Chapter 270 The Control Group Quit Working (20)

Compared to Mo Ci's doubts, the Jiang family believed that their coming here was a good thing, and their emotions were high for a while.

Cui Ai went out with confidence and interacted with people around her.

Mo Ci went to Qingshan Academy and formally became a member of it.

But Mo Ci came at a really bad time. It seemed that everyone had dreamed the same dream last night.

So the thing Mo Ci heard the most was about the koi in his dream.

The more I listen, the more mysterious it seems.

Mo Ci tried to feel the world again, but he really didn't feel the existence of spiritual energy. He couldn't use his mysterious power and could only use his internal force.

But now so many people have had the same dream on the same night, and no matter how you think about it, it feels wrong.

Or is there some other ability that he cannot understand?

While thinking, Mo Ci went to see Zhan Hongliang.

When he arrived here yesterday, he first came to pay a visit to Zhan Hongliang.

The main reason I came to see Zhan Hongliang today was to give him some food that my family had packed up yesterday.

Before stepping into Zhan Hongliang's yard, Mo Ci's keen five senses allowed him to hear Zhan Hongliang's voice inside.

"Alas, why did the king want to eat so many koi? What did the koi in my dream last night foreshadow? Is this good or bad..."

It sounded like Zhan Hongliang was talking to himself, while Mo Ci was analyzing the meaning of this sentence.

The king collected these koi for the purpose of eating them, which means that these koi must have some use.

From the perspective of "eating" alone, it may be related to longevity.

It was just a dream... Could it be that monsters really exist in this world?

Otherwise, who could have the means to make so many people have the same dream at the same time?

While thinking, Mo Ci raised his hand and knocked on the half-open door, "Master, are you there?"

The voice of mumbling inside suddenly stopped, and was replaced by a much clearer voice.

"come in."

Mo Ci walked in with something in his hand, bowed to Zhan Hongliang, and then put the thing next to Zhan Hongliang.

"Thank you, Master, for arranging this for my family. These are gifts of thanks. They are not expensive. I hope you will not despise them."

Zhan Hongliang waved his hand, "I don't mind, I don't mind. Come, Xiaoyi, come and sit over here."

Mo Ci sat down obediently, and only then did he see clearly that there was a piece of drawing paper on the table.

There was a half-drawn koi on the paper, and the koi looked exactly like the one in the dream.

Without waiting for Zhan Hongliang to speak, Mo Ci looked at the painting with curiosity.

"Huh? Master, this koi fish is exactly the same as the one I saw in my dream last night."

Zhan Hongliang looked surprised at this, "You said you dreamed of koi last night?"

Mo Ci nodded, "Yes, it's not just me. My mom, my dad, and my whole family had the dream. Mom even said it was a good omen."

"Dream? I dreamed about it..."

Zhan Hongliang murmured softly, as if he was confirming something.

After a while, he reached out and touched Mo Ci's head, took out a book from the side and handed it to Mo Ci.

"You read here for a while. Master is going out for a while. Got it?"

Mo Ci nodded, and Zhan Hongliang forgot about testing Mo Ci and left in a hurry.

Behind him, Mo Ci looked at his back, his eyes rolling, wondering what he was thinking about.

He looked at the half-finished koi portrait for a while before settling down to read.

On the other side, Zhan Hongliang left in a hurry and went to an independent hill of Qingshan Academy.

It was an independent courtyard. He came to the front of the courtyard and knocked on it.

"Come in."

Zhan Hongliang walked in quickly and asked the first time he saw the other person.

"Did you dream about koi last night?"

The man was about the same age as Zhan Hongliang. He was dressed simply, but he had the aura of a military commander.

He frowned and a fierce look came into his face.

"You dreamed about it too?"

As soon as these words were spoken, Zhan Hongliang knew that the other party had also had the dream. They looked at each other and saw the shock in each other's eyes. Then they went back to the house and sat opposite each other.

"Pang Bin, what do you mean by this incident? Is it foreshadowing something?"

Pang Bin is a military general and is good friends with Zhan Hongliang. The two have a good relationship, one is a scholar and the other is a warrior.

Pang Bin was considered one of the most sensible military generals. He surrendered his military power and retired early, but his wife died during childbirth.

After that, he never married again, but came to Qingshan Academy.

In the separate courtyard arranged by Zhan Hongliang, he chanted scriptures for his wife and children day after day, hoping that they could live a good life in the next life.

This wait lasted for decades.

Zhan Hongliang would occasionally come to sit with him, play chess, and talk about their past glory.

Zhan Hongliang's purpose of coming today was obviously different from the previous times. Pang Bin frowned and thought about it.

This koi has always been considered a lucky thing.

Especially the new decree issued by the king, which allows koi to be exchanged for gold, silver, and official positions, has made koi and good luck become more closely linked.

But both Pang Bin and Zhan Hongliang knew very well that the country's main koi were not for viewing, but for eating.

In this way, the appearance of the koi in the dream has another interpretation.

"It's hard to say about this. But are you and I the only ones who had this dream?"

Zhan Hongliang smiled bitterly and shook his head, thinking of what Mo Ci said, "I'm afraid it's not just that, perhaps the entire Zhaohe knows about it."

After all, even common people like the Jiang family had such a dream, which meant that this dream...

It's not made for one person, but for everyone in Zhaohe.

As for the reason... Zhan Hongliang actually doesn't believe in the supernatural, but at the moment, it seems that this is the only explanation.

The king's demand for koi and his behavior of eating koi made the koi, who was not sure whether it was a fairy or a demon, angry.

Pang Bin: "This... the king really is... what should we do now?"

Zhan Hongliang shook his head, "I don't know..."

The two looked at each other in silence. In the current situation, it seemed that the only way out was for the king to give up eating koi.

But because of this, they have no choice.

If the king had listened, Zhan Hongliang would not have been forced to return to Qingshan Academy.

Other court officials who have objections will not be temporarily dismissed from their posts and sent home.

The two of them were very troubled, but for the people of Zhaohe, this was not a headache.

At first, no one told anyone about their dream, as they all thought it was good luck coming to them.

Just like the Jiang family, they will soon find out that something is wrong.

Mo Ci read the book quietly. He didn't know how long it had been before Zhan Hongliang came back and brought Pang Bin with him.

When Pang Bin saw Mo Ci, he probably guessed who he was and spoke immediately.

"Hongliang, is this the kid who won first place in the scholar exam?"

Zhan Hongliang nodded and said to Mo Ci, "He is Pang Bin, my best friend. You can just call him Grandmaster Pang."

"Master Pang."

Mo Ci stood up and bowed to Pang Bin. Pang Bin waved his hand and sat down.

"You are lucky, old man. You have taught so many students, and now you have another talented child."

Zhan Hongliang rolled his eyes at him, and told Mo Ci not to bother with Pang Bin, and then continued with his previous action of wanting to test his knowledge.

It seems that the matter of koi has been overlooked.

Mo Ci didn't ask anything. After all, it would be useless for him to ask. There was no need, so he might as well just answer honestly.

Just like that, Mo Ci answered honestly, and Pang Bin's eyes, who was watching from the side, became brighter and brighter.

He suddenly stood up and touched Mo Ci's hand bones.

After kneading for a while, he looked at Zhan Hongliang again.

"This kid has good aptitude. How about letting him learn martial arts from me?"
