Chapter 40: Provoking Ginger Wine Means Nothing Happens
Jiang Jiu didn't know that she had only been on the immortal path for less than two months, but she had already become a guest official of the Taoist sect. Taoist Xuanqing valued her far more than she had imagined.
At this moment, she was staring at the crane that came from the main peak to deliver the message with deep hatred.
"So it doesn't mean you don't have to participate in the competition, but you have to be a mascot?"
Jiang Jiu looked at the sound transmission note given by the Great Elder with a sad face.
Thinking about spending the rest of his time sitting on the platform watching others compete, Jiang Jiu's urge to kill became even stronger.
But thinking about her previous encounter with the opponent...
A lark, a pure love god of war, a terrorist newspaperman, a zero who lusted after her body, and a saint who wanted to be her lackey.
There is no normal person.
The balance in Jiang Jiu's heart suddenly tilted, and he decided to become a mascot.
My mind is already very abnormal, my body must be healthy!
The Great Elder specially reserved a prominent place for Jiang Jiu on the seat of elders in Juetian Sect. His original intention was good, reflecting his respect and importance for Jiang Jiu.
Unfortunately, this location is like dancing in a ginger wine minefield.
But fortunately, the person he offended was Jiang Jiu.
Jiang Jiu, who is socially anxious, only dares to complain in his heart and never dares to show it in front of others.
If you mess with ginger wine, nothing will happen.
The cowardly group gets one more point.
Jiang Jiu sat in the seat originally reserved for the elders to watch the battle, and got angry for a moment.
I cursed the Great Elder in my heart a hundred times.
In reality, he just stared at the Great Elder with resentment for a few seconds, then looked away. Even one more second would be disrespectful to himself.
"Isn't Junior Sister participating in the competition today? Why did you end up taking the elder position?"
"Then we won't have the chance to get close to our Junior Sister!"
"Stop arguing, the Great Elder is about to speak."
Jiang Jiu was sitting uncomfortably, but no one paid any attention to her. All they saw was her looking down upon everything below, as cold as the ice on the snowy mountain, with clear eyes that were not stained by dust, just like a god who saved all living beings. Heaven and earth were unkind, and all things were treated as straw dogs.
"As Sect Leader Ji Chen's direct disciple, it would be unfair for Jiang Jiu to participate in the competition."
The Great Elder had an air of immortality. As soon as he spoke, the whole audience fell silent.
In fact, this was not his plan alone. He made the decision after discussing it with several elders last night.
"Our sect considers Jiang Jiu to be at the top of the honor list and will not compete for the ranking rewards in the competition."
The Great Elder knew how high Jiang Jiu's reputation was among the disciples. Even the elders like them and even the Sect Leader Ji Chen could not compare to him.
If Jiang Jiu was asked to withdraw directly, it would probably arouse their dissatisfaction. It would be better to make a big promise. As for whether Jiang Jiu is willing to fulfill it, it is not his business.
"However, the disciples will be there during the Ginger Wine Competition. If they perform well, they may receive her guidance or individual rewards."
"I wish you all success."
After the Great Elder finished speaking, he sat back in his seat with a calm expression.
Jiang Jiu, who was standing by, had a face full of question marks.
When did she say she wanted to give advice to others?
Why did you drag her into this so casually?
"The Jueyun Sect is so generous!"
"So now we can't rely on luck to see the little apprentice sister, can we only rely on strength?"
"No, what the Great Elder means is that as long as you try your best, maybe Jiang Jiu will see you."
No matter what people were talking about below, Jiang Jiu remained cold and indifferent.
In fact, Jiang Jiu was secretly looking at the promotion rankings, and she discovered that Yun Shuili and Ye Yiyi had not failed so far.
Especially Yun Shuili, how could he, a mermaid who had never practiced martial arts, persist for so many rounds?
Doesn't seem real...
Soon, Jiang Jiu knew why.
Ye Yiyi is worthy of being the heroine. For two whole days, she was matched with four or five players every day, but they were all practicing Qi and building the foundation, and none of them were stronger than her.
Her heroic figure also won the admiration of many male disciples. Jiang Jiu could see their courtesy from such a distance.
Isn’t it just a simple mode? Aren’t the people you match with normal people?
It doesn't matter, she doesn't care, she doesn't envy (wearing sunglasses) haha ...! The blue-faced Dou Erdun stole your mother, and the red-faced Guan Gong fought your father!
What a satisfying defense-breaking experience, woooo.
As for Yunshui Li...
Jiang Jiu couldn't remember how many people had chosen to surrender because of his handsome face.
I don’t know if it was a coincidence, but the photo stone also deliberately magnified the stunned expression on Yun Shuili’s opponent’s face when he was looking at him, which was very funny.
Jiang Jiu couldn't help but think of the first time he met Yun Shuili, who seemed to be in a similar state.
Once again, I am glad that I have a expressionless face and did not embarrass myself in front of the real person.
This victory was so easy and simple that she couldn't even envy it.
If I have to describe how stunning Yun Shuili's appearance is, it's like the resurrection of the Soviet Union, so beautiful.
Jiang Jiu suddenly realized that this location was also good, a great viewing spot for eating melons.
When you stare into the abyss, the abyss also stares into you.
For example, she just saw a chubby little boy who looked like a New Year picture doll and was wearing a red bellyband. He seemed to have lost his family and was looking for his mother pitifully in the crowd.
Jiang Jiu planned to observe the little fat boy and be careful not to let any bad guys take him away.
Unexpectedly, the child suddenly drilled into the ground and whooshed out for dozens of meters. It was so smooth and enjoyable that Jiang Jiu was stunned.
Learning the art of earth escape is not difficult, but this is the first time she has seen someone do it so smoothly.
"?"
Jiang Jiu wasn't sure if he was human anymore.
Just as Jiang Jiu was earnestly looking for the trace of the little fat boy, a cute child's voice suddenly came to his ears.
"Mom, are you looking for me?"
The chubby boy's voice was not loud, even very small, but because there were so many people paying attention to Jiang Jiu, except for the cultivators who were competing, almost everyone in the audience fell silent, looking at the position where Jiang Jiu was above with strange eyes.
Jiang Jiu was instantly sweating profusely.
She turned her head stiffly, and as expected, it was the child from before.
"I'm not your mother."
What's going on? Painless motherhood?
She was a solo virgin in both her previous life and this life, so she couldn't have an extra son for no reason.
"No, you are my mother."
The chubby boy held Jiang Jiu's arm firmly, as if he was going to cry if Jiang Jiu didn't acknowledge him.
The pure and innocent junior sister actually had a child. This was enough to make all the voices disappear.
Everyone pricked up their ears and started eating melons. Now the poles were reversed and Ginger Wine became the clown.
Even Long Xuan, who had just finished the competition, cast a heavy gaze in the direction of Jiang Jiu.
"Who is your father?"
Jiang Jiu asked after a moment of silence.
"I don't have a daddy, only a mommy."
After trying to communicate without success, Jiang Jiu just wanted to commit suicide on the spot.
"Mom, don't you like me? If I give you my arm to eat, will you like me?"
After the chubby boy made his shocking remarks, he actually looked at his arm with a painful expression, ready to twist a piece off.
"No!"
Jiang Jiu quickly reached out to stop her, she was not a monster that ate young boys and girls.
"Mom doesn't like it? Then Xiao Shen will have nothing to give to Mom."
As she spoke, Xiao Can pouted and started crying. Jiang Jiu was not socially anxious this time, but was directly socially dead. She had the urge to run away.
Just when Jiang Jiu was in despair, she suddenly remembered the novel she had read.
So he quickly covered the child's mouth and asked seriously.
"You are a ginseng doll."
It’s no wonder Jiang Jiu thought so. This child’s behavior was abnormal. She could burrow underground and even had to be given an arm to eat. She didn’t look like a human at all.
"Uh, yeah."
Xiao Can really calmed down and stopped crying. She nodded seriously at Jiang Jiu.
Jiang Jiu breathed a sigh of relief, successfully defending his innocence.
She is 16 years old, how could she have such a big child?
The onlookers did not recover from this, but became even more silent.
The silence made Jiang Jiu feel uneasy.
Is there something wrong? Didn't she prove that she is not the child's mother?
Little did they know that they remained silent so that Jiang Jiu could recognize that the child was Ginseng.
No one has ever seen a ginseng that can grow into a human form, but Jiang Jiu could recognize it at a glance.
This further proves that she is the reincarnation of a powerful being.
