Jade of Rebirth

Chapter 22 Qingtong Academy

Because of the cold weather and heavy snowfall, the road was very difficult to walk, so the carriage walked for a long time before stopping.

Yuli followed Yuqing out of the carriage, and Yuqing thoughtfully helped him put on the hood:

"It's windy outside, don't catch a cold."

"Yeah." Yu Li smiled at him, then raised his eyes to look at the building in front of him, and saw that it was a mansion-like place with the four characters "Qingtong Academy" written on it on a plaque, and there were two black characters at the door. The guards in clothes were guarding the door, and what came into view was the shadow wall, which blocked people's sight, and they couldn't see anything in the academy.

"Let's go." Yuqing led him in, Yuli hurriedly followed, only to see Yuqing said to the two guards: "This is my cousin, the third son of Prime Minister Zuo Yugong's family, I hope you will accommodate me."

The two guards looked at Yuli, then nodded and let them in.

"It seems that the people who come in and out here are not strictly checked?" Yu Li couldn't help asking.

Yuqing nodded: "As long as there are acquaintances to bring it, it's fine, but there are many hidden guards inside, and ordinary people don't want to make trouble inside, so the gate is not strictly controlled."

The two talked and walked inside.Yuli saw that the inside was similar to a mansion, except that the building in the middle looked like a restaurant, and there were ordinary courtyards and wing rooms on the side.Because of the heavy snow, the academy was also very deserted, with almost no one there.

"Li'er, come with me, there are so many corridors here, be careful if you get lost." Yuqing turned her head and said.

"Yeah." Yuli followed Yuqing through the winding corridors, and saw pavilions and pavilions on both sides of the corridors, as well as elegant things such as plantains, Xiangfei bamboos, etc. If it wasn't for the cold weather, maybe you could still see cranes, right?

The master of this academy is indeed Fengya.

The two were walking, and when they passed a room, they saw an old man, dressed in rags, sitting on the threshold of the room, drinking and looking at the snow outside.

Yu Li originally planned to walk over without any concern, but he didn't expect to take a look at the old man's appearance, and he suddenly remembered a person.He stopped in his tracks, turned his head, and subconsciously called out, "Qi Gong?"

This Duke Qi is Qi Liuyi. He is the most famous calligrapher in our time. His real name has long been unknown. , so he called himself Qi Liuyi, and others respectfully called him 'Qi Gong'.He is a grotesque person, and if someone is pleasing to the eye, just write him a picture, and if the other party is willing, he will give him a tael of silver.If you don’t like someone, and you insist on his original work, then give him 1 taels of silver, and he will write it for you.

He was addicted to alcohol by nature, and he was wild and unrestrained, often dressed in rags, ordinary people would only think of him as a down-and-out old beggar when they saw him, but no one would know that he was the famous calligrapher Qi Liuyi.The reason why Yuli knew him was because in his previous life, when he was looking for teachers to learn calligraphy, the first thing he thought of was Qi Liuyi, but when he went to find Qi Liuyi, Qi Liuyi was drunk and was about to fall asleep , felt that Yuli disturbed his sleep, so he asked the boy to drive Yuli out, and he would ignore Yuli's begging.So Yuli had no choice but to go to Fu Qishi for the next best thing.

Qi Liuyi turned his head, and saw a very feminine and handsome young man, wearing a crescent white brocade suit and a cloak, with round eyes, as if surprised and very cute.He also stared at him and said, "How do you know me?"

Yuli smiled: "Of course I know you, isn't it the old man who was kicked out by his wife and swore not to see each other until he died!" Qi Liuyi had a beloved wife Zhou Shi in his life, but when he was young because of The romantic affair made the Zhou family lively, so the Zhou family kicked him out and swore that "we will not see each other until we are in the underworld".No one knows about this, but in her previous life, Yuli had done her homework specially in order to learn from her teacher.

"Li'er, don't be rude!" Yu Qing quickly grabbed Yu Li's arm, motioning him not to talk nonsense.You must know that Yuxuan made a fool of himself last time because he regarded Qi Liuyi as a beggar and was teased by Qi Liuyi.

"Hey, don't pull him, kid, let him talk!" Qi Liuyi sat up straight and asked solemnly, "How do you know that my wife won't see you unless you talk about hell?"

Yuli patted Yuqing's hand, signaling him to rest assured, then looked at Qi Liuyi, and said triumphantly, "Of course I know, not only do I know this, but I also know how to help you reunite with Mrs. Qi."

"If Uncle Ying Kao taught Zhuang Gong the method of digging tunnels, don't tell me, my wife won't agree!" Qi Liuyi said disdainfully.

"Of course not." Yu Li shook his head, and said with a smile, "I can tell you, but you must accept me as a disciple after you succeed, can you?" He finally met Qi Liuyi, so he must hurry up This opportunity is at his door.

Qi Liuyi immediately looked at Yuli with disgust, and said, "You little baby, you are not worthy to be my apprentice."

Yuqing also felt that Yuli was going too far, so he helped to smooth things over and said: "My younger brother is young and ignorant, Duke Qi should not blame him." Saying that, he bowed to him.

Yuli glanced at him, then looked at Qi Liuyi, a little angry in her heart, thinking that she couldn't be your apprentice in the previous life, and she couldn't be your apprentice in this life, what kind of unfamous person, hmph, I don't care about it!He said: "Okay, okay, then I won't be too high on you, and you can continue to be your lonely family!" Then, he pulled Yuqing and walked forward.

Now Qi Liuyi was in a hurry, got up quickly and said: "Don't go, don't go!"

Yu Li stopped and asked him, "What's the matter? Think I'm worthy to be your apprentice again?"

"Forget it, forget it, you little baby can't come up with any good ideas anyway, you talk about it first!" Qi Liuyi compromised, his old face still showing disgust.

"However, if it succeeds, you must accept me as an apprentice. You have to prove it without proof." Yu Li turned around and came back.

"Hey, you little baby, are you here to lie to me?" Qi Liuyi immediately became vigilant.

"Who would use this method to lie to your words." Yu Li laughed, and said, "I write it myself, you just sign your name."

"Okay." Qi Liuyi immediately got up and walked into the room.

"Li'er..." Yu Qing was a little worried, and looked at Yu Li worriedly.

"Brother Qing, don't worry." Yu Li smiled at him, and followed into the room.

Qi Liuyi had ready-made pens, inks, papers and inkstones in his room, so he handed the pens to him: "You write!"

"Okay." Yu Li took the pen, held his sleeve with the other hand to avoid getting ink, and slowly wrote down a contract.

Qi Liu looked down on Yuli at first, and felt that he was not worthy of being his apprentice. It was all because he saw that Yuli was young and didn't seem to have any talent for learning calligraphy. Who knew that Yuli's writing would completely impress him... Yuli His handwriting has five points of Yan Zhenqing's charm, and two points of Fu Qishi's handwriting!It doesn't look like the words of a thirteen or fourteen-year-old boy at all!

He immediately said angrily: "You have already worshiped Fu Qishi as your teacher, so I won't accept you anymore. Haven't you heard of 'one student can't enter two schools'? You look down on me, and your master knows it. I'll be angry too!"
