I Just Won’t Play by the Book

On the fourteenth day after Qu Yangze formed the cocoon, the cocoon finally changed. It began to vibrate irregularly, and some small cracks appeared.

These changes all represent that Qu Yangze is about to emerge from the cocoon.

"Xiao Beiran, Xiao Beiran, it jumped again just now!" Shi Fenglan, who was observing the silkworm cocoon, shouted loudly, expressing her excitement at the unknown.

But Jiang Beiran ignored her, because at the moment he was immersed in his own world writing a sad score.

Using music to mobilize the target's emotions is a higher level of performance than putting the target to sleep.

For this reason, Jiang Beiran needs better repertoires, and compared to the existing repertoires, Jiang Beiran thinks that the tunes he composed are better.

While splashing ink and swiping his hair, Jiang Beiran, who wrote another stanza, looked up and found Xia Lingdang standing beside him, as if there was something he wanted to report.

"What's wrong?" Jiang Beiran asked.

"Master, Brother Zhu wants to visit you at the door."

'It took a long time. ’

"You go and tell him that I'm busy, let him wait."

"Yes." Xia Lingdang responded and retreated outside the cave.

When Zhu Shangzhen saw Xia Lingdang coming out, he immediately saluted, "I'm sorry."

Xia Lingdang shook her head quickly after hearing this, and then said, "The master is busy, he asked you to wait a little longer."

"Thank you." Zhu Shangzhen said gratefully.

Through this period of time, the image of the black-robed senior in his heart has grown taller.

In addition to his subordinates being able to ride around on the dark side, Zhu Shangzhen also discovered that the black-robed seniors have the ability to "sound through the ears".

The first time he heard the beautiful sound of the qin, Zhu Shangzhen exclaimed in his heart that the sound of the qin should only be found in the sky, and it is impossible for ordinary people to play such a beautiful tune.

Therefore, Zhu Shangzhen instantly decided that this must be the senior in black robe playing.

Later, on the third day, although the senior was still playing the same tune, Zhu Shangzhen still shook his head when he listened to it. He just shook... and fell asleep.

Zhu Shangzhen, who woke up from a dream, didn't feel anything unusual, and once again felt that the senior's piano skills were superb, just like a fairy.

But when he fell asleep to the beautiful sound of the piano for several days in a row, he began to feel that something was wrong.

Because he found that even if he wanted to stay awake in the music, it was difficult to do it. If he was a little inattentive, it was already night when he opened his eyes again.

After that, it was like this several times in a row. It was not until the first two days that he used his profound energy to strengthen his spirits, and finally he managed to stay awake, but when he went down to the first floor, he found that a large amount of strange beasts had already slept in the hall. .

The snoring was one after another.

From that moment, Zhu Shangzhen was sure.

The black-robed senior is also a very powerful mysterious musician.

So far, Zhu Shangzhen has been completely convinced by this mysterious black-robed senior.

In terms of cultivation, he was able to tame the eighth-order murderer Qiongqi into a pet.

In Xuanyi, formations, beasts, and Xuanle all have very deep attainments, and they are definitely among the best.

Such a big man, he had never heard of it before, it really shouldn't be.

‘Could it be the top powerhouse in the neighboring country? ’

Zhu Shangzhen thought about it, and this was the only possibility. After all, he had been a loose cultivator in Zeng country for so long, and he knew more or less about the big people. Otherwise, he would not know if he hit the iron plate.

After thinking for a few days and nights like this, Zhu Shangzhen strengthened his determination to join the senior black robe.

This is not only because of the formidable power of the black-robed senior, but also because he believes in fate.

He has come this way, no matter how dangerous the desperate situation is, he can save it from danger, which makes him always think that God is very favored by him.

This time, he was in danger again, so he took the opportunity to save his black-robed senior as the will of God. As long as he joins this senior's door in the future, his cultivation career will definitely usher in a new peak.

After firming up this idea, all Zhu Shangzhen has to do is to fight for it with all his strength. His performances in the previous two times were extremely bad. It can be said that the old man in black robe has lost all his impressions. If he wants to save it, he must be extremely diligent. Just do it.

As time passed, and at night, Zhu Shangzhen finally waited for the long-lost figure.

"I hope you won't let me down again this time."

Hearing the first sentence of the black-robed senior, Zhu Shangzhen's heart instantly rose to his throat.

"Sure enough, the previous two seniors had a very bad impression of me..."

After sighing, Zhu Shangzhen replied calmly, "Junior is stupid, please forgive me."

"So what are you going to say to me this time?"

With a "pop", Zhu Shangzhen knelt on his knees on the ground and said, "Junior Zhu Shangzhen, from Qing'an County, Dongde County, Huizhou, his father is a local parent official, his mother is a commoner. , I embarked on the road of loose cultivation at the age of eight, and many opportunities and ups and downs along the way made me who I am now."

After Zhu Shangzhen finished speaking, he took out a booklet from his arms and held it in both hands to the senior black robe and said, "There are all the opportunities I have encountered in my life and many sect friends I know. Please take a look at the seniors."

'Oh? I also learned to write my own resume, not bad. ’

Glancing at Zhu Shangzhen with relief, Jiang Beiran took the booklet and opened it.

This turn, although only

After taking a few glances, Jiang Beiran could already feel between the lines how rough the experience of this loose cultivator was.

But it was accompanied by so many opportunities that Jiang Beiran was a little dazzled.

'Damn it... This luck is definitely at the protagonist level, every time a desperate situation can be turned into good luck, it's outrageous. ’

But judging from Zhu Shangzhen's birth and family, he doesn't seem like a protagonist.

It's too smooth, there is no hatred or hatred in my life, where should the word "protagonist" be used.

When Jiang Beiran closed the booklet, he saw that Zhu Shangzhen handed over several Qiankun Rings and said, "This is a rare treasure collected by the younger generation in various mysterious places, and the seniors are invited to accept it with a smile."

Jiang Beiran was not polite, and reached out and took the Qiankun ring.

At the moment when the divine consciousness was injected into the Qiankun ring, he discovered that this Qiankun ring is not simple, not only has a huge storage space, but also contains a certain amount of spiritual energy inside.

This means that the items in this Qiankun ring can still be nurtured by spiritual energy, and it is simply unnecessary.

'Good guy... there are indeed a lot of babies. ’

Just a random observation, Jiang Beiran found that there are quite a lot of treasures in this Qiankun ring, and it can even be said that it is a bit outrageous.

There are even a lot of them that are in the top 100 on the rare spectrum, and they are even numbered.

As a loose cultivator, being able to collect so many treasures is enough to prove the power of his talent.

"Nice tribute, I will arrange the introduction of you to the Lin family as soon as possible. As for the entry, you have yet to investigate."

Zhu Shang, who was kneeling on the ground, trembled, and said, "Yes, this junior must do well."

"Then do you know why I didn't accept you directly, but wanted to observe you for a while?"

Although Zhu Shangzhen already had the answer in his heart, he still didn't answer confidently: "Junior is stupid, please ask senior for guidance."

With a sigh, Jiang Beiran replied: "What I need is a capable subordinate who can help me with things, not a naive boy who needs me to teach everything, just a small blow will make you dare not come to see you for nearly a decade. Me, what can I expect you to do with such a character?"

Although Zhu Shangzhen had already guessed that his evaluation on the black-robed senior's side must be very low, he couldn't even think of the reason why his evaluation was so low.

The reason why he came to worship again after so long was because he wanted to show that he made the decision after careful consideration, but he never thought that in the eyes of the seniors, he was inferior... No, it should be said that it is quite unbearable. .

"Junior knew it was wrong."

"No, you don't know yet." Jiang Beiran shook his head and continued: "You still have a lot of shortcomings, go to Lin's house to exercise, and come to me when you feel that you can really be on your own. Of course, if you arrive at that time. There are better options available."

When Zhu Shangzhen heard this, he quickly said, "Since this junior has decided to join the senior's sect, he will definitely not vote for others. The junior swears here, if..."

"Okay, okay." Jiang Beiran waved his hand and interrupted Zhu Shangzhen's words: "Don't be so full, learn to leave a way out for yourself."

"...Yes, the junior has been taught."

Nodding his head, Jiang Beiran took out a stack of talisman paper from the Qiankun Ring and handed it to him: "I will send you out now, and after you have dealt with the things you need to deal with, fold the talisman paper into a paper kite and give it to me."

In fact, Zhu Shangzhen doesn't want to go out now. He still wants to stay here to discover more of the magic of the black-robed seniors, but now that the seniors have issued orders, and he does have some things to deal with, he responds.

"Yes, the younger generation obeys."

...

After a stick of incense, Zhu Shangzhen, who was already standing outside the formation, couldn't calm down for a long time.

It was the way the senior sent him out that shocked him.

‘This must be an opportunity given to me by God, and I must seize it! ’

With a clenched fist, Zhu Shangzhen flew into the air to confirm his position a little and then flew towards the south.

Returning to the dark and poor lair, Jiang Beiran was about to go upstairs when he saw Shi Fenglan rushing down and shouting: "Xiao Beiran, Xiao Beiran, the silkworm cocoon is moving again! This time the movement is very big! "

"understood."

With a promise, Jiang Beiran followed the slope to the second floor, and before he entered the cave, he heard the movement inside.

Walking into the cave, Jiang Beiran found that the huge silkworm cocoon was already covered with cracks, and he could see that it was not far from breaking the cocoon.

Taking a step forward, Jiang Beiran used his mental power to inspect Qu Yangze in the cocoon.

'Um? ’

Surprised in his heart, Jiang Beiran discovered that the old king who originally lived in the heart with the emperor had moved out and lived in the lungs closest to the heart. Of course, the king who originally lived in the lungs was naturally The old king was driven out.

'Is this to allow the Emperor Gu to enjoy the nutrients alone? Really great love. ’

After sighing, Jiang Beiran checked the other organs again and found that nothing had changed much. Everything should be back on track, otherwise Qu Yangze would not be able to break out of the cocoon.

At this time, An Mingqiongqi, who heard the movement, also ran up. After seeing the silkworm cocoon full of cracks, he turned his head to look at Jiang Beiran and asked, "Will the silkworm cocoon burst open, are you going to leave?"

"Yes." Jiang Beiran nodded.

"I flipped a coin."

"Oh? What was the result?"

An Mingqiongqi turned around after hearing this

Seriously, "I want to ask you a favor."

"Tell me."

"I want to ask you to go out and help us see if there is any suitable place for us to live, otherwise we will definitely be unable to move."

There is nothing wrong with this concern of dark and poor.

Based on their cultivation, if they were in the country of Sheng, they would definitely walk sideways, but in the country of Zeng, these strange beasts are simply moving treasures, and they will be peeled off by the cultivators attracted by the "scent" in minutes. .

Without waiting for Jiang Beiran to answer, An Mingqiongqi said again: "Of course, you won't let you help with this work in vain, this is the reward."

After An Mingqiongqi finished speaking, he rolled up a crystal clear boulder with his tail and put it in front of Jiang Beiran, "This is something in my body, I don't know what it is called, but you humans seem to like it."

Taking the round stone, Jiang Beiran glanced at it and said: "You dug it out of your body?"

"Well, if you want it, I can dig another one."

"..."

'You are a stone! Just dig! ? ’

After complaining, Jiang Beiran used his mental power to inspect the body of An Mingqiongqi, but he really didn't know much about the body structure of alien beasts, so even if he saw it clearly, he didn't know what An Mingqiongqi dug up. Where is the boulder.

‘Good guy, this is my blind spot of knowledge. ’

Jiang Beiran looked at it carefully for a long time, but couldn't match this cobblestone with any of the precious materials on the rare book.

But the aura contained in this cobblestone will not deceive people. He believes that this cobblestone is very useful whether it is used for alchemy or making magic weapons.

"It's not difficult to find out where you live, this one is enough."

After listening to this, An Mingqiongqi retracted the claws that were about to pull out his chest, and nodded his huge head towards Jiang Beiran: "Thank you, friendly human powerhouse."

Putting the round stone into the Qiankun Ring, Jiang Beiran said, "So you still want to go out, don't you?"

"Well, I want to help Big Brother fulfill his unfulfilled wish."

"I hear you admire your elder brother."

"Of course, eldest brother is the most powerful beast I have ever seen, and he has taught a lot of things, and... also..."

As An Mingqiongqi spoke, the last conversation between his eldest brother and him, and the figure who rushed towards the human camp without hesitation, could not help but emerge in his mind.

"Ugh..."

Thinking about it, An Mingqiongqi couldn't help but let out a whimper. Shi Fenglan, who was on the side, heard it and quickly came over and rubbed its big head. Although she couldn't understand what it said to Xiao Beiran, she could feel the strangeness. Chi was really sad at this moment.
