Chapter 105: Disciple Selection
lder. To be honest, if you disregarded the way Fu Zimu had gotten with her—a method she couldn't accept—and didn't treat him as her legitimate husband, just a lover, he wasn't actually that bad.When n...Qin Luoyan came back to her senses and took the white cloth handed over by Er Ya, "I was thinking, at this time, Yun Tianzi gave me a letter of introduction, the timing is so coincidental, does he also want me to participate in the selection But the letter clearly said that I can directly enter the sect to worship the master."
However, she didn't believe in coincidences. Yun Tianzi had never brought it up before, and now, coincidentally, she was introducing him just as the disciple selection process was taking place. She simply couldn't believe there was no connection between the two.
"Miss, what shall we do" Erya put the washcloth she had used to wash her face back into the hot water and scrubbed it.
Qin Luoyan shrugged, a rare hint of mischief in her eyes. "There's no other way, is there If you have an introduction letter, just take it up the mountain. I'll meet any soldiers with swords and stop any water with earth. My family's daughter isn't without ability, it's just a matter of putting in more effort."
That night, Qin Luoyan didn't sleep well. In her dream, she always felt someone chasing her. She ran and ran until she was cornered at a cliff edge. She thought she was going to fall off, but in the next instant, she found herself in Wuxuan Prince's Mansion. Fu Zimu appeared before her, extending his hand towards her. His large palm spread out before her...
In the morning, when she woke up, she couldn't help but sigh. Had she been worn down by that pervert Fu Zimu Even after leaving him, she was still living in his shadow As for whether it was because she missed him that she dreamed of him, that was absolutely impossible.
Qin Luoyan brought Er Ya to the restaurant in front of the inn for breakfast. The two ordered a basket of steamed buns filled with soup and vegetable porridge. They had just taken a few bites when they saw a young man with a simple face next to them being scolded by the shop assistant until his face was flushed red.
"I'm not refusing to pay, my money bag is lost! A meal only costs a few coins, how could I possibly run away from the bill" The young man wore a rough hemp shirt and had a tall and straight figure. However, his face was rather ordinary, and if he were in a crowd, it would be hard for people to notice him at first glance.
The shopkeeper crossed his arms and sneered, "I've seen your type before. You think a simple breakfast is worthless, but you're not the first to try and stiff me. I see a few every month! Don't waste my time. If you don't pay up, you're not leaving our tavern! I've dealt with your kind before."
That young man angrily slammed his fist on the table, "You're calling me a liar"
"I'm talking about you. What do you have to say for yourself If you can't come up with the money, are you anything but a liar" The shop assistant was used to dealing with these kinds of customers, so he didn't hold back at all.
That young man was in a hurry, searching his whole body over and over again, but he couldn't find even half a copper coin. In the end, with no other choice, he gritted his teeth and took off a jade pendant from his neck. The pendant wasn't of very good quality and wasn't worth much money, but it was more than enough for a meal.
He wanted to give the jade pendant to the shop boy to pay for his meal, but he reached out and then pulled his hand back. “Why should I give you a discount”
Saying that, he looked around and then saw Qin Luoyan with a gentle expression. He walked straight over to her and bowed to her, "Miss, although this pendant isn't priceless, it's worth a dozen taels of silver. I wonder if you'd be willing to exchange it for some silver My request isn't high, just give me one tael."
To get ten or more ounces of silver for just one or two ounces is a steal that anyone would find worthwhile.
But Qin Luoyan stared in astonishment at the young man's face. This scene, no matter how she looked at it, felt like a part of a scam. Her brows furrowed, and she didn't immediately agree.
"Girl, I've suffered a big loss. Just two taels of silver, this is a lot of scribbling. If you don't want to, I'll go find someone else." The young man said as he was about to walk to another table.
Qin Luoyan thought about it, then still called him back, "Wait a minute, I'll pay for this meal." It wasn't a big deal to settle the bill before a meal, even if he was a fraudster she wouldn't lose much. If he wasn't a fraudster, she would have done a good deed.
That young fellow, upon hearing this, immediately turned back. "Miss, you're exchanging my pendant for a single meal That's such an incredible price!"
She, with the heart of a gentleman, has taken the stomach of a villain.
Qin Luo'yan shook her head. "I don't want your pendant, keep it. Consider this meal my treat."
The young man was taken aback, then quickly put away the jade pendant and bowed to Qin Luo'yan: "I will remember your help, Miss. When I have the opportunity, I will definitely repay you."
Qin Luo'yan raised her lips in a subtle curve, choosing not to respond to his polite greeting. "There will be opportunities in the future" meant nothing more than they wouldn't cross paths again. She didn't care and saw no need to reply.
After the young man left, the shopkeeper spat at his back.
Qin Luoyan took Er Ya back to the inn after breakfast and checked out. Then she found a carriage and headed for a small town on the outskirts of Yu City. The final address on the letter was in that town. It said that as long as they reached the town and presented the letter, someone would take them to Tiangji Pavilion.
When they arrived in the designated town, they found that there were also many outsiders on the streets. Several of them had previously stayed at the same inn as them. It seemed that these people had also come here to wait for the Tianjigong disciples' selection.
She and Er Ya got off the carriage and walked to the only restaurant in town. As soon as they reached the door, a man in black stepped forward to stop them. “Miss, this restaurant has been booked by our Tianji Pavilion today. We can only accommodate those who are attending the Tianji Pavilion disciple selection. Please go somewhere else,” he said.
"Elsewhere" Qin Luo'yan frowned, "There's only one restaurant in this town. Where else would I go to eat"
"This... we can't interfere with that." The man in black shook his head regretfully.
Qin Luoyan glanced at the tavern and found it was almost full of people, ranging from elderly men in their sixties and seventies to children as young as twelve or thirteen. It seemed that the influence of this Tianjige was indeed not to be underestimated.
"What if I said that I'm here to participate in the disciple selection as well" Qin Luoyan suddenly smiled, her stunning beauty causing the black-clad man to momentarily lose his composure.
By the time the man in black came to his senses, Qin Luoyan had already lifted her skirt and stepped onto the stairs. "Hold on, miss! This is not a joke! You're messing with our Tiangji Pavilion. Let me tell you this upfront, even if you are a woman, we won't show you any mercy! You said you came to participate in the Tiangji Pavilion selection, did you receive an invitation from our Tiangji Pavilion"
Qin Luoyan turned her head slightly, her steps already inside the tavern. She smiled faintly: "I don't actually have an invitation, but I wonder if this letter of introduction will be helpful"
When she spoke, she took out a letter from her bosom and handed it to the man in black.
