Gu Dajiang was stunned. He felt that this voice was a little too young.
As expected, there was a man in his thirties sitting inside. However, this man was dressed in a long robe and had a short beard. He looked like a sage.
The man glanced at them and smiled. “You’re Gu Zicheng, right?”
Gu Dajiang’s courtesy name was Zicheng, which was given to him by the old Elementary Scholar before he passed away. It meant that he hoped that he could withstand the unfair tribulations in his life and rise in the future.
The man continued, “I am the Mountain Elder of the Tianhai Academy. Come, take a seat first.”
Gu Dajiang couldn’t help but twitch his lips when he saw him trying his best to calm down. He said, “I’m Gu Zicheng. They are my family. Brother, please tell me where the mountain elder is.”
The man frowned. “Didn’t I tell you? I am Mountain Elder Qi. What do you have to doubt?”
“Brother… you’re too young.” Mountain Elder Qi was in his fifties. Even though this person had a beard, he didn’t look like he had reached that stage, right?
The man was a little displeased. “I just look young because I usually pay attention to my health. How did it become a reason for you to suspect me?”
Gu Dajiang thought: If you don’t look so nervous, you might be more convincing.
It seemed that Mountain Elder Qi was indeed not around. Gu Dajiang did not know where this student came from, but he was actually playing a prank in Mountain Elder’s Fate Hut.
Gu Dajiang shookhis head. “Since Mountain Elder hasn’t returned, I’ll wait outside.”
With that, he carried Gu Yunke to the door again.
He had just taken a step when he heard a sudden splashing sound behind him, followed by a voice. “Wait.”
Five or six people suddenly came out from behind the screen. All of them were wearing the clothes of the academy students. They were of different ages. The one in front was a twelve or thirteen-year-old boy. He looked like the leader.
He immediately ran to Gu Dajiang and stopped him. “Wait, who let you leave?” “And you are?”
“My surname is Qi. The person you’re looking for is my grandfather.” The young man raised his chin slightly, and the people behind him immediately surrounded him.
Gu Yundong could vaguely hear the whispers between them. “I knew it. Brother Cai is too different from the mountain elder. He can’t fool anyone at all.”
“Not necessarily. If we meet a bookworm, he’ll definitely be fooled.”
“But reality has proven that Gu Zicheng is not a bookworm at all.”
As they spoke, they suddenly felt a strange gaze on them. They immediately looked up and met Gu Yundong’s indescribable expression.
The students were speechless. Why did she look like she was looking at a fool?
It must have been an illusion. The few of them hurriedly stood behind the youth.
Qi Ting was Mountain Elder Qi’s grandson. He was only 12 years old this year and was currently studying at Tianhai Academy.
He had long known that Gu Dajiang was coming. After all, the other party was introduced by Qin Wenzheng. Qi Ting had heard his grandfather praise Qin Wenzheng since he was young. Although he had never seen him before, it did not stop him from being very unhappy with Qin Wenzheng.
Qin Wenzheng was the better child. He was clearly a generation older than Qi Ting, but he still had to be compared to him. Just thinking about it made Qi Ting feel stifled.
Therefore, when he heard from his grandfather that Qin Wenzheng had actually strongly recommended someone to come to Tianhai Academy to study, he especially wanted to see who this Gu Dajiang, who was praised by Qin Wenzheng, was.
