Why am I a villain and still have my own jokes?

Linjiang City is worthy of being the imperial capital of the Wolong Kingdom. Wherever you see it, there are flowers blooming everywhere, singing and dancing.

The buildings along the street are decorated with carved beams and painted buildings, and they are antique, but this street is not dull—pedestrians chat and laugh, drinkers punch their fists, vendors shout, and there are endless carriages and horses.

This is a majestic, profound, and vigorous city, worthy of the name of Linjiang Wolong.

Compared with the Changling Sword Gate, which is far away from the mundane, mysterious, noble and deserted, Ling Yao is actually more attached to this place full of fireworks in the world.

Although it is said that a person who has reached a great level of cultivation must devote himself to studying and practicing hard, but Ling Yao thinks that he has not yet had such an awareness.He is a big ordinary person, although cultivation has its fun, but the ordinary eating and drinking piao... no, this is not allowed.He also doesn't want to be left behind when eating, drinking and having fun.

Linjiang City is a good place where many people who have the same wishes as him gather and can satisfy all kinds of "vulgar" wishes in the world.

He wandered around the shops in the city first, bought some odds and ends, and then went to the Jixiang restaurant mentioned in the letter with Xiao Ji Nian to attend the appointment.

The restaurant is also very lively.

The lobby was full of people, all gathered around the stage on the first floor, waiting for the good show to start.

Ling Yao just glanced at it, turned around and told the waiter the house number, and followed the waiter up to the private seat on the second floor with his hands behind his back.

Xiao Er pushed open the door and made a "please" gesture, then bowed his head and backed away.And the man in the black cloak on the seat saw that he walked in so majestically, he immediately waved his hand, and slammed the door shut with all his might.

The man lowered his voice, with some dissatisfaction in his tone: "Why did you come here like this?"

Ling Yao "swaggered" towards the empty seat opposite him, sat down without looking at the other party, crossed his legs, supported the table with one elbow, and dragged his cheeks, looking like a hooligan :

"What, what else do you want me to do? A chicken in the left hand and a duck in the right?"

"You are so ostentatious! We are meeting in private!" The other party said anxiously, but deliberately lowered his voice.

Ling Yao just stared straight at the other party's face which was mostly covered by the cloak, and the other party also remained silent and stalemate.

In the end, Ling Yao couldn't bear it anymore, raised his foot and kicked at the opponent:

"Xiao Ji Nian, are you an idiot?! It's just a meeting between us, why is it like a joint meeting of the black forces!!"

"Oh, let me go, why did you start beating people!"

The second idiot in the black cloak on the opposite side immediately jumped up, ignoring the fact that the hood flew behind his back, so it was important to run away first.

"It's for atmosphere! Atmosphere!"

"The atmosphere is XX! You are dressed so wretchedly, people think that Shenlong Academy and Changling Jianmen are really incompatible, and even the disciples below are so nervous to meet each other." Ling Yao was angry and funny.

Why is there such a bad guy around him?It made it difficult for him to be serious.

"Oh, forget it, even the little wish of an old friend is not willing to satisfy, must have found some little hoof outside, don't want me."

Xiao Ji Nian pretended to sigh, and secretly glanced to see if Ling Yao still wanted to hit him, then silently moved himself back to his seat,

"For the past year, I have kept an eye on that distant cousin of yours every day, and have written to you to report the news without complaint. Why is my life so hard..."

Ling Yao rolled his eyes: "Come on, it's true that I'm asking you for the news. Don't tell me you won't keep an eye on him if I don't ask you? That's a 12-year-old genius at the Danyang realm. Are you not staring? Why do you come to ask me for credit for such a trivial matter?"

Xiao Jinian rubbed his hands together and smiled.

The friendship between the two of them was due to Yin being alone, lying in the same shop, and listening to music in the same building (we will not talk about our youthful and frivolous past).

Xiao Ji Nian brought news from various sources to Ling Yao, and Ling Yao often collected practice materials for him on weekdays, there was no question of who ordered who or who owed whom.

What he said to Ling Yao was naturally just a gag, and both of them knew it well.

It's just that the joke is over, it's time to talk about serious things:

"I'm also the leader of the White Fish Gang in the main hospital anyway, and I don't know much about the branch. Those individuals will enter the main hospital in the future, so how can I seize the opportunity and get them into my pocket?

"It's you, you are obviously my cousin, but you still ask me for information, you want to say that you two have nothing to do? Hehe..."

Ling Yao was not surprised at all, Xiao Jinian could see the filth between him and Ling Linhan.

He is a small leader who has been making a living in the general hospital——White Dragon Fish Clothes, what an ambition!It's also not upright, Ling Xiao's stubbornness is no match for him.

And given the relationship between the two of them, he didn't intend to hide it from Xiao Jinian:

"There are some contradictions. His father, Ling Tianyi, was murdered by my second uncle. His Hengnan branch has had a hard time these years, so it's not surprising that he misses the Lord's family."

Xiao Jinian also didn't think there was anything wrong with Ling Yao telling him about the Ling family's affairs, instead he sneered:

"Seeing that you care so much, it's not just thinking about it, I'm afraid it's because you want to kill him soon. It's your second uncle who is soft-hearted. Let alone a rare genius like Ling Linhan, even a fool should be eradicated. "

Ling Yao shook his head: "Cut the weeds and roots, to put it lightly. You are eating enough for one person, and the whole family is not hungry. My Ling family here is a big mess. Things are done too badly, and the people below are afraid. It's even worse. We're not a gangster demon sect, we should always take care of the overall situation and buy people's hearts..."

Xiao Jinian curled his lips, but didn't continue talking.

When he said soft-hearted just now, he didn't mean the head of the Ling family, it was clearly Ling Yao himself!

If it wasn't for Ling Yao still cherishing talents in his heart, how could he be so tolerant if there was a stinky kid who dared to yell at him to beat him, and even had great hostility towards him all the time?

However, Xiao Ji Nian did get here by himself, and there is no one who needs to compromise and tolerate.Unlike Ling Yao's situation, the things to worry about are naturally different, and I don't know if Ling Yao's thinking is more beneficial to the development of the Ling family.

That being the case, when encountering such a thing, he would naturally not open his mouth to say whether Ling Yao did something wrong.

"I don't care about the messy things in your family. It's just that Ling Linhan is really evil. I'll see his speed. In a year or two, he might be able to enter our general hospital!

"Originally this kind of genius, people in our general hospital must be scrambling for it. In the end, he and you still have such a thing, how dare I accept it..."

Ling Yao sighed: "There's no way, I've got you in trouble."

"What's the trouble? If I'm really determined to accept it, how can he treat me just because I'm your friend? That's childish!"

Xiao Ji Nian waved his hands again and again,

"I'm talking about him! This is an arrogant and restless master!

"I haven't told you yet, have I? Ling Linhan has already started to form a group in their branch, and he is the only one who follows the lead! If I get him into the White Fish Gang, when he grows up, should I be the leader of the gang or him?" Helper?"

"I'm not running this gang in the courtyard for charity. What I want is the power and status of the gang leader! What I want is to let myself live comfortably! Wouldn't letting someone like him in who I can't control come in be like leading wolves into the house? Come on!"

When Ling Yao heard this, he smiled wryly and sighed: "Not to mention, this kid really has a bit of leadership cohesion. Hengnan used to be a mess, but now he is vaguely the leader. And he is indeed not willing to be subordinate to others. Don't Let’s talk about you, if someone from the General Hospital offers him an olive branch, he will probably reject them all.”

Xiao Jinian raised his brows: "The new students form their own faction? That's a big taboo. Isn't he afraid that all the forces in the General Academy will unite to deal with him?"

"You think he broke the rules, and he still thinks he is unique." Ling Yao shook his head and said seriously, "A Nian, let me ask you, what do you think of Ling Linhan, the head of your academy?"

This refers to the senior management of Shenlong Academy, and even the royal family;

It depends on how Ling Linhan is, that is, how much he values ​​Ling Linhan and how he wants to train him in the future.

"This is a sensitive question for you." Xiao Jinian rubbed his chin, "Then I have to ask you first, did you ask this question yourself, or did you ask it for the Ling family, or...for Changling Jianmen? "

Xiao Ji Nian didn't finish his sentence, but Ling Yao already understood.

If he asked the question himself, then Xiao Jinian would naturally tell the truth; if he asked the question for the Ling family, he only had to answer the part related to the interests of the Ling family.

But if you ask for Changling Sword Sect... Although the relationship between Changling Sword Sect and Shenlong Academy is relatively harmonious on the surface, there are many open and secret fights behind the scenes-this Xiao Ji Nian can only answer half-truths and half-truths.

If it was for others, Xiao Jinian's question would be nonsense;

But for Ling Yao, as long as Ling Yao said anything, he dared to believe it—just like Ling Yao knew that he would never lie to himself.

Ling Yao bent his fingers slightly, and tapped the table with his knuckles: "Strictly speaking...not at all. I am asking for you."

Xiao Ji Nian:?You're playing a bit out of the ordinary.

Could it be that I have treated you like a brother for so many years but you have always wanted to sleep...

Seeing Xiao Ji Nian's bewildered expression, and the fact that he might have already begun to write a plot in his head that would not dare to be written in a [-]-word novel, Ling Yao immediately interrupted him:

"Shut up your wild thoughts! What I mean is, I need to know the situation in your academy so that I can help you analyze how to deal with that kid in the future!

"Anyway, I can't escape the fight four years later, as long as I don't fall behind, how your academy trains him really has nothing to do with me.

"But! Although we all don't think that's the case, if that brat really gets angry with you because of me, I can't worry about your two hundred and five!"

"Woohoo, a good brother, I know that you have me in your heart ..." Xiao Yannian changed his face for a second, and he burst into tears.

"roll!"

Ling Yao didn't really want to pay attention to this out-of-the-ordinary guy, so he turned his attention to look outside, unexpectedly, the stage downstairs had already started to babble and sing.

And Xiao Ji Nian had enough trouble here, so he began to talk humanly:

"Okay, I have to take precautions. But I don't know much, I just heard that Ling Linhan has something to do with a teacher from the General Academy. Coupled with his qualifications, it is a certainty that he will enter the inner courtyard of the General Academy in the future. matter.

"However, depending on the situation, the higher-ups probably have no intention of escorting him. They probably want him to train himself first in the outer courtyard..."

Ling Yao came back to his senses, suddenly Fulin came to him and said a name:

"Tian Xi?"

Xiao Jinian's side was chattering, and suddenly he heard Ling Yao ask the name, which made him jump up like a cat scared by a cucumber:

"My mother! How do you know our lord dean who never sees the end of the dragon! Wait, Ling Linhan has something to do with that?!"

Ling Yao: ...I really didn't know that this person was your dean.As mentioned by those who complained before, Ling Linhan saved his old man...

Anyway, many people in the Ling family knew that Ling Linhan got into Shenlong Academy after saving someone, and Ling Yao only said that he was hearsay, so he fooled Xiao Ji Nian.

However, what Xiao Ji Nian cared about was not the rumors that Ling Yao heard, but the content of the rumors:

"Principal Tian Xi's real name was originally known only to the teachers of the General Academy and a few of our students who had received guidance. If you can say this name, it already speaks volumes!

"What a ghost! How could he be so lucky to have a relationship with the dean! Fortunately, you reminded me! Afterwards, it doesn't matter which side he joins, or he has the courage to build a gang and set up a sect by himself. We are in vain The fish must never dare to provoke him!"

Xiao Ji Nian didn't care about continuing to chat with Ling Yao, and immediately used the communication stone to contact the subordinates in the imperial capital and assign tasks to them.

For those who were far away and could not be contacted directly, Xiao Jinian immediately ordered someone to write a letter to convey them.

The news that Ling Linhan and Tian Xi are related seems trivial, but in fact it may cause earth-shattering changes among the various forces in the General Academy.

The other party has a strong backer, and some of Xiao Ji Nian's original methods can no longer be easily used.There are also some issues that may cause disputes, which must be sorted out quickly, and the possibility of offending the dean must not be left behind.

As a result, there are many internal affairs involved in the gang, which is enough to keep Xiao Ji Nian busy.

It's no wonder Xiao Ji Nian is so nervous and cowardly, after all, the headmaster of Shenlong Academy is comparable to the status of the current master of Changling Jianmen in Jianmen.

If you offend the people he is guarding by the old man, then you don't want to hang out in it!

Ling Yao just put it aside and watched Xiao Jinian busy scratching his ears and cheeks, thinking, he never thought that the name "Tian Xi" would have such a great influence, and now he doesn't need to remind Xiao Jinian to pay attention to anything.

As for whether he can do something for Ling Linhan in the academy... With the dean supporting this kid, he can't do anything!

He can't let Xiao Ji Nian go to die!mad!

And if he wanted other people to fight Ling Linhan, he would have to pay more effort and price.With that time, why doesn't he improve himself? !

There was no solution here for a while, and no one paid attention to him, so Ling Yao completely turned his mind to the outside stage.Fen Dai's flowing sleeves fluttered, and her singing voice was melodious, making the audience intoxicated.

This is an old play, and it sings an old-fashioned script.It's all because of the good looks and good voice on the stage that so many people are willing to stay.There is also no shortage of people commenting on the boring plot.

After listening to a few sentences, Ling Yao realized what kind of story it was, so he shifted his mind and went to the audience.

A cultivator has good eyesight and strong hearing, and the audience can hear all the voices in their ears.He listened, and just heard someone say:

"That's it? What's so good about it? Isn't it just good luck?"

"It doesn't make sense, there are always people who like to watch this, want to fly on a branch and become a phoenix, dreaming..."

"If you want to say that the one in this play is probably a fool. The Ye family has a big business, how can he be able to break it? He wants to provoke the daughter of the Ye family. Isn't this causing trouble for the upper body!"

"There is always someone to set off that little Huadan, isn't it?"

Ling Yao was taken aback for a moment.

This kind of feeling...why is it so similar, how do those jokers comment on him and Ling Linhan?
