Welcome to Xiuzhen Academy

Chapter 22 Drunken Rhetoric
  "You don't have to listen to them." Yu Qian shook the wine bottle in his hand. "If you like sweet, drink sweet. If you like bitter, drink bitter."

Secchia asked: "Why?"

Now it was Yu Qian's turn to be speechless: "Why is this happening? Just do whatever you want. If they hit you, just hit them back. That's not right. You can't beat them. The medical cultivators seem to be weak in combat. "

"But you can remember it first. You can go back to take revenge and kill them secretly, but there is no need now, they are already dead."

Seciya blinked, a little confused: "Am I weak?"

Yu Qian felt that he couldn't communicate with her: "Forget it, you drink, drink more."

"it is good."

Secchia sipped the drink in small sips, as if she was reluctant to drink it.

When the wine in the bottle was less than half full, Secchia's face was already red: "Why do I feel a little dizzy, wine...?"

Yu Qian explained: "You are drunk."

Secchia didn't understand: "What does it mean to be drunk?"

"You are like this now, dizzy and want to sleep." Yu Qian said, "Or you can also understand that you have been poisoned by a non-lethal poison."

"Am I poisoned?" Secchia said but took another sip of wine.

Yu Qian smiled and said, "Aren't you afraid of being poisoned?"

Secchia shook her head: "Don't be afraid. My body is resistant to common toxins and drugs."

Yu Qian asked her: "What if it is a very powerful toxin?"

"How powerful?"

"The kind of concentrated toxin that can kill thousands of people suddenly?"

Secchia thought for a while: "I don't have that high resistance."

Yu Qian nodded, that's good.

Secchia looked at her: "So is this liquid called wine poisonous? Are you poisoned too?"

"I don't." Yu Qian drank the beer in the bottle in one breath, "My resistance to alcohol is much higher than yours."

Seeing that she had finished drinking, Secchia raised his own in front of her: "Do you want more?"

Yu Qian took a sip meaningfully: "Okay, you can drink it."

After Sekiya slowly drank the wine, she could no longer sit still, her body swayed, and then her head tilted against the pole of the street sign.

Yu Qian called her twice, and she responded in a daze.

"Very drunk."

This little alcohol makes you drunk, but just right.

Yu Qian asked: "You said before that the ban prevents you from revealing information about the Holy See. Is it true?"

"Yes." Seciya drank too much and couldn't even pronounce it clearly. "Confidential information cannot be shared."

"So what is not confidential that can be said?"

"Well... there are a lot of them. The food in the Holy See is not sweet at all. It's so cold in winter. One outlet of the fountain is broken..."

Yu Qian interrupted: "Stop!"

It's totally useless.

She asked: "Is the Holy See related to the Federation? Or is the Holy See an independent government?"

Secchia thought for a while: "It can be said that the Holy See is an independent political power."

Yu Qian thought for a while: According to the previous news, even if the Federation had knowledge about the Cultivation Academy, it has not made it public now. Maybe it is not the time yet.

The relationship between the three seems to be maintained in a delicate balance.
  So she asked: "Is the academy independent of the Federation and the Holy See?"

Secchia nodded.

Yu Qian: "If you violate the ban, will you die?"

"I will die." Secchia paused, "But I can't violate the prohibition. My soul has been marked by the ancient god."

Ancient God?

"Who is the ancient god?" Psychia shook her head, unable to utter a single word.

"Forget it." Yu Qian changed the question, "Do you want to go back to the Holy See?"

"I don't know. If the nun asks me to go back, I will go back." Secchia replied.

Yu Qian hummed. In that case, she had placed an undercover agent in the Vatican. The only unstable point was that Secchia did not have a common fear of death, and the poison device might not be able to control her well.

"But..." Seciya looked a little confused, "But I don't want to go back."

She turned around and said, "Can I just do nothing if I don't want to do it?"

Yes, she doesn't like the Holy See.

Yu Qian's expression remained unchanged: "Of course, do you hate the Holy See?"

"What is disgusting?" Secchia asked.

She shook the beer bottle in her hand: "It's just like this wine, it doesn't taste good."

"That I hate."

Yu Qian smiled: "Why? Isn't the Holy See bad? Aren't the upper city all upper-class people? Do you know how many people from our lower city are struggling to get to the upper city?"

Secchia opened her mouth: "Fine...person? I don't know, I don't know if it's good or not, but I don't like it, just like your wine."

"Is the Holy See very strict with you? It seems to me that your previous companions didn't respect you. Did everyone there treat you badly?" Yu Qian asked. She was quite curious about the hierarchy within the Holy See.

Respect is bullshit.

In fact, there is even less respect in Xiacheng District.

Whoever has fists and big weapons is the right one.

Secchia asked doubtfully: "What does it mean to be good to me?"

Yu Qian didn't know how to answer this question: "Well, I probably just give you what you like."

"Oh." Seciya nodded as if understanding, "Then you are good to me."

Yu Qian:?
  She also wanted to ask some useful questions.

But Secchia's eyes were already hazy and watery, and she fell over and slid down the pole. Her words were a bit garbled, and it was hard to hear what she was saying.

Yu Qian had no choice but to hold her.

Not bad, I asked for some slightly useful information.

What she didn't expect was that the Holy See was actually an independent political power.

At least on the surface, the Holy See has always belonged to the Federal General Administration. It seems that this is just for people to see.

mutual benefit.

This word came to Yu Qian's mind.

The Federation domesticates people through the religious beliefs of the Holy See, while the Holy See uses the authority of the Federation to make people more willing to believe in the "true God."

"God" is a very efficient brainwashing method.

What about Cultivation Academy?
  It is obviously closely related to the Holy See, but it seems that it is not so close to the Federation.

In the checks and balances between these three parties, who is suppressing whom?
  Yu Qian secretly felt that this so-called exam was not that simple. It was like a whirlpool, with some kind of ulterior conspiracy hidden in the center of the whirlpool.

The answer she got from Seciya today only made her more confused.

She picked up the drunk Seciya, put her arm on her shoulders, and took her back to the hotel.

Dusk has fallen, and burning clouds occupy half of the sky.

Night is very close again.

I don’t know who will be one of the nine hundred unlucky people.

Yu Qian returned to the hotel.

Qi You waited anxiously at the door, and when he saw them: "Where have you been! I thought you two left me here, and I thought I was abandoned without doing anything!"
