Chapter 208: Tempering (7)
Mo Fei and Ling Xiaoyu were discussing the construction principle of a Dao technique in a low voice, and suddenly, I don't know why the two of them closed their mouths at the same time, and the next moment, a figure appeared in front of the two.
"Liang Dong, when did you come back?" Looking at Liang Dong in front of him, who was clean and smiling, Mo Fei looked at him in surprise.
"Let's do it this morning!" Liang Dong said and sat down in front of Mo Fei, and said with a smile: "Sister Fei, I have already obtained the first Wind God Tree, do you see if I will hand it over to you, or ......"
"Keep it for yourself!" Mo Fei waved his hand, looked at Liang Dong with some uncertainty and asked, "You returned to the academy before sunrise in the morning?"
"Hmm!" Liang Dong nodded, smiled at Mo Fei, and asked rhetorically, "What's wrong, Sister Fei, is there anything wrong?"
"Nothing. Mo Fei smiled insincerely, but the surprise in his eyes became stronger and stronger.
"Okay, sister, I'll go over first, Yanling and the others are still waiting for me over there!" After greeting Mo Fei, Liang Dong got up and walked towards Ren Yanling and Su Qingyi at the other end of the restaurant.
"What's wrong, is there anything wrong?" The slight change in Mo Fei's expression naturally couldn't hide it from his best friend Ling Xiaoyu, Ling Xiaoyu lowered his voice and asked, "What's the matter, Liang Dong retrieved the first Fengshen Tree, are you still unhappy?"
"It's not okay to be unhappy, it's just a little strange!" Mo Fei withdrew his eyes and whispered to Ling Xiaoyu: "I originally thought that even if Liang Dong didn't return empty-handed this week, he should come back around the evening, but I didn't expect him to come back in the morning." ”
"Do you suspect that Liang used some other means?" Liang Dong's matter Mo Fei mentioned to Ling Xiaoyu, even this task was also found by the two of them, and Ling Xiaoyu naturally understood the crux of this.
"Probably not!" Mo Fei pondered for a long time and shook his head, and said, "Liang Dong should understand my original intention of arranging this task for him, and he shouldn't be tricky." ”
Ling Xiaoyu still couldn't help but speak: "In this way, could it be that we miscalculated Liang Dong's cultivation to enter the realm?"
"That's how it should be. Mo Fei still couldn't help the surprise on his face, when Liang Dong was admitted to Longmen Academy, it was a little unexpected by Mo Fei, and later Liang Dong directly won the first place in the freshman competition, and Mo Fei really put Liang Dong in his eyes.
The reason why Mo Fei supports Liang Dong so much, in addition to Liang Dong being her own cousin, the key is that in the upcoming year-end competition and the subsequent 100 courtyard competition, Mo Fei needs the support of trustworthy people.
Ling Xiaoyu is her best friend, but Ling Xiaoyu's strength will definitely not be able to enter the top three in the same grade, that is to say, she will not be eligible to participate in the Imperial Capital Hundred Courtyards Competition.
And several powerful people in the same grade have a bad relationship with Murphy. It's okay to say now, even if everyone participates in the Hundred Houses Competition, the battle is only an individual battle, and the team battle is not their share, but as they grow older, one day Mo Fei will stand in the ring of the team battle, and at this time, she needs someone who can be absolutely trusted standing behind her.
Who is more suitable for such a person than Liang Dong?
Those who can be qualified to participate in the Imperial Capital Hundred Academies Competition will basically be outstanding in cultivation in the future, and after graduation, they can directly enter the academy's research institute, and even directly become the outer disciples of Longmen Mountain Longmen Dao, which is almost a road to heaven.
Therefore, the competition here is also extremely fierce, as long as there is a little slack, there will be people of the same generation who will directly cross it. Even with Murphy's self-confidence, she didn't dare to categorically say that she would finish in the top three in her grade at the end, which required continuous effort.
According to Mo Fei's prediction, Liang Dong should be able to cultivate to break through the heartbeat period before the year-end competition, so there is basically no problem in entering the top five of the competition, and it is precisely because of this that Mo Fei asked his teacher to come forward to arrange such a task. Otherwise, how could it be so coincidental, just when Liang Dong needed it, the most suitable task for him appeared.
However, Liang Dong's cultivation did surprise Mo Fei a little, but Liang Dong's cultivation progress exceeded Mo Fei's expectations. Originally, Mo Fei decided that it would take at least three days for Liang Dong to harvest the next Fengshen Tree, especially if Mo Fei did not let Liang Dong use the steel cable to lock his body, so it would take longer.
Therefore, Mo Fei decided that Liang Dong's trip was very likely to be fruitless. Although Liang Dong has been to Wanying Mountain twice since he took over the task, the time has actually only passed for about ten days, and Liang Dong still has enough time to complete the task.
Even if Liang Dong didn't return in vain, then he would have to come back at least this evening, or even midnight. Liang Dong really surprised Mo Fei, it seems that some of his original plans need to be revised.
In the middle of the night, Liang Dong sat on the windowsill with his eyes closed, immersed himself in the practice of tuna, and gradually his consciousness sank into the sea of knowledge again.
The illusory figure seemed to be unconscious, and only the occasional ripples of the green sea under his feet made Liang Dong feel a trace of life.
Liang Dong knew in his heart that the ripples were the phenomenon caused by the increase in his own consciousness and cultivation, and now the depth of the sea of consciousness under Liang Dong's feet was as much as seven inches, and Liang Dong faintly understood in his heart that when the depth of his Baihui sea of knowledge reached nine inches, it was the beginning of his spiritual platform.
Liang Dong opened his eyes, his fingers kept pinching, and the three pots of ghost needle vines on the windowsill circled with the law at the same time, and moved around with the change of Liang Dong's mind. Suddenly, three ghost needle vines stabbed at the same time from different directions three feet in front of Liang Dong's body, as if there was something in the middle, tightly circling and intertwining.
Liang moved the fingers in his hand again, and the three ghost needle vines gradually loosened from each other, and at the same time retracted back into the stone basin.
As Liang Dong's cultivation grew, the ghost needle vines he was able to control expanded from the initial one to the current three, or even more, and the changes in this made Liang Dong very interested in exploring.
In the next few days, in addition to his normal class practice and qi talisman making, Liang Dong also learned some more spell manipulation methods, which can be regarded as being prepared.
On Friday afternoon, Liang Dong asked Teacher Shangguan for leave again in advance, and this time Teacher Shangguan didn't test Liang Dong's swordsmanship at all, so he waved him away directly!
Liang Dong left the martial arts class early for two consecutive weeks, which finally attracted the attention of some well-intentioned people. Hu Mingyue asked Huai Shi'an in a low voice: "Shi'an, do you know what Liang Dong has been busy with lately, why can't you see him on weekends?"
"This!" Huai Shi'an shook his head with a wry smile, and said with some embarrassment: "I don't know what this is going on!"
"Why, Liang Dong won't let you say it!" Seeing the look on Huai Shi'an's face, Hu Mingyue guessed what was going on, he deliberately snorted coldly and said: "This Liang Dong, doing things is always mysterious, and everyone's own classmates have to hide it from the past, and they don't talk about classmate friendship at all." ”
Saying that, Hu Mingyue looked at Huai Shi'an, and said with a suspicious expression: "Shi'an, you won't be such a person, right?"
"I, no, no, no!" Huai Shi'an hurriedly waved his hand, but his face was still very embarrassed, and after a while, Huai Shi'an said with difficulty: "It seems that a friend of Liang Dong is going to celebrate his birthday recently, Liang Dong is secretly preparing gifts, and I don't know the specific situation, okay, that's all I can say!"
After speaking, Huai Shi'an turned his head and connected his swordsmanship, and no longer paid attention to Hu Mingyue.
"Oh!" Hu Mingyue knew that these were already the things that Huai Shi'an could reveal the most, and if he continued to ask, even if he could ask something, I was afraid that it would alarm him, and once Liang Dong was alarmed, then things would be a little difficult to handle!
Now that there is this news, then the rest will ask other people to inquire, Hu Mingyue already has a way in his heart.
However, Hu Mingyue didn't see Huai Shi'an, who turned around, and the corners of her mouth had bent proudly at some point. How did he know that what Huai Shi'an said was explained by Liang Dong in advance, how could Liang Dong not know that he often left early to attract the attention of others, he just wanted to see what people would pay special attention to his whereabouts.
After leaving the Dragon Gate Academy, Liang Dong ran all the way, and the speed was extremely fast, and there was hardly anything that could threaten him within a radius of a hundred miles. It's just that when Liang Dong left the academy for a hundred miles, his footsteps couldn't help but pause, and then he pretended to be casual and accelerated forward again.
Just an hour after Liang Dong left, a gray figure reappeared where Liang Dong had landed, and a small gray demon mouse jumped out of the woods on the side. The gray figure took out a pill from his body, and fed the pill to the little demon rat in front of him with a painful face. When the little demon rat finished eating, it retracted into the sleeves of the gray figure.
The gray figure raised his head and looked at Liang Dong's figure who had already disappeared into the forest from a distance, his eyes were full of greed!
