Chapter 103 Gan Yujing’s grievance (eighth update)

The monk surnamed Wang saw something wrong with his expression, and thought that there was an acquaintance of his among the dead monks, so he comforted him and said: "My fellow Taoist, please bear with me. After all, people cannot be resurrected after death."

"I know, I know..."

Ji Bochang sighed and said half-truthfully, "I just suddenly heard that a familiar neighbor died at the hands of evil cultivators. It is inevitable that I will feel a bit sad about the death of a rabbit."

"Yes, yes, yes~"

The monk surnamed Wang smiled nonchalantly and said, "As a guest of Baibao Pavilion, Fellow Daoist Ji, you are more than able to gain a foothold in the city. How can those casual cultivators working hard outside compare with you?"

"Fellow Daoist Wang is overly praised!"

Ji Bochang originally wanted to be polite, but when he saw that the Xianxia Mountain outer sect disciples in the residence seemed to have finished negotiating with the residents and were about to come out, he lost the interest in being polite.

At that moment, he cupped his hands and said, "Ji has to go to Baibao Pavilion to do some official work when he leaves today. It's inconvenient to stay for a long time. I hope fellow Taoists don't blame me."

"It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter..."

When the monk surnamed Wang saw that his colleagues had finished their official duties and were no longer interested in chatting, he cupped his hands and said, "Fellow Daoist, please go slowly~"

"Farewell..."

After Ji Bochang finished speaking, he turned around and left Wuyi Alley, heading towards the Baibao Pavilion.

On the way, he thought of the jade plaque given by Feng Yunqiu that could lead to him serving in Xianxia Shanfang City, and his thoughts couldn't help but wander a little further...

Xianxia Mountain~

Not only for myself, but also for the entire Southwest Region, Xianxia Mountain is a behemoth that has stood for thousands of years!

Such beings, in addition to having their own set of rules of conduct, must also have their own internal intelligence system.

Although the 'outer disciples' of Xianxia Mountain do not have much real power and are more dependent on working in the city, in the final analysis they still belong to the circle of Xianxia Mountain.

If the Sanxiu in Fangshi and the gate of Xianxia Mountain are regarded as two non-intersecting circles...

These 'outer disciples' of Xianxia Mountain are between Sanxiu and Xianxia Mountain. There are circles on both sides that intersect and touch.

Not only can you learn about various casual cultivators in Fangshi, but you can also get in touch with some things inside Xianxia Mountain.

No wonder Feng Yunqiu said that with the status of an 'outer disciple' of Xianxia Mountain, it would be much easier to do things in the city...

Ji Bochang's eyes narrowed slightly, thinking that with the continuous growth of his minor skills and cultivation, he would inevitably be involved in some disturbances...

Although you don’t mean to hurt others, you can’t be unprepared for others!

For example, Shang Yunfeng’s hostility;

For example, Zhang Liangyuan’s hostility;

The former is better off with Shopkeeper Hu in check;

The latter's magnanimity cannot be complimented. When he met me, the hatred in his expression was barely concealed. If he hadn't been in the market, he would have wanted to tear him alive...

If that's the plan...

In the future, I have to find an opportunity to visit the resident real person in Fang City, and use the identity of the ‘outer disciple’ of Xianxia Mountain to make some plans...

After all, he doesn’t want to put his wealth and life on the uncertain factors of whether others dare to commit murder in the market!

Ji Bochang took a deep breath after making a plan. When he saw the Baibao Pavilion in front of him, and thought of the graceful figure under the ink cheongsam, his heart became a little hot. He immediately abandoned all distracting thoughts and stepped into the pavilion.

When the female receptionist at the front desk saw him entering, her eyes lit up. She smiled and came forward to greet him, saying, "I have met Ji Keqing."

"No need to be polite..."

Ji Bo often waved his hand and asked, "Can Yu Jing be in the pavilion?"

"In the backyard of the pavilion..."

When the female receptionist heard this, she seemed to have expected it, and asked with a smile: "Ji Keqing, would you like me to summon Yu Jing?"

"No need to call..."

Ji Bochang shook his head, pondered for a while and said: "Ji hasn't been to the backyard of our pavilion yet. Could you please show me the way?"

To him, Gan Yujing half a year ago was like a half-ripe peach with a greenish-reddish color. It tasted a bit stiff, more than enough to quench his thirst, but not enough to fill his stomach;

After more than half a year of manipulation, she is now a soft, sweet, ripe peach, the kind that can make water come out when you take a bite...

Not only can it quench your thirst, but it can also fill your stomach!

The female receptionist at the front desk also knew that Gan Yujing had an unusual relationship with the Ji Keqing in front of her, and that she was basically an appointed person, so she led the way without thinking too much...

The facade of Baibao Pavilion occupies a very large area, and the backyard is where the pavilion receives, waits, and entertains guests.

Although Ji Bochang had a job in Baibao Pavilion, he also knew that Gan Yujing lived in the backyard of the pavilion, but he had never visited it.

He had nothing to do and glanced at the second floor. Seeing that the door of Shopkeeper Hu's official room was locked, he asked casually: "Is Shopkeeper Hu not in the pavilion?"

"Not here..."

The female receptionist at the front desk shook her head and explained: "The Wanbao auction will start in a few days. Shopkeeper Hu has been invited to Wanbao Building to discuss matters with several other shopkeepers."

"oh?"

Ji Bochang was surprised when he heard this and asked: "How many days will the Wanbao Auction House start?"

"There are still three days."

The female receptionist at the front desk explained: "In order to attract people to enter, the first Wanbao auction after the end of the ancient secret realm is always grand, and there are many treasures auctioned.

Moreover, this time coincides with the four-sect competition being held in Xianxia Mountain, which is a grand event that happens only once in a century, so Shopkeeper Hu and the other shopkeepers have to treat it with caution."

As she spoke, she seemed to have thought of something, and then asked in a different direction: "Ji Keqing, didn't Yujing inform you of the date of the Wanbao Auction and the details of the auction items?"

"..."

When Ji Bochang heard this, he frowned slightly and shook his head, saying, "If you hadn't told me, I wouldn't have known that the Wanbao Auction was about to start."

"Then Yu Jing is really..."

The female receptionist at the front desk muttered dissatisfiedly and said in annoyance: "How could you not inform Ji Keqing about such an important matter?"

"I can't blame Yu Jing for this matter."

Ji Bochang shook his head calmly and explained: "A few days ago, I practiced in seclusion at home for many days and did not come to the pavilion. Naturally, I can't blame her for this."

"It's my fault..."

The female receptionist at the front desk murmured rather resentfully, and then said to herself: "But this kind of thing should be sent to Ji Keqing's hands..."

"Maybe I was busy and forgot..."

"Ji Keqing is so considerate, and I really envy you that Yu Jing can take care of me."

"..."

Uncle Ji often saw that the woman was tea-smelling when receiving tea, and her words seemed to recommend her. He just smiled and didn't say anything more.

at the same time…

In a room in the backyard of Baibao Pavilion...

Gan Yu sat in front of the window sill in silence, holding her chin in her left hand, while her right hand was aimlessly grabbing the petals of the potted plant in front of her.

She couldn't hide her haggard expression, and her brows were knitted into a knot, as if she was lost in thought.

'Does he like me or not?'

'With a Taoist monk like Sister Tong here, can he appreciate my public reception?'

'The words he said are enough to prove that he has a good impression of me, but we have been together for half a year, and we have said a lot of ambiguous love words. How come there is not a word of commitment?'

"If you don't want to be a wife, you might as well be a concubine."

‘…’

While my thoughts were racing, I didn't even realize that the petals of the flowers in the potted plant in front of me were almost plucked out.

She could clearly feel that Ji Bochang had a good impression of her, and his concern for her exceeded the threshold of a friend. It was just a layer of window paper that could turn this ambiguous relationship into a Taoist couple.

But after getting along with him for six months, his attitude was hot and cold, which made her wonder if she had understood it wrong...

What made her even more embarrassed was that even though she didn't resist and had already hinted at him, he never gave a clear answer.

So much so that the relationship between them is always above that of friends, and they are in an embarrassing situation of not being enough Taoist companions...

It is human nature to love gossip, and most of the female receptionists in Baibao Pavilion knew about the ambiguous relationship between Ji Keqing and Gan Yujing.

At first, they were very envious of Gan Yujing.

But as time went by, they discovered that the relationship between Ji Keqing and Gan Yujing had not changed. In recent days, Ji Keqing simply stopped coming, and her attitude became more and more subtle...

And some people can't see others doing well, so they take pleasure in others' misfortunes and gossip behind their backs.

Rumors such as 'Ji Keqing doesn't like her at all', 'Some people are too sentimental', 'I'm afraid she won't even be able to be a concubine'...

Gan Yujing was also a member of this circle in Baibao Pavilion. Living under the same roof with them, she naturally heard some rumors about herself.
