"Your Highness, please see, this is the Shrek criminal student who was caught trying to steal the secret blueprints of Mingde Hall."
Huo Yuhao stood behind the single-sided transparent glass, pointed at He Caitou sitting behind the bars, and introduced Xu Tianzhen.
"It's...unlucky. People like this have simply tarnished Shrek's honor."
Xu Tianzhen frowned and looked at He Caitou, who was in a very depressed mood, with disgust on his face.
Her words made Huo Yuhao ashamed. Shrek himself hadn't said anything yet, but the high-spirited Shrek, Princess Princess, started to fight against the injustice.
What is this called, convert fanaticism?
The reason why Huo Yuhao, who had avoided Xu Tianzhen, came to receive her this time was mainly because Jing Hongchen was summoned to the palace by His Majesty the Emperor. The idle Xu Tianzhen heard that he had captured a criminal student from Shrek and came here to visit.
Seeing that the leader of Hongchen Hall was not around, the little brother who was with him last time looked familiar, so he arrested Huo Yuhao.
As the saying goes, one thing brings another down. With Kong Deming's protection, Huo Yuhao can even ignore Xu Tianran, but he still has to respect Xu Tianzhen appropriately - this is a hornet's nest that attracts a group of people.
"Hmph, it's true that Shrek would send a student with such a moral standard for exchange. Is he looking down on us?"
Xu Tianzhen hugged her shoulders. He Caitou's performance made her very disappointed, and even the image of a Shrek student in her fantasy was shattered.
"The research results of Mingdetang were developed after I don't know how much money was invested by the royal family. I want to steal them all with a wave of my big black charcoal. If Shrek doesn't give a reasonable explanation, this matter will never end."
Huo Yuhao was almost moved by Xu Tianzhen's rare words of conscience - Her Royal Highness the Princess still had a clear conscience, and even knew she cared about the royal family's property!
Although she only hoped that Shrek would give a reasonable explanation without mentioning compensation, compared with her previous record of being able to set the palace on fire, she had made a lot of progress, which was quite gratifying.
He Caitou, you did a great job!
Good people will be harshly criticized if they do something wrong, as if they must be born saints, and bad people will be praised for correcting evil if they do a good thing. Xu Tianzhen's situation probably belongs to the latter. Huo Yuhao also decided not to give outsiders " Otherwise, it would be really difficult to maintain the character, and anyone can bully him.
On the other side of the single-sided glass, "Shrek Academy Prison Visiting Team Building" was currently underway.
He Caitou has now been transferred to the public communication office of the Sun and Moon Royal Soul Engineer Academy, temporarily escaping from the dark prison, but he doesn't know how long he can enjoy this intoxicating sunshine.
All exchange students from Shrek Academy and teacher Fan Yu came to visit him. The first person to visit He Caitou was the team leader Fan Yu. They were told that each person could only communicate with the suspect for a maximum of five minutes.
He Caitou held back the tears in his eyes, forcing himself not to talk about the bitterness and hardships of these days - although he was not physically abused, he was mentally tortured repeatedly.
"Caitou, don't be afraid. I have already notified the academy. The academy will do its best to rescue you and will not let you suffer unjust injustice. No one can bully Shrek's students."
Fan Yu sat on the small bench and encouraged He Caitou solemnly through the bars.
He Caitou looked at Fan Yu, whom he had always regarded as his father, and felt that thousands of words were stuck in his throat. But then I thought of Huo Yuhao's warning: "You know what to say and what not to say. I can still speak to Xu Tianran. When Shrek's teachers and friends visit the prison, you should decide what to do at your own risk." No matter how many grievances I had, I was forced to keep them all in my heart.
"I understand, I understand...Thank you teacher, I didn't say anything, I didn't say anything..."
Looking at He Caitou, who was listless and with tears in his eyes, Fan Yu reminded: "Silly boy, what do you mean by 'saying nothing'? You obviously have nothing to say at all!"
"Yes, yes, teacher, what you reminded is..."
"Don't be afraid. No matter what the Sun Moon Royal Soul Engineer Academy wants to blackmail, the academy will fight them to the end."
He Caitou suppressed the question "If you fight to the end, am I going to be locked up like this forever?", Teacher Fanyu's expectant and encouraging eyes made him unable to bear to say anything more.
As for more information, it cannot be announced verbally. It can only be exchanged through eye contact through tacit understanding between teachers and students. It would be a shame if the Sun and Moon Royal Soul Engineer Academy did not put recording and recording equipment in the communication office.
Fan Yu believed that He Caitou had understood what he meant, and his eyes could not deceive anyone.
He Caitou hoped that Fan Yu didn't see the guilt and apology in his eyes. He couldn't look back now.
After Fan Yu, there was Ye Xiaosheng who had encouraged He Caitou not to be nervous that day.
"Brother, you... ugh. If you had told me earlier, I wouldn't have talked to you that day... Forget it, it's too late to say anything now. Don't worry, since you are still from Shrek, everyone will stand by you completely. On your side."
Beibei, Xiao Xiao, Ling Luochen, Ning Tian...students came to visit He Caitou one after another.
"Caitou, I believe you are unjust. Shrek's pride makes us disdain this kind of theft."
Although Beibei said so, his tone and eyes let He Caitou know that the other party's attitude could only be described as doubtful.
"Caitou..."
After just saying this, she remained silent with him. It wasn't long before Xiao Xiao stood up to say goodbye. Her reaction was what made He Caitou the most heartbroken.
Why, why is fate so unfair to me...
"Caitou, I hope you are unjust. I hope this kind of thing was not instigated by the academy. Don't let me down again, okay?"
This is Ling Luochen.
As for Ning Tian...
"Caitou, we are all classmates, I will definitely support you. If there is anything the Nine Treasure Glazed Sect can do to help you, just say it and I will use all my power to help you."
Ning Tianhui kept saying nice words without any effort, but He Caitou knew that this meant that the Nine Treasure Glazed Sect had no layout in Mingdu, so what could it do?
Behind the single-sided glass, Xu Tianzhen, who had been eavesdropping with pleasure, asked Huo Yuhao curiously:
"Brother, what plans do you have for student Shrek? Tell me, and I can help you make some suggestions."
"Your Highness is overthinking. Mingde Hall's affairs have been so backlogged recently that everyone has been busy, and the hall master has been too busy to arrange for him. Everything they showed just now was true, and we didn't even have time for interrogation and dishes."
Huo Yuhao didn't dare to say anything to Xu Tianzhen, otherwise she would be in great trouble if she accidentally leaked it to Shrek.
And as Shrek's prison visiting team left, He Caitou felt desolate in his heart.
Everyone's reaction was almost exactly the same as what Huo Yuhao said to him in prison a few days ago, "Let me analyze it for you, Shrek's reaction is nothing more than the following..."!
He understood the look in Fan Yu's eyes, which was telling him not to admit the accusations about the academy under any circumstances. At most, he would only limit the situation to the level of the student himself. But He Caitou's worry about becoming an abandoned son only increased.
Shrek's rescue of him is still far from progress and remains a mystery. Negotiations from the academy headquarters are still unknown until the end of the year.
But he never wanted to go back to the prison where he never saw the sun all day long, and he didn't want to stay there for a second longer!
Huo Yuhao looked at He Caitou's torturous reaction and was extremely satisfied.
The reactions of the others are generally easy to guess, but the most important thing is Ning Tian's reaction - the high-sounding but impossible promise was a "prediction" he made to He Caitou himself, Ning Tian's words when he visited the prison This prediction fits perfectly.
I must also thank Miss Ning Tian for her cooperation with this magical stroke. Huo Yuhao used the excuse of "doing a small favor for the sake of friendship" to ask Ning Tian to consider the content of the exchange with Caitou according to his own wishes, and got Ning Tianhao's approval. The commitment was made without hesitation and the execution results were also very good.
This girl really didn't blink when selling her own people... I really don't know what the Jiubao Glazed Sect taught her. The friendship of classmates was easily thrown away in the face of the interests of the sect. I guess her heart was at least half black. .
When Xu Tianzhen saw He Caitou being taken away again to await trial, he couldn't help but curse again:
"Asshole, you have really stained his skin. You have discredited Shrek and offended me, Sun and Moon. I want to see who can protect you."
Huo Yuhao once again saw that women's perception was really accurate. Xu Tianzhen was the only one among all Shrek students to show malice toward He Caitou today. This girl could accurately find the most dangerous candidate when she showed her hatred.
"It's boring. I thought they would collude with some shady secrets, but it turned out that they acted as if they were innocent. The mistakes they made together were all the students' personal behavior and had nothing to do with the academy."
Huo Yuhao smiled: "Your Highness, this is our territory after all, and they know not to talk nonsense. But don't worry, the ins and outs of the matter are very clear, the evidence is conclusive, and all the original communication documents have been preserved. There's no way Lake could fire him and then claim it was the temps who picked him clean."
Xu Tianzhen nodded slightly: "Anyway, Shrek uses such students to represent our school, which really disappoints me. I haven't visited Mingde Hall for some days, so I will come today on behalf of my father." Check on the repairs. Lead the way, little brother... uh, what's your name?"
Huo Yuhao couldn't help but feel a little dumbfounded. He thought that after such a long time, his name would have been recognized by the top people in the Sun and Moon Empire.
"My name is Huo Yuhao, a disciple of Teacher Xuan Ziwen, and a disciple of Master Kong Deming Hall. Do you remember it, Your Highness?"
"Oh, I remember, you were the one who spoke rudely to Duke White Tiger... Tsk, your tone just now seemed a bit disrespectful. Did I think wrong, or were you protesting that I can't even remember a name?"
Huo Yuhao just pushed open the door of the observation room, shook his head with a smile and said: "Your Highness, you are overthinking. I am very respectful to you. How can I doubt your innate intelligence? If you want to inspect Mingde Hall, please come with me here." Come over here."
Xu Tianzhen followed Huo Yuhao out. Feeling a bit chilly on her shoulders for no reason, she muttered in a low voice: "I always feel like he is still scolding me...is it...forget it, my father said to be tolerant, No matter how disrespectful it is, it's nothing more than that, what else can you do..."
…………
The Hongchen Hall Master is in a pretty good mood now. Although he lost an insignificant duke title and was unluckily defended by the prince himself, and the emperor seems to have some thoughts about him, these are not worth the two great events today.
The first thing was that Huo Yuhao handed over the list of soul guide purchase intentions submitted by Ning Tian on behalf of the Jiubao Glazed Sect.
Jing Hongchen could see clearly that the soul tools on this list were not strictly embargoed. Although Ning Tian said that the price could be discussed later, Jing Hongchen did not intend to make money from this business. He just wanted to sell it at the market price. .
According to business practices, for a customer or a market, the first order is often the most difficult to close. As long as a zero breakthrough is achieved, subsequent cooperation will be much easier.
The Jiubao Glazed Sect is one of the top major customers in the whole continent. Although a mere two hundred intermediate soul tools are not a small sum of money, Mingdetang is not short of profit from this business, and the Jiubao Glazed Sect does not care about this. How much money is made from a business is determined by possible follow-up cooperation.
More importantly, the Nine Treasures Glazed Sect has an unusual political status in the Douluo Three Kingdoms that is not commensurate with its strength. It is of great significance to establish an official trading channel with the Nine Treasures Glazed Sect. It sets a precedent in the Douluo Three Kingdoms. For a person of Jing Hongchen's status, financial accounts are only secondary. If he hooks up with the Nine Treasure Glazed Sect, it won't matter even if it's free of charge.
Although at Ning Tian's request, both parties should keep this and subsequent transactions completely confidential and not publicize it, Jing Hongchen doesn't care about this and understands everything. In the future, this will be another contribution to him, and he doesn't know about Huo Yuhao and Ning Tian. How did they get connected inexplicably? I didn't expect results to come out so quickly. Even if both parties were interested, the progress would be too fast.
Running in both directions and conspiring together is the right thing to do.
The second thing is that my beloved little angel finally decided to become a disciple under the influence of this hall master!
The apprenticeship ceremony was not too elaborate, but the location was specially chosen in the office of the dean of the Sun Moon Royal Soul Engineer Academy who had survived the explosion. Only two insiders, Huo Yuhao and Meng Hongchen, were allowed to witness.
"My bones have been scattered for half my life, I have been bereaved for six years, I have been working alone, my life hangs by a thread and I almost died at the hands of an evil soul master."
"Fortunately, I am appreciated by the Hall Master. If the Hall Master will not give up, Gu Yi is willing to become the Master of Hongchen Hall!"
"Bah, bang, bang!" "Bah!" .
"Okay! Okay, okay! From now on, Bone Yi, you will be the closed disciple of this hall master!"
Jing Hongchen stepped forward and helped up Ye Guyi, who was bowing to become his master. He sighed with emotion that he had worked so hard for so long, and now he was finally done. The master-disciple status was determined, and what happened to Huo Yuhao was that someone else was trying to steal his love. It's impossible for things to happen again!
"Tomorrow I will take you to meet the master of the worship hall. He is Yu Hao's ancestor and the most powerful person in our Sun and Moon Empire. I believe he will also be extremely interested in your martial arts. From now on, you just need Just practice seriously and strive to achieve title recognition as soon as possible, and my master will take care of the rest for you."
"Also, remember to hide your Holy Angel Martial Spirit well. It is just a reminder for you now. You can learn from Yu Hao in this regard. He is an expert in this area... "
Hearing this, Ye Guyi looked at Huo Yuhao with confusion on his face, and the latter said with some helplessness: "Master, you sold me too quickly..."
"It doesn't matter. Bone Yi is already my closed disciple. From now on, you will be one of the closest people to each other. Sooner or later, you will have to understand each other about some things, and it will also make it easier for you to cooperate in the future."
Jing Hongchen continued: "Furthermore, the biggest secret of Bone Clothes, the Holy Angel Martial Spirit, has been told to you without reservation. Friends should be more honest with each other. Yuhao, you need to help her more, and her Martial Spirit Once exposed, the danger is much greater than yours."
"Okay... I understand. Don't worry, apart from Senior Meng, Sister Gu Yi and Sister Orange are very familiar with me in the academy."
Huo Yuhao silently lamented that the Master of the Hongchen Hall was really quick to abandon his old love when he found a new one. Moreover, it was not until Ye Guyi officially became a disciple that he introduced her to Kong Deming for more training and training. Protect this one.
Jing Hongchen frowned slightly after hearing the title "Sister Orange", but he still suppressed his emotions very well.
"Oh, that's right, this hall master may not be able to protect you at all times in the future. We need to make more preparations."
Huo Yuhao suddenly felt a sense of crisis in his heart.
Jing Hongchen slapped his head: "Blessing from the mortal world, yes, it's this thing. I haven't touched it for so long that I almost forgot about it."
Facing Huo Yuhao's half-smiling eyes, Jing Hongchen quickly added: "This is my most proud ninth-level defensive soul tool. The original one has been given to Yuhao. I will take the time to give it to him as soon as possible these days. You build another one. This thing is time-consuming and labor-intensive. Even if I do it myself, it will take several months to complete, but your safety cannot be careless..."
Meng Hongchen, who had been in mute mode, did not directly remind Jing Hongchen that the old man seemed to have forgotten an important person present. Instead, he pinched the back of Huo Yuhao's hand with a smile.
"Hall Master!" Huo Yuhao, who felt a pain coming from the back of his hand, immediately reminded him knowingly.
"Anything else?"
"You, old man, can't have an apprentice and forget about your granddaughter, and favor one over the other..."
Meng Hongchen nodded. Hongchen's blessing was brought to Huo Yuhao, and she reluctantly endured it. However, it turned out that Ye Guyi had not even thought of her after all the arrangements were made. How could she endure it?
"Okay, okay, okay... it will happen, Xiaomeng, don't worry." Jing Hongchen, who finally noticed his granddaughter's dangerous eyes, quickly put out the fire. Now he was afraid that the construction period for the next half year would be booked, but this time If the conditions are not agreed to, it is really inappropriate.
Meng Hongchen, who had successfully won the futures, was finally satisfied, but immediately frowned and whispered to Huo Yuhao:
"Yuhao, I always feel like something is missing. Have we forgotten anyone?"
"Huh? Is there any? The three of us present have all been arranged. No one is missing."
"That's true...but I just feel like I've forgotten something important. It's so strange."
…………
Shrek Academy, on the grass beside Poseidon Lake.
"Come on, brother Sanshi, I'll toast you again."
"As promised, it's just this one cup, you can't drink any more."
"Okay, okay!"
Xiao Hongchen and Xu Sanshi clashed their wine glasses and drank the contents in one gulp.
After half a year of training, Xiao Hongchen has fully integrated into Shrek's atmosphere - apart from intermittent harassment of Wang Yan and routine training and study, Xiao Hongchen changes his tricks to expand his network and make friends every day.
Among them, Xu Sanshi was the candidate that Huo Yuhao specifically told him to pay more attention to before leaving.
As a member of the original protagonist group of Shrek's Seven Monsters, Xu Sanshi was the only one among the seven who did not show up in this competition, which made Huo Yuhao puzzled.
At the beginning, Wang Yan only said that the Shrek Supervisory Team was ambushed by an evil soul master. Huo Yuhao took it for granted that Xu Sanshi should have been killed or injured in the explosion. However, when Xiao Hongchen arrived at Shrek Academy, he discovered that the situation was actually worse. This is even more outrageous.
Xu Sanshi, who had been hindered in his cultivation for several years due to physical injuries, quickly became familiar with Xiao Hongchen through his intentional contact. Good brother Beibei Run went to Mingdu thousands of miles away, and Xiao Hongchen and Bei Bei's character is so similar that it successfully fills Bei Bei's ecological niche.
Beibei traveled far and Tang Ya disappeared. Xu Sanshi's only acquaintance in the outer courtyard was Jiang Nannan. Although the latter's attitude toward him had softened a lot after the evil soul master's ambush incident, it was still unknown whether he would see the day when the old feud would be resolved.
In this case, the appearance of Xiao Hongchen suddenly made Xu Sanshi regain a familiar feeling. Although the positions of the two sides were very different, they had a lot in common.
The information about Xu Sanshi's identity that Huo Yuhao had previously "relayed" also made Xiao Hongchen very interested in him. Even in the Shrek Academy where there are many nobles, Xu Sanshi's life experience is among the best, and you can learn a lot about the past through him. Information about the Dou Ling Empire that is difficult to obtain due to distance.
"Xiao Hongchen, it's a pleasure to meet you at Shrek. Don't worry, based on our friendship, if we meet on the battlefield in the future, I will spare your life three times."
Xu Sanshi swung his wine glass and looked at the drink inside, feeling extremely righteous.
"Haha, then I have to thank you very much." Xiao Hongchen curled his lips, thinking about the fun suggestions Huo Yuhao had given him before, and then said:
"Don't worry, I think it is unlikely that we will meet on the battlefield, because the level of the Three Kingdoms' armies...maybe they will retreat faster than we advance. If the Dou Ling Empire is defeated in the future, with my status, At least I’ll keep you as the president!”
While the two were chatting, someone hurriedly stepped forward and delivered a letter sealed with fire paint.
"Xiao Hongchen, your urgent letter is from the Sun and Moon Royal Soul Engineer Academy!"
