Film and TV: Starting from the Night Watchman of Dafeng

Chapter 3 The boat has passed the Ten Thousand Mountains

What does the academy have in abundance?
book!
Classics of sages, historical records, biographies of famous people, and even more, strange stories, travelogues, and unofficial histories.

Naturally, there are also books that record extraordinary systems.

Although each system only reaches the seventh or sixth grade, it is also very precious!
"It seems that Gu Masters are a transcendental system exclusive to Southern Xinjiang."

"During the Battle of Shanhaiguan, the Poisonous Gu Tribe brought disaster to many Dafeng soldiers. Duke Wei led 10,000 cavalrymen, captured 5,000 young and strong warriors from the Southern Xinjiang Poisonous Gu Tribe, and buried them all alive. How dare that bastard appear in Dafeng again and even come to Chang'an? Who is the person behind me?"

Wei An frowned and shook his head, focusing his attention on the characteristics of the poison system.

The records in the books are not very detailed, and the summary is rather vague: this Gu can allow the host to produce special toxins according to different environments and materials. It can kill people with blood or bring the dead back to life.

It has a wide range of uses and is a must-have for murder, arson, and survival in the wild!
The cultivation and promotion of poisonous insects is also relatively easy. You only need to continuously feed them with highly toxic substances, such as poisonous insects and poisonous plants!
This is exactly what he is facing now!
After leaving the library, Wei An found a quiet room.

Just as Gu Masters are the exclusive extraordinary system of Southern Xinjiang, Yunlu Academy, which masters the complete Confucian promotion system, can be said to have the Confucian extraordinary system exclusively for it.

In the academy, students not only study the classics of sages, state governance strategies, and military tactics, but also constantly hone their own knowledge and virtues in order to advance to a higher level.

Therefore, a single quiet room is necessary.

"Thank you sir."

"Ah."

After receiving the wooden sign, Wei An found the corresponding quiet room according to the sign number.

The quiet room is very simply decorated.

There is a desk and a chair, with writing brush, ink, paper and inkstone on the desk; there is also a bed with a quilt on the bed.

Not knowing if there would be any unusual phenomena or changes after the promotion, he simply sat on the ground, his mind stirring...

Confusing cause and effect!

Activate the Gu Master system and advance to the ninth-grade poisonous Gu!

A mysterious force surged from deep within his body and gathered at the back of his neck...

Soon, Wei An could clearly feel that there was a small thing on the back of his neck. It was not obvious, but it was definitely extra.

Poison?
He subconsciously reached out to touch it, but stopped mid-air. A memory suddenly emerged and flashed back in his mind...

In his memory, he accidentally acquired a poisonous insect, its breath crimson and emitting billowing hot steam. He also learned the method for planting and controlling it. So, after repeated simulations and mastering the key details, he implanted the poisonous insect into the back of his neck. The process went smoothly, and he was successfully promoted to the ninth-rank poisonous insect master. After several attempts, he quickly mastered the method of using the poisonous insect...

When he opened his eyes again, Wei An lowered his head and looked at himself carefully. There was no change in his appearance.

He slowly raised his right hand again, and with a thought, light red sparks covered each of his slender fingers. Threads of heat flew out, and the air around his palm was obviously distorted, but Wei An himself could not feel any heat at all.

When he lightly touched the large blue bricks on the floor of the quiet room, sparks spread out with his fingertips as the center. After a while, a faint red light burst out from the blue bricks, as if they were burned through.

Wei An immediately suppressed the sparks in his palm.

Is this considered fire poison?

There is no such record about poison in the books in the library.

Suppressing his doubts, Wei An used his mind to activate the poisonous insect at the back of his neck...

Immediately, something in the body gathered towards the insect along the meridians and blood vessels, and this lasted for a long time.

As a ninth-grade poison Gu master, Wei An could clearly sense that the poison in his body had been completely absorbed by the Gu worms, and he even received feedback from the Gu worms that they were enjoying the food.

Thinking back to the smug eyes this morning, he couldn't help but smile.

When he thought about how the sword of Damocles that had been hanging over his head since he came to this world was finally gone, he almost couldn't help but let out a long howl.

Pushing open the door and walking out of the quiet room, Wei An saw the dazzling midday sun. He raised his head and saw a bright light!
The shackles are gone, and the future is bright and promising!
"The boat has passed the Ten Thousand Mountains!"

Finally, he couldn't hold it in any longer, he let out the anger in his chest and expressed his joy.

The sound was neither too loud nor too low, and could be heard by students within three or four meters, but not by those farther away.

"Brother Wei, great sentence!"

"You've reached the ninth level and gained enlightenment. Congratulations!"

"Good things take time, Brother Wei!"

"With Brother Wei's accumulation, we will surely make rapid progress in the future!"

"... "

Many people offered their blessings, and Wei An responded to each one.

I had only taken a few steps towards the dormitory.

Several figures suddenly emerged slowly from the void.

"Wei An."

"The student has met the principal."

He bowed. "Xin Xuezheng."

"Meet the Master."

"... "

The students around stopped and saluted respectfully.

Xin Shan nodded gently, his eyes swept around, finally landing on Wei An's face. He lifted his robe sleeves and gestured to the two people behind him, saying, "Wei An, Liu Yinluo wants to see you."

"Night watchman?"

"If you don't do anything wrong on weekdays, you won't be afraid of the night watchman. Why is the night watchman looking for Wei An?"

"Could it be that this person asked someone to write the poem earlier? And the night watchman discovered it?"

"Nonsense! It's okay for you to look down on Wei An, but how dare you slander Lord Song Zheng?"

"... "

Unreliable speculations abound.

"cough."

Xin Shan coughed to stop the discussion.

He glanced at Liu Hong beside him again.

The latter stepped forward at the right moment and asked loudly, "Wei An, someone saw you at Zhaohe Bridge on Guangnan Street this morning."

"Guangnan Street, Zhaohe Bridge?"

"Ah, it's about the missing tax money. Wasn't it said to be the work of a demon?"

"Why did Wei An go to Guangnan Street? The rice paper and ink in Guangnan Street are much more expensive than those in Xingning Street."

"Of the 150,000 taels of tax silver, only a few thousand remain. I heard that Cijiu's father was also involved."

"... "

There was another round of discussion, this time the voices were lower.

"It's true." Wei An nodded, feeling a little confused.

Is it true that the night watchman is looking for him just because of the tax case?

"In that case, please come with us." Liu Hong made a gesture of invitation.

Such courtesy was naturally not because of Wei An's identity as a scholar, but mostly because of the sign of Yunlu Academy above Wei An's head. In addition, Xin Shan was a fourth-rank gentleman in the Confucian school.

Wei An glanced at Xin Shan, who nodded slightly.

"it is good."

As he was about to leave with Liu Hong, Xin Shan spoke again, "Liu Yinluo, since this is just a routine inquiry, please try to be quick."

"That's a relief, Xin Xuezhen." Liu Hong smiled.

Watching the three retreating figures, Xin Shan's eyes grew sharper. He glanced around and said in a high voice, "Why is the water so clear? Because it comes from a source of fresh water! Wei An has been enrolled for over ten years. Have you learned even a fraction of what he has learned?"

The students lowered their heads in shame, covering their faces and running away.

...

a quarter of an hour later

Night watchman's office, dungeon
"Liu Yinluo, is this right? Why did you bring me here?" Wei An's words were quite helpless and sarcastic.

Liu Hong still had a smile on his face. "Oh? Mr. Wei knows this place?"

This is a bit infuriating.

Look at this dark environment!

Look at that blood-stained torture instrument!

Listen to the screams that sound from time to time!

"Liu Yinluo, do you think I'm a fool?" Wei An said with some anger.

Liu Hong's smile gradually faded. "Since you are a smart person, don't do anything stupid later. Tell the truth and avoid suffering!"

Wei An's heart skipped a beat.
