Chapter 748 How strong is he?
“In ancient times, there was a demon with a snake body and nine heads, which could eat countless people. It was named Xiangliu. Wherever it went, it ravaged the country and brought great disasters to the world. The ancestors of the Onmyoji have gone through many hardships. , cast the Tushan Sword, and killed Xiangliu's physical body, but failed to kill his spirit. The spirit of Xiangliu was immortal and condensed into crystal, which is what I just said.
These things are not secrets in themselves, so he said it very straightforwardly.
"Thank you, Great Elder, for clarifying my doubts." No. 93 bowed and saluted.
Xi Can waved his hand: "Do you still have any questions?"
The onmyojis looked at each other, but no one said a word.
"Since there is no doubt, I will take you to your residence first, and we will talk about other things tomorrow." Xi Can waited for a while, but when no one spoke, he moved forward.
Everyone followed him and quickly arrived in front of a five-story wooden building. He pointed at the wooden building and said: "When I explained the Yin and Yang Lao to you, those who were removed from the list by you The onmyojis have already vacated the house where they previously lived. You can just go to the corresponding room with your waist badge in hand."
"Yes" everyone responded in unison.
Xi Can waved his hand and disappeared in a bright beam of light. When the remaining light of the light beam dissipated, Qin Yao, who was among the crowd, suddenly found that everyone's eyes seemed to be focused on him...
"Why are you looking at me?"
The colleagues in front of him moved out of the way and said respectfully: "Elder brother, please go first."
Qin Yao: "..."< br>
The privileges belonging to the powerful Onmyoji were instantly reflected after Xi Can left.
And this privilege is only an insignificant aspect of it, and the title of senior brother is another aspect.
Although the colleagues in the Yin and Yang dormitory do not have a common master, because they study in the same dormitory, they are regarded as senior brothers among their peers.
Currently, he is the head of the ten elites and the senior brother of all his colleagues. All kinds of benefits and treatment are only under those of the chief executive and the elders.
After a while, Qin Yao climbed to the fifth floor with a wave of greetings, and opened the door to the largest of the three rooms with his waist card. When he saw it, he saw an empty space.
It can't be empty. There are only three rooms on this floor.
Room No. 1 is the largest, and the two companion rooms are slightly smaller. When Tadayuki has emptied all his belongings, this room is like a spacious hall.
"This is why the onmyojis are trying their best to climb up."
Qin Yao came to a row of windows, stretched out his hand to open the window in front of him, and looked down with the help of the height of the fifth floor. In the entire Yin Yang Residence, the most eye-catching thing was the golden light released from the forbidden area.
"Huh~"
Suddenly, he heard a strange voice coming from somewhere. After carefully sensing it, he couldn't tell where the voice came from.
Qin Yao's heart moved, and he guessed that the voice was most likely coming from Xiang Liu, so he did not dare to answer easily, lest he cause panic when he first arrived.
Inside the golden pagoda.
In the scale stone.
The monster with a snake body and nine heads floated above the black pool, looking at the figures on the fifth floor from a distance, its eyes flickering.
Trying to suppress its eager emotions, it dived into the black swamp and never appeared again.
The person looked unfamiliar, and he should be a newcomer who had just entered the dormitory. If he contacted the other party rashly without being sure of his likes, dislikes, and needs, he was afraid that the other party would turn around and tell the top management of Yin and Yang dormitory.
Wait, wait.
He has been waiting for so many years, and the seal has been loosened, even in a few days.
Nothing happened all night.
The next day.
Qin Yao was meditating on a futon when he suddenly heard a knock on the door.
"Elder brother, are you up?"
Shortly afterwards, Tadayuki's voice sounded outside the door.
Qin Yao slowly finished his work, stepped to the door of the room, stretched out his hand to open the wooden door: "Is there something wrong?"
"I'm here to call you for a morning meeting." Zhongxing saluted. .
"Morning meeting?" Qin Yao looked surprised.
Tadayuki nodded and said with a smile: "The Onmyoji of Yin Yangliao will gather in front of the main hall every morning to listen to the great elder reading out today's tasks. Those who are interested can take on a certain task and get certain rewards. This is the morning meeting. The main content."
"Do you have to go?"
"It's not necessary. If you have nothing to do, you can go and listen to see if there are any interesting tasks." .
"That's it." Qin Yao bowed his hands and thanked him: "Thank you, Junior Brother Zhongxing."
"Senior Brother, you're welcome." Zhongxing said respectfully.
Yesterday's battle really defeated him.
Soon, the two of them gathered in the crowd and followed many Onmyojis to the main hall. They saw Xi Can, wearing a short black crown and an ink-colored robe, already waiting here. When the time came, , regardless of whether everyone had come, he opened his mouth and said: "Thirty miles outside the eastern suburbs of Pingjing City, go out Gangs with shikigami appeared, robbed and blocked official roads, and Jin Wuwei couldn't control them, so they sent a message to us. "
"I do."
< br>"I'll come."
More than a dozen people responded.
At this time, Qin Yao gently pulled Zhong Xing and asked secretly: "Yesterday, when Elder Xi Can took us past the library, he said that we can freely browse the books in the library. Is there any Yin Yang magic in these books? "
Zhongxing nodded slightly and said in a low voice: "Of course there is. It can be said that most of the books in the collection are Onmyoji, but there are no secret techniques in it, only some very common techniques. I personally feel that it will not be of much help to you, senior brother."
Qin Yao: "I know, but I still want to take a look. ”
The relationship wasn’t to that extent, so Tadayuki didn’t try to persuade him much, and ended the topic with a slight smile.
After burning incense, half of the colleagues in front of the main hall left. Xi Can glanced at Qin Yao, who remained unmoving, and said to the remaining people: "Today's morning meeting is over here. The meeting is over!”
With an order, the crowd dispersed. Qin Yao walked slowly in the slightly gloomy Yin and Yang House, and finally stopped in front of the library pavilion.
"Senior brother, waist badge." The colleague guarding the third-floor book pavilion said respectfully.
Qin Yao untied the wooden sign from his waist, handed it to the other party, and asked casually: "Are there usually many people reading books?"
After carefully checking the waist sign, the young guard respectfully Handed back: "Not much, it can even be said to be extremely Few. Because currently there are no brothers in the dormitory who need to lay the foundation. Most of them lack secret skills, which are special skills, but there are none in the XZ Book Pavilion."
Qin Yao held his belt and nodded. Said: "Thank you."
"You're welcome." The young guard was flattered and said quickly.
Qin Yao smiled at him and strode into the library...
A few days later.
Lian Xisheng called Xi Can to the small building in charge of the office, and stood in front of the stone railing on the third floor, looking at the sea of clouds: "What has Qin Yao been doing these days? Why do you feel that his presence is so low? "
Xi Can stood upright behind the master, and said respectfully: "He stepped into the library on the second day after entering the dormitory, and has not come out so far."
Lian Xisheng said in surprise: "With his strength, is he still worthy of those yin and yang arts in the library?"
Xi Can: "I heard from the patrolling disciples that he takes them very seriously."< br>
Lian Xisheng: "..."
"In charge of the case, do you need to monitor him?" Xi Can asked proactively.
Lian Xisheng shook his head: "That doesn't have to be the case. Maybe his unique skill is to integrate the best of hundreds of schools of thought, or maybe he lacks some foundation..." In a blink of an eye, it was the end of the month.
Lian Xisheng summoned Xi Can again and asked: "Qin Yao is still in the library?"
"Yes."
Mentioning this slightly mysterious thing Elite disciple, Xi Can looked a little weird: "According to the patrolling disciples, he practices in the library, as if he uses the library as his own practice room."
Lian Xisheng: "..."
Is this guy working too hard?
"He must be present at the first month competition." Shao Qing, he said in an unquestionable tone.
Xi Can nodded: "It has been arranged. Tomorrow morning, Zhongxing will go to the library to call him."
Lian Xisheng pondered for a moment and said: "How strong do you think he is? ?”
Xi Can recalled the scene of Qin Yao’s victory over Zhongxing, and said hesitantly: “He should have the strength to become an elder in the liao.”
"What's the rank?"
"Tenth, or ninth, Yi'an is still very strong, Qin Yao may not be able to beat him." Xi Can said.
Qu Yian, the eighth person in the dormitory.
Lian Xisheng shook his head: "You underestimate him."
Xi Can was surprised: "The boss thinks he can be in the top five?"
"I don't think you can beat him." Lian Xisheng said.
Xi Can: "..."
Are you serious?
After taking a closer look at Lian Xisheng's face, Xi Can found in depression that the person in charge of the case seemed extremely serious.
On July 1st, there was a big competition in the dormitory. Qin Yao was practicing as usual in the library pavilion.
"Thing, thump, thump, thump, thump."
Like a gust of wind, Zhongxing ran up to the third floor and shouted to the figure sitting cross-legged by the window: "Senior brother, do you know what day it is today?"
Qin Yao was so focused on practicing that he didn't care about the passage of time. He immediately asked: "What day?"
"It's a grand competition in the dormitory!" Zhongxing was speechless.
Qin Yao was not very happy to go, so he asked, "Is it okay if I don't go?"
"I'm afraid it won't work." Zhongxing spread his hands and said: "The big competition in the dormitory and the morning meeting in the dormitory are not the same concept. If you don't go to the morning meeting, no one will say anything. If you don't go to the big competition without a legitimate reason, you will be regarded as war-shy."
Qin Yao sighed and stood up slowly: "Well, I hope I won't just watch after I go."
Zhongxing: "..."
I won't just watch... ...You still want to meet a challenger.
Later, the two of them arrived in front of the main hall of the liao one after another. This time it was Qin Yao's turn to stand at the head of the second to last row. In front of him were the eight elders, and in front of him were the great elder and the palm leader. case.
The same as last time, Lian Xisheng's opening remarks were still so concise. After two sentences, the disciples in the sect turned to look at the challenger. The battle was about to start, and there was a sense of solemnity that a storm was coming.
"Ah..."
Qin Yao glanced at this month's challengers and couldn't help but yawn.
No wonder the sunshine today warms my soul, bringing out the tiredness from days of hard training.
If he wasn't suspected of showing off, he really wanted to stand here and sleep for a while.
In the blink of an eye, the whole morning passed by.
There is no strong person in the challenger team this time. Among the top ten elites, only the tenth place was challenged by the tenth place last month. The key is that they have not won the challenge yet, so the entire The challenge seems very boring.
In fact, this is the norm in life.
“Aren’t you going to take action today?”
Lian Xisheng quietly appeared beside Qin Yao and asked softly.
Behind him, the eyelids of the great elder Xi Can and Luo Jie, the crane tail among the elders, almost jumped at the same time, and their hearts slowed down by half a beat.
What the First Elder wanted to do was to say that Qin Yao was stronger than him. If he hit the mark and the other party challenged him, wouldn't his status above that of the entire liao come to an end?
What Luo Jie thought was that even if Qin Yao did not challenge him, if he challenged any of the eight elders, he might be eliminated.
Just like the poor guy who was squeezed out of the top ten elites.
After thinking about their respective situations, the two of them had the same understanding of the current environment: taking charge of the case was purely making trouble.
No, to be precise, I am doing it to myself!
"In charge of the case." Qin Yao saluted first, and then said with a smile: "I am very satisfied with the title of the head of the top ten elites."
Lian Xisheng said with a smile: " Although he has a great title, he is still a subordinate, so how can he be comfortable as an elder? "
After all, he gave Xi Can some dignity and did not mention the position of the great elder.
Qin Yao paused slightly and said in a gentle voice: "I come to Yin Yang Lao not for fame and wealth, nor for freedom and ease, but to practice and study the Eight Classics of Zheng'er."
Lian Xisheng: "When you talk about practice and study, do you mean soaking in the library and practicing the most basic Yin and Yang techniques?"
Qin Yao laughed and said: "A friend of mine told me, There is no onmyoji that is useless in the world, it just depends on how the person uses it and whether he can use it."
Lian Xisheng looked at him thoughtfully, and his body disappeared in an instant.
Qin Yao also wanted to leave, but the nine elders were all watching here, so he could only watch his eyes and nose, his nose and heart stuck in place, wandering in the sky.
Staying up until the evening, the competition finally came to an end as the night fell. Qin Yao thought, and countless white lights suddenly appeared around his body. The white light formed a beam of light, taking him away through the air and flashing to the book collection. In the pavilion.
The combination of space escape technique and hexagram positioning is really easy to use...
Many times better than I expected.
Three years later.
Tadayuki and his two children stepped into the main hall of Onmyoji and bowed to Lian Xisheng who was standing in front of the statue of the Onmyoji sage: "Greetings to the master."
"Greetings to the master." Case." The boy and girl who came with him saluted.
"Who are they?" Lian Xisheng glanced at the two children and sensed a demonic power in the boy's body.
"They are the two children I rescued during this mission. They are homeless and have nowhere to go. In order to survive, I had to bring them back." Tadayuki said.
Lian Xisheng said quietly: "You know, Yin Yang Residence is not a charity house and does not support idlers."
Zhongxing lowered his eyes and said: "I support them."
< br>Lian Xisheng: “Don’t you want a future for yourself?”
Zhongxing sighed: "There are no shrines in Pingjing City. I can't just watch them become thieves, beggars, or even die somewhere."
Lian Xisheng thought for a while and said :"perhaps…… You can ask Qin Yao to help you."
Zhongxing thought: "Yes, I will take them to the library immediately!"
