Chapter 103 From now on, I will be your senior sister
On the third day after participating in the Bailu Academy selection, Xiao Mo received the admission letter from Bailu Academy.
Three months later, Xiao Mo needs to report to Bailu Academy.
Xiao Mo and Bai Ruxue were not in a hurry either.
The two of them traveled to Bailu Academy while sightseeing.
Xiao Mo took Bai Ruxue to see the thousands of temples in the State of Chu, climbed over green hills with her, and walked across rivers with her.
Along the way, the two of them walked and stopped, and it didn't seem like they were going to study at all.
When Xiao Mo and Bai Ruxue arrived at Bailu Academy, it was the day of registration, neither early nor late.
"Junior Brother Xiao, we meet again."
As Xiao Mo stepped into the mountain gate, he heard a woman's pleasant voice.
Shang Jiuli walked towards Xiao Mo with a smile on his face, his expression full of kindness.
"Hello, Miss Shang." Xiao Mo bowed.
"From now on, you have to call me Senior Sister." Shang Jiuli said happily, "I have always wanted a junior brother, and I didn't expect it to come true."
"What does Senior Sister Shang mean?" Listening to the other party's words, Xiao Mo vaguely guessed who his teacher was.
"From now on, you are Mr. Qi's disciple." Shang Jiuli said with a smile, "Including you, there are three of Mr. Qi's disciples. One is me, and the other is Senior Brother Lengmian. You also met him during the assessment."
"From now on, the three of us will study together." Shang Jiuli casually extended her slender hand and patted Xiao Mo's shoulder. "Don't worry, I will definitely take good care of you, Senior Sister."
Just when Shang Jiuli was about to take a step closer, Bai Ruxue pulled Xiao Mo behind her.
"stare--"
Bai Ruxue stood in front of Xiao Mo, her peach blossom eyes staring vigilantly at this beautiful woman who was extremely kind to Xiao Mo.
"Eh?" Shang Jiuli looked at the woman in the white dress with long silver hair and blinked, "Xiao Mo, is this your family? To think there's such a beautiful woman."
"Thank you!" Bai Ruxue was not happy at all when she was praised by the other party. Instead, she would not let Shang Jiuli get close to Xiao Mo like a protective person. "I am Xiao Mo's childhood sweetheart. We grew up together! Xiao Mo came to Bailu Academy to study, and I will take care of him!"
Shang Jiuli raised his head and looked at Xiao Mo, as if asking whether what the woman said was true.
"Exactly."
Xiao Mo smiled and nodded. Before coming to Bailu Academy, Bai Ruxue suggested that her and Xiao Mo's relationship be defined as "childhood sweethearts", and Xiao Mo did not refuse.
"Senior Sister Shang, let me introduce you. This is my childhood sweetheart, Bai Ruxue. We are from the same fishing village.
Ruxue, this is Mr. Qi's disciple. I met him once when I was taking the assessment."
"Hehe!" Bai Ruxue straightened her back and puffed out her chest, which was so low that her toes were not visible, as if she was declaring her sovereignty.
"I've met Miss Bai."
Shang Jiuli bowed and greeted him.
As a woman, how could Shang Jiuli not know what her childhood sweetheart Xiao Mo was thinking.
But Shang Jiuli didn't care, he didn't want to steal her man.
"Ruxue, senior sister is greeting you." Xiao Mo patted Ruxue's head gently.
"Hello, Senior Sister Shang."
Although somewhat reluctant, Bai Ruxue still bowed in return.
"Let's go." Shang Jiuli said with a smile, "I'll take you to your residence first."
"Excuse me, Senior Sister."
Xiao Mo bowed.
"You're welcome. After all, you are my junior brother. I will definitely take good care of you." Shang Jiuli said in a familiar tone.
"Hmph." Bai Ruxue puffed out her cheeks and glanced at Xiao Mo beside her.
Xiao Mo felt that he had suffered an unexpected disaster and could only pretend that he knew nothing.
Not long after, Xiao Mo and Bai Ruxue were brought to a villa halfway up Yumo Peak.
The yard is not big, with only two rooms and a small front yard.
But the courtyard is quiet and elegant, and has a sense of ink fragrance.
Shang Jiuli patiently explained to Xiao Mo, "This Yumo Peak is the mountain where Mr. Qi lives. The only people living on this mountain are me, Senior Brother Luo with a cold face, and you two.
I live in the north of the mountain, and your senior brother Luo lives halfway up the south mountain.
If you have any questions, you can always contact us.
Although your Senior Brother Luo is cold and aloof, as if everyone owes him a thousand taels of silver, he is actually a pretty good person."
Xiao Mo nodded, indicating that he remembered it.
"Come to think of it, since your name contains the word 'Mo', you really have a connection with Mr. Qi." Shang Jiuli turned around and handed the courtyard sign to Xiao Mo.
Xiao Mo did not take the sign actively.
Bai Ruxue glanced at Xiao Mo, accepted the sign for Xiao Mo with satisfaction, and thanked him.
Shang Jiuli didn't care about the couple's behavior: "Come on, Xiao Mo, I'll take you to see the teacher. The teacher will accept you as his personal disciple, but you have to become his disciple properly.
According to common sense, a teacher of his seniority needs to be treated with great fanfare.
But the teacher doesn't like these, so you just need to offer the teacher three cups of tea.
You don't need to feel constrained, our teacher is very casual, I believe you will like it too."
"Then thank you for leading the way, senior sister." Xiao Mo nodded, then glanced at Bai Rushue.
"It's okay, you go ahead. I'll just wait here and clean up the yard for you." Bai Ruxue said knowingly.
Although she was still a little worried about Xiao Mo and Shang Jiuli being together.
But Bai Rushue also knew etiquette and propriety, and it would be a bit rude if she went with him.
"Yeah." Xiao Mo looked directly at Ruxue, "I'll be back as soon as possible."
"It's okay, don't worry." Bai Ruxue smiled. "In this academy, I'm worried that you won't come back."
Xiao Mo smiled, said no more, and followed Senior Sister Shang up the mountain.
At the top of Yumo Peak, Xiao Mo met Mr. Qi and his senior brother.
Under the watchful eyes of his senior brothers and sisters, Xiao Mo offered tea to Mr. Qi and formally became a disciple of Mr. Qi's lineage.
Mr. Qi didn't say much to Xiao Mo. He told Xiao Mo to study hard and not slack off in the future. Then he let Xiao Mo go downstairs to rest and classes would start the day after tomorrow.
Afterwards, Senior Sister Shang took Xiao Mo to Bailu Academy to register, received the academy's sign, and explained the academy's rules to Xiao Mo.
Xiao Mo memorized them all in his heart.
"Regarding what I said, is there anything you don't understand? Or, if you have anything you want to ask, you can ask me."
Shang Jiuli asked before Xiao Mo was about to return to the courtyard.
Xiao Mo thought for a moment and bowed, "I am indeed curious about something and would like to ask you, Senior Sister."
"Junior brother, just speak frankly." Shang Jiuli was not afraid that his junior brother had problems, but was afraid that he had no problems.
If there is no problem with my junior brother, how can I demonstrate the usefulness of a senior sister like me?
"To be honest, Senior Sister, I grew up in a fishing village. I once saw a dragon going through a tribulation, but it ended up dying. I was deeply shocked. I wonder if the academy has any books about dragons going through tribulation. I would like to read them in my spare time to relieve my boredom." Xiao Mo's tone was slow and sincere.
"You've asked the right person." Shang Jiuli smiled. "Go to the third floor of the library. On the leftmost shelf are books about the Jiaolong and Snake tribes. Also, Senior Sister can tell you a little secret about Jiaolong."
"Little secret?" Xiao Mo asked curiously.
Shang Jiuli raised his lips and said, "Junior brother, do you know why it is so difficult for dragons to survive the tribulation now?"
