility..." Ye Xuan frowned: "Just like Ye Lan."
"That's right." Ning Guang said: "You and Ye Lan are both listed as Liyue's high-level combat power, how about it? As long as you complete some tasks assigned by Seven Stars on weekdays, and you need to apply for additional approval when going abroad, you don't need to... …”
"Forget it, Master Ningguang." Ye Xuan interrupted and refused directly: "The conditions sound very good, but I am used to being lazy, and... in this world, I don't want to live like clocking in at work anymore. days."
"That's it." Ningguang sighed and stopped insisting. That's right. After a year of hard study abroad, it was normal to have such thoughts.
She thought Ye Xuan was talking about the life of studying in the Teaching Academy, but she didn't know that Ye Xuan was talking about her previous life... "In that case...Ye Xuan." Ningguang's eyes flickered slightly: "Qixing will give up recruiting you for the time being. Can you make a private deal with me..."
... for a while.
"Lord Ningguang, is this really good?" Ye Xuan shook the contract in his hand: "This contract... can be said to be giving me money for free."
Just now, Ningguang signed a series of contracts with him that could be described as "losing power and humiliating the country".
Ningguang hired Ye Xuan in his own name on conditions similar to those of a Xumi mercenary. However, this contract would not only give Ye Xuan a large amount of mora every month, but also unconditionally support Yunxuan where Ye Xuan worked. The tea merchant's business, and the condition is just to help her in Ningguang's crisis, and it is all based on Ye Xuan's own free will.
Although he knew it was Liyue or Ningguang's method to win over him, Ye Xuan still felt a little incredible.
After all, according to Ningguang Merchant's behavior, this contract... is simply a charity.
"I think it's worth it." Ningguang looked at Ye Xuan, with a smile on his lips and a slight twinkle in his eyes: "Besides, I don't think Mr. Ye Xuan will refuse to save me after receiving the money. After all, you are right I did that kind of thing, and the relationship has already been extraordinary, right?"
"Uh, that's right..." The corner of Ye Xuan's mouth twitched slightly, feeling the increasingly weird look from Yun Jin next to him, and said quickly: "That's a deal, Master Ningguang, don't forget to pay me the money. superior……"
After that, he pulled Yun Jin and walked out of Wanmin Hall.
..."This transaction seems to be a big loss." Looking at the two people leaving, Ningguang sighed, with a hint of helplessness on his face.
Carefully folding the paper in her hand and putting it away. With her identity and experience, it would be impossible for her to sign such a "ridiculous" contract with others, but there is only one reason for Ningguang to do so today... "The Emperor entrusts his dream..." "Ning Guang closed his eyes slightly, recalling the strange scenes that appeared in his mind during his sleep a few days ago. The emperor's figure, words, and even breath were all very clear: "It's not my imagination, Ye Xuan... I hope it is really what the emperor said. , will bring Liyue to a different future."
...At the same time, Xumi, the Teaching Order.
In an office of the Intellectual Sect, the decoration and layout are very different from the modern style, as well as the densely packed ancient books in the huge bookshelves on the wall, showing the owner's preferences and knowledge.
Behind the huge solid wood desk, a beautiful girl with blue twintails and a white dress was holding her shoulders and looking impatiently at the two people in front of her.
"Kawaja, if you have anything to say, please tell me. Senior Fa Lushan, my research has just reached a critical point, and I don't have time to chat."
Chapter 116 Xumi’s Dilemma
The old man has a thin build, his gray hair is meticulously groomed, and a pair of glasses on his face highlights his elegant and rigorous scholar temperament. Behind him is a young man, about 20 years old, wearing ordinary scholar clothes, who seems to be the old man's student.
And this seemingly ordinary old man is none other than Khawaja, the sage of the current intellectual sect.
"You, Fa Lushan, how could you be so rude to the Sage!"
Before Khawaja could speak, the young man behind him took a step forward. His face turned red, and he seemed to be angry and a little afraid of the girl in front of him: "Teacher, as a sage of the Intellectual Sect, is responsible for everything. Today, I specially Make time to come and visit, Fa, Fa Lushan, you should..."
"What should it be? Do you want me to be like the rest of the academy and fawn over this kid?" Fa Lushan frowned when she heard this, her pretty face darkened for a moment, and her strong aura made the air in the room seem to be solidified: "And... said How many times have you called me...Senior!"
"You, you, Senior Fa Lushan..."
"Okay, Gulam, don't be rude to senior Fa Lushan." Seeing that the disciple became more and more incoherent in front of Fa Lushan, Khawaja waved his hands expressionlessly and interrupted his speech: "You go outside and wait. I."
"..."
"Sorry, Gulam always has such a reckless temper. I apologize to you on his behalf." Khawaja nodded slightly, without any airs of a sage.
"It doesn't matter, I also have something wrong." Fa Lushan moved the corner of her mouth and put her arm down: "That little guy is right. Khawaja, you are a sage of the Knowledge Sect after all. I should indeed speak with more respect. .”
"Senior Fa Lushan has defeated me. You are far superior to me in terms of qualifications and knowledge." Seeing that the atmosphere between the two gradually eased, Khawaja showed a smile on his lips.
Taking a few steps forward, his eyes casually glanced at the parts and academic materials placed on the table. After thinking for a while, he roughly guessed the research direction. A glimmer of understanding flashed in Khawaja's eyes. He raised his head and pretended to be surprised: " Is this a study on spiritual mechanisms in the Red King’s ruins? Senior Fa Lushan’s attainments in mechanism techniques are admirable.”
"It's just an ordinary research project, and...if you want to flatter me, you can skip it."
Fa Lushan narrowed her eyes slightly, stared at Khawaja for a long time, and said: "My research direction has always been unpopular, and almost no one pays attention to it on weekdays. The sage came in person today, I am afraid that he will not simply discuss academic matters with me. Bar."
"Our time is very precious, and it doesn't matter if the wise man has something to say."
"Sure enough, I can't hide it from senior." Putting down the information in his hand, the sage lowered his head slightly, and after pondering for a while, he asked an irrelevant question: "Senior Fa Lushan thinks... what is the academic strength of our teaching academy now?"
"Academic strength?" Fa Lushan frowned, wondering why the sage would ask such a question: "That is naturally the best in Tiwat. Although the research of various schools often encounters setbacks, with the efforts of countless scholars, , it has been making steady progress over the years.”
"Moving forward steadily? Does Senior Fa Lushan think so?" The sage slowly walked to the window, looked out the window at the trunk of the holy tree that seemed to be integrated with Xumi City, and said in a deep voice: "On the surface of our Xumi city Seemingly prosperous, the Teaching Council has maintained its status as an academic leader for hundreds of years, but in fact it faces two dilemmas."
"For hundreds of years, there have been almost no substantial breakthroughs in academic research by various factions in the Order, and..."
The sage suddenly turned around, and the bright eyes behind the lenses seemed to be burning with fire: "Sumiru's lifeline, the legendary world tree that records all the knowledge of Teyvat, is also gradually withering."
"And all of this... is because of the death of King Daci Shu."
"Kawaja, what do you want to express by saying this?" Fa Lushan frowned slightly: "Why is Xumi so miserable after losing the Great Merciful Tree King? Didn't we also find the new Lord Grass King?"
"She... the Little Auspicious Grass King and the Great Merciful Tree King are different." When Fa Lushan mentioned the name of the Little Grass God, the sage paused, and a hidden light flashed in his eyes.
"Little Lucky Grass King...has also been missing for hundreds of years."
"I don't care about things between gods." Fa Lushan stood up and interrupted, her expression became serious, as smart as she had vaguely guessed the sage's meaning: "Furthermore, the Order Academy does not rely entirely on the gods. Now, as for your statement that there is no progress in academic research... in my opinion, it is even more nonsense."
After saying that, Fa Lushan stretched out her arm and pointed to the rows of bookshelves on one side, with a bit of anger on her face: "At least in my opinion, in terms of machine arts and ancient literature research alone, today's Order Academy is much better than it was a hundred years ago. Big progress.”
"Kawaja, you, as a scholar and a sage of the intellectual sect, regard the research and efforts of countless scholars as nothing, but instead think about relying on gods all day long... It is simply ridiculous!"
"Oh, you can have this idea because you have never seen or even heard of the great power of the Great Ci Tree King."
"It is a true omniscience and omnipotence. Any academic bottleneck or research confusion, as long as the Great Ci Tree King is there, he can instantly give ideas and directions, saving scholars hundreds of years of hard work. At that time, Sumeru is the real A city of wisdom in the sense of the word.”
"Perhaps Senior Fa Lushan also has a say in this point." The sage looked at the slightly absent-minded girl in front of him with a faint look, and his words were filled with a trace of powerlessness and unwillingness: "Isn't it true that seniors are as talented and intelligent as they are in scientific research and exploration? What did you get in exchange for being trapped in the Red King's mechanism, but enduring a hundred years of loneliness and death, and even nearly losing your life?"
"For you, it may be a considerable amount of knowledge, experience and accumulation, but for the school, the Order, and even all mankind in Teyvat, it is just an insignificant wave in the sea."
"Besides..." The sage lowered his head slightly, seeming to recall something in his mind, and said softly: "Not everyone is as lucky as Senior Farushan, who can survive by receiving gifts from the mysterious existence in the ruins. Most of them are Scholars all..."
"Okay, no need to say any more." Fa Lushan interrupted the sage's tirade, with an ugly expression on her face: "So, the reason why you came to me today has something to do with the gods?"
"I won't reveal too much about the specific matters before senior agrees to participate." Hearing Fa Lushan's words, the sage's eyes flickered and he whispered: "We have indeed found a way to solve the current Xumi predicament. We need senior's help." help."
"Me? If you want to study these things, you have to at least find those talkative guys from the Life Theory School. They are the ones who know the most about the World Tree and the gods."
Fa Lushan frowned and suddenly remembered her past experience: "Could it be that you want to use the power of the Red King..."
Chapter 117 Planning ahead
"No." The sage shook his head: "Although the power of the Red King is miraculous, it will not be of much help to the next plan of the Order."
"What we really want is for Senior Fa Lushan to use his understanding of Red King's technology and knowledge of the corresponding mechanisms to transform and upgrade Xumi's void system."
The sage stared at Fa Lushan and told his purpose without hesitation.
"Void system?" Fa Lushan frowned slightly, and glanced at the green glowing green leaf cursor beside her ear unconsciously. A glimmer of light flashed in her eyes: "[Void]... isn't it used by Xumi City for communication and knowledge transmission? A tool? Is there room for upgrading and modification?"
"Of course there is. The legendary [Void] system was left behind by our Sumeru god, the Great Merciful Tree King. Of course it has other unimaginable functions."
The sage stared at the girl in front of him. Whether intentionally or unintentionally, the sage referred to the deceased Great Ci Tree King as the god of Sumeru, without mentioning the little Lucky Grass King who succeeded him at all: "But these... We just need Senior Fa Lushan to agree to join our plan, and then we can learn about it one by one."
The sage expresses his thoughts clearly, and there is no leakage between the lines.
"That's it..." Fa Lushan lowered her head, as if she didn't hear the impropriety in the sage's words. After thinking for a moment, she raised her head again: "But, I refuse."
"Huh?" The sage opened his eyes slightly, but his expression did not change. He looked at Fa Lushan, his tone was still calm and serious: "This is the legacy left by the Great Merciful Tree King. The depth of it is even greater than that in the desert. Are you not interested in the relics of the Red King and your predecessor’s obsession with the art of mechanism?”
"Of course I'm curious. I'm a scholar after all." Fa Lushan crossed her arms across her chest again and glanced at the parts and materials on the table: "But now there are several projects on hand, and I can't leave at all. Moreover...my major is still based on the study of ancient texts. As for institutions, it is just a hobby derived from the exploration process."
