The whole North Style Academy was in an uproar after the seventh storehouse was robbed. Those who were qualified to participate were all busy, while those who weren't were all discussing.
However, the Northern Mountain New Courtyard, which was the most useless area in the North Style Academy, was unexpectedly quiet and peaceful at this moment. When Lu Ping pushed open the door, Huo Ying was resting on the bamboo chair in the middle of the courtyard. Sun Yingsheng had just opened the door and walked out of the room with his hands on his waist. Under the ginkgo tree in the corner, Sister Tang was picking up a withered leaf with a face full of disgust. After that, she started to consolidate the Spirit of Qi on the ginkgo tree. The courtyard finally had the temperament of a cultivator.
"You're back." The sleepy Sun Yingsheng saw Lu Ping and casually greeted him. Even Huo Ying opened his eyes when he heard the voice.
"Yes." Lu Ping nodded.
"Why did you come back?" Huo Ying asked.
"There's nothing for me to do, so I came back." Lu Ping said.
"It can't be. I asked you to get medicine, but you stirred up such a big mess. How suspicious is that? Why did they let you come back so easily? "Huo Ying said.
"It's precisely because he stirred up a mess that he isn't worthy of suspicion." Sun Yingsheng said.
"So useless, what's there to be suspicious about?" Sister Tang finished consolidating the Spirit of Qi on the ginkgo tree and turned around to interrupt.
From this, it could be seen that the people in the five courtyards weren't ignorant of worldly affairs. They were very clear about what was happening in the academy. It's just that they didn't pay as much attention to it as the other courtyards. Even if they didn't look simple, staying in the Northern Mountain Five Courtyards that would cut off their relationship with the North Style Academy in a month, more or less they were alienated from the academy.
In the end, Huo Ying asked Lu Ping a few questions. Without waiting for Lu Ping to reply, the three of them started chatting. Lu Ping saw that there was no need for him to exist, so he immediately went back to his room.
Bang.
Following the sound of the door closing, the three of them realized that the protagonists they were talking about had already left.
"This kid …" Sun Yingsheng mumbled. He wanted to give Lu Ping a comment or two, but after thinking about it, he didn't know how to describe it. Just as he was conflicted. Whoosh. The door was pulled open again, and Lu Ping walked out with the rabbit in his arms.
"Is there anything to feed the rabbit?" Lu Ping looked at the three of them and asked.
The three of them were momentarily speechless. Even if Lu Ping wasn't deeply involved in such a big matter, he would still be involved in it. How could he still be in the mood to pay attention to this rabbit? Ruan Qingzhu was probably too busy to care about this prank at this time, right?
They didn't know. Lu Ping was not just passively involved in this. He still had to bear Chen Jiu's extremely important task. Under such circumstances, he was still meticulously taking care of the rabbit. He was extremely serious in answering the three people's questions.
"What do rabbits eat?" Huo Ying asked with a frown. The former head disciple of Alioth Peak was stumped by Lu Ping's question.
"I have a few cucumbers, is that okay?" Little Sister Tang said.
"Cucumber rabbit is a good dish. The fragrance of cucumber, the freshness of rabbit meat, and a little chili, that taste … Oh, are we talking about cucumbers fed to the rabbit? "Sun Yingsheng realized as he drooled.
"Sorry to trouble you." Lu Ping was talking to Little Sister Tang.
Little Sister Tang returned to her room and took out a few cucumbers. Influenced by her obsession with cleanliness, the cucumbers were washed until they were very tender. Lu Ping took them and fed them to the rabbit in his arms. The rabbit didn't refuse, and started chewing on them. The three of them just watched. After a long while. Sun Yingsheng finally couldn't take it anymore.
"Give me one." He swallowed his saliva and said to Lu Ping.
"Good for nothing." Little Sister Tang glared at him. But Sun Yingsheng had already taken one from Lu Ping's hand and started chewing on it. The crisp sound and the rabbit's chewing complemented each other.
"What are we doing?" He didn't forget to sigh as he ate the cucumber. But Huo Ying had already closed his eyes to rest. Little Sister Tang left after saying, "Don't let the crumbs fall to the ground."
After the cucumber was fed to the rabbit, there was no atmosphere of discussion in the courtyard. Lu Ping returned to his room. After settling the rabbit down, he began to worry about his Soul Power.
Bai Li's Soul Decapitation didn't have any effect on him. But when that Soul Power tried to find his Soul Power in his body, he felt it collide with Ecstasy Soul Lock.
Ecstasy Soul Lock was also a special ability, although it was used to confine Soul Power. But it was also formed by the condensation of Soul Power. In this confrontation between Soul Decapitation and Ecstasy Soul Lock, Lu Ping vaguely felt something, but it ended too quickly. Bai Li had casually used the Soul Severing Technique on Zi Mu once. Compared to the Ecstasy Soul Lock in Lu Ping's body that could confine the six spirits, it was simply too weak. In an instant, it was suppressed. Even with Lu Ping's keen senses and speed, he could only vaguely feel it. Now that he thought about it, the impression was too faint. He couldn't grasp it no matter what.
If Bai Li used Soul Decapitation with all his strength. What would happen then? Lu Ping looked forward to it. Unfortunately, he wasn't familiar with Bai Li at all. Naturally, he wasn't stupid enough to make such an unclear request. It might even be interpreted as an arrogant request.
After thinking about it for a while, he still couldn't come up with a method. Suddenly, there was a knock on the door. Lu Ping opened the door to take a look. He saw Zi Mu standing mysteriously outside the door. When the door opened a crack, he was already trying to enter. In the blink of an eye, he was already inside the room.
"Too much." Lu Ping said to him.
"The academician said that being careful is the most important." Zi Mu said.
"Being overly careful will also attract suspicion." Lu Ping said.
"You're right. Then how do I look more natural? How about this?" Zi Mu put on a pondering expression.
"You're right. How about I look more natural?" Lu Ping said.
"Normal … …" Zi Mu thought about it. But he didn't have any normal. Ever since he entered the North Style Academy, he had experienced all kinds of strange things. He had long forgotten what his normal state was like.
"Forget it, let's not think about it for now." Zi Mu said. "What should we do next?"
His determination was very great. When Jin Qi said that he trusted them and that they might need help, he was still doubtful and unconfident. But the trust and entrustment from Chen Jiu, one of the seven academicians, made him throw all these thoughts to the back of his mind. In the end, the difference between an academician and a head disciple was like the difference between heaven and earth. Chen Jiu's importance was much greater than Jin Qi's. Therefore, Zi Mu very happily regarded this as an opportunity, an opportunity to make a great contribution. This was an opportunity that he was willing to take any risks and fight for.
"Let's not talk about that person anymore. We'll take action in two or three days to avoid being too conspicuous." Lu Ping said.
"That person is called Chen Jiu. He is one of the seven academicians of North Style Academy, Megrez Star." Zi Mu's respect for Chen Jiu, who had given him the opportunity and trust, had increased by countless folds. He carefully instilled the identity of Chen Jiu to Lu Ping.
"Okay, let's go in two days." Lu Ping said.
"Then what about these two days? What do we need to prepare?" Zi Mu asked.
"Just like usual. If we have time, we'll familiarize ourselves with the map. "Lu Ping said.
"Apart from time, I have nothing else." Zi Mu said and immediately started familiarizing himself with the map. The map and the image of the herb called "Zhi Xin" could still be seen in his mind. Even though Zi Mu considered himself to be experienced and knowledgeable, he didn't know what kind of ability it was.
"Maybe I should draw the map." Worried that this ability would lose its effect, Zi Mu started to rummage through Lu Ping's room for a pen and paper.
