"Yes, I would like to listen to the teachings of the four elders." Meng Jueguang responded hurriedly, overjoyed.
He had gone all out to find Lin Yi in exchange for the little jade, just to try to please Zhao Yu, and Zhao Yu was the direct grandson of Elder Zhao Hongbo. Now it seems that all his efforts have really been in vain. Being able to leave his name in the heart of Zhao Hongbo, the fourth elder, will save him decades of struggle in the future.
After receiving the praise happily, Meng Jueguang turned his head and frowned at Lin Yi and said: "Junior brother Lin Yi, what are you doing here? Why don't you go to Pavilion Master Lu quickly? Do you really want to make the fourth elder angry?"
Lin Yi glanced at him and was about to speak when the senior brother beside him gritted his teeth and rushed to help him out: "Fourth Elder, Senior Brother Meng, Junior Brother Lin is not that he doesn't want to call Pavilion Master Lu, but that today is the public guidance day. This opportunity is really rare. As a newcomer, he really can’t miss it. Please forgive me, Fourth Elder! Why don’t you ask the disciple to call Pavilion Master Lu? Is that okay?”
Lin Yi glanced at Brother Kubi gratefully. He was taking a big risk to stand up and speak for himself at this time. He might be angered by Zhao Hongbo. For a low-level manager like Kubi, this was a big risk. No joke.
"Who are you?" Zhao Hongbo glanced at Senior Brother Kubi. He had only heard Meng Jueguang's name from his grandson Zhao Yu. Under normal circumstances, he would not pay attention to a small steward of Yingxin Pavilion, let alone know about it. The names of these people.
Senior brother Kubi took a deep breath and said: "Back to the fourth elder, my disciple is called Ku Zhongle, and he is also the senior brother in charge of the newcomers in Qingyun Pavilion."
"Rejoice in hardship? Enjoy hardship in hardship? Haha, this name is a bit interesting!" Zhao Hongbo laughed noncommittally, and then said righteously: "Since you know that you are the senior brother in charge, you should understand that your task now is to maintain order among the newcomers. Is there any reason to leave one's post without permission and go out to call for help? Let's let this Lin Yi go!"
Zhao Hongbo thought for a while and felt that even if he agreed to Xu Lingchong's request, it seemed unreasonable to deny Lin Yi's right to ask questions. It would damage his image as the fourth elder of Qingyun Pavilion, so he said again: "Don't worry, I will reserve your question. Even if you come back late, I can make an exception and answer three questions for you alone."
Although Zhao Hongbo's words sounded as magnanimous as his name, to know the significance of the Open Mentoring Day to newcomers, it was more than just answering his three questions. What's more important is that you can also listen to the elders answer other people's questions. Only by comparing can you gain insights. This is a very important lesson for newcomers. This lesson is even worth ten years of hard training by yourself.
Once Lin Yi agreed, it meant that he could still ask questions. But it was no longer possible to hear questions and answers from other newcomers. In a sense, such a loss was even greater than the fifteen pieces of spiritual jade that Meng Jueguang had lost before.
Brother Kubi wanted to persist, but Lin Yi stopped him with his hand. Because it is no longer necessary for Lin Yi. As long as he can retain the right to ask three questions, the rest is not a problem.
"Thank you, Fourth Elder, for your understanding. Disciple, we will set off now." Lin Yi bowed his hands to Zhao Hongbo and turned around.
Hey, Meng Jueguang on the side raised his chin at Lin Yi proudly upon hearing this, the amusement in his eyes was obvious.
Even Lin Yi, a hob meat with thorns all over his body. In front of Zhao Hongbo, the fourth elder, there is no resistance at all. Relying on the huge gap in status and strength, he can trick you to death with just a few words and leave you speechless at all!
An hour later, Lu Bianren and Lin Yi finally rushed back to the Yingxin Pavilion. At this time, the three elders had finished instructing the newcomers in the three major pavilions, and they all gathered in the main hall to exchange their cultivation experiences.
Lu Bianren and Lin Yi looked at each other, and their hearts suddenly skipped a beat at this scene. It was clearly created deliberately by someone!
Imagine if Chu Pengzhan came to inspect the school when he was in Songshan No. 1 Middle School, and all school leaders, teachers, and students were present. Then, in full view of everyone, the only latecomer in the school arrives late. What's even worse is that this person has been unanimously rejected by the vast majority of teachers and students in the school. How will you feel at this time?
If you were a normal person, your only thought at this time would probably be to quickly find a crack in the ground and crawl into it!
But Lu Bienjin didn't. With almost no expression on his face, he walked directly towards the three elders in the middle with his head held high.
Lin Yi followed him and secretly praised in his mind. Although this Senior Brother Lu looked as weak as the hard-working Senior Brother, the dignified Third Pavilion Master of the Welcome Pavilion was ignored and turned into a borderline transparent person, but this man's own magnanimity and courage, But it is far beyond comparison.
Lu Bianren looked weak because he kept giving in. When one's own strength is insufficient, choosing to give in is far wiser than choosing to fight, and it also requires more courage.
But in this critical situation, we can no longer retreat, because if we retreat at this time, it will not be a concession, but a retreat.
Lu Bianren knew very well that once he flinched even a little bit, what awaited him would be disaster. Not only can I not stay in the Yingxin Pavilion, I will also not be able to stay in the Qingyun Pavilion in the future.
Therefore, even if he knew that there was a violent storm ahead, he could only move forward at this time, with his head held high.
"I have met three elders. Disciple Lu Bianren is late to pick me up. Please forgive me for the three elders." Lu Bianren bowed and saluted. He did not mention the reason at all in his words, nor did he make any excuses. He was sincere. Please forgive me.
clever! Lin Yi couldn't help but praise in his heart. At this time, if Lu Bianren talked about the reason for being late, he would be inferior. Not to mention that Hu Yunfeng and others would definitely shirk the responsibility. These three superior elders I have no interest in caring about why you, Lu Bianren, are late.
In their view, it is your fault, Lu Bianren, to be absent on such an important day. If you still want to make excuses, it will be adding to your mistakes and adding to your crimes!
But now Lu Bianren said nothing and just sincerely admitted his mistake and apologized. In this way, even if the three elders were dissatisfied, there would be nothing more to say. After all, they are only late once. If they hold on to their pigtails because of this, it will appear that they are too careless and not considerate enough.
Xu Yuanzheng in the middle glanced at Zhao Hongbo and said nothing. After all, Lu Bianren is from Qingyun Pavilion, so it is better to let Zhao Hongbo, the internal elder, handle it, which can be regarded as giving him face.
"That's all, answer the question first, and we'll talk about Lu Bianren later!" Zhao Hongbo snorted and waved his hand. After all, in front of so many outsiders, he couldn't let others laugh at him. (To be continued.)
