Fighter of the Destiny

The conversation by the lake went like this.

Tang Sanliu looked at the iron-like black hair faintly visible on Xuanyuan Po's right arm and asked, Bear?

Xuanyuan Po glanced at him, knowing that he meant no harm, and said, Bear.

Tang Thirty-Six snorted and said, It is indeed a bear.

Xuanyuan Po thought about the difference between a bear and a bear seriously, and confirmed that he was laughing at him, and said, Tang Sanji, you are not a good person.

Tang Sanliu's face turned a little ugly and he said, I told you, don't call me Tang Sanjiu.

Xuanyuan Po was very insistent: Tang Sanji, didn't you just say how many names you have on the Qingyun Ranking?

It's about motivating yourself.

Tang Sanshiliu explained that at the same time, he was determined to work hard during the imperial examination and strive to get Qingyun into the top ten when the rankings were changed again.

Xuanyuan Po said, You don't like the name Tang Tang either.

Tang Sanshiliu said: It's too much like a girl's name.

Xuanyuan Po's eyes fell on his chest and said, A person as bitter and mean as you, if it weren't for Taiping, would be easily suspected of being a woman.

After saying this, he carried half of the broken tree and walked towards the kitchen, ignoring Tang Sanliu again.

This boring conversation ended with the victory of the demon boy.

While they were talking, Chen Changsheng was running quickly in the snow not far away.

He walked very fast, and there was a cold wind accompanying him as he walked. Naturally, he was not walking or digesting food, but practicing. Although it was a bit inexplicable, he should have passed the marrow cleansing stage, and the true energy began to flow in his body. , but the meridians problem still cannot be solved - fortunately, he has been prepared for this aspect, and the progress of Luo Luo and Xuanyuan Po proves that his idea is correct.

The problem is that his amount of real energy is too scarce, and he doesn't dare to risk setting fire to a snowfield before the imperial examination. If he wants to make a difference, he needs to think of other ways, such as making full use of his body's energy to generate energy. Those changes - he now has power that exceeds that of ordinary monsters, and has unimaginable speed and strength.

In the end, he decided to place his hope on Shen Dharma, so he decided to continue studying the Yashi Steps.

Yeshibu is a secret that is not passed down by the demons. He has read the Dao Zang thoroughly and has some understanding of it. He can memorize thousands of directions and even taught Luoluo some simplified versions. He shocked everyone at the Ivy Banquet - but At that time, Guan Feibai's sword had no real essence attached to it. If he wanted to defeat those practitioners in the imperial examination, just relying on the simplified version of Yeshibu was not enough.

On the snow, there are all densely packed with his footprints. Before being covered up by the wind and snow again, they are woven into various patterns, sometimes simple, sometimes complex. If the snow clouds in the sky disperse and people look up at the stars, they will probably Be able to find connections between these patterns and the sky full of stars.

At this moment, the carriage of the Cardinal Office arrived at the National Education College, and Reverend Xin came to visit.

Chen Changsheng and Tang Sanshiliu were a little surprised. The registration process for the Great Imperial Examination has already been completed, and it was all handled by Priest Xin. The Academic Affairs Office even secretly sent a copy of the information of the other applicants to the National Education College. Logically speaking, this is what should be done. He had already done it, and the imperial examination was about to begin, so why did he come to the Chinese Academy of Education? Aren't you afraid of causing some criticism?

Jin Yulu held the teapot, looked at the two teenagers and shook his head, thinking that they were indeed good boys who didn't understand such things.

Master Xin explained his purpose. It turned out that there was something missing in the registration information, and Chen Changsheng needed to take out the roster and seal to confirm again.

After finishing this matter, Priest Xin did not leave immediately.

Chen Changsheng asked Xuanyuan Po to bring him a cup of good tea to express his gratitude.

Priest Xin was holding tea but not drinking it. He walked out of the library, stood in the snow by the lake, looked at the other side, and suddenly said something: To reach the other side, you really need supreme wisdom.

After he finished sighing, he put the tea back into Xuanyuan Po's hand, looked at everyone and smiled, and then left the National Education Academy in a carriage.

Chen Changsheng and the other three were a little confused and didn't know what Reverend Xin meant by doing this.

The other side is what the Buddhist sect says. The Buddhist sect has been in decline for thousands of years and is rarely mentioned. Is this sentence of Master Xin purely out of emotion, or does it have some profound meaning?

How come this guy suddenly likes to express his thoughts? Tang Sanliu said.

Jin Yulu couldn't bear it any longer and cursed: Idiot, you can't even spot such an obvious missed question?

Ah? Xuanyuan Po opened his mouth, wondering where the question was?

Chen Changsheng and Tang Sanliu looked at each other, thinking that adults are really unreliable. Can't such an important matter be made clearer?

The Imperial Examination is divided into three parts: literary test, martial arts test and battle. The care of the Imperial Education Academy by the Academic Council basically falls on Chen Changsheng. According to his specific situation, there is no need to worry about the literary test at all. The battle is based on It's about strength, there's no question, so the question that Reverend Xin came here to ask about should happen in the martial arts test.

Crossing the lake?

Tang Thirty-Six walked to the lakeside, stood on half of the lake rocks that had been smashed by Xuanyuan Po, looked at the other shore dozens of feet away, and said with some confusion, This is very simple.

It's difficult for me to go there by myself. Xuanyuan Po turned back to look at Chen Changsheng and said, But it's very easy for me to throw the stone to the other side.

Chen Changsheng understood what he meant and did not answer. After a moment of silence, he said, I have to think about it.

…

…

The tree Xuanyuan Po smashed was too thick and difficult to chop into firewood. Jin Yulu suddenly became interested, so he lit the whole half of the tree on fire, and then hung a black deer that Luo Luo had sent from the palace on top. Roasted deer is a domineering thing to eat, and the fat flows across it. It is very popular in the National Education Academy. Soon he was enveloped in the aroma of meat.

Xuanyuan Po stood next to the roasted deer, waiting for the meat to be cooked without blinking an eye. Tang Sansliu held a knife in one hand and a plate in the other, his throat moving from time to time. Only Chen Changsheng was not by the campfire, even if the imperial court The trial was coming soon, and he didn't relax at all. He strictly implemented his principles. How could he eat unhealthy food like barbecue?

He was still sprinting in the snow by the lake, using his body's memory to turn the footwork of Yeshibu into his own instinct - the question Reverend Xin leaked was not difficult for him. He now has at least three There is a way to cross the lake, but that will expose his background and be detrimental to the final battle, so he is still thinking of other ways.

I don’t know how long it took, but the venison was roasted. Xuanyuan Po shouted to him a few times in the snow on the other side. He waved his hand to express that he really didn’t want to eat it, and then he saw Xuanyuan Po start using his hands. After tearing the meat, Tang Sanliu began to cut the meat with a knife. Jin Yulu took out a jar of good wine, but refused to share it with the two teenagers.

Chen Changsheng shook his head, wondering what good things like wine and meat are... However, beef tongue is indeed delicious. Thinking of these trivial things, he climbed up the big banyan tree, stood at the front of the branch, and looked at After the snow stopped, the white house with black eaves in Kyoto held my waist and was silent for a long time.

Outside Kyoto, there should be thousands of miles of snow fields at this time.

There are also thousands of miles of snowy fields in his body.

Maybe it's in the palm of his hand.

Those snowfields are full of starlight, which can be converted into countless true energy at any time.

Although he didn't dare to touch those stars now, knowing that those stars existed made him feel much more at ease.

He is now like a noble man with countless wealth. He only has a few coins left on his body, but he dare not open the package containing one hundred thousand taels of silver notes because there is a devil in the package. When you open the package, , the demon will also run out.

If he were an ordinary person in this situation, he would have gone crazy, but he was very calm.

Yes, it's better than nothing.

Having a hundred thousand guan in your pocket, even if you can't spend it, is still something to be happy about.

He stood on a branch and looked at the city of Kyoto in the snow, feeling very happy.

But the well in Beixinqiao was blocked, which made him a little worried.

At this moment, a white smoke was suddenly brought out from the snow cloud in the distance.

At the forefront of the white smoke is a pure white crane.

There were several clear crane calls, and the white crane flapped its wings like snow and landed on the branch, making the branch sink slightly.

It returned from the Southern Changsheng Sect and brought a reply from Xu Yourong.

Chen Changsheng remembered that the letter he personally wrote to Xu Yourong was a long time ago. He was a little puzzled as to why it took so long for the other party to reply to the letter. He was also a little curious about what she would say in the letter. It was better not to misunderstand or to take care of himself. Or give yourself a banknote?

Well, he admitted that the last imagination was too malicious and she shouldn't be able to do such a thing.

Untying the letter from Bai He, he opened it and began to read, then remained silent for a long time.

In the letter, Xu Yourong mentioned the Ivy Banquet, congratulated him, mentioned the Imperial Examination, expressed her blessings to him, and said that Nanxi Zhai had some matters to deal with this year, so she would not return to Kyoto to participate in the Imperial Examination. Chen She had no way of meeting Changsheng's request for an interview mentioned in his previous letter.

Finally, she mentioned Bai He and asked him what he had done to make Bai He be so close to him. She also said not to misunderstand, she was just curious about this matter and had no other meaning. She also said that she heard that you were going to take the imperial examination. She ranked first in the test. It was not convenient for her to comment on this, so she asked him to take care of himself.

very good.

Don't get me wrong, take care of yourself.

Both words are there.

Chen Changsheng shook his head, crumpled the letter into a paper ball, and was about to throw it into the crack in the ice under the tree that was broken by Xuanyuan Po. Unexpectedly, Bai He stared at him closely, so he had to put the paper ball into his arms.

Thinking about what Xu Yourong asked in the letter, he felt very grateful to Bai He and touched its neck affectionately.

He suddenly thought of something and said to Bai He: Can you stay in Kyoto for a few more days?

…

…

Winter has just passed, but the spring has not really returned to the earth. In the streets and alleys of Kyoto, there are still plum branches sticking out of the walls, not peach blossoms. There are only a few buds of green among the branches, and there are no complete green leaves at all, just like what is often seen in the morning. It was like mist, the world was still green and hazy, and the imperial examination began.

…
