Yun Zheng was in no mood to get involved anymore. She simply raised her hand and asked Meng Tian for rubies, saying in a cold tone, "True Word Pill, one million rubies."
Meng Tian opened her mouth and said with embarrassment: "You forced it on me, I didn't want it at all."
Yun Zheng said with a smile, "Well, it's like being eaten by a dog."
After she finished speaking, Yun Zheng raised her eyes and glanced at Wu Liangxue lightly, with a hint of warning in her eyes, as if saying 'don't mess with me'.
Wu Liangxue's body trembled, and a hint of panic flashed across her pretty face. Could it be that Yun Zheng knew that she was impersonating Luo Fangfei that night? !
Moreover, why did Yun Zheng let Meng Tian take the True Word Pill at the beginning?
Could it be that...
Did she notice the clues from the beginning?
Yun Zheng ignored them and went straight back to her room. Losing a Mantra Pill was a lesson for her. She would stop meddling in other people's business in the future.
After she returned to the room, she heard the quarrel between Luo Fangfei and Meng Tian outside. Jun Zhaoyan and Wu Liangxue tried to dissuade them.
As a result, they started fighting each other.
Fortunately, they didn't use spiritual power, otherwise the academy instructor would find out and punish them. After all, fighting with spiritual power is forbidden in the academy.
The people in the neighboring courtyard also heard the noise and were about to come over to see what was going on when Jun Zhaoyan simply closed the courtyard door and refused anyone else access.
Yun Zheng directly set up a soundproof barrier and then concentrated on refining runes.
Time passed by bit by bit, and while refining, Yun Zheng suddenly found that there was no talisman paper left.
Yun Zheng put the thick stack of runes she had refined back into her storage space. She said softly, "Looks like I'll have to wait until my day off to go out and buy some talisman paper."
…
The next morning
When Yun Zheng was about to go to the library, Jun Zhaoyan stopped her.
"Yun Zheng, I'm so sorry for dragging you into this yesterday and causing you to waste a Mantra Pill."
Jun Zhaoyan said apologetically, "Luo Fangfei and I have discussed this. Since you have proven our innocence, we should return the one million rubies to you."
As he spoke, Jun Zhaoyan took out a storage bag and handed it to Yun Zheng.
Yun Zheng didn't take it. Instead, she smiled and said, "No need. We live under the same roof, so we're just helping each other. Besides, this Mantra Pill can be considered a lesson for me."
And...seeing the human heart clearly.
This is a preventive measure.
Yun Zheng had a good impression of Jun Zhaoyan, who was smart and calm.
"Okay." After hearing what she said, Jun Zhaoyan guessed her personality and stopped forcing her.
"I'm leaving first."
Yun Zheng smiled at her, then turned and walked towards the gate of the courtyard.
Jun Zhaoyan looked at the girl's departing back and pursed her lips.
…
The library was located deep in the academy, so Yun Zheng had to ask people for directions along the way. At the same time, she sent messages to Feng Xinglan from time to time.
Let him wait for me outside the library.
The deeper Yun Zheng walked into the academy, the more...remote it felt.
The towering attics and the narrow roads are somewhat dim, making it seem deep and remote.
She saw that the attics on both sides were closed, there was no one inside, and there was a faint layer of dust, which meant that no one had been there for a long time.
Yun Zheng suspected that she had taken the wrong road. Just as she was about to send a message to Feng Xinglan, a figure suddenly appeared in front of her.
She looked up and saw an old man in tattered clothes leaning against the wall, holding a large jar of wine in his hand, drinking it again and again.
"Gurgle gurgle..."
The aroma of wine can't help but be a bit strong.
Suddenly, the drunken old man pointed his finger towards her, hooked it, and said with a somewhat obscene smile: "Come here, let me take a good look at you."
Yun Zheng: “…”
Yun Zheng frowned. She couldn't see through the old man's cultivation level, but the aura he exuded was restrained and steady, so he must be a strong man.
What's more, why would an old man appear in Qiongtian Academy for no reason?
Mr. Jin is an old man sweeping the floor, so is this an old drunkard?
Yun Zheng raised an eyebrow and said honestly, "Senior, your smile is too vulgar. I don't dare to go over."
The drunk old man's smile froze: "..." Was his smile obscene?
"Zhao Jintong, go back and look in the mirror before coming back." A steady female voice suddenly came from above.
Yun Zheng was slightly startled. She looked in the direction of the voice and saw a woman in a long Hunan-colored dress standing on the attic. Her facial features were three-dimensional and quite exotic. She looked to be about thirty or forty years old.
She has the calmness that comes from years of experience, and a sense of majesty without even getting angry.
The drunk old man, Zhao Jintong, stood up straight, took a gulp of wine, and said with a smile: "Nineth Lady, didn't you say you wouldn't come back?"
Lady Jiu glanced around and said, "They've all returned, so naturally I have to return."
As soon as these words were spoken, two more people appeared behind Yun Zheng. The middle-aged man in the black robe had a fierce expression and eyes as sharp as swords, while the other middle-aged man in the gray robe looked like a smiling tiger, with a fake smile on his face.
Yun Zheng: "..." Did I accidentally enter the circle of big guys?
She turned around, tried to minimize her presence, nodded with a smile, and when she was about to go back in the same direction, she was stopped by a strange old man who suddenly appeared.
The old man in the plain robe had a wrinkled face and stared at Yun Zheng with cloudy eyes. He said slowly, "Hey, little girl, you can't leave yet."
"Senior, I took the wrong road." Yun Zheng smiled and pulled the corners of her lips.
As she spoke, she quickly walked around the old man and left the place as fast as she could.
The best option is to run away!
Halfway through her run, someone grabbed her shoulder.
"Why are you running?" Lady Jiu held Yun Zheng's shoulders, preventing her from moving.
Yun Zheng looked at Lady Jiu and said sincerely, "Seniors, if I stay here, I will disturb you, so it is best for me to leave."
Lady Jiu smiled and said, "But the person we are looking for is you."
Yun Zheng was puzzled. Why were they looking for her? Could it be that her relationship with Ah Shuo had been exposed? That was impossible. Even if it was, these seemingly elder-level seniors wouldn't come looking for her all at once...
Could it be that Daddy had done something outrageous to both humans and gods?
Do they know...mother?
Yun Zheng thought about all the possibilities, but still couldn't get confirmation.
So, she asked directly and politely, "Seniors, what can I do for you?"
Lady Jiu frowned, "How should we handle your 'seduction and abandonment' of us?"
Yun Zheng: “???” Seducing and abandoning?
Zhao Jintong came over holding the wine jar. He snorted coldly, "What? You still don't want to admit it?"
Yun Zheng asked with a puzzled look on her face, "Seniors, did you recognize the wrong person? I am several generations older than you..."
How could he abandon someone who has nothing to do with him?
