"Sir, would you please take a look at what I have written first?"
Nangong Zhenxiang took out a book from his bosom.
Kong Fang waved his hands repeatedly: "Stop, I won't look!"
You little brat, I knew from the first day of school that you had no concept of money!
"If I were to give them what you wrote, I'm afraid I'd have to sell myself to the Spirit Sect to earn enough spirit fruits."
"Teacher, then tell me how much you can contribute?"
"Don't be so stingy with just three or five Dharma-image Fruits; it'll make the students lose face if we take them out like this."
Nangong Zhenxiang's brows furrowed, and a rare look of worry appeared between his brows.
Looking at Nangong Zhenxiang's full head of white hair, Kong Fang felt another pang of heartache.
He himself, as a student, had sacrificed too much for the ideals of the academy; he didn't have to do it.
Thinking of this, Kong Fang quickly rejected the number he had in mind.
He held up two fingers and said:
"Ten Dharma Image Fruits, plus other spiritual fruits of equal value to ten Dharma Image Fruits!"
This is already the limit of what Kong Fang could achieve.
The academy's treasury could only give Li Fan a maximum of five pieces.
As for the others, they naturally overdraw the future rations of Kong Fang.
Even so, he still needs others to squeeze in a little bit each.
The Jixia Academy was not wealthy at all.
"Thank you, teacher. I'll take my leave now!"
Nangong Zhenxiang left as soon as he finished speaking, giving everyone no time to react.
Whether intentionally or unintentionally, that book simply fell to the ground.
"Teacher, I'll take my leave now!"
After bowing, Jiang Lan also got up and left.
......
The Jiang sisters had only walked fifty meters when they heard Liu Jingyan's laughter behind them.
Immediately following was Kong Fang's furious voice.
"Nangong Zhenxiang, if you've got the guts, don't come back!"
Inside the room, Kong Fang held an empty book.
That brat didn't write a single word.
I even felt sorry for him, that disrespectful scoundrel.
"Hahaha, Old Kong, your two apprentices really have you wrapped around their little finger."
"I'm happy to be manipulated?"
"If you're not convinced, how about you raise two such accomplished disciples?"
After Kong Fang finished speaking, Liu Jingyan's smile froze.
He really couldn't have taught such a promising disciple.
wrong!
It's not that I can't teach them; it's clearly that those rebellious students are just not up to par.
No, I must go back and urge them on.
Liu Jingyan turned and disappeared into the night.
Under the cover of night, a middle-aged scholar was called to rise and study by lamplight.
Of course, he wasn't alone.
After all, Liu Jingyan was a figure of the same generation as Kong Fang, and he had many disciples.
......
Behind me, the earth was covered in white snow, and the lights shone like stars.
The gentleman, with a smile on his face, walked with increasingly lighter steps.
The existence of young people like Nangong Zhenxiang, Jiang Lan, and Li Fan is a blessing for the Great Zhou Dynasty.
He seemed to see that, many years later, the entire Zhou Dynasty would be filled with joy.
The reason for our joy is that those young people once came here!
......
In the blink of an eye, seven days have passed since the great battle.
In Jiangzhou, the details of everything have been completely clarified.
On this day, someone crossed the Lanjiang River.
Han Yan poled the boat, while Yan Mingshu lay on the light boat.
The light boat darted like an arrow, and the snores were drowned out by the sound of the flowing water.
Before long, the light boat arrived at its destination.
"Mr. Han, have we arrived?"
When the light boat came to a stop, Yan Mingshu, who was lying down, instinctively got up.
"Um!"
Han Yan nodded.
For the past seven days, Yan Mingshu has basically worked without sleep or rest.
The officialdom needs to be rectified.
The news must be suppressed.
The resources need to be transported away.
Order must not be disrupted.
Everything was operating according to Yan Mingshu's rules.
To ensure that these rules could be followed, Yan Mingshu went through everything again and again.
Every single one of these qualities is rare and precious.
But Yan Mingshu did everything very well.
Even Han Yan couldn't find any fault with it.
"Lord Yan, you've worked hard!"
Long Daoji smiled and looked at Yan Mingshu.
Even he had to admire the young man in front of him.
In just seven days, everything can be made to seem as if it never happened.
At least he himself couldn't do it.
"Master Longmen, you're too kind?"
Yan Mingshu asked calmly, "Has Li Fan woken up?"
"I woke up two days ago!"
Long Daoji nodded.
"That's good!"
Upon hearing this, Yan Mingshu finally smiled.
He never questioned Li Fan, but he couldn't help but worry.
This guy usually acts like he's the coolest, but when something really happens, he's the one who steps up first.
They're always risking their lives; it's just reckless!
......
Yan Mingshu was already used to Li Fan's miserable state.
He looked at Li Fan and said, "Shall we go back to Nanzhou together?"
"I won't go back for now!"
Li Fan shook his head.
"Li Fan, you really think you won't die, right?"
You are indeed very strong, but the Jixia Academy doesn't need to rely on you alone.
Yan Mingshu said bluntly, "Those old guys at the academy are stronger than you think."
"Mind your own business!"
Li Fan said irritably, "Get out of here, rock and roll, stop being so wishy-washy."
Everyone has a scale in their heart.
Li Fan was the same.
Was this trip from Haizhou to Yuzhou because of the Jixia Academy?
The answer is obvious: no!
He simply wanted to use entrapment to plunder resources and become stronger.
As for what benefits the Jixia Academy gained from this, that's the academy's business. He wouldn't involve himself in it, nor did he intend for the academy to take the blame for him.
For example, the Ten Thousand Demons Sect!
"This brat is not worth discussing anything with!"
Yan Mingshu, exasperated, pointed at Li Fan and said, "You're biting the hand that feeds you! You don't appreciate kindness!"
"You stubborn mule, are you trying to drive me crazy?"
But no matter what Yan Mingshu said, Li Fan remained unmoved.
"You bastard, I must have owed you something in my past life!"
Where are you going? I'll have people prepare supplies along the way.
"This haul from Yuzhou will be enough for you to squander for a while."
Finally, Yan Mingshu stopped trying to persuade him.
Whatever, if I die, I die.
"Good brother, I'm leaving the logistics to you!"
Li Fan smiled and handed over a map.
After waking up, he made up his mind.
This journey will take us north.
Firstly, to buy time and lure away the pursuers from the Ten Thousand Demons Sect.
Secondly, it is natural to repay grievances and settle scores.
He would visit anyone who participated in the war.
As for whether to kill or torture them, that depends on whether those people know what's good for them.
Yan Mingshu frowned as he opened the map.
Li Fan and his group planned to travel north by water.
The final destination is Tiandu.
However, the route bypasses Yu and Qing prefectures.
Without even thinking, Yan Mingshu knew what Li Fan was going to do.
Lingzong of Yuzhou, Lü Xiaoyi of Qingzhou.
This guy is planning to go and fight.
"Li Fan, I won't say anything else."
But you bastard, you can't just wander around with low health.
Even if you want to go and fight them, you have to recover from your injuries first!
Did you hear that?
Yan Mingshu put away the map and gave serious instructions.
"Old Chen, did you hear that?"
I'm talking about you! Full of health, you stay in the mountains; low on health, you roam around everywhere!
Li Fan pointed at Chen Kui and said.
Li Fan naturally wouldn't acknowledge that someone with residual blood was roaming around.
His remaining health might even make him more powerful than when he's at full strength.
Old Chen is such a useless piece of trash, always running out of strength for a single strike!
"I'm at full health, you bastard!"
"I'm squatting in the mountains because I'm injured and can't move."
Chen Kui retorted irritably.
Although it is true, he is unwilling to admit it so easily.
"Alright, you two are exactly the same."
Yan Mingshu had no interest in continuing the conversation; he had many other things to do.
Whether it's the allocation of resources or the arrangement of supply points, careful preparation is needed.
After all, many places are someone else's territory.
