Chapter 1118: Capture

After getting off the flying boat, he went straight to the meeting hall.

The headmaster and the elders were all there. Seeing that the few people were safe and sound, half of them left on the spot, and only the five people's masters remained.

Yu Sinian told the whole story of Brahma City in detail, and Shen Xiuyuan supplemented it on the side. At the end, he took out the stone pendant and handed it over.

I thought that the headmaster Chengkong would take a closer look after getting it, but he didn't even look at it after getting it in his hand, and began to care about the physical condition of several disciples.

The words were both polite and official, asking the elders to take their own disciples back to recuperate well, and they would handle the affairs of Brahma City. He also didn't forget to let Lin Fan go back to rest for a few days, and wait for the senior brothers and sisters to finish their repairs before leaving again... Just don't mention the ancient times, as if he deliberately forgot it.

The other elders seemed to have a tacit understanding, and took them out after Chengkong finished his polite words.

Lin Fan and the others were not fools, even Mu Jingjing, who was the most straightforward, didn't ask out loud.

Is the ancient times taboo? Can't mention it?

Not really, there are still some records in the book, although they are few.

But looking at the looks of Cheng Kong and the elders, it is obvious that this is not the first time they have heard news related to the ancient times.

The things that Dao Xiu wanted to get with so much effort seemed really not worth mentioning here.

Lin Fan guessed that either Cheng Kong and the others knew that the news was not true and unreliable, so they didn't care.

Or, this news, whether true or false, should not be known by them, the disciples.

Thinking of those records with only a few words... Lin Fan felt that the truth might be closer to the latter - the secrets of the ancient world or other news are secrets of the upper level, secrets blocked from the lower level.

What kind of secrets need to be so secretive?

Natural materials and treasures? Divine weapons?

But if there are these, wouldn't it be better for the resources of the current cultivation world?

Until returning to Yinyuewu, Lin Fan didn't figure it out.

But if the news of the ancient world is really blocked, then it may take longer than expected for Yinze to find out useful information...

The servant guarding the gate of Yinyuewu saw Lin Fan coming out of the teleportation array and thought he was dazzled. He rubbed his eyes and ran over to greet him.

"Why is Senior Sister back?" the servant asked, "Did you forget to bring something?"

Su Ze told them yesterday that Senior Sister Lin would be away for three to five months at the shortest and a year and a half at the longest, and asked them to do their own work and not to be lazy just because Senior Sister was away. How long has it been?

"I didn't forget anything," Lin Fan stepped onto the stone bridge, "I ran into something, so I'll leave a few days later."

The servant followed her closely: "Senior Brother Yinze didn't know about Senior Sister's return, right? Do we need to notify him to come back? He's not in the pier now."

As the housekeeper of Yinyuewu, Yinze sometimes needs to go outside the peak to coordinate affairs, but most of the time he chooses when Lin Fan is not in Yinyuewu.

"No need." Lin Fan refused. "You guys take care of your own things. I have nothing to do here."

"Yes." The servant responded and stopped at the door.

Lin Fan walked around the rockery and went inside. Maybe her master was not at home, so she did not meet any servants along the way.

She walked through the main hall and came to the backyard. From a distance, she saw someone in the window of the study behind.

That figure was A Yu. Facing the bookshelf, with his back to the door and window, he was holding a duster in one hand and moving perfunctorily, and the other hand was in front of him, not moving for a long time.

The study is considered an important place, usually cleaned by personal servants, and ordinary servants would not come.

A Yu also relaxed his vigilance when Lin Fan and Su Ze were not there. When he found someone behind him, it was too late.

Lin Fan took the book in his hand and turned to the cover: ""Strategy and Attack"?"

This is a theoretical book that deeply analyzes how to win by wisdom, and emphasizes both strategy and wisdom.

In order to better learn the formation, Lin Fan found a lot of similar strategy books from the library, and "Strategy and Attack" was one of them.

Because it was written in classical Chinese, which was not Lin Fan's reading habit, and because it was about strategy, she found it difficult to understand and naturally learned slowly, reading less than a quarter of it.

And Ah Yu had already read more than half of it. Judging from his concentration just now, he had obviously read it and understood it...

With a "thump", Ah Yu knelt down. "Senior Sister Lin, I was wrong..."

Although Ah Yu was in the inner sect, he was still an outer sect disciple.

Of course, outer sect disciples could also read books, but they were not books in the library.

It was still the same problem. With their spiritual power realm, it was useless to read profound books. If they practiced recklessly and were eager for quick success, they would go astray and get into trouble.

As for books like "Strategy and Attack", they did not involve cultivation, so there was actually no restriction. But for outer sect disciples with low status and strength, such books were useless to them.

Strategy is of course important, but it must be based on strength.

This is like the common people living at the bottom of society who understand the "Essentials of Governing a Country", but what's the use? It's useless.

No mistake, read the content of the first post in the 6-9 book forum!

In the world of cultivating immortals, strength is everything.

Lin Fan actually doesn't mind what book A Yu reads. She just wonders why A Yu reads strategies. If a servant with low strength wants to make further progress, shouldn't he read books about increasing spiritual power and magic?

Unless he doesn't need it!

Lin Fan slowly walked to the round table and sat down, putting the book in her hand on the table, silently looking at the child who was prostrating himself and shaking like a sieve.

She had always known that A Yu was hiding something, but her previous guess was probably wrong.

Su Ze hurried into the backyard and saw A Yu kneeling in front of Lin Fan. He felt bad and quickened his pace.

"Sister Lin," Su Ze greeted Lin Fan first, then turned to A Yu, "What did you do?"

"I... I was curious and peeked at the books on the bookshelf." A Yu stuttered.

After such a long time together, he thought he understood Lin Fan's personality and knew that she was not a harsh person. But Su Ze was not.

Peeking at books could be a big or small matter. The point was not reading the books, but touching her belongings without the owner's permission.

Even books were like this. If there were more precious treasures in the future... the personal servants were supposed to help the master with chores, but with poor moral character, who could trust such a person to take care of private property?

Servants should have their own sense of propriety. Ayu was afraid that he would be sent back to the outer sect, and it would be difficult to find a chance to enter the inner sect again!

What was even more difficult was that he was afraid that his realm could not be suppressed!

He originally planned to find an opportunity to advance in the near future, and Lin Fan was his best shield. Who would have thought that just because of carelessness, he would...

Sure enough, Su Ze's reaction was as Ayu expected. He scolded him harshly and called for people to drive him away.

"No need." Lin Fan came out to stop him at this time, and said to Su Ze lightly, "Let him watch if he wants to. After all, I couldn't read without him at the beginning."

Before Su Ze responded, Ayu shouted loudly: "I dare not, Senior Sister Lin, I will never dare again..."

Ayu confessed and expressed his loyalty. Lin Fan thought he was noisy and waved him away.

Su Ze stared at the back of the person walking away and turned his head. "Senior Sister Lin, this Ayu..."

"I know." Lin Fan turned to the page in "Strategy and Attack" that Ayu had just read, and looked at it carefully. It was still obscure. "Give him convenience within a certain limit. See what he wants to do."

Su Ze originally wanted to persuade him, but considering Lin Fan's specialness, he finally did not do anything unpleasant and turned to talk about Jin Tong.
