Do you really think you can get me with just a banana?

Guan Shanyu paused for a moment, and when he didn't hear the prompt from the mentally retarded system, he turned around and ran in the opposite direction, holding up the corner of his clothes.

If there is no hint, it means that this section does not have its own plot. It is better to have less trouble than more, so don't run into him.

Guan Shanyu ran forward madly on the dead leaves. After going around in a big circle and almost getting lost, he stopped panting.

The towering trees here blocked out the sun, and there were almost no disciples to be seen. When he calmed down, he could even hear their breathing clearly. He thought to himself that he had taken such a long detour, and it was impossible for him to run into a bullying scene again.

Guan Shanyu wiped the sweat off his forehead, dusted off the dust on his body, and began to walk down the mountain road calmly.

Just after taking a few steps, he seemed to catch a glimpse of a vague white figure in the corner of his eye. He was slightly startled and turned his head slowly with hesitation. After seeing the white figure clearly, Guan Shanyu almost vomited blood.

"Murphy, you bastard! I asked you to come up with Murphy's Law, and now you can actually run into this myself."

Guan Shanyu was so frightened that he froze in place. Just as he turned his head, he could see the faces of the young men clearly.

Aren’t they Hu Qi and the others? The person who was surrounded tightly among them, wasn’t he Yan Ruchen, who had an indomitable look on his face and was determined to never give in?

The arguing over there was getting louder and louder, and it seemed that this group of hot-blooded young men were about to start a fight in the next second.

Guan Shanyu lifted the corner of his clothes, turned carefully, and slowly stepped onto the stairs, trying not to step on the dead branches and leaves and make any noise to disturb them. However, Mr. Murphy's law was always correct. Just as his foot was raised in the air, a scolding voice came from behind him: "Hey! Guan Shanyu, you really came. I thought you would tip this guy off, right? What, do you want to help?"

Guan Shanyu broke out in a cold sweat, thinking to himself, "Look at me, I'm sneaking around trying to escape, but I don't look like I'm here to help." Suddenly, an idea struck him, and he whispered, "Hey, System, stop playing dead. Do I have a role in this scene?"

The voice replied, "No, in the original novel, Guan Shanyu pretended to be a witness and framed Yan Ruchen after he was ambushed by a fellow disciple, causing Yan Ruchen to be punished by being sent to a cold spring for meditation."

So, I shouldn't be here at this moment, but I came here early? It doesn't make sense. I didn't come here on purpose to find them. Instead, I deliberately took a detour because I was afraid of bumping into them. How did I end up encountering this scene first?

Guan Shanyu asked: "How far has the plot shifted now?"

System answer [13%]

Guan Shanyu's brows twitched, and he asked again: "What should I do now?"

System Answer: [The purpose of this plot is to have the real eyewitness, Si Hongyin, appear and help Yan Ruchen clear his name. Furthermore, after Yan Ruchen's unyielding character was punished by Leng Quan, she secretly developed a fondness for him, paving the way for the subsequent emotional drama.]

However, according to these young people, Si Hongyin seems to have fallen deeply in love with Yan Ruchen. Although the purpose is to develop the relationship between the male and female protagonists, in fact, in the development of this plot, the development process of the relationship line will directly affect the direction of the plot, so the order and depth of the relationship between the male and female protagonists are also very important.

So in this plot, he shouldn't have been present. He should have pretended to be a witness and framed Yan Ruchen when he was sent to Tianjian Pavilion for trial. However, he now appears here and becomes a real witness. In fact, the frame-up is more convincing. However, in order to advance the plot, he has to offend the male protagonist.

After thinking about it, Guan Shanyu knew what to do. He turned around and saw that the group of teenagers were still looking at him with dissatisfaction. So he did not leave, but walked towards them slowly, pretending not to know what they were doing and asked: "What a coincidence, what are you doing here?"

Hu Qi and the others were stunned. They had originally thought that Guan Shanyu was trying to ruin their plans, but they hadn't expected him to be deaf and dumb. So, he must be either an enemy or a friend. After thinking about it, one of the disciples said, "Yan Ruchen just broke Hu Qi's jade pendant, and we're asking him for an explanation."

"Yes, this is a relic left by Hu Qi's mother, and he just smashed it like that. I'm afraid it's because Hu Qi's behavior is rather unruly and he doesn't take his first place in the trial seriously, so he deliberately destroyed other people's things to vent his anger."

Guan Shanyu took a look at the ground and saw that the broken jade pendant on the grass was obviously a fake one. This was done to deceive Yan Ruchen, who had never seen any good things since he was a child.

It was given to him by Hu Qi's mother. She just made up a serious excuse to bully him. Even if he was brought before the elders of Tianjian Pavilion and successfully defended Yan Ruchen, he would not have to suffer any punishment because he had a legitimate reason. If Yan Ruchen failed to defend himself, destroying other people's belongings and being jealous of his fellow disciples were not minor crimes, and Yan Ruchen would have to suffer.

No matter what, this is a sure win bullying.

Guan Shanyu looked away as if unintentionally, then turned his gaze towards Yan Ruchen and said, "Really? Ruchen, how could you be so careless?"

It was obvious that Yan Ruchen had been beaten up. His snow-white robe had been kicked several times on the ground, and it was so gray and black that it was almost impossible to tell its original color. There were cuts on the corners of his mouth and eyes, and his hair, which had been neatly tied up, was now quite messy.

However, Hu Qi and the others didn't get much good either, as several of them had bruises on their faces. Yan Ruchen frowned, turned to look at Guan Shanyu and said defensively: "I didn't break it. I was practicing sword here, and they suddenly surrounded me, threw a jade pendant at my feet, and insisted that I broke it."

Hu Qi and the others were not convinced when they heard this and started to criticize: "Are you saying that we have no time to frame you? How can you be so prestigious that it is worth us going to such trouble?"

Yan Ruchen lowered his eyes slightly and said coldly: "Who knows?"

As soon as these words were spoken, several disciples were completely enraged. They drew their swords and shouted at Yan Ruchen, "Asshole, you son of a whore, what do you think you are? You just won first place in the selection and you dare to speak so rudely? Everyone knows that you cling to Si Hongyin's thighs and flatter her all day long to gain the elders' appreciation. Do you think anyone in the sect will obey you with such despicable means? Today, we will enforce justice on you, you scumbag!"

Guan Shanyu saw that things were not going well. Fighting was one thing, but drawing the sword was no joke. Even if no one was hurt, it would be bad if he hit the flowers and plants.

He raised his hand to stop the impulsive teenagers and said, "Everyone, please be patient. The sect has a rule that internal fighting is prohibited. If the elders find out, you will inevitably be punished."

After all, this is a sure-win business. If you draw your swords and start fighting, everyone will be in the wrong. Wouldn't it be better for you to all go together to soak in the cold spring and calm down?

Guan Shanyu pointed out the consequences of hurting the enemy by a thousand and hurting oneself by eight hundred. The others calmed down a little and slowly lowered their swords. Hu Qi said coldly, "Brother Shanyu, since you are willing to mediate, why don't you judge the situation? This person not only destroyed my mother's relics, but also spoke rudely here. What should I do?"

"That's right. They said they were practicing swords here. Everyone knows that this is Lingcaoxuan's territory. They are probably trying to steal the Ganoderma lucidum to eat. Brother Shanyu, please give us your opinion."

You also know that this is Lingcaoxuan's territory. They chose our place for conspiracy and fighting, and it is obvious that they want to drag us into it.

Guan Shanyu pretended to think for a moment, then said, "I understand that some of you are my and Yan Ruchen's senior brothers. The sect has rules that prohibit you from speaking disrespectfully to your elder brothers. You should respect, be diligent, and love your elder brothers. So, Ruchen, what you said just now was indeed wrong. You need to apologize to your senior brothers."

Yan Ruchen looked up at Guan Shanyu in a daze, but his eyes keenly caught the gloating expressions on the faces of Hu Qi and others. He knew in his heart that Guan Shanyu was not on his side, and he was probably not even neutral. He lowered his head with some self-mockery and sadness, thinking that this unexpected disaster today was unavoidable.

Guan Shanyu saw Yan Ruchen's face was covered with dark clouds. He knew that he was wronged but did not dare to refute it. He bit his lip, lowered his head and his eyes were red. He looked very pitiful. His heart tightened, and he thought for a moment and said:

"However, the sect has its own rules. Novice disciples who have just entered the sect often do not understand the etiquette and rules. Elders should teach them patiently and guide them step by step. They should not speak harshly and undermine the disciples' confidence. Therefore, everyone... what you said to Ruchen just now was indeed inappropriate."

Hearing this, Yan Ruchen did not look up again and clenched his hands tightly.

Seeing that Guan Shanyu's analysis was really logical, Hu Qi and others found it somewhat amusing that he was also a junior disciple who would go to the fields to grow vegetables all day long. They thought that he was on their side and that was why they asked him to judge. He really thought he was so important that he even dared to bring out the sect's rules to suppress them. It was really ridiculous.

Guan Shanyu saw that they looked unhappy and knew that they would not appreciate his words, but the most urgent thing was not to be too serious about it, the key point was to follow the plot.

He straightened his back and walked towards Hu Qi and the others, suggesting: "But I am only a beginner vegetable-growing disciple. This matter is definitely not for me to judge. Hu Qi's jade pendant is naturally important, so why don't we go to the elders - damn it!"

Before he could finish his words, a cool tree root that had grown out of nowhere in the ground tripped Guan Shanyu.
