Rabbit enclosure?
The confused Jiang He and Ding Feng finally followed behind Lu Ping and walked into the forest for a while. Gradually, they heard a sound in their ears. There were more than seven thousand rabbits. They couldn't stay quiet no matter what.
Zi Mu was also busy.
In three days, Lu Ping had become an expert in catching rabbits and he had become an expert in rearing rabbits. The third prince, Zi Mu, did not rest as much as Yan Ge had instructed him to. However, he felt that his specialty, the crying soul, had recovered slightly. He was busy in the rabbit enclosure when he heard footsteps behind him. Zi Mu immediately knew that it was Lu Ping's footsteps. He turned around and said, "You caught the rabbits so quickly?"
When he turned around, he was stunned. Lu Ping did not catch any rabbits but brought back Jiang He and Ding Feng, the two disciples of Alkaid Peak.
"Ahem …" Zi Mu was a little embarrassed. He only hoped that the two of them would not be so sensitive and put themselves in the shoes of the rabbits.
Jiang He and Ding Feng did not disappoint Zi Mu. They were not in the mood to pay attention to such things. From the moment they heard the noise of the rabbits, the two of them already had a strange look on their faces. At this moment, the over 7,000 rabbits in the rabbit enclosure appeared in front of them. They were so shocked that their jaws dropped.
Are these two fellows idiots? They actually made such a thing. Did they really want to count all the rabbits in the mountain? Did they really want to take care of the rabbits here for a month?
Their minds were in a mess. However, Lu Ping had already walked to the side of the rabbit enclosure and called out to Zi Mu, "We might have counted the rabbits wrongly. Please check."
"7,171 rabbits," Zi Mu said, "You have counted once and I have checked once. It should not be wrong."
"I guess so." Lu Ping nodded. Then he turned his head around and said to Jiang He and Ding Feng, "Then, please count it."
He looked very serious, as if he did not know that Jiang He and Ding Feng were deliberately making things difficult for him. He then waved at Zi Mu, "I will continue to look for rabbits."
"Okay," Zi Mu nodded but he was laughing in his heart. Lu Ping did not explain in detail but he could roughly guess what happened. Everything that happened in front of him must have caused the other party to kick an iron plate. Seeing Jiang He and Ding Feng's ugly expressions, Zi Mu was secretly pleased. However, he didn't dare to show it. He was just as serious as Lu Ping, as if he didn't know that the other party was deliberately making things difficult for him. He said, "You two, count it! Seven thousand one hundred and seventy-one. "
Jiang He and Ding Feng's expressions froze. Of course, they wouldn't really count. These rabbits were all trapped here. What else could a simple count prove? Even if Lu Ping and the others counted incorrectly, they could count again and correct them. It wouldn't be a big problem.
The two of them stood there in a daze for a while. In the end, Jiang He was the more mature one. He nodded and said, "Yes. Looks like it's not bad. Alright, we got it. "
After saying that, he gave Ding Feng a look and left without saying goodbye to Zi Mu.
"What should we do?" Ding Feng asked after they walked far away.
"Do they think this is foolproof?" Jiang He said fiercely.
"What do you mean?" Ding Feng was shocked. She had already realized what Jiang He wanted to do and was a little afraid.
"That's not good …" she said.
"If we really let them raise the rabbits like this for a month, do you think the academician won't know?" Jiang He said impatiently.
"Then … should we go and tell the teacher first?" Ding Feng said.
"Tell what? We asked them to count the rabbits, "Jiang He said irritably, but his words unintentionally revealed his inner thoughts. Clearly, he didn't just want to share the teacher's burden. It was because he realized that he had done something unnecessary. Perhaps it was because he was concerned about the number of rabbits on the mountain that prompted the two of them to come up with this method. Even if the cause and effect was not absolute. But what if the teacher thought this way?
The punishment method that he was so proud of had now become a trap of his own making. This made Jiang He's mind a little confused. Seeing that Ding Feng was about to say something, Jiang He waved his hand. "Don't argue. Let me think about it."
Ding Feng could only shut up, but her eyes were already filled with uneasiness. From the beginning, she was worried that it would be bad if Ruan Qingzhu found out that they were deliberately making things difficult for the two newcomers. But Jiang He's explanation was that the academician knew about it, but he wouldn't really care about it, so they could do whatever they wanted.
But now, Lu Ping and Zi Mu had really made a big fuss. If they really raised the rabbits like this for a month, how could Ruan Qingzhu not know? If Ruan Qingzhu knew that they were deliberately making things difficult for the newcomers. What would happen then?
Ding Feng didn't know what instructions their teacher had received from Ruan Qingzhu. But based on her understanding of the academician, he wouldn't be so narrow-minded as to deliberately target the two newcomers who had accidentally eaten her rabbits. At most, he would give them a small punishment so that they would remember. Their teacher was using a chicken feather as a token of authority! Now that things had come to this, how should they end it?
Ding Feng really wanted to quickly ask the teacher for instructions. But seeing that Shen He was willing, she could only anxiously wait at the side for Shen He to come up with an idea.
At the top of Alkaid Peak.
Ruan Qingzhu never had the habit of sleeping in. Every day, she would wake up at the first light of dawn and come to the top of Alkaid Peak to look at the disciples patrolling the mountain gate, as well as the others who woke up early to do their morning exercises. Every day. It was the same.
But in the last three days, Ruan Qingzhu felt that something was wrong.
There was nothing wrong with the disciples patrolling the mountain gate, and the disciples doing their morning exercises were also diligent, but there seemed to be something that was not pleasing to the eye. What was it?
On this day, this feeling was especially obvious, so much so that Ruan Qingzhu stayed at the peak for a long time to think about it, but she still couldn't figure it out. Just as he was descending from the peak of the mountain, his sharp hearing picked up the conversation of the students by the side of the road.
Rabbits?
Ruan Qingzhu was slightly stunned, and suddenly realized.
That's right, rabbits.
For the past few days, she hadn't seen many rabbits, and this was the place that she felt was not pleasing to the eye, right?
The rabbits on Alkaid Peak were indeed raised by Ruan Qingzhu, but she actually didn't pay much attention to them. Otherwise, why would she feel that something was wrong for a few days without realizing what it was? Until now, she heard the disciples talking.
Ruan Qingzhu's gaze shifted, and the disciples who were chatting noticed it. They immediately quieted down and bowed to Ruan Qingzhu.
Ruan Qingzhu nodded as a greeting, and with a flash, she was already beside them.
"What rabbits were you talking about?" she asked.
"The two newcomers who ate roasted rabbits last time," answered a disciple. "They are now catching all the rabbits on the mountain and keeping them together."
"They're rebelling against them! What are they trying to do? "Ruan Qingzhu flew into a rage.
The disciples were all startled, feeling very puzzled by Ruan Qingzhu's sudden anger. One of the disciples answered carefully, "They probably want to … keep rabbits?"
"Keep?" Ruan Qingzhu was stunned. "Why do they want to keep rabbits?"
You're asking us? The disciples looked at each other. Who would dare to catch rabbits and keep them in pens like this if not for your instructions? But just as they were puzzled, they realized that it was probably not Ruan Qingzhu's instructions. Otherwise, wouldn't she be so inexplicably angry just now?
"This … this …" The disciples were confused. How would they know what was going on? Some of the disciples saw Lu Ping and Zi Mu's actions, so the topic spread on the mountain. The disciples knew that these two guys had angered Ruan Qingzhu by eating roasted rabbits in the Newcomer Trial, so they guessed that they were being punished. Naturally, no one interfered. Until now, when the disciples saw Ruan Qingzhu's attitude, they realized that she actually did not know? Then what was going on?
The disciples were confused, but Ruan Qingzhu had already reacted.
A few days ago, Zhou Chongan asked her if she wanted to teach these two newcomers a lesson. At that time, less than a day had passed since the rabbit was eaten, and Ruan Qingzhu's emotions were still there. Naturally, she agreed casually. Now, it seemed that this was Zhou Chongan's way of teaching these two newcomers a lesson? At that time, Ruan Qingzhu did not give clear instructions. As one of the seven academicians, why would she rack her brain to think of ways to teach these two newcomers a lesson? It was just that when a disciple asked, she naturally agreed and asked the disciple to do it. But now, keeping rabbits in pens?
"Where are they keeping them?" asked Ruan Qingzhu. She was suddenly interested and wanted to take a look.
