"Not yet!" The girl in red replied in a low voice.
"Then why did he get off the bus?" Yang Dingtian asked.
"When we arrived at the Yin-Yang school, there were a lot of people. He felt embarrassed to be seen getting off the bus, so he got off early," one of the paladins said.
Yang Dingtian said, "That's normal. After all, he's from the Northwest Qin family. He can't lose face for his family."
"My ass. Descendants of famous families."
One of the paladins laughed disdainfully. "He's just the son of a servant of the Northwest Qin family. He doesn't even deserve a surname. How dare he call himself Qin Huaiyu. Who doesn't know that he's a braggart among the wandering warriors? Who would take a bus from a famous family?"
Yang Dingtian was slightly stunned. No wonder Qin Huaiyu didn't say his name. This person loved to brag, but he didn't seem like a bad person. There must be a lot of bitterness behind his smiling face. Suddenly, Yang Dingtian sympathized with him, but there was no sneer on his face.
After a while, the remaining four paladins got off the bus. Of course, they hadn't arrived at the Yin-Yang school yet. They also got off the bus in advance to save face. Suddenly, only the old man, the girl in red, and Yang Dingtian were left on the bus.
After these people got off, the girl in red, who was a little restrained, let out a long sigh of relief. Her posture relaxed a lot, and her beautiful eyes looked at Yang Dingtian boldly.
On her beautiful face, her eyes looked very lively. At this time, Yang Dingtian realized that the girl's big eyes were not only shy, but also had a trace of wildness. It wasn't like the wildness of Ximen Yanyan, but the boldness of a wild girl in the countryside when she let go of her restraints.
"Those people's eyes are so annoying. If they were in my house, I would have dug out their eyes," the girl in red said.
"Everyone loves beauty. They're not bad people." Yang Dingtian said, "They just look at you like that because you're beautiful."
The girl in red blushed slightly and said, "You don't look at me like that."
Yang Dingtian: "I wanted to, but I'm sorry."
The red-clothed girl blushed, and her wild eyes became even bolder. She no longer had any scruples with her father by her side.
Yang Dingtian quickly changed the topic and said, "They are all quite powerful. If you want to dig out their eyes, can you beat them?"
"They're all idiots. They can't beat me," the girl in red said proudly. Her cherry lips curled up slightly.
Yang Dingtian exclaimed in surprise and admiration, "You're that powerful?"
The red-clothed girl said embarrassedly, "It's not that powerful, but it's not bad. It depends on who it's compared to."
"By the way, don't believe what that Qin guy said just now. He loves to brag," the girl in red said.
Yang Dingtian: "Then was what he said false?"
The red-clothed girl said, "That's true. It's just that he likes to put on airs. Moreover, the things he said are things that everyone knows, but he makes it sound like it's a very high-level secret."
"What's your name?" the red-clothed girl asked boldly.
"I'm Yang Dingtian."
The red-clothed girl blushed slightly and said, "Why do you have such a name?"
It seemed that she was not completely ignorant.
"I'm Shui Hongshao," the red-clothed girl said. "My father's name is Li Guinong. I take my mother's surname."
When the old man beside them heard his daughter mention her father's name so eagerly, he could not help but smile helplessly and lovingly.
Yang Dingtian: "Your name is really nice."
"You've never heard of my father's name?" Shui Hongshao was puzzled.
Yang Dingtian was slightly stunned. 'Is this farmer-like old man famous?'
He immediately shook his head and said, "I'm ignorant. I just came from a place with no one around. It's my first time hearing Zhu Qingzhu's name."
Shui Hongshao said, "That's nothing. My father is quite famous, but he's not very famous. He's famous in a very poor way."
After saying that, Shui Hongshao looked a little worried.
"What are you doing at the Yin-Yang school?" Shui Hongshao asked.
Yang Dingtian: "I'm here to deliver something."
"Deliver a gift?
We're also here to deliver a gift. We traveled thousands of miles just to deliver a gift, and we even sold a lot of our fields to pay for the gift and travel expenses. The Yin-Yang school is very arrogant, so how could they possibly be interested in our gift? "
Shui Hongshao said in annoyance, "However, I'm just going out to play. I've never left home since I was young."
After that, Shui Hongshao continued to talk to Yang Dingtian.
Yang Dingtian gradually understood that the father and daughter were from the Wooden Sword Castle in the Pingliang Prefecture, and that Li Guinong was the castle master.
Moreover, what surprised Yang Dingtian was that the Wooden Sword Castle was also one of the Three Sects, Nine Clans, and Twenty-Seven Branches. It was actually one of the most famous sects in the world. However, its glory was in the past, and now it was so poor that it was about to be removed from the list.
This time, they traveled thousands of miles to deliver a gift in hopes that the Yin-Yang School would speak up so that the Wooden Sword Castle would not be removed from the list.
The more they chatted, the more Yang Dingtian understood that even though Shui Hongshao was a girl from the mountains, she was actually very intelligent, naive, and bold.
Time passed quickly as they chatted along the way. After half an hour, they arrived at the Yin-Yang school.
Yang Dingtian alighted from the car and bowed to Li Guinong and his daughter. "Castle Master Li, Miss Shui, farewell!
I wish you all the best. "
He had already decided that after entering the Yin-Yang school, he would put in a good word for the Wooden Sword Castle in front of his master's wife so that they would not lose the reputation that their ancestors had earned.
Li Guinong returned the greeting and said, "I wish Young Master Yang a bright future."
Shui Hongshao was a little reluctant and said softly, "When you're free in the future, you must come to the Wooden Sword Castle to play."
"Definitely!" Yang Dingtian smiled and turned to leave.
Shui Hongshao stood at the same spot and was unwilling to leave even when she couldn't see Yang Dingtian's back.
Her father, Li Guinong, smiled and said, "Daughter, you have good taste. It's a pity that he's ambitious and won't take a liking to us."
Shui Hongshao blushed and glared at her father. "Father, what are you talking about? Who likes him?"
*****
The Yin-Yang school was located at the mountainside of the Immeasurable Mountain. After alighting from the carriage at the foot of the mountain, they still had to travel dozens of miles to reach the Yin-Yang school's mountain gate. According to Yang Dingtian's calculations, this place was already more than three thousand meters above sea level.
The Eastern Cloud State wasn't too cold. The foot of the mountain was warm, but the mountainside was already covered in snow.
The Immeasurable Mountain was very big. From the foot of the mountain to the mountainside was only three thousand meters above sea level. However, the green flagstone road circled around the mountain and extended for dozens of miles.
Along the way, there were countless people traveling together. Most of them were wanderers who didn't belong to any sect or sect, or disciples of small sects and clans. They were only qualified to deliver gifts at the mountainside's gate.
Standing at the Yin-Yang school's gate, Yang Dingtian was shocked once again.
The snake-like flagstone road circled around the mountain came to an end, and the Yin-Yang school's mountain gate was right in front of him.
The mountain gate was actually a crack that was more than ten meters wide in the middle of a huge stone wall. The stone walls on both sides were at least forty to fifty meters tall. Standing under this huge mountain gate, Yang Dingtian felt incomparably small.
Moreover, the most surprising thing was that this crack that was more than ten meters wide, forty to fifty meters tall, and a hundred meters deep was actually carved out by a living person. This was because there were still sword and saber imprints on it.
In front of the mountain gate was an extremely huge stone quarry. At this moment, there were hundreds of tables set up. The tables were filled with people eating and drinking. After a wave of people left, they would immediately replace the dishes on the tables, and a new wave of people would continue to sit at the tables.
In front of the mountain gate, there were nine long lines. Everyone was holding a variety of gifts in their hands.
These people were all idlers with no status. They didn't even have the qualifications to enter the Yin-Yang school. They could only deliver gifts at the gate, eat at the big stone quarry, and then hurry down the mountain.
What kind of cold treatment was this, but countless people still rushed forward.
With a sigh, Yang Dingtian found a relatively short line and stood at the end, waiting to present his gift.
After waiting for more than an hour, it was finally Yang Dingtian's turn to present his gift.
He took out the Li Fire Nine Rings Pendant from his bosom. This was given to him by Yang Dingtian so that he could enter the Yin-Yang school and meet his master's wife.
This Li Fire Nine Rings Pendant was incomparably precious. It was definitely the only one of its kind today.
The person receiving the gift was actually not a disciple of the Yin-Yang school, but an ordinary errand boy. After receiving the gift, he expressionlessly asked, "Name, sect, and what gift?"
"Yang Dingtian, no sect, no sect. Li Fire Nine Rings Pendant," Yang Dingtian replied.
The errand boy's expression changed. He raised his head and looked at Yang Dingtian. Then, he coldly said, "Li Fire Nine Rings Pendant?
Take him away, whip him thirty times, and chase him down the mountain. Announce that no sect in the world is allowed to accept this person. "
Immediately after, four burly martial artists rushed forward, wanting to take Yang Dingtian away.
Yang Dingtian didn't understand. He angrily said, "What is the meaning of this?
Is this how you treat people who give gifts? "
The errand boy coldly said, "Even if you gave us a goose feather, we would still treat you to a banquet.
But if you deceive us, you are disregarding our Yin-Yang school. Whipping and banning us is already a light punishment. "
Yang Dingtian asked, "How did I deceive you?"
The errand boy said, "Today, you are the 99th person who has given away a Li Fire Nine Rings Pendant."
Then, he opened a box beside him. It was filled with Li Fire Nine Rings Pendants. They looked exactly the same as the one Yang Dingtian had given away.
Yang Dingtian didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
The Yin-Yang school was painstakingly searching for a Li Fire Nine Rings Pendant. Everyone knew that, so some wanderers who wanted to take advantage of the situation offered up fake ones. As a result, Yang Dingtian was implicated.
"Mine is real," Yang Dingtian said.
"Fifty-five people said so." The errand boy expressionlessly said, "Take him away and whip him!"
Immediately, the four martial artists grabbed Yang Dingtian's arms and slammed him to the ground.
"Impudent, who dares?" Yang Dingtian was furious. He was about to attack.
"Wait …" Suddenly, a cold voice sounded. Then, a snow-white figure floated in front of them like the wind. Immediately, everyone bowed in respect. This person was a true disciple of the Yin-Yang school.
The Yin-Yang school disciple picked up the Li Fire Nine Rings Pendant that Yang Dingtian had given him and looked at it in the sunlight. His expression suddenly changed.
