Chapter 131 Training 09

After hearing this, Jiang Yuelu felt as if she was whipped by a tiny whip. Her limbs and bones felt numb and itchy. She couldn't help but fan herself, "It feels a little hot."

Xia Yi looked over in confusion, "Hot? It's only morning now, and there's still a cold wind blowing in the mountains."

"Where is the cold wind... A-choo!" Jiang Yuelu sniffed, and a chill ran up his spine. It seemed that his cold had never healed, but as he was busy with other things, he had no time to be distracted.

After dealing with Xia Yi, he came back to deal with the Chairman.

Now that everything was finally settled, he breathed a sigh of relief, but at the same time, the disease took advantage of the opportunity and came back again, and it was relentless, as if teaching him a lesson for his previous neglect.

When all these things are over, he must have a good sleep...

Jiang Yuelu endured the headache and continued to ask: "So, why does the Wu family's child not get along with Mo Zhixian? Did they have any grudges in the past?"

It must be Mo Zhixian, the ruthless scoring machine, who deducted other people's points! He was sure of it.

Xia Yi replied: "It's not the grudge between the two of them. You mentioned it, too. It's the Wu family and the Mo family. I only need to say one sentence and you will understand."

"The god worshipped by the Mo family now is good at playing the zither and is proficient in music. He walks the path of pleasing the gods. But a few years ago, this divine power belonged to the Wu family."

Thinking of the "four families" mentioned in the old scroll, Jiang Yuelu slowly figured it out: "In other words, the Wu family was one of the four families of the previous generation, but for some reasons, they were replaced and the gods they worshipped were taken away..." Perhaps Wu Yeming's betrayal was the fuse.

“But that’s not right either.”

"What's wrong?"

Jiang Yuelu said, "If that's the case, I understand that the Wu family has hatred for the Mo family, but the Mo family... Why does Mo Zhixian look a little guilty and ashamed? It seems that he doesn't dare to face the Wu family. They are the victorious party that punished the traitor, so they should be very open and have a clear conscience. Now they are very conflicted."

Xia Yi looked at him and said, "You have always been observant. The details you noticed are correct."

"Mo Zhixian feels very guilty, because the relationship between their two families is deeper and more complicated than that between relatives and friends."

"Ah..." Jiang Yuelu remembered.

...the wizards who pleased the gods and fought against each other, they married and became a huge family.

...However, this story, which was once widely circulated in the witchcraft world, has now become a laughing stock.

This is what the elder scroll said.

"Because they are relatives... maybe they have a close relationship, it's really complicated." Jiang Yuelu suddenly realized.

Xia Yi looked at him strangely, "You, are not right."

Jiang Yuelu touched her face and asked, "What's wrong with me?"

"You shouldn't be so slow to react. You should have figured out the answer yourself before I explained it." Xia Yi said strangely, "We always played quick questions and quick answers before, and you always beat me."

Jiang Yuelu hesitated and said, "Maybe I was just distracted."

Xia Yi was dissatisfied, but he didn't complain. But Jiang Yuelu could still see the displeasure on his face: "You were distracted while being with me."

In fact, he knew why he was slow to react.

Shaking his chaotic head, he couldn't help but feel bitter. Being a ghost also has its advantages, that is, he doesn't need to get sick. Can he explain to Xia Yi what is sick and what is uncomfortable? I guess it's not possible.

He let his brain start the thinking process and woke up his nerves in advance.

What on earth is divine power? How could it be taken away? Could it be transferred?

What kind of existence is a god? Does he have no feelings for the family he protects? He can leave at will and change his surname at will. From the Wu family to the Mo family, if the Jiang family appears and captures him in the future, will he change his surname again? What kind of slave is this? He is not like a god at all...

Unconsciously, the image of God became somewhat disillusioned.

"So..." He cleared his throat to make his hoarse voice clearer, "This nameless kid from the Wu family was tied to a tree by you. Is it okay? Just leave it there?"

"It doesn't matter."

Xia Yi said: "He doesn't belong to any class, he's a street kid. The Wu family members died or scattered, and the few who were left changed their names. He's the only one who still sticks with it."

Jiang Yuelu was curious, "You only met him once, and you know so much?"

"That's nothing." Xia Yi snorted, "I have my own way to ask him."

"What a poor child of the Wu family..." Jiang Yuelu felt extremely sympathetic.

Xia Yi said unhappily: "Don't call me the kid from the Wu family all the time. I have a name."

Jiang Yuelu: “What! You just said there was no name.” Although he only mentioned it once, he then began to talk about his past.

He seriously suspected that Xia Yi was sure of his soft-hearted character and wanted to say more pleasant things to coax him, or tell him more about his tragic past to soften his heart.

But I have to say, this trick is very effective.

Xia Yi said: "He doesn't have a name like yours, because no one gave it to him. But he has a nickname that outsiders call him."

"Well, for a street kid, a nickname seems to be considered a name." Jiang Yuelu sighed, "It's quite pitiful. I'm sure the nickname won't be very nice."

Xia Yi: "That may not be the case. I think his name is very good."

"What's your name?"

"Ghost head Xiaowu."

Xia Yi explained: "Ghost head, of course, means that he often does not show his true face. He always wears a bulky and ugly ghost head, as if he picked up some rags from a festival. There are two origins of Xiaowu."

"One is that he was the fifth child when he was born. The other is simpler, it's the homonym of the Chinese character for wu."

Jiang Yuelu didn't understand, "What's so good about this name?"

Xia Yi said: "Don't you think Guitou is cool? It sounds scary. And it's simple, easy to remember, and catchy. Anyway, I think it's a good name."

Jiang Yuelu wanted to say, why not name you Red-Eyed Xiaoxia.

But after looking at those murderous red eyes, he didn't dare to say anything and swallowed his words.

"Let's go." Xia Yi walked onto the path without looking back, "Don't worry about other people's children. You still have your own assessments and training to do."

Jiang Yuelu: “Yes.”

He rubbed his face vigorously to cool down the burning sensation, tried to wake up, and walked a few quick steps to catch up with Xia Yi. He urged him, "The test questions for you this time are not difficult, but not easy either. The answers are in the village at the foot of Niu Shou Mountain. Walk faster now, maybe you still have a chance."

Jiang Yuelu said optimistically: "Forget it. If I go now, I will be far behind. I don't ask for a very good result. I just want to pass."

"How can that be possible?" Xia Yi was disappointed. "It's fine as long as I can pass. What are you thinking?"

Jiang Yuelu didn't know whether to laugh or cry, "What happened again?"

Xia Yi glared: "With me here, can you get good grades? Just wait and see, I will let the answers come to you, and you can get first place just by sitting still."

Jiang Yuelu muttered: "I don't want to be a gigolo..."

He insisted on maintaining his self-improvement character, calling up cultivation materials as he walked.

The information was originally sent to his mobile phone a day ago, but because he was busy with a lot of things right after landing, it is still not opened.

Jiang Yuelu stared at the small screen, feeling like his eyes were going blind. He had to rub his sore eye sockets from time to time, and his efficiency was even lower. In the end, Xia Yi couldn't stand it anymore and dictated for him.

It turns out that there is a Niu Shou Village at the foot of Niu Shou Mountain. The villagers live by the mountain and the water, and they have no worries about food and clothing.

It can be said that the situation has been peaceful for many years. There has never been any major incident involving injury or bloodshed, and even trivial disputes between neighbors are very rare.

But a week ago, something strange suddenly happened in this village.

Xia Yi said: "This all started from the old village chief's birthday party a week ago."

"Village Chief Niu has worked hard for the village for decades and has always been popular in the village. The birthday banquet is also a big birthday banquet, so his family organized it very grandly. They killed a lot of chickens, ducks, fish and geese, and there were dozens of tables for the banquet."

"The people who were eating the feast were toasting and celebrating the birthday, and the people celebrating the birthday had rosy faces. It looked like a happy occasion. But such a wonderful birthday feast was ruined by the eldest grandson of Village Chief Niu."

Jiang Yuelu: "Did you have a quarrel with the guests?"

Xia Yi: “No.”

Jiang Yuelu: "I know. He must have caused trouble outside, and his enemies picked a day to settle the score."

Xia Yi: "He has to have the courage. The Niu family has strict education. At most, he has a little flaw in his talkativeness, but he has no other bad reputation."

Jiang Yuelu shook her head, "Then I don't know."

Xia Yi snorted, "He lost his memory. Someone came to his house and scolded him."

Jiang Yuelu: "...Are you serious or are you insinuating me?"

"Fake."

"Then stop teasing me!"

Xia Yi snorted and laughed: "He has a sound personality and a complete memory. There is nothing wrong with his experiences in the past twenty years. But on his grandfather's birthday, he spoke without restraint, scolding his elders and making indirect accusations. He didn't use a single dirty word, but what he said was very unpleasant, and the old man was furious on the spot."

Jiang Yuelu didn't understand, "Why? Is he crazy?"

"That's what he said."

"He yelled that he was seriously ill and asked his family to quickly get him a miracle doctor. Then he shut up and let his father tie him up with a rope and beat him 30 times. He didn't say a word. Only his mother, who felt sorry for her son who was beaten and hungry, opened the door in the middle of the night and handed him a bowl of steaming hot food."

"While he was eating with tears in his eyes, he admitted to her that he was really ill."

"Maybe even doctors can't cure him. Only the divine doctor who can exorcise demons and catch ghosts can help. Because his illness is not serious, but not small either. He has encountered evil spirits and attracted evil spirits."

"After saying just these two sentences, he pushed my mother away and refused to say another word. His poor mother kept asking, 'My son, what sin have you committed?' He pointed at his mouth and said four meaningful words."

It was just right to hear, but there was no follow-up. Jiang Yuelu was about to urge him, but he looked up and saw Xia Yi turning back, which frightened him so much that his heart started beating fast. He hesitated and asked, "Which four words?"

Xia Yi put his finger to his lips and whispered, "Misfortune comes from the mouth."
