The Male Protagonist is My Father [MTL]

Ch 23

Chapter 23

"If nothing major happens, Pingnan Mountain will hold a worship ceremony every year. Although it is said to be worshiping gods, in fact, what is really important is not worshiping gods, but the competition between the major families." Bai Shang said

tightly Following Bai Lean, he climbed the cliff, but his face was not red and breathless, and his tone was calm, "It's probably the same as being invited by parents to perform during the Chinese New Year, except that the worship ceremony is much more serious." "Now,

even Immortal cultivators rarely compete with each other, and there is really no need for it, so they let juniors like us compare during the worship ceremony, which is similar to an exam." Bai Yue, who was on Bai Lean's back, held a tissue to Bai Le'an

. Wiped away the sweat.

Bai Le'an: "When you take exams, you will get results, and you will be compared. People with good grades may be remembered by others, but they will also become the ones that everyone wants to make friends with. It can help you gain a foothold in these aristocratic families." Bai Le'an carried it

. Holding Bai Yue is like holding a ball of marshmallows. It seems that if he exerts a little force, the marshmallows will melt, but if he doesn't exert any force, Bai Yue will be blown away by the wind.

He cannot do something that requires such caution.

But last night, he flipped a coin and guessed heads and tails and won Bai Shang, so today he will carry Bai Yue.

There will be another coin toss before going down the mountain. His luck has always been much better than Bai Shang's, so he probably carried Bai Yue down the mountain.

The untamable spiritual energy in the mountains gradually became stronger, causing everyone's breathing to slow down. Bai Yue was much less affected.

The curly-haired boy hung on the stone wall with one hand, "It's strange. The speed of the Bai brothers is a little too slow. This level of viscous spiritual energy should not have much impact on them." The girl holding the umbrella said

vaguely He glanced over there and said, "Maybe we can wait for the final sprint. The aura here is domineering and not easy to tame. If we go too fast, our body may not be able to adapt for a while." Although they went up the mountain at different times, they

each Everyone has a spell that records the time they go up the mountain. The girl holding the umbrella happened to go up the mountain at about the same time as Bai Shang and the others, so they can be compared together.

There was only a little sweat on Bai Lean's face, and his cheeks were a little red from the sun. He tilted his head and walked up the mountain, always looking for a shady place, even if it was possible. "Auntie, are you hot

? Do you want me to cast a cooling spell?"

Bai Yue shook his head, "Already have it."

Bai Le'an was stunned for a moment, and the spiritual power around his body circulated a little faster, and as expected, Bai Yue felt a With the familiar spiritual power, he subconsciously looked at Bai Shang and narrowed his eyes slightly.

Bai Shang walked in front of Bai Le'an, "Save some spiritual power, you will need it later."

Bai Shang was right, so Bai Le'an shut his mouth.

Suddenly, a very gentle spiritual power passed by, like a gentle wind in early spring. It was not aggressive at all, and even took away everyone's fatigue when it fell gently.

"It's so comfortable. These overbearing spiritual energies are really annoying. This is the first time I've felt so aggrieved." "

This should be the spiritual power of the Gongye family master. Only his spiritual power is so special. It can embrace all rivers. It will not arouse anyone's spiritual rejection, and it is so gentle. I feel like I have turned into a baby lying in a cradle." "Every year, the spiritual

power and consciousness of the head of the Gongye family will stay in the mountain. If an unexpected situation occurs, it is best to take rescue action as soon as possible."

The mountain climbing activity on the God's Day is not a particularly difficult test for immortal cultivators. At most, the overbearing spiritual energy in the mountains will make the body uncomfortable.

However, most of the children participating in the God Sacrifice Day come from a family of cultivators. This time it is just a simple competition, and there is no need for a life or death outcome. Therefore, every year, a highly respected person in the circle is invited to sit in charge and fill the spiritual power. All over the mountain, if there is an accident, they will take action immediately.

Last year we invited Gongye Zelan's senior brother, and this year it was Gongye Zelan.

Hearing the words Gongye Zelan, Bai Yue's right eyelid twitched hard twice and pressed his face against Bai Le'an's quilt.

Bai Le'an noticed Bai Yue's movements and looked at a shortcut in front of him and another dense forest that had shade but needed to be detoured further. He decisively chose the second one.

"This year's children are quite good, especially the two brothers from the Bai family." As soon as the

middle-aged man with a purple burn on his face finished speaking, he saw Bai Le'an choose a longer route and frowned slightly. one time.

Yu Shi was busy serving tea and pouring water. After he fixed the tea cup, Gongye's jade-colored hands gave him a handful of candies. He was overjoyed and secretly hid them in his sleeves.

Gongye Zelan raised his eyes again and looked at the display screen with 4K image quality. The spiritual power of all the children who participated in the worship today was linked here, and everyone could be observed.

The person who spoke earlier was Gongye Zelan's senior brother. He was slightly dissatisfied with Bai Le'an for choosing a more leisurely road instead of going up the mountain quickly.

People who pay too much attention to enjoyment cannot endure hardship, and it is more difficult for them to achieve great things.

Yu Shi licked his lips and moved his chubby body to Gongye Zelan's side, "Uncle, the little brother of the Bai family seems to be afraid of the sun."

Gongye Zelan didn't pay much attention to the Bai family. Man, the reason why he gave gifts to the Bai family before was because Shen Yuqing paid too much attention to the Bai family during this period, which was not normal.

In the past few days, Shen Yuqing no longer stared at the Bai family, and he did not pay too much attention to the Bai family. Otherwise, if he really cared about the Bai family, he would not have agreed to the Bai family's request and then rejected it. .

He is not a loyal and virtuous person to begin with. He has nothing to do with how other people behave. If there is no benefit at all, he will not expend his spiritual power to save others.

Gongye Zelan only glanced at the person on Bai Lean's back and then looked away. On the contrary, Yu Shi was very curious.

"Uncle, there are people who are willing to carry others up the mountain. If they accidentally fall down, although we are here, they will not be injured, but they will not be able to participate in the day of worshiping the gods." Yu Shi likes to worship the gods very much

. Because he can eat a lot of delicious food on this day, Master will not say that he is greedy for temporary pleasure, nor will he tell him to lose weight.

Just when Yu Shi wanted to take another look, the picture on the display screen turned and Bai Le'an disappeared.

Yu Shi couldn't see anything interesting, so he pouted and stood beside Gongye Zelan silently.

After arriving at the top of the mountain, Bai Yue got off Bai Le'an's back. Many peers around her looked at her, including classmates from the same school.

Bai Le'an turned his neck slightly and made a crisp sound.

Although he has always been a popular figure in the school, this does not mean that everyone in the school likes him.

"Bai Le'an," a boy wearing a white sportswear walked over casually. He first glanced at Bai Le'an with an unclear expression on his face, and then looked at Bai Yue, the unwritten expression on his face became even more obvious, "This Is she your girlfriend? I seem to have seen you on the school results column. It's really not easy to pass every exam."

Bai Le'an stood in front of the boy in sportswear with a cold face, and suddenly raised his head. His hand grabbed the boy's collar. He moved so fast that it was natural that the other party didn't react.

"What's wrong? My grandpa can be so happy that he hasn't eaten for several days."

The boy was about to break free from Bai Le'an's hand, but was startled when he heard Bai Le'an's words, "Happy? Grandpa?"

Bai Le'an tugged at the corners of his lips, Her hair was a little messy due to the cold wind, "Yes, this is my little aunt. According to her seniority, you should call her aunt." It was more difficult for Bai Yue to pass this exam than

before. She has passed this exam for two consecutive semesters. Bai Mingcheng was naturally very happy. Although Bai Le'an's statement was a bit exaggerated, Bai Mingcheng was indeed a little happy and couldn't sleep. He also felt that his ancestor who had become an immortal was protecting Bai Yue.

Feeling that more and more people were looking at her, Bai Yue, who always liked to keep a low profile, felt very uncomfortable. If a turtle shell could grow on her back, she would definitely get into it immediately.

She failed the exam on her own volition, because once her grades were even slightly better, supporting characters would be attracted by her cannon fodder aura and try their best to slap her in the face.

In order to avoid things like this happening, she ultimately chose to keep a low profile and fail the exam.

Because everyone around her was a big shot, even ordinary passers-by were slightly better than her. No one in the school except her could fail so many subjects in a row before.

Later, when she saw Bai Mingcheng worrying about her grades every day, she allowed herself to pass, but she didn't expect Bai Mingcheng to be so happy.

Bai Yue lowered her head again. In fact, she really wanted to tell Bai Le'an that his tone didn't need to be so proud. It was normal to pass the exam.

"Auntie..."

Bai Le'an glanced at the boy in white sportswear who was a little overwhelmed by his seniority, and pushed him away hard.

It's true that cats and dogs can laugh at his little aunt.

My little aunt is a bit unintelligent, but this is not the reason for others to laugh at her.

The boy in white sportswear staggered back two steps. Seeing Bai Le'an about to leave, he was a little surprised: "You won't beat me?" "Are

you sick?"

Bai Le'an snorted coldly and took off the black jacket hanging from his shoulder. Small backpack with bow.

When the boy in sportswear saw him take out a small dinosaur's water cup from his backpack, he subconsciously took a half step back. After the spiritual power in his body was ready to be unleashed, he discovered that Bai Le'an only had a cup in his hand.

It is not easy to see magic weapons now, because there is almost no environment rich in spiritual energy needed to refine magic weapons. I am afraid that only some aristocratic cultivating families can get magic weapons.

Bai Le'an went back to find Bai Yue, and had to remind Bai Yue to replenish water.

Bai Yue's "disease" makes her a little different from ordinary people. For example, if a person is hungry or thirsty, he, as the owner of the body, will definitely be the first to feel it, but Bai Yue cannot feel it. If she forgets to eat or drink, she has to rely on the people around her to remind her.

Bai Le'an still remembered that when he was a child, he went to play with Bai Yue. The two of them dug sand on the beach under the scorching sun. After playing for a while, he felt a little thirsty, so he told Bai Yue that he would go back and drink some water. Will bring water for her to drink.

After he returned to the room and drank water, he was attracted by the movie playing on the TV. He watched it for a long time. It was not until the housekeeper came to ask him why Bai Yue was missing that he remembered that Bai Yue was still outside on the beach.

He hurried over and breathed a heavy sigh of relief when he saw Bai Yue still sitting on the beach from a distance. However, when he walked over, he found that Bai Yue's condition was not good.

Bai Yue's cheeks were very red from the sun, her lips were chapped, and she was sweating a lot on her face and body.

Seeing Bai Yue's appearance, the housekeeper quickly hugged Bai Yue up in distress, "Miss Bai Yue, are you thirsty? I prepared a lot of watermelon juice. Some of my face was sunburned. I'll ask the doctor later. Come and have a look, don't worry, it won't hurt."

After that time, Bai Le'an knew that Bai Yue was different from other people. Maybe she was slow to respond to her own perceptions, which was different from other children, but in Bai Le'an's view , Bai Yue's endurance is both amazing and pitiful.

"Auntie, drink..."

Bai Le'an just turned around, and the young man with a gloomy face stood in front of Bai Yue, and the clip in his hand almost touched Bai Yue's hair.

He strode over with slender legs, grabbed Xiao Taiqing's wrist, and narrowed his eyes slightly, "What are you doing?"

Xiao Taiqing glanced at Bai Yue's slightly messy hair, and pursed his light lips. Flaps, chest heaving became obvious, "Her hair is messed up."

Bai Lean's eyes were sharp, "Did you mess it up?"

"Of course not." Xiao Taiqing shook his head, his brows furrowed slightly, thinking that the other party was Bai Yue's eldest nephew, so Hold back.

"It's not your fault?"

Before the smell of gunpowder between the two people became stronger and stronger, Bai Shang came over and pressed one person's shoulder with one hand. "Master Xiao, please give me the clip. Thank you." Xiao Taiqing looked at

Bai Shang With one glance, he silently put the clip into Bai Shang's hand, and then walked away.

Bai Le'an frowned hard, "Are you really going to give the card to your little aunt?"

Bai Shang was silent for a while, staring down at the card in his hand, "Xiao Taiqing is a famous pervert. He doesn't want his things. Wait a minute. Find a place to throw it away."

Xiao Taiqing returned to his friends. These friends, like him, were all aliens in the eyes of others.

The friend hooked Xiao Taiqing's neck, "What's wrong? Broken in love? Don't worry, I'll help you find a solution, but so do you, everyone has a boyfriend... But I still like the plot of snatching the sweetheart." Xiao

Taiqing Pushing his friend's hand away, his chest was not heaving so much, "No, you are overthinking. Bai Yue is Bai Mingcheng's daughter, and Bai Yue is Bai Le'an's aunt." The friend's expression paused, and the corners of his lips raised a meaning

. An unknown smile, "That's interesting. Isn't the goal your father set for you to beat the Bai family? There should be a lot of people eyeing the Bai family this year. The Bai family is also considered to be a big success. Anything good can happen. They picked it up."

"My father said that there are still people in the circle who are planning to attack the Bai family. I hope everything goes well."

Bai Yue blinked, and suddenly a bone-chilling chill wrapped around her body, and she shook unconsciously. I turned around and had a very bad feeling.

She slowly turned her eyes, and a figure that seemed to be riding on the wind appeared in her sight.

Even on the top of a mountain with dense vegetation, other people couldn't completely integrate into nature and the world, but that person did it. He was as gentle as a spring breeze, and no one noticed that he was suitable to appear here. over there.

Bai Yue was not the only one who noticed Gongye Zelan. When his gentle spiritual power swayed gently in the wind, everyone felt his presence.

Compared with the first time we met that day, Gongye Zelan's skin was paler, but not sick.

"I will supervise this year's God Festival," he smiled faintly, like a hibiscus flower floating on the water, "but I'm not good at words, so just skip the step of letting me speak." Someone saw

that After Gongye Zelan, they slowly walked towards where Gongye Zelan was. They didn't dare to move too much, but their thoughts were known to everyone.

Gongye Zelan's spiritual power is very special. He is different from other immortal cultivators. His spiritual power is not particularly aggressive, but it can purify a person's turbid air.

Immortal cultivators are most afraid of having too much turbid qi in their bodies, so they practice fasting and do not eat human food, so they will not be contaminated with too much turbid qi.

However, not all immortal cultivators may be able to resist the temptation of delicious food. What's more, everyone who cultivates now is not necessarily going to become an immortal. Everyone knows that becoming an immortal is almost impossible.

The process of washing away excess turbidity from the body is extremely refreshing, so everyone likes to get closer to Gongye Zelan, but Gongye Zelan's fairy-like appearance makes many people intimidated, even if they think about it again If you want to get closer, don't dare to go too far forward. You will subconsciously keep an appropriate distance.

There are many families who have received help from the Gongye family. Even those who have not received favors from Gongye Zelan do not dare to go against the Gongye family in public, unless they want to make trouble with most people in the entire circle.

Gongye Zelan walked over slowly.

He didn't talk much, and others didn't dare to have any opinions about him, but most eyes were on him.

Gongye Zelan stopped slowly, just like snow falling on a tree branch without making any sound, "I saw you when you were young, and I didn't expect you to have grown so big." Bai

Leanzhan With his eyebrows flattened, the always unruly young man was not used to reminiscing with others, but he did not leave in a moody manner, but nodded uncomfortably.

Gongye Zelan glanced at Bai Shang indifferently. There was no smile on his face, but people would not feel his coldness, as if everything he did was taken for granted.

Bai Shang could feel the turbid air on his body slowly dissipating, and his fatigue suddenly disappeared completely, making him feel very comfortable.

It's an irresistible and addictive feeling of comfort.

"Hello, Master Gongye."

Gongye Zelan's light and shallow eyes finally fell on Bai Yue, who was sitting on Bai Le'an. His appearance had always been lovable, at least no one would show his disgust so obviously, but where he was Bai Le'an seemed to be very afraid of being seen by him, even the extra hem of his skirt was pulled behind Bai Le'an, hiding completely.

Bai Yue shrank her little head and pressed closely behind Bai Le'an.

Naturally, she didn't want to be recognized by Gongye Zelan, because Gongye Zelan didn't want her body to be seen naked either!

However, last time it was an accident.
