Yu He is a pretty good person. Although his friendship with Gong Mengbi is official, it goes beyond official duties.
After all, after Yue Mansion returned from a great victory, there must be many things to take care of and he would be extremely busy, but he still came to report to Gong Mengbi and share his joy.
This is what true friends do.
Gong Mengbi was grateful and prepared to treat him better, instead of just treating him as a tool.
Especially recently, they have been frequently given overtime work. Although it is indeed official business, if they are asked to work overtime, they must express their gratitude.
He clapped his hands and said to himself: "My brother Kang has almost recovered. It's time to ask him to host two banquets, one to thank friends and one to thank ghosts and gods."
As for whether Fatty Kang agrees or not... they are all brothers, how can we disagree?
The news that Yu He brought to Gong Mengbi was very exciting. The last such good news was when the gods descended to earth and extradited the black dragon to the north.
Good things come in pairs when you have the Tao.
Before Gong Mengbi had time to return to Wuhuan Peak to discuss the banquet with Fatty Kang, the talisman in the spiritual platform jumped up and down, reminding him of the summons from Tianhu Academy.
Gong Mengbi could resist such a call now, but obviously his ability was not used at this time. He only returned to the room, lit the small golden stove, and fell into a dream with the bird cigarettes.
The haze was lingering, Gong Mengbi opened his eyes, and saw a dignified and beautiful woman looking at him with a smile. Her long hair was tied behind her head with a gold ribbon, swaying behind her.
"Dr. Huang!" Gong Mengbi was overjoyed, "I haven't seen you for a while."
Dr. Huang smiled brightly, "It's not like you don't know that Yue Mansion has been very busy recently, and Tianhu Academy has been working with them, and they haven't rested. Another magic star has come to the world, and I'm so busy that I only have time today. Handle your business."
Gong Mengbi smiled and said, "What are you going to do with me?"
Dr. Huang led him forward, and he saw flowers blooming, as beautiful as spring, and the garden was full of beautiful flowers.
"Of course it's a good thing. If it's a bad thing, I'll catch you."
Gong Mengbi said: "That's really a lot of joy."
Dr. Huang asked: "Any other happy events?"
Gong Mengbi said: "Didn't Yue Mansion return from a great victory?"
Dr. Huang glanced at him in surprise and said, "You are quite well informed. Yes, this is a great event."
Gong Mengbi said: "I have a little friendship with the Yin officials of Yue Mansion. I listen to what they say."
Dr. Huang said happily: "You have given me a good face. You are the first among the students in your group to obtain the Taiyue Talisman."
Dr. Huang led Gong Mengbi to Fang Yuan and saw the Jade Fairy and Goddess in the courtyard walking slowly. Behind her were the Blue Bird Divine Envoy and Xun Jijiu.
Seeing Dr. Huang from a distance, Fairy Qingyao whispered: "The little fox is here."
Several people looked over. Gong Mengbi suddenly felt a little psychological pressure, but he still smiled on his face. When he came closer, he bowed and saluted: "Gong Mengbi, the health officer, has seen the mountain chief, the wine sacrificer, and the divine envoy."
Xun offered wine and said, "No need to be polite."
Gong Mengbi stood up straight. Xun Jijiu looked him up and down, and suddenly showed surprise: "Eighth Grade...how long has it been?"
Fairy Qingyao laughed: "If he didn't have this eighth-level Taoist practice, would he have the courage to act recklessly?"
It was clear that the divine envoy was making fun of him, but Gong Mengbi did not dare to say anything more. He only looked at his nose and his heart, pretending not to hear.
Xun Jijiu smiled and said: "I can't speak of being wanton, but I am indeed very courageous."
"Gong Mengbi, you have done a lot of good things recently." Xun Jijiu looked at him and said: "First, he united with the Yue Mansion's divine soldiers to kill the evil spirits and make the Taishan Empress famous; then he killed the evil tiger Ban Yin and saved the evil spirit. It resolves ghosts and grudges, and demonstrates the spiritual response of Empress Taishan. He also established a fox courtyard to educate the foxes and share the worries of Empress Taishan."
"You've only taken office a few months ago, and you already have such abilities. It's really more outstanding than I imagined."
One section of Xun Jijiu was hidden, and it was Gong Mengbi who planned to kill the city emperor. Of course this matter could not be hidden from Xun Jijiu. The sword used by Gong Mengbi to kill the city emperor used the private seal of the Jade Fairy Goddess.
Since it was a private seal, it was not suitable for public explanation, and Gong Mengbi also acquiesced that this incident did not happen.
After being praised by Xun Jiji, Gong Mengbi became more and more humble: "I just know that Taishan Empress protects all living beings and has a spiritual response to all the nine states. I have been blessed by the Empress, how can I not show her spiritual response?"
Xun Jijiu didn't see any trace of arrogance in him and was even more satisfied.
"Goddess, this little fox has lived up to your attention and has accomplished something." Xun Jijiu said with a smile, "It should be rewarded to show that Tianhu Academy has a clear distinction between rewards and punishments."
The Jade Fairy Goddess glanced at Gong Mengbi and said: "It's indeed a reward. It's just about exorcising evil spirits and subduing demons, but it's the Fox Courtyard. I think it's quite interesting."
"Gong Mengbi, you have to run the business well. If you can teach some good seedlings and change the trend with education, I will make all the fox societies in the world learn from you."
Gong Mengbi was surprised and happy. This was to use Wuning County Huziyuan as a pilot project. If it can produce results, it will be promoted throughout the country immediately.
Even if Gong Mengbi does nothing, he will become famous all over the world.
With the Jade Fairy and Goddess attaching such importance, Gong Mengbi promised: "We will live up to Shan's long-term promise and run the Huziyuan well."
The Jade Fairy Goddess nodded and said, "Okay."
She said to Xun Jijiu: "It's up to you to decide the reward."
Xun Jijiu glanced at her and then at Fairy Qingyao. Fairy Qingyao blinked and expressed that she was helpless.
This gave the old fox a headache. If he was rewarded too much, it would be difficult to convince the public. If he was rewarded too little, he would be the person favored by the mountain chief.
Xun Jijiu immediately transferred his troublesome problem to Gong Mengbi and asked: "You have now reached the eighth level of cultivation quietly. You should have been promoted to your next level, but you have only received the ninth level talisman, and your time is still short." , I will not be promoted for the time being. When you complete the Fox Courtyard, I will allow you to be promoted to the second level in a row and become a seventh-level fox master."
"As for today, it depends on what you want."
Gong Mengbi was stunned. He did not feel that the old fox was playing football, but felt that it was very considerate. He thought for a while and said: "I am worshiping the moon now to practice, but after all, my magic power is low and I lack the method to protect myself. I wonder if Xun Jijiu has any Guidance?"
"How to protect yourself?" Xun Jijiu groaned and said, "I remember that you have practiced the wind-calling technique very well. There is an Eight Winds Curse in the courtyard, which may be just what you want. It's just that it's difficult to practice the Eight Winds Curse. …”
But after taking a look at Gong Mengbi, Xun Jijiu felt that he might not be able to hold him back, so he said, "You can try practicing first. If you have any questions, ask your master for help."
Gong Mengbi looked at Dr. Huang, who nodded, indicating that he could teach.
Gong Mengbi said: "Thank you for Xun Jijiu's teaching of the Dharma. It's just that the practice of the Eight Winds Curse may be difficult to master for a while. It can relieve long-term difficulties, but it cannot relieve temporary hunger."
Xun Jijiu's eyebrows twitched and he said, "What do you mean?"
Fairy Qingyao suddenly interjected: "I remember that there seems to be an Eight Winds Bottle matching the Eight Winds Curse in the treasure house. It is originally a magic weapon used to assist in the practice of the Eight Winds Curse. It also has some magical uses for body protection. How about just... Give it to him?”
Xun Jijiu felt a pain in his heart and looked at the Jade Fairy Goddess. The Goddess had no expression and looked at Dr. Huang, who silently turned his head to the side.
He looked at Gong Mengbi again, hoping that this boy would be more sensible. Unexpectedly, Gong Mengbi looked expectant, as if he couldn't see his heartache.
Xun Jijiu said with difficulty: "Okay, then I will give you the Eight Winds Bottle."

Done, there was enough time tonight, but Shui Qun got stuck while discussing what name to give Gong Mengbi.
