Chapter 27 Hu Daji's Wonderful Performance
After everyone returned to their own yards, Gao Huohuo took the opportunity to slip away alone.
She had to go pick up Hu Daji, otherwise if he stayed outside for too long, he would easily be discovered by others.
"Hu···"
Gao Huohuo was about to call for help when he saw a cloud of white mist floating by. He stepped into it and saw Hu Daji huddled inside.
"Hu Daji, you are a Jindan cultivator after all, what are you afraid of?"
"fear death."
Okay, you answered very quickly. Next time, you don’t have to be so quick. It would be better to be more tactful.
"Auntie, you promised me to help me poison the Great Elder. When are we going?"
"I know you're anxious, but don't worry.
I have my own plans for the Great Elder. I will wait until the Evil Shadow Sect and the other three sects start fighting, then it will be convenient for me to fish in troubled waters.
And now that you're out, don't call me Auntie. Just call me Huo Huo from now on. Have you dealt with all the bodies I asked you to deal with?"
Hu Daji nodded and said, "Everything has been handled. I will make sure that no one else will find anything when they go in."
After saying this, he looked at Gao Huohuo hesitantly, and finally, under the threat of Gao Huohuo's eyes, he had to speak.
"Gu...Huohuo, how can you be sure that the Evil Shadow Sect is going to take care of the other three sects? Should we, the Shadow Moon Sect, also be on guard?"
Gao Huohuo smiled before speaking, "Twelve people from the Evil Shadow Sect went in and died, but most of the people from the other three sects are still alive. If you were the leader of the Evil Shadow Sect, what would you think?"
Hu Daji pondered for a moment before speaking:
"Of course I suspect that the other sects that went in killed my people. But Huo Huo, you went in too, so why don't you suspect the Shadow Moon Sect?"
"Because our Shadow Moon Sect, in their eyes, is just a sect with the smallest number of people and low strength, and can be completely ignored."
Hu Daji complained in his heart: It is true that they are small in number, but they are just pretending that they are not strong.
Can Gao Huohuo alone make all of them fool around?
The one you should be most careful of is Gao Huohuo, who is young and cunning.
"Hu Daji, I can tell from your expression that you are cursing me in your heart."
"It's unfair! How dare I scold you? I've signed a master-servant contract with you. You are my master now."
After Hu Daji finished speaking, he wiped the sweat from his palms and wondered in his heart: Is Gao Huohuo in the Qi Refining Stage?
How could she know that he was cursing her in his heart?
Gao Huohuo only then remembered that he had almost forgotten the important matter. He hurriedly took out his organized notes and asked Hu Daji to read them several times.
"When the master asks you, just say this..."
After hearing this, Hu Daji showed a constipated expression on his face and asked uncertainly:
"Huo Huo, are you sure your master won't kick me out like this?"
Gao Huohuo nodded confidently. Don't worry, she had done her homework in advance.
When they arrived at the entrance of the Shadow Moon Sect, Gao Huohuo discovered that Hu Daji could not get in. He had never noticed that there was something blocking it before.
She had no choice but to give her jade slip to Hu Daji and then brought him in.
Adhering to the principle of leniency to those who confess, Gao Huohuo went to find his master as soon as he returned.
"Master, I took the initiative to bring someone back from the competition. I would like to ask you to help check it out."
Shen Cangxuan snorted coldly and said dissatisfiedly:
"My little apprentice is very capable now. He has learned to act first and ask for permission later."
Gao Huohuo immediately knelt down, hugged Shen Cangxuan's legs and cried:
"It's all my fault. Master, you taught me since I was little that when I see injustice, I should draw my sword and help. Now I haven't drawn my sword yet, I just brought the person back.
But I forgot to inform my master in advance. This is truly a capital crime. If I had known this, I should have withdrawn from the competition in advance and asked my master for instructions first.
But the disciple saw him living alone in the forest for twenty years to avoid his enemies, and he felt sorry for him, so he decided to take a look.
Shen Cangxuan's brows furrowed again and again. When did he teach her since she was a child?
What about seeing injustice and drawing a sword to help? How could she, a mere Qi Refining Stage cultivator, be so bold?
What he said about asking for his permission to withdraw from the competition early, doesn't it mean that he, as a master, only cares about his own pride and doesn't care about the life and death of his disciples?
Where did Gao Huohuo get so many twisted ideas from in one day?
Feeling his trouser legs being shaken, Shen Cangxuan realized that his little disciple was still holding his legs.
He wanted to kick her away, but was afraid of hurting her, so he could only yell, "Nonsense! Let me go!"
Gao Huohuo stood up quickly upon hearing this, and said to him with a grateful expression:
"Master, I have brought the person here. I will bring him here for you to take a look."
The young disciple ran away like a gust of wind again, not giving him a chance to object. Did he agree just now? She brought people over.
Shen Cangxuan picked up the tea on the table and took a sip, silently persuading himself in his heart.
Don’t be angry, don’t be angry. Your apprentices are all yours. If they are really disobedient, you can just give them a beating one day.
So when Gao Huohuo brought Hu Daji here, Shen Cangxuan returned to his usual calm state.
"Master, this is the Hu Daji I told you about. You two can have a good chat. I'm going down first."
When Gao Huohuo left, she gestured to Hu Daji, meaning that he should not forget what she taught him today.
Hu Daji sat opposite Shen Cangxuan trembling with fear. It was obvious that the other party was at the Jindan stage like him, but he felt that the other party's aura was definitely superior to his.
"Master Shen, hello, my name is Hu Daji, and I was originally an outer sect elder of the Blood Demon Sect."
Hu Daji recalled the process that Gao Huohuo taught him. First, he introduced himself normally, and then he recounted his past events with tears in his eyes.
Especially in the part about the past, the performance strives to be seamless and reveal true emotions, which is necessary to move people and establish his own strong character.
Then comes the expression of loyalty. This part can be skipped by just fooling around a few times. Gao Huohuo said that his master doesn't read these.
The last part is an impassioned summary, which should be organized and clear. This part is also very important.
Gao Huohuo said that most examiners only look at the beginning and the end, but she also designed a climax, which is definitely a perfect answer.
Although Hu Daji didn't understand the meaning of the answer sheet and the marking, he still believed what Gao Huohuo said.
After Hu Daji finished this performance, he found that Shen Cangxuan did not look as empathetic as Gao Huohuo said.
Instead, he kept drinking tea, as if to suppress certain emotions in his body.
Could it be that Sect Master Shen, as Gao Huohuo said, was so moved by his performance that he needed to drink tea to calm down?
When the fire in his heart was finally suppressed, Shen Cangxuan gritted his teeth and asked:
"Did Gao Huohuo teach you all that just now?"
Hu Daji nodded in disbelief. No wonder Gao Huohuo was so powerful. It turned out it was because her master was so powerful!
“Crack.”
The water cup in Shen Cangxuan’s hand was directly crushed, and he recited the Heart Purification Mantra several times before he could finally speak calmly.
"I'll give you one last chance. Say it again."
Hu Daji was frightened by Shen Cangxuan's eyes at this time. Say it again? Could it be that he didn't see enough of the performance just now?
Just as he was about to do it again, he heard Shen Cangxuan's cold voice.
"Think it over carefully before you speak."
Think clearly? Could it be that he didn't perform clearly just now?
Hu Daji secretly glanced at Shen Cangxuan, and then he realized that he was not moved by his performance, but was very angry.
When Hu Daji later became the elder of the Shadow Moon Sect, he summed up a truth.
You can believe anything Gao Huohuo says, except her judgment about her master.
