The guards picked up their weapons, and Shen Ningning and Xu Jingxi also rushed over.

Reaching the other courtyard separated by a wall, Ye Changyi fell to the ground, rubbing her ankles. The Black Wolf King was guarding her, looking around with vigilant wolf eyes.

 Seeing the scene in front of them, everyone was stunned.

 Blue flames floated in the air, one after another, more than a dozen in total.

 The guards were also dumbfounded.

 "Will-o'-the-wisp, it's a will-o'-the-wisp!" Someone screamed in fright.

Everyone is familiar with will-o'-the-wisps. In the wilderness at the foot of the mountain, you can occasionally see groups of flames floating around tombs.

Xu Jingxi said seriously: "Shen Ningning, please leave here first."

 The sound of Ye Changyi crying not far away was very sad.

“My ankle seems to be sprained and I can’t stand up. Ning Ning, please save me. Don’t leave me alone.”

Shen Ningning's soft voice was very calm and full of childlike innocence: "Don't be afraid, I won't leave."

As she spoke, she took a step forward and stretched out her little hand to touch the nearest will-o'-the-wisp.

 “Be careful!” Xu Jingxi’s expression changed, and he stepped forward and pulled her behind him.

Shen Ningning blinked her big eyes: "Don't worry, I seem to know what's going on. This is not the work of ghosts at all."

Ye Changyi had already grabbed the Black Wolf King by the neck and was dragged all the way back.

Her legs were weak and her face was full of tears.

"Not a ghost? Then there are so many will-o'-the-wisps? As soon as I walked over, I saw them jumping in the air."

Shen Ningning covered her mouth with her small hands: "Well, how should I explain it to you? Do you know that there is a substance called 'phosphorus' in each of our bodies. After a person dies, the phosphorus buried in the ground will When it evaporates, it will naturally burn into a blue flame when encountering very hot weather.”

Everyone present was confused.

 What “spirit”?

Ye Changyi was still trembling: "Then how can it float?"

"It's very light and will follow the wind. If you don't believe it, look at it." Shen Ningning roared and pushed forward with her little hand, and the wind pushed the two will-o'-wisps in front of her and flew forward twice.

Ye Changyi opened her eyes in surprise: "That's amazing! Ning Ning, you can control the will-o'-the-wisp!"

The little guy chuckled: "I told you it's not because of ghosts."

She analyzed carefully: "This place used to be a mass grave. There must be many skeletons underneath. It's not surprising that there would be phosphorus fire."

Xu Jingxi frowned in confusion: "How...how do you know this?"

He thought he had read a lot of books, but compared with Shen Ningning, he seemed to be far behind.

Shen Ningning blinked her big eyes, paused for a moment, and then said with a smile: "There is an explanation in a booklet left by my mother."

 In fact, it was in her mother's writing book that she was taught how to write the word "phosphorus", and her mother wrote this interesting story behind the word.

He also said that many people don’t understand it and think it is a ghost.

 In fact, it is just a reaction.

Xu Jingxi thought for a moment and suddenly felt something was wrong.

“You just said that this ‘spirit’ only burns when it’s very hot. So, it’s autumn now, why is it so hot?”

Ye Changyi was surprised: "Yes!"

Shen Ningning also puffed up her cheeks and thought carefully.

 Suddenly, she remembered something and bent down to touch the ground with her little hands.

 “I felt it right before, the ground here is hot!”

 Everyone hurriedly touched it to confirm, and it was indeed the case!

 Why is the ground so hot in this beautiful deserted house in the mountains?

 At this moment, the Black Wolf King howled.

Shen Ningning's eyes widened: "Come on, let's go to the front and have a look. Langlang said that there is a strange smell in the mountains behind the house."

 Speaking, she turned over and sat on the back of the Black Wolf King. Everyone quickly lit up their lanterns and followed behind the Wolf King.

 The branches in the mountains and fields are slanting horizontally, and the dense forests are deep.

The deeper they walked, the darker it became and it became almost invisible. Fortunately, they brought a lamp along with them.

“Is there the sound of running water?” Ye Changyi suddenly asked. Everyone nodded in agreement, and Xu Jingxi sniffed carefully: "There seems to be a faint smell of sulfur."

When the Black Wolf King led them over the hillside, they stood at the top and looked down, and everyone's eyes flashed with sparkling colors.

 “Wow!” Shen Ningning’s eyes widened in surprise.

How dark the woods were just now, now the eyes are so bright and open.

 There are actually several hot springs in a little-known mountain col!

Under the caress of the moonlight, the water of the hot spring is milky white, exuding a light mist in the slightly cool autumn night.

“It turns out that the geothermal heat is because there are hot springs here.” Moreover, because of the legend of “ghosts” here, it has not been discovered by others.

Ye Changyi held her hands on the tree trunk and murmured to herself: "Ning Ning, this is really a big discovery!"

 End of October.

 Autumn is gradually fading and turning into winter.

 Han Fuzi inspected the completion of the students' tasks.

 Everyone turned in the form one by one and stated their good deeds.

 But the good deeds done by some students are really outrageous!

Han Fuzi frowned and looked at Lu Shaoyuan standing in front of him.

 “You disbanded half of the banks? Why is that?”

"I opened that half of the bank. I no longer give the rich the opportunity to save money in my bank. I call them to go to the other bank. That bank is opened by my mother. She will help the poor regularly."

Looking at Lu Shaoyuan's serious answer, it seemed that he really thought this was a good idea.

  Han Fuzi was surprised: "You are really a..." genius.

  Han Fuzi waved his hand wordlessly: "Next one."

He was afraid that if he said a few more words to Lu Shaoyuan, he couldn't help but beat him.

 Look at the whole day review.

What most admired the ladies was the good deeds done by Xie Yuanjiu and several ladies in partnership.

They bought fish from the market and released them. At the same time, fishermen downstream caught them again and sent them to the market.

 Avoiding excessive killing of animals and meeting the needs of fish sellers and fishermen.

 Only Master Han frowned.

 “Something doesn’t feel right.” Is this a good deed?

In addition to thanking Yuanjiu, another thing Liang Yici did was perform a sword dance on the street, and all the silver reward she received went to help beggars.

 Han Fuzi nodded appreciatively.

The students gathered around the Master's table and asked one after another: "Master, have you decided? Who is the most outstanding in doing good deeds and can dine with the emperor?"

  Han Master looked around and said, "Wait a minute, Ning Ning hasn't handed it over yet."

  Xie Yuanjiu stood aside with a few female classmates who were close friends. Hearing this, he laughed quietly.

They whisper -

“There is still one more stick of incense left, and it will be sunset. If the princess cannot hand it over, will the master punish her?”

 “What are you thinking? Mr. Han loves the princess so much and regards her as his favorite disciple that he is willing to punish her?”

“That’s right, the princess is different from us. It’s not unusual for her to make an exception.”

While they were talking, they looked at Xie Yuanjiu again: "I just can't stand the princess bullying you, just wait and see, this time the master will definitely choose you to enter the palace to accompany the emperor to eat, and then the Xie family will regret kicking you out. "

Xie Yuanjiu is good at making friends. He only chooses what they like to hear and will also like them.

 In just two months, she had already made friends again at the Chinese Academy of Chinese Studies.

In the eyes of these female classmates, Shen Ningning bullied others, and Xie Yuanjiu was not as thoughtful as her, so she was kicked out.

Several people were waiting to see Xie Yuanjiu feel proud.

At this moment, Ye Changyi's voice came from the door: "Master, we are here, the expression is ready!"

Xie Yuanjiu looked over and saw Shen Ningning following Ye Changyi. The little guy was wearing a brocade dress and small pearls on his head. He looked extremely cute and delicate.
